Chapter 38: King Lot Ian
[After comforting her, you and Morgan continue to search the surroundings.]
[Unfortunately, you don't find any more useful information.]
[The magician who can turn petals into empty suits of armor seems to be very cautious, and even Morgan can't find any traces worth referencing.]
[You can't help but wonder if there really is someone in the world who can be so thorough.]
[With dawn approaching, you and Morgan can only mark the location for now and return to the royal capital for further discussion.]
[After Morgan sets up the necessary magic, you mount your horses and head back to Camelot.]
"Ian," Morgan suddenly spoke, breaking the silence that had lasted the entire journey.
"I want to ask you a question."
"Please ask, Princess Morgan."
"If... we had never shared those pleasures, would you have loved me?"
"Princess Morgan, though it may be a bit presumptuous." Ian slightly tightened the reins, slowing the horse down.
"I would like to correct one of your perceptions."
"My love for you is not a product of pleasure."
"It is because I love you that I dared to ask you for those pleasures."
"Also, I didn't 'love' you in the past—I still love you now, it hasn't become a thing of the past."
"But what if I were despised by everyone?"
"Then I would despise everyone."
"You're lying, Ian, you can't do that."
"Yes, I'm lying, because Princess Morgan, you can't be despised by everyone."
"Why do you answer so well at times like these?"
"Because Princess Morgan, your judgment is excellent, you chose the best person for the answer of these questions."
Ian's flawless answer made Morgan turn her face away.
She pinched the knight's sturdy arm, feigning anger:
"I ordered you not to answer so well."
"Then, Princess Morgan—"
"If I admit I'm foolish, will you no longer worry about my betrayal?"
"Or rather—"
Ian held Morgan's hand tightly.
"What should I leave with you, Princess Morgan, to prove this?"
[Morgan doesn't answer your question.]
[But she calls you an idiot all the way back.]
(T/N: Morgan: Baka Ian Baka-baka-baka...)
...
....
[Your late return doesn't raise any suspicion.]
[No one would think a knight would dare to offend a noble princess in the wild, and even less would anyone think the princess would order the knight to do so.]
[You rarely spend the day together in the room.]
[Morgan tells you that the suggestive magic that will affect your identity will soon take effect.]
[But before that, you have to learn some things that fit your new identity.]
[You agree.]
[Morgan seems a bit tired, she doesn't ask for anything more, just hugs your arm and falls into a deep sleep.]
[Looking at her like this, you feel your heart pounding.]
[You spend a quiet day.]
[Night falls, and Morgan wakes up.]
[Now it's her turn to watch you sleeping.]
"Ian."
Morgan lay down beside Ian and gently blew into his ear.
He immediately woke up.
"Sorry, Princess, I fell asleep."
"It's okay, I just wanted to see what you look like when you're asleep."
Morgan's hand gently stroked Ian's cheek.
"I've never seen you fall asleep before me."
"But now, you probably have to wake up first."
"I have to choose the direction of the magic based on your physical condition."
"Understood, Princess Morgan."
[Morgan starts checking your body.]
Morgan started undressig Ian.
Then she started licking his body.Yes licking.
"Princess is there any need to do this". Ian said embarrassed as it was the first time he was being treated like candy.
usually it was his little brother who gets this treatment.
[She bluntly tells you—she's checking how much magic your body can handle, which will determine the subsequent actions.]
[Previously, she had already planted traces of this magic in your body.]
[Talent: Mysterious Magic has been replaced with Princess Magic: Morgan has been planning these things for a long time, this check will determine which direction the magic will develop.]
[However, she also tells you that she doesn't have high hopes.]
[After all, you have never shown any talent in magic.]
But then Morgan had a surprised expression.
[the result is beyond Morgan's expectations.]
[Talent: Hidden Talent has been obtained: Morgan discovers unimaginable potential in you, birds of a feather flock together, you might have been in a very powerful group before.]
"Princess Morgan, how is it?"
"Very good."
Morgan's gloomy expression finally sees a temporary clearing.
"I think our plan will be much smoother than expected."
"That's wonderful."
[This is one of the few good news you've received.]
[You cherish this hard-won opportunity, actively striving for everything you can get.]
[With Morgan's help, you master some simple magic.]
[Talent: Magic Enhancement has been obtained: Inspired by Morgan, under the influence of your body, even the simplest magic can enhance its effect.]
[You use it in appropriate places, including but not limited to magic seeds, although it's not enough to resist the decline of the Age of Gods, it's still beneficial.]
[In addition, you bring Morgan fresh roses every day.]
[The number of smiles appearing on her face gradually increases.]
[But you don't let your guard down, you're still wary of the unknown magic you saw that day, constantly searching.]
[But it seems to have disappeared, like the magician who never appeared.]
[In the end, it's Morgan's suggestive magic that takes effect first.]
[Others' perception of your relationship is gradually changed by magic.]
[Your return is now seen as a foreign royal family falling in love with the princess, willingly becoming one of her knights.]
[The princess's charm is further praised by the bards of Camelot.]
[No one questions this.]
[Because your excellent and generous performance in daily life fits their perception of royalty, even without magic.]
[They would occasionally call you King Lot, but prefer to call you Ian.]
[No one would think of your past secret trysts.]
[Your relationship is acknowledged.]
[Several months later, near the wedding date, Morgan and you overlook the current state of Camelot from the top floor.]
Morgan stood there, overlooking everything on the street, while Ian stood beside her.
"Ian."
"Yes, Princess Morgan."
"Do you like the identity I arranged for you?"
"I do, I like everything you arrange, Princess Morgan."
"Hmm, I like it too."
Morgan turned around and took Ian's hand.
"Let's go."
"Princess Morgan, where are we going?"
Morgan smiled charmingly.
"To my room, of course."
"You don't want to help me put on my wedding dress yourself, do you?"
