4th tester 13

**EP. 13 Target of the Crow - Part 3**

"If you are a skilled trainer, there should be no problem. This is just a minor incident. If you understand my concern for my friend, you will comply with the investigation, right?"

"...Yes."

It was an atmosphere where I couldn't say no. It felt like being trapped in a prison from which I couldn't escape. There were no bars or guards, but there was a force that made it impossible to move. Is this woman actually aware of everything and just waiting for my confession?

"Verdia. The trainer has agreed. May I check a few things?"

"Uh, okay."

Verdia seemed frightened by her friend's stern demeanor. That look in her eyes. For the first time, I thought Ariella was scary. What does she intend to demand? A handstand sex only a skilled trainer can perform? Of course, that's just my imagination.

"Show me your license."

"What?"

Such a reasonable and logical request left me dumbfounded, my mouth hanging open. Ariella extended her pretty hand.

"Trainer's license."

"...."

I was extremely flustered. In reality, there was no such thing, but I had to make her believe there was.

"What do you mean by that...?"

I tried to play dumb. Seeing the change in their expressions, I quickly added,

"What kind of trainer carries that around all the time?"

Phew. That was close. Even if there were such a thing as a trainer's license, no one would carry it around like a business card....

Is there really a world where trainer licenses are issued? Wait, stay calm. She might be testing my reaction.

I narrowly escaped the crisis by sheer luck and smiled.

"Regardless of who reported me, Lady Verdia is very satisfied with my services. The head of the family also trusts me."

"Being under the protection of one of the Four Great Families is the highest honor for a trainer."

Who could the internal informant be? It wasn't hard to figure out. Since coming to this world, there was only one person who disliked me enough to report me to Ariella.

Fiona Arente. 'Did she say I raped her?' No, that can't be it. If they knew I was a rapist, they wouldn't have invited me to this place. Should I rely on Verdia's loose morals and act boldly?

"I will prove that I am an excellent trainer.... How about I make Lady Verdia climax right here?"

"W-what...."

Verdia was flustered.

"What is a climax? It sounds vulgar just hearing it...."

I deliberately spoke vulgarly. I needed to bluff my way through. After all, Verdia had opened up enough to talk about me to Ariella.

This much should be fine! Ariella seemed unaffected by anything I said. I couldn't read any change in her expression. She was cold and ruthless. She wouldn't let personal feelings interfere with her work. If I stayed still, I would slowly be cornered and forced to confess my sins and kneel...!

I took Verdia's hand.

"T-trainer. Not in front of Ariella...."

"Let's show her."

"Wait."

Ariella stopped me.

"Ariella...?"

"There's no need to show."

Verdia looked more relieved than I did.

"Then...."

"Just one question before you go. Is that okay, Trainer?"

"Yes. Ask me anything."

"What is your brand?"

...Brand?

"What is your brand?"

...Brand?

I began to understand a bit about what kind of person she was. She knew how to put on various reactions outwardly, but inside, she was like ice.

A burning vengeance, a brand? That doesn't seem to be it.

"...."

"You wouldn't say you don't have a brand, would you?"

I had no time. Even delaying my answer could arouse suspicion. It was the worst question possible.

I didn't think and just blurted out what came to mind.

"Milf Hun...ter...."

"Huh?"

"I'm a Milf Hunter."

Ariella covered her mouth and started to laugh.

"...."

Damn. I wanted to bash my head against the window and fall out.

Verdia tilted her head and asked,

"What is a milf?"

"Wait a moment. Ahahaha."

"Ariella. Don't laugh alone, tell me too!"

Whatever happens, happens!

"Yes, I am a Milf Hunter!"

A brief silence. Ariella burst out laughing.

"Pfft, ahahaha!"

Although it was embarrassing, seeing Ariella clutching her stomach and laughing made me feel good. So what if it's embarrassing? I could etch those shaking breasts into my eyes a bit longer.

"That was an unexpected answer."

"...."

I should have said "Missy Hunter".... Whether it's a missy or a milf, those are things I love, but the problem was that it came out without any pretense because I didn't have time to dress it up....

"I thought there was a slight possibility...."

Ariella muttered to herself. What was that just now? When Ariella met my eyes, she suddenly bit her lip.

"What?"

"I'll be going now."

"Ariella, let's have a meal together."

"I already ate yesterday, maybe next time."

My eyes naturally followed Ariella's swaying breasts as she got up.

Did I pass her test well?

After she left, I naturally turned my gaze to Verdia.

"Yes?"

Verdia tried to stop her, but Ariella had already lost interest in everything.

"How about having a meal with me?"

"Huh?"

Verdia looked troubled, as if she received an unexpected proposal.

"Oh, having a meal alone is a bit...."

"...."

What? Did she reject me because of her husband? I was momentarily stunned by the sharp rejection.

"I'm sorry."

"No...."

"See you later."

Verdia left. 'What the hell.' Left alone, I felt a strange unease. It felt like something bad was happening somewhere I didn't know about. When Verdia, with whom I had just been intimate, suddenly looked cold, I was more shocked than I expected. Did she only allow her body? How annoying. Feeling twisted, I went back to my room and started planning Verdia's corruption.

'Trainer? So what.' I might be a slave here, but I was doing well in the modern world. I was so popular that rejecting women who wanted to sleep with me was a routine. Once they taste my golden dick, they can't get enough! I realized one day after deep thinking about why I had such talent. Milf hunting is my destiny. Even a high-nosed noblewoman in another world is no exception. If training is lacking, I'll make her unable to live without my dick with a full-force breeding press. It's easy, really. From tomorrow, I'll go all out on Verdia's pussy!

And then....

"One, two!"

"Ugh!"

My back hurt like it was breaking. When I got up, I found myself thrown out like trash.

"What is this.... Why are you doing this?"

They were the guards who had become friendly with me through Verdia's stories.

"Sorry, but it's the head's order. We have no choice."

"You're banished as of today."

"What?!"

I was suddenly hit with a huge shock.

Back in my room, I ate a warm dinner and fell asleep.

I jumped up. Batino wouldn't do this. We shared secret tastes, didn't we?

"Let me talk to the head!"

The guards blocked me with their bodies.

"Give it up! The head won't see you."

"Verdia!"

"You bastard!"

"Ugh!"

I was hit in the stomach and fell.

Why....

"You're just a slave now. Understand? Listen properly while we're treating you like a person."

What happened? When did I step on a landmine? The only person I could think of was Ariella. But she smiled so beautifully....

'Damn.' What was I thinking? She didn't smile because she liked me. Ariella was mocking me from start to finish.

I stood up with a fierce determination.

"Let me talk to Ariella."

"Step back! Come closer, and I'll stab you!"

I stepped on the spear tip hovering near the ground.

"What?!"

"Ugh!"

As the guard who screamed rolled on the ground, I also felt pain from hitting the steel armor with my bare fist. I clenched my bleeding hand and walked.

"Don't stop me. I'll kill you."

"What, what was that just now."

"That's otherworldly martial arts!"

"Martial what?"

"If you don't want to get hit by a 960-degree spinning kick, behave."

Of course, I don't know how to do that. The commotion at the castle entrance attracted more guards from other places.

"Damn."

Looks like I'm screwed. No choice. I pulled out the guard's spear stuck in the ground and took a deep breath. Starting a legend of 17 vs. 1 in another world with milf hunting doesn't sound bad. I pulled out the guard's spear stuck in the ground and took a deep breath. Starting a legend of 17 vs. 1 in another world with milf hunting doesn't sound bad. Could I just give up like this? Only after the situation escalated did I realize how angry I was.

I punched the guard in the chest.

At that moment, I saw Ariella walking down the corridor with a guard. I couldn't mistake that silhouette. The woman with the world's best breasts was passing right in front of me.

"Ariella!"

"...?"

"Stop him!"

I swung the spear to block the guards' approach and quickly ran towards Ariella.

"Ariella, get behind me!"

"No, get behind me! I'll protect you!"

Are they pretending to protect my Ariella? Ariella, who was watching me, sighed deeply.

"Move."

"But."

"I said move. We'll just talk."

"But."

"I said move. We'll just talk."

"...Understood."

The guards couldn't disobey Ariella's order and stepped back. Are they other family soldiers? Can she command them like that?

'Ariella must be special.'

I didn't want to see blood, so I dropped the spear without hesitation and approached.

"What is going on? Why am I being expelled?"

"...."

Damn. It's sad that this is all I can say. Ariella looked at the wall indifferently, then finally looked up at me.

"Have you said everything?"

"Answer me."

"Call me Lady Ariella."

"Why should I...."

"...Lady Ariella."

"Don't take it out on me. You know, I have no interest in someone like you, and I don't hold any grudge."

I knew painfully well that she had no interest in me.

"Understand, this is about qualifications and proof. You have neither the qualifications nor the proof. So you have to pack up and leave."

Her words pierced sharply. Compared to what I had done, I had to admit this was a cheap price to pay.

"But you didn't have to expel me like this."

"I discussed it with Batino last night. There's no turning back."

How could they change their minds so easily? Finally, Ariella's true feelings were revealed.

"You were just lucky, otherworlder."

I felt a surge of defiance. I had no words to return to Ariella, but Verdia! Even if she wouldn't take me in, she might at least mediate this situation. It was better to confront it than to accept being thrown out like trash. Taking a deep breath, I spoke.

"Where is Verdia?"

"She's in the garden. Go see her."

Ariella seemed genuinely uninterested in me. Her indifferent attitude suggested I could struggle all I wanted. 

"Ariella!"

The guards protested in unison.... At least they hadn't forgotten who their master was.

"He might harm Lady Verdia."

"We don't know what nonsense he might spout!"

"Who said you could interfere?"

Ariella silenced the guards' protests in an instant.

"You think Verdia can't be harsh with this man because of her feelings."

"...."

"You don't know your master at all."

I ran past the stunned guards to the garden.

"Verdia!"

The familiar maids pointed and whispered as they saw me. The place that once felt like home now felt like a zoo, and I was the caged animal. What will Verdia do?

"Verdia!"

Verdia, who had been admiring the flowers, looked at me with a troubled expression.

"Verdia. I'm sorry for deceiving you!"

I bowed my head first.

"Please leave quietly."

"I know it's shameless, but let me work here. I'll stay quiet."

"I'm sorry."

Her cold rejection made me swallow hard.

"Verdia, you need me too!"

Unable to control my rising emotions, I placed my hand on her shoulder.

"Kya, kya! Fiona!"

I was struck by Fiona's sword, which came out of nowhere, and blood gushed out.

"Ugh!"

From my shoulder down diagonally.... She must have swung to kill!

"Hic!"

Verdia, not expecting this turn of events, closed her eyes tightly at the sight of the gushing blood. Fiona, on the other hand, looked at me with a dark gaze, as if she had been waiting for this moment, shaking the blood off her sword.

"Get lost without making a scene."

"...Ugh! Don't interfere!"

"Interfere?"

"Verdia hasn't said anything yet."

When Fiona looked back at Verdia, she avoided eye contact, then finally looked me straight in the eye and spoke.

"Mr. Taeyang deceived me and him. This is an undeniable truth."

"...."

"As a woman of the Chartreuse family, I am deeply ashamed of what happened between us."

"Verdia...."

I was devastated. Do I have to accept that it's all over? Verdia continued with a trembling voice.

"It's 'Lady Verdia.' Mr. Taeyang. Don't call me so casually."

My milf sex life was slipping away. I laughed bitterly in my despair.

"You speak more sharply than I thought."

"If you say any more...."

Fiona approached with her blood-stained sword.

"Give me a break. I'm already in pain and about to pass out. You don't want to deal with my corpse, do you?"

"I'd love to see your corpse!"

I dodged the sword, but soon lost strength and fell to my knees.

"Hmph."

Fiona, satisfied with my pathetic state on the verge of death, sheathed her sword.

"Get this man out of Lady Verdia's sight!"

"Yes!"

I was thrown out of the Chartreuse castle again. I ended up with nothing but an injury from showing off. It was a miserable result.

The ground is cold. I know that much....
