“So, it failed?” Camilla opened the canned soft drinks she’s holding and poured it into a glass. “Well, I never expected Harold Owen to succeed at all. If only the great master did not die abruptly, there would be no Mirella that could go against our plans. On second thought, it’s also hard to face off with that giant–I mean, the great master.” The butler, who’s been listening to all of Camilla’s rants and thoughts, turned off the lights and closed the fridge. Then he walked to Camilla and pulled the woman by her waist. “But since I did what you told me, it's only correct for me to get my reward,” the butler told Camilla before he kissed Camilla’s neck, down to the angle of her shoulders, putting the hair strands covering part of her face to the back of Camilla’s ear. “Now, stop chugging down that carbonated drink like an expensive wine, we have a long night ahead of us…” he added as he pulled the middle-aged lady to her room. Like what the butler intended, they shared intima

Chapter 43When the date of the party arrived, Matthias went to the uptown village where the house of Camilla Blanc was located in Shian.It is where the party was addressed so, he came completely ready to dominate the scene with his luxurious attire but when he came inside the reception hall, letting the guards open the door for him, his get up looked just like any other everyday clothes.Luxury and extravagance is an understatement to describe the scene in front of him.First of all, the guests are drinking from purply - almost crystal glasses that he knows would fetch a million per piece. “Almira’s crystal,” Matthias muttered when he remembered the name of the material that was named after its discoverer. From the recent research papers published about Almira’s glass, it was detailed that the crystal is rarer than the known Taaffeite.“Fancy seeing you here,” a lady in her 40s, with silvery gray hair greeted Matthias.She raised the glass she’s holding and when one of the servers

Three days after Matthias’ disastrous meeting with Camilla, Clementine finds himself worrying about Matthias’ head.“Hey! What made you think that you can declare a war against Camilla that way? I told you to help me with my problem and not aggravate it. Ah!” Clementine just complained since he can’t do anything more after Matthias made that grand introduction to Camilla.“And you made me kill her men, what will you do if she suddenly– Wait! On second thought, Camilla doesn’t care about those expendables. But do you think like that as well?”Matthias, who keeps hearing Clementine rants, placed a pair of earbuds in his ears. He’s already fed up hearing the same thing over and over again for the past few days.“Stop taking the escape route again,” Clementine chided him and pulled out the cushions placed in Matthias’ ears.“I wanna sleep now.”Clementine laughed at Matthias sudden change in mood. “Ha, Sir…” he said, controlling his anger and brain not to punch Matthias out of reflex. “T

After announcing that he'll find Matthias a new master, Clementine brought Matthias to the casino."You said you'll give me another master but we're just here at the casino," Matthias complained as he scratched his heels that had been itching to get out of the place."You just need to wait, he'll come back here at the promised date that he said."That's when Matthias realized that the master Clementine was talking about was Larsen. How can he receive teaching from someone who looks younger than him.But it seems like his question can be read from his face because Clementine offered an answer right away."It's because you look more naive than a high school boy, Sir," Clementine said. "Sometimes you look like the part — a rich dominant boss — but that's just acting on your part, isn't it? With a Reagan as your mentor, changing your attitude generally won't be that hard a feat. I apologize that, this, Clementine can only teach you how to protect yourself properly."Matthias looked deepl

The question that wasn’t able to be answered by Mirella is an inquiry about Mira Lanoyer which Matthias found very intriguing since even though not everything can be accessed by his AI, information about someone should have shown results although incomplete.“Who is Mira Lanoyer?” he asked Larsen with a serious face.Larsen smiled at Matthias’ interest. However, he used this chance to draw out more amusement from them.“I’ll tell you if you beat me,” Larsen challenged. “Anyway, do you want me to define what’s good and what’s bad? That’s self explanatory though.”The shuffling of the cards were heard again in the room as Matthias distributed the cards once more in between him, Larsen– and Clementine and Lorena, who joined them from the third game onwards.“But can you really beat me?” Larsen provoked while not looking at the cards laid in front of him. “Of course I will,” Matthias answered despite being on the losing streak since earlier.“Really?” Larsen made sure, making Matthias lo
