"Phew... I'm tired. What time is it?"
After confirming it was past midnight, Albert rubbed his eyes and put down his pen.
Although there was a lot of official business today, nobles were destined to be busy with heavy workloads.
Moreover, he was the lord of the city of Radia. Being busy was only natural.
Of course, there were also nobles who forgot their noble duties and were keen on enriching themselves.
For example, that guy named Baron Brand not long ago... that kid really caused trouble everywhere. "...If it weren't for Lord Shimo, I really don't know what would have happened..."
If it had been any later, many Radia nobles, including himself, would have been implicated.
Having received such a favor, transferring a building in the suburbs to him should be a suitable thank you gift.
Of course, there was also the purpose of having the divine beast reside in Radia for a long time. "...Heh. Truly a lucky divine beast." He picked up the document before him, examining the numbers recorded within.
Since the divine beast's arrival, Ladia, as the city chosen by the divine beast, had become renowned, with visitors increasing daily.
Adventurers flocked there, intercity trade grew, and Ladia's finances improved steadily.
How could this not be delightful?
Moreover, even his wife, whose personality drastically changed upon seeing monsters, and his troublesome daughter had been reformed… For Albert, the divine beast named Semo was an incredibly fortunate existence. However, there was one thing… '…what exactly is this feeling of unease I'm experiencing today…' Even his wife, who so vehemently disliked monsters, had brought Semo into the laboratory he had almost never entered before.
Despite being dressed very lightly when she came out of the laboratory, she felt no shame in front of Semo.
No. Rather than shame…for some reason, the distance between them seemed unusually close.
Whether in front of the lab, or at mealtimes… for some reason, his wife Celestia seemed closer to Shimo than he was.
Although this happened occasionally, strangely, the image of the two seemingly intimate figures lingered in his mind. "…I'm probably just tired." The work that needed to be done during the New Year period was now finished; he could rest.
Cecilia, who was out searching for monsters, would return tomorrow, and Celestia had already left the lab.
Starting tomorrow, the long-awaited family reunion would begin, and he could leisurely spend the New Year.
Thinking this, Albert dragged his weary body towards his room.
He had no idea that something shocking awaited him there…
............ Although the snowfall had subsided, a few snowflakes were still falling outside.
In the dimly lit corridor, a weak winter breeze occasionally tapped against the windows, breaking the tranquil silence.
Following the lonely sound towards his room, Albert gazed at the ornately decorated door and couldn't help but feel a pang of melancholy.
'...How long ago was it that I last made love with Cecilia in that room...' The most bitter thing for a man is his waning masculinity.
About ten years ago, I began to feel impotent, and in the last two or three years, I haven't even had an erection in the mornings.
Though I haven't expressed it, this has certainly come earlier than for men my age.
I am saddened, but the most tormented is Cecilia, who longs for another child.
She wants another son, so Cecilia can live as she pleases, and she can pass the title to her youngest son—how could I not understand such thoughts?
Even I have this thought...but because of my unresponsive penis, no matter how hard I try, the days we spend together are dwindling. "…Perhaps, it's time to accept reality…" "…Hmm♡…!…♡" "…This room needs tidying up too…" "…!…!!! Ah♡…♡…!!!♡♡"
"This room can no longer be used as a couple's bedroom…we should combine our individual rooms and use this place for something else…"
"…Hmm…
♡…!!!…!?…
♡…Eeya♡♡"
"…As a lord, I might not know, but as a husband, it's truly pathetic and shameful…hmm?"
"Ah ee ee♡♡…!!!…!!!♡♡"
"…What's that sound?" A faint sound, almost drowned out by the wind tapping on the window, was seeping intermittently from somewhere.
It wasn't coming from outside. For the sound to travel through the wind to reach here, the lord's office area would be far too far.
Perhaps it's nearby…but if it's at this distance… "…Could it be…" A sudden chill ran through my weary, heavy body.
The bedroom reserved for him and Celestia—the couple's private space.
No, impossible. How could Celestia do this? She's right beside him right now!
...Then, this is... "..." He unconsciously held his breath, pressing his ear against the crack in the door.
Although soundproofing was used, it was ultimately just a technique to weaken sound. If the noise was loud enough, it would still leak out. "...Ah...ah...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh..." A woman's voice, faint yet clearly audible, like the howl of a wild beast, reached his ears.
Unbelievable based on his own experience, but certain it was the strange moaning sound that only a man and woman could produce during intercourse. "...This, this is outrageous...!" Who dared to do such a sordid thing behind the lord's back in the lord's bedroom?
The thought of his private space with his wife being defiled by someone else caused a surge of anger within Albert.
The lord's city had rigorously screened its personnel, both in character and experience, yet such audacious individuals still dared to act.
This could not be tolerated. It was tantamount to insulting himself and his wife, as lords and nobles; they must be severely punished as a warning to others. "...Which fool is so reckless...I'll take these guys...!" Just as he was about to push open the door, Albert gritted his teeth, suppressing his anger.
He needed to at least see what kind of people they were.
Perhaps it was a mistake made by the young servants in a moment of impulse.
Punishment was necessary, but depending on the circumstances, perhaps a lighter sentence could be considered.
Thinking this, to avoid being noticed from inside...quietly, he grabbed the doorknob and pulled it open...
"Ugh...oh...oh...oh...oh...♡♡♡Сock is the best...oh...oh...oh...oh...♡♡♡♡" A familiar voice emitted a beast-like groan, piercing Albert's eardrums like a thorn.
"Ah...ee...ah...ooh...eeh...eeh...eeh...a familiar sound...?" No, it was a scream I'd never heard before.
"Ugh...ooh...ah...ah...eeh...ooh...eeh...a strange groan, like a painful wail, I'd never heard it before.
"Ah...eeh...ooh...uh...uh...eeh...ah ... The scent of a man and woman in intercourse… a strange, highly concentrated odor mixed with foreign substances.
…This is… the scent of a wild beast…?
…No.
If it were this scent, it would be even more impossible; Celestia wouldn't be here…
"Ah, ee-ee-ee-ee♡♡♡♡" The moment I peeked through the crack in the door, the woman sprawled on the bed like a four-legged beast, raising her head and hissing at the doorway.
Her hair shimmered with a translucent sky-blue.
Her purple pupils seemed to be smiling happily.
The face of a woman I knew so well. But it felt like I was seeing her for the first time, a strange expression.
My wife. Celestia… a sinister smile, seemingly vulgar, appeared on her face as she hissed.
"Ugh, oh oh oh
♡ Oh oh
♡ Oh oh
♡ Oh oh oh oh♡♡♡
"Ha, haha…"
Albert, his legs weak, collapsed in front of the door as if he had fallen.
Suddenly, a murky color appeared in his boiling mind, as if stirred up by something.
Why, why his wife?
Why was Celestia screaming like that?
And why was it behind Celestia like that…
"Hehe…! How is it! Celestia! Is my Сock tasty!?" Shimo, who had come to the lord's city today, was roughly shaking his hips behind Celestia, wasn't he?
Shimo, a monster, and Celestia, who hated monsters?
Why?
"So good
♡So good♡♡Ahhh
♡So, so good ahhh♡♡♡" He couldn't understand. His mind was a mess, as unreal as a disturbing nightmare.
It was no wonder, because Celestia's appearance was far too abnormal.
A lewd expression on Celestia's face, unlike anything he had seen in decades.
And a posture he had never tried before, like that of a wild beast.
Because of this posture, her huge breasts swayed and drooped.
And behind her breasts, a massive belly, swollen like that of a full-term pregnant woman, was clearly visible.
Not to mention the excessively gaudy lace lingerie she'd shamefully bought and worn to treat her impotence…
…Why?
Why is Celestia's belly, which was normal just hours ago, now so swollen?
Impossible… Is what I'm seeing through the crack in the door really reality?
"Like a wanton noblewoman! She's fainted several times, yet she still clings on!"
—Snap!
"Ah, ee-ee♡♡"
…No. Even if it's not reality, even if it's a dream, it doesn't matter.
Whether it's a dream or reality, Celestia is my wife. My woman.
A belly swollen to the point of almost bursting, swaying violently.
Making the bed creak, as if it were about to fall apart.
Now, to anyone who sees her, Celestia is in danger.
She must be protected.
From that dangerous monster with its ferocious body… protect Celestia…!
"Hehe… cute little girl. You really are best suited to be a monster—no, my personal sex toy, right? Celestia?"
"Ah… Ah… Ugh… Ahh ... That evil monster must be defeated!
Only then can my wife Celestia…!
*Snap!*
"Not answering!?" "Ah…yes♡♡♡Yes
♡It's…a…penis…hole…oh
♡Monster
♡The…penis…hole…used…by…Lord…Semo…ah
ah
ah
♡Hmm
woo
oh
oh
♡
♡
" Just as it was about to pounce, the monster's black claws roughly grabbed Celestia's hair.
Her crouching body was lifted up, revealing her enormous belly and Celestia's face.
…What exactly was that?
Celestia is my woman… my wife of decades… That dazed, broken expression, I'd never seen before, was now on her face.
Though tears welled in her eyes, there was no trace of sadness on her face.
That drooling, vulgar laugh, for some reason, looked incredibly blissful.
I'd never seen Celestia so happy before.
During our sex, she would just smile calmly… yet she was experiencing a frenzied bliss from being with that brutal, savage monster.
"Ugh…"
♡ Ah…
♡ Hmm…
♡ Oh…
♡ Ah…" And, most unbelievably… what was joined to Celestia's genitals was the penis of a ferocious demon beast, thicker than my arm.
…Impossible. That thing… is thrusting inside Celestia? Celestia is now… experiencing happiness because of that thing? "Hehe...ha, hahaha..."
His body, which should have erupted in rage, lost all strength the moment he saw that expression.
A churning dizziness made his head spin, and his senses swayed so much that he could barely distinguish where he was.
He could sense that this appearance wasn't Celestia's true intention.
He had to rescue Celestia from that monster.
"Mmm...ah ... The moment Albert recognized this masculine disparity and witnessed his wife emitting sweet moans towards that man—he had already succumbed to the monster.
And in that instant of defeat, in that clear realization of his 'loss'… "…Why, book…" Albert's genitals, dormant for years, regained their vitality. "…" No. It was a regaining of vitality, yet it felt abnormal.
It wasn't a straight, erect erection, but rather a weak, half-hearted effort, barely lifting its head.
Albert's genitals, unresponsive for years, now exhibited a strange erection, as if squeezing out their last ounce of energy.
Although the size had increased, even with effort, there was no feeling of upward thrust.
A subtle increase in size, a subtle lift, but a soft, weak erection due to its lack of firmness.
With this level of erection, he probably couldn't have intercourse with a woman… but… "…Gulp…" Barely, he could still manage masturbation alone.
"Hmm…
Ah…
Oh ho…
Oh ho oh oh oh oh…" From the slightly ajar door came his wife's beast-like howl.
Albert's gaze pierced through the crack, and he saw his wife's face, an expression of happiness he had never seen before.
Anger at the absurdity of the scene.
The excitement that surged whenever he looked at his wife's figure.
The sensual sensation he hadn't felt in years.
The humiliating frustration of the monster who had violated his wife.
All of this was ravaging Albert's spirit, veerging him away from the path of humanity. "…" His heart, as if something was shattered, couldn't muster the strength to rush into the room.
Although he wanted to save his wife, the moment he saw that happy expression, he couldn't judge whether it was the right thing to do.
Because, no matter what he did… he couldn't make Celestia look that happy. 'Celestia! It's too dangerous for you to be alone! Come with me…!' 'Don't follow! I don't need any help!' "How was it, Celestia? Did I help out?"
"...Hmph. Well, you do deserve the name of a hero."
"I'm staying in Radia to help too! I have no interest in hero knights!"
"...I told you he's a strange man. Heh...whatever." "Cele...Stia. Are you... alright?"
"Idiot...! Albert! Don't die!"
"I will definitely save you!" "Celestea! I will make you happy! So...! Come with me...!" "...
...Yes! Albert!" Memories of meeting Celestia unfolded in his mind, and the vow to make her happy surfaced in his heart.
Have I really made Celestia happy?
If so, why have I... never seen Celestia with that expression?
With this question in mind, a wave of mixed emotions overwhelmed his defenses.
Albert stared through the crack in the door and loosened his belt.
