Chapter 99 – Natasha’s Day (3)
“······Now. Oberon.”
“Oberon!! What are you trying to do now!”
Oberon continued to ponder.
Between the two, whose side should we take?
There has never been a time when I had as many worries as I do now.
Of course, the worries did not last long.
Oberon chose Leah. Feeling sorry for Natasha came out of her mouth.
The reality was unknown.
“I’m sorry. Natasha.”
“······Oberon.”
Slap.
The whip in Oberon’s hand moved immediately.
The moment the whip moved, it was aimed at Natasha’s back.
Natasha, who already had numerous scars, was left with a scar that could not be compared to any other.
There was no foreshadowing or consideration whatsoever.
Even bigger wounds remained in Natasha’s heart.
In fact, most of the wounds I’ve had so far have been a little painful, but not at an unbearable level.
But the pain now was absolutely unbearable. Uncontrollable tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.
Moreover, when she heard the voice of the woman who was helping her from earlier, her heart ached even more.
“Now. All you have to do is snap your wrist harder.”
She was called a maid, but the way Oberon spoke to her and the way she was held showed that she was not an ordinary maid.
‘······What on earth are we doing?’
I don’t know exactly, but that kind of relationship was similar to the relationship between myself and Oberon in the past.
But it was never like this.
Oberon, whom I was close to, was no longer there.
Natasha herself looked embarrassed in such an open square.
She looked like she wouldn’t even be a prostitute in her alley.
That fact continued to be mentally difficult.
‘······Oberon.’
She couldn’t get the words out of her mouth.
Rather than blaming Oberon, she took over and got involved herself.
Of course, even if it wasn’t my will, it didn’t change what had already happened.
Moreover, she couldn’t blame Oberon, because in a corner of her heart, she still loved and hated him.
‘Yeah, I’d rather hit him.’
Natasha wasn’t the type to be oblivious.
Considering the situation, if Oberon doesn’t hit him now, Oberon will be in trouble.
So, I was able to endure just the thought that he might not be sincere.
That’s what love was.
Slap.
The whip in Oberon’s hand moved again.
Still, it hurt less than before.
I thought so. Until I hear what follows next.
“I’m glad. Oberon, my unborn child will be safe.”
‘What?’
Natasha’s head turned when she heard Lia say it was her unborn child.
The gaze was directed towards Oberon.
It was like they were looking for an explanation as to what happened.
But Oberon avoided his gaze.
Of course, the process was quite different from Natasha’s thoughts.
‘Ai, what do you mean?’
Oberon was also confused.
The situation might have been better if I had just said that I had no idea what was going on.
But it wasn’t.
Oberon was so shocked that she couldn’t even think about it.
She just shook her eyes and looked away.
And that was the moment that completely drove the wedge in.
Natasha’s reason was momentarily lost.
‘······It’s all lies. Oberon, please tell me it’s a lie.’
But Oberon’s gaze was not directed at Natasha. Liara, who I mentioned earlier, was facing her maid. And to Natasha, there seemed to be a slight red blush.
Hong Jo was right. Except for the blush of embarrassment.
Lastly, something needed to be said to turn the situation around.
But no such words were said.
“······Well, now you need to get out of the way for the next step.”
Hearing the guard’s words become very polite unlike before, Lia moved her body while crossing Oberon’s arms.
Oberon did not give Natasha any attention until the moment she went down.
It was no different from a de facto declaration of the end.
After this, Natasha couldn’t even remember how time passed.
Meanwhile, Oberon, who had come down, looked at Lia and argued with her.
“Ah, what did you mean by what you said earlier? A child!”
Lia cried and spoke to Oberon, who seemed excited.
“······Yes? What are you talking about? You are talking about Oberon and my child.”
“So, what does that mean?”
In response to Oberon’s question, it was Leah who gave an expression that seemed like she had no idea what he was talking about.
“Huh? Of course, it’s because Oberon has cummed inside me several times.”
“Ah…”
Only then did Oberon think about how many times he had had sex with Leah.
Roughly, I’ve done it more than ten times if I can remember right now.
Moreover, unlike elf women, human women reproduced much faster.
The child became more well-made and grew faster.
‘······I thought I gained a little weight.’
I thought it was because she ate quite well when she was with Oberon, but it turns out that wasn’t the case.
It wasn’t that I gained weight, it was that I had Oberon’s child.
Oberon was frustrated.
Elves never encourage birth control. Although they were a race with very precious seeds, it was truly disrespectful to erase a child given to them by the God of Earth.
‘······What should I do?’
Above all, I could no longer stand in front of Natasha.
All of that was eating away at Oberon’s guilt.
***
After the sun had set, most people whipped Natasha and left.
It was now night, so it was time to close.
Royer appeared behind Natasha, who was still tied up.
“You endured it well. Let me forgive your sins.”
“······Is this you’re doing?”
Natasha spoke, even forgetting her identity as a prostitute.
“What are you talking about?”
Royer sighed as he looked at Natasha, who suddenly reacted strangely again.
“You put a woman on Oberon! That’s your fault too!”
“···Oberon?”
Royer smiled at something he had not even thought about.
‘Looks like that bitch was successful.’
Of course, I had no way of knowing how Natasha found out.
But that didn’t change the fact that Natasha was in despair.
All she had to do was reward her maid later.
The important thing now was to shake Natasha out of a situation that would never come again.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. I just sent your husband to a castle in the west. To make a promise to you, I even gave him an honorary noble title. That alone would have been very comfortable, but has he lost his temper?”
“······What?”
“I definitely misjudged one thing. If it were a noble title, there might be women rushing to fix it. Since he’s an elf, he’s probably good-looking.”
“······.”
“Of course, if I was thinking about my relationship with you, it would have been right to cut it off myself, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.”
“No more…”
“If you want, I can take that maid and have her executed. Of course, that won’t bring her husband back. Maybe it will change her hatred for you.”
“Say no more!”
Natasha screamed. It was a mixture of her anger and disgust at herself.
Meanwhile, Royer, who was watching, slowly approached Natasha.
Before I knew it, she was touching her hair and slowly bringing her pointed ear to her mouth.
“Natasha, you should take revenge too. What is left for you now?”
“······Are there any left?”
“Elves? Or the husband you loved? Nothing could protect you. How about becoming completely Aman’s instead? In that case, I will protect you at least.”
“······Really?”
“Of course. If you don’t believe me, I will also make you a covenant of promise.”
The Covenant of Promise was a magic that made an oath that could never be broken under the premise that the two casters agreed.
Cancellation was also a very difficult spell, as it was only possible if both casters agreed.
It was a magic that Natasha, who was both an elf and a wizard, could not have known.
Natasha was also quite intrigued inside.
‘······Should I just do it that way?’
Her husband, who believed what Royer said, abandoned her.
The elves are also starting to become quite rare now. I even felt a little lost as to why I had to be like this.
Now I had nothing to trust but myself.
Moreover, while I was working as a courtesan, I saw the nobles of the castle.
It looks like he is living a more comfortable life than he did when he was in the land of the elves.
When I think about it, I couldn’t have looked happier.
‘······Yeah, that might be better.’
At least, if I could avoid the current situation and receive proper treatment, that was enough.
When Royer wanted him, he was much more right to swear to him.
“Okay, Royer, I’ll do whatever you want. I’ll keep my promise.”
“As much as you want. Then let’s make a covenant.”
