"I'll become a general who conquers various countries. Charlotte, you're fortunate to witness it up close. You should feel proud."
I said to her under the starry sky.
"Yes, I will." she replied.
I knew it was the truth then, and I believed it would come true.
...
"You still can't bring that fort down, have you?"
"No, I'm sorry, father..."
"True nobility lies in winning by any means. It seems my teachings haven't resonated with you. Being a child doesn't excuse poor behavior."
...
"What's the matter, Peter-sama? you seem to be in poor spirits lately..."
"No, it's nothing."
"I see..."
This is a "man"'s job, not a "woman". So there's no need for her to worry.
...
"What did you say?! That fortress was taken down by Platinum Breaker?"
"Don't you feel embarrassed to be outdone by a woman like that?"
"I'm sorry..."
"Hmph, well, at the very least, I'll give you credit for getting that Terrace woman."
"But don't be content with that. A woman is a tool, and she should be able to bear children. If she cannot bear a child, you will be a disgrace to our family!"
"I understand."
Apparently, being "right" includes being corrupt.
...
"<Shadow>..."
"That's right, one of the tools of the family that you will inherit."
That must be my siblings.
"Learn how to use them."
...
"I hear the Platinum Breaker has taken the fort again. What about you?
"Master Peter, you are an aristocrat only if you know how to use your tools well."
"Tools."
"Use your tools. Learn to handle your <shadow>."
"Understood."
Using 'tools' skillfully is what makes a noble.
...
"Hmph, don't get too carried away just because you captured just one fort. It's only natural for my son to be able to do that much."
"Oh yes, only my son could have taken that fortress. I am so proud, Duke."
Everyone but myself.
"Well done, you have taken back the fortress that that idiotic house took away from us."
The <Shadow> must be used to its full potential.
...
"Did that woman's sister become pregnant?"
"But it seems that your concubine did. Haha, well played. Did that Terrace family send an infertile woman to my house?"
Certainly, an infertile "tool" is of no value.
...
"A woman who cannot conceive is worthless. You do understand that right? Charlotte."
"..... yes, I understand....."
Why do you look so sad?
After all, a tool is nothing but a tool.
...
"How dare you forget all the things I did for you and raising you?, you ingrate!"
"Using 'tools' skillfully is what makes a noble, Wasn't it you who taught me that?"
...
"Oh, ah....."
My vision turns red.
Was is blood.
No,
Flame.
Like magic, the flickering images and "voice" are overlapping with the roaring flame.
――What is this?
Why am I seeing this?
*crackling*,
*crackling*, *crackling*,
Why was Charlotte look so sad then?
You were supposed to stand proudly by my side, when I become a general.
"――, ――――, "
Someone was saying something.
"Fuhaha, Fuhahahaha!"
It was a high-pitched laugh, like that of a fierce beast.
I think I had heard this before.
*crackling*,
*crackling*,
Why is Charlotte look so happy now?
Next to a man who wasn't me.
And then,
I saw it.
A huge fireball that is about to engulf everything.
And the man who shot it out.
And the cheerfully pregnant woman standing next to him.
She was conceived, but not by my seed.
The 【Flame】 like the sun is burning me.
I felt the corners of my mouth involuntarily rise.
――Ah, so you are my "punishment".....
Go ahead and burn me down.....
"Avoid it, Piteeeeer! I didn't mean it!"
I could no longer hear what he was saying.
◇
Oh shiiiiiiit!
Seriously, Peter, dodge!!!
Sorry! I didn't mean to shoot! The fire was supposed to be a little weaker. Just enough to knock you off. But then...
Make the alarm of "Chicken Sense" ring out.
Surprised by this, I unintentionally released my 【Ignis】. And because I did it on the spur of the moment, I put all my strength into it.
If I had to use an analogy, It was like reflexively sneezing.
It was the power of a one-hit kill, which I had no intention of doing.
The attack melted all the ice that Peter-san had swirling around him,
As if it was singing "Yahoo♪" and rushed toward him
――Ah, I'm finished.
Peter focused all of his energy on the ice from earlier, and he smiled contentedly as though he recognized he was done.
Stop it! Don't give up! If you give up, it's the end of your life, Peter! You may have had some epic drama, but don't make me an unintentional killer because of it!
The lord of Aldora, burns his wife's ex-husband to death.
What kind of bizarre incident is that?
――And it seems like there could be more of them, which is scary.
Even if I say something like that, the 【Ignis】 that I let loose roars, and blazes towards him. Stop thinking useless things at a time like this!
When the 【Ignis】 I released reached him, the corner of his mouth lifted softly.
――His peaceful face, it's like something out of a dream..
*thump*!
With a dull thud, the large fireball sends his body flying, whirling and flipping over and again, breaching the barrier and scattering them like glittering feathers. My flame left a huge hole in Swift's residence.
Peter-san, who continued to spin as if he had been hit by a truck, crashed onto the floor of the party venue and bounced around without losing momentum.
Oh no. No, no, no. My 【Physical Enhancement】 has enhanced my eyesight.
I witnessed his death with perfect clarity.
*plop*...
And,
I heard a sound like something heavy like watermelon hitting the floor...
――I'm going to dream about this. Even though Charlotte-chan and other girls were the only ones who could appear in my dreams...
"Don't worry, Desmond-sama, I made sure he didn't die".
A reassuring telepathic message entered my mind. But isn't it a bit too late?
"Really?"
"Really. He wasn't on fire right now, was he?"
"Really."
As expected of Charlotte-chan, she properly intervened to prevent her husband from getting a criminal record.
――Hm? Intervention? That seems dangerous in its own way.
But however, it's good that he's not dead.
"Yes, He's not dead, how can he."
...
――As long as he's alive, that's good enough!
And then...
"Fuhahahaha! So you're my sister's husband! This is the first time we've met....hmm."
An emerald gaze, like that of a demon, was fixed on me.
That's right, now the "chicken sense" alarm is ringing, tell me that, in fact, I am the one teetering on the brink of life and death.
O-Onee-sama.
Charlotte's older sister and Margaret-sama's eldest daughter.
That alone was more than enough, but she even had the grandiose allias of 《Platinum Breaker》.
She laughed ferociously, and as she approached me, her ample bosom emphasized by the dress, just like her sister and mother (the color was white), jiggled and bounced.
The "chicken sense" which had not sounded a peep a moment ago was now ringing like a broken bell. Could it be that my true enemy was not Peter, but the women of Terrace?...
She majestically entered the circle of nobles, as if she were a competitor entering the arena.
Her large emerald eyes, like precious jewels, were the same color as Charlotte's and Mama's, but why did they exude such overwhelming energy?
――I honestly can't look directly at her.
Platinum blonde straight hair and fresh brownish skin that could be mistaken for that of a teenage girl. ――Why is her skin brown? And her beauty that exudes a fierce sexuality that makes one think she is in her mid-twenties. Can you believe it? She's actually older than 29-year-old Charlotte-chan!
"She's 38."
"3...? Ah, oh my goodness..."
A devilish mature woman...
Speaking of that, what would Margaret-sama, her mother, be called?
She is a woman in almost forties with a great figure...
――Wow, what a crotch wedgie...
Even though she wore a 'skirt', the cloth only covered the sides, and from between it, her brown flesh was fully visible. Not only the glamorous groin area, but also the soft and plump mound, and the clearly visible slit, were even more clearly visible to my 【Physical Enhancement】-enhanced vision. Ahem, what an attack power.
It seems like the battle had already begun. I stumbled forward slightly as if I had taken a blow.
"I'll throw my panty at you if I have to! Charlotte's panties also have a lacy pattern! It's a duel, Desmond-sama!"
"Do that on the bed later!"
It seems that fawning over a blood relative is out.
But even so, I couldn't take my eyes off her.
This is―― that feeling.
If I looked away for a moment, I'd be killed.
"Hahaha! You've got a respectable attitude to not avert your gaze from me."
I made the wrong choice right away! If possible, I want to start over from the save point.
Suddenly,
*Bo~ing*!
The elder sister's breasts pressed against my chest.
Hoo-hoo! What a vicious elasticity.
If I'm not careful, I'll be blown off by her tits.
"Desmond-sama...?"
Damn, the little sister's pressure is too much...
"Hmph, huh, oh~ho... "
The onee-sama looks down at me with a twisted smile.
I feel like I've seen this scene in a dinosaur movie from a past life.
With a fierce toothy grin, she licks her lips and stares me down from a distance where I can feel her breath on me.
Help, someone, anyone.
At this point, even Peter-san rolling around somewhere in this venue would do. Please, someone, pull this beautiful MILF demon off of me...
Perhaps my feelings got through to her, as the elder sister suddenly turned away.
――What a relief!
"Alright, I've decided! Sister, give me your husband!"
／
――Huh?
――Eh?
――What?
If this were a manga, all ten panels on the page would be filled with my reaction.
And then...
Gah!
I was lifted up onto onee-sama's shoulder.
"Hey, what are you doing!?"
This person doesn't just fail to read the room, she completely ignores it.
This is Peter's house, and he should be lying somewhere in this venue, but there's no longer any room to spare for him.
"Onee-sama!?" Charlotte is astonished.
"If you say you're pregnant with his child, then I'll also get pregnant with his seed. The next time we meet, I'll be carrying his child too."
With that, onee-sama smirked, and unfortunately ―― I couldn't see her face as I was still being carried ―― I felt the pressure coursing through my legs.
Perhaps she intends to jump? But there's no window, right? No, there was a hole I made.
"I won't give you Desmond-sama even if it's onee-sama!"
As onee-sama faces Charlotte while carrying me on her shoulder, I hear a crackling sound coming from behind me.
Could it be that Miss Charlotte is trying to use her【Five Fin⬤er Flares】 or her 【Dra⬤on of the Dar⬤ness Flame】...on me?
"If you don't want to get burned, please get out of there Desmond-sama."
"I literally had my ass on fire!?"
But Charlotte, if I could get out of here, I would. But as soon as I think about moving my "chicken sense" is immediately alarmed with a warning siren.
"Moving would only make things worse."
So,
"Y-yes, I understand that but..."
"And besides, even if I get captured, don't we have that?"
―― Heart Communication.
"Hmmm, yes, that's true. Then it would be a great opportunity for me to go and rescue captured Desmond-sama... Fufufu..."
Good, I have gained understanding from my beloved wife.
However,
That might not be a good thing.
Onee-sama then said.
"Hmm? What's this feeling?..."
As she's saying 'It stinks, it smells like rom-com.'
"Ah, is this it?"
"Then..."
"Snap!"
The connection between me and Charlotte was cut off.
"Oh my...that's why you should hurry and turns it to "bone"..."
My mother-in-law said something, but."
"Wha, a, ah, aaaaahhh!!"
"Fuhahahaha! Excellent, good magic! Truly worthy of being my sister."
The older sister laughed heartily in a good mood. However, a tremendous flow of eerie magic is coming from the direction toward my ass...
Oh no, this is bad! Something terrifying is aiming for my butt! Charlotte, you...
"What! What is that..."
I want to know too. What exactly is happening behind my ass?
"White, flame... It's like a platinum fire that can eliminate everything."
No way, I'm sure you don't mean it, Charlotte? Don't tell me you are going to hit your onee-sama with that.....
"....."
Oh hell! It's so scary without a reply!
"Alright! Come on!"
Onee-sama was eager to receive it.
Please stop, I'll cooperate with you just let me down!
I struggled to escape from the Terrace Sisters.
But,
I was held so tight and couldn't move!
Why? Why can't I move even though I'm just being carried on her shoulder?!
"Hahaha, struggling now is useless. You're already in my clutches."
Already in my clutches.
It's not going to happen. She may be spouting romantic lines, but I'm just being carried around like a piece of luggage. With my ass turns toward my wife's white flame!
"If you had resisted from the beginning, it would have been a little different. It was so easy because you didn't resist. So I "grabbed" you."
Huh, what do you mean!? And "Chicken Sense" you little...
"Well then, I'll give him back once I get pregnant, little sister."
Onee-sama raises the hand that is not carrying me. I'm sure she has a pretty look on her face right now.
"No way! I doubt you'll ever return him, even if you become pregnant!"
"Oh my, my..."
Charlotte! What are you doing in front of the public with Mama and Papa and the nobles here?!
"Oh, yes, the pleasure. I've heard a few things about it from Mother."
Seriously? What!?
I can only have a bad feeling about this. I can use 【Physical Enhancement】(Sex) So I doubt I'll end up having a technobreak [1]...
"Hahahaha! Let's meet again, little sister. Mother, Father, and everyone! Farewell! 【Demon Roar】!"
*Boom*!
The magic of the older sister grow into a dense mass of magic as if a black hole had appeared in this place.
I can't move..... This is the power of 《Platinum Breaker》...... which is said to be one of the "strongest" on par with 《Gray Hound》.
The old man was forged with trained strength, but this lady is naturally strong. Like a natural disaster that simply overwhelms with its fury.
And I, who was caught by that natural disaster...
"Farewell!"
"Return my husband!"
*Frrooom*!
Hey, does that mean it's okay to turn me to ashes as long as you can get me back?
"Fuhahahaha!"
The high laughter of the Breaker echoes through the party venue.
Charlotte unleashed her flame.
That day, Peter's mansion was said to have suffered the unfortunate fate of being half-destroyed by his ex-wife's magic spell.
Charlotte, daughter of the 《Witch of Terrace》 and sister of the 《Platinum Breaker》, would later also be bestowed with the name 《White Flame Empress》――neither I, who was kidnapped, nor Papa, who stood with teary eyes, could have foreseen this.
"Fuhahahaha! I've got myself a groom!"
