Quit being a knight and become a mercenary

303 – End of the Dream (2)

Maria’s confession was honestly heavy.

Of course, she’s not saying I don’t like her, but what should she say…

It seems like she is directly warning me that I will be in big trouble if I abandon her or treat her carelessly.

Her intention to neglect her is not even a speck of dust.

‘Let’s shower her with as much love as we can. Otherwise, you never know when it might turn black.’

You won’t pull out a sword at me just because it turns black, but it seems like these words are hidden in that heavy confession.

It’s a warning that if you don’t care for me and love me, I’ll lock you up in this bedroom.

Although a shiver ran down her spine for a moment, I saw Maria place the ring she held out on her left ring finger.

Then I kissed him lightly.

I want to do it right away, but since the wedding is in a few days, it would be better to wait a little longer, right?

Maria smiled as if she was satisfied and sat down and stretched her body.

As her back straightened, her attractive breasts swayed.

I am also a man, and since it was just the two of us in this room, my eyes naturally went there.

‘You’re a princess who grew up nobly, so why are you so bold?’

It’s not that she’s bad, but Maria often surprises me because she often exceeds my expectations.

As I approached her to gently touch her hand, she suddenly stuttered her words.

She said, “I thought I had made up my mind after the coronation.”

Maria’s face gradually turned into a red apple.

“I could have done better confessing if I had made up my mind. “I get nervous because it’s an important time.”

In the past, when Karin and I had our first experience together, we pushed straight ahead with the thought that the day we had decided was market day.

When I thought about it later, I realized why I was so eager to do it…

‘Our mercenary team did that, right? Then, it may remain as a bad memory for the woman.’

For now, I need to lighten the mood a bit.

It is said that men tend to be driven by s*xual excitement and stimulation, and women tend to be driven by the atmosphere.

No, according to my experience so far, that was a big deal.

“I thought you weren’t nervous at all because you confessed so confidently so far.”

Then Maria showed her upset expression.

“That’s right, Martin, it’s because you don’t know how much I prepared my heart before I confessed to you. “When I first confessed, I thought and worried for several days.”

When I first confessed to Karin, she had honestly planned and calculated that it was worth betting on her.

So, even though I was extremely nervous when planning step by step, I wasn’t nervous when it was time to actually confess or something like that.

‘The reason I’m nervous about confessing is because I think what will happen if I mess up here?’

“I liked you from the moment you first pledged your loyalty, but Martin, I felt nothing but pure kindness towards me. “So I was worried that she might be rejected like the one in the book I often read.”

I also had similar experiences several times before becoming possessed by Martin.

I made a mistake in my confession, and I was greatly shocked when the woman I was close to before confessing became distant from me.

Because of that, I took a leave of absence from college and ran away to join the military.

Now that I think about it, why on earth did that happen?

No, if he hadn’t run away to the military at that time, he wouldn’t have become a mercenary.

When I think about it now, I think it was the best choice of my life.

“Well, if I fail in that confession, I might put an iron plate on my face and get along with Martin again like before, but… Martin, wouldn’t you feel uncomfortable every time you see me? So I was scared. “I’m afraid I’ll feel lonely again like I did then.”

This kind of concern is mainly experienced by men.

If you don’t confess, you won’t even get a chance to date for the rest of your life, but if you fail, you’ll be terrified that your relationship with that person will be severed.

People around you say things like, “Just quit and regret it,” And “I don’t know if you go to the same job, but if you go to college alone, that’s fine.”

This has already been 20 years, including the time I lived here, but do you still remember it?

“So, Martin, I was secretly waiting for you to confess, and I wanted you to approach me by narrowing the distance a little more, as a friend and all. “The maid said so.”

“What did you say?”

“If you, Martin, a noble under the princess, arrogantly propose to me, you could be politically isolated and attacked by other nobles.”

Although the word confession naturally changed to marriage proposal, in this world, the formula ‘love = marriage’ is established among high-ranking people.

So, when Maria first showed favor towards me, I immediately thought that I should get married.

“So I confessed. And now we have become in love with each other.”

After finishing talking about what was on her mind, Maria seemed to have completely relaxed.

“I feel at ease after talking. “Okay, Martin, can you massage my neck?”

The crown used at a coronation ceremony is really heavy.

So, you must have been wearing something like that for an hour, so your neck muscles are probably stiff.

Relaxing my grip on her, I slowly massaged Maria’s neck and collarbone area.

“It seems like all the fatigue goes away in one day. Ha, after I became emperor, the nobles gave me all kinds of unnecessary flattery. I was tired of listening to it. “I don’t know how the stories are all the same.”

Maria started to grumble at me, but I couldn’t hear the grumbling.

Maybe it’s because it’s a dress with an open front chest design…

‘Is this slightly smaller than Lucia?’

I massaged her neck, and her lovely breasts moved up and down a little with each breath she took.

My eyes also moved along with the movement.

Also, did you say that humans are imaginary animals?

If you touch that chest, you can guess how warm it is and how elastic it is…

Maria and I are about to get married, so we can touch each other, right?

Amidst her agony and worry, I went back and forth between pain and happiness for quite a long time.

“……”

As I was in a trance-like state and was massaging my neck, Maria expressed her dissatisfaction.

“Martin, Martin.”

“Why?”

“Are you listening to what I’m saying properly?”

Honestly, I didn’t hear anything at all.

No, in this situation, there would be no one but a priest who could focus on the conversation.

“Sorry, I didn’t hear you.”

After hearing those words, Maria made a dissatisfied expression and tilted her head back to look into my eyes.

“When people talk, it’s not something you should listen to…”

However, once she realized where my gaze was directed, Maria’s anger quickly subsided.

“After all, Martin is also a man, so his eyes can’t help but be drawn to my breasts.”

After saying that, she supported her chest with both arms.

“In the past, I thought it was uncomfortable to be this big, but since you like it, Martin, I guess it’s not that bad. “You can stop massaging your neck now, Martin.”

Then he made me sit on a chair, and this time he sat on my lap.

“I really wanted to sit on someone’s lap like this. “When I was young, my father, the Emperor, never accepted the pampering of his children, and my mother was so preoccupied with secret struggles for power in the palace that she did not pay much attention to her children.”

I couldn’t see Maria’s expression directly, but she was definitely smiling bitterly.

“So I sat on your lap, and it was warm as expected.”

She stroked her head as gently as possible.

After continuing to stroke her head for several minutes, Maria took my hand and changed her position.

A position where I can sit on my lap and look at her face.

So close that her breasts were directly touching my body.

The feeling of her breasts being pressed ever so slightly against my body was very erotic.

Without even asking me, Maria hugged my body and said,

“I feel warm inside. When I have children, I will often hug them like this. Otherwise, those children will be lonely like me.”

They say that the loneliness you felt as a child lasts your whole life.

“That’s right.”

Then I stroked Maria’s thighs for the first time.

Of course she did not reject that touch.

“Martin.”

Maria, who briefly called my name, turned her back.

“If you pull the string behind her…”

I have taken off these clothes thousands of times, so I know very well how to remove them.

I pulled on the straps of her dress, and she took off a layer of her dress.

Underneath, I could see a nightgown and a corset made of fabric that did not clearly reveal the body.

Maria took off her corset that was constricting her waist and breasts.

Then, her waist stayed the same, but her breasts got a cup bigger, perhaps because they were not tight.

‘What is this?’

Then Maria lay down on her bed and stuttered her words in a low voice.

“Sang, please be kind.”
