## Chapter 762 – The Bellatude Countess

After securing a room, a maid soon brought me some clothes. Nothing special, just spare clothes that noble families keep on hand in case guests need a change of attire.

But the underwear was tailored to the Bellatude family’s women’s sizes. You don’t see chests like that every day, do you?

Anyway, Winia grumbled as she changed into the new clothes.

“Haa. I put so much thought into picking out that outfit, and it’s all ripped to shreds, seriously. What’s with that crazy bitch lunging at me like that? Fucking annoying.”
“Hehehe, come on. You were beating her up pretty good too.”

Winia was very aggressive, grabbing Zenia’s hair, striking her breasts with her palms, biting her wrists, and screaming to pressure her mother. Ripping her clothes was a given, and when she not only took off her bra but even tore her panties, I couldn’t help but be amazed.

The title of breast abuser was passed on to Winia that day.

“She deserved to be beaten. I feel so refreshed after beating her up, seriously. Fucking darkie. Does that make sense? How can anyone have parents like that?”
“She really wasn’t making any sense. I wondered why you left home, but now I totally get it.”
“That’s why she’s such a fucking bitch.”

She still seemed upset, grumbling non-stop. What could I do? It had been years since they’d seen each other, and nothing had changed, and then that whole mess happened.

If my dad had done that, I would have thrown him like a shot put.

“She’s got big tits, but she’s not generous at all. She’s good at business, but she’s so obsessed with profit that she often makes unreasonable demands.”

Winia said with a sigh.

“I was hoping that if I came back, something might… Haa. It’s just annoying.”

She must be feeling complicated. No matter what, she had just beaten up her own mother. It would be a lie if she wasn’t feeling conflicted.

I gently stroked the back of Winia’s neck.

“Don’t feel too bad. You did well, Winia, right? That’s all that matters. You did the right thing this time. There’s no need for us to back down when they start acting crazy.”
“I guess…”

Winia, now calmer, leaned into me and closed her eyes.

She really likes having her neck stroked.

“Ugh… Yeah… That’s right. I have you, darkie… Seriously, what’s with her trying to force me into a political marriage…”
“I’m not giving my woman to anyone.”
“Even though there are so many?”
“They’re all mine. And Winia, do you think I’d even bat an eye no matter what Zenia does? You know how strong I am these days, right? I’m fucking OP.”

Absolute confidence.

I know my strength clearly, and I act accordingly. If I think I can handle it, I don’t hesitate. That is the dignity of the Heavenly Demon, Kim Kat.

“I know you’ve gotten really strong, darkie.”
“Yeah, just remember that.”

But I don’t know what the aftermath will be. Zenia said she hadn’t given up, so she’ll probably do something. She should just apologize, but what’s she going to do?

Does she think she can take Winia from me?

Absolutely impossible. It’s only because she’s Winia’s mother that I let it go this far; if it were someone else, I would have cut them into dozens of pieces, set fire to the mansion, and left.

“But, darkie.”
“Hmm?”

As I was stroking Winia’s ear, she looked up at me and said,

“Why did you take Mom’s bra?”

Ah.

“Ah, that.”

Was she paying attention to that? No, of course she was. I was wondering why she hadn’t asked. I had hoped she’d forgotten in the confusion… I tried to say what I had prepared in advance.

“Don’t tell me, don’t tell me you got all excited seeing her big boobs again, darkie?”
“No, that’s…”

Winia’s rebuke was even faster.

“That’s ridiculous, seriously. I mean, she’s still my mom, right? Not just some random woman I’m flirting with, but my actual mom? Even if Mom’s boobs are bigger than mine, that’s still not okay, right, darkie?”

What on earth is she talking about?

“Hey, hey. Winia. If I was excited, would I have been spinning your mom around?”

I can’t deny that her breasts were attractive. But those breasts were not filled with maternal love, but were merely a frigid BB (Blizzard Breast). I just thought the bra was innocent.

That’s why I performed the Big Tit Spin.

“I guess, but be honest. You really liked Mom’s boobs, didn’t you?”
“There’s no way I’d like such terrifying, extreme, cold breasts.”

I was attracted to them when I first saw them.
But that disappeared after witnessing their coldness, so it’s fine.

“You’re talking nonsense again. Be honest, darkie. Did you like them or not?”
“I’m telling you, no. Honestly, I’d be a little worried if they got bigger than yours.”

To be honest, that much would be okay.

“Then why did you take the bra?”
“Just… it smelled like you, so I unconsciously…”
“Take it out.”
“Yes.”

I immediately took the bra out of my back pocket and handed it to Winia. She immediately confiscated it and unfolded it.

“Fucking huge, seriously.”
“She’s your mom.”

Ah, damn. It’s a little disappointing to have it taken away. I wanted to decorate it on the wall of my equipment room, like a stuffed deer head. A kind of trophy, you know?

“Will mine get this big too?”
“Hmm…”

Seeing that the size hasn’t changed even though I touch them every day, has she just reached her limit? Hilde’s got bigger, though.

“I don’t know.”
“But why are you putting it on your head?”
“I can only explain it as an irresistible impulse.”

You’re not human if you don’t do this in that situation.

“That’s ridiculous, seriously.”

ㅡChuckles.

Winia smiled faintly and laughed out loud. She’s not blaming me right now, just teasing.

“Anyway. Why is your mom so intent on marrying you off? Is it for the family’s benefit? It would be faster to just give up, you know.”
“I don’t know. I just came back home after leaving… It must be because of her children…”
“Children?”
“Serena… my sister. She can’t have sons, so she might be doing this to me.”
“She needs a grandson?”
“Maybe.”

It’s not incomprehensible. She has four daughters, so she might want at least a grandson, even if she can’t have a son. It might not just be a desire, but a need for a male heir to inherit the family.

I don’t know the situation, so I can’t know what she wants.

ㅡKnock knock.

Someone knocked on the door. It sounded calm, without any hostility, so it must be a maid. Could it be Erica?

“Come in.”

As I said that, the door opened and Erica came in.

“…Milady.”
“Erica?”

Erica came in, greeted us, and approached Winia.

“What on earth happened… This is the first time I’ve seen you so flustered since you left, Milady. The Countess looks terrible.”

She doesn’t show it, but she’s quite surprised. She probably didn’t expect things to turn out like this when she brought us here.

Winia answered calmly.

“It’s nothing much. She was giving me a hard time, so my husband gave her a hard time back.”
“…I see.”

Erica nodded and looked at me.

“Thank you.”

Gratitude.

“It was nothing. I was just doing what was natural for me. I’m worried that Erica might get caught in the crossfire because of this. I feel really sorry because it seems like that might happen.”

I’d feel really uncomfortable if this person got blamed for this. I didn’t do anything wrong, but if she ends up getting hurt, I can’t help but think that way.

“It probably won’t be a problem.”
“I’m glad to hear that.”

Anyway, Erica and Winia started talking.

“How’s Mom?”
“She’s being attended to and has gone upstairs. It seems she needs to recover.”
“How will she react?”
“I don’t know exactly what happened… but it probably won’t be good. You know the Countess’s personality, don’t you?”
“So, how do you think she’ll react? That’s what I’m most curious about. How has Mom acted when these kinds of unfortunate events have happened recently?”
“…I’m not sure.”
“Hmph.”

I couldn’t get any useful information.

We only know that she’s a countess with a lot of money and owns a lot of businesses. I don’t know if Erica, who’s a veteran maid, is pretending not to know or if she really doesn’t know.

“Erica. I’m curious… Did Serena have a baby?”
“Yes. Two daughters.”
“Daughters? What? What about my older sisters? Don’t tell me they don’t have sons either?”
“Unfortunately, no.”
“…”

She still doesn’t have any grandsons.
Then?

“The Countess probably… wanted Milady to conceive a grandson. I don’t know why she’s so obsessed with sons, but there must be a reason.”

Winia narrowed her eyes.

“The nobles on the list that Milady would have received if she had accepted the political marriage are all only sons of noble families that the Bellatude family could merge with if Milady only gave birth to sons.”
“Hmm…”
“But that would be secondary. The Countess only wants a grandson.”

She’s trying to marry her off to get a grandson?

“If that’s the case, why doesn’t Mom just have one herself… No, does she not need a son? Is there a separate reason why it has to be a grandson?”
“I don’t know.”

Is she trying to make a move on Winia in advance because her other daughters can’t have sons? But is there a reason to go this far?

“Winia. Is there a secret to your family’s bloodline or something?”
“…I don’t know. Even if there is, I wouldn’t know because I left home.”
“Then if there is something like that, would your sisters know?”
“Maybe.”

Only suspicions remain.
What a complicated problem.

In the end, there are some opponents that can’t be solved with destruction and chaos alone. It’s a shame, but I can’t just beat Zenia with all my heart and power. I know my limits.

“The carriage is already prepared. You can take it back.”
“Erica…”
“I’m glad you seem to be doing well.”
“…”

Winia paused for a moment and replied.

“Thank you. I was glad to see you too, Erica.”
“Likewise, Milady.”

Let’s go back now.

After saying goodbye to Erica, we left the Bellatude mansion. There was no one trying to catch us or stop us. We naturally boarded the carriage parked outside the mansion and returned home.

“Hehehe, Kat. What on earth did you do?”

When I came back and told her the story, Cloudie laughed and patted my shoulder. Karin burst out laughing, and Liz unnie covered her mouth with her hand and laughed.

“Chuckles, darkie is really crazy.”

When I came back, Winia was telling the story as if she was quite enjoying it. It was just a ridiculous, unfilial story, but everyone mostly agreed that it was okay and that she deserved to be beaten.

“However, won’t there be repercussions? If she doesn’t give up on Winia, it seems like she’ll do something.”
“It’s a little annoying, but it’s not a problem. What’s she going to do if she acts crazy?”

The only thing I’m worried about is that it’ll be annoying. It’s not like I’m afraid of anything. What can she do even if she gets angry?

As I said, it’s something I can handle somehow.

“That’s right. Who would dare to mess with Winia-nim? She has so many allies.”

Hilde is right.

“Well, I can’t directly do anything because it’s Winia’s family problem, but if she tries to do something, I can solve it.”
“Karin unnie…”

Karin nodded and said that. Winia’s allies weren’t just me.

“Thank you for saying that.”
“It’s nothing.”

Winia smiled when she thanked her.

“But why is she so obsessed with political marriages?”

Cloudie was also wondering about this part.

“I don’t know either. I thought she would have given up by now… What is it, really?”

It’s actually a bit strange. There’s usually almost no reason to be this obsessed. Is there some hidden story? Or is it just simple greed? Zenia was that kind of woman.

“Liz unnie. Do you have any ideas? You seem to know the most about rich noble families here.”
“I don’t really have any ideas either… Inheritance issues? It could be something like that.”

That’s usually the right way to think about it.

“Hmm.”

Then Ari grabbed Zenia’s bra and said,

“By the way, her breasts must be really big.”

Everyone nodded at those words.
