Reader’S Regeneration Life [EN]: Chapter 45

“Are you saying that instead of canceling the operation… we should move the time forward?”

Sion nodded, affirming Helen’s question.

Immediately, not only Helen but also Lucia, who was sitting behind her, were taken aback.

Hadn’t Sion just outlined the operation himself?

What that operation entailed, what they were trying to accomplish.

It was an act of breaching the walls that firmly guarded the royal palace, albeit only a section of them.

They were contemplating something no one had dared to attempt until now.

The nobleman of Hispania wasn’t stopping it; he was encouraging it!

“S, Sir Sion?

That’s…”

“The best course is to do the right thing.

The second best is to do the wrong thing.

And the worst is to do nothing.”

Sion Klausen spoke with a resolute voice.

Lucia, overwhelmed by the atmosphere, stammered, unable to complete her sentence.

“Lucia.

I am trying to choose the best, or at least the second best.

If we don’t deal with Kashgar County now, it will cause greater chaos in the kingdom later.

A person with a duplicitous nature [someone who appears one way but is secretly different] can be a good enemy, but not a good vassal or a good friend.

If you ask if I have evidence, I will say that the fairy woman sitting in front of me is the evidence.”

If Sion was asked if he was recklessly trying to replace Kashgar just to establish contact with Helen, he could confidently answer, ‘That’s not it.’

In the novel’s timeline, when the royal family collapsed, Kashgar County swiftly changed its allegiance and attempted to survive the Celestials’ [powerful, possibly divine beings] purification operation by betraying other nobles who were resisting their offensive.

Of course, what followed was a devastating firestorm, and everyone involved was consumed and disappeared.

‘A predicted traitor must be exposed and eliminated completely.

You have to ensure they have a solid backing so they don’t get scared, no matter what kind of crazy things they do in front of you.’

The Celestials’ large-scale attack is now only about a year away.

Before that, fanatics who unconditionally follow them will already be stirring up all kinds of rifts and conflicts throughout the continent, spouting nonsense about purifying the continent.

To be honest, it didn’t really matter if Hispania collapsed, but if that happened, the Klausen Frontier would naturally be in danger, so Sion expanded the scope of the fence to Hispania for the time being.

“In the first place, I can’t trust the royal palace completely.

Because there is a traitor inside.”

Helen was even more surprised than Lucia at those words.

The internal accomplice was being kept secret at the highest level of security, but how did he find out about it and say it in front of her!

‘It was a lie.

It was all a lie.

Rumors that he was trash, a brat, a rascal.

It was all a lie!

A man who humbled himself over and over again for this very moment!’

Merchants like herself are very sensitive to rumors and information in the world.

Even rumors that are dismissed as nonsense often have underlying reasons if you look closely, and information has tremendous value that can save lives.

In that sense, the rumors about the man Sion Klausen came out based on relatively accurate information.

Even after becoming an adult, he has not been officially named as the successor, does not have the support of his vassals, has not made any special achievements, and is staying out of the world in his father’s territory.

It was clear proof that he had no strengths and only weaknesses.

‘But all of that was that man’s scheme.’

Helen swallowed nervously.

She had been hiding herself and suppressing all emotions for more than five years to avenge her enemy.

And today, she was about to take the first step to strike at Kashgar.

“It would be a great discourtesy to the royal family if the royal palace was damaged.

But His Majesty the King will overlook it if he knows the whole story of this matter.

If you can eliminate a threat to the kingdom with a part of the wall, it’s a very cheap price to pay.”

Saying that with a confident tone, Lucia had no choice but to back down.

Since she also had affection for him, it was a fight she could not win in the first place.

‘Lucia’s opposition was naturally expected.’

Kim Yoo-hyun has no feelings for the country of Hispania, Lilit is unconditionally on his side, and Rishiki was just a knight of Nudia who became his subordinate, so even if it was the entire royal palace, not just the royal palace wall, there would be no rejection.

On the other hand, Lucia is a woman whose father was Raido, who lived as a court mage while being a citizen of the Kingdom of Hispania.

Of course, she would be surprised by Sion’s stance, who was not preventing the royal palace, which could be said to be the heart of the kingdom, from being attacked soon, but rather using it.

Nevertheless, Sion decided to accept that part.

From the moment he decided to keep the character Lucia by his side rather than Kim Yoo-hyun’s, she had to be his own person, not a person of the kingdom.

“I hope you understand me, Lucia.”

Fortunately, he had the talent of eloquence, and the body of Sion Klausen had a face that would make any woman look back at least once.

When he looked at Lucia with a serious expression and said those words, she hesitated and eventually nodded slightly.

‘Yes!

Love is more important than patriotism.

Isn’t this a formula that applies to men and women of all ages, regardless of nationality or world?’

Now it was as if he had persuaded everyone gathered in this place.

All that was left was to carry out the ‘operation’ properly.

―

“Aaaah!”

The sound of a woman’s moans, filled with pleasure and pain, echoed throughout the room.

At first glance, it sounded like they were in the middle of a passionate encounter, but in reality, only one woman was lying on the bed.

Her white and beautiful legs were trembling, her hands were tightly gripping the blanket as if in agony.

Her eyelids were fluttering.

Her whole body was filled with pain, and she barely opened her mouth with a face covered in sweat.

“P, please… Haaah!

P, please stop…!”

A constant stream of fluids was flowing from between the woman’s legs, which were spread wide open without mercy.

And beyond that, a strange object was deeply embedded in the opening.

Shhh!

Shhh!

Perhaps because of the object that wriggled and burrowed deeper inside like a living creature, accompanied by strange sounds, the mysterious woman bit her lip until it bled and said again.

“Take it out, take it out.

I, I feel like I’m going to die.

Haaah… I, I’m going to die.

I’m going to die…!

Aaaah!”

“Ah, you can’t die.

Of course not.

How much did I pay for you? It would be a waste if you just went and died like this.”

Thud.

The man’s hand grabbed the object that was burrowing into the woman and pulled it out halfway.

Perhaps because he didn’t pull it out gently, but very roughly.

The woman gasped and breathed heavily as if she was about to die, then arched her back and began to tremble.

“Take it out, take it out, take it out…”

“I was amazed at first that this cost as much as 10 gold coins.

How could a single wooden stick from the land of the beastmen be so expensive?

But I didn’t know it would be like this!

A method where a liquid that heats up a woman’s body comes out, and at the same time, if you receive the water that the woman sheds, it swells up in an instant and fills the inside.

The merchants say it’s a tool of punishment for the beastmen, but I never knew it would be such a satisfying torture device.

Kuhahaha!”

Swoosh!

“Aaaah!”

The man, as if teasing the woman, hooked the end of the wooden stick on the opening and gently turned it, then roughly shoved it back inside.

“G, go!

I’m going to go!

I think I’m going to go!

Aaaah!

Aaaah!”

“Who said you could?”

The woman’s body tensed right before climax.

But the man pulled out the wooden stick as if he wouldn’t even allow that.

Thanks to that, a sense of emptiness that suddenly became empty permeated the woman’s body, and she became even more exhausted.

“Haaah… haaah….

W, when will it end?

Please stop, stooop….”

“Seeing that you still have the energy to speak, I guess I can do it a few more times?”

The man chuckled and put the stick back into the opening.

Then, he started moving his hand and gently scraping the woman’s flesh.

It would have been better if a fire had risen once and burned fiercely before going out.

But he kept putting in firewood and didn’t let it burn properly, so it was truly a terrible experience for the woman.

“Aaaah!

Waaaaah!

P, please let me go.

Let me go!”

“You want to go?

Huh?

Do you want to go?”

“Haaah!

Let me go!

Leeeet meeeee goooo!

Aaaah!

Let me gooooo!”

But the man’s hand stopped again, and soon he pulled out the wooden stick again.

Thanks to that, the woman, who had stopped right before climax again, breathed heavily and passed out.

“Tsk.

I guess three hours was the limit this time.”

Three hours, a man who had been teasing, molesting, and tormenting a woman’s body for a full three hours.

He didn’t let her reach climax even once during that long time, and only left embers, so any woman couldn’t bear it with a sane mind.

“I would have tormented you more if it weren’t for.”

He had to start preparing to enter the royal palace.

The man wiped his hands and face, which were wet with the woman’s fluids, changed his clothes, and left the room.

“Lord.

Preparations for departure are complete.”

The Kashgar County’s butler and knights bowed their heads with a polite expression.

A great nobleman of Hispania, but a man who never promoted himself and always had a smiling face and did not treat his subordinates carelessly.

That was Sefer Kashgar, as they knew him.

“Okay.

We should leave soon.

Thank you for your hard work today.”

“Not at all, Lord Count!”

The knights reacted as if it was an honor just for him to speak to them.

Despite being a count, he doesn’t spend extravagantly or get caught up in unnecessary authority.

A benevolent lord to the territory’s people, a nobleman who does not treat commoners carelessly.

A lord who treats his knights well, a count who trusts and cares for his vassals.

The trust that Count Sefer Kashgar had in them was absolute.

“Shall we get going?”

Sefer, who got into the carriage, wore a very benevolent smile.

The butler and knights drove the carriage towards the royal palace with the word to depart.

They didn’t know, but the reason Sefer showed such a benevolent smile was elsewhere.

‘The woman I bought this time has a soft body and a good voice, so I really like her.

It’s fun to torment her.

The woman called my wife tries to run away if I do anything even slightly stimulating, so it’s no fun.

Ah, it’s so enjoyable to leave the castle under the pretext of a party and torment that woman.’

There are still a few days left until the royal party.

Sefer’s groin was throbbing as he thought of the woman who had been secretly taken out of the castle, lying in the room with her limbs tied, breathing heavily and waiting for him.

“Whoa, whoa, whoa!”

Suddenly the carriage stopped, and there was a slight commotion.

Wondering what was going on, Sefer opened the window and called a knight.

“Hey.

What’s going on?

Why did you stop so suddenly?”

“Ah, Lord.

Someone jumped in front of the carriage, so we almost had an accident.”

“Oh, dear, oh, dear.

You should have been more careful.

Everyone is from this country of Hispania, so you shouldn’t treat them carelessly.”

“Yes.

I will tell the coachman to be careful.”

“Don’t scold him too much.”

He was about to close the window after saying that in a very benevolent voice.

“I told you to be careful.”

“I’m sorry, L… Lord.

I was distracted for a moment.”

“I know everything is different here than in Nudia.

There’s no need to rush, you can take your time to look around.”

It was a voice he had heard somewhere.

Sefer opened the window again and looked around.

The person who almost collided with the carriage, and another person who was playfully scolding someone.

Both of them were wearing hoods, so it was impossible to clearly distinguish who they were, but Sefer had definitely heard that voice before.

Yes, it was at the royal party.

“Sir Sion Klausen?”

“Hmm?”

The person wearing the hood turned around at Sefer’s words.

And Sefer, who confirmed the face inside, exclaimed Ah! and hurriedly opened the carriage door.

“It really is Sir Sion Klausen.

What are you doing here?”

“Lord Sefer Kashgar.

Are you on your way to the royal palace?”

“Yes.

But where are you going in that outfit?”

“I’m also heading to the royal palace.

But I’m just walking instead of taking a carriage.

The guy who just became my escort knight is visiting the royal castle for the first time, so I was showing him around.”

“I see.

Well, it must be quite difficult for the people of the Klausen Frontier to come to the royal castle because they bear such heavy responsibilities.”

“I don’t know when I’ll be back.”

When Sion Klausen, who said that, slightly bowed his head as if to see him at the royal palace, Sefer hurriedly opened his mouth.

“Sir.

Would you like to come with me?

Sightseeing is good, but it’s getting late, and above all, I’m a little worried because the royal castle is noisy.”

“Is it really okay?

I’m worried that I might bother you.”

“How could that be?

Rather, it’s an honor to have the war hero Sion in my carriage.”

Sefer gave a good-natured smile.

At that, Sion stroked his chin as if contemplating for a moment, then nodded as if he understood.

“I will accept that favor without refusing.”

“Haha!

Thank you.

What are you all doing!

Don’t treat the war hero properly!”

The person who was thought to be an ordinary citizen was actually a war hero who made a great contribution in the recent war with Nudia.

The knights tried to hide their surprised hearts and guided Sion into the carriage.

“I will lend a horse to your escort knight separately.”

“Thank you for your kindness, Lord.”

A war hero, a genius handsome young man from the Klausen family who was completely different from the rumors, a man who might soon take a central place in the aristocratic world.

Sefer smiled inwardly.

He was going to arrange a meeting as soon as possible to buy Sion Klausen’s favor or find a weakness, but he ran into him like this.

‘He’s just entered the aristocratic world, so I have to win this man’s heart at times like this.

That way, I’ll have more cards to use later.’

Thinking that, Sefer let out a genuine smile of satisfaction.

If he went to the royal palace in this state and showed a close relationship even at the party, he could boast his bond with this man to other nobles, so he couldn’t help but be happy.

So, could he have even imagined.

That he had walked right into the devil’s trap.
