“Akh!”

He then reached out and squeezed Celia’s breasts. He saw her breast pinched and squeezed.

“Hng, eung……”

“That’s how you wake up and touch the breast of a sleeping person…. Do you like my chest so much?”

Her nipple stiffened as  Leonis’ fingertips was gently caressed it. Her back was pressed against his chest as she mumbled to him.

“I also like your back and waist lines.”

“……”

He didn’t expect her response, so he just clenched his lips together. His fingertips grew tenacious as they rubbed around the front end of the nipple.

“Are you doing this on purpose?”

“What……Hik! Ah, Ahh……!”

Celia’s face flushed as Leonis’ large thing rubbed against between her vagina.  Then, while tightly hugging Celia, Leonis said,

“Do you want me to put it in? Let me put it in……”

“Ah…..”

It wouldn’t be finished until her legs gave up on their own. It didn’t matter for her now if they did it one or two times. 

“You can put it in……if you go deeper inside…… Aahh, Ahhh!”

Celia’s ass was lifted as soon as his permission was granted, and Leonis’ penis penetrated into her. Celia squirmed at his obscene touch and relished the sensation of being penetrated. She felt the walls within her tighten, and as his thing pushed deeper into her, it grew wider.

“Ha, Celia…”

“Unggh……Ahhh, so big…”

Something had reached into the deepest part of her and filled her vagina to the brim, like if it weren’t enough. Leonis hugged Celia tightly and whispered.

“I grew up to make you satisfied.”

‘If that’s the case, were the first two times be enough?’ she wanted to reply that.

Her sex with Leonis was so pleasurable that it almost seemed like a good curse.

‘You should not make a habit of this.’

Celia concurred, moaning frantically as Leonis’ touch on her waist stimulated her.

The news that the saintess had reappeared in the Empire was welcomed by the Heavenly God Church. There was also the news that the divine beast will come down to the Empire again.

However, because he thought that it was chasing waterfall, the Emperor ordered Hellion to return to the headquarters and deliver the oracle directly to him.

This was also what Hellion had expected to some extent.

The news that the divine beast would return to this land was not common.

If the present emperor, like his grandfather, is greedy, he may cut the heavenly beast’s chest and attempt to pull out its heart once more.

‘Heart divided into four pieces.’

Hellion suddenly had a strange feeling about the dream.

The monstrous dragon bravely divided the heart into four pieces with her claws before swallowing it all at once.

‘Into four pieces……Do you mean the last four most powerful men in the imperial family?’

The mysterious power could only be used by Emperor Orkan, the second prince Phil, the third prince Giel, and finally Princess Amelia.

As they descended, their power weakened but did not disappear, indicating that the four of them represented the divine beast’s heart.

“Priest.”

The high priest opened the door and came out in response to his subordinate priest’s call.

He was dressed in thick clothes for the trip. He had to return to the Emperor’s headquarters following the Emperor’s orders. He would have been able to confide in the Emperor about his dream if he had been able to personally hold the priest.

He saw the paladins and priests escorting the high priest as he left the temple. He thought the procession was excessive, but it was necessary at the same time.

People were looking up, hoping to see something worthy of admiration. It would be difficult to lead people if the high priest did not show the authority he deserved.

The high priest nodded his head and examined the temple knight’s face.

At the long term, he was well-versed in this. The procession is led by the high priest, who was also the one he chose.

‘I can trust him.’

He was neither on the side of the emperor nor the prince. Some of these processions may have been headed by the emperor’s nephew, but the knights he led would not have to risk their lives.

Hellion rode in the carriage, commanding the priest. The priestess was also spotted riding alongside him in the procession on the horse, but she did not intervene.

It was going to be a long trip.

The high priest gazed around the temple, hoping nothing significant happened in the meantime.

‘May the blessings of Nedesmer be upon the people.’

A large procession serving the high priest moved in response to the paladin’s call to leave.

The maids’ hands were steady as they passed the envelopes around.

Amelia’s behaviour was unusual since she was aware of how few invites she had received, as well as how unpleasant they had been to her in the past.

‘No way……’

As she strode closer and took it, she noticed the maid’s brows furrowed. If she had been in another imperial palace, she would have been punished for it alone, but she was in the concubine’s.

She did not receive a palace despite her status as a princess, therefore it was also the shabby residence of a princess who lived on the other side of the concubine’s palace.

Amelia grew up among the concubines, who was the position assigned to her mother at a young age. She should have been given another palace as she grew older, but the emperor took her for granted and ignored her.

It was fortunate for her. This place held a lot of memories for her and her mother.

She will be unwelcomed wherever she goes. It would have been great if she could have stayed here, where she had previously lived with her mother.

As she opened the envelope, Amelia ignored the maid’s irritated glare. As she had expected, the letter contained an invitation from the Duchess of Cardian.

‘Nice! She actually did send it!’

She felt as if she wanted to shout joyful cheers.

It was sometimes difficult for her to go out, but she could easily go out if she received an invitation from the Duchess of Cardian.

Michael also had the decency to ask for help, so she will help him…….

She would have been worried about her appearance before she manifested her power, but not now. The emperor has taken steps to ensure that she can live at least as a member of her imperial family since she manifested her powers.

It was a dress that could be worn every season.

Amelia’s maid seemed worried about not being able to dress her up, but the courtiers sent people to check on her every now.

‘This dress……It’s a little out of fashion, but I can still wear this dress for the outdoors.’

“Is this the Duchess of Cardian’s invitation?”

The maid’s perplexed gaze made it seem as if she had dared to accept the Duchess’ invitation. Amelia’s anger had subsided.

All of the maids assigned to her were from the third or second Empress’s pick. People who were supposed to keep an eye on her seemed to be unaware of her situation at times.

Or they were preoccupied with the fact that they were just the watchdogs and Amelia was being watched.

“You are right.”

When Amelia confirmed it, the maids exchanged nervous glances. Amelia needs to be accompanied to the Duke of Cardian’s mansion…… There seemed to be an equal number of people who wanted to go and those who didn’t want to go.

It had to be because if they didn’t follow her, the place would be scary, and their’real master’ would be offended if they didn’t.

Amelia couldn’t care less about how they felt.

“I think I will be visiting them next week……It would be better to prepare in moderation. It doesn’t matter to me who follows.”

She despises them all.

Amelia entered her bedroom, leaving her maids behind, whom she didn’t care.

✦ ✦ ✦

“Amelia, you must have the power to crawl? How did you win the favor of the Duchess of Cardian at that time?”

The third Empress, who is convinced that Amelia and Celia became friends at the ball, said. Her maids, who were attached to Amelia, were the ones who inquired about the news.

Phil was dumbfounded.  He knows that her mother put people on Amelia, but he didn’t know what to do with Amelia, whose background was a commoner.

His Majesty kept her alive because she was part of the imperial family, but if he became emperor, she would have to go to the north of the country right away. She’ll die with her boots on.

‘That bitch’s nanny got a kick in the ass. Amelia, she’s a bit of a bummer.….’

“Prince, do you hear me? Didn’t you say Amelia was invited by the Duchess of Cardian!”

“So? You know that the Duke of Cardian has already turned his back on me, right? My relationship with him is like a broken pot. You can’t put it back on.”

When she saw Phil’s blunt response from a hangover, the 3rd Empress’s eyebrows rose upwards without realizing they were soaring in the sky.

“Then are you going to hand over the throne to Michael?”

“I don’t think so, but……”

The third empress’s whining voice bothered Phil and caused him a headache. But despite his circumstances, the 3rd Empress said.

“It’s a great opportunity for us that Amelia became acquainted with the Duchess of Cardian.  There’s something the prince is good at!”

There are times when you use it to bully people…… Phil, who had been forced to listen to her mother’s voice while pressing his temple tightly, saw the third empress.

“Hmm……”

“Is that something I can do? If you’re caught…… The Duke of Cardians isn’t going to sit still…….”

“Have you already had a falling out with him? So… You must use his wife, Duchess of Cardian, to mend your relationship.”

“If you have a relationship with her and make it your weakness, even that woman will be able to move around as she wishes. If the Duke of Cardian learns about it, he will not let you live.”

It was tempting to hear. The problem was that the Duchess of Cardian was already on high alert with a sharp edge against him.

“……Do you mean to lure Amelia to the Duchess of Cardian by bringing her close to her?”

“You’re right! You have a knack for picking up on things like that.”

The last word sounded condemning, but that wasn’t Phil’s concern. If that’s possible, he’ll be able to embrace Celia in his arms.

After learning his weaknesses, he intended to enjoy Lady Montague as ruler for a long time.

‘Duke Cardian, it’ll be a sight to see if I kill him and tell him later!’

Phil beamed with joy as he imagined a future that would never come.
