Chapter 354 – 354. Struggle, and Struggle (2)

– One –

Tick, drop, drop.
Patter.

A large old man lies flat on the floor, sweating profusely.

The dripping sweat was messy with dog fat, reminiscent of the greasy juices of meat.

Whoops, whoops, whoops.

He gasps.

It was a position that was somewhat unreasonable for an old man to take, but the act of forcibly folding his belly full of fat seemed to make it even more difficult for him.

Swoop.

He looks out of the corner of his eye at the person standing near the entrance.

He opens his mouth cautiously, rolling his eyes.

“I, how long will I have to wait like this…”

“Let’s wait quietly until he comes.”

“Ugh…”

He lowers his head.

Perhaps the limit is coming soon, he can’t stay still for a moment and twists his body here and there.

“Anyway, the Duchess seems to be busy with construction, so what about seeing the small person again next time?”

“What?”

“Hick…!”

A person standing near the entrance widens his eyes at the tall old man.

The old man trembles with his heavy body.

He bowed his head even deeper.

“Isn’t it the interview that you have sent hundreds of letters to him, begging and begging to the point of being rude? Are you saying you’re going to break your promise?”

“Oh no, it’s been three hours already.”

“Do you dare to scorn him?! Rise, Vladnok Baldiard! I challenge you to a duel!”

“Hee, hee hee!”

The tall old man, Vladnok, shrank even more.

Of course, he belonged to a ridiculous weight class based on his massive physique, but the one who asked him to a duel was the notorious Regal operative.

Even special operations agents were enough to easily turn an ordinary person like him into a corpse, to the point of overflowing, but judging from the state of his armament, it was clear that he was one of the combat agents.

Because of that, Vlad Nok was so frightened that he had no choice but to roll himself up.

Food.

Looking down at his ugliness, the combat agent sneers.

“Ahhhhh? Are you ignoring my words? Or are you confident enough to win the duel while lying down?”

“That, that’s…”

“If it doesn’t happen, I’ll consider you admitting defeat in the matter of life and death, and I’ll execute you right now!”

“Turn it off…!”

Par r r r r r.
Rocking, rocking.

Vlad Nok trembles with his body as he turns blue.

If I pressed him just a little bit more, he would urinate on the spot.

At that time,

Squeak.
Click.
Another angle, another angle, another angle.

“What’s the fuss about?”

Someone opens the door to the living room and enters.

When I heard the distinctive friction of the heels of women’s shoes,

Swoop.
Rocking.

Instinctively, Vladnok’s eyeballs were directed there.

He raises his eyes as he stares at his bare legs, which are exposed in stiletto heels and a short skirt.

It was because the woman who entered the room was too unconventional to think of it as the usual outfit of a duchess reputed to be chaste.

He could not suppress her male instincts,

Deluk.

She starts rolling her eyeballs sideways.

I always look sideways and look away.

Past her ankles, then her shins, then her knees, then her thighs,

“Huh, huh…!”

Standing there, she is horrified to realize that she is a woman wearing a skirt that is so short that the bottom is exposed.

Besides, she wasn’t even wearing underwear, so he couldn’t help but be more agitated.

Tsar Tomb.
Jiggle, jiggle.

A metallic creaking sound echoes through her skirt.

Gulp.

Vladnok swallows dry saliva.

Vlad Knok discovers that she has a lot of ring-shaped piercings in her labia majora, labia minora, and even her clitoris, and even connects them with a thin chain.

Even dewdrops on it come into his eyes.

She must have known that Vladnok was examining her genitals while lying on her stomach, but she didn’t even think about retracting her crotch.

“Pu-huh.”

Instead, she looks down at Vlad Nok and lets out a deep sneer.

“Uh hmm, kuh hmm…”

To hide the obvious, he clears his throat.

Swoop.

Vlad Nok lifts his head.

And he checks her face.

Fortunately, she wasn’t Chiba.

If she had been Chiba, Vlad Nok would have been beheaded for recklessly rolling her eyeballs.

“I-I-I, the small person is Vladnok Valdeir, who serves as the representative of the group called ‘Awake Citizens’, but who is he…?”

He asks as he breathes a sigh of relief.

“Brother.”

When he confirmed that it was a name he had never heard of and that he didn’t even have a last name, he felt a little more at ease.

‘I introduced myself with my last name, but there’s no way I’ll just tell you my first name… There’s no way that a bitch wearing such a vulgar outfit can be a noble, so she’s definitely a sleazy commoner girl without a family to stand for… ?’

Because she realized that she was just a commoner.

“Are you a ruthless man who tries to infringe upon the housewife’s precious routine?”

“Oh no, that’s…”

Still, he didn’t say anything recklessly.

Inside the Whisky family mansion, a commoner woman dressed in such an unconventional outfit is walking around without anyone stopping her.

From that fact, he must have been an idiot or an idiot if he hadn’t captured the fact that she was heavily favored by her duke and duchess.

Because Vlad Nok was such a quick-witted person, he was able to become the head of a huge civic group as a commoner.

“You must know for sure that the hostess must be very busy these days. The hostess sent you letters of refusal several times, and didn’t you kindly tell me why? Isn’t it something we have to endure even if it changes suddenly?”

“…”

Vladnok gnashed his teeth inside.

In the same commoner subject, she is looking down at herself with an overbearing gaze.

With herself on her knees, she couldn’t even see her feet properly, fearing that her gaze might be directed down her skirt.

It was clear to her that her social status was much higher than hers, and she was much older.

And yet she despises herself, bows down to herself, backed by the favors of her proud duke and his wife.

But with her honed skill, she keeps all the negativity inside.

Press down

Jealousy, anger, resentment, irritation, sexual desire, all of them are forcibly locked inside.

“Huh…”

Brora let out a satisfied laugh and let out her snort.

Although she pushed so hard, it was because Vladnok didn’t rebel or go crazy in the end.

“The hostess has just finished a schedule and is preparing for a while before meeting you.”

“Ah, that, that’s right…”

Vlad Nok didn’t want to exalt her words, so he deliberately muted her words.

She noticed it long ago, but doesn’t bother pointing it out.

Because to her, what mattered to her was not that he be polite to herself, but that he never disrespect Chiba no matter what.

“You’ll be back here in a little while, so if you don’t want to see me again, please refrain from rude words to the hostess even then.”

“Ah, I see…”

Another angle, another angle, another angle.
Jiglang, jjalang.

She leaves her room without even hearing Vladnok’s answer.

Swoop.

He turns his head and looks at the combat personnel waiting standing up near the entrance.

“Um, can I ask you something…”

Vlad Nok must have wanted to make the duel he asked for a non-existent one, so he was calm and rational, but he was sacrificing himself as much as possible.

“What?”

“That person, what kind of job is this person called Brora, so he’s telling me not to do business with him again…?”

Food.

A combat agent laughs blatantly.

Vladnok was offended at heart, but this time he suppressed the feeling inside.

“If you see her again, she will forever regret not having died so quickly, rather than losing her life or death with me.”

“Uh, why, like that…?”

“Because she’s the greatest torturer in the Whisky family.”

“Hee, heehee…?!”

Burrrr
Rocking, rocking, rocking.

Vladnok trembles.

Rolling his body into a ball, he slams his head into the floor.

It took two more hours for Chiba to enter the waiting room, but his legs went numb from waiting and his back and knees started to ache, but he couldn’t even change his posture.

– 2 –

“Are you Vladnok Baldiard?”

“That, it is, Duchess.”

Vlad Nok bows his head deeply.

When he found out that Chiba had a crush on torture technicians, he was completely horrified.

I can’t even think of taking a stern action recklessly.

“Keep your head up.”

“Wow, I’m sorry…”

Swoop.
Rocking, rocking.

Vlad Nok raises his head.

There, a woman with her blonde hair neatly curled up sat calmly, as if she were the embodiment of modesty.

As seen in the portrait, Chiba was a woman with an impressively delicate and neat atmosphere.

“Why did you ask for a meeting with me so anxiously?”

Gulp.

Vladnok swallows.

Her voice was clear and high, but it sounded like she was full of sexiness, like a concubine’s.

Just by listening to her voice, which seemed to contrast with her neat appearance and harmonized well, with a subtly sexy voice,

“It is an honor to meet you, Duchess.”

Claws.

Power enters his genitals.

Buried in the flesh of his belly and his thighs, no one could see that his tiny penis was erect.

‘Ha… It’s unpleasant, such a gaze, such a desire…’

She couldn’t help Chiba not notice his desire.

The butler of the Whisky family is very good at controlling emotions, but at the same time knows that the Whisky couple can read their desires.

But even he can’t hide his desires in front of Regal and Chiba.

There is no one in the world who can hide such desires in front of the couple unless they control their emotions and desires close to a transcendent being.

Therefore, Vladnok is no exception.

‘Ha… It’s been a while since an idiot dared to look at me like that. We’re not going to see each other again, so can you bear with it this once? Still, if your offer to me isn’t worth much, I don’t know. Should I gouge out my eyeballs or rip out a few entrails…’

If he had known Chiba was thinking these thoughts, Vladnok might have run away right away.

But she was still smiling.

As far as her smile, which did not contain any meaning, was exactly like Regal’s.

“It’s a pity that unplanned things happened so suddenly and made you wait for quite a while. But I hope you don’t forget that I’m busy as well.”

“Do you mean this? I will briefly tell you the main point, and the small person will quickly leave.”

Nod, nod
Rocking, rocking.

Vladnok gives a servile laugh.

Chiba’s smile deepened.

“Even this insignificant fellow knows very well that the Duchess has been working tirelessly day and night to condemn the evil that covered her falsehood as a saint and enlighten her ignorant subjects.”

“Isn’t it the natural duty of a woman who has a social leader as her father to guide her subjects so that they can have an upright and sound sense of ethics?”

“That’s right. I want the small person to be a small addition to that.”

Squeak.
That’s right.

Vladnok gently held out the chest he had placed next to him.

Immediately after entering the reception room, combat personnel carefully verified that there was no danger in it.

Chiba’s procrastination in interviewing Vladnok, provoking him through combat agents and Brora, was more for the purpose of verifying the danger to strangers.

To verify that he was not an assassin, and to find out if he was carrying anything dangerous, many people surrounded the reception room.

Of course, it was unknown to Vladnok.

“What is it?”

“Saintess, no, I’ve been collecting notes related to Ada’s sex scandal.”

Vlad Nok concealed the fact that it was an account of his own experience and that of those around him.

It was because he judged that there was no need to disclose the fact because all the articles published in the newspaper were submitted anonymously anyway.

“Also,”

Sreureuk, arm.

He takes out from his bosom an old-fashioned letter.

“This is a copy of the joint signature signed by representatives of the media companies that have direct ties to the villain, including the villain.”

“Hmm… What did you decide to do with them and then sign one after another?”

“After seeing the situation in which the devil moved in the system last time, we, good-natured civic group members and representatives, and well-meaning journalists could not hide their deep concern. Shortly thereafter, intellectuals and civic group members felt a sense of social responsibility. The people gathered together and agreed to condemn Ada, the alleged mastermind behind the devil, and expose her true identity to the public, so that the public, ignorant of the lies and deceit perpetrated by the devil worshiper for decades, will no longer be able to do so. We are all determined to remind her not to be deceived, and to warn her, and further, to prevent the appearance of demonic creatures!”

Rocking, rocking.
Patter.

Vladnok vomits, sweating profusely.

The smile drawn on Chiba’s lips grew thicker.

“You were a righteous man.”

“It’s too much praise. As an intellectual, in order to achieve the prosperity of the empire and the peace of the subjects, I’m just adding a small amount of effort.”

Chiba nods her head.

Swoop.

Turning her head, she looks at the combatants standing near the doorway.

She stretched out her slender finger and pointed to the chest Vlad Nok had brought with her.

“Please retrieve this.”

“I understand, Duchess.”

Chuckle.
Suck, Tup.

He takes it to the doorway.

Cheeks, sighs.
Took.

Give it to the agent waiting outside the door.

It will probably be reviewed by special operations agents all night.

After properly culling, it will be systematically disseminated to the public through media outlets sponsored by the Whisky family and through media outlets with ties to Vladnok.

That would be a good shield to cover up the rumors about Regal.

As the thought crossed her mind, she wanted to give Vladnok a prize.

“I have absolutely no doubt that you did such a righteous thing, not wanting anything in return, just to practice a righteous heart. There is no law. I want to repay you as much as possible, but do you have anything you want?”

Flash

Vladnok’s little eyeballs glow.

Finally, the long-awaited question came.

“The small person is just-“

Vladnok speaks of his wish.

His answer was so unexpected that Chiba even opened her eyes wide and blinked a few times.

However, it wasn’t that difficult, so she willingly agreed to grant his wish.

A deal was made that both Vladnok and Chiba were satisfied with.

It was a collusion that happened one autumn night.
