Chapter 630: A Surprise Unit

“So was I really hearing things?”

After circling around and finding that there truly wasn’t anything abnormal, Ariel finally gave up and genuinely prepared to leave...

“Mm...”

Suddenly, Celicia’s body pitched forward, as if she were enduring some kind of pain. Her willow brows knit, and she hurriedly covered her small mouth with her hand, but caught off guard, she still couldn’t stop that sweet sound from slipping out.

“Hm?”

Ariel jumped in fright at once and hurriedly asked with concern,

“Celicia, y-you... what’s wrong?”

“I-I’m fine.”

Celicia lifted a hand, stopping Ariel from coming any closer. After drawing a deep breath, she said,

“It’s just that the aura inside my body is a little unstable.”

She shot a glance under the desk.

That bastard... not only was he refusing to give up, he even dared to push his luck and launch another attack. His nerve was getting bigger and bigger!

“Unstable aura... just unstable aura?”

Ariel thought to herself that she really hadn’t misheard, but she also couldn’t believe that kind of cute sound had come from Celicia’s mouth.

She watched Celicia worriedly and found that the redness on her cheeks seemed to have spread quite a bit more. And this wasn’t just “aura.” Even her qi and blood were a little chaotic.

“Do you need me to help you—”

“No, no need to worry. Hah... it’s not as serious as you think.”

Celicia subconsciously wanted to clamp her full, long thighs together, but Muen was already inside there. What could she do now? If anything, it just added another layer of fun for him. His hands clung to the inside of her thighs, stroking gently while savoring the thrill of going deep alone, exploring into the depths.

But if she loosened up directly, then it would truly be throwing the gates wide open and letting him charge straight through.

“You should also know that on the night the Inner Council rebelled, in order to kill the evil god’s remnants they created, I used the power of the empire and forcibly entered the Crowned One realm.”

Celicia explained with a straight face.

“This is merely the aftereffect of that time.”

“The Crowned One realm...”

Ariel rubbed her chin. “I’ve heard. People are calling you the youngest Crowned One in history now. But I didn’t expect there’d be such serious aftereffects—after so long, they still haven’t disappeared?”

“The Crowned One realm isn’t that easy to enter. Having some aftereffects is normal. But ‘serious’ is too much. Mm~”

Celicia’s neck tipped back a little again, as if her surging qi and blood had struck once more. She lightly bit down on her silver teeth and said,

“As you can see, it’s just some agitation of qi and blood.”

“Really?”

“You think I’m lying to you?”

“N-No... I’m just worried about you, Cel—Your Majesty.”

“No need to worry. I’m not fragile to that extent.”

After a wave of stimulation from skin contact ebbed, Celicia’s peripheral vision flicked under the desk again.

Even through her clothes, she felt like she could see Muen’s smugness at this moment. He was taking advantage of her inability to resist, growing bolder and bolder as he toyed with sensitive places.

He even...

Tsk—

She heard the sound of thin fabric being torn bit by bit. It was the black pantyhose she’d worn today—not specially for him—and from within that mysterious garden, a warm breeze seemed to blow.

That bastard... he really dares...

A flash of anger passed through Celicia’s eyes. She didn’t let Muen do as he pleased. She shifted her posture slightly, straightening her long legs. Her jade foot, wrapped in black, slid out of her high heel and reached toward a certain part of Muen.

So you like playing this kind of thing, do you? Then let’s see who gives in first.

“Hiss—”

The next moment, an extremely low, suppressed inhale slipped into Celicia’s ears.

Muen, who had been focusing on conquest, suddenly felt his central army get ambushed. His mind wavered in instant panic, and he found it hard to hold himself together.

—Last time had been in drunkenness, but right now, Celicia’s movements clearly carried no small amount of experience. Every tiny motion precisely struck Muen’s weakness and vital points.

“Worthy of Celicia. I can’t underestimate her.”

Muen did his best to keep his reaction at a level that absolutely wouldn’t be noticed by Ariel, even though this kind of forced restraint only made the fun sharper, the flame burning even hotter.

But now that things had come to this, he definitely wasn’t going to admit defeat easily. «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» He could only keep moving forward.

When the five-finger vanguard he’d sent to break through fortifications finally dismantled all the opponent’s defenses, and there was nothing left that could block his way, Muen drew a deep breath. He suddenly thrust his head forward, briefly admiring the spoils of victory he was about to pluck, then immediately dispatched his most “soulful” small elite unit to strike straight at the heart of the enemy camp!

...

...

“Your Majesty, are you really okay?”

“Mm... I’m fine.”

Celicia’s body went rigid. She gripped the edge of the desk hard, stopping her body from trembling so she wouldn’t lose composure in front of Ariel.

“An injury of qi and blood is hard to restrain, and I’ve made you laugh. But this really isn’t a big issue. You have knowledge in this area—you should know that next, I only need to focus on recuperating.”

“Mm... that’s true.”

Ariel nodded for real. If Celicia truly was just experiencing agitation of qi and blood, then what she needed most right now really was recuperation.

“Then there’s nothing more to say. Thank you for your concern, Ariel.”

Celicia wiped the fine sweat from her forehead and smoothly brushed her hair again... but this time, Ariel suddenly froze.

Because she didn’t know if it was her imagination, but in that instant just now, an astonishingly erotic charm suddenly spilled out from Celicia’s body, as if all the chill around her had been driven away by the warmth of deep spring, the ice completely melting.

So beautiful it made you suffocate.

But it was only an instant. Ariel hadn’t seen clearly before Celicia returned to normal again.

“What is it?”

“N-Nothing.”

Ariel hurriedly said, “Since Your Majesty isn’t seriously ill, then I’ll take my leave first!”

“Go.”

Celicia let out a sigh of relief.

For the first time, she felt that meeting and speaking with someone could actually be such a difficult thing.

Of course, she would absolutely never admit that if this continued, there was a real possibility she might lose.

...

...

“Celicia’s state just now... feels kind of weird.”

After leaving the student council office, Ariel couldn’t help sinking into thought.

Even though Celicia’s reason had no flaws, she felt like something was off.

At the same time, a thought that she believed should be absolutely impossible began to surface bit by bit, and no matter how she tried, she couldn’t chase it away.

“Teacher, did you notice anything strange?”

Ariel asked.

“No.”

Ariel’s teacher’s figure floated out lightly.

“The emperor’s authority has been covering that little girl the whole time. I can’t sense anything abnormal.”

“Then...”

A glint flashed in Ariel’s eyes as she asked,

“Was there a third person in that room besides me and Celicia?”

“Hm? Why would you ask that?”

Ariel’s teacher asked in confusion. “Who would dare hide somewhere an imperial emperor is staying? Are they trying to assassinate the sovereign? And where in that room could anyone even hide? Under the empress’s skirt?”

“...Right.”

Ariel thought about it and felt it was impossible too.

Looks like she really was overthinking it. Something that ridiculous—how could it happen a second time?

So her mood lifted again. She put her hands on her hips and said,

“I see. Then it really is a serious aftereffect. I have to work even harder and get Celicia more energized!”

...

...

Inside the student council office, after Ariel had completely left, Celicia directly froze the door and the windows, then suddenly lowered her head and flipped up her skirt.

Muen was still there, bent over and focusing on his offensive. With the nuisance finally gone, he was even more diligent.

And her two long legs had already started spasming and jerking. She couldn’t make any fine movements anymore, so naturally she couldn’t counter him at all. She couldn’t even suppress the increasingly exquisite syllables leaking past her lips.

Even though what Muen had deployed at this moment was only a surprise unit, its agility wasn’t something the main force could compare to. And with this being her first time experiencing this, in only a short span, Celicia was already beginning to lose her armor and weapons, unable to hold herself back.

She looked at Muen beneath her. A flare of annoyance flashed through her alluring eyes full of springlight. She lifted both hands high...

But in the end, they still landed gently. Her ten fingers threaded into Muen’s golden hair as she lifted her swanlike pale neck and sank into it together...
