Chapter 816 – 816. The Plum Blossom Swordsman Reincarnated Into The Baek Family
It had been five days since Terius and Nepia had started living together. Terius was in a good mood. Recently, Nepia had shown signs of adapting to her new life. She cleaned the house and seemed to get along well with the commoner women who lived nearby.
‘Just wait, Nepia. If I make a name for myself in the war and rise to a higher position… I’ll make sure you live a life that’s the envy of nobles. No, I’ll definitely become a noble and let you live as one too.’
This was Terius’s new goal. To achieve that goal, and to earn money, he went to the military even on his days off.
“Oh, Terius. You look awfully cheerful for someone who came to work on their day off? Did you have a hot night with your beloved?”
His fellow mercenaries, with whom he had worked, chuckled. Terius smirked. Vulgar jokes were part of a mercenary’s daily life. He knew that they didn’t mean any harm, even if they spoke like that.
“Yeah, every day is a happy one. What are you guys doing? It doesn’t look like you’re training?”
“They say goblins have been appearing outside the city lately. The higher-ups told us to take care of them. If you’re free, why don’t you join us?”
“…Can you wait 30 minutes? I have something to deliver to Captain Kyle.”
“30 minutes is plenty. We’ll wait at the entrance, so hurry back.”
Terius met Kyle and handed him the letter. It was a letter from a noble in the west, so Terius didn’t know the details.
“Good work, Terius. Here’s your salary for this month.”
“…But the salary is paid out the week after next.”
“I’ve heard about your situation. You’re having a hard time because of debt, right? Just take it without saying anything.”
“…Thank you, Captain.”
Terius received the money pouch, trying hard to hide his tearful voice. As Kyle had said, his situation was indeed difficult.
‘With this, I can live comfortably for a while.’
And Terius felt relieved after seeing Kyle’s face. There had been rumors lately that Kyle had changed, but other than his slightly darker aura, nothing seemed different.
‘His darkened aura must be because of the war. The captain hates war.’
After taking the money, Terius went goblin hunting with his comrades. The goblin hunt went smoothly. Terius alone took down seven out of fifteen goblins. The work ended at lunchtime.
“Terius. Why don’t you have lunch with us? I’ll treat today.”
“I’m going to eat a lot… is that okay?”
“Hehe. Of course.”
They headed to a tavern. It was a tavern that offered food, alcohol, and prostitutes. Terius only showed interest in the food and alcohol.
“Are you the famous one-armed knight who beheaded Baron Mavelot?”
“I did behead Baron Mavelot, that’s true…”
A prostitute clung to him. Her chest touched his shoulder. The perfume she wore seeped into his nose. Terius was troubled.
“Hehe. Leave him alone and come here. He’s been in love with someone for a long time, so he doesn’t even touch prostitutes. Ah, I guess it’s not someone anymore, but his wife. Hehehe.”
“Oh my, really? You’re a wonderful knight.”
The prostitute backed away. Terius felt a pang of regret, then was startled.
‘I shouldn’t be like this. I have Nepia.’
His groin slightly swelled. Although he lived with Nepia, she wouldn’t even let him touch her body. It was like having a delicious rice cake in front of him but not being able to eat it. He was frustrated.
‘Nepia will open up to me soon.’
After filling his stomach with food and alcohol, Terius left the tavern. He hadn’t drunk enough to get drunk, so his mind was clear. As he was heading home, someone called out to him.
“Terius. It’s good that I ran into you. Can you help me with something?”
It was Hans, the butcher.
“Help? What’s going on?”
“You know about the secret fighting arena in the east, right?”
“Everyone who needs to know does.”
The secret fighting arena.
It was a place where people fought each other. It was also a gambling den where money changed hands.
“The guy I was supposed to fight ran away, so I’m short on people. Can you go in his place?”
“Me? I’m a knight, though?”
Knights were restricted from entering such places. Knights were superhuman. Fights were only fun when the opponents were of similar skill.
“It’s not really something I should say… but you only have one arm. The arena champion is a top-tier aura user, so it’ll be an interesting match if you fight him. It’ll only be once, so please help me.”
“Still, me stepping in is a bit…”
“I’ll give you a generous reward. I’m really in a hurry. You’re the only suitable person.”
“A reward… how much?”
“2 million ner as a base. 5 million if you win, and if the reaction is good, I’ll give you a bonus.”
Terius’s eyes widened. The salary he had received this time was 6 gold coins, 3 million ner. He swallowed hard and nodded.
“…Just this once.”
“Thank you, Terius!”
Terius defeated the champion at the secret fighting arena and earned 5 million ner. He had a wound on his side, but it was something that would heal in a few days.
“Take this.”
“Huh?”
“It’s top-quality beef. Enough for about five servings. I heard your wife likes meat? Eat it together. It’s a reward for your good work today.”
“Thank you, Hans!”
Terius happily accepted the meat that Hans gave him. It was heavy. This was enough to feast on until tomorrow. He imagined Nepia’s happy face.
Today was a lucky day.
His steps were light as he headed home. If every day was like today, he would quickly pay off his debt and spend good days with Nepia.
As Terius approached his house, he felt a sense of unease. Yesterday, there would have been thick smoke billowing from the house, but today it was just chilly. There was no light either. His light steps instantly turned anxious.
He entered the house, which was devoid of warmth.
“Ne, Nepia! I’m home! I even got some good quality meat from Hans today! …Nepia?”
Nepia wasn’t there. Nepia’s luggage bag was also gone. He looked around the closet and bedroom, but she wasn’t there. He belatedly found a letter on the chair.
[To Terius.
Terius, I’m sorry.
I can’t live with you. This place is too dirty. Bugs are crawling around without a care, and there were even mice.
I tried to clean your bedroom and wash the bedsheets a few times, but I gave up. It’s too dirty. And you’re the same. I feel nauseous when you come near me. You smell dirty from your mouth and body. Please, I wish you would wash more often. If you wash often, you won’t get sick easily and you can live a long and healthy life.
It’s also hard to draw water from the well. Do you know how other people see me? As the wife of a crippled, one-armed knight. Even if I deny it, I’m still the wife of a crippled, one-armed knight. I’m sick of it. I can’t live in this house anymore.
I’m sorry, Terius. I’m going back to my master’s mansion. Thank you for setting me free. But I don’t need this kind of freedom. I will become my master’s slave by my own will, by my own choice.
Don’t look for me. Let’s end it here. I’ll live my life, and you live yours.
From Nepia.]
After reading the letter, Terius felt a surge of sadness and anger.
“Nepia…! You bitch…!”
The letter was crumpled and rolled on the floor.
Terius collapsed onto the floor.
“It’s… for the best. It’s for the… best…. Keuk, keueuk….”
Terius curled up and cried. Every time he was abused by the mercenaries, it hurt less than this. After a bout of crying, Terius slowly got up.
‘No. Nepia might have made the wrong choice by giving in to a moment’s emotion. Or… Eugene Pruker might have threatened Nepia!’
Terius left the house, rented a carriage, and headed to the Thebra Territory. He wanted to talk to Nepia again.
However, he couldn’t even enter the mansion. Eugene’s soldiers, who were guarding the entrance, wouldn’t let him in.
“I’ve heard your story. The master told me not to let you in. Go back.”
“Just once! Please let me meet Nepia and talk to her just once! Please! Just once, please tell Baron Eugene Pruker about my situation.”
“……I don’t know the details, but Nepia said she has nothing to say to you. Go back.”
“Nepia-nim? Nepia is…!”
“Nepia-nim is the acting head maid. She’s one of the top five people in the mansion. Even the knights don’t treat her carelessly. You’d better watch your words. And what kind of ruckus are you causing at this late hour?”
“…I’ll come back in the morning. Then… please let me meet the Baron!”
“It’s pointless. Go back. If you come back again, or if you don’t leave now… I’ll throw you in the dungeon.”
“……”
The soldiers’ attitude was serious. Feeling threatened, Terius had no choice but to retreat.
‘I need to find another way… another way. …If I ask Captain Kyle, will I be able to meet her?’
•••
The next evening, Terius returned home, exhausted, and slumped onto a chair. The warm home where Nepia had been was no more.
“……”
He was sitting on the chair like a corpse when there was a knock on the door. Terius weakly went to the door. There were the mercenaries from the Korea Merchant Guild he had met before. They all looked at Terius with pity.
“…What’s wrong? If it’s about the debt, I’ll pay it back someday, so don’t worry.”
“No. It’s not that today. The higher-ups ordered us to deliver this to you. Take it.”
“……”
It was a small box. Terius looked at the mercenaries with a puzzled expression.
“The higher-ups? Who?”
“I don’t know. I don’t want to get involved either. They said there’s a button on the top of the crystal ball inside the box, and you should press it. …Hey, man. If you work hard, good days will come. You’re a knight, aren’t you? Don’t make any extreme choices. I don’t want to feel uncomfortable again.”
The mercenaries left.
Terius took the box and sat at the table. He opened the box. His body trembled. There were two things inside. One was a crystal ball, and the other was the iron ring that Nepia had worn around her neck.
“Nepia…!”
Nepia had sent this box. And the reason the iron ring was included was….
Terius picked up the crystal ball with trembling hands. When he pressed the button on the top of the crystal ball, a video appeared above it.
It was Nepia.
No, to be precise, it was Nepia from a few years ago.
-Nepia. What day is it today?
Eugene’s voice, laced with laughter, could be heard. In contrast, Nepia looked nervous.
-It’s… my coming-of-age day. Master.
-Shall we begin the final ritual of the coming-of-age ceremony?
-Yes. Please take care of me, Master.
Nepia took off her maid uniform. Her white, beautiful naked body was revealed. She climbed onto the bed herself, grabbed her thighs, and spread her legs as wide as possible. Her smooth, small pink pussy was twitching, dripping with clear fluid.
Nepia spoke with a face mixed with nervousness and excitement.
-Master. Please take my virginity.
-Of course. But… that ring around your neck. It’s bothering me, can you take it off?
-Yes. I’ll take it off.
-It’s an important item, though. Is it okay to take it off?
-It’s not more important than you, Master.
Nepia took off the iron ring and threw it carelessly on the floor. Eugene’s chuckling could be heard.
-I’m going in, Nepia.
-Yes. Master.
A large cock slowly began to enter Nepia’s small pink pussy. Her pussy seemed to tear open as her hymen broke and blood flowed.
-Aaaah!
-Does it hurt a lot?
-It’s, it’s okay. Please put it all the way in! Master! I want to be your woman! Haaaaaaah!
The cock went all the way in, and Nepia’s limp body twitched. Nepia smiled as if looking at something lovely, even as she endured the pain while sweating.
Terius felt great despair that the smile wasn’t directed at him. He just watched the crystal ball with dead eyes.
-Master…. Please move.
Squeak, squeak.
A large cock violated a small pussy.
Terius blankly shed tears as he stared at the video, then lowered his hand. His hand went towards his groin.
-Ah, ah! It feels good! It feels so good! Master!
-Nepia. Your pussy is so tight and delicious.
Terius bit his lip.
From the beginning. From years ago. Nepia had forgotten him. He had been living by clinging to Nepia as his hope, but… Nepia hadn’t.
The video continued. 1 hour… 2 hours… 3 hours… It continued until dawn.
In the video, Nepia grew up, and she was constantly embraced by Eugene, making vulgar sounds.
And then.
-Terius.
Nepia called him.
She showed off the diamond ring on her left ring finger.
-Pretty, right? It’s nothing compared to the cheap iron ring you gave me. I wonder why I wore that cheap iron ring around my neck all this time…. I think I was really foolish. I’ll give you back the iron ring you gave me.
Eugene was behind Nepia. Nepia was sitting on top of Eugene. Her hand stroked Eugene’s thick cock.
-Look at this. It’s my master’s manly cock. I’m going to serve this cock today too.
-Nepia. Hurry up.
-Yes. Master. I’ll put it in now, now! Aah, aaaaah!
Nepia moved. A large cock went all the way into her pink pussy.
-Terius. This is the last time. I’m going to live as my master’s slave, as a maid. Someday, I’ll even give birth to my master’s child. Hmm…. About three? You should live your life. I don’t know who would love a dirty, crippled man like you… but someone will love you, right?
-Nepia. Your words are too harsh.
-Huh? I, I’m sorry. But Terius is really awful. The house is so small and dirty…. I felt nauseous as soon as I went inside.
-Hehe. Was it that hard to endure? Enough to come back after five days?
-I’m sorry…. I was going to stay with him for a week as per your orders… but I really couldn’t stand it.
-Well, that’s how all incompetent mercenary slaves are.
-Ah! Ma, Master! I’ll move! I’ll serve you, so please stay still!
Nepia slowly moved her hips as if tasting Eugene’s cock.
-Terius. I received 1 billion ner as a gift from my master this time. It’s so much money that I was wondering what to spend it on… I decided to buy dresses and accessories. I want to look good for my master too. Ugh. Your cock feels so good….
Nepia shook her body up and down. Fluid shot out of her pussy. Nepia lifted her head and kissed Eugene.
-Ugh…. Honestly, I don’t have anything else to say. I’m doing this video because my master told me to.
-Nepia. You should say a proper goodbye, though. You’re friends, right?
-Yeees. Master…. Please stick out your tongue… yees… smack… ugh….
They stuck together intimately. Eugene’s cock throbbed and ejaculated inside Nepia’s pussy. A large amount of semen dirtied her pussy.
-Did you hear that? This is the last time. After this, I’m going to have some serious, filthy sex with my master…. You can watch if you want. Well, goodbye. Terius.
Terius couldn’t turn off the crystal ball. He watched the video coming from the crystal ball with blank eyes.
-Aaaaaah! Master! My nipples too! Please touch my nipples too!
-Nepia. You’re really horny, aren’t you? Did you miss my cock that much?
-I missed it! I thought about your cock every second! Hmmm, aah!
-Hehe. You didn’t let that guy touch your body, did you?
-Terius? There’s no way I’d let that dirty guy touch my body. Ah! Let’s stop talking about that guy… and please fuck me more.
-As always, your tight hole is a delicacy. Nepia. Whose hole is this?
-My pussy and asshole are all for you, Master! My mouth, tongue, and breasts too. This body and soul are all yours! So please use me as you please, Master!
-Of course, I will. Hehe.
The video ended at dawn. Crack. The crystal ball split in half and shattered.
Terius was blank for a moment, then his face contorted. Tears streamed down his face. His mouth opened and twitched, but no sound came out.
The scream came out a long time later.
“Uwaaaaaaaaah! Aaaaaaaaah!”
