I Became the Master of the Empress - Chapter 319



323

He officially reported the current situation to the Imperial Council in preparation for war and obtained the right to conscript Nicaeans.

Of course, there were objections, such as Karl’s, that the Ministry of War, not the Ministry of State, should take charge, but I used my influence with Terra to suppress them.

“Hmm… Is this enough for today?”

In the morning, I held a strategy meeting to discuss the grievances against Babylon and how to diplomatically apply pressure. In the afternoon, I deliberated on strategies to defend Philip and Nicaea.

In the evening, I met with Karl to stabilize our intelligence network and to place agents around Emperor Darius.

-Creak.

“Ugh!”

As I stretched, a crack echoed from my back.

Should I head in soon?

Glancing at the clock, I realized it was nearly 10 PM.

Due to the recent war, I had come to a new agreement with Terra.

From Monday to Friday, I would work until dawn, and on Saturday and Sunday, only until 10 PM.

“It’s about time, so I should head back.”

Normally, I would take a day off on Sunday, but due to preparations for war, I was working seven days a week for the first time in a while.

Is that why?

I feel more tired than usual lately.

As our visit came into view, I turned the doorknob.

“I’m out… huh?”

The scene inside was strikingly… no, vastly different from the usual.

Terra usually wore her luscious gray hair down, but today she had it tied back, a white cloth wrapped around her head, dressed in attire befitting a palace maid.

Caught off guard by the unexpected situation, I wore a bewildered expression, and she lowered her sharp red eyes slightly, bowing her head to greet me.

“Welcome, my lord?”

The… the Empress is in a maid costume…?

Isn’t that just wonderful?

To be honest, she used to have a haughty and slightly cold demeanor, but after having a child, she had grown increasingly affectionate. Seeing her play the role of a maid with a blank expression sent a thrill through me.

W-Wait, where’s Ian?

I searched for Ian, just in case, but he wasn’t in our room.

That means… he must be with the nanny or my mother-in-law.

In other words… today, she is my very own maid.

-Swallow.

“Thank you for your hard work today.”

With a clear, calm voice, Terra spoke as if it were second nature, which was her charming point.

—

As if she had done this many times before.

But as you know, Terra was born a princess, and later became the crown princess, and then an empress.

For such a woman, it wouldn’t be familiar to do something that lowly maidservants might do, yet there was no hint of that at all.

“Hmm, thank you.”

“I’ve warmed the bathwater. Please come this way.”

Seeing Terra act so naturally, I decided to play along and tried to act as composed as possible.

Honestly, I really liked this surprise event.

Ahem… I’m a man too, you know.

As I followed her to the bathroom,

– gulp.

The bathtub was filled with steaming warm water, and rose petals floated on the surface, giving off a lovely fragrance.

“Excuse me.”

Saying that, Terra tugged at the sleeve of my coat.

Is this… a bath service?

Such services do exist here.

Usually, maidservants or attendants purely help high-ranking women bathe, but the reverse is rarely seen.

I’ve heard that such play could happen with prostitutes from brothels.

In other words, outside of brothels, it’s generally not easy for a male noble to request a maidservant to assist him in bathing.

The laws regarding noblemen’s crimes of rape are somewhat strict here.

Of course, a nobleman wouldn’t necessarily be arrested for raping a maidservant, but there are laws that require a set amount of money to be paid.

If you pay that money, it’s legally non-existent, but usually, maidservants in such noble households don’t want to work, and since the reputation among nobles wouldn’t be good, high-ranking nobles like me have no choice but to visit brothels for such services.

– gulp.

This… was completely my fantasy.

To be born as a noble in a fantasy world and experience something like this from a maidservant was a dream of mine.

While I was lost in such thoughts,

– swish.

Terra had removed my upper garments, and now she was clumsily unfastening my belt with her delicate hands.

Her expression seemed emotionless and somewhat cold, but inside, she must have felt a bit frustrated.

You’d need to have unfastened a man’s belt before to do it easily.

Anyway, I truly thought today that I had made a great decision in marrying Terra.

—

As she pulled down her pants, I said,

“I’ll take off my underwear.”

As I said that, Terra carefully undid her corset and slowly unbuttoned her white apron, revealing her chest.

– Sshhh.

The way she slowly undressed, as if to tantalize me, felt more sensual than usual.

What can I say?

Do I have to acknowledge the erotic point?

Her slow, deliberate movements, as if to arouse me, approached me in a different way.

Before I knew it, she had taken off her apron, neatly folded it, and was slowly unbuttoning her inner shirt.

After finishing, she carefully folded her shirt and took off her long black skirt.

With a pure, innocent look, she wore a white, cotton underwear, but her slightly flushed face betrayed her tension.

“I’ll attend to your bath…”

She poured water from a wooden bucket onto her body, then held out the remaining water in the bucket to me, asking politely,

“What’s the water temperature like?”

I thought she was asking me to check the water temperature, so I dipped my hand into the bucket and said,

“It’s just right.”

Then, she spoke in a cold but refined tone,

“Thank you.”

There was something dignified, reminiscent of the old Terra.

It was as if I was seeing her before we got married, when she would treat me with a mix of coldness and elegance, and I couldn’t help but get excited.

Although I was afraid of her pregnancy and didn’t dare to do anything, I couldn’t forget her majestic and refined demeanor back then.

As someone who had often fallen for her deadly beauty and charm, her current behavior was a huge stimulus to me.

As I thought that, Terra carefully poured water from the bucket onto my body.

She poured warm water onto my shoulders, chest, and back, then applied something to a sponge and said,

“I’ll apply some perfume.”

The perfume had an extremely luxurious scent.

Normally, I wouldn’t use perfume as a man, and would instead use soap, but women use perfume with soap ingredients.

As I know, it has a similar effect to modern body wash, but it’s extremely expensive.

The ingredients are expensive, so it’s natural.

Terra grasped my arm with the sponge and began to soap me down…

Suddenly, I stopped and said,

“Ah… I’m sorry.”

“Huh?”

When I questioned her words, she applied soap to her chest, creating foam, and…

She pressed her chest against my arm and whispered in my ear.

“Does it… feel good, Your Highness?”

Her voice was peculiar, with a hint of shyness and excitement.

“Yes, it’s soft and comfortable, just as I like. You’re surprisingly good at this, considering it’s your first time.”

I spoke in the most aristocratic tone I could muster, observing her reaction.

She subtly turned her head, her expression hidden, but her ears turned slightly red.

“Thank you for the compliment.”

– Squeak, squeak…

Tera, who had finished applying soap to my arms, put her arms around my waist and pressed her chest, full of foam, against mine.

Ah… happiness.

“Heh heh…”

Was Tera’s chest being stimulated or something?

I teased her, seeing her weakly gasp and breathe hotly.

“Are you excited? You’re being indecent?”

“That… that’s… not… I’m not excited.”

Her words were filled with embarrassment, and she struggled to maintain her composure, her voice trembling slightly, which made me smile.

Knowing that Tera had become more sensitive after giving birth to Ian, I found her even more adorable.

“Now, let’s wash off…”

I sat down in the bathtub, pointing to my upper body, and jokingly said to Tera, who was about to apply soap only to my upper body.

“Just for a moment, if you’re going to soap me, I want to receive it properly here too?”

“There…?”

Tera looked at my lower body with a trembling gaze.

She seemed to have made up her mind, kneeled down, and said,

“I’ll take the liberty.”

And so, she began to wash my chest.

– Tap, tap…

After childbirth, her breasts had grown fuller, and the sight of her sucking on them, the sound of our flesh colliding, was incredibly erotic.

I wanted to see her face….

But contrary to my wishes, she bowed her head, making it impossible to see her properly.

Before I knew it, the bubbles had formed, and she quickly got up, saying,

“I’ll wash you now.”

As she washed away the soap bubbles and stepped into the bathtub, Terra followed, removing the bubbles and getting in as well.

“Ah, this feels great.”

The fatigue of the day melted away in the warm water, leaving me feeling languid.

“My lord, I’ll perform oral service now.”

As she said this, Terra gently tapped my waist with her palm, as if telling me to lift my hips slightly.

Is she still trying to maintain the act?

But I found myself enjoying it, so I slightly lifted my hips, and she placed my legs on her thighs, my erection subsiding in the warmth, and she lifted my penis out of the water….

-Slap….

She licked my penis with her tantalizing pink tongue.

Seductively….

Instead of putting it in her mouth right away, she teased me with her erotic tongue, licking my penis, and I could feel the blood rushing to it.

Now that I think about it…. this feels familiar, like I’ve seen it before. Am I just imagining things?

As I was lost in thought for a moment,

-Chup….

She began to put my penis in her mouth.
