Chapter 1357: Stage

For the rest of the day, and accompanying evening, Vahn spent most of his time recuperating from his mental fatigue. This was often where his children came into play so, as the sun crested over the horizon, Vahn had gone to pick up Mordred, Sakura, Mash, Zoë, and Astrid up from the Clock Tower. Afterward, all of the children were …

Chapter 1356: Frustration

Contrasting her earlier bravado, it didn’t take long before Aoko was shaking her own hips; her cries a mix of frustration tinged with impassioned moans. She didn’t know how to properly find the release she instinctually craved so, with Vahn’s energy wreaking havoc throughout her body, it took most of her willpower just to avoid imploring him to move. To …

Chapter 1355: Bravado

Though he knew she was pushing herself, Vahn didn’t want to make things too difficult for Aoko. As much as he enjoyed watching her strip down in front of him; her body really was quite phenomenal; he didn’t want to force her into a difficult situation. If she managed to strip down while he just sat on the sofa with …

Chapter 1354: Atmosphere

Contrary to how usual confident and outgoing demeanor, Aoko was quite weak when it came to others taking the lead. She was better at making decisions and acting upon them, not being pulled along in the pace of other people. As a result, Vahn’s act of pulling her closer to him caused Aoko to momentarily fluster before; realizing what he …

Chapter 1353: Small Steps

After escorting Nero for a much longer period of time than he intended, Vahn had come to know a few key things about the first-century Empress. Perhaps the most important thing to note about her was the fact that, almost certainly as a result of her [Migraine] Skill, Nero simply couldn’t focus on anything for more than a few seconds. …

Chapter 1352: Behind the Curtains

Around the same time that Vahn was showing Nero around the castle, a young man could be found sitting in his bed, a lit cigarette in his mouth as he leaned against the headboard. His eyes glowed an eerie bluish-purple color, a thoughtful expression in his eyes. Next to him, a young woman with blue hair tossed about in her …

Chapter 1351: Developing Tensions

(A/N: I realize I may not have described Nero’s outfit properly, causing a bit of confusion. Though the final design will be left to your imagination, she isn’t wearing her Red Saber outfit. Rather, she is wearing something akin to a translucent wedding-dress with three key parts. The top is a strapless lace bodice that hugs her figure, accenting her …

Chapter 1350: Bear Witness

Having heard Alexander’s remark, Vahn was at a momentary loss as, from a certain perspective, it wasn’t far from the truth. Fortunately, this didn’t show on his face so, without missing a beat, Vahn released a chuckle of his own before explaining, “I called you here for two reasons, each uniquely important to the world, and Empire, at large. Your …

Chapter 1349: Character

After a rather emotional embrace, followed by a few words shared between themselves in private, Ozymandias turned to Vahn with a serious expression as he said, “You are a man of your word. I’ll remember this favor and endeavor to show it through my actions. So long as it does not tarnish my dignity as a King, I will dutifully …

Chapter 1348: Acquiescence of the God-King

Since being too expressive might leave a strange impression on the people he was summoning, Vahn waited until he returned to the Throne of Heroes before releasing an exasperated sigh. From Bedivere’s own accounts of events, it turned out that the man had basically starved himself after the presumed death of Artoria, fully intent on following his Liege in death. …
