Epilogue 1.

Professor Sven’s mouth opened wider and wider as he looked down at the project report. Having been in the teaching profession for decades, had there ever been a student who produced such perfect results until now? He sent an admiring gaze through his thick glasses.

“Indeed…… If this method is applied, the effect of healing magic would be considerably amplified even with less mana usage. Excellent, Your Majesty the Empress.”

“Thank you. It’s thanks to your good guidance, Professor.”

It was when Erna, who had exchanged a few pleasantries with Professor Sven, was about to turn around and leave. Students from other classes were stuck like cicadas to the glass window outside the classroom, looking at her with curious eyes. At the pouring gazes, Erna greeted them brightly without showing any discomfort and left the classroom.

“Her Majesty the Empress really smiled at me, right? Today’s the first time I’ve seen her in person up close.”

“I heard she received the highest score on this exam too?”

“The professors are full of praise saying she’s a talent of the ages.”

Following the light footsteps stepping into the courtyard, Erna’s long light pink hair fluttered. Looking at the splendid imperial carriage parked at the main gate as always today, Erna slightly scrunched her nose.

“Hubert, I told you last time too, but you don’t need to come pick me up, you know? I can go by myself just fine. His Majesty is being too overprotective too.”

“What, I’m coming because I like it. Thanks to Your Majesty the Empress, I can escape from work even briefly, so I’m rather happy.”

As always, Hubert opened the carriage door with a good-natured smile.

Erna, who had returned to the palace, had dinner with Alexion in the dining room and told him in detail about what happened at the academy. Alexion looked at Erna, who was excitedly flushed red, and listened to her stories.

Listening quietly to her clear chattering voice, he felt as if the day’s fatigue was melting away like snow. But the peaceful time was brief. Erna, who had finished eating, went up to her room first saying she had some studying left to do.

“……”

Alexion’s silver-gray eyes, staring at Erna’s retreating figure, sank darkly like an abyss.

Alexion, who had returned to his office, tapped the paper’s margin with his sharp pen tip. No matter how much he stared at the letters, work just wouldn’t come to hand. Eventually he put down what he was doing, got up from his seat, and headed to the couple’s bedroom.

“……Ha.”

Alexion stood at the doorway and glared frighteningly at the empty bedroom. His mood was already twisted beyond measure by the tiresomely repeating pattern.

Had it been a little over a year since Erna entered the magic academy? Alexion had opposed Erna’s enrollment from before, but reluctantly permitted it due to her persistent pleading. However, on the condition that instead of the typical four-year course, she would take an intensive guidance course and complete it within two and a half years.

“I never knew two and a half years would feel this long.”

Should he have opposed it to the end after all?

Alexion, who had never regretted his decisions even once in his life, was feeling bitter regret for the first time.

At first it was good. Her green eyes that sparkled like ripened summer when she was absorbed in something were beautiful enough to color even his heart. But during exam periods or when there were important projects, there wasn’t even time to have proper conversations. The one meal they had per day was the only time they faced each other.

His complaints didn’t end there.

As Erna gained a reputation as an honor student at the academy and began receiving admiration from mages, she even gained followers. Every time he saw mages who came to the imperial palace requesting an audience with Erna, Alexion felt irritated.

As their time alone decreased, his patience burned away quickly like kindled firewood. Sometimes he even had the twisted impulse to eliminate the magic academy entirely. Yes, just like right now.

Struggling to suppress his rising anger, Alexion rubbed hard between his narrowed brows. Erna absorbed in something was lovely, but it was troublesome if her eyes weren’t directed toward him.

A good idea crossed Alexion’s mind as he stood in front of the bedroom as if nailed there for a while. A meaningful smile hung at the corner of his lips as he headed somewhere.

***

“Ahng, Your Majesty, wait, just a moment…… hng!”

Erna, sitting on the desk full of spread books, arched her long neck back and moaned. Her wet underwear hung draped over one of her calves.

Following the index finger that had been poking her p*ssy, Alexion smoothly inserted his thick middle finger. At the increased volume, the red flesh chewily bit his finger. Satisfied with the tightness, Alexion stroked the inner walls as if praising and dug deeper inside.

He knew well how to make Erna restless. Where and how to touch so that Erna would tremble with pleasure, cry out in ecstasy, and get prettily wet in his embrace. When he circled her cl*toris with his thumb drawing circles, Erna trembled and made a swooning sound.

“Ah, haang!”

Unable to contain her excitement, Erna pulled Alexion’s hand that was around her waist and placed it on her chest. When she looked up with pleading eyes, Alexion chuckled and grasped her br*ast as she wanted. He kneaded the br*ast that overflowed in his large palm up and down heavily. His eyes narrowed as he saw the n*pple that protruded boldly through the fabric.

When he untied the string that held her chest together, Erna’s pale br*asts poured out abundantly. Alexion pointed his red tongue sharply, then poked Erna’s n*pples before putting them in his mouth and sucking. At the sensation of being rubbed by the rough tongue bumps, Erna’s n*pples hardened into firm shapes.

Even while sucking her br*asts frantically like a nursing child, Alexion didn’t stop the hand poking below. Squelch, squish, the sound of fingers and vaginal walls interlocking gradually ripened. As her above and below were sensitively stimulated simultaneously, Erna didn’t know what to do with her excitement. While lifting her hips and twisting her body, she wrapped her arms around Alexion’s neck and hugged him tightly as if thirsting for greater stimulation.

The moment Alexion’s fingers that had been stirring inside pressed down on Erna’s sensitive spots one by one, her inner walls contracted as if they would cut off his fingers. At the tingling pleasure spreading through her entire body, love juices burst out from below her with a spurt.

“Mmng, ah, haa……”

It was when Erna, whose excitement hadn’t subsided, was panting heavily. Something was strange. Usually Alexion, who would have covered her without giving her time to regulate her breathing, was unusually quiet.

“Your Majesty?”

At her puzzled question, Alexion silently stared at her p*ssy. His eyes reddened with l*st at the lewd hole that was still biting his finger and gaping. He wanted to tear off her clothes right now and thr*st his c*ck into her p*ssy to his heart’s content.

Even though they had mixed bodies countless times until now, every time he felt Erna’s soft skin and sweet scent, blood would rush below without fail and he would become stiff.

But this time he had to endure.

Alexion, who had suppressed his boiling l*st with miraculous self-control, pulled his fingers out from inside her. Erna urgently grabbed him as he tried to pull his body back.

“Your Majesty? Why, why……”

Erna, who had glanced at Alexion’s bulging pants, swallowed her saliva. Finding her appearance of being desperate to be penetrated by his c*ck cute, Alexion clenched his jaw and made fists behind his back.

“Why aren’t you putting it in?”

“For your sake.”

“What? For my sake?”

At Erna’s face showing she didn’t understand at all, Alexion kindly added an explanation.

“With your stamina, if we continued like this, you’d fall asleep as if fainting again, and that would be troublesome before an exam. Besides, aren’t you a promising talent of the magic academy?”

“What……”

“I shall restrain myself until my empress graduates.”

At Alexion’s expression that was extremely serious as if he had made a great resolution, Erna, who had been half out of her mind in a daze, screamed at his following words.

“I hate it!”

A loud voice came out unconsciously due to her urgent feelings. What kind of absurd declaration was this? Erna was very flustered by this situation.

It was Alexion who had barged into her room while she was studying hard. After making her heated with all sorts of embarrassing acts until just now, he was saying he would stop now. Erna shook her head firmly.

“I hate it.”

She glared at the front of Alexion’s pants and made a threat.

“Would Your Majesty really be okay? Not holding me until graduation?”

“……Well.”

Alexion looked down at her p*ssy that was twitching wet with love juices and narrowed his eyes wickedly.

“I’m more worried about the empress than myself.”

Then he picked up a book from the messy desk. Each page of the book that was torn and crumpled messily had traces of heated f*replay.

“Oh my, for a student to dirty books. You’re still so sloppy even after becoming empress, Erna.”

As soon as she saw Alexion’s mischievous expression, Erna instinctively knew something had gone wrong. When she realized she had fallen nicely into his scheme, it was already too late.

“Alexion!”

Erna, who had become angry, glared with fierce eyes while trembling, but only the smile hanging on Alexion’s lips deepened. Alexion lightly kissed Erna’s forehead.

“Then work hard, Erna.”

Leaving behind a quiet word, he disappeared leisurely.

Later, Erna became a graduate who completed the academy course in the shortest period in history. People praised her, but no one knew about those intimate circumstances.
