Chapter 28 – #027 Atonement

“Then I’ll just leave.”

After going outside the main gate of Lena Tree, Oh Spell bows and asks.

“Um… Are you sure we don’t have to take you out of Stronghold?”

“Why? Are you afraid I might get caught on the street?”

“That can’t be right.”

“Don’t worry. I’ve wandered around this place well so far.”

Ospel bowed his head at those words.

Although it was only a small gesture, his loyalty to me was visible in his face and actions.

“Then I’ll see you later. I’ll come visit you once in a while.”

“Yes. Please take a look.”

As I walked, I slowly turned my gaze to look at the 6th floor of the mansion.

There, at the window, there was a woman quietly looking down at me.

Linnell Lenatri.

The real power of the Lenatri family.

‘I told her to pretend to be nice to her husband… Oh Spell guy, he’s going to be excited about a while.’

Turn around again.

Entering the alley of the building, he uses invisibility magic to hide himself.

Then, I moved around and got out of Stronghold… Suddenly, a familiar voice was heard from the corner of the alley.

“Hmm~”

– Hey, your second wife has appeared!

‘Oh, what a second wife!’

I internally shouted at Perez and raised my head thoughtfully.

A woman appears from the right side of the alley.

Her red hair is attractive, and the eye patch over one of her eyes is… Bella Hardens.
She smiled at my gaze and hummed her song.

“How do you know I’m here?”

“It was too late, so I did some research~”

Then he walked towards me with long strides and sniffed me.

But is there something I don’t like?

I look with a straight face.

“Why?”

“Are you… You’ve been hanging out with women all this time?”

“No, that’s…”

“That’s right. There are only two women in that house, so there’s no way he would have touched a 12-year-old girl. Is that that bitch? Linnell?”

Ugh. What kind of eyes…

It’s not only creepy, but it’s also bloody.

For some reason, I felt like if I left things like this, they would attack Lenatri and start a fight, so I wrapped my arms around one of her arms.

Her storm-like fierceness soon calms down, and a soft marshmallow-like atmosphere that gently melts in her mouth spreads from her.
As expected, Bella is a simple person… Has she calmed down a bit now?

“What about breakfast?”

“Not yet. Cale, do you want to eat breakfast together?”

“Let’s see the time…”

“Ah~ Master, Bella I feel like I’m starving to death right now~”

And then he grabs my arm, and hey… He’s a knight, after all.

My body just drags.

“Okay, okay. Let’s do that.”

“Aye! Thank you, owner~ side♥”

Bella kissed me once… But why did she have to leave? After making an expression like that, she rushed back.
Then, I carefully walked into the alley while holding Bella, who was clinging to me and sucking on her lips.

No matter how early it was in the morning, there were quite a few people walking around.

Bella takes her mouth off and licks my lips and nose with her tongue.

“Kale, instead of eating, how about a round before we go in?”

It looks like he really wants to do it.

With that one word, the quiet Beres reappear!

– The angle of the anus is visible!

‘You just shut up.’

That damn anus is real.

I ignored the whining Veres and said while massaging Bella’s firm thighs and buttocks.

“Let’s do it tonight.”

“Wow♥ I like it!”

So early in the morning, we wandered around the streets to eat.

It was still just after 7 a.M., And class was at 10 a.M., So there was quite a bit of time.

“What do you want to eat, kale?”

“I just need a light stew and bread.”

“Really? Then let’s go to a place I know!”

Bella crossed her arms around me and smiled.
That smile seemed like a girl’s, and it seemed like my image of her had been updated.

‘Why has this come to this, let’s find out about Bella.’

After her first encounter with her, she continued to wonder how on earth the Philosopher’s Stone and her body were able to fuse together.
Still, I was able to put it off for some reason because I was busy, but now that I had about 3 hours to spare, I couldn’t stop thinking about it again.

– You’re really sick, you idiot.

‘But aren’t you curious too, Perez?’

– Oh, I don’t know. I hate headaches~

We arrived at the restaurant.

As I sat quietly in her chair and looked at her, Bella leaned forward and brought her face closer.
And then he smiled.

“Do you have any questions about our dog?”

“If there is, will you tell me?”

Bella smiles meaningfully.

“Because I saw you doing it?”

Then he got up, came over to me and sat on my thigh.

He lays his body on me and winks with his eyes.

“W-what are you doing?”

“What do you think? We’re the only ones in the store~”

I feel a strange texture.

For some reason, he sits on top of me, moves his waist slightly, and rubs my stuff with his crotch.

In that state, he reached out and wrapped his hand around my head. We kissed briefly and then fell apart.

“Ask. If there’s anything I can teach you, I’ll teach you.”

Then, without hesitation.

“You put a stone in your eye, how is that possible?”

“Aha? Is that what you’ve been wondering about? Kick.”

Bella made a mischievous face.

The look a child makes when playing.

In a way, it may be because her personality is like that of a child, but just when I thought it was quite fitting, she spoke again.

“You didn’t touch me because you were curious about that, right?”

“That can’t be…”

“Then?”

“Of course I’m interested in you.”

The woman laughed.

It was truly a beautiful smile.

She hummed, pondered, and then asked me.

“So if you had to choose between making love to me or knowing the secret of the Philosopher’s Stone? Which would you choose?”

“Of course…”

But at that moment, the woman used her magic.
Looking at the formula, it is ‘authenticity’.

So-called determining whether the other person’s words are true or false.

“Even if you do this, it’s not enough to prove the truth…”

“Don’t worry. Did you forget I have this in one of my eyes? It’s at least a B grade.”

Those words made me completely dumb.

The magic of authenticity requires a grade of at least B to be valuable.

Anything less than that is less credible.

The problem is that it is very difficult to increase the understanding of this magic, but to a certain extent, it is… In this vast empire, there were officially only two wizards who could use it at grade B or higher.

Such a difficult and esoteric magic.

However, Bella made up for that lack of understanding with her magical power.

It is the Philosopher’s Stone with infinite magical power.

I hesitated.

Should I tell the truth or not?

“I…”

But at that moment, Perez intervened.

– That’s carrot love. Isn’t it?

‘No, I’m more curious about the Philosopher’s Stone.’

– Is curiosity important, is the cause important?

‘Ah…’

When I understood what it meant, I immediately put an end to my worries.

If you were Aslan in the past, your dream now was to sow my seeds and create an equal world.

He says it with a smile.

In a tone that doesn’t waver at all.

“Of course it’s love with you Bella.”

The princess, who was happy to hear those words, squealed.

And the owner, who peeked his head out at the mess, smiled happily and went back.

‘Unlike the rough sex, you have a girlish side.’

Bella screamed for a moment, her face turning red and her body twisting.
In a good mood, she tried to satisfy my curiosity by telling me about the Philosopher’s Stone.

“You know what the problem is if you fuse the Philosopher’s Stone with the human body, right?”

“Is your body constantly breaking?”

“Correct answer!”

It was like that.

If the Philosopher’s Stone, which is said to be a replica of the Dragon Heart, is fused to the human body, the body will literally be destroyed.

The human body cannot handle that powerful magical power.

“That’s why I engraved it.”

“What…?”

Bella laughed.

However, it was not the girlish smile she showed earlier.

A laugh that is both creepy and sad, yet with a hint of madness.

“I engraved the magic formula on the Philosopher’s Stone and the raw flesh inside the empty eye.”

– Crazy…

Bella didn’t say anything after that, but I knew what it meant.

It was engraved with regenerative magic to maintain the broken body.

Then, even if the body is broken by magic power, it can be immediately restored with magic power.

“Fuck…”

A swear word came out without me knowing.

Bella widened her eyes, as if that was unexpected.

Move her hands

And then I stroke the head of the woman in front of me.

How much does it hurt…

There have been cases of successful human body fusion using the Philosopher’s Stone.

There are quite a few cases of success through recovery or regeneration techniques, like the woman in front of you.

The problem is that the person who underwent the procedure goes crazy or dies within less than a month.

How could it not be so?

The pain of my whole body being broken continues indefinitely.

“… Are you okay?”

“Hey~ Are you worried about me right now? That’s why you’re making that face?”

A woman’s hand touches my cheek.

She is always smiling.

And it is always full of vitality.

If I think about it, I’ve never seen her look relaxed before.
Maybe it’s not because of her personality, but because she couldn’t be comfortable.

“Are you sleeping well?”

“Well… Sometimes you sleep like you’re fainting, right?♥”

“How long has it been since the procedure?”

“Well… Has it been about 7 years?”

For such a long period of time…?

How?

In response to my question, Perez expressed her thoughts in her serious voice.

– Then that’s all there is to it.

‘What is it?’

– You showed extreme M tendencies from the first time you saw him. In other words, he suffered from constant pain and then became civilized. To feel joy in pain.

‘I see…’

It makes sense.

Before, when I pulled on Bella’s nipples, even though it felt like my nipples were going to tear, I would scream for more because I liked it.

“Bella.”

“Huh? Why?”

“Come closer. Let me hug you.”

Bella was excited and hugged me.

I hugged her tightly and patted her back.
The owner saw this and waited for a while at a distance instead of bringing the food.

– Aslan. Are you feeling guilty now?

‘Okay. This is atonement. As a fellow wizard, atonement for irresponsibly performing cruel magical procedures on a young child.’

A wizard must never conduct human experiments on live humans.

That’s what I learned from my teacher, and I think the same way.

“Bella, you will take care of me until I die.”

“Yes. I will believe it, master♥”
