This is Touhara Naoya. I brought him here from the Realm of Man.
A human male...
You really managed to bring one here?
Indeed.
Anyway, once I've interviewed him,
you shall meet him.
No...
Your Highness stated that she'd be fine...
..."sucking off a human male", did you not?
I don't think I went as far as saying that!
Oh, really?
I'll call for you to come down shortly, so make sure you're presentable.
This sucks.

The First Semicolon
This tea is delicious.
The milk gives it an extremely mellow flavour.
It's really good.
Um, Miss...
I'm the head housemaid, Elfreda.
Please call me Effie.
I'm glad you've taken a liking to it.
Nice to meet you...
Sorry for the wait.
Welcome to the Creature Realm and to Ygvarland.
I'm the head lady-in-waiting, Judit Snorrevik.
Well, I say "lady-in-waiting",
but Olaf's the only man who works here,
so I act more like Her Highness's right-hand man.
I didn't anticipate your reaction, though.
You don't seem worried or surprised at all, Naoya-dono.
Well, it's not as though I haven't been taken aback by all of it...
I'm just really good at adapting to situations.
Ever since I was young, I've found myself getting into unexpected or weird situations.
I have to admit, I was a little startled, though.
I never imagined that that tree in the park would lead to a world like this.
Monthly pay: 500,000!
200,000 more!
Raise it up some!
Hey, Asuha!
Split the difference! 60!
We'll take the job!
What?!
Sign: Negotiation Complete
You've got yourself a deal!
Thanks!
Anyway, I'll be going to school at the beach!
Wait a second, Asuha!
Put some underwear on!
I have my backpack on!
I said underwear!
You have quite an interesting little sister.
I, um...
Now, then. How about I show you the way?
Huh?
Ymir's breath and the flapping of Hræsvelgr's wings:
Guide the children of Heimdallr.
The Norns of Urðarbrunnr: Urðr, Skuld and Verðandi...
U-Um...
What will I be doing?
Guide us to the land of the Light-
Be quiet!
I-I'm sorry!
Judit!
The gate opened.
What is this?
It felt like we got thrown through... I didn't enjoy it one bit.
Really?
I thought it was a bit like a roller coaster. I kind of liked it.
But how exactly did the gate open?
U-Um...
Yes?
About my work...
Oh, that's right. We haven't discussed it yet.
You will be...
Just thinking about it grosses me out.
Please hang in there!
Are you really going to meet him, Princess?
If I turn him down right off the bat,
it's going to escalate into a huge fight with Judit, and that'll be a pain.
I'll come up with a plan.
A plan?
That's right.
I'll make it so she won't be able to bring any more males here in the future.
I see...
She's here.
The first princess of Ygvarland,
Her Royal Highness, Astarotte Ygvar.
What was that?
Your name's Naoya, right?
Y-Yes, ma'am.
This may seem a bit sudden,
but I request your presence with me tonight.
A-Are you serious, Princess?
Absolutely.
Princess!
What did she mean by "presence"?
Asuha, wait up!
Hurry up!
I'm going to leave you behind!
You're too fast!
Come on!
So with that said...
Princess Astarotte is a succubus, which means in a few years time,
she'll mature to the point where her body requires life-seed from others.
I-I see...
S-So, it'll be the duty of the harem to provide her with this life-seed,
and that's what my job entails, right?
That's correct.
But she hasn't yet matured to the point where she requires life-seed, has she?
The princess hates men, but has requested for your presence specifically.
I'm sure she's using this opportunity to master her fear.
If that is what's going through her mind,
then we cannot afford to miss this chance.
But... the princess is still pretty young. I'd be...
To extract life-seed from someone, you start by...
...sucking it from their lips.
Sign: Suck it out.
S-Sucking...
Good work, Princess.
Lotte-sama, why don't we eat outside today?
S-Sure.
This place gets cell phone reception?
Three whole bars at that...

The beach is awesome!
I'm having so much fun here!
Well, she's having a good time.
That's nice.
Naoya-dono.
You're...?
Olaf, the butler. At your service.
Olaf-san, what's the princess like?
The princess is a kind soul.
She's a bit cynical and selfish at times,
but she's soft at heart.
Why did the princess start hating men?
Did something trigger that hatred?
Trigger that hatred...
Back when she was still living with her mother, the queen,
there was a night where the queen promised she would sleep with her.
I'll go with you.
No! I'll go by myself and surprise her!
Oh, is that what you're up to?
Be careful, then.
Okay.
One of the men from her harem came to visit her that night,
even though he wasn't sent for.
What? Why is there a kid up this late?
I...
Sorry, she's seeing me first.
The queen then committed the act,
not knowing the princess was there as well.
The princess started to hate men soon afterwards,
and eventually, she and the Queen grew apart.
She left the castle and started living here, on the outskirts of the kingdom.
And that's what happened.
Naoya-sama, the princess needs warmth.
It is a warmth that we cannot provide.
Please take care of the princess.
Olaf-san...
I'm not sure of how much use I'll be, but I'll try my best.
I can't believe that the Princess would go out of her way and ask to speak with you.
Y-Yes.
There's something fishy about this.
The princess is waiting inside. Please go in.
I'm coming in.
What are you doing?!
What? I'm sorry!
That was my milk! I can't believe it!
If I don't have hot milk, I can't go to bed!
I don't know how well things will go tonight now that this has happened!
So that was your plan all along, was it?
You think a silly little trick like that's going to work?
But it's true that I can't go to bed without milk.
That's no excuse!
I understand!
Huh?
Naoya-dono?
I wasn't paying attention, so I'm to blame.
I'll get you you some more milk immediately.
That kid's got spunk.
Astarotte no Omocha!
This isn't the right milk, either.
I just can't find milk with the right flavour.
I wonder if they even sell it in this town.
Sorry for making you come with me, Effie-san.
No, it's okay.
I wasn't sure I'd be able to find milk that tasted like that.
What did you say the brand was again?
A+ Julusey Milk, made in Eplitrey.
Yeah, that's the one.
It must be pretty special milk.
I wouldn't know...
Lotte-sama, I can't do this any more!
Listen, Effie.
Make sure you don't tell him where we buy our milk.
Y-Yes, ma'am.
Man, I drank way too much milk.
Why are you doing so much for Lotte-sama?
What do you mean?
I-I mean, is it because you want Lotte-sama to suck out your life-seed?
S-Suck- No!
Then, why?
I-I was talking to Olaf-san,
and he told me she left her mother's side at a young age.
I think the princess has been lonely ever since then.
I don't think the princess needs someone...
...to accompany her at night, or anything like that.
I don't know what it is that she needs yet,
but if there's something out there that'll make her happy,
I'd like to give that to her.
The milk tea I had back at the estate was really warm,
and I felt like it was warming my heart.
I think the princess needs something like that.
I still can't find the milk for it, though.
Naoya-san...
Yes?
Thank you.
Why are you thanking me, Effie-san?
How about we head back now, Naoya-san?
But we still haven't...
Effie-san, welcome back.
Thanks.
Cu, could you help me for a second?
Huh?
What are you doing?
Could you wait outside for a moment?
I'll be done shortly.
Sure. Got you.
There we go.
Sh-She can't be...

What was that?
He got the milk?
That's right.
Good going, Naoya-dono.
I bet he did something underhanded!
I bet he threatened Effie and forced her to give it to him,
without letting her say a word!
Men are all selfish!
Zelda, this is an order.
The second a man enters my room tonight,
I order you to remove his head!
Princess!
Are you serious?
No matter what method he used,
Naoya-dono has fulfilled his promise to you.
It seems I said too much.
I understand.
I'll talk to him.
Please do.
But if he tries anything indecent, subdue him!
Yes, ma'am!
Isn't it great that you got Lotte-sama's approval?
It's all thanks to you, Effie-san.
I didn't do anything.
Are these photos from when the princess was younger?
Yes.
It kind of reminds me of when Asuha was a child.
Um, Effie-san?
Yes?
Is this stuffed animal the princess's favourite?
It is.
She's slept with it since she was a young child.
But if I remember correctly, she lost it one day...
...and got really depressed about it.
I see.
Is something the matter?
Effie-san, there's something I'd like to borrow for a bit, if you'll let me.
S-Sure. What is it?
Princess, it's Naoya.
Show him in.
Is this...
It's pretty badly made, but I heard you like these.
Did you make it?
I did.
I don't need it.
Why should I get something like that from you?
I see...
How about we do this, then?
Hm?
Take your pick:
Would you rather spend the night with me or this reindeer?
Which one will it be?
The reindeer, of course.
I couldn't spend a night with a man.
I understand.
That's too bad.
I'll take my leave, then.
Good night.
What was that all about?
What a weird guy.
I wonder if I made things worse.
Girls are difficult to understand.
Maybe I should ask Asuha for help.
No Service
Huh? No reception?
No Reception
He's using this toy to try and get me to like him.
A toy...
Please come in.
Excuse the intrusion.
Good morning, Naoya-dono.
G-Good morning.
The princess said that she would make you into an official candidate...
...for her harem this morning.
Huh?
Here are the conditions:
Room and board, plus clothing, will be provided.
Your monthly salary is gems and precious metals to the equivalent value of 500,000-
No, 600,000 units of human currency.
I see.
However, your official rank while you are a candidate will be...
..."Toy."
Toy
Huh?
Are there any questions?
No.
I accept the terms.
I'm glad to accept.
