I Became the Master of the Empress

63 – Episode 63

-Clap clap!

When I clap, the light ball that brightens the room goes out and the office is plunged into darkness.

I leave the main study room along the unlit hallway.

I guess Lucius got off work?

Recently, I feel a little annoyed thinking about Lucius and Theodora who leave work earlier than me.

I work this late, but my slaves leave work before me.

Of course, it’s true that I, as slave No. 1, Have to stay longer than slaves 3 and 4, but I think this isn’t fair and head to the honeymoon room.

Oh my… What is Theodora thinking?

Originally he said he would send a letter to Sir William, but now he changed his words.

-Starting tonight, I will sleep in the honeymoon room instead of the main study room.

After nodding obediently to the request, which was more trivial than she thought, she wrote her letter and sent it to Sir William on time.

If I had sent it alone, it is obvious that he would have ignored it, but if Emperor Theodora sent it, I think he would have no choice but to move.

The newlywed’s room is visible before you know it.

Gold Area, the space where the royal family lives.

There aren’t many guards there to begin with.

After I took control of the imperial palace, I increased the number of guards, but I knew that my sister-in-law, Theodora, and mother-in-law were uncomfortable, so I placed the guards as they were originally.

I was a little worried at first, but I reviewed the internal structure again and eventually reluctantly decided to return to the previous layout.

It is a special structure as it is the residence of the royal family.

There is only one entrance, and if you blow the whistle, the guards waiting outside the gold area will come running to protect you.

I was a little skeptical at first, but I heard that it changed because my mother-in-law didn’t like her privacy being invaded.

-Knock knock!

[Come in.]

I sigh at the sound of Theodora’s voice coming from inside.

“Haa…”

-Squeak…

When I open the door and go in, I see her lying on her sofa with a blanket over her.

“It came out.”

“You came later than expected today?”

Hearing those words, I sigh and loosen my tie.

“This is the final battle, right? And I have to buy more bond call options.”

The money sent to the United Kingdom has not yet been converted into cash, which is causing more setbacks than expected, which gives me a bit of a headache.

At that time, Theodora quietly wakes up with a gentle smile.

“But haven’t you already earned a lot?”

I nod my head at those words.

“I earned a lot.”

We put pressure on the Financial Services Commission to allow Pieta Trading to freely trade options.

So, as long as you win the final battle, you can solve everything in one go, whether it’s fertilizer or intelligence.

So, at this time, I plan to create a development investment fund to develop the empire’s technology in the long term.

With that said, he sat down on the empty sofa and took out a document from his briefcase.

“Is this happening again?”

Theodora’s face tells me she’s sick of it, and I reply.

“After this war, we will reform the tax system in earnest. “There’s a lot to look at.”

If we win this time and the anti-emperor faction is restored, we will secure enough seats to pass the agenda with just the neutral faction without having to ask for Ioanes’ help.

And… I have to warn Ioanes as well.

With that in mind, we review the final tax reform plan.

I’ve already seen this three times, but I read it carefully to see if I missed anything.

“Really… You only know about work.”

I say this as I look at Theodora, who is leaning her head on the armrest and looking at me.

“That’s my duty, right? Oh right?! Have you seen the reform plan?”

Theodora’s complexion turns pale at my words.

“Ahh! I didn’t see it! “I didn’t see it!”

I say this while looking at Theodora who shakes her head violently, wondering if I might ask her a question.

“Whoa… the emperor should be more careful about state affairs than I am.”

Honestly, I am worried. Although I know more than I used to, I still have no clue how to deal with quite a few old people, such as members of the National Assembly or the Council of Ministers.

Well… I still have a lot of time, so I guess I can teach them one by one.

If you have good talent next to you and pass it on, it won’t be a big problem.

But Theodora, unaware of my thoughts, smiles softly.

“After all, you know better than me, so it’s okay if I don’t know.”

They only say nonsense like that.

“Theodora… A good emperor…”

When I try to say something.

She says as she sits down on her sofa and makes eye contact with me.

“You’re going to rule this empire well anyway, right? “Because I have that person, I am a good emperor.”

“What… What…?”

When I feel embarrassed.

“Whoa… Isn’t it a little hot today?”

“What nonsense is that? Now…”

When Theodora’s blanket fell down…

What… What is it? Was it originally that big?

Black lingerie.

My head hardens against the pure white flesh that is slightly see-through.

This… What is this?

“Huh~ I guess I put a lot of firewood in the fireplace earlier.”

I suppress my instincts as I watch her speak leisurely, fanning her face with her hand.

This… Is Theodora’s trap!

It’s a trap to seduce me, have a child, and poison me!

Suppressing his desire to reproduce with his survival instinct, he barely managed to turn his attention to documents.

“Hmm… It’s the middle of winter, and if you sleep dressed that thinly, you’ll catch a cold.”

As I was desperately concentrating on the documents, I saw Theodora out of the corner of my eye…

She speaks softly as her body trembles as if she is upset.

“Mojiri… Hmph! “I’m going to sleep now.”

With that said, I light the candle on the table…

“Huh…”

I blow it out and go to bed.

“Huh…? “Then I can’t work?”

“If the job is that good! Marry your work?”

Hearing her harsh words, I decided to just lie down and sleep, so I lay down on the sofa where Theodora was lying.

Subtle rosemary scent.

I think it’s Theodora’s personality…

I can’t forget the scene I saw a little while ago.

Sheer fabric covering pure white abs.

And a black bra…

-Gulp.

It was bigger than I thought, right?

When I put on the clothes, I thought they were normal…

I wonder if since I take it off, my breasts will stand out.

It’s bigger than I thought.

I closed my eyes and tried to clear that scene from my mind, but…

It looked very soft.

-Slap.

As I slap my face, I try to erase the scene from before and think about the tax reform plan.

Hmm… Should we lower the tax ceiling a little bit?

I was barely able to fall asleep that night.

***

Mojiri, an idiot, a eunuch.

I curse inwardly as I look at Debian lying on the sofa.

No. You say you love me? Shouldn’t you react if the woman you love is wearing such revealing clothes?

I mustered up a lot of courage and even wore these clothes…

Debian, who is oblivious, is so engrossed in work that he brings work to the newlyweds’ room without even realizing it.

Wow, this is ridiculous!

Debian doesn’t even touch my body in the name of protecting me.

I didn’t believe it at first, but now I’m grateful that they were considerate of me.

Because my first impression of him was really the worst.

The first time I saw it was probably when Valorant rebelled.

At the forced engagement ceremony with Valoran, all I saw was his face from afar as a member of the Grand Duchy.

And did you see my family for the second time the day they were executed?

And when Devian forced me to marry him after killing Valorant, I hated him so much that I wanted to kill him…

I’m not so hateful now.

Rather cute… And a little… Interested in him.

That’s why I decided to wear these clothes.

Not long ago, when I looked at the book her mother gave me, I was confused at first, but I could vaguely sense her mother’s intentions.

I guess your mother is starting to worry about her successor, right?

One of the emperor’s duties includes producing a successor to ensure a stable transfer of power in the future.

Of course, if Debian was a villain, he would have tried to avoid marital relations somehow, but what can I say?

Looking at him now, I don’t think having a successor will be a problem.

If it resembles Debian… I think it would be very cute and lovely…

But that man, my husband, does not touch a single hair on my body in the name of protecting me.

No. But I can’t even tell Debian to touch me.

It’s not like I’m putting in a desperate struggle to receive his love, and I can’t bear to say that it’s okay for him to touch me because of my pride.

No, you said you loved me in the first place? Then shouldn’t it be over?

So I tried to seduce him by wearing something like this, but you fool…

I am alone with my beloved wife, not even sharing the same bed, and wearing revealing clothes like this, but there is no response…

If Devian couldn’t resist his lust and tried to do something like that to me, he would pretend to resist and try to obey me…

The more I think about it, the angrier I get?

From Noble mtl dot com

How could she tell Devian to touch her since she was a virgin in the first place?

She says she is not such a lascivious woman.

Plus, it looks cheap, right?

She says she is not cheap at all. And the more she likes someone, the less she wants to be seen as that kind of woman by her partner.

In other words, I came up with this idea because I had to make Debian take over on its own.

Don’t you dare come over to the bad guy?

Just wait and see. Anyway. It starts today.

I won’t let you get out without you coming over.

That kind of ignites the fighting spirit in my heart.
