Chapter 180

180: Trick And Treat – N // The next morning. I naturally headed to ‘Night’s Fairy.’ No matter how much time I had, I needed a plan to steal the Etheric Herbs arriving in Lakers. A project led by the royal family wouldn’t be easy. And accurate planning requires information and time. Having obtained Shelina’s permission, how to steal the herbs depended solely on Aiden’s plan. Thinking it would be better to start planning sooner, I went to Emily’s room, but, “Oop, oom… choop…” “….” Seeing the two intertwined so familiarly, I paused. Emily Artion. Completely naked, with her red hair spread over her pale back, she was diligently moving her head.

-Clink.

Around her neck was a red leather collar with a thin metal chain attached. The one she was serving was, needless to say, Aiden. “…Hmm.” Seeing that, I naturally closed the door and leaned against the wall. Thinking it was a good show, I intended to quietly wait for their fun to end. However, Aiden greeted me. “…You’re here?” Well, he couldn’t have missed me. Unlike Emily, who had her face buried between Aiden’s legs, he was sitting on the bed, facing the door. Inevitably, I nodded and replied. “Yeah. Should I get naked too?” “…Usually, isn’t it polite to offer to leave in a situation like this?” “That’s your etiquette.” While we exchanged banter, the veins on Aiden’s hand became more pronounced. That was probably a sign that he was close to climaxing. “Hoop, oom. Choop…” And Emily, as if knowing that, shook her flowing red hair even more vigorously. Her appearance, diligently serving with her face buried between the man’s legs, exuded a lasciviousness that couldn’t be seen in her usual self.

-Clink, clank.

With each movement, the chain around her neck made a rough sound. Listening to the symphony of pleasure and metal filling the room, I quietly thought. “….” If it were the Emily Artion I knew, she could easily tear off that leather collar, if not the chain. She had become that strong. But at the same time, she would never tear off the collar around her neck. That was Emily Artion. Either way. And both ways. “Ugh!” And Aiden seemed used to being watched. With a rough groan, he shuddered and grabbed Emily’s head, pulling her towards him. “…!” Emily flinched at the touch, but soon accepted Aiden’s hand as if used to it. …Perhaps I taught her well. Feeling a slight sense of pride, I waited for their act to end. “Haa…” “Good, you did well.” “Heh… Thank you, Master…” “….” I didn’t realize it when I was the one being subjected to it, but seeing it from a distance felt strange. That is. A slightly different feeling, you could say. Or a feeling of regret, perhaps. If she smiled more foolishly and licked the semen from her lips, she would be laid down on the bed and receive a second load right away. “Still not enough, I guess.” “Ahut!?” But as if ignoring my trivial opinion, Aiden roughly lifted Emily and threw her onto the bed. …Never mind. That much is enough, I guess. Emily’s skill in naturally lifting her hips to make insertion easier as she fell was familiar, as if she had experienced it more than once or twice. …Does Aiden know that? I hope he doesn’t yet, but he probably does. With that, Aiden laid his former friend down, raised his still-erect penis, and looked at me. “…Sorry, Laila. You’ll have to wait a bit longer.” “How long?” “Well, she said I could use her as much as I want today.” Looking at Emily with a questioning gaze, she smiled faintly and nodded. “Yeah.” “Didn’t you stay up all night yesterday?” “…Maybe?” With a giggling expression and a captivating smile, Emily tilted her head. Indeed. She probably spent all night receiving men, and now she’s going to have sex with Aiden again. A posture worthy of a succubus practitioner. …Well, they probably won’t just have sex all day. Aiden isn’t that energetic. “Okay, then…” I nodded and lightly emitted a thought. A magical trigger I learned from Mien. The wave of thought stimulating magic spread through Emily’s small room. “Keeing…?” Did she feel the wave? Kali, who had rolled under the bed, peeked out and looked at me with a small cry. “Kali, come here.” “Gyaang!” As expected, she recognized her parent. I grabbed Kali, who jumped into my arms, and stroked her, then said to Aiden. “Then, continue. Call me if you need me.” “…Really?” “Yeah, I’m serious.” Smiling, Aiden shook his head with a disgusted expression. “No, it’s okay…” // “Huk, ugh, hawoooo!!”

-Splatter, splatter.

Before long, the room was filled with panting and the sound of fluids splashing between flesh. “Gyaru…” But Kali didn’t seem to care, wagging her white tail and curling up. Seeing her act like a kitten, I smiled wryly and stroked Kali’s fur. “Out, ugut. Haa-ut!!” On the bed, Emily was moaning intensely. Her swollen breasts shook vigorously, and saliva dripped from her parted red lips. The appearance of a woman lost in pleasure was obvious to anyone. With her cheek buried in the sheet, Emily’s expression as she was pushed by Aiden looked happy. “….” While feeling envious, I quietly lowered my gaze and looked at Kali. Kali is a monster born with Doppelganger genes. Her ability to transform into a kitten was due to that. But Kali has limitations. Emily seems to think Kali will become smarter someday, but I think differently. The monster Laufer, who planted his seed in me, wasn’t very intelligent. That monster, whose form of reproduction is close to self-replication, still doesn’t lose its form even though it took some of my genes. ‘Hoo…’ I had mixed feelings about Kali. Quirjev wants to study Kali. And I know it’s because of the core inside Kali’s body. A core with Doppelganger genes, and with some neutralization of magic due to me. Since Quirjev’s research is to complete a monster’s core that humans can use, he would naturally covet it. Of course, I don’t think he would immediately cut open the goose that lays the golden eggs. Kali has not only a neutralized core but also Doppelganger genes. “Gyareung.” “Yeah, yeah.” I stroked Kali’s purring back and looked at Emily again. “Higeuk, ugh! Uwooot!!” …But, is that what it looks like when you see it up close? Emily’s face, flushed and moaning, was both lewd and beautiful. Is that what I look like when I’m being done by a man? I haven’t been embraced in an environment good enough to have a mirror, so I don’t know. I was worried that my face might be more distorted and ugly, but I think that’s okay. After a long time, “Ugh….” I looked at Emily, who was lying on the bed and moaning, and asked. “Was it good?” “….” Aiden, who was sitting next to her, looked nervous. He had been happily slapping her ass, but he was scared in that aspect. Maybe men are easy to understand. Including myself. If Emily gave a bad review, Aiden would be heartbroken and become a shut-in. But fortunately, Emily nodded with a happy expression. “Heh, uh… yeah.” Giggling, she added with a languid sigh. “Sex with… past life friend… good…” “….” “….” As expected, a succubus practitioner. She pretends not to be, but she’s quite the pervert. // Of course, today’s meeting has a purpose. So I forcibly separated the two, who didn’t want to part, and headed to the inn where El was.

-Toc, toc.

Knocking on the door of the inn and opening it, I saw El sitting cross-legged. Sitting on the bed, she opened her eyes as soon as she sensed us. “…You’re here?” “Yeah.” I replied briefly and introduced Aiden. “This is Aiden. His name is Jo Hee-won… You’ve heard the story, right?” It’s the first time for a three-way meeting. El, Emily, and I know each other, but Aiden doesn’t. “….” Glancing at his expression, I could see that he was nervous. It’s understandable. His words and actions don’t show it, but El is a mysterious beauty with red eyes at first glance. It’s understandable to be overwhelmed by that atmosphere. …Later, he’ll feel overwhelmed from a slightly different perspective. “It’s been a while.” It’s been a while. What better words to express the relationship between us? Even though our past lives maintained a relationship as thin as a spider web, those memories remain vivid. El greeted him with simple words, and Aiden nodded in response. “…Yeah, it’s been a while.” We’re from the same hometown. That alone was enough reason to become close. The warmth of the purring white kitten was comforting. “Gyaang…” Stroking Kali’s fur, which looked just like a real cat, I quietly listened to Aiden’s words. “First, the Etheric Herb convoy will gather in Lakers.” “….” “And the information I got is the list of knights, the size of the convoy, the gathering points for each herb, and the means of transportation, that’s about it.” I was just going to listen, but curiosity took over. “Where did you get that information?” “I have reliable sources.” “…Aiden, I don’t mean to belittle you, but it’s hard for anyone to believe that a mere petty thief knows the kingdom’s secrets, don’t you think?” At my blunt words, Aiden asked with a taken-aback expression. “…You didn’t mean to belittle me?” “Sorry if you felt bad. Want to touch my breasts?” “No. It’s okay…” “Then Emily’s, not mine.” “Huh, me…?” At my words, Emily asked, flustered. But after a moment of confusion, Emily looked at Aiden as if it didn’t matter and asked. “Do you want to touch them?” Seeing us, El sighed. “…Can you guys focus on the conversation?” “Yeah, okay.” The conversation went off track for a moment. It was because of me, though. I brushed off the slightly apologetic feeling with a demon-like brazenness and focused on Aiden’s words again. “Even if it’s the kingdom’s secret, getting it isn’t that difficult. After all, the paperwork is done by low-level officials, and especially with new projects like the Etheric Herbs, security is hard to be thorough because of money issues.” “Aha.” “The problem is what you do with that information. Even if you get the information, usually you think about getting a piece of the pie, not stealing the whole pie.” Indeed, it’s a document with the royal seal on it.

What kind of lunatic would look at that and try to steal it? Especially knowing the power of the Kilkard Kingdom. That’s why the security is likely lax, which was the gist of what Aiden was saying. “…Isn’t that too uncertain?” “Nothing is ever certain. We won’t come up with any better ideas by just talking about it here.” El speaks with unease, but Aiden replies lightly. And I take his words and ask again. “So, ultimately, we have to go there ourselves?” “Exactly.” Indeed, there’s no more information to be gained here. If we’re planning to steal from Lakers, we need to go to Lakers first. “Right, and Layla said she’s from there, so maybe we can get some help from her.” “…Ah, about that…” At Aiden’s words, I give an awkward smile and raise my hand. “When I left the city, there were signs of a major shake-up in the underworld, you know?” “…Huh?” “Things happened. So, I’m not sure if the people I knew are still around.” “….” Maybe it’s for the best. Still, I did give Keir a heads-up. The organization he was involved with, Ro… or something like that, I don’t quite remember. Anyway, if that’s been wiped out, it’s no exaggeration to say that almost no one I know will be there. Since I haven’t been back in two years anyway, there’s no way to know how things have changed. The underworld is a place where people die quickly. If anyone’s still around, maybe Seran, who was a guard. “So, what I’m saying is, don’t get your hopes up too high. I know the geography a bit, but I can’t guarantee anything in terms of people.” “…Is that so?” At my words, Aiden nods with disappointment. But that was all his reaction amounted to. Well, with two superhuman powerhouses, there’s practically no chance of failure. Frankly, if we’re just careful of the Dragon Knight, I could wipe out all the knights myself and get the Etheric Herb. The problem is dealing with the aftermath. To minimize that aftermath, Aiden’s plan is necessary. And even if that plan is full of holes, I don’t care. I can easily handle a few holes.
