Chapter 804 – #167_Lovers’ Grand Assembly (9)
#798
1.
The twins, having changed their clothes, sat demurely in front of Albiereo.
Having been called to the living room without even drying their hair properly, they were trembling, their spirits completely dampened.
Until now, they had been careful enough not to get caught by their teachers while doing various things with their assistant.
They remembered when their assistant was scolded and locked in the dungeon after being caught having a secret rendezvous with their little teacher.
Of course, Odile and Odette had also received a stern warning and even swore that such a thing would never happen again.
But even if it wasn’t about their relationship with their assistant, they had been caught with the Moonahole, which they had planned to use for nefarious purposes…
It was obvious how angry their strict big teacher would be.
“Odile, Odette.”
“Yes, Teacher…”
“Oh, what am I going to do with these rascals… Come here.”
But Albiereo did not scold the twins harshly.
Instead, like a mother bird embracing her chicks, she opened her arms and pulled the two twins into a hug.
“It’s not your fault…”
Sexual desire between lovers is biologically natural.
In the first place, the only one who is reprehensible is the wicked son-in-law, and what would these darlings know properly?
Moreover, Odile and Odette are still apprentice witches, so they have various penalties.
While other lovers are openly sharing their love, it’s unlikely that they would take the words to refrain from relationships until they receive their inheritance to heart.
Even recently, her younger sister, Deneb, whom she believed to be intelligent, was doing all sorts of foolish things due to ‘something she mistook for love.’
Seeing her younger sister, Albiereo had come to understand the twins a little better.
“Teacher…”
“We’re sorry…”
“It’s really okay. I won’t get angry.”
Odile and Odette, their eyes welling up with tears at the unexpected love from their big teacher, who was hugging them warmly.
“But I’ll keep this for now. I’ll give it back to you after the inheritance is over, so will you understand?”
“Yes, Teacher. We were too reckless.”
“Okay, go inside and pack your things. We have somewhere to stop by for a bit.”
“Where?”
Since the purpose of this trip was to prepare for the inheritance, it was necessary to show the twins’ faces to their vassals in the mortal realm.
They were, after all, the successors of Jemena who they would have to follow in the future.
“There’s a party, a social gathering, and a meeting… We’ll have to be busy for about three or four days.”
“Yes, can we say goodbye to our assistant when he comes back?”
“Yes, you can.”
Normally, the twins would have whined about wanting to play more or not having enough time with their assistant, but today, they became well-behaved children and scurried back to their room.
“Haa…”
The Moonahole had been confiscated, and now it was time to interrogate the person who made this audacious object.
Of course, after examining how it worked, there was no chance that anything would go wrong with the ‘vessel,’ but why did they have to add such an unnecessary wind?
“Dorothy.”
“Huh? Why, Countess?”
Dorothy, who had been loitering nearby, pretended not to know anything.
“Why did you make and give them something like this?”
“Well, it seems like the twins know everything anyway, so I thought it would be better to do it in a safe way… Don’t you think?”
Dorothy, who was always calm and collected, couldn’t be as brazen as she usually was.
To a witch, apprentice witches are precious.
They were like her own daughters, so how to teach them and how to raise them was entirely up to Albiereo.
She was feeling a bit guilty for meddling unnecessarily.
“I understand your intentions, but please be careful in the future. Odile and Odette are my children too.”
“Okay, Countess, sorry, sorry. Please don’t be angry.”
2.
Their return was a little later than expected.
Shiwoo and Eloa bought some shaved ice on their way back to the officetel.
Isn’t 2 AM the perfect time for a snack?
Last time, when the twins came, they were disappointed with the ice cream, so this time, they planned to win with shaved ice, which didn’t exist in Gehenna.
“We’re back.”
But even after taking off their shoes and entering the entrance, it felt somehow empty.
The twins, who would usually rush out to greet them, were nowhere to be seen.
“Oh… I guess we’re too late?”
“It seems they’re asleep. Odile and Odette are still apprentice witches, after all.”
Thinking that nothing was wrong, Shiwoo entered the living room, only to be greeted by Albiereo with a sulky expression and the twins looking around nervously.
The atmosphere was somehow tense.
As a bad son-in-law whose biggest fear was his big mother-in-law, he couldn’t help but swallow hard even though he had nothing to be ashamed of.
“Shiwoo, you’re back?”
“Albiereo, what brings you here…?”
“I’ll be taking the twins for about three days. I was waiting for you to come back before we left.”
“I see, have you been waiting long?”
“No, we just arrived. Shall we talk on the rooftop for a bit?”
With that, Albiereo dragged Shiwoo to the rooftop.
Shiwoo, not knowing what was going on, was anxiously trying to figure out what he had done wrong this time to be scolded by his mother-in-law.
“Haa…”
As expected, as soon as they reached the rooftop, his mother-in-law sighed as if the ground would cave in.
“Um… what’s going on all of a sudden…?”
It was such a tense situation that it wouldn’t be strange if he was suddenly kicked in the shin.
But unlike what he expected, Albiereo was just pressing her temples and didn’t directly attack him.
“I heard that Ms. Smirna suddenly called you… Is something wrong?”
Albiereo didn’t enjoy scolding her son-in-law either.
Moreover, the incident a little while ago was a minor happening that had nothing to do with Shiwoo’s will, wasn’t it?
However, she had changed the location because the conversation they were about to have could cause a headache if it reached the twins’ ears.
“There was a problem from before, and the test results came out.”
“Are you talking about the problem of not having sensation in your prosthetic arm?”
“Yes.”
“What did they say?”
“They said they don’t know the exact cause. Because of that, I think I’ll have to leave for Mongolia tomorrow.”
“Mongolia?”
“I was introduced to another witch. It’s dangerous to go alone again, so we all have to go together.”
“The twins will have to follow us for the next few days, so it worked out well.”
“Anyway… I don’t think you have to worry too much. It doesn’t seem like a serious problem right now.”
“Who’s worrying about whom?”
Albiereo replied curtly, but it was clear that her worried expression had lessened.
She was still an honest big mother-in-law.
After that, Shiwoo briefly reported on how the twins had been doing while they were away and how they were getting along with other lovers. He then returned to the officetel to prepare for his departure.
3.
On the top floor of the Periwinkle Hotel, which boasted the highest-class facilities and amenities even among the five-star hotels in Gwanghwamun, Albiereo was sipping her drink in a private bar that minimized indoor lighting to maximize the outdoor night view and scenery.
Albiereo was sitting alone, having rented out the entire bar after business hours and even dismissing the bartender. If anyone had seen her, they would have been mesmerized and unable to take their eyes off her.
Her mysterious violet eyes and the way she had casually tied up her hair, yet still looked so elegant, made even the interior decorations of the bar, which should have been flashy, seem faded.
“……”
However, there was a somewhat out-of-place object in this scene that looked like a scene from a photoshoot.
It was a pink silicone mass placed on a high table where one could rest their arms.
The scene of a woman who combined the charisma of a successful businesswoman and the beauty of a femme fatale poking a male masturbatory aid with her fingertips was like an AI illustration with a faulty algorithm.
For Albiereo, who was always burdened with all sorts of work, sipping a drink in a quiet place was one of her important relaxation routines.
Originally, Deneb should have been by her side…
But these days, their relationship was strained due to various problems.
Instead, Albiereo was looking around at the Moonahole she had confiscated today.
Although it was said to have been made for fun, it was an artifact imbued with self-magic by a 22nd-tier witch.
It was inevitable that she would be curious.
After finishing her observation and contemplation as a witch, Albiereo put her finger inside the Moonahole.
“Hmm…”
It was quite stiff without lubricant, but the sensation was really connected.
It was similar to the stimulation that Deneb had felt during intercourse.
It seemed that if she applied pressure and friction through continuous repetition, she could obtain meaningful pleasure.
Once linked, there was no limit to the effective distance.
Since it was self-magic, it was difficult to analyze in detail, but she could understand that an ‘absolute power unrelated to magic’ was acting between the Moonahole and the linked person.
But that was as far as her interest went.
Albiereo quickly lost interest in this Moonahole.
It wasn’t that she was particularly interested in sexual pleasure, and she couldn’t think of a reason why she would have to go through such a cumbersome process.
Albiereo, who had been busy attending various meetings and parties recently, returned to her room.
“Should I close my eyes for a bit…”
Albiereo, having carelessly shoved the Moonahole into her luggage, changed her clothes and lay down on the bed.
Just as the sound of her even breathing began to fill the room,
A rustling sound began to echo from a corner of the dark room.
The identity of the person rummaging through Albiereo’s luggage like a stray cat was none other than Deneb.
“…This is it.”
The Moonahole was an object that couldn’t attract much attention from Albiereo, but it was different for Deneb.
Deneb, who had received intelligence from the twins that Albiereo had acquired a rare artifact, had infiltrated the room.
It might not be useful right now, but there would be a time to use it someday.
Having obtained what she wanted, Deneb quietly disappeared, just as she had appeared.
