Chapter 587: The Hero Climaxes in Defeat Again Today[R-18] (74)
“You and Riabel have your uses. If you agree to work for me, I’ll treat you far better than you are now.”
As a meaningful smile spread across my face, Duke Baran’s eyes narrowed coldly.
“Better treatment… Do you really think I’d fall for such words? I am a sword of the Sievern Kingdom, and a noble.”
“Oh? So honor and country come before family.”
In that moment, Duke Baran’s gaze wavered. But his lips remained firmly shut, offering no reply.
I deliberately thrust my hips, lifting Riabel high.
Squelch! Squelch!
“Hyaah♡ Hnghaaa♡”
“Listen well, Duke. Right now, in this very moment, while you choose your country and your honor, your precious daughter is finding her bliss.”
Duke Baran bit his lip. But as he watched Riabel moan and fall into the throes of orgasm before his very eyes, his resolve began to crumble.
“Kuh… Riabel…”
I smiled leisurely and continued my taunts.
“Honor, country, and family. In the end, you’ll lose them all. But you still have a chance to choose.”
Duke Baran closed his eyes for a moment, then shook his head resolutely.
“I… have no intention of listening to a monster like you. I’m sure Riabel will understand.”
“Hehe, what a stubborn son-in-law.”
“…Son-in-law?”
“Isn’t that right? You seemed to be having a grand time with my daughters.”
At that, the Duke’s expression hardened.
“That was…”
My smile turned even more vicious.
“Or should I call you father-in-law?”
“You bastard… Are you trying to mock me?”
“Mock you? On the contrary, I’m saying this because I’m impressed by your strength and talent. And if you truly don’t want it, I’ll at least leave the name of the Sievern Kingdom intact. I’ll even allow the royal bloodline to continue.”
The Duke’s eyes wavered. But he soon gritted his teeth and muttered.
“…What meaning would that have?”
“Hmm, it seems that wasn’t the answer you wanted either.”
“You seem to want to persuade me… but it’s all pointless.”
He was more resolute than I expected.
Honestly, I thought I was giving him pretty good treatment, for a man.
‘Hmm, if I’m going to take on all the nations of the continent and the demons, I can never have too much military power...’
He was a veteran who had already been through countless wars and real battles, a man who would be an excellent commander or instructor. If properly utilized, he would be a valuable asset to my forces.
‘If voluntary loyalty is out of the question… well, it can’t be helped.’
Just as I resolved to use Duke Baran as nothing more than a stud, he quietly spoke.
“If… I fight for you… can you promise not to touch the Sievern Kingdom…?”
I chuckled and shook my head.
“That’ll be difficult. Sievern is my first target.”
Duke Baran closed his eyes, seemingly lost in deep thought. Then he muttered under his breath.
“…So Sievern is doomed to fall after all.”
“Hehe, you seem to think the kingdom can stop me.”
He answered with silence.
“As I said before, I can leave the kingdom itself. However, my children will be the ones sitting on its throne.”
The Duke’s gaze flickered. After a long silence, he finally spoke.
“…If I fight for you, can you guarantee my daughter’s safety and the continuation of the kingdom’s lineage?”
“Yes.”
At my firm answer, Duke Baran sank heavily to his knees.
“Raphael Baran. I pledge my loyalty to my new master.”
I smiled languidly and reached out, pressing a hand down on his head.
“Good, Raphael Baran. I accept your loyalty.”
Inwardly, however, I couldn’t hide my scorn.
‘It’s so obvious. He’ll undoubtedly watch for an opportunity to stab me in the back. But well… as long as he pretends to be loyal for now, he’s useful enough to me.’

Having barely made it back to the royal castle, Ariella felt like she was going insane for days.
‘Hngh…♡ I think I’m losing my mind...’
The space between her thighs was hot and itching. The studs on her chastity belt relentlessly teased her pussy and asshole. It did nothing to satisfy her lust. Instead, it only made her recall the orc’s cock, stirring an even deeper thirst.
Screech.
With a faint metallic scrape, a stud twitched and poked her vaginal flesh. In that instant, the memory of the monstrous penis that had ravaged her womb came flooding back.
‘No…! I can’t accept this. Dammit, Ariella… you can’t lose!’
Her limbs trembling, she gritted her teeth and managed to cross the palace corridor into the grand banquet hall. Queen Bellatrix and Crown Prince Lucian were there.
Ariella immediately dropped to her knees.
“Your Majesty… and Brother…!”
Her voice trembled. Even as a tingling pleasure coursed through her stomach, she had to cry out her duty as a knight and a princess.
“We m-must immediately get support from the Holy Kingdom… and eliminate the orc horde… ahn♡”
Queen Bellatrix frowned, looking down at her daughter.
“Ariella… your face is flushed and your voice sounds strange. Did something happen?”
“N-No, nothing!”
Ariella quickly shook her head. But even as the lie escaped her lips, a stud on the chastity belt twitched, grazing her clitoris hard.
“Heek…! Kkhh…”
“How strange… What happened?”
“It’s just… I’m exhausted! That’s right, I’m just tired!”
As she spoke, her fingers dug into the fabric over her knees. She desperately squeezed her thighs together to stop the flow of her vaginal fluid.
“More importantly… Your Majesty…! We must rescue Duke Baran and the people captured by the monsters. If we’re even a day late, they…!”
Just then, Crown Prince Lucian spoke.
“Don’t worry, Ariella. The Holy Kingdom has already made its move. Hero Aaren’s party, Sir Laet who was a companion of the previous Hero, and Hero Marienne have all arrived to help us. What’s more, a newly awakened Hero, Sabrina, daughter of the Beast King, has come with them.”
“S-Sabrina…?”
Ariella repeated the name, momentarily dazed. The next in line to the beastfolk throne, her heroic deeds against the Berseran Empire since childhood were famous.
At that moment, a soldier’s shout echoed from outside the hall.
“The Hero’s party requests an audience!”
Queen Bellatrix commanded in an unwavering voice.
“Show them in at once.”
The heavy doors slowly swung open, and a grand aura flowed into the hall. Seven figures appeared one by one.
At the head was Marienne, clad in brilliant pure-white armor. Behind her, Aaren and his companions, Hilla and Rien, walked with confident strides. Laet, dressed in a gray uniform, followed, his calm eyes surveying the hall.
A female warrior with sharp wolf ears entered. As her red tail swayed gently, her golden eyes scanned her surroundings.
‘That woman… is Sabrina…!’
In that instant, Sabrina’s gaze locked onto her. Her golden eyes seemed to pierce right through Ariella. Her wolf ears twitched several times, and then Sabrina sniffed the air. Her face contorted in disgust as she recoiled, as if she had seen rotten meat.
“…Tsk, what a pervert bitch.”
The low mutter was clearly aimed at Ariella.
Even Marienne and Aaren turned to look at Sabrina with curiosity, but she said no more. She just flicked her tail slightly and moved away.
Ariella’s heart pounded in her chest. In the suffocating tension, she had a gut feeling.
‘Could it be… No, it can’t be...?’
“Ariella, why the sudden change in your expression?” Crown Prince Lucian asked cautiously, but Ariella just shook her head.
“It’s nothing.”
Sabrina remained in her spot with a cold, expressionless face, but her eyes were filled with disgust and contempt.
A shiver ran down Ariella’s spine.
‘No… If this gets out, I’m finished. Absolutely not…!’
While she struggled to suppress her trembling, Queen Bellatrix, Riette, and Marienne were leading the conversation.
“Five hundred Holy Knights and twenty high-ranking priests from the Holy Kingdom will be joining us. And with myself and Sir Laet, both Sword Masters, plus Sabrina, we should have more than enough power to defeat the orcs.”
“Excellent. The Sievern Kingdom will spare no expense in supporting you. Please do not hesitate to ask for anything you need.”
Sabrina took a step forward.
“I heard there was a survivor from the battle with the orcs. I’d like to hear the details from them.”
“If you mean… Princess Ariella, right behind me, is that survivor.”
Bellatrix nodded, gesturing toward Ariella. Sabrina frowned.
“…That woman is the survivor?”
“Yes. Is there a problem?”
“No.”
Sabrina answered curtly and immediately pointed a finger at Ariella.
“You, with the silver hair. Tell me the details about the orcs.”
“O-Of course.”
Ariella barely managed to steady her trembling voice and began to explain the battle situation she had experienced. She detailed the number of orcs and the existence of the monster leading them, but she thoroughly concealed the shameful parts. But as Sabrina’s gaze kept brushing past the space between her thighs, her body couldn’t help but flinch.

While I was preparing a welcoming ceremony after hearing from Bi-yeon that the heroes had arrived, a completely unexpected guest appeared.
“So, Luxiar. What brings you all the way here?”
The one who slowly entered the room was one of the Seven Deadly Sins, Luxiar of Lust. Her hair, like black silk, flowed down to her waist, and the lips beneath, curved in a subtle smile, were provocatively shaped.
“Oh my~ A man who rushes things is so unattractive.”
“Cut the crap and tell me why you’re here.”
“Such an unattractive man~ But, well… I don’t mind that either.”
Luxiar sat down in the chair opposite me as if it were a matter of course. As if the seat belonged to her, she nonchalantly crossed her legs and met my gaze.
“My reason for coming is simple~. I heard some lunatic was impersonating the Demon King’s army, so I came to see for myself.”
I smiled coldly and raised my hand.
“Keep spouting nonsense and I’ll blow your head off.”
Luxiar covered her lips with the back of her hand and let out a giggle.
“My, how cruel~. But it’s the truth, isn’t it? You’re slaughtering humans in our name, but you’re not actually a demon.”
She leaned back deep into her chair. As her white fingers fidgeted, a soft magical energy shimmered from the tips of her black nails.
“So I came because I was curious.”
I let out a short laugh and tilted my head back.
“So, has your curiosity been satisfied?”
Luxiar covered her lips with the back of her hand and chuckled.
“No, now I’m even more confused. You reek of both the former Demon King and a human… It’s giving me a headache~ What in the world are you?”
“I have no intention of telling a slut.”
“Gah, a slut? Isn’t it terribly rude to say such a thing to a lady?”
“Don’t make me laugh. More importantly, since you’ve appeared before me so fearlessly, I’ll grant you death.”
I gathered energy in my hand. The air in the room instantly grew heavy and distorted, and cracks spread across the floor. Luxiar’s face twisted in an instant.
“W-Wait a minute! You’re joking, right? …Eek, i-is that divine power?! If you hit me with that, I’ll be annihilated!?”
My smile vanished as I took a step closer.
“If you knew that, you should have stated your real purpose from the beginning. You might have lived.”
Luxiar waved her hands frantically and scrambled backward.
“Wait! Wait! I’ll talk! I’ll really talk, so let’s just calm down a little, okay? Huh?”
Keeping the power focused in my hand, I gave a slight nod.
“Fine. Let’s hear it.”
Luxiar licked her lips and said.
“Can I betray the Demon King and surrender to you?”
