Chapter 100 – The Later Story of Calliope (1)
It was an incredibly peaceful continuation of everyday life.
Sometimes when I run into Cale while walking down the hallway, he smiles at me and makes me run away, and every night, I alternately call Garcia and Reika at the same time, and sometimes I have a relationship with him.
… And now was pestering Emma, who had come to clean her room.
“…Shy…!Even…Bocchan…If you do this…You can’t…!”
“Did you wet your pussy a lot when you said no? Wasn’t that what you expected?”
“…Ah…No..! .!”
“Then shall we quit?”
I whisper as I remove her hand from her, and Emma tugs on her wrist from her.
“… Please continue.”
“Emma is cute because she’s honest.”
“…Shy..!..But…This…!…Forgive…I can’t…! .”
Emma, who has been in a good relationship for a while, suddenly spits lines that seem to come out of a lewd novel.
“…”
She doesn’t know what to say, so as she keeps her mouth shut, she glances at Emma.
He said he’s been in and out of the library lately, so he seems to be reading that type of novel.
I let out a short sigh and decided to match it to Emma.
“… Shut up and spread her legs her! Maid, are you saying you won’t listen to me!”
“…Huh…Ah…I understand…Yo…Forgive me…Brother…”
ㅡsmart
In an instant, Emma took off her panties and lifted her up when her knock rang out.
“This is Bocchan Alfredo.”
“…Hee! Gee, boss! Do.. Master.. Now.. Wait a minute! I… Am I not here?”
Emma is started by the sudden appearance of Alfredo and hides herself under the covers.
“Ehh…”
I shook my head, threw on my nightgown, and opened the door.
“Bocchan, did you have a good night?”
“Yeah, what about Alfredo?”
“I am always healthy. …By the way, who’s in the room?”
The quick-witted Alfredo glanced around the room with his eyes narrowed and called his name.
“Miss Emma.”
“…!”
A fluttering blanket as if advertised as hiding here.
She doesn’t think Emma will come out though she thinks she hasn’t been caught.
“…Miss Emma, stop coming out.”
“Hehe… Huh? Ji… Butler… Ah… How are you?”
Emma covered her body with a blanket and only her face her was sticking out.
“What are you doing there?”
“..That..So..Cleaning the futons… “
“Clean? Is that so? That’s great. By the way, what are those panties that are off there?”
“Hehe!”
Emma’s face flushed red as she checked her black panties on the floor, but Alfredo didn’t blink an eye at her and continued her words to her.
“…Emma, it’s good to play with the young boy, but it’s still work time. If you’re aiming for the head maid, you have to show more sincerity.”
“…Sin…Sorry.”
“Yes, you should be more sincere.”
I nodded at Alfredo’s admonition and helped with a word.
“…Bocchan, that’s why I said no…!”
Emma looks at her with her mouth open as if it were unfair.
But the unfortunate thing is me too.
It started, of course, with me stroking Emma’s ass as she was cleaning her room.
But is n’t that the fault of Emma, who twitched her ass while wearing a skirt so short that her panties her were barely visible?
And every time I stroked her ass her, Emma said, “Do… Bitch… You can’t do this…” But she’s obviously asking for more. How can that really not be!
Above all, at the end, she asked for more from Emma herself, so I was sure of my innocence.
“… I don’t remember.”
“Young master! Too much! Really! It’s too much!”
I spoke to Alfredo, ignoring Emma puffing her cheeks beside her.
“So what happened to Alfredo?”
“…The head of the household is calling the young master.”
“Father? Why?”
“I do not know. I’m just talking…. It looked pretty good though.”
I pretended not to know, but at this point, my father had only one reason to call me.
‘It’s confirmed.’
It means that Erden has been confirmed as the next family head.
It’s only natural.
If Garcia and Reika had let go in the scramble for family heads, even Cale would have to act on his own his, but Cale wearing a chastity belt would n’t have time to think of anything else.
“Yea, I got it. I’ll change my clothes right away.”
“All right. Shall I accompany you to your room?”
“No, I’m busy, but I don’t have to.”
“Yes, young master, then I will go back to work.”
As Alfredo put her head down and was about to leave her room, she was passed by Emma, who was neatly dressed in her clothes.
“…I… I’ll… Go clean… Again.”
“Oh, I almost forgot. Miss Emma is dedicated to cleaning the bathroom for a week.”
“…Eh! That…That’s what an apprentice…Maid should do…”
“You know?”
“…Yes.”
Emma rolled her eyes and tried to avoid it, but she was overpowered by Alfredo’s words her.
“Emma, do your best.”
As I comforted her by stroking her hair, Emma let her head drop.
“…Bocchan, I hate you.”
“Then, shall we stop?”
“… Continue.”

“I was honestly surprised.”
Eddard Calliope spoke naturally as he descended the stairs to the basement.
“What the hell did you use to solve what I’ve been thinking about for years in just a few weeks?”
Eddard’s question made my heart race.
Still, it’s hard to say that he trained his step-mother and step-sister in front of his father.
“…It was just an honest conversation.”
“If I had been someone I could talk to, I would have finished it long ago.”
“…”
I tried to think of an excuse, but I couldn’t come up with anything that would suit Eddard.
“…”
“…”
As the silence suffocated, Eddard smiled and said,
“Are you saying you don’t want to reveal it to your father… Yes, it must be that there are numbers hidden from you.”
“… Thank you for your understanding.”
“It’s done. More than that, the reason I called you is to give you a prize.”
“… Is it normal?”
“How far are you going to keep pretending? You must have noticed the moment you came here.”
Of course I was noticing.
The only thing at the end of these stairs is ‘Caliope’s Underground Warehouse’.
“It’s all here.”
When Eddard lifted the candlestick, a huge gate that looked like a shield, like the symbol of Calliope, appeared.
“Stay back.”
As I took a few steps back, Eddard slashed the tip of his finger with the dagger and landed it on the handle in the shape of his wolf’s head.
Kuku kuk kuk—!
At that moment, the pattern engraved on the door creates a debt and starts to open with a big vibration.
Eddard said with a chin gesture.
“…Go inside and pick one you like.”
“Can I really have anything?”
“Yeah, didn’t I tell you at the beginning that rewards and punishments are important. We prevented the tragedy of brotherly love, and this is natural.”
“Then I will not decline.”
I only looked around the warehouse briefly, but there are so many things I want to have.
‘Baldur’s spear, dragon sword… And even a rooster’s staff.’
True to the name Calliope, none of the items in the warehouse were treasures.
‘But yet…’
After watching the treasures for a while, I went inside without hesitation.
Then, he caught the small water drop-shaped crystal enshrined in the deepest place.
“I will do this.”
“… Do you know what it is?”
I nodded at Eddard’s question.
「Frost Essence」
An item that increases the affinity and ability of the freezing type and gives resistance to the cold.
That is to say, it is a product that makes it possible to achieve at least a cold acupuncture out of cold and cold acupuncture.
“There are so many other nice things, do you really need to have them?”
“I like this.”
“…Haa, how did you know this again… Yeah, how do you plan to use ‘Frost Essence’? Are you sure you don’t intend to sell it?”
“Of course I intend to eat it.”
“…Eating?”
Eddard’s expression hardened for the first time.
“Can not be done. I cannot allow you to eat.”
“Anyway, there’s no other way to use it, right?”
“You can also make weapons or armor.”
“Essences are too precious to use like that. The effect will be reduced, but can’t you mimic it with magic? Eating is the best.”
“Don’t think of it like an ordinary elixir. You could die if you don’t.”
“Sometimes you have to take risks.”
Eddard glared at me as if he would never allow it, but I didn’t back down and looked at him.
There is a 10% chance of side effects when consuming ‘Frost Essence’ from ‘Aka Assistant Teacher’.
However, the lower the ability, the higher the chance of side effects, so if it were me, it would be about 15%.
The side effect I’m talking about here is death, so it’s about a 15% chance of death.
It’s a probability that can’t be said to be absolutely low, but I was confident.
“Even if you see the future, you can’t see the heart of your father who is burning up….”
Eddard let out a long sigh and continued.
“…I get it. Do as you please.”
“Thank you.”
“Eat now instead. If there are side effects in front of my eyes, I can do anything.”
“All right.”
It didn’t matter where I ate it anyway, so I immediately swallowed the ‘Frost Essence’.
“…!”
It feels like a whole glacier came along the esophagus.
A sensation that is not cold enough to be considered hot.
The moment the essence lands on your chest, a freezing chill spreads through the blood vessels throughout your body.
‘Side Effect..!’
Awesome—!
White breath flows out and frost settles on your lips.
Seeing this, Eddard raised his eyebrows and shouted.
“What a fool! So didn’t I tell you! Wait a moment!”
“…Now…Wait…Wait…”
Eddard touched my body and tried to take away the cold, but I held back with a stiff mouth.
If we drive out the cold right now, both Eddard and I’s lives are in danger.
‘…Hurry up.’
The frozen lungs gave me a tearing pain every time I breathed, but I was sure.
That it will appear in a little while.
Around the time when the cold made my mind go crazy…
