Chapter 248 – Chapter 23 – Back
“… So, as a result of combining the information with the red tarantula, it seems that the emperor of the empire has died.”
Kneeling in front of Klaus, Lire reports the situation so far.
Now he was in and out of the academy to the point where he looked down on the boundaries of the academy.
As she mixed her body with Klaus, her ability to stealth grew without realizing it.
On top of that, Kayla, who was recognized as a family member and a member of the group, continued sparring at the Devil Castle.
Planche also taught me a more reliable way to infiltrate.
Every time he succeeds in his mission, a certain reward follows, so he himself worked hard.
Thanks to that, Lire’s overall skills were now much higher than in Shadow.
“Therefore. How is the Empire?”
“It looks like he’s trying to hide it. In a situation where there is no heir to succeed the emperor, and even when there is no one in the imperial family, if that word comes out, you don’t know what kind of fight will break out between the nobles.”
“It will happen and remain. There are families that are related by blood to the imperial family, so they will claim the right to rank each other, and there will be people who want to get on top of it and get something to eat.”
“The kingdom doesn’t seem to know that yet. But that won’t last long, and soon the great noble families will have the information. Coincidentally, their king is also senile, but since there is no worthy successor, they will try to find a countermeasure after seeing how the empire works.”
“It’s just an empire, a place that’s more run-down than a kingdom. I don’t know what the hell you’re trying to learn from.”
On the human side, there are two great collectives, empires and kingdoms.
But why is there so little mention of empires compared to kingdoms?
It was because the empire was only an empire in words, but in reality it was worse than a kingdom.
The nobles became more corrupt, the people died more, and the aftermath of the Continental War was hit directly, and the few loyal ones were swept away.
The reason they were able to hold on when they deserved to collapse at any moment was because the other Western Unions didn’t want them to collapse.
If the empire collapses, who will eat the territory, which is not vast, but is not small either.
Who is responsible for the countless refugees pouring in from there, and who is carrying those who are riddled with all sorts of problems?
“The kingdom situation. What is the trend of nobles?”
“Looking at the atmosphere, it seems that the two factions are still fighting. Let’s further improve relations with the East. On the contrary, it should not continue to connect with the east. I mean these two.”
“Lir, how do you see it?”
“Yeah?”
“The moderate faction, which speaks of improving relations with the East, and the hardliners, who want to end relations with the East even now. Which of them do you think will win?”
Are you surprised by the sudden question? Or was I surprised that Klaus wanted to hear my opinion?
Lire looks visibly embarrassed, then opens her mouth cautiously.
“Hey, Klaus. How can you ask the opinion of a woman like me…”
“You and the red tarantula are both running on the spot. You guys are just people who follow orders, but at the same time, you are the first to feel the situation or atmosphere there. That’s why I’m asking for your opinion. How do you see it, and why?”
“I have so many shortcomings compared to others…”
“Lir.”
She catches the woman who keeps trying to back away by the man calling her name.
I’m not asking you if you can or can’t.
I’m ordering you to speak your mind, so be honest.
At Klaus’s reaction, Lire hesitated for a moment before opening her mouth.
“… Maybe… Those who want to sever ties with the East are likely to win.”
“Yes? The reason is?”
“That…”
“I hate guys who hesitate. Even if you understand being careful, if you can’t throw away that caution even at the moment when it becomes harmful, you have a lot of problems. Lir, are you that kind of guy too?”
When Klaus asked that, Lire vigorously shook her head.
She felt that if she admitted it, she would also accept that she was lacking, and if that happened, she might be kicked out of Klaus’ side completely.
Lire, who had been organizing her thoughts for a while, then slowly parted her lips and explained her reason.
“Because groundless hardliners work better for the average person than rational moderates.”
“…”
When Lire finally answered, Klaus didn’t react much.
He was just staring at Li-Ri without saying anything, but thanks to him, Li-Ri was getting more and more nervous even after he answered.
Could he have made some mistake? Did he even give the wrong answer?
He was filled with all sorts of worries, and at last, Lire hurriedly bowed his head to the floor.
“Sin, sorry! Sorry, Klaus! My, I was talking nonsense with my lack of knowledge! I beg you to forgive me for my foolishness! Please…”
“Lir.”
A man who cuts me off and calls his name.
Lire shuddered and hoped that the worst would not come out of his mouth.
I just found a place to lean on, and he is still a scary and fearful person, but if he lives up to expectations, he is a man who will be more reliable than anything else in the world.
I was so worried that his heart would explode, perhaps disappointed in his own stupidity.
“Raise your head and wake up.”
It’s an order, it’s an order, so you have to follow it unconditionally, Lire’s body moves automatically.
She didn’t break the aphrodisiac or hypnotize her, but the woman who now belonged to Klaus perfectly without a gap stood up from her seat, her eyes shaking wildly.
Hot-.
“Ah?”
Suddenly, I feel my body swish forward and sucked in.
Just as I was trying to judge the situation, I suddenly felt something warm on my lips.
No way, before I even had the mind to think about it, the man’s tongue invaded next.
“Eww?!”
A very sudden kiss, because it was completely unexpected, the woman is upset at the moment.
However, as soon as the mind spreads that she must not rebel against this man, and that she does not want to do so, the female body that has been weakly resisting calms down.
Rather, he cautiously grabbed Klaus’s jacket and even pulled it toward me just a little bit.
Her cute gestures as a woman reveal all of her inner thoughts, knowing that this moment is not a dream and wanting it to last just a little longer.
“Ah…”
When the dreamlike kiss finally ends, a sigh filled with regret flows from the corner of Lire’s mouth.
I don’t know why Klaus behaves like this, but now the reason doesn’t matter.
It wasn’t harsh, it wasn’t harsh, but Lire himself was surprisingly gentle.
Her heart beats wildly, as if it would explode at any moment.
“It’s a prize.”
“Yes Yes… ?”
“That answer, you are alone, right? I haven’t heard from anyone else.”
“Yeah, yes. I thought to myself.”
“Why did you think that way, could you tell me if I asked you to tell me why?”
Then, after thinking for a moment, Lire explained why she had brought up such an answer.
No matter how reasonable the reasons are, those who are unfounded and hard-line cannot win.
After all, people are conscious of those who have a sharper reaction, so they try to be there.
Even if you think it’s wrong because you don’t want to pretend to be with them and hear hateful things, there are no people who say no, and that’s how you end up being swept away by each other.
“Even in the East, too. And also in the West. I’ve seen many of them. And I also used it. I am very sorry to the current Demon King, but… It’s a method that was very useful in the East. Most of them are on the side of the hardliners without knowing why… Yes!”
The man’s kissing flutters once again.
Embarrassed, Lir messed around once more and then calmly accepted Klaus.
Even stronger than before, he pulled on Klaus’s coat and gestured to him, asking if he could do more than this.
“That kind of look, that kind of judgment, it’s not bad.”
After parting his lips, Klaus gently stroked Lire’s hair and whispered.
To faithfully carry out my orders, to do it at all costs.
It’s a natural thing to do, and it doesn’t mean much anymore to give praise for it.
Rather, there must now be more results than that, and something to be gained in the process.
It was exactly what Klaus deep down wanted, and Lire met that condition admirably.
“Uh, uh… Ah…”
I don’t think I’ve ever hugged myself like this before.
Even in bed, they just pushed me hard, pushed me to the limit, and treated me like a mess.
The sight of Klaus holding him in his arms and cuddling him like a puppy was a huge shock to Lire, and it brought him a feeling of fullness that he had never had before.
Can’t we be a little bit more greedy?
He is still a sinner who tried to harm the demon king, a person who tried to do bad things to Klau’s lover.
He didn’t even expect to be forgiven, but in this way he keeps expecting more, becoming greedy.
“Ah… ! Ah, ah… !”
When Klaus’s hand touched her body, Lire reacted with excitement, not knowing what to do.
I think it would be nice to be violated like this, but it would be nice to be messed up like before.
Even so, she keeps thinking that she just wants to be in a normal male and female relationship for today.
“Isn’t there another report, Lire?”
“Ah! Whoops! Uhhh!!”
He gently bites Lire’s ear, and she gently licks it again, stimulating the female body.
Lire was at a loss as she was wrapped up in Klaus’s arms, but she seemed to have managed to understand what she was saying about her next report.
While barely restraining her flushed face and twisting body, Lire brought out another report from her.
“Huh! Black! Also, in the East… Cow, I brought you one piece of news! Oops! Came. Kaela Warrior’s Chief…”
“Okay. Maybe it’s ‘the time’. Did you say you would come to me soon?”
“Yes. She asked why, but she didn’t answer. Well, if I just pass it on to Klaus, he will understand everything…”
“Since we only pampered each other every day, we should take this chance at least once. On her way back East, she met Caela and told her. It doesn’t matter if you come, but please come as quietly as possible. When a tiger roars suddenly near the academy, it means you’re tired.”
“Sue, I understand… Ah!”
Finally, when the man’s hand grabbed her top, Lire let out a sigh.
Klaus smiled at the unspoken question of whether he would really, really do it.
If louder things happen, and if Yulia is always by her side.
Now I can’t even promise when I can hug you again.
So, I stood by the side like this with a patronizing thought for a day or so today.
“How can I do it? Lire. Can I just let you go on a mission? If not…”
Or, will I do what you so desperately wished for?
