Coupled with the beautiful Knights Aike and Ailu hiding on the bed, there were six beauties gathered in this room. Because Aike and Ailu were in completely bare states with only red leather collars, these wicked props, around their snowy white necks, they were too embarrassed to come out and meet these beauties. They used quilts to cover their entire bodies and eavesdropped on the conversations behind the heavy curtains.
“These treasures are not bad. I want to buy this, Mister Clyde. Do you have a magic storage card? I will transfer you money; you don’t need to return the change.”
“I like this exotic style. Mister Clyde, I want that idol. I don’t have sufficient funds in my hands. Can I use refined metals or magical medicaments in exchange? I also have explosive medicaments.”
“Eh, Sophie, Rebecca, slow down you two. No need to be so hasty; no one will rob you two.”
Eldest Miss Sophie and Second Miss Rebecca were actually well-off, unintentionally showing a wealthy woman’s aura. After all, they were Earl Harrison’s biological daughters, different from Third Miss Vignia. As for Princess Halisi, she usually did good deeds, so all her money subsidized impoverished people; thus, she was momentarily unable to gather the funds; otherwise, she would not be poorer than these two ladies.
Although Clyde was merely pretending to be a merchant, since business had arrived right in front of his door, he didn’t refuse. Sophie and Rebecca didn’t bargain either, belonging to the type that accepted quoted prices. Princess Halisi and Vignia quietly watched from one side, somewhat embarrassed. They still wore those gem series undergarments. Even though they had already worn them for quite a while, they still had not adapted to that style.
“You two can keep looking. I have a matter to deal with. Oh, that’s right. These two gift boxes are for you two. If there is anything you two don’t understand, just ask Vignia and Princess Halisi. This is just an extra gift, so there’s no need to pay any additional money.”
“Mister Clyde, then we won’t be polite. We have never seen a treasure merchant do business like you. Those merchants never gave us extra gifts when we bought things before.”
“It’s fine. Just a little kindness, nothing more. Well, I’ll leave to deal with a small matter first. You all can slowly take a look around here. If you all fancy anything, you can take them. There’s no need to wait for my return. We can settle accounts later.”
“Eh, isn’t that…”
Clyde got up and left, gifting these two gift boxes before bidding farewell. Upon seeing the designs of the gift boxes, Vignia and Halisi’s complexions instantly reddened. Weren’t they very similar to those gift boxes containing the gem undergarments Clyde had gifted them before? Could it be that that treasure merchant had a mine in his house, gifting gems as he pleased? When gifting them to others, he didn’t even bat his eyelids; he simply didn’t hesitate at all.
Sophie and Rebecca directly opened their gift boxes, and upon seeing the gem series undergarments inside, their expressions were no different from Princess Halisi and Miss Vigina’s at that time. The revealing, appeal styles blew their minds away. Sophie’s set was made with valuable yellow life gems, longed for by priests, and rarely found in markets, but even most of those were very small. These undergarments made with so many yellow gems would surprise even the experienced and knowledgeable Light Church’s saintesses.
Rebecca’s set was made with coffee brown gems, legendary earth gems with rich rock-attributed magic elements. It could withstand explosions and shockwaves. For alchemists, it was a treasure that could mitigate the dangers of explosions triggered after the failures of various experiments.
“Mister Clyde is actually so considerate. We cannot disappoint his good intentions.”
“Sophie, Rebecca, are you two really going to wear this kind of shame… this kind of undergarment?”
Sophie and Rebecca’s adaptability was greater than Vignia and Halisi’s; they quickly accepted these revealing undergarments and immediately started to undress themselves. Vignia and Halisi who stood at one side hesitated about whether to step forward to tell them the correct way to wear them. Princess Halisi walked to the door and gently locked it so as to avoid anyone accidentally coming in. When trying on this kind of undergarment, it was necessary to take precautions.
“That’s fine, no one can see what girls wear inside. Vignia, did you also receive a similar gift box? Your complexion is so red.”
“No… no, I didn’t. I didn’t. Sophie, you… can’t speak carelessly.”
“Oh, then let me check. Rebecca, help me.”
“What do you two want to do? Don’t come! Big Sister Halisi, help…”
Vignia was pushed down on the sofa by Sophie and Rebecca, and her conservative formal evening wear quickly taken off. By the time Halisi responded, Vignia had already been stripped to her appealing red gem undergarments. Afterward, Sophie and Rebecca quarreled and fought noisily with Vignia while wearing their own gem series undergarments.
Because the other parties were boisterously playing sisters,, Princess Halisi was unable to intervene and could only watch from one side. But, beyond her imagination, after Sophie and Rebecca finished changing, they looked at Halisi with strange gazes as if thinking of something profound. Princess Halisi felt their strange gazes were very unnatural and subconsciously wanted to turn around and run away. However, before she could, Sophie and Rebecca caught her left and right shoulders, not letting her run away.
“You two… what do you two want to do? I… I have a matter! I will leave first; I will not disturb the reminiscing of you sisters.”
“Princess Halisi, what are you wearing? Let us take a look.”
“Princess Halisi, why are you embarrassed? Only you are still wearing formal evening wear here. It’s too unfair!”
“Wait, I truly have a matter! Don’t act recklessly, Vignia! How come even you are… Wait…”
“Princess Halisi, I’ve offended you!”
Princess Halisi who had attempted to run away was pulled onto the big sofa by the three ladies and thoroughly experienced this shameful activity. After a little while, all the girls’ clothing was scattered over the floor. A few beauties in revealing series gem undergarments boisterously played on the sofa. That scene appeared unusually hot, which could easily lure other people to commit a crime.
Princess Halisi and the others seemed to have forgotten that this was a man’s room since they had blind trust in Clyde. If this room was another man’s, and he saw such unguarded state beauties when he returned, then he would absolutely do some wierd matters and have various bold ideas.
At this moment, Clyde had already left the room and was pacing up and down the corridor. The Earl’s birthday banquet was the day after tomorrow, but according to Clyde’s provisional decision, he planned to take action in advance. According to the information he had gathered in these past few days at Earl Harrison’s Residence, Earl Harrison had given order to enforce martial law in the entire city and close all of Atad’s city gates on that day. Carrying out a surprise attack at that time, not to mention huge losses, the chance of victory was low.
According to the plan, Jenny would lead an assassination team to raid Earl Harrison’s residence tonight. At that time, Clyde had to coordinate with them from here. Young Master Hal would also trigger the Undead calamity during this period of time. Both sides would be in a great rush, without enough time to deal with Clyde. As for Clyde setting up a restriction barrier around that wicked basement’s entrance, Hal was still entirely unaware of it. After leaving last time, he had yet to return to the basement.
“Eh, Princess Verly, did you also come for the night views? The moonlight is very beautiful tonight.”
“This mister, you are good at joking. There is no moon in the sky. How can there be moonlight?”
In the corridor, Clyde unexpectedly met Sacred Moon Knight Verly standing at one side of the corridor. This beautiful silver-haired Dragon Knight carefully examined the night sky. Clyde’s method of striking up conversation was unsuccessful. His entire attention was focused on Verly’s beautiful looks, so he didn’t notice that the sky was unusually dark tonight. Not to mention the moon, even the stars couldn’t be seen. Fortunately, Verly treated it as if Clyde was joking and didn’t think deeply about it, continuing to on the sky.
Clyde followed Verly’s line of sight and discovered that something was wrong. There was neither moon nor stars. Although this was nothing too strange, there was also a dull, blue-colored lightning bolt streaking across the sky, but thunder couldn’t be heard. Upon careful observation, there seemed to be a huge, twisted blurred face in the dark night sky, grimacing with a painful expression especially clear under the illumination of the lightning’s radiance.
This didn’t resemble the signs of an Undead calamity but rather the signs of an evil spirit descending from the sky. Descending from the sky was a common unique skill of the Demon Race. Those nations in the inner parts of Ximengsi Continent didn’t have many chances to see the Demon Race, so they were unfamiliar with this magic. Sacred Moon Knight Verly, however, was different: she had fought with the Demon Race throughout the years, so she was quite familiar with this.
“That crazy girl, didn’t I just killed a few of her pets? Chasing me to this place… I’m sorry. This mister, please quickly return to your room. I have a small matter to deal with.”
“Eh, you can keep yourself busy. I will not disturb you.”
After learning that someone from Demon Race had come to look for trouble with Verly, Clyde hesitated for a short while, but he still said nothing and pretended to leave. Verly didn’t immediately summon her dragon mount but rather slowly levitated, using flight magic to soar to the sky to face the demon who had chased her to this place. If she summoned her flying dragon in Earl Harrison’s residence, she feared destroying the structure.
Clyde quietly returned to another position and conveniently sent “proceed with the plan” via magic communication to Jenny who was leading the assassin team. The resentment between the Demon Race and Verly was not within his plans, but it also didn’t affect his campaign against Atad.
