Chapter 140: The Castle Where Death and Boobies Lurk (1)

The unconscious Gayeon and her husband were moved to another location.“Umm, Your Highness.”

The latex girl, Seina, turned to look at me.

I can’t tell what kind of expression she’s making because of the gas mask, but….

Was it wrong to call her like that?

“I apologize. How should I address you?”

“….”

Ugh.

Painful silence. Someone get me out of here….

“Please call me Seina.”

“…Without any honorifics?”

“Yes.”

It’s a real mystery.

Why is she, the emperor’s daughter, serving the four great families?

It’s also strange that she’s taking the initiative in capturing the invaders, wearing a full-body latex suit and a stuffy gas mask. S~eaʀᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She’s certainly very different from the princess I imagined.

She was a warrior who had overcome countless hardships over the past hundreds of years.

“Then…. Seina.”

“Yes. Mr. Taeyang.”

You, you’re using an honorific for me?

Maybe she let her guard down because Ariella told her to treat me like a guest, but it’s burdensome.

Let’s try to get used to it….

Actually, Seina is higher than Ariella.

If Ariella is a hard-to-approach style because she draws a line, she is intimidated by the weight of her authority.

It seems like it will take some time to adjust.

Anyway….

I just needed to know where Gayeon and her husband were going.

“Where are they going?”

“Their treatment will be decided after reporting to Her Majesty.”

I guess asking to separate them because they’re my slaves won’t work, right?

“Your contribution will also be reported to Her Majesty.”

“More importantly… I’m worried about Master Sword Empress’s life.”

“You’re worried about the life of a Destroyer?”

Seina wouldn’t know because she just arrived.

For various reasons, I couldn’t let the Sword Empress die.

“Gayeon has my brand engraved on her body.”

“Branding huh?”

“Please be sure to convey this fact to Her Majesty.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Please.

I may have betrayed them, but I didn’t want Gayeon to die.

The husband, well, whatever….

I haven’t had sex with Master yet!

“Oppa!”

“Cecil!”

Cecil jumps into my arms!

She wraps her legs around my waist and hangs there, rubbing her soft breasts against my face!

“Oh. Ohh….”

“We won!”

“Yeah, we won!”

“We got the best boobs in the world!”

“We haven’t gotten them yet, but we’re almost there!”

Seina watched us for a moment before leaving with Gayeon and her husband.

The crow soldiers also returned to the castle!

Morning came to the Devil District.

Thank goodness I’m alive!

I hugged Cecil tightly, relieved.

“We were very lucky, oppa.”

“You can say that again.”

I don’t even want to imagine what would have happened if we had fought the princess head-on.

I would have died like a bug.

Splat.

If the princess had arrived even a little bit earlier in the last moment, it would have been my defeat.

I think this was also the effect of 「Destined Development」, a characteristic I have as a Destroyer.

I didn’t know the exact effects, but I decided to think of it this way.

A wonderful skill that brings about the flow of having sex with milfs!

Just then, the embodiment of that luck approached me.

“Darling! Me too, me too!”

I hugged Liruke tightly, following Cecil.

“Thank you. Liruke. I won’t forget this favor.”

“Please come find me when you’re in the Water District.”

“Aren’t you coming with us?”

“I have to go back, I’m on a business trip and left my house empty!”

“Speaking of which, why are you, from the Water District, cooperating with the Raven family?”

“Recently, there have been signs of Destroyers forming groups. The Fonen family reached out to us first.”

The Fonen family….

One of the four great families that rule the Water District.

“The group called Breakers, right?”

“Yes.”

Is it my imagination?

I feel a strange flow of mana and look towards the alley.

The robed woman who was guarding the place disappeared into the darkness.

‘Breakers.’

In the end, I couldn’t even see the face of the messenger they sent.

What were they trying to do in the Devil District?

If their goal was a diversion, there was no reason for them to just watch.

If they wanted to kill Ariella, wouldn’t it have been a more opportune time when the princess wasn’t around?

“Darling, if you have any ideas, let me know.”

“I think the Breakers were behind the Destroyer that appeared in the Devil District.”

“Hmm. As expected….”

“Is it related to what you said?”

“If the First Number is involved, it could be a real disaster.”

“First Number?”

“The three original Destroyers.”

Cecil hesitated.

“Are they stronger than Master?”

“They’re legendary beings, so it’s impossible to know how strong they are, but~. Yes, the Nine-Tailed Fox is definitely stronger than the Sword Empress. It once turned a city into ruins.”

“Turned a city into ruins….”

“It was still incomplete, but it was incredibly strong. Everyone joined forces to drive it away, but then an unfortunate incident occurred.”

“Unfortunate incident?”

“Wh, what is it…?”

“A year ago, Sword Saint Kusley went missing.”

“….”

I knew that would come up.

It was a very famous incident in the city.

The part about the Nine-Tailed Fox destroying a city reminds me of a famous cartoon….

It can’t be that Nine-Tailed Fox, right?

I hope it’s a beautiful woman.

“Ah, it’s time for us to part ways now, darling.”

Liruke rubbed her enormous breasts against me and acted cute.

“Why, is there something you want?”

“A deep smooch~.”

I immediately grabbed Liruke’s head and kissed her deeply.

I’m the one sucking, but I feel like I’m the one being drained.

“My lips are going to get chapped. Liruke.”

“Smooch…. Smooch…. Unlocked by darling’s essence….”

I could see bubbles rising within Liruke’s body.

“I’ll be looking forward to our 3 nights and 4 days, darling.”

“Yeah, see you later.”

Liruke left the district.

The two of us were left behind.

“Are we going back too? To the workshop where Peridot is waiting?”

“No, my work starts now.”

“Boobs?”

“Yeah, I haven’t gotten my hands on them yet.”

We’re just within reach now.

Even if Ariella Raven feels indebted to me, if you ask if we’ve become a man and a woman, of course not.

Even sex is difficult.

Probably more so than any of the women I’ve slept with.

But I was thinking of approaching slowly and sincerely without rushing.

“Oppa, be serious.”

“I’m more serious about boobs than anyone else.”

“That person, she was incredibly beautiful. Even I, as a woman, was flustered.”

“Cecil, you’ll have to get close to Ariella if you want to nap with her too, right?”

“I’m going to raise her affection points!”

“If things go well, let’s call Peridot to Raven Castle, have a toast, and make it our second workshop.”

“I’ll do my best for our second workshop!”

I gently stroked Cecil’s head, who was admirable.

I also patted her fluffy cat ears.

Now that I thought it was all over, fatigue washed over me.

“Let’s go, to Raven Castle.”

We followed the path Ariella had taken and entered Raven Castle.

Like Chateau Chartreuse where Verdia was, guards were stationed at the entrance.

The soldiers wearing crow masks that I saw earlier.

‘It was mixed gender.’

They’re weak compared to the elite soldiers I saw earlier.

But compared to the guards I saw at Chateau Chartreuse, they seemed quick-witted.

We easily went inside and looked around.

“It’s spacious~.”

As Cecil commented, the interior of the castle was simply spacious and empty.

There was no elegant garden, no pretty tea table.

Only a desolate hallway, free of even a speck of dust, silently greeted us.

‘Nothing useless.’

Just like Ariella.

There were dragon carriages in the stables, but it seemed they were rarely used to parade through the streets, as there were no wheel marks on the floor….

“It’s kind of bleak.”

“I know, right?”

Where’s Ariella?

Ah, there’s Ariella coming out in a different dress.

Beautiful….

Ariella maintained a straight face towards me, grinning from ear to ear.

“Welcome to Raven Castle.”

It didn’t sound welcoming at all, but Cecil and I were happy to accept.

“Thank you for inviting us, Lady Ariella.”

“Thank you, Lady Raven!”

“The guest rooms are on the second floor. Please use whichever one you like. And the person next to you is….”

“Cecilia. My assistant.”

“Can you drink alcohol, Cecilia?”

“Yes, I can! I have a strong tolerance!”

I smiled, remembering when Cecil was drunk.

“Then, please come to the dining room in a little while.”

“Ah… Will you be joining us, Lady Ariella?”

“….”

Ariella blinked and looked at me.

As if the pause was saying, ‘Why are you asking the obvious?’

“Wouldn’t the lady of the house be present to welcome her guests?”

“Then, we’ll see you later….”

I’m nervous.

They say men become fools in front of the women they like, but if I relaxed even a little, I felt like I would cling to her with a goofy grin and beg for her boobs.

No way!

How pathetic would she think I am?

Let’s show her a slightly cooler side of me.

I sincerely wanted to win Ariella’s favor.

“Very well. Later.”

Ariella covered her cleavage with her hand and bowed her head.

Ha….

There’s no other goddess like her. Really.

I stared blankly at Ariella’s retreating figure.

“Oppa~! Let’s go pick a room.”

“Yeah, yeah.”

Led by Cecil’s hand, we headed straight for the second floor.

It was a hallway with warm orange lighting illuminating a red carpet, but it felt chilly because it was empty.

“It’s like no one lives in the castle.”

“Judging by how clean it is, it seems like someone maintains it, but….”

I don’t see anyone.

This was a far cry from Chateau Chartreuse, where people could be seen bustling about if you just poked your head out the window.

To think the only people we saw while entering this grand castle were the guards at the entrance and the stablehand….

It’s like an island isolated from the world.

365 days of pregnancy sex with Ariella in a place like this….

My mouth started watering.

“Cecil, want to shower together?”

“Yeah! You never clean between your toes, so I have to do it for you!”

“Then I’ll help you wash your hair.”

We chose a room to share and went into the shower room.

I thought I wouldn’t get excited seeing Cecil naked now that we’re like family, but….

No way!

The moment I saw Cecil’s boobs, I got a hard-on.

Even though my stamina and mana were completely drained!

The only regret here is that Cecil doesn’t do anything lewd because she thinks my erection is a common occurrence.

We have to go eat soon, so even if we can’t have sex….

My desire to fool around with Cecil grew stronger.

Is it because the dangerous situation has passed?

“Oppa?”

“Ah, tilt your head. I’ll rinse your hair.”

Sometimes, there are days when I wish the woman would make a move.

Cecil would gladly comply if I asked her to.

I guess you could say I want to protect Cecil’s innocence….

…At this rate, I feel like I’m going to pounce on her before long, but our kitty, unaware of her master’s feelings, tilted her cute face towards me.

“Wash it for me~. Master.”

“Okay.”

I carefully washed her hair, making sure the water didn’t get in her ears.

When the bath was over, Cecil squatted down and meticulously cleaned between my toes.

“Right foot. Left foot.”

It’s a sign to lift my foot.

Squish, squish.

“All clean now!”

“Let’s go eat.”

I’m nervous.

Why am I so nervous about eating?

Come to think of it, this is the first time I’m having a meal at the same table as Ariella.

It’s a moment made possible because she acknowledged me as an equal.

In other words, I’m the scummiest of the scum!

The first blonde, tanned punk to set foot in Raven Castle.

You could call me the Punk King.

I wondered what Ariella thought of me.

She’ll probably tell me to get out tomorrow, right?

“Sit wherever you like.”

Ah!

I can see Ariella just a few steps away from the room.

Amazing. Amazing!

I was as excited as if I had seen a celebrity.

The three of us ate together.

Cecil and I were starving, so we devoured the course meal in the blink of an eye.

However, Ariella didn’t particularly scold or criticize us.

Does she think it’s no big deal, like having guests who eat well?

“Lady Ariella. There aren’t many people in the castle.”

“Please be quiet during meals.”

“We’re not even talking while eating. Be lenient.”

I knew she would say that, so I’m striking up a conversation while waiting for the next dish. Hehehe.

Ariella wiped her mouth and looked at me.

“There are few people to serve because there are few people living here.”

“I see.”

“One thing. I need to tell you about something you must observe while staying here.”

Cecil, who was eating heartily, looked up.

“Areas other than the first and second floors are off-limits.”

Areas other than the first and second floors…?

That means 80% of the castle is off-limits!

“…Just out of curiosity, what happens if we enter the restricted area?”

“You die.”

Is this a horror movie?

Even the characters in movies who step into cursed abandoned houses don’t die at that rate!

“You die.”

Ariella repeated herself, as if she thought I didn’t hear her.

“Without exception.”

“…Gulp.”

Cecil swallowed her food with difficulty.

It’s a miracle she didn’t choke….

“Then, please make yourselves comfortable.”

“Ah…!”

Before I could even speak, Ariella left first.

I really feel like I’m only receiving the bare minimum of hospitality.

Considering what I’ve done, I guess I should be grateful she’s not yelling at me….

It’s better this way.

It’s also a form of attention.

Ariella was truly uninterested in me and maintained a much stiffer tone than when we first met.

This won’t do.

But I couldn’t think of a clever solution.

She would see through any sophistry I came up with, and Ariella didn’t have the vanity typical of nobles….

No matter how I tried to approach her, there was no answer.

Back in the room, I locked the door and fell into thought.

Cecil took off her clothes, climbed onto the bed, and rolled around.

“The bed is so fluffy~.”

“Cecil, can you wait a moment?”

“Okay!”

I decided to explore the castle.

Die? As if I would die!

I think I’ll die if I go up these stairs.

“….”

I walk to the courtyard.

I think I’ll die if I enter this courtyard.

Hmm….

I head to the stable.

This place is safe.

The stablehand is looking at me strangely.

Whether I went to the backyard of the castle, the warehouse, or anywhere else, the monologue echoed.

I think I’ll die. I think I’ll die. I think I’ll kick the bucket. Fatal. FATALITY

It’s too scary so I returned to my room.
