Chapter 128

〈 128 〉True Intentions

Maximilian was in his office, reviewing the status of the refugee relief efforts, when he looked up in surprise at the knight who came rushing in.

“Your Majesty! You, you need to come quickly.”

“What is it?”

Maximilian was puzzled by the Royal Knight’s words. Or rather, the knight who had summoned the king seemed even more embarrassed.

“Someone I’ve never seen before is requesting an audience, but she seems like an extraordinary woman…”

Even the knight who spoke was stammering, using unclear language unbefitting a knight. Having experienced all sorts of things lately, Maximilian was confident that he wouldn’t be surprised by much anymore.

Moreover, he could count on one hand the number of people who could harm him. A woman who suddenly appeared wouldn’t be able to stab him.

“I’ll go see. Where is she?”

“I’ve had her taken to the side chamber.”

“Very well, I’ll go there. Ah, Viscount Obert, you don’t need to follow.”

Geraldine bowed her head at Maximilian’s restraint.

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“Huh?”

As soon as he saw the person, Maximilian rubbed his eyes with both hands, forgetting his dignity. Of course, the woman before him was beautiful enough to captivate anyone, but that wasn’t the only reason.

Her face clearly resembled someone from Maximilian’s long-held memories, with the characteristic blonde hair passed down from his mother’s ducal family. He called out the name in a trembling voice.

“…M, Mother?”

“You fool… It’s me.”

The tone in which she introduced herself as ‘me’ implied that the other person should naturally know who she was. Maximilian could only think of one person.

“Uncle?!”

The person who appeared before Maximilian was the former king, Phillip Artua, who had become a woman.

In a place where no one else was present, uncle and nephew, former king and current king, faced each other. Maximilian still found it hard to believe that the pitiful woman before him was the uncle who had driven him out of the royal family.

“…Were you captured when the capital fell and turned into this?”

“Yes. Heh heh… It was quite a sight. Royal family or not, I woke up one night to find myself like this. I was able to escape when the security suddenly became lax while I was being violated day and night.”

Phillip, whom Maximilian remembered as having a fiery temper, seemed detached from worldly affairs, at least for now. He didn’t want to trouble her, who looked particularly tired, but there was one thing he had to ask.

“You named me as the heir to the throne. Why did you do that?”

“Why, are you dissatisfied?”

“You threw me out of the line of succession, and now this!”

“You! How dare you assume that you deserve to inherit the throne!”

Maximilian was momentarily intimidated by Phillip’s roar, but he soon glared back at her.

“You’re the one who trampled on the laws that have been passed down for generations! How can you say such a thing after plunging the kingdom into chaos for years!”

“Hmm… I see the kingdom is running smoothly, and the ministers must have thought I did well. You have quite the spirit.”

As if shouting at him at the top of her lungs was a lie, Phillip rested her chin on the table again and stared intently at Maximilian.

“…Uncle? What are you doing now?”

Maximilian looked at the woman who used to be his uncle with frustrated eyes, unable to understand her actions.

“I thought it had to be me. I thought that if the throne passed to you, the shining kingdom would fall into ruin. That’s why I drove you out, the son of my brother.”

“That’s—!”

Maximilian felt a fire burning inside him at her endlessly self-centered claim. But Phillip continued, cutting off his words.

“I was wrong. You were neither foolish nor autocratic. On the day the capital fell, when I thought about the heir to the throne, you were the only one I could think of. That’s why I left a letter in the royal castle.”

“…”

Maximilian and Phillip’s relationship was the worst. Usurper and usurped. Beyond that, Phillip always treated Maximilian as if he were nothing and often despised him. Phillip was the enemy who had driven him out of the castle and also the goal he had pursued. Maximilian was speechless when he received the recognition from Phillip that he had secretly longed for all his life.

“Perhaps I was wrong. I exhausted the kingdom’s power with civil wars, and the expansion of the borders failed. I was wrong…”

“Uncle…”

Maximilian was at a loss for words at Phillip’s confession, which was like a confession from someone who had lived without ever bending his own will. Her eyes wavered, and she turned her head away.

“I survived the fall of the capital, the kingdom, and shamelessly returned here. Now that I’ve seen the kingdom being rebuilt, I have no regrets. You can banish me or kill me.”

Phillip, who had given up everything, closed her eyes. Maximilian stared at her with dark eyes as she waited for his judgment. He was filled with sorrow at the sight of his uncle, who had lived his life with such confidence, in such a pathetic state.

“Stay here, Uncle. I’ll come again.”

“Very well…”

Her back looked so small as she turned away. Maximilian left the side chamber without saying another word.

Asha, who had regained her sanity, was caught up in Sejin’s mental world and suffered, but she barely managed to return to reality. But reality wasn’t exactly kind to her.

“Ugh?! Haaah♥♥”

As soon as she regained consciousness, Asha writhed at the stimulation she felt in her lower abdomen. She saw her belly, swollen to the size of Namsan Mountain, shrinking and tentacles pouring out.

“Again, I’m giving birth again, heehee♥ I just gave birth like this a while ago, ughh♥”

The faster her belly swelled, the faster she gave birth. In a prone position, Asha expelled the Tentacle from her Womb and belly.

Slap!

“Aah?!”

Asha screamed as she was suddenly hit on the Anus by a Tentacle strand. The sudden pain accelerated her childbirth. Now that she looked, there were even curved needles stuck in her nipples, and she was also spewing Breast milk. It was truly a nightmarish situation. Her lower body, which had only an Anus without thighs, was turning red as it was whipped.

But even as her body was being ravaged in such a mess, Asha felt a tingling pleasure amidst the shame.

“Ughh♥ It’s, it’s strange, why? Heehee♥♥”

Asha felt wronged that she felt pleasure even though her Anus was being whipped by a vine-like strand and her breasts were being hung on hooks and stretched like rubber bands. Even as she was being ravaged from head to toe, with no part of her body intact, she spewed out both Semen and Breast milk several times.

‘Is anyone there?! Please stop, ughh♥’

There was no one here who could save Asha, who had returned when the Mind entity was away. Rather, regaining her sanity had a negative effect, and she was suffering in pleasure that was like torture. Asha was constantly toyed with until she gave birth to all the Tentacle that filled her belly.

“Ugh, ughh♥ Ughh…”

Asha, who had expelled all the Tentacle from her Cunt and Anus, was dangling in the air. Beneath her stubby body, from which sticky Slime dripped, a pile of Tentacle was piled up.

Asha was someone who fainted from time to time even when she was in a state of pleasure. Now that she had regained her sanity, there was no way she could withstand the things she had enjoyed when she was lewd.

As time passed, Asha, who was barely conscious and groaning, was horrified when a strand entered her Yoni again.

“Haa! Don’t, don’t do it! Stop!”

In response to Asha’s words, the Mind entity, which had returned to where she was, pulled out the strand it had inserted into her Cunt.

“Haa…”

Asha broke out in a cold sweat as she looked at the Tentacle strand that looked like it was about to pour Semen into her Womb and impregnate her. She sighed in relief when she was finally able to communicate with the Mind entity.

[Is there a problem?]

‘There are many problems!’

[Please tell me what the problem is.]

“F, first of all, please take this off…”

Asha gestured to her nipples, and the hooks that had pierced through her nipples came off.

“Ugh♥ Haa…”

Asha realized that her body was in a serious condition when even the tingling she should have felt when the hooks came off disappeared and pleasure spread from her nipples again. As the ecstasy that had filled her head subsided and she was finally able to have a conversation, Asha felt a slight sense of relief.

Asha began to talk to the Mind entity with her torso wrapped in Tentacle. Green, slimy things were stuck to her Anus, which was covered in countless red marks from the harsh whipping. Asha frowned at the still-tingling sensation in her Anus and asked the Mind entity a question.

“How much work is left now?”

[Important parts still remain, but it is almost complete. In terms of proportion, it is about 70%, but in terms of importance, it is more than 20%.]

“Ugh, ugh…”

‘It’s a relief that there are still important parts left.’

[Important places must be made with care.]

Asha frowned in front of the Mind entity, who couldn’t hide its true feelings.

“But can you stop milking my breasts?”

Asha was being held by the Tentacle like a baby, but they continued to squeeze Breast milk from her breasts. She was constantly being caressed on her breasts, and milk was being squirted out, so she was distracted by the stimulation of her nipples and found it difficult to concentrate on the conversation.

[Due to the recent surge in the number of individuals, the supply of Breast milk has reached its limit. It must be produced at all times to prevent problems.]

As if it needed more, the Mind entity began to squeeze more milk from Asha. She watched as the white liquid squeezed from her breasts flowed somewhere.

“Aah♥ A, I understand. But you said that what you’re making is for the Ascension, right? What exactly is the Ascension?”

[It is an Ascension to find our origins.]

“Origins?”

Asha didn’t know if it was just her imagination, but the Mind entity’s tone seemed to have dropped slightly.

[We are not creatures born here. We were created in another world, another dimension. The Ascension is to find our homeland.]

“Not a homeland… Th, then if you Ascend, will you leave this place?”

[That is the result.]

If the Tentacle, which were nothing more than invasive species, left this world, this kind of conflict would disappear. Asha breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that the work she had unintentionally been cooperating with was not wrong.

“When you leave, will anything happen to the world we live in?”

[The ground near here may partially collapse, but there will be no major impact.]

“Could I call Lucia to check it out?”

[If she destroys the Ascension Site,]

“I’ll calm her down! Lucy will listen to me too.”

[I beg you. If the Ascension Site that we have created so far is destroyed, we will have to collect humans again.]

“Oh, no! I’ll make sure she doesn’t destroy anything!”

Asha had no desire to repeat all of this.
