Chapter 698 – Ep.696 Tullius Empire
Fortunately, Marvius’ visit to the emperor did not happen.
This was because his physical strength was so poor that he collapsed from exhaustion before he could leave the palace. And it was a bonus that Lady Velma, who was waiting outside the door, came in with her arms around him as if she was carrying some kind of luggage and laid him down on the bed.
“Do you know how surprised I was when you suddenly ran out?”
“… Sorry.”
Marvius, calmly held in my arms, wiggled his fingers with a downcast look on his face.
“You’ve known for a long time that we decided to go to the Demon Continent, so why are you suddenly so surprised?”
“… When I realized that I had to stay away again, I did so without realizing it. “I’m sorry.”
“Wow, why are you so lovely?”
“Ugh…”
When I hugged her waist and placed my lips on the top of her head and the nape of her neck, our youngest princess immediately giggled shyly and loved it.
“Sister. “Why don’t you let Adrian go now?”
“I’m not really holding on to it.”
It was exactly what it said.
Adrian was just lying on his stomach on Lady Ravel’s thighs.
If I wanted to move, I was able to get off my sister’s thighs with my own will.
‘It’s not like a bear that got shot with a tranquilizer gun…’
Adrian, stretched out like a puppy who had pledged complete obedience, did nothing but flinch every time Lady Ravel’s hand tickled his toned abdomen or chin. Okay. He was so sick of it that he couldn’t even moan anymore.
“Put Adrian down on the floor and come here for a moment.”
“I am the elder.”
“That’s because you’re my sister.”
“Then isn’t it right for you, my younger brother, to come?”
“I’m a patient.”
“… “He is like that too.”
Other than a slight headache, I was perfectly fine, but I guess that’s okay. I felt like I knew how to deal with Ravel to some extent.
“Ugh…”
The older woman, who had literally tried to roll Adrian and dropped him on the floor, got up from her seat and came over to me and sat down on the bed.
“Sister. Do you know much about Nuitism?”
“So so.”
It was very subtle, but my sister’s ears showed a slight reaction.
“I did something wrong there?”
“I heard from Siran that I almost got kidnapped.”
“Me, kidnapped?!”
“Shhh.”
I continued speaking while stopping Marvius from convulsing again by placing my index finger on his lips.
“Well, there is that too. Actually, the biggest thing is when you come over to the empire. “Do you remember my daughter who gave me a blessing yesterday?”
“Of course.”
“When Winter was still on the Kernax ship. “Because of the trap they set up, we almost got into big trouble.”
“Big deal?”
The voice was light, but one of Ravel’s eyebrows was furrowed.
“I don’t know if it was blood magic or something, but they used a magic circle to cause an explosion. Fortunately, the carriage was strong and no one was hurt, but Kernax was so shocked at that time that his stomach hurt a lot… Should I say that because of that, I have accumulated a lot from Nuitism?”
“Justifiable anger.”
My sister’s wrinkled eyebrows returned to their original angle.
“So. Are you trying to ask me to kill you?”
“… It’s a bit weird to say something like this. “You’re really extreme.”
Then, Ravel’s eyebrows, which had become flat, formed a V shape.
“Brother. It seems like you don’t know much about me yet. “It’s embarrassing to say it with my own mouth, but I’m quite a thinker and good at compromising.”
The first thing that came to mind in response to that question was fluttering ears.
Isn’t the reason why my sister hasn’t been swayed by others until now because I haven’t dared to approach her? To the extent that I could think of something like that, my sister was vulnerable to arguments as much as she was unable to communicate.
It was enough to make me think this after only talking for half a day.
“After listening to what my sister said, I think I made a mistake. Sorry.”
“Hmm. “It’s nice to see someone quickly admitting it and apologizing.”
My sister’s eyebrows, which had become V, regained their calmness.
“Still, sister?”
“What. Brother.”
“I don’t think it’s good to say that everyone will be killed. “My sister will never make such a mistake, but if she ever says something like that in front of Winter, I will be very sad.”
“… “Be careful.”
“Thank you.”
“Hmm.”
Look at that.
My sister immediately avoided my gaze and pretended to look the other way.
‘After observing him slowly, he seems to be a very easy person to understand.’
I was able to figure out roughly what kind of thinking they had, and more than anything, it was very easy to set the mood because likes and dislikes were revealed through their ears and tail without having to observe their faces or actions.
“Then, coming back, the reason I brought up the story about Nuitism is because I wanted my sister to pay attention so that Kernax and Winter don’t get hurt while I’m away.”
“You were worrying needlessly.”
As I moved away from the unfavorable topic, she looked straight at me and wagged her tail as if she had never done that before.
“Brother. With the power of your other wives, it would be impossible to even invade the mansion unless you were Siran or a higher-ranking opponent. “No matter if the number exceeds tens of thousands.”
For reference, Siran is the third star of the Ten Demon Castles. So, it is said to be the third strongest on the continent. And the woman in front of me, Label, is the first.
“Other than your sister, that means there is one more person.”
“No need to worry about that guy. “Because it’s not here.”
“… ?”
Coo coo coo coo.
When I tilted my head, Marvius, who had been quietly playing with my hand, gently raised his head.
“The second star of the Ten Demon City is from the Demon Continent.”
“Aha.”
Then you can rest assured.
“And I will pay special attention to you while you are gone, so don’t worry too much.”
“Thank you.”
“Hmm…”
As I kissed his forehead, Marvius smiled happily and rested his head comfortably on my chest.
“And if they are you…”
My sister, who had been watching me and Marvius’ lovemaking for a moment with disapproving eyes, said something, then trembled and covered her mouth.
“Sister?”
“… “Let’s go back.”
It seemed like he was clearly trying to say something related to me, but since I couldn’t do anything about it with force, and winning the argument didn’t mean I could get out what he was trying to hide, I decided to just respond to Label’s sister.
“Okay. “I think it’s best to leave quickly for Adrian’s sake.”
Poor Adrian is curled up in the corner, wanting to be hugged by me, but unable to come closer because he is afraid of his sister next to him.
I can assure you that it was not simply fear of Sister Ravel’s presence, but it was clearly a behavior that stemmed from fear engraved in her body after experiencing a certain incident in the past.
“Marvius.”
“… “It’s unfortunate, but there’s nothing we can do.”
Marvius got up from my arms, grabbed my cheek, and kissed me with his soft lips.
“Please tell Leviel that sister Ravel has taken him.”
“Don’t worry.”
“Thank you.”
I kissed Marvius one last time and got off the bed. And then I approached Adrian, who was looking at me with eyes like those of a dog soaked in the rain.
“You were very surprised, right?”
“Yes…”
The voice was so soft, like a child about to cry, that it was so cute that I almost burst into laughter.
“Before I leave for the Demon Continent, I will invite you one more time. “Winter liked Adrian a lot.”
“… Baby. Good. “Cute and lovely.”
Adrian, who was hugging me tightly and burying his face in the crook of my neck, answered in a slightly calmer voice.
Side. Side. Side.
Next, I kissed Adrian’s forehead, bridge of nose, and lips one after another.
“Then I’ll go.”
“… Huh. Bye.”
Normally, Adrian would have stood up to see me off, but this time he didn’t even pretend to get his butt off the floor, let alone get up for a long time.
Maybe Adrian did his best just by not getting tired?
I left those thoughts behind and left Marvius’ bedroom with my sister.
“Heek?!”
And as soon as our Oren, who was waiting with Lady Velma next to her, faced her, she foamed at the mouth and collapsed.
Thanks to this, even Lady Velma, who was trying to say hello, had to bow her head silently with a nervous look on her face.
“Are you going to the mansion?”
In fact, the person involved didn’t seem to care at all.
“Uh. Please drive safely.”
“I always pay attention to safety.”
Lady Ravel’s tail gently wrapped around my waist.
“What about my eyes?”
“… “Close your mouth so you don’t bite your tongue.”
In response to my sister’s kind words, I shrugged my shoulders and kept my mouth shut, covering my eyes with both hands.
**
“How do you feel?”
“… Huh. “It was good.”
I couldn’t say anything bitter when I saw my sister with her ears perked up and her tail wagging.
Is it really okay to call it safe driving just because it has increased from 1 second to 2 seconds?
I already knew the answer to that, but I didn’t want to ruin the mood of Ravel, who was very proud, so I just quietly closed my mouth and pushed open the iron door.
“… Sister?”
However, there was no sign of anyone following me, so I turned my head, and before I knew it, my sister had left without saying a word. Her appearance was sudden, but her departure was also sudden.
“I’m here.”
I felt a great sense of déjà vu at the empty front door, with no answers or signs of presence.
‘It looks like everyone is having fun with winter.’
As I slowly walked up the stairs and felt the energy, sure enough, I felt the energy of my wife and my lovely daughter in the bedroom.
‘I want to see winter, but…’
I didn’t want to incur resentment from the other wives who were probably trying to get Winter’s attention, so I skipped the bedroom and headed straight to the bathroom.
‘Hehe, winter is my favorite day anyway.’
So, let’s be a little considerate so that we can get enough attention from Winter.
In the meantime, I have time to resolve some of the most important issues before leaving for the Demon Continent.
“Ugh, hot water is the best.”
After soaking in the bath, I stretched out my hand into the air.
The time has come once again to have a deep conversation with our seniors, whom we have finally started to become a little more attached to.
