Chapter 810 – 810. Plum Blossom Sword Master Reincarnated Into The Baek Family
Around midnight, Kyle went outside.
He felt frustrated by the situation that wasn’t going well and his thoughts about Yuria. He hoped that the cool night air would ease his frustration, so he slowly wandered around.
“K, Kyle-nim!”
“W, what brings you here…?”
The soldiers who encountered Kyle while patrolling were flustered and stood at attention. It was understandable that they were taken aback by the sudden appearance of the supreme commander while they were on guard duty.
“Don’t be nervous. I just came out because I couldn’t sleep. I’ll be back soon, so just carry on as you were.”
“Y, yes, sir!”
Kyle walked wherever his feet took him. He ended up heading towards the forest. It wasn’t a deep forest. The soldiers’ tents were right next to it.
‘Coming into the forest calms me down.’
Memories of his past life came to mind.
When he couldn’t sleep, he used to walk in the forest like this. He liked the quiet forest and the coolness. He often encountered wild animals like boars, but they were no threat to him, who had mastered martial arts.
‘This… I think I’ve gone too far. I should head back now.’
He was about to turn around when he sensed a presence ahead.
Kyle’s face hardened. They were in the middle of a war. It could be enemies trying to scout their forces. Kyle hid his presence and cautiously walked forward. If they were enemies, he would capture them and extract information.
“How is it outside? Isn’t it refreshing?”
“Yes… It’s nice and refreshing to take a night stroll with you, honey.”
They were familiar voices.
His younger brother, Eugene, and Yuria’s voices.
Kyle felt like his heart had stopped. A sense of foreboding surged. The truth he had been trying to deny, the truth he didn’t want to know, was right in front of him.
‘…It’s the same as me. They just came for a walk because they couldn’t sleep. It’s just a coincidence, so I can just go and have a short conversation and go back together.’
However, unlike his thoughts, Kyle didn’t reveal his presence. He hid it even more thoroughly. He even suppressed his breathing as he slowly approached.
Eugene and Yuria were sitting at the base of a tree. More precisely, Eugene was sitting on the base of the tree, and Yuria, wearing a maid outfit, was sitting on Eugene’s lap, leaning into his embrace.
Kyle stopped. He stared at them with wide eyes. Their atmosphere was not that of a normal master and servant. Their eyes, as they looked at each other, were filled with warmth. They were lovers.
He was faced with a sight he didn’t want to see, a truth he didn’t want to acknowledge.
His chest felt tight. It was as if a dagger had been stabbed into his throat. There was something unpleasant in his heart.
‘Just now… what did Yuria call Eugene just now?’
His mind was a mess. He couldn’t remember what Yuria had just said.
Eugene’s left hand, which had been holding Yuria’s shoulder, gently stroked Yuria’s cheek. Yuria didn’t reject Eugene’s touch. Rather, she smiled softly and enjoyed Eugene’s touch.
Seeing her smile, Kyle clenched his fist tightly. Anger. He felt an inexplicable anger.
“Honey. I love you.”
Kyle bit his lip.
“I love you too, Yuria.”
Eugene and Yuria kissed. They closed their eyes and rubbed their lips together. Their lips slowly wriggled, then parted, and their tongues intertwined.
Ten seconds passed, thirty seconds passed, a minute passed, but their kiss didn’t end.
‘…I, I have to congratulate them. As a brother, I have to congratulate Eugene and Yuria’s relationship.’
His clenched right fist trembled. His fingernails were digging deeper into his palm. He should be in Eugene’s place. He, not Eugene, should be whispering love to Yuria. A shameful emotion he wanted to hide kept trying to surface.
‘L, let’s go back. This isn’t where I should be. Yuria will be happy with Eugene. If Yuria is happy, then I’m fine. I… I’m okay with that.’
He tried to look away. He could just hide his presence and go back to his tent and sleep. He was going to confess to Yuria after the war, but now that things had turned out this way, he could just give up. If he buried his feelings, no one would know.
But then he noticed Eugene’s right hand moving. His right hand moved towards Yuria’s chest. The large hand grasped Yuria’s ample breasts. His fingers kneaded her breasts.
“Uhh… Hmmm…”
Yuria let out a small moan. To Kyle, who was focused, even that small sound was clearly audible.
Their lips, which had been pressed together, parted. The silvery thread that had been stretched slowly broke.
Kyle wanted Yuria to get angry. He wanted her to slap Eugene’s cheek for touching her chest without permission and run away. He imagined Eugene getting angry and starting a fight with Yuria… and then he would appear, knock Eugene down, and run away with Yuria.
But reality was completely different from his wishes. Yuria wrapped her arms around Eugene’s neck.
“Ah… It feels good… Honey, touch me more.”
Eugene’s hand went down. The hand that had been kneading her breasts moved to Yuria’s thighs and then went under her skirt.
“Yuria. Can I touch you here too?”
“It’s okay. Touch me wherever you want. I’m… yours, honey.”
Eugene’s hand moved under Yuria’s skirt. It touched her thighs and then went deeper.
Blood was drawn from Kyle’s hands and lips. He had squeezed them too hard. He watched Eugene’s actions with wide eyes. Unfortunately, he couldn’t see exactly what his hand was doing because it was hidden by her skirt.
“Yuria’s here is incredibly hot and wet.”
“Haaang! D, don’t put your fingers in…!”
“Really not?”
“I, it’s okay. Touch me as you please. Hmmm…! Your fingers… feel good, honey.”
Squish, squish.
A sticky sound came from under Yuria’s skirt.
“Honey… Kiss, kiss me…”
“Yuria really likes kissing. How many times is this today?”
“But… kissing is so good.”
“I can’t help it. Now, open your mouth.”
“Yes.”
Smack. Slurp.
Squish. Squish.
Eugene and Yuria kissed again. Eugene’s hand was still moving under her skirt. Yuria trembled and focused on the kiss.
Kyle distorted his face and lowered his head. He could see something standing up between his legs, threatening to tear through his pants. Kyle tightly closed his eyes.
Betrayal towards Yuria, jealousy towards Eugene, self-loathing. All of those things mixed together and consumed his heart.
Kyle turned around and left. He carefully, carefully retreated without being noticed, then started running. He even used his light footwork to get into his tent in one go. Blood was flowing from his lips and palms.
Kyle didn’t wipe the blood and sat cross-legged on the floor instead of the bed. He recited the formulas of the Violet Cloud Divine Art to calm his shaking heart. But he couldn’t concentrate.
After repeating the circulation of energy for several hours, Kyle coughed.
“Cough.”
Blood was mixed in with his cough. Kyle’s eyes trembled.
‘No way… this is…!’
A Heart Demon.
In other words, he had fallen into Qi Deviation. It wasn’t so serious that his life was in danger. It was the first stage of Qi Deviation. His Qi and blood were just a little twisted.
‘…If I push myself too hard in this state, the Qi Deviation will become more serious. I need to control the Heart Demon and rest in a safe place.’
They were in the middle of a war. He couldn’t easily retreat. Kyle gritted his teeth.
•••
I watched Kyle’s back as he disappeared while kissing Yuria. From the middle, Kyle couldn’t hide his presence at all.
“Honey…?”
“Yuria. Let’s go back now.”
“Yes, honey.”
Yuria answered. But she didn’t get up. That was because my right hand was inside her skirt.
I pulled out my right hand. There was a transparent liquid on my middle and ring fingers. I put my fingers in my mouth and tasted Yuria’s love juice.
“H, honey…!”
Yuria blushed and grabbed my shoulder. I smiled slyly.
“It tastes good?”
“Ugh… I, I want to eat your cock too, honey.”
“I’ll let you eat it as much as you want when we get back.”
I held Yuria’s hand. Just that made Yuria smile and feel happy.
As we returned to the tent, I thought about Kyle.
‘I can roughly guess how Kyle will react… He’ll probably give up on Yuria. It would have been fun to play with him a little more… Oh well, it’s fine.’
From the beginning, I didn’t intend to use Kyle through Yuria. It was just unexpected that Kyle fell for Yuria. The fact that Kyle and I are brothers doesn’t change.
I rolled around naked with Yuria on the warm bed.
•••
The soldiers were moving busily. They were using tools to move the rocks one by one to be used in the catapults. Scarlett was leading the soldiers, directing them. It was hard to believe that she was a woman who had lost her virginity yesterday, she was so determined.
Of course, I was just watching the scene from afar. And next to me was Kyle. Kyle didn’t look well. He was sweating profusely, like a patient with a disease, even though he was just standing still.
“Kyle, are you sick? You look terrible.”
Kyle glanced at me. For a moment, his expression became complicated, then returned to normal.
“I’m fine. It’s a problem with my heart.”
“A problem with your heart? Is there anything I can do to help you?”
“…No. I can do it myself. More than that, I haven’t seen Yuria since earlier.”
“Ah, Yuria is sleeping right now.”
“Sleeping when it’s almost lunchtime?”
“She must have been very tired.”
“……She must have been awake until dawn.”
“Well, I guess so.”
“……”
Kyle opened and closed his mouth repeatedly. It seemed like he wanted to say something to me, but he soon gave up and turned his head.
The work continued until evening, and they decided to start the full-scale attack on Mavelot Fortress at dawn tomorrow.
•••
The catapults lined up in a row went to work. The rocks loaded onto the catapults flew through the air and fell into the river.
The enemies also seemed to have realized our intentions and were actively interfering, using magic to remove the rocks or throwing fireballs at the catapults.
The enemies’ interference was not very significant. The mages weren’t only on the enemy’s side.
Bang! Crash!
The rocks filled the river, creating a path of sorts. Scarlett signaled to me. I jumped up from my seat and shouted.
“Advance towards the castle!!”
The 3,000 slave soldiers ran forward, shouting a sound that was a mix of screams and cheers.
It was probably screams.
They had brains, so they must have known what would happen to them. But they couldn’t stop. They were slaves. They were slaves because they had no choice. Since I, their master, had ordered them to die, they had to die.
The slave soldiers were dying.
They were dying from arrows, from missteps, from falling into the river, and from magic. Their corpses filled the gaps between the rocks, forming a kind of bridge.
“This… this is… crazy. Eugene. How are you going to bear their deaths?!”
Kyle, who was next to me, was sweating profusely. He wasn’t normal. I suspected he had food poisoning or something.
“Brother. The slaves just died like slaves. The losses caused by the slaves’ deaths can be easily made up for if we win.”
“……Do you think of Yuria that way too?”
“Why is Yuria suddenly coming up?”
“Answer me!!”
Kyle glared at me.
I sighed and answered.
“Yuria is different from those guys. But… it’s the same in that Yuria is mine.”
“……I’m confused.”
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
I asked back, not understanding Kyle’s words. Kyle didn’t answer. He put on his armor and mounted his horse.
“Prepare for full-scale deployment!”
Kyle was ready to ride his horse.
A path was made over the river, and the full-scale siege finally began. My elite soldiers and Kyle’s army were deployed. Kyle’s knights climbed the walls and infiltrated the interior. They seized the gates and opened them.
The cavalry charged into Mavelot Castle.
“My lord. This is an opportunity to gain merit. Grant permission to deploy.”
Floy approached me and said. He seemed eager because the war was happening in front of him. I shook my head.
“…It’s okay. I’ve already gained enough merit.”
I crossed my arms and fell into thought.
Kyle had changed. I couldn’t explain exactly where or how he had changed, but… I felt like he had changed somewhere. Last night’s events must have been very shocking.
I wasn’t sure if this would be beneficial or harmful.
