Chapter 34: 34

“Have you calmed down?” Daniel caressed her cheeks with their loving eyes.

“Mm” Megan answered with a shy voice and now that her mind has calmed down, she felt at peace by having him at her side.

“Yey! I now have a new sister!” Fresia jumped in while hugging her new sister whom she had accepted with all of her heart.

“Easy there Fresia, it’ll take time for her to accept her sisters” He chuckled seeing how Megan was asking him for help with teary eyes.

“Master…can I be your wife too?” Fresia asked as she fidgeted with her fingers.

“?” His eyebrows were lifted as though it was an obvious question she asked.

“Why not?” He said.

“But our marriage will be on a different date as the ceremony holds importance. It would be rude if we had the same wedding as Megan. After all, it will be her day to enjoy”

“Yes, master” Fresia agreed without any refusal and Megan didn’t voice her complaints.

After all, being given her newly found powers, she now realizes just what kind of being her husband is..𝗰𝗼𝗺

‘I will never regret being your wife nor will I be jealous of my future sisters. You’re the most benevolent and powerful man I have ever seen’

Her thoughts were becoming more fanatic and she was currently trying to recall every woman that she met and planning to bring them to her husband’s harem.

“Great Master, though that was the supreme phenomenon I have ever seen, it seems like I have yet to explain the rules regarding the matter of handing over a nobility,” Viston said.

“What do you mean?” He questioned.

“The phenomenon of the light just now was out of my expectation and it alarmed the other noble families in the city…and great master, forgive me as I never mention that the handover of nobility to a…commoner is against the rule of the Imperial Family in the Empire” Viston apologized.

“The Empress Lilith controls the Xebec Continent, and breaking this custom is the same as disrespecting the Imperial Family”

Viston trembled in fear as he was afraid and scared that he would misunderstand him for not telling him the consequences.

“I see…so a commoner is not allowed to be nobility, then, how’s the situation now? Am I noble or not now?” He asked.

“There’s no doubt that the Great Master is now a noble, however, you have yet to be recognized by the Empress to be officially classified as a Noble” Viston explained further.

“Well if it’s just that I’m not afraid of them coming at me. However, if the custom were to be broken, doesn’t that mean you guys will be targeted as well?”

“By the law, yes, all of the family and clan of Jazz would be targeted” He showed a smile where he didn’t regret his decision.

“I see. You don’t have to be worried about this as I’ll be handling it” Daniel claimed.

“If it’s the great master, then, I don’t have to be worried about it” Viston was confident that nothing could threaten Daniel, hence, he wasn’t worried.

“Then, if it’s nothing else I will take my leave first” Daniel announced.

“Darling…you’re already leaving?” Even though it’s only been less than an hour since she met Daniel, Megan had fallen in love deeply and she didn’t want him to leave.

“I’m just looking and recruiting for more disciples, and in the meantime, try to get used to your newfound powers and I’ll return a few days later to bring you to our sect” He finds her reaction cute and he couldn’t help but to kiss her.

“Darling…” Megan’s eyes had some pinkish in them as they separate their lips and her heartbeat was in chaos.

“Then I’ll be waiting for you darling,” She said as she looked forward to the future with her husband and also master.

“Don’t worry. It won’t take long” He smiled and said and afterward, they left.

Megan could watch his back with thousands of love and after she couldn’t see their silhouette, her father spoke.

“Megan, it seems like the city will be restless for a few days and I have a feeling that a great change will be about to unfold,” Viston said.

“I agree Father, and we should visit the Tristan family to discuss an alliance and I doubt that there would still be the 10 Noble Families” Megan pointed out.

“Hmmm…you’re right. I think I should arrange a meeting with them. Moreover, with the phenomenon just now, I doubt the noble families could stay silent” Viston said.

On the other hand, once Daniel and Fresia have left, they didn’t make their way toward their next disciple recruitment, but rather, Daniel stopped walking.

“I didn’t think about this and maybe I was rushing, but do you want me to do something about your situation Fresia?” Daniel had just remembered her situation, and he didn’t want to leave her suffering alone.

“…” Fresia stopped walking and there was a trace of pain that couldn’t be described in words.

He didn’t rush her and let her take her time in revealing and after minutes of waiting, she finally disclosed her true feelings.

“Master…I just wish to know why they betrayed me” She said while clenching her fist.

“I understand and though there are lots of things that I want to do with you, your well-being is what I care about the most” Noticing her current unstable mentality, he wrapped his arms around her and embraced her body.

Surprised by the unexpected warm hug, Fresia closed her eyes and enjoyed the warmth. It felt like under his care, there was nothing in this world that could threaten her and after a couple of minutes, she made up her mind.

“Master…I think it’s time I settle the problems that have been eating my mind away. For the past few months, I’ve been running away and closing all of my exposure to the outside world, but now, it’s time for me to decide and move on” She said as she lay her head against his chest.

“Then…do you need my help? If you want to confront your fears, I don’t mind giving you a hand. Whoever hurt you no matter the reason and cause, I would pay back a million folds” He declared.

He has no idea what kind of situation his lover is going through. But being betrayed by your family and clan, he couldn’t imagine how much pain she was going through.

For the first time in her life, Fresia had felt what’s like to rely on someone and the feeling of having someone dependable had made her emotional.

She wanted to let her tears out, but now was not the time she believed.
