Chapter 598 – Side Story 2. The Loneliness of Female Knights (1)
Now, more than a year has passed since the temple ended.
The season was spring as it entered April.
Even in Iceland, midday in the south, which is famous for being warm, was even warmer, like early summer.
“You damn guys!”
And there were three knights swinging their swords under the noon sunlight.
Knights who emit an aura like strongly reflected sunlight and draw beautiful sword strikes.
The soldiers’ mouths dropped open as they watched the knights’ performance.
“For such young knights, are they so good at swordsmanship?”
“Well, even if they are such young women, they are High Nights of the Midnight Sun. “I don’t know if we were implicitly ignoring them.”
It was natural for the soldiers to be surprised.
This is the southern Keatic Gate, the part of the devil where Inferno once existed.
So even now that the demon god has disappeared, traces of chaos and demonic beasts that survived like dregs existed nearby.
Although many high-level demonic beasts do not appear like the chaos during the crusade.
Still, if type 1 magical beasts appear in a territory where many troops were lost after the war.
It was truly like a disaster on the level of a natural disaster had occurred.
At that time, a female knight shouted.
“It looks like it’s sorted out. There was a loss of soldiers. Now let’s hurry and get out of here! Soldiers who are able to move well should take care of the wounded soldiers!”
Fortunately, the situation here was no bad.
It is a very dangerous place because it is close to the site of the old inferno.
Because of that danger, Agriel’s emperor and current demon king.
Julian von Reinhardt personally dispatched his knights.
Three High Knights.
So, the girls who showed great activity a little while ago should have been royal knights under the Demon King.
The affiliation was a bit unique.
They were young female knights dispatched as Royal Knights from the Knights of the Midnight Sun.
So the soldiers of the Southern Demon King’s Army were puzzled at first.
I stopped being suspicious when I saw that among the three, there was a knight with pink hair.
– The pink-haired knight, if he is also a knight from the midnight sun, isn’t he the knight who was well-known even among the Western Demon Lords?
A few months before the Last Crusade.
Yulian, who entered the Demon Kingdom, announced the beginning of the legend with the Western Demon King’s army.
At that time, the human women who worked with Yulian became a hot topic among demon soldiers.
One of them is Lucia May, a pink-haired female knight.
Later, the Western Demon King’s Army joined the Southern Demon King’s Army.
The soldiers of the southern Demon King’s army were well aware of her reputation.
But those longing eyes have now become so familiar.
Lucia May, the knight of the midnight sun, just wanted to quickly put away the sword that was stained with the witch’s blood in silence.
***
Several hours have passed since the battle ended.
Three people who came after a meeting of commanders of the Southern Demon King’s Army and Corps.
Lucia and Uriel. And Charlotte came into the bathhouse together.
“I was worried a lot, but. First, it feels like the fire has been put out to some extent.”
Lucia said to the two people.
“Ugh… I thought everything was over now that the demon god was dead. Still, post-war recovery is not as easy as you might think! Phew…”
Spiral head. So, Charlotte, the female knight with blonde hair curled into a bun.
With a languid expression, she leaned her shoulder against the stone wall of her bath.
Sloshing-
Charlotte’s large breasts swayed with the movement.
Despite her large size, Miyu draws her water droplets without sagging.
And even the appropriately sized pink areolas.
It was such a beautiful breast that men couldn’t take their eyes off them even for a moment.
The other two people here are both here.
They were all naked in the bathtub and thought nothing of it.
“Phew… It’s so bad that it can’t be compared to the hot springs in Essenmund. Still, after a battle with a demonic beast, I think I need to take a bath in warm water to relieve fatigue.”
Uriel and Lucia nodded at Charlotte’s words.
Charlotte looked at Lucia as if she was interested in that appearance.
“Sir Uriel is from Essenmund, so it’s natural that he likes hot springs. Still, it seems like Lucia has grown to enjoy bathing in warm water. “It’s not for nothing that people hate warm water because of us, so we’re hanging out together, right?”
“Not really. The bathing culture is definitely less developed in the South than in Essenmund… But when you’re tired like now, warm water is better than cold water.”
So the three people chatted in a comfortable atmosphere.
‘I feel like I’ve become quite friendly with these two people.’
Lucia was happy, though.
As she is blunt, she hid her feelings inside.
Originally, Lucia didn’t have many friends.
Her depressed past history.
Lucia had a strong feeling of avoidance of men due to her biological father, Duke Pedro.
So, it is the fighting end of the Pantheon that has relatively many men.
She was the one who always wandered around there.
Although I knew that the people of her fighting sect called her the Goddess of Loia.
It was just an embarrassing nickname for her Lucia.
‘I’m a superior to my classmates… Maybe I’m more comfortable with the older sisters.’
But Uriel and Charlotte. I quickly became friends with the two people.
All three gained great insight into the sword through the temple and became High Knights.
Since Uriel and Charlotte are seniors who joined Byakuya, they are Lucia’s superiors in principle.
But in reality, the two treated Lucia without fault.
Uriel is one year older than Lucia.
Although Charlotte is about five years older than Lucia, the three have already been classmates since the Battle of Harsen.
‘Maybe it’s because we have something in common…’
It was like that.
In fact, all three of them had already spent the night with Julian.
So, all of them were members of the harem of the Demon Dragon Yulian.
And the night of the festival just before the crusade against the Apostle of Chaos.
At that time, all three of them spent another night with Julian in the temporary harem room.
They just didn’t completely let go of their nicknames.
In their hearts, the three of them already thought of each other as close sisters and brothers.
“Ha… But since my body feels warm like this… Why does it make me feel lonely at the same time?”
Lucia and Uriel also showed offended expressions at Charlotte’s words.
“What does it mean to be lonely?”
Uriel asked, glancing sideways at Charlotte. Then Charlotte hurriedly answered.
“If I keep doing this, I’m going to make spider webs downstairs! The nights are long and lonely… I have to attack alone every time… What should I do with my heated body!!”
“Phew!!”
At Charlotte’s words that were so blatant, Uriel immediately covered her mouth.
Lucia also averted her gaze from Charlotte and blushed.
‘Sir Charlotte is very kind… She is a warm person, but sometimes she can be very quirky.’
Still, Lucia sympathized with the meaning of those words.
After that ecstatic night when all the members of the harem mixed themselves with Julian.
The three of them could not spend any night with Julian.
Of course, that fact is not surprising.
Liliana A. Lindo, who officially became his first wife.
She heard that Julian was so busy now that it was difficult for her to sleep with him.
And everyone was busy with post-war recovery, so they were physically distant.
If you stay in Riel, the capital of the Demon Kingdom where Julian is currently located, there is a possibility that you will see him often.
Each member of the harem that Julian created was extremely capable.
Due to post-war recovery issues, there is a lack of talent anywhere in Iceland. Like them, she couldn’t stay in Riel.
‘So it’s hard to see Julian…’
All three did not really think that they would become his third wives.
As their essence is knights.
His absolute loyalty to Julian was a pure heart that did not expect anything in return.
So it’s sad, but it’s as if they won’t be able to feel Julian’s body heat for the time being.
‘When I received Eirin’s letter a while ago… Lilia and Eirin said that they would soon find a way to relieve that loneliness…’
Like a first wife.
Lilia and Eirin regularly took care of the harem members scattered throughout Iceland through the letters.
Although the three did not express it directly.
Harem members never get involved with other men.
It’s a big hardship to endure the loneliness of Julian. The first wives seemed to know it well.
‘I don’t know how to alleviate that loneliness.’
At that time, Charlotte shouted.
“Thinking of Julian… It’s not bad to masturbate all night long, but… How can I be satisfied with only masturbating when I spent the night with such a wonderful person! Lord Uriel and Lord Lucia feel the same way, right?”
“Well, I don’t masturbate!”
Uriel shouted urgently at Charlotte’s blatant remarks.
But Charlotte opened her eyes like a half moon, and she glanced at Uriel.
“No way. The person who helped Yulian’s first mana awakening with a very sticky love affair was Sir Uriel. How could I forget that first experience? Not long ago, when she sneaked into Sir Uriel’s room at night. I already saw it clearly with my own eyes! I was masturbating while watching Julian’s joust…”
“Well, did you see that?”
“Huh? It was true. “Actually, I haven’t seen it, but I saw it… Haha.”
“Lord Charlotte!!”
“Oh, come on, don’t touch my breasts! Because it’s sensitive!”
The two people were bickering.
They are two people who get along well, so joking around like that is normal.
“Look! How pure is Sir Lucia! I will definitely cherish only my spiritual love for Julian and not masturbate even once. People are so kind and innocent that it can’t be like that, right?”
At that time, Charlotte’s eyes turned to Lucia.
“That… That…”
“For some reason, Sir Charlotte says all the right things! Lucia is a noble knight! “Isn’t that obvious!”
And Uriel made that excuse instead of Lucia.
In this way, Uriel protected himself from Charlotte’s mischievous pranks.
‘Even if he pretends not to be, Sir Uriel is a kind person…’
But Lucia was hot.
Although it is not jousting like Yuriel.
I slept every night holding the demon dragon’s scale in my arms, which I received from Julian as a token of my harem and lover.
And it seems like Julian’s body temperature and body odor are transmitted through those scales.
Sometimes, there were days when I hugged those scales and masturbated all night long, missing Julian.
To be honest, I didn’t write it down.
‘… I need to be quiet.’
It would have been difficult for me to just pass over the guided interrogation like Yuriel.
However, the three of them bickered like a joke.
It was true that it was not easy to endure that loneliness.
Her first wives, Lilia and Eileen, also care about it.
And I suddenly remembered the shocking truth I had read in Cecilia’s letter not long ago.
– Perhaps if you are a famous alchemist like Chloe, you might be able to process the demon dragon’s scales into a special shape. And it was processed using tools that are completely similar to your brother’s items!
Disk-like scales about the size of a palm.
That said, it might be possible to process those scales into a special rod-shaped tool.
And Cecilia said that if it were Chloe, she would have already made and used the tool.
‘Well… That’s such a shame. No matter how Chloe is, she would do such an obscene thing…’
I think I’ve also heard that some female swordsmen sometimes masturbate with their swords.
Even though she grew up in the South, Lucia had an extreme disdain for promiscuity.
I had no recollection of such things.
‘Sigh…’
But suddenly I think about that Julian thing.
The depth of her naked lower body twitched without her knowledge.
‘I think it’s going to get weird if it goes on like this. You have to stay in the bath for a while before getting out…’
The three people chatted for a while in the bathhouse and then left.
Since I’m already out, it’s evening.
However, the three people who were about to have dinner together heard unexpected news.
“Someone came to visit us?”
Southern Demon King’s Army.
The commander stationed near Inferno called them.
And I spoke to them carefully.
“That’s right. Although it is absolutely confidential… His Majesty visited this place.”
