-891- Irresistible temptation

When Rozen came to his senses, he found himself not on the battlefield but inside a luxurious carriage.

Everywhere was adorned with red decorations.

The place was covered in red blankets.

Beneath his feet was a soft carpet.

Behind him was a warm cushion.

And what he sat on was not just a seat but a comfortable chair that resembled a bed.

In the air of this carriage, there was an irresistible fragrance spreading.

"This is..."

Rozen intended to stand up.

However, for some reason, Rozen found himself completely unable to move.

It wasn't due to being bound or restrained; rather, it was as if his body instinctively resisted any attempt to leave this place.

"What's going on?"

Rozen felt bewildered.

The next moment...

"Rest assured, this is a good thing."

A sweet and mellow voice appeared next to Rozen, entering his ears.

Only then did Rozen realize that someone had been sitting next to him all along, besides Medb, who else could it be?

"Welcome to my carriage, Master of Chaldea."

Medb, without the hostility she had shown earlier, spoke with the innocence of an affectionate girl, her rosy cheeks emphasizing her friendliness.

"Only males chosen by me are invited here. They are all rare and exceptional warriors, and now, you have become one of them."

Medb said this with a charming smile, making it hard to believe that her way of inviting someone was forcibly dragging them into this place.

(I really let my guard down...)

Rozen thought to himself.

Even though he had activated his Spirit Vision, Heaven's Eye, and Mind's Eye to their fullest, he still fell for Medb's trick, being forcefully dragged into this place. It was a major lapse.

Even with the divine-level Heaven's Eye power that Rozen possessed, Medb still succeeded.

"In that instant, I used the Future Sight ability of a male who used to be my husband to see through all your actions from now on. So, you cannot escape my invitation, you know?"

Medb explained happily.

As she spoke, Medb pressed her body against Rozen, even snuggling into him.

The soft, smooth, delightful sensation, coupled with the perfect body temperature, all enveloped Rozen.

Rozen wanted to pull away, yet he found himself utterly unable to resist it all.

Medb extended one hand and traced her fingers on Rozen's chest.

"Don't waste your energy. Since you've already come in, until you finish what needs to be done, you absolutely can't leave here."

Medb proudly and happily informed Rozen.

"Because this is my Reality Marble."

—Reality Marble.

It's a grand magic that can actualize one's mental landscape, replace oneself with the world, erode reality, substitute it with one's mental landscape, and create a personal small world.

In other words, it's a magic that can create a personal world for oneself.

Such magic was originally supposed to be something only spirits and demons could use.

After all, it's a grand magic capable of changing the world, almost a miracle closest to "Magecraft," and even the highest-ranked magus might not be able to use it. Even mages of the divine era, like the Caster Medea or Cu Chulainn, would be unable to use it.

Now, Medb informed Rozen that the carriage's chamber had turned into a Reality Marble. Therefore, unless there's a power to break the world, it's impossible to leave.

And indeed, that was the case.

"You can only leave here after completing what I want to do, you know?"

Medb declared this to Rozen with a sweet smile.

As for what Medb wanted to accomplish, did it really need to be said?

"Here, drink this."

Medb handed a cup of wine to Rozen.

It was a cup filled with golden honey-colored mead.

From this cup of mead emanated an irresistible fragrance.

Rozen understood.

"The origin of the fragrance I've been smelling since earlier is this?"

Exactly.

The aroma filling the entire chamber came from this cup of wine.

And it was this cup of wine that made Rozen lose all resistance.

"Please, drink it~~~?"

Medb presented this tempting cup of honey mead to Rozen with a smile that shook the heart.

Rozen knew that once he drank this cup of wine, he would be finished.

—⟨My Red Mead⟩.

This was another Noble Phantasm of Medb.

Moreover, it was a C-rank anti-army Noble Phantasm.

It was a torrent of golden honey with a charming legend. As long as Medb handed this cup of wine to someone with a smile and words, regardless of who it was, their minds would be seized by this cup of wine.

It, like Medb's chariot, possesses a special attack against males.

Therefore, unless one is female, they will be charmed by this cup of wine and lose all resistance.

Rozen is currently in this state.

Despite knowing that the woman offering him the wine is his enemy and aware that drinking it would lead to complete enchantment, making him Medb's possession, he still can't resist the allure of the wine.

If Gyokuto were present, with its sensing ability, warning function, and strengthened Mind's Eye, Rozen might not have been dragged into this chariot even with Medb's use of future sight.

Now without Gyokuto, Rozen's strength has already decreased, and his resistance to Medb's enchanting Noble Phantasm approaches zero.

With this situation...

"After drinking it, you'll completely become mine."

Medb, with a tone that combines purity and seductiveness, as if challenging the inner limits of a man, slightly opened her vermilion lips and breathed out a fragrance toward Rozen's face.

"Then, let's do some joyful things together, shall we?"

With such words and seduction, any man would find it impossible to refuse. Rozen's inner defenses are slowly collapsing, and he raises one hand to grasp the cup in front of him.
