Chapter 99 - Reunion

Aaris wanted to move his legs, but couldn't unknowingly he just started the views, and nicely he could, 

"You Pervert!!" Zia covered herself with a towel and got out of the pond, 

"Kick him out!" All the girls threw stuff at him and hid behind a tree and glared at him to death, except Bisca "isn't he healthy for a boy" and smiled at him wickedly.

All the girls noticed and flushed red and hid their gazes, "you too!" Jane covered Bisca's eyes and pulled her too.

"Wait…wait…wait, Zia, it isn't what you think! I just came here to bathe, nothing else!" Aaris's legs were shaking, in his mind, he was already being sentenced to death for molesting a girl.

"Save your excuse for later!" Zia's hand was on fire and she marched to Aaris, 

"Zia! Listen to" Aaris tried to take a step back but unfortunately, he stepped on the soap that was thrown before and he slipped forward on Zia.

"What are you-" Zia couldn't even blink as he fell on her, she closed her eyes and they both fell on the ground.

"What the hef-" Aaris also closed his eyes and felt some pulpy and firm between his lips and his face was buried into a soft warm sensation and for a moment he found himself a happy place.

*badump-badump*

'What the hell is this my heart is pounding so hard I could listen to its beat so clearly! I know I am dreaming, now it's time for the good part after that nightmare…' The loud heartbeat reached Aaris's ears and he opened his and closed his lips tightly.

"Hmfh…" a feeble voice came from his under, he opened his eyes with his lips closed, 

Flickering silver hairs on the shallow water were shining under the candle lights, her pale soft skin which was still moist, blue eyes glimmering at me, and then Aaris moved his gaze lower and saw a rosy complexion close to his lips, he realized what that supple cherry-like thing in his mouth was.

"You!!" Zia's voice cracked and her face turned red with mixed anger and flustered, Aaris slowly loosened his lips and her nipple bounced down caressing his lips, that was the moment he fainted in fear…

***

Two hours passed and he opened his eyes again,  he filled his lungs with a good deep yawn thinking everything was part of a beautiful nightmare but realized he can't stretch his arms out, he looked around and found himself bound in chains to the tree close to the pond.

"What the heck! Why am I here? Melvi! Zia-" a knife grazed his cheeks and stuck on the bark.

"Don't you dare utter my name with your filthy mouth, you sex fiend!" Zia was standing in front of him, staring with contempt like she was looking at a pest, while Melvi and Jane had a doubt in their eyes, on the other hand, Bisca was staring at Aaris with a shy smirk.

"What are you-" abruptly all the memories flashed before his eyes and his words got stuck, he looked down and sighed…

"Say your prayer, scum" Zia raised her sword,

"Well then I accept any punishment, please tell me to mentor that I died with no regre-" Aaris lowered his head…

"We ain't going to kill you!" Melvi grabbed Zia from behind and Aaris was looking at her blankly.

"My, my let's forgive him lady Zia, it would be a waste to let such young and nice di-,

Ahem…boy die." Bisca held her hand and lowered it, Zia squinted and went away from there with Melvi.

"We decided to keep you here until your captain arrives, so be a good boy and stay here or else there will be no forgiveness." Jane scowled at him and walked away with Bisca.

'I am sorry Rise, I know you were impatient and wanted to see me, but we had to keep our distance until marriage. 

Well, I am not against such things but you know they were here and…and,' Jane was flushed with pervy thoughts in her mind.

***

Aaris accepted his fate and nodded off shortly,

"Wake up!" A strong punch shot Aaris into the pond, 

"What the fuck? Who was that? Didn't you say you forgive me?" Aaris crawled out and looked at his right, 

"Yes, they may have forgiven you, but I can't let a peeping pervert let go so easily who dared to peep on my students!" Historia was back, and definitely not happy to see Aaris, she cracked her finger and slowly marched to him.

"No, please listen to me first! Captain, it's not what it looks like! Everyone please-" Aaris looked at the rest of them and they just ignored him as if nothing was there, 

"What the…Styrmir! Please stop, captain…I am-" Aaris looked at Styrmir who was standing behind Historia, 

"What? It's my turn after her, how dare you look at their heavenly bodies before me…" Styrmir was crying blood in anguish.

"No…captain….listen to me…captain!!" And at that night nothing but pain befell on him.

***

The night of chaos ended and they all woke up with a good and refreshing nap, except one who was still sleeping outside.

They took Aaris in, he was completely healed by himself but the shock passed him out, nevertheless, he woke up with guilt that made him lower his eyes.

They had breakfast and sat down for a meeting, while Aaris was sitting in the corner.

– Historia - PoV–

Seriously, does he take after him? I never thought he'd do such a thing, I do feel bad for him though…

'Rise, come here." I called him and let him sit beside me. I knew it must have been an accident, I guess I was too hard on him with a sham punishment.

'So let's begin, after hearing everything from both Melvi and Zia, I think Diesswrin I collecting huge funds for war by slave trading, moreover the I and sure that pendant of Loki is being kept inside his mansion.'

"Um- captain, I should have told you sooner but, there are still hundreds, no possibly a thousand of slaves captured by him, and it's only four days reaming for his son's banquet no matter how you look he won't be able to collect enough." Aaris raised his hand and mumbled.

"Perverise is right, we also found out he is actually on arm forces, only 2 out of 5 other dukes, 4 out 9 marques, 12 out of 18 counts and 17 out of 39 viscounts, and 24 out of 57 barons are supporting him, even if he declares war against the king, he would still be crushed in no time," Styrmir spoke,

and I guess they came up with a good nickname for Aaris.

"Who the hell is Pervrise-" Aaris tried to stand up for himself but was cut down by Zia, 

"Also, Perverise rescued this girl named jane she proclaims that was placed to spy on him, some of the noble already doubt Diesswrin." Zia looked at Jane and called her, 

This Jane girl, she is definitely a noble! Her mana isn't the same as the children her age, she is trained thoroughly under professional and honed her skills, I presume.

'Jane, before I start I want to know whether we can trust you or not? Is there any proof that you aren't with Diesswrin?' I glared at her with my aura enraged to make her nervous, 

She flinched and started sweating. She may be strong but not like my students. Normally anyone with weak mana gets vulnerable and nervous, but They are still sitting unbothered by my aura, but something troubles me about Melvi. Why is she acting so different from before?

She isn't behaving timid or nervous like usual, am I suspecting too much?

"Why…" suddenly Jane spoke, 

"Why would I help a guy who killed my brother and father right in front of my eyes!" Jane broke into tears and her maid Bisca hugged her from behind, 

'I am sorry for being rude but-' 

"I know, it is a quest and an important mission, I would be more cautious than you if it was at your place, but believe me, I am no ally of that bastard Diesswrin! He is a monster in the human hide! 

I spied on him on my own accord, however, to be honest, no one in the country doubts Diesswrin, only my father was the one who suspected him, but before he could do anything, he killed him!" Jane wiped her tears and huffed holding her grief back.

She is a strong girl, I smiled at her and sighed, 

'Alright, I have a little trust in you.' 

She suddenly smiled and her smile was so cute and beautiful, I want to hug her!! I can't now, this is a serious mission, I need to hold back.

'Ahem then, I have a few questions for you then Jane, it might tick some bad memories but please be strong and answer me, I am afraid I won't take no for an answer.' I controlled my emotions and glared at her.

"How rude-" her maid snapped but Jane held her back, 

"I know what you want to know…"
