ââ¦â
Lawrendâs heart ached after hearing her answer. He beckoned her with his hand. She passed Straw to Elena, who created slime tentacles to carry her, before walking up the throne.
Lawrend patted his lap, and she sat on it.
âDonât you want to spend more time with me?â Lawrend asked.
âMaster, I also want to become strong, but I feel disheartened knowing that it would be impossible for me to catch up to everyone else,â Grape replied.
âYou donât have to catch up to everyone else. Just following behind them is enough. I donât need you to fight in front of me. I want us to fight together. Iâm protecting everyone from the powerful enemies, but I know that you girls are strong enough to protect yourself against people at the same level,â Lawrend said.
âBut I wonât be able to protect you like Sister Aezel,â Grape said.
âYou donât have to.â
âBut I wonât be able to be a powerful bow user like Sister Amene.â
âYou donât have to.â
âNyaaâ¦â
Grapeâs heart softened after hearing his decisive replies. She leaned on his chest and rubbed her cheeks at his face.
Lawrend smiled and rubbed her ears.
She stood up after a while.
âThank you, Master-nyaa! I will ask Sister Amene to take me in as a disciple,â Grape said with a respectful bow.
All of her concerns and self-doubt were washed away. If he was okay with her being weak, does she still need to pressure herself with becoming strong? She knew deepdown that she wanted to spend a long time with him.
Grape walked down the throneâs stairs and took Straw from Elena. Everyone felt happy after hearing that Grape would start practicing the bow under Amene.
âSister Grape, I will teach you everything the village taught me,â Amene said warmly.
âThank you, Sister,â Grape replied happily.
âNao, what do you want to do? I can see that you are a High Mage now. Thatâs a relatively fast improvement,â Lawrend said and nodded his head approvingly.
âMaster, potion making is very fun. I donât know how I improved so fast. It must be because I learned a lot from the way you handled the flame every time you helped me make potions,â Nao answered with a smile.
âVery good. Your responsibility is to make us rich and accumulate wealth. When the time is right, we will leave our children here to fend for themselves,â Lawrend said.
âWhat?â
Everyone of his maids were startled. Even Ember, who was sitting beside him, was shocked.
âI have always planned this. That is why I decided to take this kingdomâs throne. We will leave our descendants here while we travel around the world,â Lawrend said and smiled.
His maids could see the ambition in his eyes.
âMaster, who will take care of them?â Elena asked.
âVerkoli? I think heâs very trustworthy. We will leave them here when they reach the age of five,â Lawrend replied.
âMaster⦠Do you want me to leave a clone?â Elena asked in a more quiet voice.
âHuh!?â
Lawrend stood up from his seat and pulled his head forward.
âIâm a slime. Normally, we run into accidents in the wild and split apart. Thereâs a small chance that we survive that and become two split entities,â Elena explained.
âWait, but that doesnât mean that itâs very dangerous?â
âIâm not a normal slime, Master. The only difference would be that my clone wouldnât have a humanoid shape. She would just be slime with the strength of a High Mage,â Elena said.
âYouâre too OP,â Lawrend said with a wry smile on his face.
âHehehe. Iâm already an Arch Mage. Soon, I will be a Grand Mage too,â Elena revealed.
âGood. Thatâs a better arrangement,â Lawrend replied.
âHow about you, Humility? Donât do anything weird while Iâm away, okay?â Lawrend said as he looked over at her.
âM-Master, what kind of woman do you think I am?â Humility asked bashfully as she fidgeted with her fingers while carrying Courage.
âEhem. I wonât say anything, but behave yourself, okay?â
âYes, of course!â Humility replied by nodding her head repeatedly.
Lawrend knew that she was the yandere type. He doesnât want her to go crazy when he was gone.
âOkay. The first one today would be Humility. Tell Aezel that sheâs next,â Lawrend ordered.
His maids nodded at him.
âAlright. You may all leave. Humility, leave Courage to Elena,â Lawrend ordered.
âYes, Master,â Humility obediently responded.
Soon, the others were gone and only the two of them were left in the room.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Humility immediately stopped being reserved. She walked up the throne speedily before embracing him and sniffing his clothes.
âYour smell⦠Hahh⦠So manly and⦠sweaty,â Humility muttered in a daze.
âStop saying weird things,â Lawrend responded.
âHehehe. I heard from Sister Aleshia that you ravaged that arrogant Sister Ember. Master, why donât you take these pills,â Humility said and opened her hand.
In it were five red pills.
âIs that an aphrodisiac?â
âWho knows? Why donât you try, Master? Itâs very delicious. I asked them to make it sweet,â Humility said and felt his neck with her free hand.
âIf thatâs your wish, I donât mind. Just prepare for it,â Lawrend replied softly.
It would be a while before he returned. It was best to satisfy her demands. She was kinda cranky, after all. She wonât have a business to worry about and occupy her mind like back in the Altro Continent.
âYes! Ravage me, Master⦠R*pe me, hehehehe,â Humility said in an enchanting voice that would suck the soul out of normal men.
âYou remember that time we roleplayed that?â Lawrend asked with a smile.
âYes. This time, donât be reserved. Use these pills and fuck me till I canât think anymore,â Humility said as she licked her lips.
âSure!â
Lawrend grabbed her waist and pulled her up to sit on his lap with her legs to the side. She then put one pill in her mouth before leaning forward and passing it to him through a kiss.
