Chapter 1604 - 225 - The New King Of Bethlan (13)
Titania and I ended up going through a full ten rounds of sex, and every single one of them happened over the course of that same night without either of us slowing down.
Neither of us stopped even once. I kept pounding into her while she wrapped both of her legs tightly around my hips, locking me firmly in place so completely that the only thing I could really do was keep thrusting into her over and over again without changing the rhythm.
I never even bothered changing positions throughout the entire night because neither of us wanted to interrupt what we already had going. I stayed on top of her the whole time, completely dominating her just as she had asked, pushing through seven straight rounds of mating press without pulling out a single time or stopping to catch my breath.
By the time we reached the eighth round together, she was already halfway to passing out from nothing but pure exhaustion.
"Nnnnnnna....! Ahhhh—————nnnnnnnnnnn! Ahhhh...~———~~~~~~~!!!"
Her moans gradually became more and more broken, almost as though she no longer had enough strength left to make proper sounds. The elegant expression that always suited a princess, or even a queen, had completely disappeared by then. In its place was the face of a woman who had been thoroughly dominated through sex, unable to hide even the smallest trace of it anymore.
Just as she had asked me earlier, I didn’t hold back in the slightest. I continued pounding into her relentlessly, refusing to ease up for even a moment until her womb was literally filled to the brim.
By the time we finally reached the tenth round together, she had already gone far beyond ordinary exhaustion. Her entire body had gone limp beneath me, and she simply lay there while trying to recover whatever little strength she still had left. Looking at her now, it honestly felt like her body had completely given up on trying to keep up with me.
I quietly looked at her for a brief moment before something suddenly appeared right in front of my eyes without any warning whatsoever.
Now that the final requirement had finally been fulfilled, it meant I had completely conquered Titania. As a result, her skill, Butterfly Effect, had become mine, and from what I could already tell, the version I received was even stronger and more refined than the original one she had possessed.
While I was still looking over that notification, Titania suddenly stirred beside me before slowly opening her eyes and looking back at me with a faint smile.
"C’mere, Leon," she said softly as she spread her arms and legs apart once more, making it pretty obvious that she wanted us to stay in bed together for a little while longer instead of getting up right away.
Since she was inviting me over, I quietly moved back into her embrace without saying anything.
"Fufufufu..."
She let out a gentle little chuckle that sounded far more relaxed than before.
Honestly, hearing her laugh again made me feel genuinely relieved. Seeing that she still had enough energy left to smile and tease me just a little told me she was doing much better than I had been worrying about only moments ago. It also made me realize that she was tougher than I sometimes gave her credit for.
"Now I finally feel like I’m whole again," she said quietly while resting comfortably against me. "Thank you so much, Leon."
Honestly, I didn’t really feel like I had done anything deserving of hearing those words from her.
If anything, I honestly felt like I should have been the one thanking her instead, because she had trusted me with far more than I could ever take lightly.
"Now..." she murmured while gently rubbing the area around her lower stomach. "I wonder if it actually worked."
"I’m honestly not sure," I admitted with a small shrug. "But while I was fucking you earlier, every single time I came inside you, I kept repeating ’get pregnant’ over and over again in my head like some weird ritual."
Thinking back on it now, I honestly felt like I had accidentally turned myself into some eroge protagonist without even realizing it.
Still, if repeating those words in my head somehow increased the chances even by a tiny bit, then I probably would’ve shouted them out loud if that was what it took. Looking back on it, that probably would’ve been pretty embarrassing, but at that point I honestly wouldn’t have cared.
"Well... if it really worked," she said with a small smile as she continued gently rubbing her stomach, "then that means... I’m going to have a child with you, right?"
She lowered her eyes slightly before letting out a quiet breath.
"Honestly... Father could’ve waited just a little longer. Or maybe he could’ve told me sooner. If he had done that, then I could’ve tried to have a child immediately for him."
I understood exactly what she meant without needing her to explain it any further.
If the King had managed to live just a little longer before passing away, then he might have been able to see Titania’s child with his own eyes.
Even if he hadn’t lived long enough to watch the child grow up, simply knowing that his grandchild had finally been born probably would’ve made him happier than words could ever describe.
Sadly, fate had different plans.
The King was already gone, and nothing was ever going to change that now.
He would never get the chance to hold his grandchild in his arms or smile proudly while watching the next generation of his family begin.
Honestly, it hurt more than I wanted to admit.
Part of me had seriously wanted to use Resurrection Magic before he finally passed away.
Deep down, though, I already knew he never would’ve accepted something like that.
Using Resurrection Magic required lives to be sacrificed, and that was a price he never would’ve allowed anyone to pay for his sake.
Knowing the kind of king he had always been, someone who genuinely cared for his people and refused to throw away his principles even when death was staring him in the face, I knew he would’ve rejected it without a second thought.
That was exactly why I chose not to use it.
Even so, a tiny part of me still couldn’t help wondering about the possibility.
If I had ignored his wishes and brought him back anyway, would he have been able to witness the birth of his very first grandchild before finally finding peace?
That question lingered inside my head for a while before I quietly let out a slow breath.
Thinking about things that could never be changed wasn’t going to help either of us move forward, and carrying around regrets forever wasn’t exactly healthy either. Sometimes life simply refused to give people the ending they wished for, and all anyone could really do was accept it.
"I..." Titania suddenly spoke again before turning toward me with a calm but determined expression. "I honestly feel like I’m finally ready to take on the responsibility now."
She smiled softly before continuing.
"I mean becoming a proper queen for this kingdom. It still feels a little scary if I’m being honest, but I don’t think I’m running away from it anymore."
She looked straight into my eyes with confidence.
"You’re here with me now, so nothing’s going to go terribly wrong, right? As long as I’m with you... I honestly feel like I can do anything. Maybe that’s a little embarrassing to admit, but that’s how I really feel."
I couldn’t help smiling after hearing those words come from her.
"You’re right," I replied gently while holding her close. "We’ll face everything together, Nia. You won’t have to carry any of those burdens by yourself anymore, and I’ll stay right beside you through all of it."
After saying those words, I leaned forward and gently pressed a kiss against her forehead.
