บท 118: Chapter 116: Punishment
[ Slightly Mature Content ]
....
Luther kicked the doors open to their prepared room and hastily walked to the large bed decorated with red flower petals.
The doors to the room slammed close behind him and a magical barrier was placed on it, making sure no one could enter.
He put Ivery on the bed and looked down at her.
"Now...what?" Ivery smiled at him as she looked at his lustful eyes, knowing exactly what he intended to do
He pushed Ivery down and started kissing up her neck.
"Now we finalize our marriage.." Luther smiled
Ivery tried to hold back her sounds.
Luther's hands unexpectedly pulled on her dress and under his strong hands the dress ripped.
"Luther!" Ivery heard the loud tear
"You don't need it anymore.." Luther tore the dress apart
He tore the dress off of her completely, exposing her body to him and the chilling air. He unlaced her corset and there beheld her undergarments and delicately curved body.
His heart started racing at the sight of her.
Luther's hands roamed across her body and began to take her last layers of clothing off. He tossed the undergarments to the floor and continued working on her delectable body. And thus she was covered by nothing, exposed in front of his eyes, only he saw this, only he could see her body....she was his..
"Y-Your clothes.." Ivery blushed and tugged on his shirt
"Of course" Luther lifted his shirt and removed it, tossed it to the floor
Ivery blushed at the sight of his outstanding body proportions. He had a slender yet muscular figure, and his beautiful abs perfected and complimented it all.
His pants faded into a black mist.
Just looking at him like this always gave her intense anxiety...she could never get used to it.
"Relax.." Luther whispered into her ear as he laid in between her legs
He leaned down and kissed her, distracting her from what was about to come.
Ivery's eyes widened when she felt him enter her depths.
She gripped on the bedsheets and threw her head back. He then slid his tongue across her exposed neck and lightly bit at it.
"Don't pass out tonight...my dear wife." Luther smirked as his eyes lustfully glowed in the dimly lit room
.
.
Ivery woke up and as she sat up she groaned once she felt the effects of last night set in. She stretched and froze in shock when she looked at how messed up the bed was.
Feathers from the pillows were scattered everywhere and the bed was slanted. She also saw the tattered remains of her dress on the floor and sighed.
She materialized a white shirt and put it on, she then slowly got up from the bed and grabbed the pieces of her dress from the floor. Her hands glowed and the dress quickly started to be repaired. She refused to throw away such a beautiful dress, even if she would never wear it again.
"What are you doing?"
Ivery lifted her head and slightly jumped when she saw Luther squatted down in front of her.
"You scared me..." Ivery looked back at him
He wasn't wearing any clothes..
"Luther! Where are your clothes?" Ivery blushed beet red
"Why do I have to wear clothes right now?" He mischievously grinned
"Because!" Ivery couldn't believe he was acting like this
"Because?" He raised an eyebrow
"Just because!" Ivery got up and carried her dress to the nearby couch
"What? Are you mad?" Luther wrapped his arms around her waist and pressed himself against her
Ivery felt extremely hot and her heart was beating harshly against her chest. He was extremely fast now, she could barely even sense him, nor did she hear him walk over to her.
"No.." She shook her head
"Then what's the problem? We're married now, we should get used to each other's bodies." Luther began to unbutton the white shirt she had on
"I guess.." Ivery felt him take the shirt off of her
"Let's go back to bed." He smiled and picked her up
She dropped her dress on the floor in the process..
"But the bed is about to break.." Ivery said to him
"Ah.." Luther noticed it too
His eyes glowed and the slanted bed snapped back together in a blink.
"What did you just do?" Ivery asked him curiously
"Just manipulated reality a bit." Luther said
"For a bed?" Ivery raised an eyebrow
"Yes." Luther put her back down on the bed
"Any more questions?" Luther's eyes turned black
"No.." She shook her head
"Good..now only focus on me." Ivery's surroundings suddenly turned pitch black and all she could see clearly was Luther
He pressed himself against her body and connected their lips together.
Her arms and legs wrapped around him and immersed herself deep into the passionate kiss he gave her.
.
.
Two days after the wedding, Ivery and Luther was asked to go to the meeting hall. They were summoned to decide on the grandmaster's fate for his disruption of their wedding ceremony.
Ivery and Luther entered the room and in the room were both of their parents, Erdel and Caribella, Julian and Cassandra. As well as several imperial advisors.
The grandmaster was handcuffed and kneeled down on the floor.
"Do you know the weight of the offense you committed that day?" Julian angrily asked
"Please! I only did it for the sake of the Fresia empire!" The grandmaster exclaimed
"Is that so?" Erdel smiled
"But your servant told us something entirely different.." Erdel snapped his fingers
Suddenly the room doors opened and a young butler was thrown into the room. He fell on the floor and grunted. His short hair was dark brown and his dark orange colored eyes looked at everyone in terror.
"Tell everyone here what you told us about the grandmaster and his true intentions." Erdel told the butler
"If you say even one inaccurate word you will die." Erdel's purple eyes glowed murderously
"Y-Yes your majesty!" The butler quickly nodded
"The grandmaster planned to have the crown princess prosecuted for the crime of infidelity, and intended to have his daughter marry the crown prince afterwards." The butler revealed to them
"Blasphemy! You would believe a mere servant's words over mine!? I've loyally served the Fresia empire for 8 years!" The grandmaster tried to salvage the situation
"Then let me guarantee his words." Luther walked over to the butler
Luther's eyes turned black, and within an instant, the butler dropped to his knees and screamed in agony as he held his head in his hands.
"Hm.." The most recent memories from the butler flowed into Luther's mind
"It's true." Luther confirmed it and slowly turned his head to face the grandmaster
The grandmaster instantly turned pale.
"Whoever your daughter is, she wouldn't last a day as my wife." Luther said with a sinister chuckle
"Now how should he be punished father?" Luther's voice became ominously deep
"I'm sure you already know, I've already found a competent replacement for him." Erdel replied
"Perfect." Luther was suddenly standing in front of the grandmaster,
Although he assumed he'd have to deal with the grandmaster slowly due to his position, with his father's permission what could anyone else say or do even if they did get rid of the current grandmaster?
No one in the room even saw him move...not even Ivery.
The grandmaster immediately backed up in fear. The ominously overbearing feeling he felt from Luther couldn't even slightly be described. He was death itself! A being that was no longer human...
In a single blink, his face was right in front of Luther's....and he couldn't feel his body anymore
"Who is the suitable replacement for this...father?" Luther held the grandmaster's decapitated head in his hand
"I'll give you his records, we can look over it tomorrow." Erdel sighed
"That's all you're going to do Luther? He interrupted our ceremony." Ivery narrowed her eyes and crossed her arms, not satisfied with how quickly he dealt with the grandmaster
Julian and Cassandra silently agreed, but chose to let the two of them discuss the issue.
"I wasn't finished with him yet my love, but how else do you suppose we deal with him?" Luther turned to look at Ivery
"Put him back together first." Ivery said
The grandmaster could only look around and listen in utter terror.
Luther tossed the grandmaster's head on the floor and as soon as his head thunked on the floor, his body dragged towards his head and reattached themselves.
The grandmaster gradually regained sensations throughout his body and moved them accordingly.
Ivery walked up to the grandmaster and he looked up at her with pure malice in his eyes.
To the grandmaster, she didn't have an ominous aura about her like Luther did, if anything her presence was refreshing compared to his..but it was clear and unshakable of how heavy that presence was nonetheless. Her aura was massive and just as overbearing as Luther's.
Ivery's red eyes glowed, "There's a much better fate for you than a quick death." she smiled
"For starters, someone should make preparations to seize all of his assets." Ivery said
"But of course." Luther agreed and gestured to a nearby servant to relay the message to the imperial officials
"And his daughter.." Ivery said
"M-My daughter is innocent! She has nothing to do with anything!" The grandmaster shouted
"Oh, you should've kept that in mind when you came after me." Ivery looked down at the grandmaster
"She's guilty by relation, and you should know there's no one that would dare go against me on this earth in order to defend you, and if you commit a crime, your entire family goes down with you...but you should know this." Ivery scoffed
"So now, what's your daughter's name?" Ivery asked with a smile
"As if I'd ever tell you!" The grandmaster spit at her feet
Ivery disgustedly kicked him in the face as a response. His newly broken nose bled heavily. She then pressed her heel on the back of his head and forced his face on the floor and the impact caused the floor to crack.
"It's fine." Ivery turned her head and saw Luther's sword in his hand and his black magic overflowing from him, as well as her enraged parents who were ready to decapitate him again and burn his remains until nothing but ash and smoke was left
"He dared to spit at you and you want me to continue to watch in silence?!" Luther laughed at the thought
He walked over to the grandmaster and stabbed his sword into his back. The grandmaster coughed up blood and groaned.
"My son-in-law always knows how to please me." Julian was satisfied
"We should still rip his tongue out for daring to spit at our daughter." Cassandra's blue eyes glowed with intense hatred
"More like feed him alive to the pigs." Caribella added
"Hold on everyone." Ivery sternly said, she didn't want them all to intervene yet
"Make sure you don't kill him yet Luther..." Ivery looked at Luther with a serious expression
"No promises, so hurry and do what you wish to do before I end his miserable life." Luther held back every urge in his body that screamed and shouted for him to kill this man a thousand times over in several hundreds of different ways.
"Tell me your daughter's name." Ivery ordered him to speak with her divine commandment
"Tirea Crestfallen." The grandmaster spoke against his will and gritted his teeth
Ivery raised her hand and a glow of light filled the room. Just when the light died down it took the form of a girl. As the light completely faded, golden mist was all that was left covering the figure and soon enough her features were revealed. A young girl with long light green hair and golden color eyes looked around with confusion.
When it came to someone Ivery never met, she had to hear the name of the person of someone who did know them in order to summon them..
She wore a dark purple ruffled dress, her face caked with makeup, and the scent of her strong perfume filled the air and perforated everyone's nostrils. She was decorated in the finest jewelry from head to toe. She was definitely a sight to behold...
"Father?!" Tirea looked at her father with horror filled eyes, who was on the floor in the most miserable state she'd ever seen him in
"What are you doing to him?!" Tirea screamed
"This is who you wanted to replace my wife with? This?" Luther stood aghast by the person in front of him, he couldn't even stomach the thought of being any closer to her
"He committed a great offense to the royal family and is being rightfully punished, it's only right that you also suffer the consequences too." Ivery told her
Ivery waved her hand down and Tirea was forced down on her knees by an incredible force, shattering the bone.
She screamed and wailed in pain.
"F-Father! W-What's happening?! What went wrong?! You said I'd be the crown princess soon, why is she still in my rightful place!?" Tirea shouted and glared at Ivery as she sweated profusely
"The gall of her." Erdel shook his head
"She truly dares to speak like that?" Cassandra walked over with haste and wasted no time slapping Tirea
Tirea flew sideways from the impact and spit out a few teeth that were knocked loose.
"Mother.." Ivery touched Cassandra's shoulder
Cassandra took a deep breath and stepped back, she walked over to Julian and he wrapped his arms around her to soothe her anger.
"I'll ignore the nonsense you just spouted and get to the point." Ivery wasn't in the mood to go back and forth with someone that had a rattled state of mind
"I had a feeling that you planned this with your father, how else would he know of such rumors about me. Rumors that only circulated at the academy because no one would dare discuss it elsewhere." Ivery glared back at Tirea, she did a bit of investigation herself at the academy
"H-How could you accuse me of all of the people at the academy! Almost everyone knows how loose you've been, I saw the marks on your neck myself!" Tirea slowly sat up, pain shot through her entire body but she still mustered up what little energy she could and shouted
"Oh?" Ivery smiled
Tirea gasped and covered her mouth.
"N-No! I mean I was just one of the many people who saw it!" Tirea tried to salvage the situation
"Tell the truth." Ivery commanded her
"I-I spread the rumor myself that you had committed the crime of infidelity, and I attempted to spread it outside of the academy but no one believed it or didn't dare to discuss it as you said..." Tirea confessed against her will
"I then told my father and together we made the plan to reveal the truth to the public using the chastity rings during your wedding ceremony." Tirea revealed
"Do you even slightly comprehend how much you two embarrassed us to the world?" Ivery's rage was boiling
"Despite there being no crimes of infidelity, something so private between the crown prince and I was outed for all to know!" Ivery raised her hand and Tirea was lifted off the floor and up in the air
"Not only that but you ruined the special day we both waited years for! And for what?! To gain nothing in the end?!" Ivery's eyes glowed and her light blonde hair slowly began to turn red
The lights in the room began the flicker and the windows in the room began to gradually crack.
"You couldn't have possibly thought you would succeed.." The demon blood in Ivery's veins began to flare up and glow underneath her skin
Tirea soon found it hard to breathe and felt immense pressure within her body.
"You'll definitely pay and reap what you sowed" In Ivery's right hand, she manifested her Excaliber
"N-No.." The grandmaster weakly raised his hand and a glowing blue magic sword materialized in the air and shot toward Ivery who had her back turned
Ivery sighed and stepped over to the side, dodging the sword. But the magic sword definitely hit a target...
Blood spilled out from Tirea's mouth and tears left her eyes as she looked at her father who looked back at her with his bloodshot eyes that were filled with shock and horror.
The sword stabbed into the center of her chest, piercing her vital arteries without a doubt.
His vision started to blur and he couldn't fathom what had just happened.
"Well look at that, not only did you attempt to harm me, you hurt your own daughter in the process." Ivery shook her head
While this wasn't her intended punishment, this worked just as well.
Luther stared in silence at the chaos unfolding. He couldn't believe Ivery could be so cruel. He smirked at the thought of her being heavily influenced by him over the years.
"And now because you attempted to harm royalty, you'll have to be publically executed..." Luther kneeled to say to the grandmaster
"You'll now go down in Fresia's history as a criminal who tried to kill the future empress and took his own daughter's life." Luther said as tore his sword out of his back and was slowly absorbed into a bottomless black hole that appeared beneath him
The grandmaster could only focus on Tirea who was released and dropped by Ivery.
She laid motionless on the floor as the glowing magic sword that was lodged in her chest dissipated.
He didn't realize before and it was impossible until now to see that crown princess Inanna was just as monstrous as the crown prince...
"This isn't nearly enough atonement for the weight of the offense you committed on our wedding day. Your life and your offspring's life don't even come close to the importance of that day, so do make up for it in the eternity you'll spend in the darkness after your death...and you'll have a lot of time to reflect, I assure you." Luther said with a devilish smile, black veins began to surface on his skin due to his magic reacting from the anger within him
"But don't think you'll be safe in that dimension...because...inside...something is waiting...just for you...so I hope when your execution ground is prepared, you'll be recognizable when I pull you out..." Luther's deep voice echoed in the darkness
The grandmaster could not imagine a worse punishment than this, he would have rather stayed beheaded by Luther's hands than have to suffer this tragic fate bestowed upon him and Tirea instead.
Just as his vision went black, he saw thousands of eyes, staring at him.
Crown Prince Luther and Crown Princess Inanna...truly were a match made in both heaven and hell...
