Chapter 1035 – Estoria’s Secret 3
“… Ah, uh… Uh, uh…? “This place…?”
It’s not an unfamiliar ceiling, but it’s a portable chandelier that I’m not yet familiar with. And a luxurious bed made just for you.
I don’t know when she returned, but after confirming that she was in her own bedroom, Estoria slowly stood up, touching her throbbing head.
“Are you awake, Leah? Ruler. First, drink some water.”
“Uh…? Roland…? Sssss, haa… Yes, yes. Thank you…”
Was he waiting for Estonia to wake up?
Before she even realized she was next to him, Orlando stood up and handed a glass of water to Estoria.
I haven’t even fully grasped the situation yet. But the first thing you see is Orlando’s bitter expression.
As she looked at Orlando’s expression and drank the water she had been given, one by one, Estoria began to recall the events of her return.
‘What a crazy bitch… What on earth have I done…?’
At first, I was planning to just drink one or two drinks and get up properly.
However, the sight of a vulgar bar that she had never seen in her life and the taste of beer that seemed to seep into her body, she was swept away by the atmosphere of Esttoria.
Even her conversations with the demons didn’t feel that uncomfortable, so at some point, she didn’t even think about going back to Estonia.
I was definitely shocked by the absurd sight of the bathroom. But even so, she never thought of going back.
No, rather than going back, she continued to drink. She used that embarrassing bathroom three times.
Inferior male toilets, which I was very reluctant to use because they were burdensome. Drinking in Estonia lasts long enough to use that toilet three times.
In the end, when Estonia left her bar, it was around sunrise, which was closing time for her store.
“… What on earth have you been drinking so much? A person who doesn’t usually enjoy drinking that much…”
“Oh, no… I… That…”
“Of course, I know it wasn’t your will. Still, you’d better be a little careful. If other knights see you like that, it will be quite a pain…”
But the real problem is not when Estonia returned.
She had been drinking all night, so of course she was completely drunk by the time she returned to Estonia.
Her real problem wasn’t the fact that she was wandering around at night. It was true that she drank to the point where she became speechless.
No matter what country it is, females tend to view being modest and discreet as a virtue.
Especially for noble females who care about honor and dignity, these are the basic qualities of a female.
That’s why showing up drunk is like a kind of social suicide for aristocratic females. But the queen, and not just other nobles, drank all night in a bar with her demons?
Orlando was scared to even think about what would happen if even a rumor got out.
“Tsk. That monster… He forces you to drink like that even though he knows your identity…”
“… Uh… Me, Ro, Roland…”
“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think we should leave that monster alone. Of course, we have to deal with it before the Human Demon Festival ends…”
A noble female wouldn’t get that drunk even in her own home.
However, Orlando grits his teeth and shows his displeasure at having the queen drink so much.
Even though it is in front of Estonia, the intense anger that appears on her face is as if she is thinking of an enemy.
This wasn’t just because she drank a lot of alcohol.
Anyone who looks at her can tell that she is drunk. Estonia returned after being embraced by the devil.
This was because the sight of Estonia embracing the Demon King while being very drunk greatly trampled on Orlando’s pride as a male.
“… Uh, Roland… No, er, that…”
Estonia sensed that Orlando was angrier than ever, so he stuttered as if he was extremely sorry.
I don’t know if it’s fortunate or unfortunate. Estonia was now remembering everything that had happened while she was drunk.
The faces of the female demons who were toasting together. Inferior male toilets that were really burdensome.
In addition to clinging to the demon king who massaged her breasts while drinking, she even hugged his large body while she was returning.
These are shameful actions that you obviously did, but you don’t know why you did them. Those actions were making Estonia feel uncomfortable, as if she had committed some great sin.
She wouldn’t be so uncomfortable if she didn’t remember. Estonia is the type of movie that doesn’t stop playing no matter how drunk you are.
No matter how much I drink, it only makes me feel better. It was her drinking habit that even Estoria herself was unaware of.
“Well, then, no… Roland…! J-now, that divine beast is…!”
But. No matter how sorry you are to Orlando, you have to tell what you have to say.
Estonia hesitated for a moment at the sight of Orlando’s anger. As if she had made up her mind, she revealed something that Orlando did not know.
I don’t know what the hell they did. The devil who sneaked in last night and filmed himself and Orlando copulating with a magic tool.
When he was told that he had even found out about the current princes and princesses, Orlando broke into a cold sweat and began to be greatly embarrassed.
“W-what…!? Even princes and princesses…!? Hey, hey, monster…! How can the castle barrier…!?”
It can only be embarrassing.
The affair between Orlando and Estoria did not just happen.
She had to put in a lot of effort to change Estonia’s troubled mind. What Orlando put more effort into than anything else was the means to avoid the attention of others.
In particular, the types of barriers were special types certified by wizards who had personally visited the magic city of Jurgen and rescued them.
It is not just a barrier that prevents someone from trespassing. Blocking sight or sound. And a warning barrier that lets you know when someone approaches.
In addition to those barrier magic tools, dozens of types of security magic tools were the fruits of efforts to enjoy an affair that should never be caught.
Thanks to such thorough preparations, we were able to maintain our relationship with Estonia for decades. But in a place like this, why did you get caught by that monster?
It’s also puzzling that the Demon King secretly sneaked into this temporary castle. Now, to Orlando, it was an even more embarrassing fact that the Demon King had nullified the magic tools he had prepared so thoroughly.
“This person…! Crazy guy…!! Well, you have to kill him right now…!!”
“Now, just a moment, Roland! You can’t do that!!”
“Don’t worry! Because I’m not saying I’m going to visit you right away! The next time we meet, if you show your back, that’s when I’ll cut that guy’s head off…!!”
“Well, that’s not it! There must be someone else who knows besides that divine beast, right!? “We have to figure that out too!”
He looks like he’s missing something. Estoria calms down Orlando, who seems ready to run away at any moment.
She grabbed Orlando’s arm, who was shaking as if he didn’t know what to do, and tried to persuade him as if he was looking for an excuse.
“I-I didn’t drink so much for no reason! “I’m planning on finding out about those things while pretending to get along with that new beast!”
“But, Lia…! That also means you have to hang out with that monster…!”
“I can not help it. Not only our lives, but our children’s lives are at stake! I, I will find the Baroness’s weak spot as much as I can! “Don’t get excited, just wait a little bit!”
I also realized it after talking about it. When Orlando gets angry, her perspective on her surroundings narrows.
The moment Orlando heard what he said, he could not think of anything else and was only thinking of having to kill Shinsoo.
The devil already told me to keep it a secret. Is it okay if I tell you this already? In the midst of such worry, Estoria touched Orlando’s arm as if to calm him down.
“Well, from what I’ve said so far, it’s not like the baronet wants to do anything to us right now. No, it is safe to say that they have no intention of threatening us or doing anything to us. “I guess your attitude was that the kingdom was a good thing?”
“Tsk…! No…! But, that monster…!”
“I don’t want to get too involved, but. Still, I don’t want to see war, so try to make peace with the demons if possible. That’s what the Baroness wants from us. So, don’t provoke them for any reason, but look for an opening…”
Without revealing that the devil had molested him. Estoria explains the devil’s attitude that she has seen so far.
If anyone who knew her saw her secretly thinking in her own good, it would be seen as if she was protecting the devil.
“Okay? He likes alcohol and women, so he makes them hang out together. Still, I don’t think I have any intention of doing more than that. So, while I look for the Baronet’s loophole, you pretend not to notice…”
“… Damn it…! I can’t believe I have to make you serve alcohol to such a monster…! What kind of shame is this…!!”
But without knowing that fact. Orlando thinks that Estonia is just worried about her and her children, and gets angry at her.
Even though he looks so angry. In fact, Orlando was in a state of great fear inside.
The fact that he not only laid his hands on the queen, but also committed treason against the king.
Even if it was his own fault. Still, Orlando was not a male who could act shamelessly after being found out.
In fact, for Orlando, the current king of the Kingdom of Reinhardt is his closest friend and older brother who helped him in many ways. Moreover, he is the male equivalent of the lord to whom he has pledged allegiance.
Although it was betrayal in the worst way. I didn’t intend to betray like this from the beginning.
But is it true that the human mind can be manipulated as it pleases? Orlando, who sincerely blessed her marriage to the king, was not interested in women other than Estonia.
He said it was just a one-time thing at first, but little by little he changed into something more bold. Somehow it ended up leading to chaos.
Actually, I could have quit there. For some reason, he didn’t do a paternity test and didn’t stop himself from being close to Estonia. In the end, Orlando turned his prince and his youngest princess into his own children.
Even if you are caught, Abeetus will forgive you if he is compassionate. They say that Abetus is bad for not being able to get Esttoria pregnant. He was making excuses for himself.
But now I haven’t been caught by Abeetus. A situation where I was caught by a completely unrelated devil.
In some cases, the situation could escalate to the point where the king would not be able to forgive even if he wanted to. No matter how Orlando he was, it was natural to feel fear.
“Ugh…! Yes, yes… Everything, for you, for me, for the children…”
It’s like he can’t admit that he’s scared. Orlando mutters as if it is something that cannot be helped.
Estonia, seeing Orlando like that, felt great relief and let out a sigh.
‘Thank goodness… I disobeyed the baronet’s instructions… But still, if this is it…’
It’s not that he calmed down Orlando. She was relieved that she could get away with disobeying the Demon King’s instructions without being caught.
What Estonia didn’t realize was that she felt more sorry for the Demon King than she did for Orlando.
“… Well, but Roland? Are you okay with the next fight? Even if we got caught by the baronet, our plan must proceed as planned…”
“Uh, um… Everyone was just hanging out as if they were on a trip, but since they came back yesterday, they’ve maintained a fighting stance. He’s been having a mock battle while guessing who his next opponent will be, so this time I’m looking forward to it…”
So, without even being aware of my own feelings. Estoria suddenly changes the topic of conversation and asks about the showdown.
The indecency of exceeding the limit of drinking for the first time in one’s life, and one’s own feelings toward the devil. It was a tearful sight of Estonia trying to forget them.
