Cecilia was sitting on her bed in her room, taking a rest. So far, it was no different from usual.

Except for the fact that a slight thrill was on her face, and she was shivering.

The reason why Cecilia was like this was simple. By now, Knight Commander Iris would have arrived at Delta with the imperial edict.

The imperial edict arriving meant that Delta would read it, and him reading it meant that what Cecilia had been imagining would actually happen.

She imagined Delta holding the letter in his hand and reading it. Just imagining that simple action made a strange, chilling feeling well up in her lower abdomen. She gripped the bed with her hand.

Cecilia’s shoulders twitched from the dizzying sensation that was spreading through her body. It felt like her vision was turning white.

“…….”

Cecilia, with a face that was a mixture of thrill and arrogance, closer to a female animal than a woman, let out a heated breath. Warm air escaped her mouth along with a sigh.

Even she thought it was a lewd action. That thought crossed her slightly dazed mind.

Cecilia wasn’t a woman who was ignorant about sex. So, she knew very well that the feeling she was currently experiencing was pleasure.

The Empress of the Aeternum Empire was shivering and feeling mental pleasure just by recalling the actions she had committed. It was something she couldn’t even imagine.

For example, gently stroking her soaked underwear and using the sticky honey on her fingers to hold the pen. Deliberately sealing the letter between her thighs.

All of them were actions that she would definitely be scolded for if anyone found out.

At first, it had been an action she had committed because she couldn’t control her excitement after hearing that Delta had kept his promise to her when they parted ways, but now, the tables had completely turned.

“Kuh…”

Her body shivered again when she realized what she had done. A sticky liquid seeped even deeper into her already damp underwear.

Just from those actions, the proof of pleasure that only a woman could produce had been released once again. Despite the fact that she hadn’t touched herself directly.

She knew that she was doing something absurd. But she couldn’t stop thinking about it.

Now that she knew the pleasure of committing a transgression that she absolutely couldn’t be caught doing, and the thrill that came with it, it was impossible for her to stop now.

Cecilia knew that better than anyone.

Because light and color had reappeared in Cecilia’s world, which had only been filled with dullness ever since she had become Empress and killed all of her siblings with her own hands.

Just like a traveler crossing a desert couldn’t leave an oasis, Cecilia couldn’t return to that dull world.

“……It has come to this again.”

Cecilia slowly, very slowly, brought her right hand between her legs. She slightly bent her middle finger and gently stroked her black underwear that was made of the finest silk.

A sticky, transparent liquid faintly coated the tip of her finger. If it was this much just from slightly touching it, she could imagine what the inside was like.

She wiped her sticky finger on the bed and closed her eyes. And then, she imagined her scent seeping into that man’s nostrils.

—Shiver!

Cecilia’s body shivered once again.

The finest black silk, which had reached its absorption limit, released the sticky liquid onto the bed.

◇◇◇◆◇◇◇

The beginning was normal. It didn’t seem to be a letter that only had a single line that said ‘go to the Holy Kingdom’ like last time. I continued reading.

‘……?’

And I was done reading.

‘What is this?’

I scanned it from the beginning again, wondering if I had missed something, but no matter how many times I checked, those four sentences were all there was. The size of the letter felt meaningless.

Cecilia was still Cecilia.

‘At least it’s not complicated to read— huh?’

Suddenly, a faint scent brushed past the tip of my nose. I stopped. It was a scent that absolutely shouldn’t be here, so I wondered if I had smelled it wrong.

But it was too faint to be certain, and too distinct to ignore. I glanced at Iris and carefully created a breeze in front of my nose.

A faint peach scent drifted along with the breeze.

‘…….’

I wanted to dismiss it as just a fruity scent that had drifted from somewhere, but the memory of the first time I had smelled this scent was too strong.

It was the scent I had smelled while my head was buried between Cecilia’s smooth thighs, looking at her soaked black lingerie.

It was natural for the memory of that time to come to mind as soon as I smelled the peach scent since it had been such a shocking event.

Who would have imagined that Cecilia would do that to me?

I tried to remain calm and opened my mouth.

“Iris, did you by any chance smell a fruity scent while bringing the imperial edict?”

“A fruity scent? What kind of fruit?”

“Uh… like… for example, a peach.”

“Peach? I don’t know. Why are you suddenly asking?”

Iris tilted her head. She seemed genuinely confused.

“……It’s nothing. I misspoke.”

I quietly rolled up the imperial edict.

I decided to just assume that I had smelled it wrong. Yes, I must have imagined smelling a peach scent because I wanted to eat fruit so badly.

It didn’t make sense for a letter sent by the Empress to have a fruity scent. She couldn’t have possibly rubbed the letter against her lower body. It was a ridiculous delusion.

“There wasn’t much in it this time either. You still remember, right, Iris? Before going to the Holy Kingdom, Her Majesty the Empress sent us a letter.”

I subtly changed the subject. I didn’t want to think about that topic any further.

“I remember. It only had a single line that said to go to the Holy Kingdom.”

Iris, after saying that, nodded as if she understood the situation.

“It seems like it’s similar this time as well.”

“That’s right. She said I did a good job defeating the demon. She said she’ll give me a reward.”

Iris nodded, saying it was an imperial edict worthy of Her Majesty the Empress.

I looked at the imperial edict that I had rolled up and tied with a string again with slightly uneasy eyes, and then put it in my pocket.

I ignored the sweet scent that brushed past the tip of my nose.

“Do you have anything else to do afterwards, Delta?”

At Iris’s question, I shook my head slightly.

“I do, but they can be postponed. Why?”

“There’s one more order from Her Majesty. I want to ask if you can help.”

“I should definitely help if it’s something I can do. What do I need to do?”

“Her Majesty the Empress said to check the demon’s corpse directly.”

“……The demon’s corpse?”

“That’s right. She said she wanted to know more precisely what kind of demon Behemoth was. Of course, only if the corpse remained and it was safe. She said to just return if the corpse had already been purified or if it was dangerous to even look at the dead demon.”

“Uh… the corpse is still there. But I don’t know if it’s dangerous to look at it. As far as I know, it should be fine?”

It was true that a demon polluted the surroundings just by being alive, but I hadn’t heard of a setting where looking at a corpse would harm someone.

If anything, I could ask the battle nuns.

“Then I’ll ask you a favor. Is that possible?”

“I’ll go and ask. I don’t know either.”

“Okay.”

Iris quietly followed behind me.

We talked about trivial things about each other as we headed towards the building where Behemoth’s corpse was being kept.

Even though the surroundings had been thoroughly purified, you couldn’t keep a demon’s corpse near the city, so it was located quite far away.

“It’s over there. The white building.”

I pointed at the white building that was surrounded by a Divine Barrier. It was completely white as if it had been taken directly from the Holy Kingdom. Ten battle nuns were guarding the surroundings.

The reason why they had even built a separate building to store the corpse was to find out the identity of the power I had used.

They hadn’t demolished it yet because the investigation wasn’t completely over.

Stella and Selene had said that they would purify the corpse if I didn’t want them to keep it, but I also wanted to know the identity of that power, so I had let them continue their research.

“Welcome, distinguished guest. What brings you here?”

As I approached the building, the battle nuns all bowed in greeting. I was glad that they didn’t kneel on the ground like they had done when we had first arrived here.

They had done that at first, but I was shocked and stopped them.

“I was wondering if I could see Behemoth’s corpse directly.”

“Behemoth’s corpse…?”

“That’s right. Oh, and I’m asking just in case, but nothing strange happens if you look at a demon’s corpse, right?”

“Yes, nothing like that has ever happened… but who is the person next to you?”

“She’s a knight who came from the Imperial Palace to deliver a message to me. The Empress said to check the demon’s corpse directly. She said she was curious about what it looked like.”

“The Empress of the Empire, then the one with the holy sword… yes, I understand. Please enter.”

The battle nun readily let us in.

Now that I thought about it, the conversation had been based on the premise that I could enter from the beginning. She hadn’t even asked why we were entering.

A part of the Divine Barrier was lifted, and Iris and I entered. As soon as I opened the door, I saw the interior that was sculpted like a temple.

Behemoth’s corpse was placed between statues that symbolized the sun and moon. A thick veil was covering its face.

The bloated pig-like body was still the same.

While I was frowning at the sight, Iris, who had stopped right in front of the corpse, carefully lifted the veil.

The white cloth was lifted, and the demon’s face was revealed.

The ugly face was still the same.

It had a goat-like head, sharp fangs protruding from its half-open lips, and its vertical pupils were glaring straight ahead.

Iris carefully observed the corpse. Unlike me, she didn’t even bat an eye. Her gaze was very meticulous, as if she was trying to convey every single detail of its appearance.

“……Ugh?!”

Then, the moment she looked at its face, she suddenly let out a faint scream and took a step back.

I was startled and quickly covered it with the veil again.

Iris, who had stumbled back, bowed her head and took deep breaths.

“Are you okay, Iris? What happened?”

“…….”

There was no reply.

Iris was trembling, her arms wrapped around her chest, each hand gripping the opposite upper arm. She was clearly in a strange state.

Sensing that something wasn’t right, I placed my hand on Iris’s shoulder, intending to support her.

“Iris—”

“Hiya?!”

I was the one who was even more surprised by her intense reaction. I removed my hand with bewildered eyes.

Silence fell.

What was that sound just now? Did I hear it wrong?

“…….”

While my mind was in a state of confusion, Iris, who had been hugging herself and taking deep breaths, slowly raised her head towards me.

“Iris, are you… alright?”

Iris, with dazed eyes and her mouth half-open, had her cheeks flushed bright red.
