Chapter 345

 

 

 

* * *

 

If a Dream Demon existed.

That demon would have worn Karl Windsor’s face and dominated her.

 

* * *

 

How long had she been unconscious?

Dana regained consciousness in a sluggish haze.

The first thing she felt was clear sunlight streaming in, and.

‘…A delicious smell.’

It was the aroma of food tickling her nose.

Dana blinked blankly.

This was the smell of her favorite stew.

When she had lost her memory and lived with Karl as Danae, the stew Karl had constantly made for her.

At that familiar fragrance, Dana’s consciousness immediately felt hunger like a trained dog, and then…

“…So, you definitely destroyed the magic device, right?”

“Yes. The proof is that no one’s having problems now, right?”

This voice was…

“Ah, Karl. But about that man. The red-haired man I mentioned earlier-.”

“Diane. Let’s talk about that later.”

At that moment, her mind snapped to attention.

Dana bolted upright in bed. When she turned around, she saw a man and woman sitting at the dining table having a conversation.

Diane, and.

“Dana, are you awake?”

And Karl Windsor under the bright sunlight.

He sat in a chair with an utterly pure face, wearing an unfamiliar beige shirt and dark brown pants.

“How’s your body? Are you okay?”

Diane asked with a worried expression, setting down the spoon in her hand.

“I heard what happened. You fell into dimensional space while falling?”

“…”

“Are you hurt anywhere? Any places you hit?”

Then Karl pulled his chair back and stood up, answering instead.

“Dana isn’t seriously injured anywhere, so she should be fine.”

Then he walked over to her and reached out his hand.

“Let me check your fever.”

A large hand came up to her forehead.

The moment it touched, Dana held her breath.

“How would you know that, Karl? The castle collapsed, so she could have bruises or contusions in places you can’t see.”

Dana gulped.

No.

This person saw everything.

My entire body. There’s no corner he hasn’t seen…

But Karl didn’t say that. He just murmured with a careful expression while checking Dana’s fever.

“Fortunately, your fever has dropped a lot.”

Suddenly her heart began pounding wildly. Karl’s pure face so close by, and the scent of his skin wafting over stimulated her intensely.

“Dana, your body temperature rose after you fainted. You were unconscious for about half a day. How do you feel now?”

“I think I’m okay.”

Dana barely managed to answer without avoiding his gaze.

“You must be hungry, so it would be good to satisfy your hunger first. Get up and prepare to eat.”

Dana watched Karl’s back as he went to the kitchen. Diane was following behind him very naturally.

“Hey, Karl.”

“Yeah?”

“If there’s still a lot left, give me another bowl too.”

“Wasn’t the portion enough?”

“No, it’s just… honestly, it’s because it’s delicious. You, why are you really so good at cooking? This is definitely a professional’s skill. Have you ever worked as a chef?”

“It’s just a simple hobby. Go sit down and I’ll bring you another bowl.”

“Hehe. I’m excited.”

Diane laughed like a child and returned to sit at the dining table. When their eyes met, she gestured for Dana to come sit down.

“…”

She didn’t know why exactly.

But she didn’t feel good.

 

* * *

 

“All the priests of the Ramun Order died the moment the castle collapsed.”

While eating with Dana, Diane told her about what had happened afterward.

“Really, purple smoke rose from their bodies like they were under some curse and they turned to dust.”

Diane took a spoonful of the stew Karl had made, then spoke enthusiastically again.

“They died without leaving any trace. Not a single hair, even the clothes they were wearing disappeared.”

And she took a sip of the apple juice Karl had personally squeezed.

“I think someone thoroughly destroyed the evidence. They planned it so that if any accident happened, the castle would collapse and the Ramun Order members here would die like dust to eliminate evidence of being connected to the Ramun Order.”

Dana looked in front of herself.

In front of her too were stew and apple juice that Karl had carefully made.

“Dana? Why aren’t you saying anything?”

“…I think the same.”

“Who could it be? Who on earth would use the Ramun Order to do such a thing…”

“…”

The Black Core Creator.

That person probably caused this incident.

‘We should have caught that person…’

How did Karl let them get away?

‘Did they say he escaped with a magic device that moves through space?’

That wasn’t a common thing.

However, among the ancient artifacts Dana knew, there was one similar to that, which was…

‘That mirror.’

The mirror Dana had once tried to obtain on the ‘Red Ship’.

That mirror could be shamanically connected to a specific location, and at that time it was connected to the Frozen Lake.

And if you reflected an identical medium that existed at the Frozen Lake, a path to that place would open.

For example- just like her, ‘Dana’ and ‘Yeon Dana’ in the Frozen Lake, if you reflected identical mediums.

So she tried to get that mirror, but Justio appeared on the Red Ship and things got complicated, Karl interfered, and later the Magic Core exploded and she got caught in the blast, Danae’s body was shattered to pieces and she failed.

‘Maybe something similar to that mirror exists.’

…Come to think of it. On the Red Ship, Karl had obtained that mirror, hadn’t he? Or not?

Karl was also quite out of it at that time, so he might have lost it again.

‘And that Grants Imperial Family member.’

The castle underground.

The corpse of the Grants Imperial Family was the source spewing out corruption.

Who could that imperial family member be…?

Dana fell into deep thought.

Until now, Dana had thought that the power of corruption was solely the domain of demons.

She had thought that what corrupted this world was ultimately demonic power, but…

But now she was thinking… perhaps.

 

“Do not try to fathom God’s will with human thought.”

 

No. She felt like she could fathom it.

The purpose and motive behind that will, everything.

‘First, I need to see the face of whoever is creating that Black Core.’

Thanks to Karl Windsor, her power was fully charged, and thanks to sleeping soundly for half a day, her physical fatigue was completely gone.

With this much, she should be able to look down at that time with Divine Sight.

‘The closer the distance, the easier it is to use my power, so I should go to the castle.’

Having finished her thoughts, Dana began eating the stew Karl had given her.

Just as Diane had praised, it was delicious. At that moment, she suddenly realized.

‘This is Diane’s first time eating Karl’s stew.’

It seemed like Karl had never cooked for her before. At least.

 

* * *

 

“Dana? Are you already done eating?”

Karl was chopping wood with an axe in the backyard of the cabin.

Beside him was a boy helping out. It was the boy Dana had purified.

“You should greet her, Noct. This is the person who saved you.”

Then the boy stuck the axe he was holding into the tree stump to secure it and bowed deeply.

“I heard you saved me. Thank you so much.”

“I should be the one thanking you for letting me stay in this house, Noct.”

Then Noct blushed shyly and smiled.

“Thank me? I heard you’re Diane’s sister, so you’re like family to me. Please stay comfortably for a while.”

Come to think of it, they had made up the story that Diane and Dana were sisters separated by life. Well, anyone would have no choice but to believe it.

The boy returned to Karl’s side and picked up the axe.

“Please teach me again quickly. I want to learn properly while Uncle Karl is here.”

Uncle?

‘Ah. So he’s playing the role of Diane’s uncle here too?’

Noct seemed to want to learn the Wood Chopping Technique from Karl. Dana perceptively spoke up first.

“I’ll wait here, so go ahead and teach him.”

“Alright, thanks. I’ll be right back.”

Karl smiled at her, then turned back to the boy.

And he began teaching him step by step.

How to hold the axe, how to strike the wood straight down, how to use the lower body to draw up the upper body’s strength – all very kindly.

Dana watched such a Karl.

‘Karl really is kind… Well, he was a really good husband and good father when he had a family too.’

Then, Karl’s long, elegant fingers touched the boy’s shoulder. That was the moment.

 

“Do you remember these fingers?”

 

The memory struck like lightning.

Instantly, heat rushed to Dana’s face.

‘Ah, ah.’

It had been hazy until now. It had even felt dreamlike and drowsy.

Suddenly it became so vivid.

Everything came back clearly.

Karl’s fingers she had felt inside, their very slow trajectory, and.

Lips. His soft lips and tongue that had licked, swallowed, and bitten her. When he stopped just as she was reaching climax, she had grabbed Karl’s hair, shaking it roughly to force his movement, then experienced that shameful pleasure, her own beastlike behavior, her savage appearance.

She remembered everything.

‘This is crazy…’

That was really me?

And that was really that man?

As she recalled everything, a burning heat gathered in her heart, and her stomach instantly boiled over. Dana trembled with confusion at the sudden surge of lingering pleasure.

‘Calm down…’

But she couldn’t calm down.

It had been a truly shocking experience.

In that cave, Dana learned for the first time that the peak of pleasure didn’t end in a single burst but could continue endlessly.

That act had been very long. Though her memory wasn’t precise due to her confused state of mind, she remembered it lasting for what felt like hours.

Throughout that time, she had been submerged in an ocean of pleasure.

Pleasure came like endless waves, never stopping for even a moment. Gently moistening, then crashing forcefully, sweeping everything away destructively.

It was a series of climaxes that made her forget who she was and where she was.

That sensation continued without a single moment’s gap, making it feel like a form of torture.

By the end, she felt like she had become some kind of idiot.

How could caressing alone achieve that…?

‘Right. We didn’t even go all the way.’

The condoms in her bag had fallen into the lake and gotten wet. Dana, regaining her senses then, had stopped him. She had pushed against his chest.

Because she remembered what Lumiere had done inside her… she suddenly became worried.

But Karl didn’t yield obediently.

He just watched intently while trying to enter.

Without a single word. Quietly, silently. As if compromise, dialogue, and persuasion were unnecessary before his intended goal.

And in that instant, from that Karl Windsor… came the scent of guns. His eyes were like bullets.

Desire, arrogance, arbitrariness, coldness, ruthlessness. He felt entirely like a threatening and frightening weapon, and she seemed to have felt great fear.

‘I probably just felt it in an exaggerated way.’

In an instant, that Karl disappeared.

He returned to being the gentle man she knew.

The man who always yielded to her, the man who always looked after her mood more carefully than she did herself.

And from then on, she never witnessed that strange face she had glimpsed briefly again. He was always the person she knew well.

So… he was the Karl I like.

‘The Karl I like?’

That sentence that had naturally come to mind bothered her.

Dana stared intently at Karl showing the boy the Wood Chopping Technique. And she realized anew.

Not only his innocent face and wonderful body, but also his kind attitude, clear eyes, actions, small habits, even the way he walked.

Everything that composed that person matched her taste perfectly.

She hadn’t known it until now, but it seemed to be true.

‘And… I didn’t know I had such sexual preferences either.’

The strange desire she had felt in the cave. The aggressive impulse to possess and dominate him – Dana discovered some dangerous aspect of herself she hadn’t known existed.

Long ago, Karl had mentioned in passing that she might have dominant tendencies.

‘It was true.’

The exhilaration she felt when she finally brought down the always upright Karl Windsor was so stimulating that just remembering it made her heart throb.

And everything that happened after that too…

‘Really… I hate to admit it, but… it felt good…’

What did he say again? Did he ask if he could do it on my stomach? Did he ask for permission?

Karl’s vulgar words like that. Besides those, every single word he said, each and every one without exception.

Absurdly, all his lines and actions excited her.

Something she didn’t even know about herself, or rather didn’t want to know – the rock bottom of rock bottom, impure and filthy and immoral desires she didn’t want to be caught harboring, not by others and not even by herself.

Karl stimulated all of that intensely.

How does Karl Windsor know even her sexual preferences and secret desires that she herself didn’t know?

‘Did he research me enough to write a thesis about me as a person or what?’

Or is it just that they happen to be well-matched by coincidence?
