Final Chapter. Julian

“A harem, you say…”

Remiella became even more embarrassed after saying those words herself.

It’s extremely rare for a dragon to create a harem.

Dragons, in the first place, aren’t beings with much sexual desire.

There’s no reason for such a dragon to bother creating a harem, where they have to take numerous wives and give them a lot of attention.

‘Usually, they’d be too much of a hassle to do it.’

But the Demon Dragon was the exception.

And Yulian was a very special existence among those Demon Dragons, having surpassed Ancient Dragon status and entered the realm of Primal Dragon.

That’s why Yulian’s harem seemed to be on a different scale.

A Demon Dragon never gives up a woman they’ve been with to anyone else.

Therefore, they somewhat control the number of lovers they make, even if they have overflowing sexual desire.

In Yulian’s case, however, that number was by no means small.

The number of women gathered here was roughly ten. And everyone was enough to make Remiella’s eyes widen.

‘I’ve seen them often and know them… but everyone… seems so beautiful.’

It’s said that humans and demons have different aesthetic senses.

But in the end, since they’re both humanoid races, the standards of beauty aren’t that different.

In the Demon King’s country, she’s the most beautiful woman in the kingdom.

She’s mentioned as a standard of beauty representing the Demon King’s country along with Cecilia, but.

Just looking at the human women gathered here was enough to make her feel intimidated.

‘More than anything, even if I can enter the same harem, there’s a difference in rank.’

The great war that unfolded in the Demon King’s country.

During that war, no, from before that war even started, the six women who followed Yulian and assisted him.

It was obvious that they, who had lived with Yulian in the Pantheon, would become the highest-ranking wives.

‘Of course, I don’t wish for much. But if I could just become Yulian-nim’s wife officially…’

Still, Remiella felt strange just being invited to this place.

The one who organized this gathering of women from the battlefield was the Imperial Princess of the Empire, Lilia Lamire Ashterique.

Of course, it was a gathering for the women who had gathered on the battlefield to rest and build friendships, but.

As Ustina, who came with Remiella, had already said.

The criteria for gathering here were all too easy to guess.

‘Perhaps… being able to spend even a few nights with Yulian-nim might have been the greatest luck and happiness of my life…’

Unlike her reputation as a knight.

Remiella lacked a lot of confidence as a woman.

So, even after entering the assembly hall, she continued to be mindful of the surrounding atmosphere.

“Heh heh! I, Chloe de Aitern, the daughter of an Imperial Duke and officially a Countess, dare to personally welcome you all!”

And seeing Chloe, who confidently spread her fan and shouted confidently in that place, made her feel even more intimidated.

She had already fought alongside Chloe in the Demon King’s country, but.

Returning to the Empire, her position was completely different from what she had thought.

Her father’s position was now so high that he was on par with Yulian’s maternal grandfather, Count Wilhelm, so.

It wouldn’t be strange for Chloe to confidently engage in a battle of nerves against the women gathered here.

“Hmph. These kinds of gatherings are always awkward. And I’m too old…”

Even Ustina, who had been indifferent to the atmosphere, looked troubled.

“It… it must be awkward because most of them are human women. Dragon women show off their maturity as they get older, so it’s not like that at all.”

“Hmph. Is that so?”

Ustina answered briefly like that, but.

It seemed like she liked Remiella’s answer.

In reality, Ustina was very attractive as a woman.

Cool features and a tall height.

On top of that, she had red hair that you couldn’t take your eyes off of and huge breasts.

Remiella knew very well that even knowing she was the fearsome Red Dragon, many demon soldiers couldn’t take their eyes off of her.

‘I need to try harder! Even in this Holy War… I need to somehow make an achievement…’

Gathering here was clearly meant to be a celebration of friendship, but.

There might be something special that only the members of that harem could do.

Remiella, who was awkwardly wandering around inside the harem, no, the banquet hall building, which had been created in one of the main camps.

She was startled at that very moment.

“Oh my! Hey! It’s really Remiella!”

Someone hugged her tightly.

Remiella had pledged her chastity to Yulian.

So, she had sworn to Yunir that she wouldn’t let any man’s hand touch her until the moment she died.

But she soon calmed down.

There couldn’t be any men here.

Even the servants helping with the work were all women when she looked around.

Although it hadn’t been officially declared.

It was obvious when looking at the composition of the members gathered.

And that voice was very familiar.

A feeling that was affectionate and very much missed.

Remiella turned her head.

A slender elf with gray hair was standing there.

“Tricia?!”

“Of course! It’s your old friend Tricia. Hehe. How have you been? I heard the battle in the Demon King’s country was fierce. I’m so glad you’re safe!”

“Tricia…”

Remiella unknowingly looked like she was about to cry.

High Elf Tricia.

She was from Yunir’s temple, but she was a long-time friend who had disappeared as if fleeing the Demon King’s country due to Cecilia’s Demon King contract.

She had finally met her again.

Tricia wiped away the tears that were quickly flowing down with her hand.

“What’s wrong, crybaby Remiella. Are you already crying? The Great General of the Agriel Army and the Knight Commander of the Royal Knights is so weak. Of course, a beautiful High Elf like you looks like a painting even when crying, but…”

“D, don’t say things like that.”

Unlike her beautiful appearance, Remiella had been with Yulian since the battle with Aquarite.

She had played a major role as a knight commander in those numerous battles that would go down in legend.

She was the one who was treated like a goddess among the soldiers of the Demon Army.

Tricia casually calling Remiella’s childhood nickname.

Remiella’s heart ached even more because her my-pace personality was still the same.

As they rejoiced at each other’s safety and talked for a while.

Tricia whispered in Remiella’s ear.

“Hey, Remiella.”

“H, heet?! You know I’m sensitive in my ears! Don’t, don’t whisper so close.”

“But it’s not something I can say out loud. You smell sexy.”

“W, what does that mean!”

“I felt it from the fact that you came to this place. You spent the night with Yulian-nim too, didn’t you?”

“Hey, how can you say something like that so openly!”

“I see… Even the most beautiful woman in the Demon King’s country was eventually won over by Yulian-nim. Hehe.”

Saying that, Tricia hugged Remiella again slightly.

“It’s different from skinny me. This extraordinary chest is still the same, huh?”

“D, don’t say such lewd things. If the people gathered here hear…”

“What does it matter? Rather, Remiella, you need to try harder too. If you really want to win Yulian-nim’s heart. You have to make good use of your elven looks and body.”

She turned her head slightly at those words.

It was really embarrassing if others heard it, but.

As a demon, she knew to some extent about the Demon Dragon’s harem.

As a member of the harem, spending happy times with the owner of the harem was everyone’s ultimate goal.

So, the act of spending the night together was also very important.

Being able to create and maintain a harem of beautiful women.

It was proof of being that strong. The successor was also important.

“Anyway, Remiella. It’s strange that neither you nor I are virgins anymore… We both always said we had no intention of getting married.”

Remiella had more to say to that.

“You were the one who said you would never think about men, Tricia. But the fact that you’re here means… what happened? I don’t think something like that would happen between you and Yulian-nim, given your personality.”

“That… I can’t believe it either, to be honest. I’ve never felt that way even when looking at a handsome man… but Yulian-nim was different.”

Cecilia felt anew how amazing Yulian was to have both Tricia and the Cecilia sisters.

While the participants who knew each other were continuing their conversations in groups of three or five.

Lilia, who was sitting at the head table of the banquet hall, said.

“Then I have something to say to everyone I’ve invited here.”

Everyone’s eyes turned to Lilia at those words.

No matter how much she was a great general of the demons.

She knew well enough the weight of the crown held by the Holy Lamire Empire’s Emperor.

Moreover, she was the only one here who was officially engaged to Yulian under Imperial law.

With normal thinking, it wouldn’t be strange to say that all the women gathered here were Yulian’s mistresses.

But Lilia’s expression was surprisingly kind and full of smiles.

‘No wonder… they say that saint’s benevolence is like the sea.’

Even Remiella, who was a demon, felt like her guard would crumble at Lilia’s smile.

The banquet hall became quiet, and Lilia began to speak.

“Everyone gathered here is special. Some of you know the reason, and some of you don’t, but… it’s better to be honest than to beat around the bush.”

Some of the women who had already noticed the meaning of those words flinched.

And Lilia continued to speak.

“You are all members who have officially entered the Demon Dragon’s harem. In other words, it means you have had a relationship with Yulian-nim.”

Everyone fell silent at those words.

It wasn’t something a fiancée could normally say.

But everyone soon agreed with Lilia’s words that followed.

And that Yulian’s harem would play a bigger role than anything else in the current Holy War.

After Lilia finished all the explanations.

Surprisingly, someone unexpected appeared here.

“Oh my! You’ve finally arrived! Everyone, please welcome him! The person who will become our husband! Yulian von Reinhardt-nim has arrived!”

Without even having time to think about the meaning of those shocking words.

Everyone’s eyes simultaneously turned to Yulian.
