Chapter 112: Shameless Women (III)

"If you can really help me succeed then I don't mind giving you my body for a night of pleasure." Krista Dragoon said slowly, shocking her little sister, Leila Dragoon.

Even Angela and Evie raised their eyebrow at Krista Dragoon's word.

Meanwhile, when Zen heard Krista Dragoon's resolution, he was only slightly surprised.

'Considering how she is still letting me touch her feet and have no intention of backing down, I already figured out she would say this.'

Zen sighs inwardly when circumstances force a woman to even offer her own body to survive.

Zen continued to touch Krista Dragoon's feet without replying to her which caused her to be nervous.

If she was still rejected after going this far then she has truly lost all shame and alerted her enemy.

A few moments passed before Zen smiled at Krista Dragoon, "Your proposal is tempting but… I refused.

Krista Dragoon turned pale and she was clenching her fist for being harshly rejected as she tried to move her feet away from his hand.

There was no point in letting him take any more advantage of her if he won't even help her out.

However, Zen held it tightly and continued despite the fierce expression shown on Krista Dragoon's face, "I will help you out but you don't have to offer your body."

The atmosphere became silent when they heard Zen's word. They only had one question in their mind and that was if he went crazy or not.

Seeing the suspicious look from the 4 women, Zen smiled bitterly, "Although I'm a pervert and even a shameless scoundrel at that. I will never take advantage of a woman's misfortune."

Angela snorted slightly as she doubted his word was true at all. 'Didn't you obtain my body with my mother's illness as an excuse?'

Zen raised his left hand secretly and held Angela's hand to soothe her anger. Angela tried to flick his hand away but Zen used a bit of strength to continue holding her.

Angela pouted shortly after but allowed him to do as he pleased.

In the meantime, Krista Dragoon was still dazed by the words Zen spouted. 'He doesn't want my body? Does he mean he wants more than just one night of pleasure?'

Krista Dragoon was cautious and was unwilling to accept that Zen would be generous to suddenly help her out when he ruthlessly rejected her requests so far.

Narrowing her eyes, she said, "You want to have more than one night of pleasure huh."

Afterward, she moved her feet away from Zen's hand as she felt disgusted to even face him any longer.

'If I have to spread my leg to you more than once then I mind as well gamble with my life to escape the kingdom despite the spies around us.' Krista Dragoon said inwardly as she prepared to leave the table.

She has lost all faith in Zen and has concluded he was the same as those disgusting nobles who just want to vent their lust on her body.

She may have acted like a shameless woman to rope Zen into her side but if he was the same as those hypocrite nobles, she would rather give up.

"Cough, I think you're being too paranoid. I didn't mean to increase the condition where you have to offer your body to me whenever I want. I simply decided to help you out after considering it for a while."Zen said softly when he realized she was about to leave. 

As much as he enjoyed her smooth and silk-like skin, he really did not plan to take advantage of her body.

Zen could sympathize with her situation since he has been in that position in the past and had wished someone would just lend a hand.

Krista Dragoon squinted her eyes as she pondered if Zen was still a reliable and trusted person.

"How should I know that you won't renege on your promise when you decide to ally with me?" Krista Dragoon said and continued.

"You could blackmail me in the future when it's the crucial moment where if I don't let you use my body as you please then you would refuse to lend a hand."

Zen nodded his head slowly in the thought that Krista Dragoon has.

He would have thought the same thing if their position was swapped since they were at a disadvantage.

"I have Evie here as a witness that if I dare to renege on my promise then she shall kill me." Zen decided to drag Evie into the conversation.

After all, Zen had suspicions that Evie is more than just the owner of an intelligence agency when even a princess was wary of her.

If even the imperial family is afraid of Evie's existence then the only conclusion is that Evie hailed from a family that is many times powerful.

In this world, strength is everything, and those with strength are feared by the weak.

Krista Dragoon didn't reply but glanced at Evie to see her position. Evie noticed her glance and nodded to her shortly after.

"I can guarantee that if this lecherous brat decided to take advantage of you in a crucial moment then I will gladly cripple his thing," Evie said evilly as she stared at Zen.

A chill ran through his body when he felt the malicious aura from Evie. The aura she exuded did not match her cultivation at all.

'Cecilia, what is Evie mage rank?' 

Zen sent a mental transmission to Cecilia and asked her about Evie's cultivation.

Zen could only detect that Evie is around the advanced mage rank at the 4th stage but the aura he just felt was even more dreadful.

Cecilia didn't reply right away as she was using her spiritual sense to check her cultivation.

However, when she tried to poke into her body, Evie narrowed her gaze at Zen. An ice-cold look appeared on her face and it was even similar to Cecilia's expression when she was dealing with the enemies.

Zen shuddered a bit as he avoided her gaze and Cecilia was in disbelief.

"I cannot detect her true cultivation as there is something profound in her body that blocks off my spiritual sense," Cecilia said solemnly, and Zen started to sweat a bit as he exclaimed inwardly.

'Great, I fucked up big time now.'
