Translator: Nat

-Aegir POV-

On the way back to Rafen .

「The wind won't stop . 」

「…… yeah . 」

I comment while drinking water, which Natia answers .

「Look . The rain is turning into snow . 」

「……yeah . 」

The cold winds and rain are falling a little past noon .

We took shelter in a nearby farm hut to avoid catching a cold, however the rain didn't stop and we lost time in the day to travel to the next city, so we decided to stay for the night .

「This is pretty run-down for a hut and there are gaps everywhere to let in the wind . If you go off on your own, it'll be cold . Come over here . 」

「……umu . 」

I put my hand on Natia's shoulder and pull her close to me .

I wonder why she's making such a troubled expression .

Perhaps it's because I made love to Celia and the others in front of her?

Celia had her hands against the wall and a blanket wrapped around her as I pounded her from behind .

Alice was lifted up by me as I drilled deeply into her ass .

Sekrit was fucked as she desired―― forcefully, as I countlessly hold down her face and arm while she scratches my chest .

Right now, the three of them are sleeping soundly in the corner .

「Wait, don't tell me, are you jealous?」

「No I'm not, idiot! Obviously it feels awkward after watching you fuck left and right!!」

She throws a lemon at my head .

But to me, Natia seems far from being angry .

She's glancing at me back and forth and blushing…… almost as if she's in the mood .

「Now now, don't be angry . 」

When I touch her shoulder, she lets out a short squeal .

I can do it .

I'm sure of it .

Natia is a healthy woman as well .

It's natural to be turned on when you watch others have sex .

「Now calm down so we can warm each other up . 」

「Wai-! Wah!」

I don't wait for her answer and bring her under the same blanket .

「I-I'm not quite ready to――」

「I know . Let's kiss . 」

I peer into Natia's eyes .

「You don't kno―― ah……」

「If you don't want it, then resist me . 」

My lips slowly approach hers, but I don't feel any fight from her .

Our lips meet .

「Nnmu!!」

「Nn……」

Our lips part quietly and Natia turns red, touching her lips in shock .

「Y-you k-kissed me! That was my first too!」

I softly pat Natia's head .

「Those were some delicious lips . 」

I push Natia down .

「I want to take you right here . 」

I proceed to kiss her neck and nape .

「No, I'm scared!」

Natia puts her hands on my head to try and move me away .

Her feeble voice is cute .

She doesn't seem mentally prepared yet .

If I go any further, it will be against her will .

I need a compromise plan .

「Fine . I won't penetrate you . Only embracing you is fine, right?」

「You're really just going to embrace me?」

Natia stops struggling .

I lift my body and then strip .

「Why are you taking off your clothes!? Were you lying and actually intend to fuck me!? Liar! Traitor!」

Lots of lemons fly at me .

「Don't worry . I won't deceive you . 」

I get naked and hug Natia tightly .

Normally she would also be naked and I would eat her up, but not this time .

「Your clothes will stay on . That way you can be assured I can't put it in . 」

With her top layer taken off, she's in long sleeves and a skirt which goes up to her knees .

I've pushed her down with her skirt flipped up and my dick is rubbing against her thigh .

「Although it's not going in, something hot is touching my thigh……」

I look into Natia's eyes and move my hips in earnest .

My meat rod softly prods at the base of her crotch .

If she wasn't wearing underwear, it would go in without a hitch .

「Natia, Natia!」

「Au, auauu . 」

I grab her waist and thrust vigorously on top of her clothes .

If she wasn't wearing any clothes, we would be fucking in the missionary position .

「I can touch your boobs, right?」

「……」

She doesn't answer so I grab the mounds―― try to grab them and fail so I rub them instead .

My sense of reason is at its limit .

I'm going to pick up the pace .

「Uoooh!」

「Kyaa!」

I hold up both of Natia's thighs and swing my hips furiously .

「The vibrations are transmitting inside . 」

Her underwear is soaking wet .

I caress Natia's cheek, knead her chest through her clothes and also poke her genitals through her clothes .

「Ah…… uuuu……」

I feel Natia's body start relaxing, her legs go limp and spread wider, and her hands grab my shoulders .

She must be getting there soon .

「Natia, I love you!」

「Auu!」

I give a strong thrust as I shout .

It would have been enough to push deep inside her if she didn't have any underwear on .

Still, she can probably feel my dick twitching through the cloth .

I stop moving and kiss Natia once again .

「Nn . 」

She's not agonizing this time, rather she's looking at me with moist eyes .

「Can I take this interfering cloth out of the way?」

I lower her underwear slowly as I ask .

Seeing a sticky thread pull down from her crotch makes me happy .

That means she's aroused .

Her vagina is pink and isn't stained or darkened .

It's a beautiful virgin pussy .

「Can I push it in like this?」

「W-well……」

Natia's breathing gets rougher and she doesn't clearly reject me .

The tip of my dick presses against her entrance .

「I'm going to make you my woman . 」

「Aaahh . 」

I slowly move my hips forward .

Right before inserting my erect cock, I give Natia a kiss .

「Don't…… you can't……」

Her tiny hole finally gets pierced by the head and her purity――

「Noooooーーー!!」

Natia suddenly screams .

At the same time she backhands me, knees my crotch and twists my nipple .

「Guoh!」

The slap and knee didn't work, but the nipple twist hurt .

「Haa, haa! That was close! I almost got swept by the mood! A little more and I would have been done!」

Natia quickly puts her damp underwear back on, then her shirt and even her bulky coat .

「You would have been mine in three more seconds……」

「Hph――!!」

The lumpy Natia threatens me .

I know pursuing any further would be too persistent on my part .

「Alright . I'll give up this time . At least let me sleep with you . 」

「Put that thing away first!」

I reluctantly sheath my rod .

It's so hard to put my pants on when it's erect .

「Don't look down on a 75 year old virgin . I'm not a simple girl who gets swept by the mood!」

Natia complains in my arms after my clothes are back on .

Soon, the two of us fall asleep enveloped in the same blanket .

In my dreams, I got Natia pregnant after fucking her over and over .

The next day, I wake up to Natia's screams and shouts of abuse .

「This stupid fool! Lecher! Pervert!」

I had a big wet dream because of my lewd thoughts and got Natia's bottom half sticky while she was sleeping in my arms .

「Ha, ha, ha!」

「Don't laugh, idiot!」

I couldn't fuck Natia .

However it's good that I'm slowly getting closer to her .

Now it's time to head back to Rafen .

-Third Person POV-

Meanwhile . A Certain City in Libatis .

Two people stare at each other from across a table .

「Welcome Your Majesty Wilhelmina, it's an honor to meet you . 」

「Likewise, Vice Minister Juno . 」

Wilhelmina offers to shake hands with Juno first .

It's unprecedented for the emperor of a country like Wilhelmina to ask for a handshake with a government official like Juno, no matter how high ranking he may be .

When the perplexed Juno accepts nonetheless, a smile forms on Wilhelmina's face like a blooming flower .

The soft, warm hand and beautiful smile doesn't give a poor expression to the experienced diplomat .

「Now then, shall we talk about that matter immediately?」

「You mean the non-aggression treaty?」

Juno's facial expression returns to a softer one .

「Yes, I'm being serious . Otherwise I wouldn't leave the country for it, unofficial or not . 」

Considering the details of how two hostile powers, Altair and Vandolea, got absorbed and the South Yuguria Empire was born, Juno can understand how an emperor cannot so easily leave .

It's actually abnormal at a time like this when a disturbance isn't occurring .

「I believe Your Majesty's intentions are genuine . Our country also wishes for peace . However I want you to be aware that there are many doubts still remaining between us . 」

Wilhelmina responds to Juno's tentative stance by leaning forward .

「Ara, and what might those doubts be?」

Juno gulps when those eyes of hers look up at him, but he was able to respond without his face or tone expressing it .

「Like your country believing our country and its citizens are villains, not to mention that I heard the idea was promoted by the government of Your Majesty . I can't trust that you desire a non-aggression treaty when you're planting the seed of hostility within the hearts of your people . 」

Libatis is also one of the nations neighboring the South Yuguria Empire so they are quite sensitive to changes in the state of affairs, especially with fruitful intelligence assessments .

Naturally they have gradually fortified defenses on the border after sensing the possibility of an invasion with their heightened antennae, picking up on theatrical plays or proclamations offensive to Libatis .

Wilhelmina drinks her tea while replying apologetically .

「Yes, those were my instructions . And I apologize for that . 」

「Eh?」

Juno couldn't help expressing his surprise .

He was expecting some sort of deception, not an honest confession and apology .

「Our nation is an empire born from the connection of two opposing countries―― the hearts of the citizens are unstable and an accidental impetus can cause the nation to split . An outside threat was necessary to create a sense of stability . 」

「And you used our country for that role?」

Wilhelmina nods .

「I couldn't find any other reasonable enemy . Malt is too weak and Goldonia is a mad dog which has already destroyed several countries…… plus they seem likely to invade for real if something upsets them . 」

「That is a rather unpleasant topic . . 」

Juno's mood clearly worsens .

Part of it was true, part of it was diplomatic acting .

「I am really sorry . But no actual harm has been done to your country . To my knowledge, not a single conflict has broken out on your borders and not a single person from Libatis has been executed on a false charge . As for damaging your honor―― I apologize for that now . 」

Wilhelmina bows deeply .

「Umumu…… true enough . 」

Radical and antagonistic speeches are being repeated, however the South Yuguria army has not actually crossed the borders .

「Everything is an act, a way to control the unknowing people of the country . Until the country has become stable, can I ask that you find some way to overlook it for a while?」

Wilhelmina continues before Juno could say anything .

「If a riot breaks out, I am chased off the seat of power and the Empire collapses―― the fanatics of Altair might spread their roots again . 」

Wilhelmina's eyes narrow in a split second when she says that .

「Guh……」

While Wilhelmina's actions may be unsettling for Libatis, they do not cause any harm .

Ever since the South Yuguria Empire was established, no soldier in the Libatis army has died in battle .

It's because her actions are unpleasant that pressure is being applied . If South Yuguria was destroyed, it is uncertain what kind of political power will emerge .

The chance of bloodshed for the other possibilities is pretty high .

「I understand . I will bring the proposal back and consider it with an open mind――」

Wilhelmina puts her hand over Juno's .

「That's not necessary, is it? You should be granted full authority over this matter . 」

Juno is astonished . On the other hand, Wilhelmina smiles .

「I hear the election in your country is nearing . To determine who will become the next president…… won't producing more results help your own cause?」

Wilhelmina presents a piece of paper .

「Under the premise of non-aggression, the South Yuguria Empire will ―― "immediately withdraw all troops near the border", "immediately dismantle forts on the border", and "create a demilitarized zone in South Yuguria" . Once that has been confirmed, Libatis will withdraw troops from the border―― is this for real?」

「Yes, you can proudly report these conditions to your president, right?」

Those prerequisites for a non-aggression treaty were perfect .

The withdrawal of troops will eliminate the danger of a surprise attack and the destruction of forts will signify the loss of supply points .

「But to actually execute this――」

「You may dispatch an observer . I will permit you to send someone to keep watch until our army has retreated and our fortresses have been demolished . 」

Juno was rendered speechless .

Looking at this from the opposite side, it can be taken that he had no more room to negotiate .

「……why would you concede so much?」

「Of course, it's for the sake of everlasting stability and peace for our country . 」

Wilhelmina grins .

On that day, a ten year long non-aggression treaty was signed between the Democratic Nation of Libatis and the South Yuguria Empire .

――on the carriage returning home .

「To establish a non-aggression treaty with someone you're attacking…… I'm losing confidence in myself to continue doing politics . 」

Zaphnes shrugs his shoulders .

「This is the best option . If there are ten or twenty countries around you, you would have to maintain good faith . However the only countries right now are in reality ours, Libatis and Goldonia . Malt is not worth taking, the vassal state Stura is on the brink of death, and Goldonia won't leave their borders…… something like trust is meaningless . 」

「What a frightening woman . Who would have thought to let the people choose when you created the country――」

Wilhelmina gives him an incredulous look .

「That was obviously for the plan geared toward Libatis . What are you saying at this point?」

「I knew politics wasn't my thing . 」

Zaphnes sighs and looks over at Whilhelmina who is smoothly working a brush .

「What are you writing―― aah, the proclamation for the non-aggression treaty…… for all that fanning you did, I'm sure there will be people who oppose this . I hope things go well . 」

Wilhelmina again gives him a dubious look .

「What's the point of immediately announcing the break of an agreement? This is――」

A paper was thrust at Zaphnes .

「A decree to start a war . What do you think as a soldier? Does it seem too awkward?」

The large muscular man's jaw dropped .

-Aegir POV-

――Some Time Later . Rafen .

「This is pretty tasty . It's too soft to eat with a fork though…… eei . 」

「Carla, it's vulgar to use your hands! Are you a barbarian!?」

「Ara ara……」

Mel giggles as Nonna scolds Carla .

「Hamuhamu…… uuu, hamuhamuhamu . 」

「Ruu has a small mouth so it's fine to go slow . If you push yourself, you'll choke . 」

Ruu looks over to her sister Kuu's plate and tries to eat as fast as her .

Sure enough, something gets caught in her throat, which she clears with a few gulps of water .

「This is the soup we made…… Melissa needs nutrients after giving birth, right?」

「We added lots of delicious ingredients so help yourself . 」

「Thank you . But I'm a little concerned with my belly fat~ just kidding . Ahaha . 」

Maria and Catherine cooked another dish outside of the normal breakfast menu .

The warm soup has a milk base and also contains plenty of vegetables and bread .

Despite worrying about excessive changes to her figure after childbirth, Melissa gladly eats the appetizing offering .

Speaking of special menus――

「Nmoh! Gumogumogumo! Hamu, hamuhamuhamu!!」

「Madam, you're eating too much!」

Claudia and Clara are eating at a separate table from the rest of us .

This isn't any kind of discrimination .

Claudia just needs to sit on a different chair because of her weight and use a different table because the amount of food she eats takes up too much space on our table .

「Ngohngoh!」

「Aah gosh, use a knife to cut up the ham . Don't swallow it whole!」

「What a glutton…… haha . 」

「So vulgar……」

「I'm losing my appetite just watching her . It's hard to believe she's a noble . 」

Mireille is still friendly, while Marta and Gretel who are well-versed in etiquette look away in disgust .

She eats politely in public settings…… but the amount she eats is the same .

「Carla-san, you're leaving out the spinach . 」

「You're going to push it to the edge to avoid it, aren't you! Finish all your food!」

「Oh, shut it……」

I guess she thought Nonna and the others didn't see .

「Wahahaha! We can't lose either!!」

「Vulgar and hearty are two different things . You must not copy her . 」

「Wah, don't swallow the bone with the meat . Spit it back out right now . 」

「……」

Irijina, Myla and Celia are also making a fuss .

Sekrit is the only one eating silently because she doesn't have anyone to talk to .

This scene isn't a common one for nobles during breakfast, however I feel a lot calmer when it's like this .

I always feel like I'm suffocating when the other nobles invite me to eat with them .

That's why I usually touch Celia and Marta's ass secretly as a distraction .

「Apologies for interrupting during your meal, but an urgent report has arrived from a spy . 」

The door swings open and Leopolt steps in .

Nonna and Gretel furrow their brows, but I urge him to go on .

「It's about South Yuguria and Libatis, right?」

Leopolt nods silently while everybody else focuses their attention on me .

Celia and the others who accompanied me to the south already knew about the matter, however it should be surprising news to the rest of the family and the servants .

Now is the time where I show them I'm a prudent man capable of reading into the future .

I remain calm and drink my tea, smiling sarcastically as I cross my legs .

「So the war has finally started―― I expected this to happen . 」

I am using the same gestures as the intellectual protagonist in Lilian's play .

「The feudal lord-sama isn't shaken at all . He really knew all along?」

「As expected of a great noble of his generation . 」

The maids gaze at me in adoration .

If I seduce them with intelligence, I can mount them right away .

「How large is the invasion, what is the state of war like? Libatis won't leave its borders defenseless . 」

I stand by the window sill and look outside with a cup of tea in my hand .

Lammy and Mirumi are doing some sort of exercises in the yard .

When I bend my body, I see Lammy has grown unexpectedly long .

Mirumi's children are scared and dive back into the pond .

「There's an advantage to being the attacker, although the Libatis army is powerful too . They've pushed a few kilometres in the border and then got locked in a stalemate―― am I wrong?」

I try being a little adventurous and offer a hypothetical situation .

If I'm right, I'll instantly appear like a genius general .

「That's our chief…… we can't compare to you . 」

Luna's eyes sparkle .

「Aegir-san is becoming cooler…… I have to grow up too……」

Yoguri's mouth hangs open .

「――I will now read it . 」

Leopolt speaks up .

「Libatis and South Yuguria has mutually agreed to a non-aggression treaty . 」

「……」

An awkward silence fills the dining hall .

The ones who looked at with eyes of respect turn away all of a sudden .

「The rest contains confidential information so I will report to you in the office . Please come as soon as you finish your meal . 」

Leopolt lowers his head slightly and then takes his leave .

「……what should I do?」

That was completely out of my expectations .

So I was wrong from the start .

I was trying to act cool and now I look like a total idiot .

「IWe will err…… tidy the plates and utensils . 」

「Err…… I shall bring in desserts . 」

Dammit Leopolt, if you said something earlier I wouldn't have done all that .

The maids ran away to the kitchen, Luna and Yoguri are looking elsewhere, and I can hear Sekrit trying stifle her laughter .

「D-don't worry . Aegir's selling point isn't his mind . You'll be fine if you train your muscles . 」

「L-let's leave the thinking to other people . If you want to use your head, I can teach you how to headbutt . 」

Carla and Nonna follow up in vain .

「……I'm going to the office . 」

I exit the dining hall with my shoulders slumped .

「Kukuku…… kukukuku……」

Sekrit, you're still laughing?

I'm going to eat your bread then .

――In the Office .

Celia and Myla walk with me to the office, where Leopolt and Tristan are waiting .

「Why a non-aggression pact? South Yuguria has said so much about Libatis being their enemy . Celia, you heard it too, right?」

「Yes, without a doubt . 」

I lean back in my chair .

You probably don't believe me .

「I've already confirmed something on that level . 」

Can't you just say you believe me?

That's not cute at all .

「The signing of this treaty is not a reasonable move . Even I did not anticipate this . 」

「Right!? It's totally outside anyone's expectations . 」

If Leopolt couldn't predict it, how could I predict it .

I feel a little weight off my chest .

「Aegir-sama……」

Celia looks at me sadly .

「Explain . Conjectures are fine . 」

Nothing can begin if we don't hear his opinions first .

If he's off-base, then I hope he embarrasses himself like I did earlier .

「「……」」

Leopolt and Celia look to the corner of the room .

Standing over there is Sekrit .

「Pay no attention to me . I'm this guy's meat toilet, except I'm in the corner of the room . 」

I'd be concerned if a toilet just happened to be in the corner, but I urge them to continue anyways .

The first to speak is Leopolt .

「I don't believe this is the correct move . South Yuguria wants to expand and their enemy can only be Libatis . They must cross a river if they wish to attack the city states, and there is little benefit to absorb Malt . If we consider the difference in national power, Goldonia is just a bad gamble for them . 」

It should be hard for them to cross the river right away .

They would need ships and leaving Libatis alone would make it hard for them to resupply .

「If they in fact don't want to expand, then there's no point in planting the seed of hostility towards Libatis in the citizens' hearts . Not only will they invite accidental clashes, there is also the fear of provoking an invasion from Libatis . 」

「Wilhelmina wants to expand . That much is certain . 」

Leopolt also seems to agree with me .

「I'm sure of it too . The conditions of the non-aggression treaty are already being fulfilled . The South Yuguria army has started to move away from the border zone and the forts are being taken down under the watch of Libatis . This is undoubtable information . 」

I don't know how negotiations were done but if both conditions are being satisfied, Libatis has to believe the treaty is real .

Tristan also chimes in .

「Not to mention it is rumored that the contents of the peace negotiations are known by the Libatis citizens . That means the country can't say no . 」

Why? If something is suspicious, you should decline .

「For that country, the people choose the government, right? The new threat in South Yuguria wants a non-aggression treaty…… not only that, they made the border unprotected first…… so how can Libatis reject . As a citizen of Libatis, you would want fewer enemies and you would rather use money on yourself rather than on military . 」

Tristan takes a breath before continuing .

「More importantly, Libatis is nearing the election for the next president―― in other words, they will be choosing their supreme leader . If they don't comply with the non-aggression pact, the rival candidate can attack by saying how funds are being spent needlessly on military or the president is a warmonger . 」

Fumu, a conclusion has yet to be drawn .

「So what should we do? Is South Yuguria going to be a peaceful empire and allow everybody to live happily ever after?」

「That is unlikely . This move is a form of deception to lure people into a false sense of security . It's a non-aggression pact for the sake of an invasion . 」

「We can't tell what it is at this moment, but they have a trump card and are targeting Libatis with it . That is unmistakable . 」

Agree to peace so they can invade?

I don't get it .

「It's a superb move . Even if Libatis thinks that person is suspicious, they still prioritize the election over everything . This is the perfect timing to aim for . 」

「They dismantled the supply points though . Without those, large scale operations involving the crossing of the border won't be possible . Troops can be hidden, bases cannot . They should have a trump card in terms of military strategy . 」

「An Empire-style army formation and skilled active commanders…… no, having a well-regulated army doesn't really change the marching speed much and the importance of resupply remains the same . If I had more detailed information on the branches within the army and the number of squads, I could make some predictions . 」

「South Yuguria's counterintelligence network is rapidly being strengthened . It's hard just to find out the exact numbers let alone the composition details . The only thing we can examine is what they don't intend to hide . 」

The conversation between Leopolt and Tristan becomes slightly complicated .

My role seems to be over too .

Sekrit comes over and gently rubs my shoulder .

「Let me put this simply . When there is someone you want to kill no matter what――」

Sekrit pulls the knife at my waist and gets into a low stance .

「This woman!」

Celia responds quickly by drawing her own knife and staring Sekrit down .

「There will be lots of resistance even from just looking at each other like this」

Sekrit drops the knife and raises both hands .

The tension in the air seems to disperse a bit .

「I'll hold her down!」

「First lower their guard, and then――」

The moment Celia approaches the unarmed Sekrit, Sekrit pulls out a knife hidden on her thigh and points it at Celia's throat .

Celia relaxed after seeing the blade fall to the floor and couldn't deal with Sekrit's speed .

「Killing this way is much easier, no?」

Sekrit releases Celia for real this time .

I see, now I understand .

「Uuuu…… she tricked me . How frustrating! It's so frustrating!」

Celia pounds the floor feeling mortified after the demonstration . Meanwhile Sekrit leaves the room laughing .

「I'll accept the punishment for this . You can do it yourself . I don't mind if you torture me . 」

Sekrit leaves those final words as she disappears . What a real problem child she is .

I thought she opened up to Celia after travelling together, but it's all wasted .

「In any case, don't slack in the preparations . We should get ready for war . 」

「I guess…… it's now way harder to persuade the kingdom though . 」

Tristan is right .

I have been contacting Erich to advise the kingdom to fortify the defense to the south, however I haven't been getting a favorable response .

The King is unmotivated and Erich said that he can't mobilize the royal army without any real threat .

Pleading the case that South Yuguria is a threat just got more difficult with the signing of the non-aggression treaty .

「How troublesome . 」

Let me play with the depressed Celia to distract myself .
