Web Novel Announcements

Hi there!

Thanks for reading Netorase Sword Princess. I hope you've enjoyed Iris's lewdness. This latest chapter marks the conclusion of the first part of the web novel. With the defeat of the Dark General, a natural lull has come, offering not only a reprieve from the Demon King's army, but also the writing process after a full novel's worth of content (115000 words) and stringently weekly updates.

The web novel will be paused for now while I find the time needed to commit to the...

Chapter 41: The Sword Princess's Home, Day (3)

The next morning, I woke up to an bizarre sound.

That in itself was not strange. To any seasoned adventurer, there was nothing but bizarre sounds to be found here. In Iris's village, the various notes of peace and tranquillity flowed alongside the shimmering river which fed its many wheat fields and watermills.

The noise which I found most strange, however, was the crisp knocking on my bedroom door.

It was simply something that never happened. Whether I stayed in an inn or, ...

Chapter 40: The Sword Princess's Home, Day (2)

My business in the village market ended only when the sun began to fall across the horizon.

Even for transactions as simple as purchasing foodstuffs, the presence of Iris's mother combined with my relative unknown meant that no goods could be sold without a firm introduction and a lengthy conversation being part of the process.

Soon, I'd found myself more tired than during any adventuring excursion, and it was only when the bell to signal the closure of the market stalls rang that...

Chapter 39: The Sword Princess's Home, Day (1)

Without his most loyal officer, his most capable soldier and his most feared enforcer, infighting within the Demon King's army emerged almost immediately. Within a day of the Dark General's demise, the goblins, ogres and lesser demons which made up the core of the army began to settle arguments with knives and grudges with blood.

One week after the first divisions began to appear, loyalty of the great clans united beneath the Demon King's banner splintered, torn between their support of...

Chapter 38: Northern Bastion, Day (2)

“Shit,” I cursed beneath my breath.

The horn blasts were innumerable. Try as I might, I could not block out the sounds echoing across the frozen plains, hidden within the blackening darkness.

No longer simply atop the battlements, it had clearly descended down onto the ground. Such was the thickness of the smog, I could no longer even see the smoke twisting in on itself. What had moments ago been a smog was now a wall of blackness.

It was an omen of something terrible to...

Chapter 37: Northern Bastion, Day (1)

By the time the sight of the grey fortress appeared in view, I was almost thankful we'd made it to the northern front. As far as I knew, there was only a small chance of a stray arrow killing me, whereas there was a 100% guaranteed chance of this carriage's rockiness being the death of me.

The carriage driver had released a flap at the front tarp, allowing a windowed view at the walls of the Northern Bastion as it took up the skyline. Despite it being a minor fortress so far as its cont...

Bonus Chapter: A Goddess's Dream (2) [Patreon]

In the distance, the lights of the Royal Army's camp was blazing in the darkness.

Even so, it took me several moments to realise where I was. Surrounded by a forest of dark trees and thick bushes, I knew that this was where our convoy had chosen to make camp beside the northern road. It was a scenic place to spend the night. Beneath me, the grass was tall and wild, while moonlight shone through the ceiling of leaves clouding the sky.

A warm, nightly breeze woke me from my initial ...

Bonus Chapter: A Goddess's Dream (1) [Patreon]

My eyes snapped awake to the sight of pews and pillars, a wooden alter and tall, coloured windows.

Serenity washed over me. Nostalgia and forgotten memories. The scent of familiar wood was like a balm to my soul, reminding me of all the good things worth dying for. It was only fitting that a place like this smelled like the heavens.

It was, after all, a church.

Specifically, it was the church I had spent much of my time growing up. An ordinary church much like any other, fun...

Chapter 36: Royal Army Carriage, Night (1)

I knew it was still night even before my eyes took in the darkness. The coldness had enveloped me, the blanket I wore draped over my body having fallen to the carriage floor. And yet all I felt was the dried warmth soiling my own legs.

A wet dream.

An ordained hero. A valiant protector of the people. A symbol of strength.

And I was still having wet dreams.

My heart thumped in my chest as memories of my dream remained fresh in my mind. It was the image of my beloved gir...

Chapter 35: Royal Army Carriage, Day (1)

“The Northern Bastion.”

In a small room partitioned from the rest of the Dignitary's Hall, a panel of hawkish men sat facing us as we stood to attention. Iris and myself, that is. Magnus was happily slouching while using his holy artifact as if he was an old man with a walking stick.

I could see the effort Iris was utilising in order to not snap at him.

“The Northern Bastion, despite its name, is one of the lesser fortresses guarding the approach into the kingdom,” s...

Chapter 34: Royal Capital Castle, Day (3)

In the bathroom, I heard the sounds of Iris's gentle splashing as she washed herself.

The fact that she'd likely already bathed today and was only washing herself due to her promiscuity was just another point to the immorality of what I witnessed. And yet as I heard the sounds of water running down her fair skin, I could not help but feel that she wasn't so much cleansing the proof of her cheating from her body, but rather preparing herself for the next time.

It was like she was w...

Chapter 33: Royal Capital Castle, Day (2)

My heart was racing.

I was so nervous that my body could do little more than shiver.

But it was shivering with excitement.

As I watched beyond the slim opening of the closet, I felt like I could burst again at any moment. I already had, of course, but I was at breaking point again just from imagining what was about to happen.

The sight of my beloved girlfriend being taken right before my eyes.

Iris smiled, her blue eyes locked on the man in front of her as she ma...

Chapter 32: Royal Capital Castle, Day (1)

The next morning, I was greeted with a breathtaking sight.

As my eyes opened to a new day, I slowly realised that I was surrounded by more luxury than I had time to soak in. The lush furnishings, carpets and the sweeping vista offered by the clear window into the Royal Capital's bay were second to none. No residence, be it owned by a nobleman or a proprietor of grand hotels could match the luxury of the room I found myself waking up in.

However, it wasn't merely the sight of wakin...

Chapter 31: Royal Capital Castle, Night (1)

“Spears and crossbows, stand down!”

Disorientation blinded me as I found myself lurching where I stood, as if pushed and pulled by opposing forces equally hell bent on making me vomit. But whereas my eyes were made useless by the dizzying mirage of new surroundings being rapidly and forcefully spun into my mind against the natural order of things, my ears still more or less worked.

Sound flooded my ears. Plated boots on a stone floor. Swords released from their sheaths. Crossb...

Chapter 30: Blackrose Red Light District, Night (3)

Magnus grinned as he easily twirled the Spear of the Wayward Maiden in his hand. He made it look like spinning a baton, although compared to the halberd he usually carried, it probably was.

He jumped off the corpse of the Demon of Greed. Smoke was now beginning to emit from its twisted, hideous body. Its eyes, all three pairs of them, were now dark, unseeing orbs in their sockets.

Yet even in its fallen state, it was still the picture of evil and brutality. Looking at it closely, ...

Chapter 29: Blackrose Red Light District, Night (2)

Around me, the sounds of screaming faded as I crashed onto the street outside. I didn't know whether it was due to the sudden emergence into an open space or the fact that many of those voices were now forcibly silenced.

Already, the stench of blood was thick in my nostrils.

The attack by the Demon King's forces had taken us both unawares and at the worst possible place. Although I had no love for the nobility of this city, I regretted their needless deaths. But I knew already tha...

Chapter 28: Private Auction Estate, Night (5)

The sweetest sight greeted me when I opened my eyes.

A beautiful girl with her golden hair twisted into a lovely bun. She was on her knees, smiling up at me. However, the smile she wore was different to the ones she usually offered me. There was a hint of apology to it, as if she was now trying to soothe me for a small misdemeanour she'd committed.

It didn't matter. No matter what hue her smile carried, it was still beautiful.

“Really … you should remember that this is a...

Chapter 27: Private Auction Estate, Night (4)

I knew that feelings of disgust should have awoken within me at the sight of Magnus wearing that telltale smirk while standing in front of Iris.

And yet all I felt were the deep, shameful feelings of expectation. The excitement stemming from the guilt and the envy. The breathlessness resulting from knowing what they were about to do.

Once again, Iris had continued to escalate her immorality without my knowledge. This wasn't just like the night in the Renfont Manor, wher...

Chapter 26: Private Auction Estate, Night (3)

The ballroom appeared even larger than it had previously.

I searched the expansive space for any sign of Iris's telltale golden hair. Instead, all I saw were the coming and goings of the nobility, who now shared whispers as much as they did laughter as they caught sight of me.

Undoubtedly, my heavy-handedness concerning winning the Spear of the Wayward Maiden was already topical gossip. I could not help but notice that a more cutting interest was now directed towards me...

Chapter 25: Private Auction Estate, Night (2)

Iris left a trail of eyes staring at her elegant figure as she swept down the ballroom.

Both men and women appeared transfixed by her radiance as her long hair glittered beneath the chandeliers. Every inch of her milky-white skin seemed exposed beneath those bright lights, so much so that even the glittering ornaments and cutlery dimmed as she passed.

Such was her mesmerising beauty, the gazes continued even after she passed people by. It wasn't only her cleavage that w...

Chapter 24: Private Auction Estate, Night (1)

The sweeping vista of a glamorous ballroom greeted us within this ramshackle building housed in the heart of the Red Light District. Beyond the initial facade, little attempt had been made to hide the hubris that was occurring within.

There were no windows, but even the dazzling moonlight would have paled in comparison to the light shone by the chandeliers fixed to the ceiling. Here, in a golden-lit interior, the finest of Blackrose's citizens were parading with vigour, conversing with ...

Chapter 23: Blackrose Red Light District, Night (1)

In a quiet street pierced only by moonlight, a nondescript house was lying empty beside a decrepit church. Or that's what the faded windows tried to suggest.

At odds with the surroundings, a man and a woman dressed in gaudy formal attire strolled up to the door. They knocked, and after speaking through a latch, were permitted inside by an unseen doorman.

In the brief window that the door was open, the din of a crowd could be heard. Somewhere inside the worn house, a series of corr...

Chapter 22: Renfont Manor, Day (3)

I heard the sound of laughter emanating from the dining room before I even stepped inside.

As the door swung open, I nodded in thanks to the well-endowed maid who held it out for me. For a moment, she blinked in surprise, then fell into a roguish smile.

I quickly hurried past, all the while wondering whether this one had been Mila, Libby or Jenny.

“It was my first time wearing armour,” said Baron Renfont, his tone humorous as he regally sat at the end of his table. “En...

Chapter 21: Renfont Manor, Day (2)

When I opened my eyes, I could tell from the heavy light sifting through the windows that midday had come.

This wasn't a new sight. As an adventurer, the nights were long and the mornings fleeting. But lately, it wasn't due to the demands of heroism that caused my sleep to stretch out into the early hours of the afternoon. Not even with commissions that had me on my feet until dusk.

Ordinarily, I'd be able to earn enough rest with a handful of sleeping hours to function sufficient...

Iris - R18 Illustration

The first official illustration of Iris has been delivered, wearing cute underwear and high heels. Thank you for helping to commission her first R18 image.

Who is she having sex with? That's up to your imagination. But it's definitely not the protagonist.

Note: in case you missed it, the latest chapter was posted yesterday.

Chapter 20: Renfont Manor, Night (5)

Magnus shoved his cock back into Iris's waiting cunt from behind.

His hard shaft was completely covered in Iris's wet juices. Over her sweet moans, only the sloppy sound of his cock ramming his own seed back into my girlfriend's womb could be heard over it.

“HhanNH … NhghhH … AhhNnnn … MmhhH~”

The glass filled with Magnus's cum rolled across the bedsheets, emptied and discarded.

Iris's palms returned to their position as she held herself up on her hands and k...
