After a Steamy Morning Sex Session, an Outing with Mother-in-Law Changes the Fate of the Mohican Tribe.♥
“Sucking my cock first thing in the morning? What the hell are you trying to do, Athena!”
Thrust! Thrust! Slurp! Suck! Thrust! Thrust! Thrust!
The newlywed tent of Geum Taeyang was filled with lively energy from the very start of the morning.
“Haaah! Hngh! Haaaang! I was just going to suck a little and then go do the laundry—haaah! Hngh! You’re the one who started it…! Hnnngh!”
Bounce! Bounce! Shake! Shake! Bounce!
“Shaking your ass like that and still saying such things!”
Smack!♥ Smack!♥
Geum Taeyang woke earlier than usual, disturbed by an unusual sensation in his lower body. When he looked down, he found Athena sucking on his erect cock. There was only one thing to do. Without hesitation, he flipped her over and drove his shaft straight into her pussy. That was simply how barbarians did things.
“I’m cumming!”
Gurgle—! Spurt! Splurt! Splurt!♥
“Me too~!”
Splurt! Splurt! Spurt!♥
Truly, a perfectly matched barbarian couple. They reached a messy, simultaneous climax.
“Really? You’re taking me along today too?”
After finishing their passionate morning sex, Athena had already transformed back into a proper, tidy young wife. She was diligently helping her husband Geum Taeyang get ready for the day when he told her to prepare to go out with him. Her eyes widened in surprise.
She then heard the rest: Geum Taeyang said he would finally show her what he had found in the Cargo Forest. It was a promise he had made earlier, and today was the day.
“Yeah. I figured it was time. But you’re that happy about it?”
“Of course! I hate it when you keep secrets from me! We can’t even have our usual sweet bickering anymore!”
“True. Back when we were kids, if I ever seemed like I was hiding something, you’d pester me relentlessly.”
When he casually mentioned taking her to a secret location, Athena beamed with innocent delight, and Geum Taeyang felt a slight surprise. She had begged him a few times before, but had accepted his “later” without complaint. Considering that, her current reaction was far more enthusiastic than expected.
Still, it made sense. Athena had always needed to share everything with Geum Taeyang to feel satisfied. Now that they were married, barbarian household customs dictated that a wife not interfere in her husband’s affairs unless asked, so Athena had endured it patiently. Being freed from that restraint made her this happy.
“You’re taking me too?”
But the person Geum Taeyang planned to bring to his destination today was not just Athena. It was also Athena’s mother, his mother-in-law and the Great Mother of the Gaia Tribe, Sophia Barbara.
Sophia, who had been sorting herbs related to the beginning of summer, widened her eyes when Geum Taeyang asked her to accompany them for the day.
“Yes. There are plenty of herbs there. Athena and I will look around the spot I found, while you collect herbs, Great Mother. On the way back, we can each carry a few full baskets of herbs.”
“Aha~! So the destination is near the neutral zone?”
“That’s right, Great Mother. As expected, you figured it out right away.”
“Very well. I was planning to gather people and go together since it’s not a place I should visit alone, but traveling with you two should be no problem at all.”
The area within a certain radius beyond the village was considered tribal territory. However, because Galatea’s land was vast, the boundaries were not tightly defined, and they were also uncertain. As a result, women and children were generally advised to avoid the border regions. The place where Geum Taeyang had found what he wanted lay dangerously close to that boundary.
“Do you two remember? When you were little, this mother searched all the way out here looking for you?”
“Of course we remember. It was the biggest scolding we ever got from you, Great Mother. I still remember the angry look on your face. It was the first time I’d ever seen it.”
“I got spanked by Mom for the first time back then. My butt probably got bigger because of that.”
“Hohoho! I understand, dear. Truthfully, I scolded you even more harshly to calm my own startled heart.”
And so the three of them set off toward their destination. As expected of the milf mother Sophia, who lived on memories, the familiar scenery brought back recollections of her beloved children from their younger days.
The adventurous Athena had often dragged Geum Taeyang all the way to the border area when they were little. Each time, Geum Taeyang would warn her not to go because the Great Mother would scold them, but Athena’s stubbornness was impossible to overcome. Whenever the children failed to return from bathing in the Cargo Lake by a certain time, Sophia would realize they had gone to the forbidden border zone again and go looking for them.
“I remember that too. The story you used to tell us about how an ancient civilization’s city once stood here, Great Mother.”
“Yes, that’s right. In ancient times, Galatea was the center of the continent. It was so long ago that almost no ruins remain, but this region is one of the few that still has traces.”
Athena had not been dragging Geum Taeyang around aimlessly. This area was not only beautiful in scenery and rich with herbs, but also full of things to do.
“Then this mother will go gather herbs. Let’s meet back here at the agreed time, children?”
“Yes, Great Mother. We’ll do that.”
“Mom, if any dangerous beasts show up, scream right away~”
After setting a time at the fork in the road marked by a conspicuous large tree, the three parted ways.
“Huh? Here? This is the place where we got scolded by Mom after coming to play! The ancient civilization ruins you mentioned earlier.”
Athena, who had followed Geum Taeyang with an expectant expression, now wore a somewhat deflated look. The place where Geum Taeyang had stopped was a location she already knew well. It was the shabby ruins of an ancient civilization where the two of them had often played as children. She had assumed he had discovered something completely unexpected, so her reaction was understandable.
“That’s right, here. About ten days ago, I found something truly incredible here.”
“Really? I was here just a few months ago while hunting, and nothing had changed at all.”
Geum Taeyang confirmed it with a calm expression as he gazed at the ruins, which only made Athena tilt her head further in confusion.
“Where~! There’s nothing else here~! It’s just an empty lot~!”
Athena had expected Geum Taeyang to head inside the collapsed ancient building. Instead, he walked toward the side of the building, to what was essentially an empty clearing.
“There’s nothing here at all. The real reason this building existed lies right here. Just wait and see.”
“Umm… I really don’t see anything… Just grass… and a few small trees…”
Standing confidently in the middle of the clearing, Geum Taeyang looked so self-assured that Athena’s questioning voice carried a note of caution. She knew that if she accused him of talking nonsense and something actually appeared, he would never let her live it down.
“Elhazard Valume Heodor Mundra.”
Geum Taeyang then recited an incomprehensible ancient phrase. In an instant, a cloaking effect dissolved with a shimmering sound, and another ancient building materialized before them. A large door was embedded in its front—a gate building, without a doubt.
“What is this???? Magic, is this magic???”
Thud! Athena reflexively dropped into a combat stance. Her expression, however, was one of pure shock. This was clearly a building imbued with magic of a considerably high level.
“Yeah. It’s magic. Ancient magic, to be precise. The ancient words I recited are a spell that both dispels and restores the cloaking on this building.”
It was not ordinary magic, but ancient magic.
“It seems the ancient nation we knew as Elhazard was the real name. And this city was essentially built to manage this building.”
Geum Taeyang’s explanation flowed smoothly, like that of a professional guide, now that he had unlocked the ancient magic.
‘No matter how many times I see it, [Monopolizing Fortuitous Encounters] is seriously overpowered, damn.’
Behind it all was his cheat trait [Monopolizing Fortuitous Encounters]. As the top alchemy student at the Imperial Academy, Geum Taeyang had used materials provided by Sophia to create a special device. He then used it to search for an anomalous energy. Honestly, he had no real basis for it, but he had been certain he would find what he wanted. He had felt it. Why? Because another cheat trait, [Fortuitous Encounters], had activated.
And just as expected, he found it. The place where the energy felt strongest had been nothing but an empty lot. But the moment he positioned himself correctly, the incantation [Elhazard Valume Heodor Mundra] surfaced in his mind. This was a fortuitous location—a so-called sanctuary—and his [Monopolizing Fortuitous Encounters] trait had reacted accordingly.
“I can open this massive door too. Elhazard Valume Heodor Mundra.”
Once the building was fully revealed, Geum Taeyang recited the same spell again.
Rumble rumble rumble…!!
The large, heavy stone door on the front of the building slowly opened.
“Let’s go in, Athena.”
“C-Can we really go in?”
“Yeah. I’ve already been inside a few times.”
“Th-Then I’ll…”
Geum Taeyang walked into the stone doorway without hesitation. Intimidated by the building’s imposing presence, Athena hesitated for a moment before following her husband with small, timid steps.
“Whoa…!! There are magic stone lamps in a place like this??”
“That’s right, magic stone lamps.”
“Didn’t you say this was an ancient building?”
“They used magic stone lamps even in ancient times.”
The moment both Geum Taeyang and Athena stepped inside, a staircase leading underground came into view. As soon as they stepped on the top of the stairs, rows of magic stone lamps lit up like a runway.
“How on earth did you find this? How did you know the ancient nation was called Elhazard? And more than anything, that strange incantation! It’s even weirder that you know it!”
Questions poured out from behind Geum Taeyang as he led the way down the stairs. Even though keeping quiet about her husband’s affairs was a virtue for barbarian women, she could no longer hold back. There were too many things she could not understand or accept.
“Elhazard was an ancient nation that had highly advanced alchemy. That’s why it was occasionally mentioned in my major textbooks. The materials were so scarce that it wasn’t treated as important, but I personally took an interest and studied it throughout my time at the Academy.”
Geum Taeyang smoothly spun his tale. There was no way simply studying would have produced the secret incantation [Elhazard Valume Heodor Mundra]. Yet it was not entirely a lie either. Elhazard had indeed been an ancient nation that dominated the continent through alchemy. It was also true that it was occasionally mentioned in the Imperial Academy’s alchemy textbooks. [Monopolizing Fortuitous Encounters] never dropped completely disconnected information. When there was even a slight connection, it amplified it. Thanks to that, Geum Taeyang had received not only Elhazard’s ancient incantations but also its detailed history through the trait.
“I see… You must have studied really hard.”
Athena had no choice but to believe him.
“Then what kind of place was this? Looking at the stairs going underground, was it a warehouse? A place to store food and such?”
Squeeze…!
Her husband was so intellectual. Being intellectual was undoubtedly one form of strength. Therefore, the barbarian female Athena, who was drawn to strong males, naturally moved to Geum Taeyang’s side and linked her arm with his. She was stamping her own seal, declaring that this man was hers.
“It’s not a warehouse. It’s closer to a mine. Athena, you went to a mine with the Great Mother when we were kids, right? It’s not exactly the same, but similar.”
“Oh, I remember! The Galatea coal we use in winter comes from mines!”
Geum Taeyang’s intellectual demeanor greatly boosted Athena’s feminine pride. When they were young, the two of them had traveled to various Mohican tribes hand-in-hand with Great Mother Sophia. It was part of Sophia’s educational philosophy that they needed to know their own people thoroughly. Among the tribes they visited was one that had a mine, so Athena could easily understand Geum Taeyang’s explanation.
“What did such an advanced ancient nation mine here? It doesn’t feel like a Galatea coal mine like you said.”
Now that she had more detailed information, Athena shook off some of her wariness and began looking around curiously. The interior looked like some kind of temple ritual chamber. That was why Athena, whose most advanced mental image of a place was a metal warehouse, had assumed it was a storage facility.
“If we go a little further, you’ll immediately understand why this mine was built. It’s very obvious.”
Geum Taeyang’s response was that seeing it directly was better than any explanation. And indeed—
“Whoa!!! It feels like we’ve come to a completely different world!! There’s a night sky underground!!”
Upon reaching the underground plaza, Athena could not help but exclaim in awe as she looked at the walls and ceiling. Mysterious ores sparkled as they reflected the light of the magic stone lamps. Anyone could tell that these were the true stars of this mine.
“Are those gems? They’re so beautiful??”
The ores emitted such a powerful glow that Athena’s first thought was that they were gems.
“They’re not gems. Once refined, they’re as beautiful as gems. And they possess value far beyond that.”
Having discovered this place, Geum Taeyang knew the true identity of these ores.
“They’re called Morion raw ore. They have an immense affinity with alchemy magic, general magic, and even healing magic.”
The mysterious ore Morion—not only far surpassed the current highest-grade magic stones, but its appearance would revolutionize alchemy magic and cause a massive upheaval across the continent of Pangea. This was the official first chapter of the strategic simulation [World Conquest Chronicles]. And Geum Taeyang had been the first to discover this special magic stone, Morion.
‘And the first sacrifice of that upheaval will be the Mohican tribe.’
With the discovery of this Morion, the Mohican tribe would meet its downfall.
