Chapter Index

    “Helena.”

    “Yes, Mother.”

    Amelia stroked Helena, her daughter and wife, as she worried about Lily.

    “I hope Lily isn’t up to something strange again. Honestly, I think the Forest of Death is a bit too much.”

    “No, Mom. You know how many people were drawn to strange rumors before the Forest of Death was created. You almost got kidnapped again back then, and the world was almost destroyed.”

    “True… It’s just that it’s a bit unsettling to call the forest that Lily protects so diligently the Forest of Death. And all the animals living in that forest are so kind, yet they’re all called monsters.”

    Amelia also petted Kuro, who had transformed into a rabbit, next to her while stroking Helena.

    “It can’t be helped. Everyone is blinded by greed. It’s inevitable as they grow older.”

    “Blinded by greed… is that what it’s called?”

    “From others’ perspectives, yes.”

    “It’s quite uncomfortable, isn’t it…”

    “Mom… you’re feeling gloomy again. Should we do that?”

    “Should we?”

    “I was already thirsty, so I’m glad.”

    Helena wriggled out of Amelia’s embrace, lifted the hem of Amelia’s dress, and slipped inside.

    Upon hearing Helena’s words, “Should we do that?” Helena smiled and immediately brought her tongue to Amelia’s moist core.

    Having had a long-standing relationship with Lily and Helena, Amelia’s entire body had become sensitive. She held Helena’s head as she moaned in pleasure.

    “As expected, Mom’s nectar never gets old.”

    With each lick from Helena, Amelia’s nectar flowed, quenching Helena’s thirst. How much nectar must flow to quench thirst? Even without reaching climax, Amelia’s copious nectar made Helena happy as she first teased Amelia’s clitoris, then prodded her entrance, and finally nibbled on Amelia’s cute clit.

    “Ah~♥”

    As Amelia moaned, her nectar sprayed out. Helena used magic to ensure not a single drop was wasted, swallowing it all.

    Helena felt her own core moistening from the scent of Amelia’s nectar that flowed from her nose, her mouth full of Amelia’s nectar.

    “Let’s go to bed, Mom.”

    “… Yes, ♥”

    “During the time Lily is absent, I need to give Mom the attention she deserves efficiently. I’ll make sure to indulge her as much as possible without causing her to faint.”

    Helena supported Amelia, determined to give her as much pleasure as possible.

    Lisa watched Lily walking ahead of her with unease.

    The Black Witch Lily.

    A figure from history books. A member of the party that saved the world, consisting of the hero Emily, the saint Isabelle, the Black Witch Lily, the young sorceress Helena, and the assassin Irina, who no one has ever seen.

    But Lily was portrayed as a very frightening person even in the books.

    The hero party consisted of five members.

    First, the hero Emily.

    The saint Isabelle, who was in love with Emily.

    The Black Witch Lily.

    The young sorceress Helena, who created and mastered countless spells at a young age.

    And even the assassin Irina, who no one had seen.

    The five of them worked together to save the world and went into hiding. This was the history recorded in the books.

    While the history books detailed the hero party members, it was noted that while Emily was diplomatic, Lily was radical.

    Emily moved to save everyone, while Lily believed sacrifices were necessary to save the world.

    Honestly, Lisa’s thoughts cannot determine who is right or wrong.

    However, right now, that intensity felt quite intimidating.

    When I was with Lady Amelia, I didn’t notice it, but now, watching Lady Lily walk alone, chills run down my spine.

    As someone very sensitive to mana, the mana emanating from Lady Lily right now was too terrifying.

    How many people and monsters has she killed? How long has she been living?

    Furthermore, why are monsters gathering in this forest? Thinking about Lady Amelia’s words, it seems like Lady Lily has tamed all the national-level monsters around me.

    “Did you say Lisa?”

    “…! Yes. Yes!”

    To be honest, it’s really annoying. But since Amelia asked for help, I’ll help.”

    “… Thank you.”

    “So don’t say anything about my actions.”

    “… Yes.”

    “Is there someone you want to save?”

    “Huh?”

    “Someone you don’t want to die.”

    As Lady Lily stopped on the road and turned to look at me, I swallowed nervously.

    ‘Beautiful… but also scary…’

    With her black hair down to her waist, mature face and body, she made a simple black dress look beautiful.

    Furthermore, the black eyes and seductive smile that are one of the reasons Lady Lily is called the Black Witch in certain situations made me realize once again that I don’t like men, but women.

    “I hope you can spare the maids and servants who are currently captured…”

    “Really? Then can I just kill the rest?”

    “…”

    “Lisa? Why are you scared?”

    “… Yes.”

    “Don’t worry. Anyway, the family that ignored my words would have all died by the time I came out of the forest.”

    Ah…

    ==

    “What did you say?”

    “I went into the Forest of Death to track her and came back.”

    “Are you crazy? Are you ignoring my words? I didn’t ask you to bring her back alive, but at least bring back the body, didn’t I?”

    He threw the ashtray in front of him at the commander kneeling in front of him.

    “What were you doing until she entered that forest!?”

    “I’m sorry. I’m very skilled in magic, so time was delayed.”

    “Sigh… Put those useless people in and search for the body.”

    “Huh?”

    “Bring back concrete evidence that she’s dead.”

    “… Understood.”

    The commander, bleeding from the ashtray hitting him, bowed his head and left the room.

    As soon as the commander left, Lumine, who pushed Lisa aside and sat in the seat of the Estelle family head, calmed down.

    “Finally… Finally, I am the head of the Estelle family…!”

    The Estelle family has always been the top family in the country of Vitium.

    The legendary warrior Emily, the saint Isabelle, the Black Witch Lily. The family that produced most of the members of the Hero Party, known as the strongest family in history.

    Even the royal family had to consider the Estelle family’s influence.

    There was one rule in the Estelle family.

    They would acknowledge power struggles, but never torture or murder. They would not harm those around them.

    Lumine was annoyed by such trivial rules of the family.

    Moreover, because of such rules, the position of the head of the family was always decided by who had more influence.

    That’s why, despite being stronger than Lisa, Lumine was recommended for the position of family head due to being the top student at the academy.

    Just a weak girl who couldn’t even stand a chance in a one-on-one fight.

    Furthermore, a girl with no power in the family, where academy matters were more important than family matters. It didn’t sit well with her.

    So, breaking the long-standing family rules, she decided to kill Lisa.

    First, she killed Lisa’s mother, who had some influence in the family.

    In front of her, I chopped off my mother’s head, and as her mother’s head shattered into pieces, the eyeballs that barely remained stained her chest, which was quite spectacular.

    How much did I laugh at her reaction of terror when she saw that?

    “Could it be that I have the blood of the famous black witch Lily flowing through me? I never knew murder could be this fun. Ha… Her face is still vivid in my mind. Hehehe.”

    With a cigar in his mouth, Lumen thought of Lisa.

    “Could she have run away to the Forest of Death?”

    The Forest of Death, where no one should ever go near. It is the most notorious forest in the world, where no one who has gone in has ever returned.

    According to the records in the family, there used to be rumors of an elixir of immortality in the forest, but at some point, the forest lost its color and turned into the Forest of Death.

    Moreover, there is a ridiculous rumor that if there is a truly urgent matter, people should go to the Forest of Death.

    “To believe that and actually go to the Forest of Death, what a foolish girl.”

    Honestly, I didn’t like her personality, but I liked her body. So, if I catch her, I was thinking of playing with her without her head, just like her mother.

    Now, her mother is getting tired of it.

    ==

    After escaping from Lily and the Forest of Death, I sat down on the spot.

    No matter how much I pretended to be okay, it was mentally exhausting to be constantly stared at by national-level monsters around me.

    “Are you okay?”

    Lily reached out her hand to me.

    Somehow, it felt like if I took that hand, I would cross a line that should never be crossed, but since I had nothing left now, I took her hand and stood up.

    A warm hand like that of an ordinary person.

    “That Lily…”

    “What?”

    “Why are there monsters in the forest…”

    “Monsters? Those aren’t monsters.”

    “… What?”

    “They’re all kind animals.”

    “Those are animals…? Not monsters…?”

    “If you say that, the kids will get hurt. How fragile do you think the creatures of the World Tree are?”

    “… Uh.”

    To think that those national-level monsters possessed mana and were considered animals…?
