Chapter 203 – #202 Buy the Heart of the 4th Empress

A deep smile appeared on the lips of the 4th Empress, who was quietly looking me up and down.

Her kindness bloomed in her eyes.

“First of all, the appearance passes.”

“Yes?”

“I thought he would be dishonest because he was a wizard, but did he do any physical training separately?”

Surely… I’m a little more rugged than regular wizards. First, the owner of this body was also an aspiring knight.

Of course, that wasn’t the whole reason. I nodded my head in approval.

“No matter how much a wizard you are, it is difficult to survive if you neglect physical training.”

On the battlefield, wizards are the number one target for elimination.

Therefore, whether to hide their identity or avoid knights, wizards had to train their bodies as much as ordinary soldiers.

With that kind of experience and thinking, I was still doing physical training for an hour a day.

Of course, the muscles and lung capacity gained through having sex with my women are much greater than through physical training.

“Haha. Even a wizard would have a hard time surviving if he neglected physical training… He looks like someone who spent years in the battlefield.”

Stiff.

“I have never seen a wizard like you in my entire life. I really like it.”

“Thank you.”

“Oh, don’t stand like that, come over here and sit down.”

As she sat down next to the head table, the Empress poured her tea.

A pleasant scent could be felt through her nose. However, even though my eyes were looking at the teacup, all my attention was focused on the 4th Empress.

4th Empress Scarlet Kshanberg.

A genius among geniuses who reached the edge of the sword at a young age.

Among the empresses, she is the only one with a knight background, and if there is a sword master in the academy now and there is Tanya in the generation before that… She was a representative of the sword a generation before him.

‘But when it comes to her talent, Tanya and the Sword Demon fall short of her.’

Scarlett, she is at the same level as Serendiya, an intermediate sword master under my command.

At the age of 30, he has the same skills as an elf warrior who is 900 years old.

What was not enough to be called a genius was the woman next to me.

“You don’t have to be that nervous. I didn’t call you here to eat you.”

– No. Please eat me, sister!

“…”

Fortunately, the tension disappeared as if with a word from Beres. She was truly a business partner with a knack for breaking seriousness.

“That’s surprising, by the way.”

“What do you mean?”

“Honestly, when Lord Kael’thas recommended you, I didn’t have very high expectations. Although you are the hero of Florian, most rumors are just rumors. I thought someone inflated them for profit.”

That’s not wrong.

A rumor is a phenomenon that has a very clear purpose. Without it, it can never spread.

The reason my reputation is currently spreading throughout the empire is because the people, who have been devastated by a long war, want a hero who can turn the situation around.

Moreover, high-ranking nobles and the royal family are using me as a golden opportunity to quell the dissatisfaction of the people.

“But after seeing it today, I changed my mind. In fact, the rumor wasn’t true at all.”

“Yes? What is that…”

“I saw you with my daughters earlier. It was the first time in my life that I saw my children so calm.”

“…?”

“I gave birth to my children, but Jan and Wendy are very down-to-earth. They have bright personalities and like to run around like boys, so they can’t sit still.”

It was said that he even played a lot of pranks, completely irritating the souls of those who came to teach him.

“So many teachers are so perplexed every time they come… Just two years ago, there was even a case where children were executed for touching the princess’s body while clinging to the teacher and playing pranks. Of course, that was Angelica’s trick. But anyway, no one wanted to teach our children after that.”

– Wow. Oh my god. Even execution? It was a really dangerous situation earlier, right?

‘That’s right.’

At that time, the Fourth Empress’s eyes sparkled. Her two fists were shaking.

“But Jan and Wendy…! They’re sitting with their hands neatly folded ‘like ladies’!”

“…”

“It was a first. It was the first time in my life that I saw children like that!”

… Indeed. Is that so?

After hearing the story, Empress Scarlet got heated and had to revise her evaluation of me.

She put her hand on my shoulder and had a very serious face.

“Count. I ask you a favor. Will you be a tutor for our children?”

“Well, I don’t plan on going that grandiose… First, I’m also an associate professor at the academy.”

“Oh, that’s right. Then, instead of doing that, why don’t you just kick out the academy and turn to this side? I’m earnest, please. Is there anything you want? Just tell me anything. I’ll do my best to listen to your request.”

Empress Scarlet’s eyes shone brightly.

Her sincerity was clearly conveyed, and I was able to realize that the Sword Master’s talent is separate from parenting.

“Haha. I’ll think about it first. It’s a job I have a lot of affection for…”

So, I ended up teaching the 4th Empress’s two children for two hours every day.

Contact with the 4th Empress went very smoothly.

“Oh. The Count of Cranberry is here!”

The 4th Empress waves her hand widely like a child as soon as she sees me.


Empress Scarlet was very fond of me. She treated me as if I were a wise man who appeared once in a thousand years, and that was because of her two daughters.

“Master! We are ready!”

“Let’s go study!”

The two princesses, who hated sitting cross-legged as much as death, were ready to study and were waiting 20 minutes before my arrival… In a way, it was natural.

“Count. What is the secret?”

A short tea time with the 4th Empress after class.

When she showed her deep curiosity, I answered calmly, saying it was nothing.

“What’s the secret? It’s teaching children in a fun way that suits their level.”

“Oh my.”

During Aslan’s time, she tried every possible method to educate the children of the noble family.
They did a lot of research and even majored in psychology to help them focus.

But the result was that he was falsely accused and killed.

However, unlike in the past, my words started to work the moment I became a noble. The result was as if the actual magic class was being successfully conducted.

“You can capture what children like and then modify the teaching method accordingly. Rather than adapting to the convenience of the teacher, it is tailored to the children who are learning and requires the teacher to put in a little more effort.”

“The teacher puts in more effort and adapts… That’s interesting. Then, those who have been teaching in the traditional way for a thousand years must all seem dull to you, right?”

“Well, I won’t deny it. I also don’t intend to criticize it. It’s not easy to break the mold that has been established before. Scarlett, don’t you know how difficult it is to break away from the form and frame of a sword?”〈 Br〉

“Hmm.”

Break free from the tool called the sword and break the frame it takes. Only then can one reach the level of becoming a sword master.

Perhaps it was appropriate to compare it to a sword.
Empress Scarlet lowered her head with an understanding look on her face.

“Unless you have the same affection for your children as your own, you will never be able to break out of that mold. In order to teach one hour, the teacher has to prepare for five hours.”

Empress Scarlet’s gaze upon me became strange.

He seemed to have realized something after listening to my story a little while ago.

“I… Am truly blessed. I get to have a teacher like you as my children’s teacher.”

It is a success.

In fact, I had cut her mouth hard a little while ago to create this illusion.
So that the 4th Empress would have the illusion that I was putting a lot of effort and affection into it.

– Oh, oh. Aslan is great? You can win the empress’ heart with your snout!

Of course, there is no lie in what I said. In order to gain power as the Fourth Empress, I am investing as much affection and time into the two princesses as I would my own children.

But five hours is a lie.

– You didn’t prepare anything, right?

‘I did it briefly in the carriage on the way back and forth. Well, that’s enough.’

Because the fruits of countless preparations and efforts during Aslan’s days remain intact in my mind.

“The Earl of Cranberry.”

“Yes, Scarlett.”

“How about having dinner with us tonight? I want to get closer to you.”

An invitation to a meal with the royal family…

It’s a position you can’t get even if you want to. As the 4th Empress said just now, this is an opportunity to become closer to them and a guarantee that we have already become closer.

I was polite.

“It’s an honor. Thank you for inviting me.”

“I was worried what would happen if I refused, but I’m glad. The meal will be ready in two hours. Until then, I’m going to sweat a little, how about it? Will you join me too?”

– Yes! Let’s snuggle up and sweat together, sister!

I was waiting in the garden with the 4th Empress’s two daughters, but then I was called and moved to my seat.

The place we arrived at was a spacious training ground.

There were numerous people training in the training hall, and they were all knights under the Emperor’s direct command, protecting the Fourth Empress. At the center, Empress Scarlet was sparring with her five knights.

“Mom, too. Take the distinguished guest to a place like this.”

“That’s right. Master, running around eating dust doesn’t suit you.”

“Is that so? Then what should I do to fit in?”

To my question, the two princesses smiled and answered.

“Of course we’ll have refreshments and talk!”

– Two little kids who used to like running around now like chatting more… Aslan, you’re a little scary.

‘It’s not that I’m scared, that’s what education is. How about that? When you see it, is it possible?’

– Hmm. Just a moment.

Beres and I quietly observed the movements of the Fourth Empress.

According to what Aria had researched in advance, the 4th Empress possessed skills comparable to her sword master.
If it’s movement, it’s movement. If you can afford it, you can afford it. In particular, the energy hidden inside her was, if not greater than that of Tanya, and similar to that of Serendiya.

– I think it’s possible?

‘Really?’

– Uh. Of course, it depends on how good you are at Aslan, but from what I’ve seen so far, it’s quite possible.

‘… Is that so?’

The 5-on-1 sparring ended in less than a minute. The Fourth Empress fought such battles over thirty times without stopping.

The sight of the 4th Empress, wiping away the sweat defenselessly while wearing tight-fitting clothes after sparring with the knights, was quite fascinating.

“Master. That’s why I…”

I couldn’t hear the children talking on either side at all.

It’s just her protruding breasts, full buttocks, abs in the middle, and strong thighs that steal my attention.

“Master. Master! Are you listening to me?”

“Thank you all for your hard work. Let’s take a short break and try again.”

Even after Veres and I ended our sparring, I couldn’t take my eyes off her.

– … It sucks.

‘Huh. I know. That’s a nipple, right?’

– I don’t know. That’s not important now. I ate her pantyhose with her asshole.

When I took a quick look, it wasn’t just us, but most of the knights were looking at her body with a blushing face.
It’s certainly not that a skilled Sword Master can’t feel those gazes, but Empress Scarlet didn’t care about them at all.

‘Is not it. Are you actually enjoying being watched?’

– Should I ask?

As I was looking at the 4th Empress’s body with the knights in unison, her eyes turned directly to me.

Hot. I returned my head, which had been thrust forward, to its original position and adjusted my posture, pretending that it was not the case.
