After supper.

Asai was particularly energetic, the man was in a good mood, having received assistance from divinity. Something apparently only royalty are privileged to experiencing. Especially when it was in such a private and direct manner.

Sipping on his whiskey, his eyes naturally drew close to Violet who was equally enjoying her own cup, by the campfire. Leslie, being a man of discipline, was already asleep, snoring loudly. The elf took every chance to rest and sleep, in an endeavour to accelerate the passing of time. The less hours he spent awake, the less hours he spent consciously without Queen Victoria.

Asai, feeling tipsy, started to linger his gaze across the girl's body. Drawing lines and imagining their plumpness, her squishy thighs, her cute ass and her deliberate showing of cleavage.

Although Violet was busy chugging the delicious beverage down, enjoying the intense heat upon her throat. She was very well aware of the man's gaze. She didn't even need to look on over, her mind just instinctively knew he was stripping her within his mind. Courtesy of the skill

Ignite strong sexual urges within target

Something that made her quite satisfied, for she had been quite conscious about herself. Wondering whether the Duke actually enjoyed her company, being that every time they had sexual intercourse, she was always the one to initiate it. Currently, her increasingly hot honey pot was already soaking her underwear, as her legs squirmed a little. She couldn't hear it, but she could see Asai's chest breathe, heaving deeper than before as her body started to move erotically. 

She'd deliberately lean forward when asking for refills. Allowing her two beautiful breasts to hang, displaying more of her skin to the man. Seeing his adam's apple gulp, she internally smiled in victory.

Having had enough eye candy, Asai pulled her over into his embrace, making the girl sit in-between his legs. Wrapping his arms around her mid-section, just under her soft peaks. Violet deigned herself to enjoy his tender warmth as much as possible, but her itch was increasingly distracting. Her hands went on to stroke the man's legs.

"Asai. I've been on the receiving end so much, tell me. What can I do to repay you?" Violet continued to snuggle herself into his chest. Sex was nice, but this tender-embrace was also enjoyable she found. 

"Well... I didn't exactly help you with the intention of receiving something in return." "I can't tell her I got close to her so I could fuck her for her skill right? Wouldn't that make me out to be some fuck boy? I'm a duke, even if I suffer from imposter-syndrome, I should at least make the effort to maintain a decent image right?"

Violet turned, kissing him upon the cheek. Before grabbing his hands away from her stomach and placing them upon her breasts. Squeezing his fingers into herself.

"I've thought about it, about what I could do for you. If you send me back to Ignis, Her Majesty Emilita Regenon will make me a noble. For every citizen able to cast necromancy receives peerage, that's how valuable we are. Um... So, if I become a noble of Ignis, I could become a spy for you, since you're clearly hostile towards them-"

"-Have you forgotten how I forced you to join me? The sentinels saw you with me when I destroyed the bridge remember?"

"Ah! Oh..." Violet returned her hands to his legs, resting them. Asai continued to massage and grope her breasts with one hand, the other dropped down to draw lines, feeling the dampness of her bottoms.

"You don't have to force yourself to be useful. Think about it, I am a duke. I have counts, viscounts, barons and knights to command and order. I have so much personnel I could seek assistance from. I have so much silver, bronze and copper that I honestly don't know what to spend them on. 

The only thing...

Violet, listen. What I need isn't people willing to sacrifice themselves for me. what I need is companionship, someone to be there for me. I... I was suddenly thrust into this world without reason. I have seen people I thought strong and competent die. People who I thought would have a meaningful place within my life, and possibly within my heart leave. People who I thought would stick around, people I thought I could depend on...

I have allowed people to live even after having shown clear hostility towards me. Believing that their logical and rational minds would sway them from anything foolish. Yet, men have marched their knights and vassals to attack me, slaughtering and raping the people of my territory. I have seen men lose themselves to emotion and return my kindness and friendship with avarice.

I have had superiors desire my death, and that of my allies. Even though we were fighting under the same banner. 

I haven't personally seen it with my own eyes, but the reports I receive upon my desk from Annie and Mary. Even as I speak now, my household is undergoing battles veiled in darkness and poisoned dialogue.

Violet, what I need is not another person who will die for me. To eventually leave, to become only but another forlorn memory. I need and desire people who will live for me, with me.

I could have all the world within my grasp, and I would still be unhappy if I had no one to share it with.

So don't try to sacrifice yourself, as a spy, or as a body shield to be useful. Simply live, and enjoy your life as I do. Chase your ambitions, your dreams and goals. If I can help, then tell me and I'll invest and support you. Grow, progress and focus on self-betterment.

Just, don't die for me. Live for me.

Do you understand?"
