Chapter 130

The recipient was the Grand Duke of Berg and the source was the Duke of Polvas.

Seria quickly flipped through the papers and was immediately surprised.

‘It’s quite comparable to Duke Howard. But this is normal.’

The Metis flower was also located in the third line of the first chapter. The other things were only as good as the Metis flower.

Maybe the matter of agreeing to take back the land of Polvas to get the Metis flower on purpose…. ‘That’s not true, is it? I think that’s a bit much.’ But the rest of the list was a bit eye-opening.

“Lesche, you should have chosen something other than Metis Flowers. This one, this one, or maybe this one would be better?”

Lesche snatched the compensation list from Seria’s hands and tossed it lightly to one corner of the desk.

“I’m glad I didn’t show it to you.” (Lesche)

“…Do I look like a corpse in your eyes?” (Seria)

Instead of replying, Lesche lightly picked Seria up and sat her down at the desk. Their gazes roughly met. Lesche’s red eyes, bathed in the glow of the office’s lights, shone from multiple angles.

“I want to show you how my heart was scorched every time you couldn’t get up.”

“…Is that why you chose the Metis flower for me?”

“Yes. Seria.”

Lesche took Seria’s hand and raised it to his chest. She could feel his heart beating beneath his clothes. Her fingertips tickled and she felt like she was rubbing his heart deeply. Lesche lowered his head towards Seria…Seria closed her eyes spontaneously.

Seria finally pushed away Lesche’s lips, which kept chasing hers, and she let out a light breath. Lesche’s hands grabbed her wrists.

Seria looked into Lesche’s eyes and whispered.

“…You said you brought Metis flowers because you were worried about my health…” (Seria)

At the same time, Seria swept Lesche’s thigh with her knee. She could feel the raw strength in Lesche’s hands as he gripped her wrists.

“Are you really worried?” (Seria)

“I won’t do it if you don’t want me to.” (Lesche)

“Are you sure?” (Seria)

Seria smiled mischievously.

“This wasn’t your purpose, was it?” (Seria)

It was only for a moment. As soon as Seria thought that Lesche’s eyes were suddenly cloudy, he kissed her without warning. A firm hand wrapped tightly around her back, trapping her in his chest. Instantly, her breathing chest went up and down significantly. Heat rose in her face. It was hard to breathe with their attached lips. Her hands on Lesche’s shoulders reflexively tightened.

“Ha…”

Lesche’s hand stroked Seria’s thighs and then climbed upward. His eyes stare at her. The way they did when he took off the gloves they Kalis gave her.

“If you were a little healthier, you wouldn’t be able to get out of bed.” (Lesche)

His voice was low and seductive. Lesche bit her ear and released it. The wet sound sent shivers down her spine. She could no longer tease him when she stroked his hardened member. Lesche was already paying no attention to that.

He pulled down the ribbon on her dress. Lesche bit her soft mounds inside. Seria was a little worried that he could hear her heartbeat against her chest. She tried to unbutton Lesche, but he grabbed her hand. He kissed the inside of her wrist.

***

It was later that night.

Seria slumped against Lesche’s chest and blinked slowly.

‘Tomorrow my back is going to be sore.’

Lesche was doing all sorts of things to her, like holding her hair and putting it down, sweeping her hair across her forehead. His reaction was in stark contrast to hers, where she felt like she was going to pass out and all she could do was open her eyes.

After all, it must have been for this purpose that Lesche chose and accepted Metis Flowers from Polvas’s list of rewards. He wanted to get Seria’s strength up somehow, and then devoured her.

The more these conspiracy theories emerged, the more Lesche wouldn’t let her go. Seria swallowed a groan as she realized that she would have to change the fabric on the couch in her office.

That was when it happened. Lesche’s hand slowly stroked her cheek. His fingertips touched the rims of her eyes, her eyelashes, and then her lips again. And his other hand was touching her shoulder. Seria grabbed Lesche’s hand because all of these little actions were disturbing her.

“Please stop.”

Lesche dug in between her fingers and held them tight.

“I’m just touching your face a bit.” (Lesche)

“What… do you know I’m numb below my waist?” (Seria)

Lesche couldn’t answer. Because his mouth was already covered by her hand. She covered his mouth, obviously knowing that he would reply in a way that would make her ears turn red. Seria let out a long breath and glanced down.

“…….”

Every time Lesche touched her, his manhood  got bigger and bigger…. She liked Lesche’s body. It was nice to sleep in a firm, wide arms away from the aesthetic point of view and feel safe. But now she felt uncomfortable looking at his huge hardened member below…

‘Will I ever see this man exhausted, even once, before he dies?’

‘…No, he won’t. I’m bound to die first.’

Seria said, blocking Lesche’s mouth.

“Please go to bed. You have to go to the Imperial Palace tomorrow, don’t you?”

Lesche stared into Seria’s eyes without answering. Seria tilted her head and asked once more.

“You are going to sleep, right?”

Laughter permeated Lesche’s eyes. At the same time, she could feel his lips moving under her palm. Lesche pressed his lips hard on her palm that was covering his lips. His hot lips licked lightly at her fingers and bit down on them.

“I’m not tired yet. Seria.”

At the same time, his hands went to her thighs. Suddenly, he lifted her hips up and sat her on his arms. Seria’s wobbling body was firmly supported by Lesche. She stared at him in panic as she sat upright in an instant.

“……?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Their chests touched each other. His tongue penetrated into Seria’s mouth and kissed her deeply.

***

The next day.

‘My back hurts.’

‘So this is what a subtle stiffness feels like. It’s a good thing I don’t have any outside activities today.’

When Seria woke up, Lesche had already gone to the imperial palace.

“Should I add more hot water?”

“No, it’s okay.”

Seria opened the heavy door and entered. Silence instantly enveloped her ears.

This was a formal prayer room in Berg’s mansion.

It was a place of great power, comparable to a temple. She always found the stained glass of the Great Temple beautiful, and she wanted the interior of this prayer room with the Stern insignia to resemble the Great Temple.

She wondered if she could recreate a perfection similar to the translucent stained glass of the Great Temple in a short time ….

“A lot of money can make almost anything happen.”

Linon was right. Money was power.

The colorful sunshine streamed in along the beautifully decorated stained glass windows.

Deep inside this prayer room was where Stern’s insignia was kept. The storage box was inaccessible to all. It was made by the holy constellation that she had ordered at an exorbitant price. Thanks to this, no one could touch the insignia.

Her hands were able to pass through the constellation. A fist-sized picture was drawn on the insignia along with the number “3.”

Amazingly, it had been drawn in real time. What’s more, it had been drawn all week. The speed was so slow that the drawing was already in the final stages of turning people around.

Seria folded her arms, wondering what kind of painting Tuban was trying to draw and show her for more than a week, and after a while, she opened my eyes wide.

‘Do you want me to bring this to you?’

***

A Town Street with a dense cluster of high-end townhouses in the capital.

Even from there, the green-haired woman returned to a building with walls built of clean, white marble, like a temple.

“Is that Lady Seria Stern?”

“Careful what you say. She’s the Grand Duchess of Berg now.”

“That’s right. Didn’t you hear that? Why, at the Berg territory….”

“I haven’t been here for a while, what’s going on?”

The ladies who had gathered to watch the opera together blinked their eyes in surprise. Unconcerned, the Grand Duchess of Berg monument, accompanied by her knight, walked into the townhouse.

‘Everyone is glancing at me.’

For Seria, the gazes of the others didn’t matter much right now. This townhouse was where she used to live before she went to Berg territory. It had been a really long time since she had been here.

“Stern?”

The young apprentice priest hurriedly hurriedly bowed. There were no fixed servants in this townhouse, and several of these older apprentice priests took turns taking care of Seria’s convenience. The thing about these apprentice priests was that they are young and innocent. When she told them to go out for three hours, the apprentice priests said, “Yes,” and hurriedly left the townhouse.

“Shall I close the door?”

“Yes, Bibi.”

Abigail steadily locked the door. Seria closed the window and headed for the bedroom. The bedroom was still the same, only neatly cleaned and organized.

Seria sat down on her knees in front of the bed and reached under it. She poked around the inside of the wooden frame and pulled out the three keys that were hidden inside the corners. After lightly wiping the dust off with a handkerchief, she went to the patronage. There was a large oak tree planted in the center of the rear garden, and she dug hard just below the center of the townhouse with a seedling shovel that she brought in advance.

As she dug it up, Seria criticized herself.

‘I buried it too far inside.’

After digging for about 10 minutes, she heard the sound of the seedling shovel touching something metallic with a clank. She shouted with joy in her heart and hurriedly dug out the content inside the soil.

Buried under the soil was a steel box. After putting back the soil, she hurried back to the bedroom with the box. She selected the smallest of the three keys and inserted it into the lock of the box.

The box opened with the sound of seams fitting together. She unraveled the bundle of silk inside and rummaged through it, and what came out was none other than the Blue Diamond.

It was the blue diamond that the past Seria had won in a competition with Queen Ezekiel.

“It’s beautiful.”

Seria murmured, staring carefully at the blue diamond. After waking up as Seria in the novel, she couldn’t believe the fact that something this big was a real gem, and by extension, a diamond. I’d left it hidden like this because she was afraid she would lose it on the trip to Berg.

“By the way, why does Tuban want me to bring this?”

The picture on Stern’s insignia was this blue diamond. She knew it immediately when she saw the picture, as she was the one who looked at the blue diamond every day.

“Bibi, let’s go now.”

Seria took the box of the blue  diamond and went back to Berg’s imperial mansion. She walked quickly to the prayer room and towards the Holy Golden Insignia.

“Now… What do you want me to do? Should I put it on the insignia?”

Seria tilted her chin and placed the blue diamond on top of the constellation box containing the insignia where the picture was drawn.

“…….”

Seria blinked.

“……!”

Startled, Seria opened my eyes wide. The blue diamond began to be sucked into the constellation gold box as if it were being absorbed.

The diamond flew out of Seria’s hand reflexively. Seria grasped the blue diamond, which had been absorbed about a tenth into the insignia. The hand holding the diamond was full of strength.

“Tuban? Are you taking this? Are you crazy? Do you know how much it costs? It’s a treasure that I had to sell my island to pay for it.”

But the blue diamond, absorbed by the constellation gold, did not rise again.

Maybe it was the composition, but it seemed like Tuban was also holding the blue diamond tightly.

It was only for a moment, but Seria felt the desire to just use the circlet and go to the world of Tuban.

She wanted to go there and hit him…

The hand that held the diamond trembled. Seria let out a short scream and eventually let go.

“You take this then I’ll see what amazing secrets you can reveal.”

When push came to shove, the first ornament of the Berg garden would be Tuban. (Threaten lol)

Grinding her teeth as hard as she could, Seria watched as the blue diamond was completely absorbed by the constellation gold insignia. Tears of blood came to her eyes. Now she felt like she wanted to tear off Tuban’s hair.

The number three on the insignia slowly turned into a two, and a completely unexpected letter appeared on the constellation gold insignia.
