"Mercy...? What...what are you talking about..." A beastly stench emanated from his wife, whom he seemed to be facing as a monster.
Male instincts rang the alarm bells, warning Albert to evade danger.
Having become a lord, he had laid down his sword for about twenty years.
Faced with this long-awaited crisis, Albert should have quickly escaped.
"Ce...Crestia...?"
"Heh...♡" Even with his body stiffened by the passage of time, a hero is still a hero.
While he couldn't fight the impending crisis, he was perfectly capable of dodging it.
Instantly activating his hero's aura and breaking through the window to escape was Albert's only way out... Perhaps because she was still his wife, Albert forcibly ignored the warning signals ringing in his heart.
...No. In fact, Albert had also realized it.
The woman before him was no longer his wife. Even so… in this moment of crisis, he couldn't muster the will to flee.
The reason… perhaps…
"Pfft…♡Just as I thought♡. Sister Celeste♡"
"Heh heh…♡I knew it? Now, Albert…♡"
"Yes. That male is waiting for this♡"
As if they were bystanders, the two women sat cross-legged on the office sofa, staring at Albert.
The blonde woman—Saint Claire—was scrutinizing him.
Through those chillingly dark eyes.
Since he usually kept his eyes closed, this was the first time he had seen the Saintess's pupils.
While anyone would be terrified of those long, narrow, dark eyes, Albert's trembling now had another reason.
Those beast-like eyes were piercing through his twisted heart… an indescribable, bone-chilling fear. At this moment, Albert was nothing more than pitiful prey, the target of beasts.
"Hahaha♡ As expected of Albert♡ You really didn't disappoint me♡"
"Ce-Crestia… what are you saying…"
"Thinking about it, you always manage to meet my expectations. That's why I'm considering marrying you… However, the most important thing is that your penis is a pathetic, limp limp cock♡"
"H-Wife…"
"Hehe…♡ For someone like you, I have a gift for you♡" Ceres chuckled, placing the file folder in front of Albert.
His trembling hand slowly reached for the file folder on the table.
Observing Ceres's urging expression as he tore open the envelope and looked at the first page of the stack of documents.
Albert had to close his eyes.
"…Is it…a divorce…" The inevitable had finally arrived. This emotion weighed heavily on Albert.
Ever since witnessing his wife mating with that monster, he couldn't help but sense that this moment would eventually come.
Because he hadn't satisfied his wife. Because Ceres was now completely obsessed with that monster.
His wife, Celestia… was now the monster's female, Celeste.
"…Understood, wife…Since this is your wish, I will…"
"Hehe♡The gift has to be seen to the end♡Albert♡" With despair, Albert reached for a pen to sign the divorce papers before him.
Celeste stopped Albert, turning to the first page of the divorce agreement.
"…!? You, what are you doing now…!?"
"Hehehe…♡" Hidden on the back of the divorce papers were documents containing content that made it difficult to stay awake.
As they were unfolded on the table, Albert's mind began to wander.
What was going on? Why was he being given these absurd things?
"You, you… What are you thinking!? What is this…!"
"Oh…isn't this only natural? Albert?" His 'ex' wife smiled, tilting her head as if asking a question.
Her full breasts pressed against his bulging belly as she pointed to each document.
"A proposal to transfer the lordship to me. Although it requires royal permission, as the bloodline of the former Lord of Ladia, it should be granted without any problems, right?♡"
It's not a question of whether it's possible or not. Ceres seemed unconcerned, sighing as she continued.
"Actually, I wanted to offer the position to my master… but the lordship requires a noble title. Isn't there no other way?"
Ceres seemed to have already decided to transfer the lordship to herself.
Before I could object, Ceres pointed to another document and continued.
"This is a transfer document stating that all your private property is being transferred to your master.♡ Since I made you a noble, it's only natural that you take the property as alimony in the divorce, right?"
Even as the spouse in the divorce proceedings, she's still trying to squeeze out even the absurd alimony—this is the logic of a selfish beast.
Faced with such absurd and selfish content, I didn't know what to say.
"This is a swearing oath never to disobey my master.♡ This is a business authorization document for exercising some of the lord's authority…♡" After confirming several documents, Albert finally understood what these beasts were after.
Celes and these beasts not only wanted to force him to divorce Cecilia… but also intended to turn him into a slave…
"This is a custody and paternity waiver for Cecilia.♡ Cecilia will be raised by me and my master. You just need to keep quiet and watch."
They wanted to take everything from him, including his daughter.
"This is a magical contract that will take your life if you violate it.♡ Although such magical contracts can be dissolved by the church, the Church of Radhidia will absolutely not help you dissolve it, so please rest assured."
His life was in their hands.
No one would sign or obey such absurd contracts and memorandums.
Even if he hadn't satisfied Cecilia.
Even if he and Cecilia were divorced.
Even so, there was no reason to obey such ridiculous content, was there? Indeed, without Ceres, he wouldn't have become a nobleman and the lord of Ladia.
But returning to commoner status was fine; there was no reason to suffer such humiliation.
Just as he was about to question Ceres, she pulled out the last piece of paper and shoved it in front of Albert.
"Heh heh ♡ Feeling too strained? Of course, there's a reward too ♡ Here, this… ♡ As long as you work diligently according to the contract, I'll come and satisfy your broken genitals once a month ♡ And… ♡ Not with my hands or feet, but with my body myself… ♡" The memo, filled with bizarre content—claimed that monthly obedience to these beasts would bring rewards.
The moment Albert saw its contents, a darkness crept into his heart.
No. No. This is the only thing I can't accept.
Even with his twisted destructive desires, this is the only thing…!
"Don't… don't talk nonsense… even if we divorce, this absurd content is still…"
Albert forcefully suppressed his surging destructive urges and shook his head in refusal.
Albert, clinging to his humanity, resolutely rejected the monsters' offer.
But the monsters, as if anticipating this reaction, chuckled...
"Y-you...!?"
"Hehe...♡" Celeste pulled down Albert's trousers, smiling sweetly at him.
"That's right♡ First, we have to experience it♡ Just how intoxicating is this last reward I'm proposing...♡" Celeste arched her slender back as if prepared, turning her gaze to the monster who was scrutinizing them.
The moment the monster stepped forward and embraced Celeste's waist, Albert finally understood.
"Even if it's so pleasurable it drives you crazy, it's okay...♡" These monsters and his wife, reduced to beasts... were there to hunt down his rationality.
