It was a hot kiss.
A kiss that is light and tickled like a bird rubbing its beak. She just wanted to kiss him. That's why she did it. That was all for Charlize.
It's soft. The tongue sticks out. Dylan's breath was hot and wet. It heats up as easily as a damp blanket.
"…"
Charlize removed his lips and caressed Dylan's eyes with her fingertips.
His skin was soft. Dylan looked at Charlize.
"Please close your eyes, Your Majesty."
"…"
Dylan's eyes flickered slightly, but only for a moment. Dylan always followed Charlize. At least in her gaze.
The blue eye was covered with eyelids and disappeared.
Charlize looked at Dylan's face with his eyes closed. In fact, whatever Dylan looked like, Charlize would have liked him.
It must be hard to trust Dylan while he was already handsome, but suddenly a thought occurred to her.
Now even if he isn't a tyrant, she will love him. Even if she no longer wants to destroy the imperial family, she will love him.
At first, it was just unfamiliar, but before she knew it, her love had grown so deep.
"…I like you, Your Majesty."
After being stressed out, she had no choice but to speak.
Before she heard Dylan's answer, she kissed him again. Sitting in a chair, she lifted his chin to make it easier for Charlize to kiss him.
He is always caring. Constantly.
Dylan's hand slipped through the back of Charlize's hair. The kiss deepened. The struggling breaths were mixed, and the warmth grew even hotter.
"More, please …It's not enough."
As he pulled his gaze away, Dylan slowly opened his eyes and said. The man's blurred eyes were strangely fine.
He was a man who had been corrupted and blackened by Charlize. He was a tyrant of the Empire, who had risen and been damaged.
Only for Charlize. By Charlize.
"I'd like to talk to you for a while."
Charlize said kindly and withdrew for the moment.
She could see Dylan, who had the excitement of lukewarmness, forcing himself to suppress his burning heart.
It was not intentional, but it was Dylan who was always drawn to the indifferent Charlize.
The emperor answered.
"…As you wish."
Charlize turned her gaze away and picked up the drink on the table. Originally, people don't get distracted by drinking alcohol before they start sexual intercourse.
'But it's okay to have a different experience once in a while.'
Charlize tilted her head slightly and poured the drink into the empty glass.
It was transparent but viscous.
It was because it was a joint drink that a couple who officially married drank to forget the pain of the first night.
Dylan held his breath.
The person concerned may not know how alluring the seemingly drowsy appearance is.
"Master."
"Yes?"
"I want to be with you for the rest of my life at the Imperial Palace."
Dylan confessed plainly.
It is an indirect expression of wanting her to be an empress.
But Charlize opened her eyes a little wide, and there was no significant response. Charlize simply grabbed the cup of the wine that had been poured and brought it to her mouth.
He wants to kiss her.
His thirst was not quenched by a soft and subtle kiss from Charlize.
"Are you disappointed that I stayed in a mansion outside the Imperial Palace?"
"…"
Are you pretending not to know this time too?
Dylan smiled strangely and lowered his gaze. He thought that if he faced Charlize directly, he felt like he was going to put her on this table right away because of his uncontrollable possessiveness. Why do they have to have sex only on the bed?
They're in the bedroom with no one in it anyway.
But he looked up again, erasing his dangerous thoughts. He followed Charlize, grabbed his cup, and put it in his mouth.
He drank his cup of wine.
The wine is sweet.
But he knows that Charlize's lips are sweeter.
"I can wait."
"Sometimes… I think I like to see His Majesty's impatient face."
She said impulsively to Dylan with such an indifferent face.
Charlize's eyes turned dryly towards Dylan. Perhaps it was as detailed as observing.
"I sometimes can't get used to the fact that I can push someone this far."
"Are you sure it's sometimes?"
"Maybe often."
Seeing Charlize grinning bashfully, strength came into his hand as he held the cup of wine.
As if she knew what Dylan was thinking. As if she knew that there was a compulsive possessive desire behind that gentle and refreshing smile.
Charlize was the only one who could shake Dylan this far and dye him. The only woman who can reassemble his world.
He's already crazy so she doesn't have to fold her eyes so seductively.
"…I'd like to do it."
"For how long?"
"To the extent that I wish I were a beast. Only Master is left in my head, so no worries or thoughts can invade me."
He didn't give up even half of his mind. If she run away for fear of him, he doesn't think he can handle it this time.
But Charlize smiled freshly, even though he had revealed only a part of it.
Charlize put down her drink while looking at Dylan. The sky of the Imperial Palace, which was still spread behind Charlize, was red.
Perfectly.
"Hug me."
"…Do you mind if I do it roughly?"
He didn't have much confidence to control himself today. Charlize thought for a moment and then nodded her head.
Dylan put down his drink slowly. And feeling Charlize's gaze, he pulled his tie, which was deeply sinful.
Dylan unbuttoned a couple of buttons over his shirt and walked over to Charlize. Before they kissed deeply, the Emperor whispered.
"You're over-stimulating, Charlize."
The dark blooms brightly. The sky collapsed completely.
***
Shadow is away.
So Dylan, feeling the presence, opened his eyes in the dark.
The emperor who unified the empire will have gained tens of thousands of enemies through war. More people were seeking Dylan's life than grains of sand on the white sand.
He kissed the forehead of his lover, who held him in his arms. He took off the blanket and stood up. That's not a big deal, Dylan could've handled it himself.
'Sleep sweetly.'
The emperor went out with his sword.
It took five minutes to find the assassins who were trying to approach him in the hallway of the Imperial Palace and kill them all.
Dylan's face, which cut off the assassin's head without hesitation, was drowsy in the moonlight.
The servant, who was walking around the night, was startled and hardened and paid attention to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, are you all right?"
Dylan with a sword turned his head to look at the servant. His entire body stiffened at the moment of oppression he felt.
Blood was splattered on his face, which seemed completely unsuitable for murder. Blood begins to seep into the emperor's uniform. The servant felt he was suffocating.
Unlike the emperor in the servant's head, killing is just perfect for Dylan in real life.
"I have to go back to my Master, so bring me new clothes."
"I, I receive a dignified order."
Even with the emperor's bored face, the servant felt an instinctive fear. The servant suddenly bowed his head.
The emperor's gaze reached the door of his bedroom where Charlize was sleeping. It was a brief moment, but an aura resembling the warm wind of spring permeated the blue room. A change in which the coolness disappears in an instant.
It was the warmth that was allowed only for Charlize.
***
Payne was in group 1.
The most advantageous group in the process of tracking the base was because it was the same group as Lucy, the owner of the information guild.
Lucy was the most active in commenting on track. Naturally, group 1 was the group with the most achievements.
"Recently, rumors are circulating that there are fewer people in the village of lepers."
After a few days of intense pursuit, they managed to clear quite a few options.
Lucy said with her eyes shining.
"The village of lepers…"
It was a place where they avoided the gaze of pursuit even when they searched through the empire.
It was inevitable because it was a place where no one could live.
"Maybe there is a base of a secret magic tower there."
"That's a convincing hypothesis."
Payne agreed.
The common people are reluctant to approach villages where lepers live.
Perhaps the best place to avoid eye contact.
The secret magic tower, which follows evil gods, was indeed a place to stay in disguise, so the first group headed straight for the village.
While stepping into the leper village, none of the Shadow Knights or Rapine Warriors who belonged to Group 1 were afraid.
Rarely, a few patients with bandages all over their bodies were seen, but very few. Most of the time, startled by the intrusion of a stranger, they went into the house or hid by draping the curtains of the windows.
"Search."
The Shadow Knights belonging to Group 1 were the first to move. It is to find traces of strongholds that may be hidden throughout the village.
Rapine's warriors joined the chase later.
The village resembling the ruins was as quiet as a dead mouse. On the other hand, Lucy, who had been with Payne for a long time, quickly noticed and paid attention to him.
"Did you feel something? You look pale."
"Uh… But."
Payne frowned and answered.
"There's quite a chill and unpleasant energy going on. The evil…"
Payne inadvertently shortened his speech.
Since it was an evil that Charlize had personally released and experienced the other day, he recognized it immediately in front of even the smallest traces.
At Payne's words, Lucy's mood became serious in an instant.
Payne slowly memorized a magic spell. The usual playful atmosphere was not found, but it was a serious attitude.
"Orhakra me vrata."
At the wizard's spell, the clouds in the sky began to move slowly.
And there.
A magnificent building floating in the sky slowly revealed itself. Payne's expression turned cold.
Lucy's mouth opened slowly.
"That's…"
"Obviously."
It was the pattern of the magic tower that will never be forgotten.
Lucy muttered from the side as if exhausted.
"It's not like a tower, it's like a temple, isn't it?"
Lucy was right.
That was a building that should be called the Temple of the Evil God. The only difference was that it was a black pillar, not a white or light pink pillar, like the temple of Ehyrit.
Anyway, at first glance, it gave off the feeling of worshiping a god. Perhaps there was a very powerful secret spell on it, the clouds that had been moved away by Payne's magic returned to their original position again.
It was only a quick glance, but the temple was very high. It seemed that they needed the help of a magical beast that could fly in order to reach the temple.
However, as the Rapine clan, who tamed beasts, followed Charlize, so there would be no problem.
Whik!
Payne and Lucy turned their heads to the strong and short sound of the flute. It's a secret sound that Shadow makes.
Soon after, Payne and Lucy ran.
"It's a clue."
"I think it's near the base of the secret magic tower. There's a mark here."
Lucy replied to Shadow's report.
"This is the right place. There was a temple high in the sky. The pattern of the tower was engraved."
Finally, the enemy's clue was caught. Shadow was noticeably colder.
Payne looked down at the clue that Shadow had discovered first. It was written in the ancient code that wizards usually use.
It took a little time to interpret it.
"I will report to His Majesty and the grandmaster. They will surely know how to decipher the code."
V said the clue.
Payne opened his mouth.
"Wait a minute."
Payne's eyes darkened.
"Give me a little time."
Because he can figure it out right now.
Payne's voice broke coldly.
