[FMMIKA] Chapter 253: Harem of Dragon Emperor
🕑 Added 2023-10-19 19:31:42 +0000 UTC'Oh, I understand now. I get it.'
'They think I'll be nicer to a girl, be more gentle, and go easier on her, so they're trying to use her to seduce me, huh?'
The Dragon Emperor Artorius pondered and came to a conclusion as he observed the Chaldea group.
'Absolutely wicked, absolutely unbecoming, just downright despicable.'
He felt he had the Counter Force's plan figured out.
===
At the same time, by the side of the Dragon Emperor.
'Is that 'me'?'
Unlike the inner thoughts of the Dragon Emperor, the 'black version' of Jeanne's focus wasn't on the queen or the Chaldea duo playing around. Certainly not on the hooded guy either.
From the beginning to now, there was only one person who could hold her attention.
It was her own, the 'white version'.
Different from her ill-tempered, sarcastic-speaking, perpetually sour-faced version, this 'version' had bright golden hair and beautiful, creamy-white skin and healthy-looking, unlike her own pale and sickly complexion.
This girl always wore a gentle, faint smile.
But that didn't mean the 'white version' was weak. In her words, in her determination, and in her fleeting glances, one could see courage and resolve. She had her own code of conduct.
'Compared to her, I'm just...'
Jalter, thinking about this, felt a sense of inferiority complex.
"You fool." Catching a glimpse of her thoughts, Artorius instantly grasped Jalter's thoughts.
"It's fine to make comparisons, but don't get too hung up on it. Although you have a deep connection with her, ultimately, you and that woman are two different people. You don't need to live your life trying to be like her. Or feel disappointed because you think you're not as good as she is."
"Who said I ever think like that? Cut it out!"
Even though she said that, Jalter's expression did relax somewhat after Artorius consoled her.
"Instead of that, do you not want to go and see Marshal Gilles again?" Artorius continued, "The trip back to Paris has already been arranged. When we return, that guy will be executed."
"... "
Upon hearing Artorius, Jalter fell silent once again.
"Although he's a terrible fool, and your condition isn't great either, strictly speaking, it's that guy who created you. If it weren't for his twisted and despicable desires, you wouldn't even exist."
"Huh?"
Hearing Artorius say this, Jalter once again had a puzzled look, as if she'd heard something strange. "Are you trying to say that guy is my father?! You bastard!"
"Do not disrespect His Majesty."
In the past two days, after witnessing the Dragon Emperor's prowess in bed, Carmilla, who had become more subservient, spoke out loudly. But Jalter paid her no heed.
"What you think is your own business."
Artorius wasn't going to be disturbed by that, in fact, Jalter's anger looked like a kitten's attempt at intimidation. Whether it was the Mordreds or the Alters of Artoria Species, Artorius had dealt with many children who liked to emphasize their strength, making it easy for him to handle.
"When did I say you should consider that guy as your father? It's something you said yourself."
"Gugugu..."
Unable to counter Artorius, Jalter clenched her teeth and let out a sound that mixed anger and disappointment, then turned around.
"Where are you going, Lady Jeanne?!" This time, it was Carmilla who asked.
"I'm going to sleep! Why do you care?!"
"Damn it! Although I was summoned by you, now we are all Servants of His Majesty. In terms of our status—Hey! Are you even listening?!"
Ignoring the Countess who wanted to emphasize equal status, Jalter walked away without responding in the slightest.
"Ugh, this country bumpkin has no manners at all..." Carmilla muttered in frustration as she watched the scene unfold.
"Your Majesty, look at her!" Carmilla exclaimed.
"Haha, isn't this fun?" Artorius chuckled as he watched Carmilla, pretending to be innocent and complaining about Jalter's bullying.
"But, Your Majesty..."
Although she wanted to continue, Carmilla wisely kept her mouth shut after observing Artorius's expression.
"Well, well, good girl..." Artorius said with satisfaction as he watched her being obedient. He gestured for her to come closer with his finger.
Afterward, Carmilla, who had obediently approached Artorius, smiled to please him and used her ample breasts to stimulate Artorius's body.
Since she had taken the initiative and had good manners, Artorius naturally welcomed her advances. During boring nights, he often spent time with Carmilla like this.
What pleased Artorius was that even in this situation, Carmilla did not show any signs of arrogance or an "I've slept with His Majesty, so I'm special" attitude. She knew her place, and that was impressive.
Because of this, Artorius didn't hesitate to give her special treatment and rewards, like saying things he would never say to his other subordinates.
"Jealous of that child, aren't you?" Artorius said as he stroked her beautiful long hair and held her in his arms.
Carmilla remained silent.
"Neither denying it nor admitting it directly, but rather choosing to remain silent. You're as excellent as ever, Carmilla..." Artorius chuckled happily as he held her close.
"You don't need to—because you and her are completely different types of women. You're jealous of how freely she behaves in my presence. You know that if you acted like her, I wouldn't be pleased. Think about it—if she acted just like you and immediately became completely submissive to me, her charm in my eyes would diminish greatly."
He pinched Carmilla's chin, raising it higher to admire her slender, delicate neck.
"My harem needs a variety of women. You, Jalter, I want them all—if they all became the same, it would be boring. There's no hierarchy in this; do you understand what I mean?" Artorius spoke with delight
"No hierarchy? Your Majesty must be joking; you clearly prefer..." Carmilla's words swirled in her mind before vanishing. Her face once again displayed a submissive expression, "Yes, Your Majesty, I won't make a move on Sister Jeanne in the future."
"Haha, there's no need for such lies. You wouldn't just sit back and do nothing, right? It's about maintaining balance." Artorius said with a cheerful smile. "Just don't go overboard."
He continued, "I won't explain how or what to do... you're quite skilled at that, aren't you, Carmilla?"
Carmilla's expression revealed a hint of surprise upon hearing Artorius, but her mood quickly shifted from reluctance, frustration, and anger to submission.
"Yes..." She sweetly replied, "I understand, Your Majesty."
Artorius grinned and touched Carmilla's chin as he gazed directly into her eyes.
"Good, I knew you did, my dear Carmilla."
