Chapter 205 – #204 a Woman Whose Defenselessness Has Become a Habit

The fight is over.

When I turned to Empress Scarlet, she, who had been staring blankly at me, smiled brightly and raised her hand.

“The match is decided. The winner is the Earl of Cranberry.”

“Aaaaah. As expected, Master!”

“I thought Master would win!”

Unlike the children running around, the knights were very quiet. That’s probably because my movements, which they thought were wizards, were fast and clean enough for them to chase.

– Howdy. It’s the Aslan recipe!

[How are you feeling?]

The voices of Perez and Naiad ring in my head.

I moved my arms and legs lightly and smiled.

‘It’s worth holding on to. You’ve practiced a lot, haven’t you?’

[But you still shouldn’t overdo it. Because it puts a lot of strain on the body.]

‘Yes, I will keep that in mind.’

Just as I was finishing my conversation with Naiad, the Fourth Empress approached me.

Her eyes were very bright. It was a reaction she had never seen before. I intuitively realized that my strategy was working.

“Count. If you don’t mind, I have something I want to ask you.”

“Please ask.”

“How did the movement a moment ago come about?”

I could guess what she was going to ask, so I told her briefly.

“It’s magic. I strengthened my body with magic. I once aspired to be a knight. The body I had trained since childhood received strengthening magic, allowing me to move like I do now.”

“This is how a magic swordsman fights.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Haha. It’s fun. It’s really fun.”

Empress Scarlet’s eyes sparkled with fondness as she looked at me.

Curiosity, joy, and even greed were visible within it.

“Count. Instead, how about a fight with me? I really want to share a sword with you.”

“It’s an honor for me…”

I turned my head and looked at Jerome. He was lying on the floor, trembling and shaking.

“There’s no need to save face. It was a life-or-death struggle, and didn’t you swing with the intention of killing? It was already too late.”

When Empress Scarlet nodded, several knights stood up and approached a knight named Jerome.

By the time they lifted him up, his breathing had already stopped.

The second blow split his jaw, and the shock was transmitted to his brain, killing him instantly.

“That’s stupid. If I hadn’t been careless, I wouldn’t have died without being able to swing my sword once. The position of imperial knight hastened that fate.”

“…”

4 The knights could not say anything to the Empress’s words. That’s because the statement wasn’t just aimed at the dead.

The two knights disappeared carrying Jerome. The 4th Empress smiled brightly at me again.

“So, how about it? How about sharing a sword with me?”

“Well… Scarlett is so strong, I’m worried that I might ruin the entertainment.”

“That can’t be so. Everyone here now knows from the duel a while ago. You are the strongest among them. And I like fighting against the strong.”

“Yes. If you say so.”

I picked up the practice sword that had been left on the floor again.

That’s how sparring began.

Bang. Bang bang bang.

Swords clashed with swords, and sparks flew out. Dust rises in all directions.

The fight lasted about 10 minutes.

The battle quickly passed hundreds of times.

“Crazy. Does that make sense?”

“Is that… A magic swordsman?”

An uneven situation continued. Of course, it only seemed that way on the outside.

[That’s it. No more. It’s dangerous.]

As his muscles began to tremble, and his vision began to blur, the Naiad gave him a warning. I stopped swinging the sword and raised both arms.

The tip of the Fourth Empress’s sword stopped tall in front of my neck.

“Raise your sword again. You can still fight more, right?”

“That’s true, but I kept moving too hard without even warming up, and my muscles were screaming.”

“Oh, that’s right.”

Empress Scarlet, whose mouth had been hanging on the tip of her ear the whole time, gave an expression of regret. The tip of her sword glided towards the floor.

Result… Of course, it was defeat.

It was also a one-sided, overwhelming defeat.

In the first place, the Sword Master is a monster that has begun to escape the limitations of being a tool. It was only natural that I would lose after attacking her with my sword.

“S-Master! My arm!”

“Mom, that’s too much!”

The two princesses rushed over and focused on my left arm.

A blow allowed only once. The 4th Empress was watching, but I was unable to block one of her swords and had to sacrifice her left arm.

The result is now this. My left arm was broken and shaking.

I used healing magic on my broken arm. Only then did the 4th Empress calm down her excited emotions and scratch her head.

“Haha. I’m sorry. Did I get too excited?”

“It’s okay. I’m glad you enjoyed sparring with me. Huh. By the way, it was my defeat after all. I wonder if you’d say it’s the best sword of the empire… All I had to do was dodge and block.”

“Hehe. You’re perfect at talking. Unlike people who only flatter, I can feel the sincerity in your words, which makes me feel good.”

4 The Empress raised her hand and ordered her to be delivered.
The knights returned to their seats for their own training, and the two princesses were also sent back to wash up and eat.

Once I was alone with Empress Scarlet, I followed her to her study.

Twitch, twitch. Twitch, twitch.

Every time Empress 4 walks, her plump buttocks sway from side to side. The clear shape of her panties is visible over her clothes that cling to her buttocks.
Below that, just as Perez said, the butt ate his pants, and if you lowered your gaze slightly, you could even see the shape of an axe.

‘… Seriously, it sucks.’

– Ugh. What’s the plan? Can’t we just do it today? I can’t stand it, Aslan!

To be honest, it’s hard for me to bear it, but she is clearly an intermediate sword master.

Even though she was famous for her stubbornness, her reckless approach to persuade her in a friendly way and devour her power was not a good idea.

‘For now, let’s just endure looking at butts.’

– Tsk. It can’t be helped.

Twitch, twitch. Twitch, twitch.

Just by looking at it, she feels her engorged cock tighten, and her eyes are fixed on Empress Scarlett’s ass.
But soon her movements stopped.

She thought she watched for just a moment, but before she knew it, she had arrived in the study.

“Count. You were an aspiring knight?”

“Yes, I am.”

Originally, the owner of this body, Kale Cranberry, aspired to become a knight.

However, due to my poor estate, I applied to become an assistant at the academy to earn money, and when I was falsely accused and committed suicide and came into this body, that soul no longer existed here.

“It’s a shame.”

“Yes?”

“His movements are unusual. His sword proficiency is low, but he has talent and skill. Even if he hadn’t learned magic, he would have become a great knight.”

Empress Scarlet licked her lips as she set down her sword on one side of her room. Judging by the reaction, it seemed obvious that he would use the excuse of treating him to a meal tomorrow to spar with him as well.

“If that were the case, you would have become an imperial knight and shared a sword with me every day. It’s such a shame. I’m so sorry. So, what do you think? Are we going to do it tomorrow too?”

… As expected.

“I am honored that you overestimate me so much. Although my skills are lacking, I will do so if Scarlett wants. I also enjoyed the sparring a little while ago.”

“I see! That’s a good thing!”

Empress Scarlet put her arm around my shoulder and smiled, as if she was really happy that she got the chance to spar with me.
I felt her voluptuous breasts squishing against my arms.

“Count. I really like you. My children will fall in love with you. You are honest and humble. Despite your power, you know how to be considerate of others. You… Are charming.”

“Haha. Is that so?”

“Yes. Of course, I know you are hiding something from me.”

4 The Empress’s serious eyes looked straight into mine, just within touching distance of her nose.
Although it was only for a moment, it was a gaze that felt cold. Those eyes that seem to see through my inner thoughts.

“I don’t like men who hide a lot. But… I like you for some reason.”

The 4th Empress’s expression relaxed again. She winked at me.

“So what about it? Are you following me?”

“Yes?”

“No, that won’t work. Angelica and Vivien are fighting over you, and if you get in the middle of it, you’ll only get angry. Let me correct you. How about taking my daughter as a concubine? If you want, I can give you both.”

– Oot?

I couldn’t hide my embarrassed expression as I had never thought that she would push her daughter. Empress Scarlet, who saw that, grabbed my cheek and giggled.

“You. You’re even more fun to tease, so you’re even more perfect as my son-in-law.”

“… Thank you just for the words. I will think about that.”

“Don’t worry too much and choose right away. After all, isn’t she a concubine? Our daughter is also a daughter, but it won’t be easy to find a mother-in-law like me anywhere.”

“Are you serious about sending her daughter to be her concubine?”

It’s not even an official wife.

In some ways, she is just a woman he lives with.

“The best way for royal women to live happily is to meet a good man and live in the same house. It doesn’t really matter whether it’s the position of a concubine or a royal wife. As long as the man is good.”

Empress Scarlet, letting me go, strides towards the door on her right and lifts her top. As her breasts popped out, she lowered them back to her face and said, “I want to miss her.”

“You can leave now. Take a shower and see me at dinner.”

“Yes, then.”

I bowed and left the room.

The image of Empress 4 showing her defenselessness a little while ago kept flashing in her mind.

– Ugh. Did you just see the back muscles? I’m really looking forward to the anal squeeze!

… Hold on. Let’s be patient.

It won’t take long to attack her.

***

After that, the confrontation with the Fourth Empress took place almost every day.

The time between her and her sword is about 10 minutes. Maybe that’s why she never got tired of competing with me and wanted to do it every day.

At the same time, there was something to be said when it was over.

“So have you thought about it? My daughters.”

She was anxious because she couldn’t get her daughter to marry me.
Along with her desire to make me her son-in-law, it was her desire to legally increase the time we met and share the sword.
As the two weeks passed, her short-tempered and stubborn nature finally revealed her limitations.

“Count. It wouldn’t be polite to delay answering a proposal from a member of the royal family.”

Although it was said with a smile, it clearly had a serious meaning to it. It was a word that contained her own desires without hesitation.
Feeling that the time was ripe, I spoke as politely as possible.

“Then there is a condition.”

“Are you putting conditions on the royal family’s offer now?”

“I think Scarlett will like it when she hears the story.”

“Hoo?”

A smile spread across the 4th Empress’s lips, as if she was looking forward to what kind of story would come out. She put her butt on the tea table and looked at me, telling me where to go.
Today as well, I opened my mouth as I felt the strength going into my lower abdomen as the 4th Empress sat with her legs spread wide open like a man, clearly showing the ax marks on her crotch.

“In the next two weeks, we will take on the Empress one on one and achieve victory.”

“Interesting. In just two weeks?”

A tremendous amount of energy came out after the laughter. Tingling. The skin on my entire body tingled as if I had been hit by an electric shock.

Truly a skilled sword master. Thanks to this, the feelings I felt on the battlefield came back to me.

“Count. I like you, but I hate arrogance. You cross the line.”

“Don’t misunderstand it too much. I’m just trying to make a bet.”

“Bet?”

“Yes. We spar every day. And if I don’t beat Scarlet within two weeks, it’s my loss, and if I win, it’s my victory. The loser decides to grant the winner any wish. How about that?”

“Haha. Yes, it’s a bet… Indeed. It’s a different story if it’s a bet.”

Betting is based on fun and enjoyment.

Talking about winning in two weeks was like declaring war or bragging, but if a bet was the premise, it was like a proposal to use this as an opportunity to have a special relationship with each other, no matter which side wins.

A satisfied smile appeared on the 4th Empress’s lips.

“Fine. Accept that offer. Exactly two weeks, Count.”

With this, the plan has reached the completion stage.

I also quietly walked out of the room with a satisfied smile like the Fourth Empress.

‘The Fourth Empress probably misunderstands my betting proposal by now.’

So far, looking at the whole thing, our fight has been my total loss. The 4th Empress never lost a fight.

So she must have thought that I did this to legally welcome her two daughters.

If he loses the bet and ends up taking his two daughters as wives, the 1st and 2nd empresses have no choice but to accept it.

But I had no intention of losing to the Fourth Empress.

‘How was it? Have you figured it all out?’

– OK! The understanding has been completed completely. I was confused again today, but I even figured out what that difficult blow was.

The difficult blow that Perez was talking about was the attack that broke my left arm on the first day of sparring.

It was indeed the Duke of Demon World. I can’t believe I completely understood the Fourth Empress’s sword in just two weeks.

– Even though I am like this, I achieved intermediate sword master qualifications 2,000 years ago. If I hadn’t been chasing after my sisters, I would have already reached the top level with the sword, right?

If I hadn’t actually seen Beres’ skills, I wouldn’t have believed it at all. Despite her subpar behavior, she was a real badass.

– So don’t worry. The bet will definitely win. Of course, it will be very difficult to achieve victory!

After leaving the imperial castle, I immediately practiced my sword with the help of Beres and Serendiya.

It is impossible to improve your swordsmanship skills in a short period of time. However, it was possible to quickly circulate blood through the Naiad and press down with overwhelming speed.

‘Anyway, my swordsmanship is strictly for defeating the 4th Empress. Let us believe in Perez and Serendiya.’

I sparred with the Four Empresses every afternoon, and trained by increasing my speed to the limit at night. A body that has reached half-body size can completely recover within an hour, even if the body has been used to its limit.

In this way, my training was intense but progressed without stopping. And little by little, I began to understand the Sword of the Fourth Empress.

I was able to understand her habits that even she was not aware of, and reading her flow was no longer a task.

And the day of decisive battle finally arrived.

“Count. Are you ready?”

“Yes. Let’s begin.”

“You know, today is the last day.”

“I remember, but today won’t be easy.”

Gymnasium. The 4th Empress placed her sword on her shoulder as numerous knights, maids, and the two princesses watched.
Looking at the appetizing body of Empress Scarlet, which no one could defeat even though she appeared defenseless, but who would become mine today, I also raised my sword.

“3, 2, 1…”

Numbers counting down.

Blood slowly heating up.

“Start!”

The referee in charge announced the start. The 4th Empress and my new brother have moved.

Our two swords clashed with the sound of a wave, and soon sparks flew in all directions.

Kwaang.
