555 The Ministers' Thoughts
Vaan assaulted the side of Astoria's smooth, vulnerable neck with his lips, teeth, and tongue.
A combination of soft nibbles, licks, and kisses caused electrifying, chilling, and cool, pleasant sensations to race along Astoria's skin and through her body. They were like waves that repeatedly battered against the wall, weakening her will to resist alarmingly.
Astoria thought she had already experienced everything about the pleasure between men and women.
However, she soon realized it was foolish of her to have thought that when she had only seen the tip of the iceberg. It was clear that Vaan had not shown her all of his skills in the art of pleasuring.
Astoria's body couldn't help but shudder under Vaan's skillful stimulation; her expression revealed a hint of fear for the unknown but also a greater anticipation.
She was willing to explore new things.
Astoria wrapped her arms around Vaan's neck and pulled his head down, burrowing it between her twin peaks to disrupt his rhythm and regain her control.
"You can do anything to me, but not here... Ahh~!"
Astoria gave a startled cry when Vaan changed his target of assault to her white rabbits.
Vaan rubbed his face between the two bouncy mountains roughly like a rabid dog chewing out his prey. With a few fine touches and bites here and there, he almost made Astoria's will cave in immediately as she lost all her strength.
Shortly after, he lifted his head and grinned at her.
"Did you know you are playing with fire?" Vaan asked.
Astoria's heart palpitated.
Without waiting for her reply, Vaan swept Astoria off her feet and carried her out of the study room in his arms, heading back to their bedroom.
"Y-Your Divinity, do you need anything?" a palace maid stuttered in the corridor, doing her best to remain tactful, but her eyes kept wandering between the two figures.
The palace maid's imagination immediately ran wild as she recalled the Imperial Princess's moans last night.
It caused her to blush heavily.
However, Vaan took no notice of it, or rather, he couldn't care less about what the palace maid knew and thought.
"Send ten jugs of fresh water to our room," Vaan ordered, walking off without stopping.
Among his women, Astoria was the one that could make him ejaculate the fastest. And thanks to his powerful body, each shot was not a small load. As a result, it was easy for him to dry out from repeated climaxes.
However, suppressing his climax through tempering and potions wasn't the only solution to last longer in bed. In fact, there was an even simpler solution - replenishing his lost bodily fluids with drinking water.
He wasn't fond of small breaks during the act, but it was indeed necessary until his body was tempered to a certain level.
After all, his body wasn't made of infinite fluids.
Nevertheless, shortly after Vaan reached the bedroom and had the ten jugs of fresh water delivered to him, the doors to the bedroom were shut tight, followed by Astoria's continuous cry of sheer bliss and euphoria.
The session went on from day to night and night to day.
Vaan made sure to fully satisfy Astoria before leaving for other matters. As such, he applied fourth-level pleasure and had her mind ascend into a new realm of heavenly bliss, causing her to reach climax many times more than him.
In the end, Vaan hardly required ten jugs of fresh water to replenish his bodily fluids. One jug was more than enough.
That day and night, Astoria learned what it was like when Vaan was rough and fierce in bed. It was wild but even more exciting. Only such battles were more suited for her. It truly exhausted her in both mind and body, but that was exactly what she wanted.
It allowed her a deeper state of relaxation.
The following morning, Minister Mistral and the other official ministers gathered in the Great Hall for an early meeting. They all wore awkward smiles when they glanced at each other.
When they left the palace yesterday, they heard rumors of the Sun God and Imperial Princess going at it again. And when they returned to the palace the following day, it was still going on.
For an instant, they thought they had stepped into a brothel when they heard the palace servants quietly gossiping about it.
An awkward silence filled the Great Hall as the ministers had similar thoughts.
The gossip among the palace servants had made them curious.
They had overheard multiple palace servants boldly expressing their desires and dreams to experience such a night with the Sun God based on the joy they heard from the Imperial Princess's moans.
Supposedly, the palace maids all had to touch themselves that night to calm themselves down.
"It seems His Divinity doesn't just have godly power, but also godly skills in the art of pleasuring," the Minister of Internal Affairs commented while stroking his white beard with a thoughtful look, causing the other ministers to look at him with signs of disapproval.
They feared the Minister of Internal Affairs would speak ill of the Sun God and cause the Sun God's wrath to descend upon them.
However, their concerns were unfounded. The Minister of Internal Affairs only had praises for the Sun God as he considered his interests.
"At least we know His Divinity isn't someone who frowns on these mortal acts. That's good. If Her Imperial Highness could bear His Divinity's seed and give birth to a son, the country would have a divine heir," the Minister of Internal Affairs continued.
"However, it'll be even better if His Divinity could spread even more of his seed and have many offspring. His Divinity's children will not be ordinary and will become the force that brings this country greater prosperity and glory."
"Hm, I have a daughter who has just come of age. She has also inherited her mother's witch talent and beauty. I wonder if His Divinity will also fancy her?" the Minister of Internal Affairs wondered, thinking of introducing his daughter to the Sun God.
As a result, he received several glances of speechlessness.
Minister Mistral thought the Minister of Internal Affairs was shameless for wanting to use his daughter as a bargaining chip to further his position.
