Chapter 83
There was a time when I thought he might not be a bad person, despite being peculiar. Perhaps my judgment was severely lacking. Kyren, who was playfully moving his foot as if fascinated by the tentacles wrapping around his ankles and climbing up, shamelessly remarked,
“It’s a trick right? No way, that’s impossible.”
“You went as far as drugging me. You’re truly remarkable.”
Thanks to that, I ended up witnessing blood as well. My stomach still felt uncomfortable. Surely, they weren’t all accomplices? When I turned my face with a distorted expression and tilted my head, it happened.
“Drugged? What does it mean?”
“Seriously, Your Majesty? Did you really drug her?”
Endymion and Damian, without waiting for anyone else, coldly spoke, and Odil, who took a deep breath, had a face so pale it seemed lifeless. It was clear that Kyren’s actions were arbitrary, it was reassuring.
Everyone looked at Kyren with perplexed eyes. Whether he felt the gazes or not, he awkwardly contorted his expression, while I found a bit of composure.
“No, I didn’t mean any harm.”
“Don’t criminals always say that? ‘I didn’t mean any harm,’ ‘I didn’t think of that.’ So, what should we think of this cute prank that’s not harmful nor ill-intentioned but seems a bit too much for a mere joke?”
As I nervously gestured towards the half-filled teacup, a black orb emerged from thin air, swallowed it, and crumpled it. Seeing the table thrown halfway across the room, Kyren blinked and said,
“Lily, you’re angry right now, aren’t you?”
“Yes.”
“That’s what it looks like. You’re smiling, yet you look murderous. Ah, somehow I miss that feeling.”
“I really don’t understand what you’re talking about. Who would just stay calm after something like this happens?”
“There are quite a few…”
“Maybe there were, but I’m not one of them.”
Frowning at his incomprehensible words, I expressed my annoyance. Suddenly, I thought that if this man were to tell someone to die, there might be people who would die. But what’s the point?
I approached him with an exasperated expression.
“Why? Does it bother you when I speak like this?”
“What? How can I? Oh, but I really didn’t put anything bad in it. Everyone drank the same thing and they’re fine.”
“Whether it’s good or bad, why are you the judge of that?”
I furrowed my brow, looking down at him with a puzzled expression. While I had a rather unpredictable personality, I could confidently say that I wasn’t as extreme as this man. Moreover, what Kyren was doing from the beginning wasn’t something that could be done with ordinary shamelessness.
The tentacles, responding to my emotions, were gradually burrowing into his clothes. However, Kyren seemed oblivious, still gaping as if he didn’t expect me to speak this way.
“You really seem like a different person. Earlier, you were smiling so innocently.”
“Isn’t that something I should say ? Earlier, you were smiling so friendly.”
“Even the way you mock is still the same. Nevertheless, regardless of the approach, you’re not very good at hiding your true feelings. Whatever you’re thinking, it clearly shows on your face, Lily. That’s quite adorable.”
And his seemingly nonchalant remark, like he had never been flustered, took me back. I was infuriated. It was annoying that he kept twisting my words, but what bothered me even more was that, despite knowing I was angry, he continued to act like this.
“I finally realize how much you underestimated me.”
“Underestimated you? No, that’s not true. I told you. I think Lily is so adorable.”
“Really? You think I’m adorable, so you say things like that and even do such things? Well, fine. I can find you adorable too if that’s what you want.”
“What? What are you talking about…”
Almost simultaneously with me pressing my nails against Kyren’s throat, a man who had sprung out from behind a wall aimed a knife at my neck. It was the same man who had always followed Kyren and had been sensitively reacting to my movements.
“Step back, woman. I won’t forgive any more rudeness.”
The curved blade precisely targeted my throat. In response to the chilling tone, I smirked defiantly once again.
“You’re unbelievably quick, aren’t you? Were you watching me all along?”
“Shut up and get rid of those filthy hands immediately. How dare you…”
Although his face wasn’t visible due to the mask inside the hood, the man’s murderous intent was glaringly evident. I cheerfully remarked
“If I’m not going to, then what are you going to do?”
“Aren’t you afraid of death?”
“Well, there should be people willing to die with me so that the journey isn’t lonely, right?”
I boldly laughed as I embraced Kyren, and an immediate reaction followed.
“Um, Lily. Are you saying that I’m the one who would die with you?”
I drew my lips without offering any particular response. An eye for an eye, right? Threat for threat, isn’t that justified?
When Kyren, with a frustrated expression, suddenly trembled, my smile deepened. I pressed my nails against his throat and jaw as if petting a dog.
The man let out a sharp cry, but I wasn’t the one he was addressing.
“What on earth are you guys doing? This woman dares to harm the Emperor!”
Rolling his eyes, the man shouted at Damian, Endymion, and Odil. It might be awkward if they all stepped forward. When I applied pressure to the arm holding the neck, Kyren, bewildered, looked at me. It was when I grinned, observing his swollen lower body.
“Oh? Even if you say that, can’t you see that? They seem more grotesque than when I saw them before. Don’t you think so, Eddie?”
“That’s right. The leather seems much tougher now; it doesn’t seem easy to cut. Don’t you think so, Odil?”
“Ah, aahh.”
Seeing Damian, Endymion, and Odil passing the conversation like passing the blame to each other, I couldn’t help but burst into laughter. They pretended not to notice, even though they had forcibly cut and torn, using their divine power to drive them away. It seemed that they were inclined to support me.
Kyren’s handsome face contorted more and more. With resentful glances alternately directed at the commanders and me, he finally closed his eyes and, with a trembling voice, said,
“Sir, Sir Chade. Please step back.”
“Your Majesty, what are you talking about!”
“It’s okay, it’s okay, please just step back.”
Kyren’s eyes turned red, as if he might burst into tears at any moment. Even though I already thought his face was pretty, it seemed even more beautiful when he cried. Perhaps the tentacles grazed a sensitive area, as he reflexively grabbed my clothes and gasped for breath.
“Di, did you have this in mind from the beginning?”
“You said I was adorable, right? So, I wanted to find you adorable too.”
“That’s too much…”
“What has this woman done!”
“N no, Sir Chade, please, please, please don’t do anything… Hu-ugh!”
“Your Majesty?”
“Your Majesty, what’s going on? All of a sudden…”
He took a deep breath and twisted his waist. Then, as his lower body swelled, tentacles protruded like branches. The purple eyes, now filled with confusion and fear, finally pleased me. I lifted his chin with my fingers and smiled.
“You look so pretty when you cry. I want to make you cry even more.”
“Uh, hu-uht, wait!”
“Don’t worry. I’ll cut it so cleanly that there won’t be any traces. There are competent doctors in the palace who will sew it up neatly.”
Since the tentacles were connected to sensation, I could vividly feel where and how they were tightening. A thick one wrapped around the inside of the thigh, and from there, a thin one extended, entwining around the testicles and the base of the shaft. The wind blew into Kyren’s ears and there was a sharp sound.
When I turned my head, the man named Chade stood there, seemingly dazed, without even thinking of picking up the dropped knife. Damian spoke amidst the stunned and pale expression.
“Wait, wait a moment. Our Majesty is still unmarried. He probably hasn’t even used it, so removing it is too cruel.”
“It doesn’t matter anyway. His Majesty won’t have to use it in his lifetime.”
“En, Endymion, am I getting revenge on you because I said unpleasant things to you? Huh?”
“…It’s not entirely wrong. You have made it clear you never had any intention of having an Empress, and you said you would pass the throne to the child Lubich has.”
“Even you, Odil? Wait, hold on. Please, Lily, stop it! Don’t touch there!”
“Where is ‘there’? I can’t see it because it’s inside the clothes.”
“Ah, uh, huht, on, on the butt, right now…”
Endymion and Odil turned away indifferently. Even when the tentacles boldly stirred his insides, he shed tears. And as he looked at me like a wet puppy, I couldn’t help but want to make him cry even more. When I wickedly laughed, Kyren once again called for Damian.
“Da, Damian!”
“Uh, that, um, sorry, Your Majesty. Well, you probably won’t die, right? Right?”
“I’m going to die as a man! Huht, ah, ahk, sto, stop, sorry, Lily. I’m sorry!”
I could feel the thick tip inching into the butt. Come to think of it, I summoned it out of anger, so unlike usual, I wasn’t even spilling an aphrodisiac. Was it painful? Well, I didn’t really care much, but for some reason, I wanted to pierce through him myself.
As I hesitated, I felt a sharp gaze. When I raised my head, Endymion was staring at me persistently. I bluntly said,
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
Lily would definitely ask, demanding an explanation like she did back then. However, Endymion opened his mouth with a very concerned expression.
“Is your body okay now?”
“Huh?”
“You were in so much pain that it was unusual.”
“Oh, I’m fine. But are you genuinely concerned about me right now?”
Though still trapped by the tentacles and unable to come closer, he reached out, clenching his fist. His earnestness felt somehow awkward. Endymion spoke with a serious expression.
“You’re stating the obvious. I genuinely want to check if you’re really okay, even wanting to examine you thoroughly.”
“Hyung, your words are a bit suggestive.”
“I didn’t mean to imply anything inappropriate, Damian. In truth, I couldn’t have imagined you doing such a thing to His Majesty, but in any case, it might have been better for Miss Lily to fall asleep.”
Looking at Kyren, who was almost hugging me and shaking his whole body, Endymion spoke. While gently stroking Kyren’s back, I nodded with mixed emotions. I could feel Endymion’s worrying gaze continuously reaching me, and it made me somewhat uneasy.
“I was really surprised, really, really. I’m relieved that you’re okay despite the amount of blood, but it would be good to have a thorough examination to make sure there are no other issues.”
“That’s what I’m saying. What on earth was that?”
Damian was the one to voice the question that Odil struggled to express. But I need to know something to provide an answer. Though a lot of blood was shed, and it did help alleviate the terrible pain that was boiling in my stomach, I released my pent-up frustration through the tentacles.
“Li, Lily, Lily! St, uh, strange, huhk!”
The tentacles, which had just been teasing, began to move leisurely, stimulating his tip. Unable to say anything coherent, he clung to me, and I couldn’t help but smile at the sight. Chade seemed unable to touch Kyren due to the command.
“Just looking at the pain in the stomach and the hemorrhaging, it seems like menstruation, but it’s the first time for a body incapable of normal reproductive activity. I wonder what this man did.”
The sensation of Kyren twitching was vividly transmitted. Despite seeming to resist desperately, he looked unfamiliar with sexual teasing, as if he had never experienced it. As we continued the brief conversation, the occasional short moans kept slipping in.
Damian seemed concerned, even looking at me, but Odil and Endymion showed almost no reaction.
“Odil, Endymion, aren’t you worried about this man?”
“It’s okay. If it’s not now, when else will he have the chance to mend his ways?”
“Your Majesty also needs to consider the feelings of other people.”
“…Will he really change his ways and develop consideration for others by doing that?”
“Isn’t it said that only those who have lost something precious truly understand that pain?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Is, is that so?”
So, does that mean what’s precious to them is me? It feels oddly ticklish. But well, it didn’t feel unpleasant. I said in a cheerful tone,
“That’s right, Kyren.”
“You, you’re too much, all of you… Lil, Lily, please, stop. I, I won’t do anything, huht, you dislike anymore, so…”
“Thanks to you, I’ve learned that this kind of threat works better than threatening someone’s life. So, I should treat you even more affectionately.”
As I combed through his sweaty hair and stroked his ear, he began to cry even more, and I started to get a little excited.
