"Please wait for me!"

After several minutes, the door slowly opened a crack.

But even just a gap was enough for Ian to see her behind the door—it was Altria wearing a white dress.

After confirming that there was no one else, she said happily:

"Mr. Ian, please come in!"

[Altria brings you into the room.]

[And the moment you see the decoration inside the house, you are once again surprised from the bottom of your heart. ]

[Because this is so wrong.]

"Altria, why is the room like this again?"

I saw the same thing Ian had lamented.

Compared to the last time I came here, Altria's room has undergone another drastic change.

If the previous one was a crude imitation of Morgan's room, this time it was truly her own style - or should I say, closer to King Uther's style.

"Because you said it looked weird, so I changed it."

Altria blushed as she stood in front of Ian.

"Mr. Ian, does this still make you feel uncomfortable?"

"...Not bad." Ian said matter-of-factly.

"At least I think this style will be more suitable for you."

"Really?!" Altria seemed very happy.

"That's great!"

But she soon seemed to remember something, lowered her head and held Ian's hand.

"Mr. Ian, do you know what day it is today?"

"..."

Hearing this, Ian's heart skipped a beat, but he still put on a hypocritical smile on his face.

"It's the moment when you draw your sword."

"Congratulations, Altria."

"Well..." Altria blushed.

"But Mr. Ian, I'm actually a little nervous."

"so--"

"Can I ask you for a favor?"

"Well, Altria, you should know that there are some things that are not suitable for me to do."

"Of course I know." Altria replied quickly.

"So this matter will definitely not cause any trouble to you, Mr. Ian!"

Ian became a little confused.

"In that case, what is it?"

"Mr. Ian, the wine tasting method you asked me to try last time was really interesting."

"so……"

Altria blushed slightly and reached out to lift the white cloth on the table beside her.

There were several bottles of corked wine on it.

The girl slowly sat down on the edge of the bed and shyly pinched the hem of her dress.

"Mr. Ian, I would like to complete this ceremony with the Camelot wine you prepared."

"..."

Ian was forced to work as a bartender - he had no reason to refuse.

Fortunately, he had some knowledge in this area because of Morgan, and the wine provided by Altria was also top-quality.

Several kinds of wine are mixed in the most perfect container. The clear liquid creates small whirlpools and emits a mellow aroma.

Ian finally understood why winemakers were always so obsessed with wine vessels.

It is not easy to get a container that can completely dissolve the wine.

but--

The girl's capacity seemed to be full, and it might overflow as her body shook.

But Ian has a solution.

Under Altria's approving and warm gaze, he picked up the cork that had already been washed clean by the wine.

"Altria, if you feel uncomfortable, tell me."

"Um……"

The girl's legs were trembling slightly.

The wooden cork that isolates the inside and outside of the wine vessel also slowly falls into place.

The clear spring in the garden has been tightly blocked, so there is no need to worry about the appearance of thin streams.

"Are you ok?"

Ian helped the girl up.

"Why don't we just forget it?"

"No." Altria leaned against Ian.

"That's good."

"Thank you, Mr. Ian."

"I'm not nervous at all now."

[Your meeting with Altria ends with the aroma of wine and the kiss of the girl.]

【After a while, the ceremony of enthroning the king began. 】

[You and Morgan stood in the crowd, not so noticeable. ]

[After all, you are destined to be just supporting roles at this moment. ]

"..."

Seeing Altria on the throne, Morgan's expression was almost completely out of control.

If Ian hadn't let her vent her anger on his arm, the situation might not be as calm as it is now.

"That woman..." Morgan's voice began to tremble.

"How dare you sit in that position!"

"It's okay, Princess. That throne is not what we need." Ian comforted Morgan beside him.

"You said you would have a more perfect throne."

"But looking at her like this—"

Morgan's cheeks were distorted and spasmed.

"Ian, I'm so upset! Why can't it be me?!"

"..."

Ian understood exactly how Morgan felt at the moment.

She has never been able to accept this destiny that she was born with.

Altria is Morgan's absolute enemy at this moment.

Ian had mixed feelings.

"My Lady Princess, you think this is all unfair, right?"

"That's right!"

"I understand."

Ian touched the bulge of Morgan, which was determined to be filled with water as a protest because of unwillingness, but his eyes never left Altria in front of him.

He knew that the cold-blooded Knight King was actually blaspheming the investiture ceremony just like the abandoned princess.

It's just that she is happy and Morgan is miserable.

That's really unfair.

As a despicable knight, he knew who he should be loyal to.

"My Lady Princess, am I still your best chess piece to this day?"

"..."

Morgan didn't know what Ian meant by saying this at this time.

But these are the words she always says, so naturally she can't deny them.

"Yes, Ian, you are my best chess piece."

"With your words, I feel relieved."

Ian stood up.

If it's a chess piece, then it's reasonable to be abandoned, right?

If you are a chess piece, you won't have any psychological burden in doing despicable things, right?

If you are a chess piece, no one will blame you for using any means necessary to achieve your goal, right?

So--

Replace the king with a pawn.

Ian looked at the girl on the throne.

It would not be wrong to take advantage of her genuine emotions to corrupt her completely.

Let's start by humiliating her on the throne where no one is around.

70. Enjoying the Girl's Shameful Wine in a Despicable Way (-word chapter)

[Altria begins to fulfill her promise. ]

[She, who has been granted the throne of king, is ready to ensure that every member of the Knights, including you, obtains the status that they deserve after taking on this responsibility.]

[You, Gawain, Kai, Gaheris, Aggiven, Gareth.]

[These are the initial six knights, but there will not be only six. ]

[You know that everyone thinks differently when they look at Altria.]

[But you don’t care about that—because you know exactly what your purpose is.]

【The enthronement ceremony of the new king has begun. 】

[The first six knights came to Altria one by one.]

[She sat on the throne and gave the commendation that a king should perform in a stern but encouraging tone.]

[The last honor of talent has been obtained: Now the honor is in front of you, you need to think about whether this is your last chance in this life. 】

[Your reputation has risen to an unprecedented height. ]

【But you were not distracted by these things, you knew you had something to accomplish in this meeting.】

【Now it's your turn.】

【You walk forward.】
