Monster Girl Isekai

'''Subaru Iwatani thought his life was going relatively well at age 16. He had some friends that he hung out with at school, he had a smooth relationship with his family, and his current biggest struggle was figuring out where he was going to go to university after finishing high school. But all that vanished in an instant. Running through the streets, as rain pounded the pavement. Thunder rumbled across the sky, then a flash of light, a moment of blinding pain, and he fell over dead. Cause of death: Cardiac Arrest due to being struck by lighting. Family, friends and classmates attended his funeral, many struck with grief at his passing. But Subaru was completely unaware, as he opened his eyes, and found himself in a black void. He stood up. “What’s going on? Am I dead? Is this the afterlife?” His final memories flashed through his head. “Oh my god. Struck by lightning. Of all the things to happen to me. Mom, Dad. Bro, I’m sorry”. '''

'''“Subaru! All is not lost!” A woman’s voice broke the silence and he looked up to see a beautiful woman, hanging in the air before him. She wore white clothing, a halo over her head and a pair of wings on her back. '''

'''“Ah! Woah, are you a goddess?”'''

'''“Something of that nature. My name is Miria. I am sorry for your recent misfortune. But I am here to give you a second chance at life. You will be reincarnated into a different world, with all the memories of your former life. I will leave it up to you to choose where you want to go”.'''

'''“Jeez, this is just like those stories my friends were telling me about. I never really watched much tv. So what kind of world can I travel to?” '''

'''“Well if you want to find out about all your options…” She produced a book, and dropped it at his feet. Subaru lifted the cover, and found a table of contents on the first page. The pages numbered in the thousands. '''

'''“Uh, this is kind of a lot to process. Is there any way that you could send me back home? I want to see my family again”. '''

'''“I’m sorry Subaru. You have already passed away in your own world, so it’s only possible to continue your life in another world”. She gave him a sympathetic look. “Is there any kind of goal you wanted to pursue? That might let you decide where you want to go”. Subaru paused, and thought about what he had wanted to do in his previous life. But an idea crept up on him and it wouldn't go away. '''

'''“Miria...In my past life I um... I wasn’t very good at talking to girls!” He shouted, to which Miria responded with a small smile. '''

'''“How forward! Will that be the goal that decides where you want to go next?”'''

'''“Yes! I want to travel to a world that allows me to meet and have relationships with pretty girls!”'''

'''“Let me show you what you have available to you”. She took the heavy book and replaced it with a smaller one. It had several hundred pages but it was much more manageable to read. He flipped through pages, finding them full of pictures of men and women in lewd positions.'''

“Are these just a bunch of porn settings?”

'''“Well, yes. You could travel to other fantasy worlds and meet girls there, but I thought these choices would give you the most direct route”.'''

“Er, can I take my time to look at this book?”

'''“Certainly. You won’t have to worry about eating or sleeping while you’re here. I will have to leave to help other people but I’ll leave you the means to make your own choice about where you want to go. Just pick the world from this book and say, ‘send me to this world’. Happy hunting!” She vanished. Subaru started to look through the book. There were dozens of worlds, some with pages upon pages of description, some with only a few paragraphs. His head spun at some of their descriptions, worlds full of nothing but '''

'''“Tentacles? A whole world of tentacle porn? Oh nononono I gotta find something else”, as he thumbed through more pages, he stopped at the sight of a demonic looking woman with horns, wings and a tail. “A succubus? That sounds much better.Yeah, I want some place that’s more general. Looks like a world full of monster girls, all looking to have sex with human men?” He’d never thought about inhuman women, but this world was starting to look a lot more appealing than others. “Alright, I think-send me to this world!” He pointed to the page, and vanished, the book dropping to the ground. Later, Miria returned to find her client was gone. '''

'''“I wonder where he decided to go?” She picked up the book, using her magic to find the page where Suabru had left. “Hm, the Monster Girl Encyclopedia…” Not a bad choice for someone interested in sex but, where did it send him?” She flipped through the pages, trying to find more information on the world’s locales. “Ugh! This author is so half-hearted in his world building!” --- Subaru opened his eyes. The first thing he noticed was that he was sitting on the ground, on a hard street of cobblestones. He seemed to be sitting in the middle of a small town, full of small wooden houses and other buildings. The second thing he noticed was that he was sitting with a large group of men, and that he and every one of them had their hands held behind them, bounded with thick ropes. He started to worry. This wasn’t quite how he had imagined his debut. He looked to the man sitting next to him, hoping that he could communicate. '''

'''“H-hey, what’s going on? Who tied us up?” The man looked at him, a weary expression on his face.'''

'''“I’m sorry you had to get caught up in all this, Son. We got ambushed by a bunch of Dark Elves. They’re taking all the men in the area as slaves, but I didn’t think they were going to take kids like you”. '''

'''“Slaves?” He trembled. This was all wrong.'''

'''“Yeah, for labor, for breeding. Or sell us to other monsters to do with what they want”. Subaru began to panic. This wasn’t what he bargained for. He watched as a group of women and girls all stepped into sight. They looked like humans with dark brown skin, but they had pointy elf ears. More importantly, they were dressed in tight leather outfits, stockings and heels, and most carried whips by their sides. '''

'''“Alright, men. On your feet and into the carts. We have lots of customers who are excited to meet you!” One of the women was speaking from the center of the group. They were pulled to their feet, and marched into the covered wagons which waited outside the town. The wagons rolled away, no way to tell where they were going. He sat there, trying to be as quiet and unassuming as possible. One of his fellow captives demanded to know where they were going, and received a smack for his trouble. They came to a stop, and they were herded into a building. Here they were separated, and Subaru found himself following one of the girls, down a cold stone passage and into a holding cell with some sort of stone table. He almost asked what was going to happen, when his captor spoke up.'''

'''“Now lay down on the table”. He complied, as she undid his binds. Subaru saw his chance and ran, past the surprised girl and down the hall. But he stopped when he came to a heavy iron door. He pushed but it wouldn’t budge. He turned, hearing the click of the gir’s heels on the stone floor as she rounded the corner and smirked at him. Whap! Her whip flicked out and struck his arm. “Naughty boy. There’s nowhere for you to run. Now come back, there’s no way you’re going to get past that door”. He paused, but she reached slowly for her whip and he hurried after her. Returning to the cell, he lay on the hard stone pedestal, his arms and legs spread out and chained. As the girl leaned over, staring into his eyes, she leered. “Now then, time for some punishment”. Subaru couldn’t help it. He burst into tears, sobbing in the cell at this final threat from the dark elf. She dropped her leer, and her expression softened.'''

'''“Oh dear, my poor boy. I didn’t mean to make you cry, I just wanted to scare you a little for trying to run away. Hey, come on”, she put her hand on his cheek and felt him flinch. But she just wiped a few tears from his eyes. Then she leaned over and kissed him on the forehead. Subaru continued to cry, but it slowed, and he managed to stop. He took a deep breath. “Are you feeling better?” The elf asked. '''

'''“I-I think so”, he said shakily. And he had also heard the words of Miria echoing in his head. ‘Subaru! I hope you landed somewhere safe, but it’s really hard to determine where you landed because there’s so little information about the setting. So I’m going to give you one more thing. It’s a charm spell that you can use, just once by making eye contact. I hope it serves you well. Good luck!”'''

'''“Now then, I promise that we’ll find a monster just right for you, one who will take good care of you, ok?” She said, patting his head. But Subaru wasn’t so sure what would happen. That man had told him about how monsters treated men, and now he didn’t know what to believe. I think my best chance is to charm this girl so she can get me out of here! He tried to figure out how to use a spell. It had to be from making eye contact. '''

'''“Um, miss? Could you answer one question for me?”'''

'''“Of course, what do you want to know?” She said, turning around and giving him a much kinder smile than before. '''

'''“Will you, um. Let me out of these chains?” He asked, trying to will her into doing his bidding. She smiled. '''

'''“Well, not right away but as soon as we-MMM!” She gasped ,mid sentence, clutching her chest and painting. Her heart was thundering in her chest. “Oh, I don’t think I can do that”, she murmured, as she stepped closer. “You’re far too cute to let out of my clutches”. She climbed up on the pedestal and straddled his waste, leaning over to lay on top of him. She kissed him, clutching his head so she could hold him as close as possible. Subaru couldn’t believe how good it felt, her tongue teasing his, he swallowed some of her saliva, and she separated, her face slack with bliss as she leaned in for more. When she broke again, he shouted out, '''

'''“Hey, could we do this later? What if someone finds us and wants to separate us?”'''

'''“You’re right, darling. We have to get out of here now”. She untied him, and took his hand, leading him out the same hall. “Ah, my name’s Alicia. And what can I call you, sweetheart?”'''

'''“I’m Subaru”. '''

'''“Well, Subaru. I can promise you that we have a long and wonderful future ahead of us. As soon as we get out of here”. She unlocked the iron door and stuck her head out. '''

“How well can you run?”

'''“Oh, I’ve gotten a lot of practice, so I can run for a while, just not sure how fast”. '''

'''“As soon as I give the signal, we have to go”. Her grip tightened, and she looked around. “Now!” She bolted, and he found himself pulled along behind her. There were no alarms or shouts, but she continued at the breakneck pace until they ducked into the forest. She led him around trees and over logs and rocks, slowing her pace until it was a more comfortable jog. He couldn’t figure out how she was running in those heels. The daylight was fading when they emerged from the treeline at the exact same town that he’d started at. They snuck past the houses, but Alicia found one with its lights off and doors wide open. '''

'''“This must have been abandoned from all the inhabitants being taken. We’ll spend the night here, then leave early tomorrow. Oh, I wish we could find a place to settle down, but we need to put some more distance from the rest of my brethren”. They crept inside, finding all the rooms empty. Then they raided the fridge. “Eat up, darling. I want you to be as strong as you can for tonight. The best defense against other monsters is to be married to another”. When they finished eating and preparing some supplies, Alicia led Subaru to the bed, where she immediately resumed kissing him. '''

“Uh, Alicia?” Subaru managed to say, “I don’t really have much experience in this area…”

'''“Is that so?” She asked. “Well then, let me do the honor of teaching you the basics”. She pulled off her scant clothing, exposing her breasts, dark nipples sticking out. Subaru couldn’t stop staring at them. She then put her hands on his sides and tickled.'''

'''“Gah! Ha ha ha ha-” he laughed, and she pulled his shirt over his head. Alicia undid his shorts, seeing a bulge just underneath his underwear. '''

'''“Oh, this is going to be so much fun…” she whispered, pressing her chest against his. “I want you so badly, Subaru. How do you feel about me?”'''

'''“You’re the most beautiful girl I’ve ever met”, he said. She smiled and captured his lips, undoing the last layers of clothing either of them had, and engulfing him in a world of pleasure. She kept him going longer than he ever thought possible. ---'''

'''Subaru opened his eyes to a kiss from Alicia, still laying on top of him where they had fallen asleep. “Darling, that was very good for your first time. And so much better for me. Now, we need to be out of here before the sun is up. You do your best to clean yourself up, get our supplies, and I’ll meet you by the door”. He nodded, standing up and stumbling a bit. He pulled his clothes on, and walked into the other room where their supplies had been collected. Alicia joined him after a few minutes. They crept out of the door, through the street and out onto a small road on the opposite end of town. “This should lead us to the next town, we can rest easier when we get there”. They spent the day traveling at a brisk pace, resting (and making more love) at night. After a few days, they arrived in a different town. '''

“How far do you think they’ll follow us for?” Subaru asked.

'''“Well, truthfully, we managed to get out without anyone noticing us. So we might have been safe back in the previous town. But I wanted to give us a bit more space, just to be safe”. She took his hand, leading him to an inn. “One room for the night, please”. She paid with a few coins from a purse, and the man gave them a key. When they got inside, Subaru dropped his pack and collapsed on the bed. '''

“I’m exhausted!” His stomach growled.

“Why don’t you rest, and I’ll fix us something to eat?” Alicia suggested.

'''“Sounds good to me,” he mumbled. --- Subaru opened his eyes. Alicia was kissing him, and it felt so good. But he tried to reach for her, and found his hands were tied and held above his head. “HMM?” His cry was stifled by her mouth. She parted, holding her face just centimeters from his own. '''

'''“Subaru, darling”, she murmured into his ear, “I don’t want to hurt you. But I do want you to answer a few of my questions. And depending on how much you cooperate…” she pressed her bare chest against his, her hand groping his crotch, “I can reward you”, she ran her hands up his sides, near where his arms were raised above his head, “Or punish you”. '''

'''“I promise I can explain! I was sent to this world after dying in an accident!” She stared at him, and as his eyes adjusted to the darkness, he could see her eyes were glowing an eerie red. '''

'''“Sent here? How? And by whom?”'''

'''“She was some sort of angel or maybe a goddess. She said I was going to be given another chance at life, and I decided I wanted to go somewhere that would let me have relationships with girls”.'''

'''“Well, you certainly chose the right kind of place. But how did you manage that charm spell? Were you trained in magic in your previous life?”'''

'''“No, there was no magic in my own world. The lady who sent me here gave it to me and I didn’t know what was going to happen to me, so I decided it was the only way I could get out of that prison”.'''

'''“Hmmm. I think I choose to believe you. Now let me clarify something. We monsters want nothing more than to love and cherish men, and make families with them. Every one of those men were going to be sent to live with a monster who would take care of him in whatever way she saw fit. But I guess you’ll be my responsibility now”. She kissed him again. '''

'''“Alicia, I don’t know what other kinds of monsters I could have encountered, but I’m not the least bit unsatisfied. I want to spend the rest of my life with you!”'''

'''“Goooood”, she cooed. “And now, it’s time to reward your cooperation”. --- Leaving the inn the following morning, they spent a little time browning the small shop, and headed down the road further in the direction they’d been traveling. “Since neither of us has anywhere to go, I think it would be good for us to travel until we find a more suitable place to stay. There’s a lot of places I think you’ll enjoy”. '''

'''“Sounds like a deal to me”, Subaru replied, happy to follow Alicia wherever she went. At noon, they stopped and set up a place to rest and eat. '''

'''“I want you to cook us something for lunch”, she demanded. '''

“Hey, what’s with your tone?”

'''“Silly, as a dark elf it’s your job to do what I tell you”, she said. “Besides, if you do a good job I’ll reward you”. ‘We’ll see about that,’ he muttered, preparing a pot of stew. When Alicia tried a bite, she smacked her lips and devoured the serving. “My word that’s the best thing I’ve ever tasted! You must have a knack for cooking! I’ll have to show my appreciation tonight”. They spent the next few days in this manner, Alicia ordering Subaru to do the work, and he put up with it for a few days. But as he was cooking lunch, Alicia sitting on a rock and watching him, something moved from beyond the trees. She stood up. “Careful darling, I think we’re under attack!” He turned to see where she was staring, when a blue light appeared in front of him. Alicia tried to whip it, but the whip passed right through the ball of blue fire. A girl emerged from the forest, dressed in a kimono. She had fox ears on top of her head, and he counted four tails sprouting from her rear. '''

'''“Husband”, she breathed, as she approached him, her arms wrapped around his body. Alicia tried to separate them, but the girl shot another ball of fire, and she had to dodge it. “I’m sorry that it took so long for me to find you,” she said as she stared into Subaru’s eyes. “I’m Mai, and it’s a pleasure to meet you. What can I call you, darling?”'''

'''“Subaru,” he said, captivated by her charm. She was almost the opposite of Alician, dressed modestly with a gentle aura. Her tails brushed against his legs, and she reached up to cup his cheek, smiling softly.'''

'''“Wait, sweetheart, you won’t just leave me will you? And you, taking my husband!”'''

'''“This sweet young man was never yours to begin with”, Mai said, casting a scornful look towards Alicia. “A young teenage boy, unknown origin, taken with the rest of the village men. Appears to be of Zipangu ancestry, and intimidated by his meeting with the dark elves. So they told me that I would make a fine candidate, and I was going to take you home with me the next day. But then they told me you’d disappeared with another of their kind. I was so mad that I followed you and lucky for me, it wasn’t too hard to track you. Now Subaru, why don’t you come home with me? This awful woman just wants to use you as her slave, to do her work and give her children, which will do the same thing. I’ll take care of you like a good wife should”. Subaru tried to think about what Mai was telling him. '''

'''“She was asking me to do all the work”, he said to himself. '''

'''“You see? She’s clearly a poor match for you”. But when he looked over, he saw that Alicia had started to cry.'''

'''“Sweetheart, I...ok, I did want to make you work for me. But I love you, I do! I want to have your children, and raise a family, just as much as any monster! I know it’s not the same as other monsters might but please, believe me that I love you just as much as Mai would!” Subaru let go of Mai, and walked over to where Alicia sat.'''

'''“Honey, what are you doing? Don’t let those crocodile tears fool you”. Subaru knelt down, placed his hand on Alicia’s cheek, and brushed a few tears from her eyes. '''

“Alicia?” 

'''“Hm?” She sniffed. '''

'''“When you took me into that cell, I was so scared, but when you saw that I was crying, you comforted me. I meant what I said. I don’t want to leave you. I care for you too much”. '''

'''“But darling, hasn’t she taken advantage of you?” Mai protested. '''

'''“Maybe. But I believe what she told me. I won’t give up on her”. Mai looked flustered, and dropped her gaze to the ground.'''

'''“Well, would you have me as well? I really spent a lot of time finding you, and I have a place you can come back to…”'''

'''“I think that sounds like a lovely idea”, Alicia said. For all the happiness she felt for what Subaru had told her, it felt great to see the other girl asking her for permission. “As long as you remember who’s in charge”.'''

'''“We’re going to have to talk about that”, Subaru said sternly, and walked over to kiss Mai. She hugged him tightly. '''

'''“I can’t wait to show you what I’m capable of”.

Subaru woke up in the tent, Alicia laying next to him with Mai on top of his chest, both smiling as they saw he was awake.'''

'''“Mai, that was something! I thought I was prepared after Alicia, but you… you were entirely different!”'''

“So who did you like better?” Mai asked with a grin on her face.

'''“Oh no, I’m not considering that question. Let’s pack up and get moving, you said you have a place to stay?”'''

'''“A house”, she answered. “It’ll be a little small for three of us, but I think it will suit us”. --- Weeks later, they were set up in their new home, having used a transportation spell to travel to a small village in Zipangu. There was a front yard with a single tree, kilometers of fields, and the mountains in the distance. With Subaru walking through town to buy supplies and talk with the neighbors, Mai confronted Alicia at the house. '''

'''“Alicia, I want to talk with you about the quality of your work. You leave dishes in the sink, you leave your bed messy, and the only reason Subaru hasn’t noticed is because I’ve been taking care of all your messes. Now what do you have to say for yourself?”'''

'''“I don’t have to answer to you, foxy. He’s my husband”.'''

'''“And may I remind you that this is my house? If you want to have a man to do all your work, you can find another, but he’s my husband too, and I’m not going to let you take advantage of him”.'''

'''“Oh come on”, Alicia protested, “you know I couldn’t do that”. '''

'''“Then I want to see you try harder. I want us to get along, Alicia. When we have children, we might have different ways of raising them, but if we’re still arguing, then we’ll pass that onto them, and our family doesn’t need to have a fight like that. I and Subaru will be happy to help you, but you’ve got to learn how to do things around the house, ok?”'''

'''“Alright Mai”, she answered, looking a bit embarrassed. “Do you think we’ll both be able to have children?”'''

'''“I’m sure of it,” Mai said, smiling. '''

'''“I’m home!” Subaru called. “I got some nice fish. I think we should teach Alicia how to make sushi!” He stepped inside, taking his shoes off before entering the room. '''

'''“That’s a wonderful idea, darling. Alicia? Would you like to learn?”'''

'''“I’ll try. I, want to be good at housekeeping like both of you”. She took Mai’s hand, and Mai squeezed back, as they walked over to stand next to Subaru, each sneaking in a kiss on the cheek. '''

Oops it's an isekai anime. My main goal was to try to feature a dark elf with a character who wasn't necessarily strong enough to get the better of her, but still subvert her expectations of being the dominant one in the relationship. Because it's been mentioned that most of the monster girl profiles are slightly or even greatly exaggerated by the wandering scholar. I kind of like the dark elf, and I think there's ways to write one that's not just plain sadistic. Because I do feel that most monsters are more variable than their profiles would have you believe, and can be convinced to change their behavior if it truly doesn't suit their partner. Alongside the dark elf, there's an inari, the easiest choice for a zipangu monster to oppose the nature of a dark elf. This story kind of feels like the one I wrote for day 1, with a giant ant and an ant arachne, except here I hope for this one to feel more like 2 monsters trying to compromise in a relationship where everyone involved has agreed to the deal, whereas the other story actually made the monsters look for more unfaithful than I intended to.
