Chapter 51 – The Emperor’s Commission (Mary’s Plan)

Repeating the same day over and over again, Mary and Freya couldn’t handle my sex drive and energy, and the night before the commissioning ceremony, the two of them had a serious discussion.

“Freya, what do you think Winter would think if he had another woman?”

“I honestly don’t care.”

As the month passed, Merry and Freya stopped talking, but Winter’s sexual desire and stamina, which had recently increased, had no memory of holding out until the dawn of the day.

“We can’t stand each other…”

“Haa… Is it because Winter uses her abilities a lot?”

Because of Winter’s excessive use of her powers, Mary and Freya are willing to accept Yuna Choi.
And Mary and Freya also liked Winter’s ability and wanted a relationship based on her heightened sexuality and pleasure.

“Mary, do you remember the day we first became involved together?”

“Yeah, until I passed out at the end.”

Freya told me the conversation she had with Winter, and this conversation was also the conversation she had with Haru Kang on the day she notified her of her breakup.

“I’m sorry… I told Winter to add more women.”

“Ah…That’s what Freya said.”

“That’s what I said when I was crazy… But there’s a woman Winter wants.”

Freya decided to reveal a fact she had been hiding since a month ago. Winter’s next target was Yuna Choi, and it was something Mary should know too.

“Who are you?”

“Aren’t you angry…?”

Even though Winter had said that there was a woman he wanted, and Freya had been hiding it, Mary reacted calmly.

“Yeah, even if the number of women increases, Winter won’t abandon us.”

As Mary was full of her trust and confidence, Freya remembered Winter, who had never been neglectful of herself and Mary.

“Even if Winter’s personality is like that… Will it really be okay?”

“Yeah, it’s okay. Winter will be sad if we push the new lady out.”

Mary didn’t care if Winter stretched her woman, and she only thought about helping the new woman adjust to her grand duchy.

“Are you very worried?”

“Just in case… I only knew about it and hid it.”

“Didn’t you tell me in the end?”

Mary and Freya became closer because of this incident, and they assumed that Yuna Choi would be taken over by Winter.

“I’m not sorry. Freya, tell me the woman Winter wants.”

“I saw Mary too.”

Freya gave Mary information about Yuna Choi, and the two women thought about how to help Winter.
Mary and Freya fell into trouble as they put their heads together, and the lustful troubles continued until dawn.

“Ha… Mary, that’s all there is to it, right?”

“Yeah, that’s all.”

“We… Do it even if we really don’t want to do it. We don’t show dislike.”

“Poohyo! It’s funny because you say it in a spleen way.”

Late in the morning, Mary and Freya made a solemn promise to give their lover Winter anything he wanted.
After the pledge, the two women fell into a light sleep, and when the sun rose, they headed for Winter’s bedroom.

“Winter, wake up…”

After talking with the two dukes until the day before the commissioning ceremony, he returned late at night and fell asleep from exhaustion.
At that time, Mary and Freya, who should have spent time together, occupied both sides of me even though it was early in the morning.

“Ah… What time is it?”

“Eight o’clock when Winter said you should wake up.”

I asked Mary what time to wake up, and there were still 10 hours until 6:00 PM when the ordination was to take place.
However, it wasn’t that much time since he decided to look after Mary and Freya’s dresses and accessories.

“Winter, if you’re tired, sleep more and wake up.”

“Okay, you can sleep more.”

“You have to get up…”

“Haa!!”

“Huang! Winter…!”

Tiredness wasn’t the problem, but I wanted to see Mary and Freya dressed up.
As I touched Mary and Freya’s breasts, my sleep ran away, and the three of us headed to the place where the maid and maid were waiting.

“Grand Duke, it’s unfortunate that you couldn’t see Mary-nim and Freya-nim, but please come.”

“I’ll finish it ASAP.”

“As long as the Grand Duke comes, we can finish it quickly.”

The head maid, who had taken her place from Mary, led me to another location, and I couldn’t see Mary and Freya until she was ready to go out.

“Did you already pick them all out?”

“Yeah, I didn’t want to make you suffer like this.”

As soon as they were ready to go out, they went to see Mary and Freya, but all the dresses and accessories had already been selected.

“Did you pick all Freya?”

“Hey… Yes, look at it as long as it matches the dress.”

After a busy few days, Mary and Freya picked out all the dresses and accessories without me knowing.
Mary laughed lightly, saying she didn’t like my suffering, and Freya also smiled.

“Did you pick the ones that match your hair color?”

Mary and Freya’s hair was purple and pink, which was a rare color even in Arkansas.
This coordination with regressive hair and dress captures the charms of Mary and Freya well.

“Yeah, I decided after talking with Mary.”

“Precisely, Freya suggested it first.”

In addition to the dress, the accessories were well chosen by Mary and Freya. In this situation, all I could do was take out the ring I had secretly prepared.

“It’s a big deal because it looks much prettier than the one I picked.”

“What is that box for?”

“Did you prepare anything else?”

“I’ve prepared a ring… But if you don’t like it, you don’t have to.”

During busy times, he visited the workshop and made diamond rings for Mary and Freya.
I thought I was pretty, but when I saw the trinkets Mary and Freya had picked out, my confidence disappeared.

“Am I not good enough in this way?”

No matter how many times I tried to possess it, my aesthetic sense did not improve. The diamond ring I prepared was also a design that did not stand out easily.

“The ring… When did you prepare it?”

“How did you prepare when you were busy…”

Fortunately for Mary and Freya, design didn’t matter.
The effort they made during their busy time paid off, and only one ring was on Mary and Freya’s fingers.

“Freya, is one ring really enough?”

“Yes, no matter how many times I ask, the ring Winter made is enough for me.”

When asked about the ring in the carriage, Freya answered without hesitation, and Mary explained the reason for the question.

“Freya, Winter is worried that we will be ignored because of the ring.”

“Ah…! I didn’t even think of that…”

Most of those who attended the grand duke’s commissioning ceremony were friendly to the grand duke’s family. As such, there was no fight of spirit unique to the aristocracy, but the emperor’s commissioning ceremony was a place where all nobles gathered.

“Many ignorant and vain people will come.”

And I was filtered out of the people attending the ordination ceremony, but this time the emperor’s ordination ceremony was not like that.
The invitation to the ceremony read, “Everyone is invited to attend.”

“There will be those who flirt, and there will be those who will subtly undercut you.”

Recognized as a hero, Freya was free from the aristocratic culture, but the aristocratic hierarchical culture was slowly rising above the water.

“Freya, how long do you think the authors will be friendly to us?”

The calmer the continent, the more the hero’s presence fades. Even after long discussions among commoners, nobles were wary of diminishing their advantage.

“I still don’t know much about the culture of the nobles…”

“I don’t know either.”

Merry taught Freya about aristocratic culture and things to watch out for, but this was the first time Freya experienced it herself.

“If it’s dangerous, take off the ring.”

“Winter, have you prepared a lot?”

“There will definitely be a moment when I’m away.”

To protect Mary and Freya, the ring was made of an artifact and designed to send a signal to me when the ring is removed from my finger.

“If you think it’s a little dangerous, take it out right away, okay?”

“Yes, I’ll keep that in mind.”

Mary responded by stroking the ring she had crafted with her artifact, and Freya tapped her on the shoulder.

“Mary, remind me again who needs to be careful.”

“Pooww! It’s nice that Freya is cautious, but sometimes it’s a problem.”

A few days ago, Merry and Freya were aware of the nobles they needed to be aware of.
Recognizing the appearance, disposition, and characteristics of a person and paying attention to their actions was an essential virtue in aristocratic society.

“Do you know who it is?”

“Yes, Duke Manox… The one to be most wary of.”

Mary pulled out a neatly arranged wad of paper. Mary and Freya’s heads came closer to the paper covered with photos and unusual information.

‘The Duke of Veronia is attached to me.’

There was a reason Duke Manox came out as the person to be most wary of. Of the two dukes of the Empire, the Veronia family betrayed the Empire and the Manox family and came under my command.

The Duke of Veronia had been deprived of merit and benefits by the Duke of Manox from the distant past, and the imperial family knew but acquiesced.
Even though such a thing had disappeared under the current emperor system, the resentment the Duke of Veronia suffered did not disappear.

‘Look at the settings..`

The conflict between the two ducal families described in detail in the novel went in a good direction for me.
The more you use the information you set up, the better things happen. I have to use all the abilities and information I have, including special abilities and hidden items.

“Winter, are these eight people all attending?”

“Everyone was on the list of attendees.”

As I was thinking about the setting of the two dukes, Mary selected a total of eight people to pay special attention to.
The list of attendees I checked was packed with eight names.

“Haa… I think I’m going to make a mistake.”

“You can make mistakes. Grand Duchess… Freya, you can’t break it.”

“Don’t break it…!”

Mary and Freya’s mistakes are directly linked to the mistakes of the Grand Duke and the Grand Duke’s family as they attend as the archduke’s lover, but Freya was an assassin before that.
I had other things to worry about, and Mary and Freya were not intimidated by the rudeness of the nobles.

“Freya, if you’re not going to break it, ignore the eyes of others.”

“Hey… Are you looking at me with envy?”

“Have some fun with it.”

Haru Kang and Freya’s breakup, me and Freya’s new relationship dominated the newspapers for a week.

“Mary be careful…”

“Yes, you have a ring too.”

Finally, in this commissioning ceremony, Mary took on a difficult task. At the banquet to begin after the ceremony, Mary planned to get information from Haru Kang.

“Don’t worry, if you feel it’s dangerous, remove the ring and run away.”

As I fell in love with Freya, Haru Kang raised his guard and did not tell me any news.
Even Freya was no exception to not hearing any news, and Mary’s role in this banquet was quite important.
