33. Fall.

* * *

 

 

 

 

 

 

While Arlan and Spree were devouring each other, Huanna checked on Cornelia’s condition and came outside.

Her eyes were swollen shut.

 

 

 

 

 

 

,Please summon the main officials and nobles of the palace.”

 

Sadness rose again at the thought of Cornelia’s deteriorating health, but that was that, and work was work.

 

Even though Spree wasn’t there, now that Narcissus was gone, this was the perfect opportunity to stain the palace.

If not now, who knew when the next opportunity would come.

 

 

 

 

 

A little later,

Countless nobles gathered in the main hall.

 

 

They made countless speculations, such as whether Huanna was ending her seclusion and returning, but they couldn’t know for sure without hearing the matter directly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Huanna didn’t face everyone at once, but had them enter the room in groups of a few.

 

The first in line were military officials or nobles with large armies.

About fifteen of them were called in.

 

 

,Hmm… surely… you’re not going to do what Emperor Seorae of the Mei Empire did, are you?”

 

 

The nobles buzzed loudly.

 

They were all educated and knew about the Mei Empire’s affairs.

 

 

In the first year of Seorae, the emperor gathered the nobles in this way, purged all those who displeased him, exterminated nine generations of their families, and confiscated all their property.

The number of nobles and their families who died at that time was as many as 100,000.

 

 

Since there had been no such massacre of nobles in nearly a thousand years, the whole world was shaken at the time.

 

 

 

 

That’s why they were worried that the same thing might happen to them.

 

 

Persia was already a country where the imperial family had strong power.

Once they were targeted, they would die regardless of whether they struggled or not.

 

 

 

 

Fortunately, Huanna’s goal wasn’t slaughter. It was something more helpful to her.

 

It was to turn all the people in the palace, and the nobles, into Vamgnirs.

 

This could be said to be a very bold move, something Arlan couldn’t do because he was conscious of Yuri Yuri, and something even Yuri Yuri couldn’t do because she was mindful of humans and dragons.

 

 

But Huanna was a woman who knew nothing of such things.

She proceeded with the work very boldly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

When the nobles entered the room, knights who had been turned into Vamgnirs beforehand bound their bodies and gagged them so they couldn’t scream.

Then Huanna approached and turned them into Vamgnirs one by one.

 

 

It was a terrifying experience for those who were being subjected to it, but Huanna, who was doing it, was filled with satisfaction.

 

 

 

In just half a day, Huanna was able to control most of the major nobles as Vamgnirs.

 

,….”

 

 

They looked at Huanna, unable to hide their bewilderment, and some even with hostility.

 

There were easily over 200 of them.

Huanna looked down at them with satisfaction.

 

,Now we’re one family. Got it?”

,….”

 

 

No one answered.

 

Vamgnirization that they hadn’t even imagined.

The emperor of a human nation was actually a Vamgnir; it was a situation that would make her a public enemy if it ever spread to the world.

 

 

Especially in the case of Vamgnirs, if all the legends were true, they were the kind of creatures that could never be left alone.

 

 

 

,Everyone looks surprised. I understand. I was like that at first too.”

 

 

She gave a bitter smile.

It was her plan to lure Arlan in and have him rape her, but she never expected to become a Vamgnir.

 

 

Her entire life was changing completely due to something she had never even thought of.

 

She knew that shitty feeling very well.

 

 

That’s why she felt pleasure instead.

Seeing the nobles’ expressions mixed with bewilderment, anger, and hatred, an unknown pleasure rose within her.

 

 

 

,Soon Narcissus and Count Ligeria will return. You must follow them well. In public matters, be loyal to the vassal state owner, Count Ligeria, and in private matters, be loyal to Narcissus.”

 

She wanted to give orders herself and take command, and she wanted to kill Arlan, but unfortunately, she was in a body that couldn’t stand up to Arlan. And she shouldn’t know that her Vamgnir was standing up to Arlan.

 

 

So all she could do was entrust it to Spree, who was almost a fanatic of Huanna.

She would probably do well. She knew what Huanna wanted.

 

 

,And I should have some insurance in case something happens.’

 

 

Arlan’s way of dealing with them was extremely simple. He would order Huanna to stop them.

 

So Huanna decided to prepare for that as well.

 

 

,Listen carefully. This is the top priority order that I, your master, am giving you. From one hour from now for three months, do not listen to my orders at all. Only listen to the orders of Count Ligeria and Narcissus.

And even after three months have passed, if I don’t say, ‘Listen to me from now on,’ then again, for another three months, do not listen to my orders. Let’s just call it a contract for convenience.

 

 

This contract basically lasts for three months, and if I don’t say so for a week before the contract ends, it will be extended again. That’s what keeps repeating. Got it?”

 

Only a few answered weakly, and the rest just glared at her, but she didn’t care.

She never intended to win their hearts anyway.

 

 

,Oh, just because you don’t listen to me doesn’t mean you can harm me. Narcissus and Count Ligeria must both give permission for anything that could harm me. If you all understand, answer.”

,Understood.”

 

 

The nobles answered reluctantly.

Huanna smiled faintly.

 

 

 

She had turned the nobles of the imperial palace into Vamgnirs,

And she had also made Cornelia her minion through the Absolute Ring.

 

 

Wouldn’t it be worth a try at this point?

 

Arlan was an incredibly skilled person, but he alone wouldn’t be able to face 200 Vamgnirs, an army, and Narcissus.

 

 

 

 

* * *

 

 

 

 

 

 

,Haaah!”

 

 

A naked woman gasped and arched her back.

 

 

She, who had her eyes covered with a white cloth, moaned incessantly from the overwhelming pleasure.

 

 

Arlan’s skills had grown that much.

Not overcoming the trauma, but making her unable to even think about it!

 

 

 

Of course, this was only possible because Arlan could freely control various powers such as mana and divine power; other men couldn’t even follow him as much as the dirt on his toes.

 

 

 

,Noona!”

 

 

Arlan grabbed her waist and thrust deeply.

Then, he released the overwhelming sensation of ejaculation all at once! Ejaculation!

 

 

A tremendous amount was poured into Spree’s womb.

 

 

,Aheueueueuk….”

 

 

The feeling of something hot filling her stomach was truly bizarre.

Spree melted like a slime.

 

 

 

,Hoo….”

 

 

It was already the umpteenth ejaculation.

Arlan collapsed on top of her.

 

 

,Haa….”

 

Spree wriggled and rubbed her body, as if the afterglow still lingered.

 

 

,How was it?”

 

The worst thing to say after sex that women would hate so much they’d faint.

But Spree blushed and nodded.

 

 

,It was good.”

 

In fact, it was absurd.

That a woman who had been raped was enjoying sex.

 

But Arlan had the power and skill to somehow make it happen.

And the influence of the divine power that the Main God Terra had given him was very great.

 

 

Anyway, it was a fortunate thing in many ways.

 

Arlan took off the cloth covering Spree’s eyes and exchanged glances with her.

Should we do it again? Or should we go back?

Those kinds of meanings were exchanged, and the two of them got out of bed only after gasping for breath once more.

 

 

 

 

 

 

,Ugh… my stomach is full of something.”

,Haha….”

 

They wiped it off as much as they could, but there was still a lot of it, so it kept overflowing.

It would be convenient to use a Clean Badge, but she adamantly refused.

 

 

She said she would leave it as a monumental event… or something like that….

 

 

,….”

 

 

Arlan watched her stroking her stomach and sat down next to her.

 

,Noona.”

,Hmm?”

 

It was a serious tone.

 

 

,Actually, I have something to tell Noona.”

,What is it? Do you have another woman or something?”

,N-no, it’s not that.”

,Hehe. I don’t care. You’re a king. Originally, kings have multiple husbands or wives.”

,Ahem. Anyway, it’s not that… it’s about my identity….”

,Identity?”

,Yeah….”

 

 

As always, this moment made him nervous.

 

 

If it weren’t for Huanna, he could have revealed it later, but if he went back now, she would definitely try to bite Spree.

In that case, he had to strike first. No, at least he had to let her know.

 

 

 

 

Arlan told her that he was a Vamgnir and that Huanna was his Vamgnir.

 

,Eek?!”

 

 

Of course, she was shocked.

 

 

,You were a Vamgnir… then why were you acting like such a loser back then?”

,L-loser… ahem. I was nothing back then. It just happened to turn out this way.”

,Hmm….”

 

Spree glared at him with eyes that seemed to say, ‘Something’s strange?’

 

,A-anyway, if we go back, Huanna will try to bite Noona. If that happens….”

,I’ll become a Vamgnir too, right?”

,Yeah….”

,….”

 

 

Spree lowered her head.

 

 

She felt like a lot of tremendous events were flashing by.

 

 

,Then rather….”

,If I bite you first, Huanna will notice. That things have gone wrong.”

,So… you’re telling me to just let her bite me?”

,Avoid it if possible. But when you can’t….”

,….”

,Noona, don’t worry. I can take you back. I can’t explain the details, but I’ll never leave you as Huanna’s Vamgnir.”

 

Spree had a look on her face that said she didn’t like something, but she eventually nodded in understanding.

 

 

,Okay. Anyway, that woman is your Vamgnir, right? Then what’s with all this fuss? Why is she so desperate to devour the women around you?”

,Um… is it because her loyalty is too much…? You know how some people kill out of too much love… maybe she’s evolving in that direction.”

,You’re a really bad guy too.”

,Sorry….”

 

Arlan scratched his head awkwardly and made one request to her.

 

 

,Noona, just know this. Originally, Vamgnirs can’t disobey their master. But that doesn’t mean that the Vamgnirs they create are the same. Vamgnirs are only loyal to the one who bit them.

 

 

But there are exceptions. For example, let’s say Noona becomes Huanna’s Vamgnir. If Noona harms me, knowing that harm will come to Huanna, who is Noona’s master, she can’t harm me in order to protect her master.”

,Ugh… it’s complicated.”

,Just know this. If Noona harms me in any way or tries to, Huanna will be harmed. If you just remember this, the rest will go according to my plan.”

,…Okay. Sigh. It feels like a lot of tremendous things are coming and going.”

 

 

Spree grumbled and got up from her seat.

 

,Let’s go, Arlan. Now we have to bring that woman down. After hearing what you said, I feel a little sorry for her, though.”

,Haha….”
