Chapter 513 – #108_Cooperative Relationship (6)
#513
1.
Just because the Kraken had fled into the sea didn’t mean it was daytime.
The sky was still dark, and every time the Kraken thrashed in pain, small tidal waves crashed over the pier.
The flying fish, having lost the apex predator that had been chasing them, were no longer in a frenzy and now leisurely flew around.
Siwoo scanned the sea near the pier.
Even looking wouldn’t conjure up a solution.
As Deneb had said, it wasn’t as if she had earned the nickname ‘Witch of the Deep Sea,’ and more than anything, just by looking at the Kraken’s appearance, the dark, swirling sea was its home turf.
For Siwoo, who had no experience in naval combat, chasing after it to land another blow was too dangerous an option.
Bringing Deneb back to cast another spell was also problematic.
First, there was no suitable place to ‘recharge’ while the flying fish were still around.
Second, the resources consumed by magic weren’t just mana.
Using all of one’s mana put a strain on the spirit’s circuits.
The mental strength required for large-scale calculations was also an invisible resource that needed replenishing.
It was the same reason why Siwoo couldn’t use magic infinitely, even if he could repeatedly use amplification.
In the end, he could do nothing but protect Deneb from the occasional flying fish while waiting for time to pass.
As day broke, the city began to recover.
This time, they used a nearby merchant’s house as a place to rest instead of the chapel.
The bedding was high-quality, filled with plenty of feathers, and the wine in the house was incomparably better than the church’s.
However, Deneb, sitting on the edge of the nice bed, didn’t look too happy.
It must have been complicated for her as well.
The highest output magic she had used after resorting to having sex with Siwoo hadn’t worked.
As a proud countess, her pride must have taken a hit.
So, he offered a casual consolation, as if he didn’t care much.
“That’s a shame.”
To be honest, Siwoo was also feeling a bit unsettled.
As things stood, additional mana charging was inevitable.
Frankly, his male instincts were shouting in joy, but when he thought about his lovers, especially the twins, who must be worried sick about his sudden disappearance, he felt ashamed.
“Siwoo, I need some time to think alone.”
“Yes?”
“Could you leave me alone for a bit?”
“Understood. I’ll be resting in the next room.”
After seeing Siwoo leave, Deneb took a sip of wine.
She grabbed her forehead, which was flushed as if she had been up all night researching, and sighed again.
“Haa…”
She had unleashed her best attack with all her mana.
If there was an unexpected event, it was that the monster, having survived the attack, had retreated into the sea.
Considering the Kraken’s regenerative abilities, the three hours of night plus the four hours of daylight were enough time for it to recover from all its injuries.
She had even resorted to the extreme measure of sleeping with Siwoo, but since she hadn’t managed to hunt the Kraken, it was back to square one.
The Kraken’s ability to escape and its regeneration.
More important than these two points was Deneb’s lack of firepower.
If she could have killed it in one blow, she wouldn’t have allowed it to escape or regenerate.
“If only my sister were here…”
Through today’s battle, Deneb keenly felt Albireo’s absence.
Deneb had never deployed such large-scale magic alone.
It was natural, given the nature of Gemini, where the two were one.
Then, the only remaining method was for Deneb to become accustomed to deploying large-scale magic alone.
In other words, the only way forward was to extract more firepower with the same mana in a more efficient way.
That required trial and error, and her relationship with Siwoo for charging was inevitable.
Deneb had no idea how many more times she would have to do that depraved act.
Deneb’s eyebrows twitched.
She got up and knocked on the door of the next room where Siwoo was waiting.
“Yes, Lady Deneb.”
The answer came immediately.
Deneb sighed and said,
“Like yesterday… please prepare.”
2.
After dinner, in the study of the Gemini Count’s family.
The twins were still struggling with the mountain of assignments Sharon had given them.
Thick magic books were spread out on the table, separating Odile and Odette like the Berlin Wall.
Then, Odette’s small face popped out from one side of the anti-cheating books.
“Sister, sister.”
“What is it, Odette? I’m not going to tell you. Do it yourself. Don’t you remember this was a bet?”
Odile covered her assignment with both arms, preventing her younger sister from cheating.
But what Odette was interested in now wasn’t Odile’s report written in a lively font.
“Oh, come on, it’s not that, listen to me, sister.”
“What is it?”
“Don’t you think our teacher… is a bit strange these days?”
“Huh?”
She suddenly started talking, and Odile thought something was up, but it was just idle chatter.
Odile tilted her head and put down her homework, moving the book between them.
She had been with her younger sister every moment since birth.
Just by hearing Odette’s slightly excited voice, she could tell that something much more interesting than homework was about to unfold.
“What do you mean by that?”
“Just what I said.”
The twins had two teachers, but when they referred to ‘teacher’ without specifying ‘little teacher,’ it meant Albireo.
“So what is it!”
Odile thumped the table, frustrated.
Odette spoke carefully, as if revealing a great secret.
“I think our teacher is going through puberty.”
“…What?”
Odile was dumbfounded.
Puberty? Suddenly?
What kind of nonsense was this?
“More precisely, I think she has a crush on someone.”
“What?????”
Whether it was the older teacher or the younger teacher, they were both orthodox witches who didn’t even glance at sexual acts.
That teacher had a crush on someone?
It was a ridiculous and absurd story, but that was why it was such an interesting topic of conversation.
“What do you mean by that?”
“Listen. Haven’t you noticed anything strange lately, sister?”
Odette’s attitude, as if she was the one who was frustrated, made Odile tilt her head.
She had seen her teacher at breakfast and dinner, but there was nothing particularly different from usual.
She was the ideal model of a witch that Odile had in mind.
She was a cool and respectable teacher.
But Odette’s intuition was sharp.
Didn’t she always notice when Odile secretly went on dates with the assistant?
After a moment of thought, Odile grabbed Odette’s wrist and sat side by side on the sofa.
“Actually, about a week ago, I suddenly had something to ask, so I went to the older teacher’s room, right?”
“You went alone?”
“Yeah, but I heard a strange sound then.”
“A strange sound?”
“Sister, I don’t know if I should say this. It’s a matter of our teacher’s dignity…”
Odette lowered her voice, as if telling a scary story.
But she hesitated at the most important part.
“Odette, don’t worry, I won’t be surprised or flustered no matter what. So, just tell me quickly!”
“…I heard a sound.”
“A sound?”
“A lewd sound.”
Odile’s eyes widened.
Could it be…?
“Maybe se…x?”
“No, sister. It wasn’t that intense of a sound.”
If it had been, there would have been obscene sounds of flesh colliding, moans that couldn’t be suppressed, or rough breathing.
But what Odette had heard was…
“A sound of holding back moans? No. You know that nasal sound you make when you’re excited?”
“Are you saying… our teacher was pleasuring herself?”
“Yeah, I think so.”
Odette nodded readily, and Odile fell into thought.
Even though the mansion was large, the teachers and the twins were a family living together.
Just as the twins’ escapades had been caught on the teachers’ radar, the opposite could very well happen.
Still, it was quite shocking that their kind and elegant teacher was masturbating.
“And if you look closely these days, she sometimes spaces out, suddenly blushes and leaves, and sometimes sighs deeply.”
“That’s because she has things to do. Our teacher is always busy with business.”
“No, sister, it’s different. It’s something different from when she’s just worried.”
“Hmm… now that you mention it, it does seem like that?”
When Odile combined the signs she had casually overlooked with Odette’s testimony, a reasonable deduction began.
Indeed, the older teacher had often blushed and left her seat while drinking tea lately, and she hadn’t even paid attention during meals.
But what did it matter?
“Odette, our teacher can do that too. Besides, sexual acts aren’t bad. They’re rather lovely and precious. We, as apprentice witches, have already taken the steps to adulthood with our assistant.”
“That’s true…”
“The time has come for our teacher too. We just need to understand her as she is without showing it.”
Odile was much more mature than her teacher when it came to relationships.
She gently comforted her younger sister, who might have been disappointed or surprised by her teacher’s unexpected behavior.
It was like a meeting between parents who had just found out about their son’s first masturbation.
But even with Odile’s comfort, Odette didn’t look completely relieved.
There was one thing that bothered her.
“But sister, who do you think the other person is?”
“Odette, just because she’s masturbating doesn’t mean she has a crush on someone.”
“But if our teacher, who hasn’t done that for over a hundred years, suddenly changed, wouldn’t there be someone?”
Suddenly, silence fell between the two.
“……”
“……”
Coincidentally, they were both thinking of the same person.
“Nah, no way.”
“Nah, it wouldn’t be that far.”
Odile and Odette looked at each other and chuckled.
“There’s no way such a ridiculous thing could happen.”
“Yeah, yeah, sister.”
3.
At that time, Albireo, who had finished dinner and was preparing for magical research, was lying on her bed, suffering.
To be more precise, it was a strange situation where her body felt good, but her mind was tormented.
She didn’t want to know.
She didn’t want to know about the pleasure that came from the physical relationship between a man and a woman, or what her son-in-law’s thing felt like.
Not at all, not even a little bit.
After a brief caress, she could feel a thick, hot thing penetrating her body.
“Ugh…”
Did they do it after breakfast this morning, and now they’re doing it after dinner?
They were very vigorous.
Moreover, as if proudly claiming that she had already had her first experience, the pain was gone, and only a sweet pleasure filled her stomach.
“Deneb…!”
If she were to concede a hundred times, she could call it a mistake once, but from the second time onwards, it was no longer a mistake.
Furthermore, she had tried to reverse-track Deneb’s location based on the resonance of the brand, but she couldn’t pinpoint her location, as if she was blocking it very thoroughly.
With Deneb and Siwoo’s agreement, a family tree that would be cursed even in a soap opera was being completed.
And in real-time!
Because of that, even though she knew that Amelia had closed her shop and was looking for Siwoo, Albireo couldn’t say a word to her.
How was she supposed to explain this?
Just imagining Siwoo kneeling in front of Albireo and shouting, ‘Mother-in-law! Please give me your little mother-in-law too!’ made her head spin.
“Ugh! This is so annoying! Annoying! Hwaaaang!”
As she soaked her underwear again with the subsequent ejaculation and the forcibly delivered orgasm.
Albireo let out a strange scream that was a mix of annoyance and moans.
That must be very stressing though, imagine you are talking with someone and you start to feel pleasure and moan in front of him…
