GUCHU… GUCHU… Verdia caressed his broad, muscular chest with her hands while her butt moved up and down, devouring his d*ck.
As if not wanting to be outdone by her, Reinhardt kissed her beautiful neck and played with her ample breasts.
"Haaah~… Annngh~… Nn" Verdia responded with her moans.
As he licked her neck, the backside of her ears, he could taste the sweet fruity taste of the soap that she used to bathe with.
"Your bouncy t*ts feel just right in my hands, they are magnificent" Reinhardt gave his honest reply. Her breasts were so soft that it felt like pudding.
"An.. Haagh~.. Kuhhh♥" Maybe because the sweet talk along with the thrusts of his dick hitting deep into her again and again was too much, Verdia climaxed for the umpteenth time.
GLOP… She powerlessly fell into his chest with his dick still inside her. A slurry of juices fell, staining the bed sheet. Her closed eyes carried a happy expression.
Although her body had worked up quite a sweat and her cheeks still looked red, the fever had left her body. No far from it, Reinhardt's treatment had cured all of her hidden illness and pain that she felt in all these years were all gone.
SCHLK… Reinhardt slowly moved his hips. Verdia had finished, but it did not mean that he was done. No, far from done, he had loads and loads of energy waiting to be unloaded now that the dragon had been awakened.
He grabbed Verdia's ass and started drilling his dick deep into her.
"Ah~… Ahnnunnn♥" Every time that he unloaded his thick c*um, she would erupt with loud moans and her body would spasm with uncontrollable pleasure that she had never felt before.
Slowly and slowly, Verdia was brought to the epitome of happiness. With [Endless Ardor] the two kept seeking the pleasure of each other, filling the room and the bed sheet with their slurry.
Verdia slept on top with Reinhardt underneath her, sucking her ample breasts. A lot of time must have passed while they were lost in passion as the servants who were waiting outside became worried and knocked on the door.
"My lord, is the madam alright?" a maid called out.
A minute or two after the door opened and Reinhardt walked out. The moment he came out, a powerful odour along with heat radiated out of the room.
"The Duchess is sleeping, I have administered the treatment, she will be fine after a while. Wait outside for her to come out."
After instructing the servant,s Reinhardt left. Now that he was not at the mercy of his divine trait, he could think rationally again, and with that, a flurry of emotions that weighed down on his conscience, assaulted him.
He had done it? He broke a pure relationship that he shouldn't have. Verdia was his step mother, how can he? What was he supposed to do in this situation? Verdia clearly looked like she wanted this… In that situation, did he even have another choice?
"This damned Divine Trait [Endless Ardor]."
Why and for what reason did the god give him this trait? Did he give it because he thought that it would help him in his future endeavours?
No matter the reason, it caused him to do something that he would not have done otherwise. First it was the married woman Anastasia, and now it was his own stepmother. He feared what would happen in the future.
That said, agonised as he much, there is no way to take back what has been done. He could only move forward.
.
Around the evening, Arthur and the rest of the order that went with him returned and together they ate the dinner prepared by the servants.
Although they all heard about Verdia's sudden fever and how Reinhardt treated her, no one suspected anything. They were all glad that the duchess was alright.
"The madam was screaming in pain so much, I tell you. You could hear her yell even from outside. It must have been a very serious fever. Thankfully, Lord Reinhardt was there. Despite being so busy, he took long hours of his time to heal her."
The maids discussed in excitement. Their respect for Reinhardt increasing even further.
Of course, that's a Divine Paladin for you. Other than the Saintess, the Commander possesses the greatest healing power in the entire kingdom. Treating a fever is nothing," a squire who grew up listening to Reinhardt's countless stories of valor, interjected.
"Hmph, what do you know, Lady Verdia's fever was serious, and even Lord Reinhardt had to stay inside the room for several hours to heal her. We all saw how drenched in sweat he was when he came out"...
"He must have had to exert himself a great deal to heal her. Even then, the fact that he didn't care about anything else and focused on her treatment until he was like that, makes him even cooler in our eyes".
Hearing the maids fanatical reply, the squire simply shrugged his shoulder as if he didn't want to bicker over it.

The next day, at the break of dawn, fireworks shot through the sky. The entire capital woke early and was hustling and bustling with activity.
Every street and corner of the capital was decorated, and a crowd unlike any usual day gathered inside the capital. Today was the day of the Magic Knight Entrance Ceremony, and the entire kingdom had its eyes on it.
Those who had the money came to the capital to witness this epic event. Others waited in their own city, watching the video transmission through a magic crystal.
Everyone was eager to see the new rising talents of their kingdom; however, most of them wanted to see the seven commanders of the seven great knight orders that protected their kingdom.
In the northern part of the city, there was a huge coliseum specifically built to hold the magic knight entrance exam. A large crowd gathered inside the coliseum on this day.
