Chapter 956 – #99. Three Thousand Concubines and Emperor Gaiden (14)
‘Are my skills crazy?’
I didn’t know that he was someone who wielded a knife so brutally.
When I kept looking at her face, it was vague what kind of woman she was, but it remained in her memory, so I remembered it.
Other than that, there was nothing particularly memorable about her.
She is the woman I held just like any other woman and has been fading out of my head little by little from the moment she entered the count.
‘The reason she hugged her a few more times… Was because she danced exceptionally well at the banquet.’
It is true that she was a woman who was good at moving her body in the first place.
I didn’t know that
However, it was difficult to guess that the fact that she was good at moving her body was hiding such outstanding skills.
‘Have you been rotting her talents in the palace after her?’
At that level, she should have become a knight, not a concubine.
But somehow she became my concubine and was ruining her skills.
‘The war broke out and it must have tickled. He must have wanted to show off because he’s so talented.’
Even if I think about it, I think I would choose a life that shows off my talents rather than living in the concubine palace looking only at me.
Rather, I felt sorry for wasting time in the concubine palace because of me.
“You’re being pushed. Shall we go over the wall like this?”
“No. Today’s over. It’s not the time yet. Let’s step back. And call that woman to my quarters.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
She was a woman who stood out in a chaotic battlefield, so it seemed that she was not confused about who I was talking about.
While the soldiers retreated, I moved to where the crown prince was.
The prince put an ice pack on her head and groaned.
It must have been quite a shock.
“How is your body?”
“You were shocked and your fever rose for a while. If you don’t overdo it and take a good rest, you’ll wake up right away. Medication has been prescribed to help you sleep comfortably.”
“You’ll be fine when you wake up, right?”
“Yes.”
“Okay.”
Just as people faint when shocked too much, the crown prince must have been in the same situation.
It was confirmed that there was no major problem with the body, so there was no need to worry anymore.
After returning from the prince’s hospital visit, I wiped off sweat and dirt in the prepared hot bathroom tub and entered the living room.
Since it was the residence of the emperor, it was not lacking in splendor even though it was hastily made into a tent.
Despite being on the battlefield, various expensive items were placed in the emperor’s place, saying that the emperor’s authority must be established.
I told you not to spend too much extravagantly, so I made sure to remove the useless things as much as possible and put only the things that are practical…
‘The luxury of the emperor is always beyond imagination. Where else did you get this from? Oh, just looking at the shiny thing, the price of a mansion will come out.’
These days, the courtiers who serve me, as well as the people around me, have been showing a strange look in their eyes.
The problem is that I think it’s because of the various rumors surrounding me these days.
Because of the tweaks made by the priests, we had no choice but to idolize me.
And why did it work so well for the soldiers of our formation rather than the enemy formation?
The courtiers’ attitude towards me became more polite day by day, embarrassingly hospitable.
‘Wasn’t this level good enough?’
Perhaps if this was the capital of an ordinary country, idolization would not have worked well.
But this is a battlefield where madness flows.
In a space where the ground is soaked with human blood, it was a better place for instincts and emotions to run amok rather than cold-blooded reason digging into it.
‘People are taking idolatry more seriously than I thought.’
Sometimes there are soldiers looking at me and praying.
Every time they went to the battlefield, they firmly believed that I would save them.
It is because every time I stepped out, I showed an action that turned a crisis situation that looked like it would be defeated at once.
I started with the intention of reducing the rumor that I was a demon contractor, and I felt a sense of crisis that I would really become a messenger of God if it continued like this.
‘Is it a sense of crisis?’
Destined to burn the body on the battlefield in a flashy way anyway.
It didn’t seem like a bad thing to become a ‘legend’ to those who remained.
Of course, it would be a very tragic thing for the Geos Empire, not our people.
“Your Majesty~”
“Come in.”
I heard a voice calling me from outside.
I recognized who was coming at once, so I told them to come inside immediately, and a woman came closer to me through the door opened by the court lady, with the scent of flowers in her wet hair.
“Your majesty…”
“I was wondering why you decided to leave the palace and come to the battlefield.”
I prevented her from trying to say hello to her according to her laws and gave her her word first.
“At first, I thought Jim wanted to see him.”
“Your majesty.”
“It’s only natural that once you gave up being a concubine, you won’t be given a second chance. Seeing you on the battlefield, they said Jim must have been sick with an axe. It’s amazing. You must have been rotting such a sparkling talent in the harem palace where the concubines stay. I didn’t know.”
“I’m sorry.”
In a way, she said she would not live with me in the future and she left the house.
In other words, I told her that she was cheating on me.
But seeing her again on the battlefield, it was unavoidable that the feeling was strange.
“Did you want to become a knight?”
“It was a dream when I was young. However, I have never regretted receiving grace from Your Majesty. I was happy when I was by your Majesty’s side.”
“It’s comforting to hear that.”
“But since Your Majesty went to war, I thought she might be able to help you in other ways.”
“Is that why you’re here right now?”
“…Yes.”
He certainly has the skills to think like that.
“Now that you have kicked off your concubine qualifications and came out, you won’t be able to hold me in my arms anymore. Won’t you regret it?”
“To His Majesty, her concubine is a being who can send her out at any time. However, I thought that she would be remembered forever as a servant who would walk the path of her blood by His Majesty’s side.”
He said that he would rather remain as one of my servants, even if he couldn’t be embraced, rather than become one of the three thousand.
“Is that the only thing you really want?”
“If the opportunity to receive grace by making a contribution comes every now and again… I think it would be perfect.”
He timidly confesses his wishes to me without hiding his shame.
If she didn’t mean to do that and cut off the pretense, she really tried to do it, but she felt rather cute when she shyly confessed her wish like this.
The hardest thing for soldiers on the battlefield was to soothe their blood-hot bodies.
In this world, mainly women fight, so I tend to give them adult tools so they can spend time alone.
If you forcefully suppress your sexual desire, it will only make it harder to discipline the barracks.
Soldiers are in a situation where they are solving their sexual desire with tools, but I cut off women right after the war started.
If you want to hug a woman here, you have to touch a soldier after all, but what would happen if you hug a woman in a battlefield where you don’t know when your neck will run away?
‘No matter how much I don’t give affection to them, mixing them once is very meaningful.’
As a servant, I was reluctant to send that soldier to a dangerous battlefield, and there was no guarantee that there would be no harm in the death of the woman I had mixed flesh with.
It’s not the main body anyway, it’s living as a double body, but I thought there was no need to solve the sexual desire, so I was sealing the lower part.
But here was a woman who had already mixed flesh with me.
Even though she’s a woman who kicked out her concubine position, isn’t that what she did because she didn’t like me?
“I made a great performance today… I will spend the night with you if you wish.”
“!!”
Her eyes widen as she readily accepts my request.
Where did the figure of the warrior who had ruthlessly slaughtered the enemy just before go, and a shy woman was standing in front of me.
“So, the concubine will serve you diligently.”
“If I have Jim’s child, I will bring him into the concubine again. Will that be okay?”
“…If that happens, I will accept it as if my destiny lies there.”
Even if she said this, I had no intention of getting this woman pregnant.
I just wanted to see how determined she was.
Even if you go back to being a bird in a cage, don’t you want to be hugged by me?
There was no reason to refuse any more.
I grabbed her by the wrist and laid her down on the soft bed.
“The smell of her blood did not go away.”
Her hair smelled like flowers, but her fingernails were stained with dark red blood that hadn’t been erased.
And the smell of her blood on her skin made it impossible to guess how many lives she had taken today.
“Should I have put on more of her cologne…?”
“No. Isn’t it a scent suitable for a battlefield? Maybe it’s because I remember you brandishing a sword, so I’m more excited.”
“Did you see me fighting?”
“Among the many soldiers, you stood out the most. The spot where you passed was stained with blood.”
“…It wouldn’t have been a nice sight.”
“Did Jim look so weak? Rather, it was beautiful. To the point where I want to put you on my bed right now and ride on it.”
I wash my body in a hurry to come to me and take off the clothes that are moist because I put on clothes.
Her skin was soft and moist because everything that had taken care of her when she was a concubine had not yet disappeared.
“I’m sorry.”
And her biometrics, which were in small detail, were proving how dangerous she had been in the battlefield today.
Since she had to serve her emperor, her body had vital organs, so from her point of view, it must have felt like a huge disrespect.
