Chapter 853:- Secrets in the Steam
"Alright, now who was the second biggest breasts here?" Lilith began to look at the girls. Seeing what happened to Alicia, others except for Rin quickly hid their bodies under the water. Only their bare shoulders stayed out of the water. As for Aditya, he lazily sat on the edge with his arms resting on the stone floor. Lilith noticed Rin did not bother to hide her body. "Rin, it seems you want to...." Before she could continue or move forward, a powerful invisible force froze her in one place. Lilith could not move her hands or legs. "Hey, that's not fair!!" Due to her powers, she won't be able to remove her towel. But Rin ignored her and looked at others. "Anyone interested in closely examining the body of a Succubus Empress?" An invisible force pulled Lilith out of the water. Lilith began floating just a meter over the water. However, Lilith wasn't afraid. She just grinned and looked at everyone. "Come on!"
"Look at me! It's not like we haven't seen each other naked by now." Hearing this, Julia, Alicia, Lara, and Riya looked away, feeling embarrassed. Rin blushed hearing this woman's words. She had underestimated just how shameless this woman could be. Without saying anything, she gently put her down. "That's a shame!!" Lilith looked at Aditya and continued. "Here, I was hoping to host a breast competition." Hearing this, a few glared at Lilith.
Alicia's glare was the coldest of all.
Lilith's actions indirectly helped in deepening the bond between the girls. Though the girls might not realize it, ever since Lilith came to live in the Dragon Palace, she has made the whole Palace more lively. Indeed, no one was spared from her pranks, which she enjoys thoroughly; however, deep down, everyone appreciates her presence. "By the way, where are your mothers?" Aditya did not see them after lunch.
"Since, when did I agree to share my first time with you?" Sasha couldn't help but say it. She felt that her mom was getting out of hand.
If she had kept things private maybe she would have agreed. "Oh... come on!! Don't be like this!!" But Sasha ignored her. Lilith's face became desperate. Seeing that her daughter wasn't listening, she turned to Aditya with a pleading look. "You brought this on yourself." "....Lilith

Late in the evening, Aditya visited Percy's work space which was in the inner part of the Dragon Palace. It just takes a few minutes to come here from the Dragon Palace. Along the way, he also met Luna and had a small conversation with her. "Your Majesty, congratulations on your victory against the Dune Sovereignty Empire. I am glad that you have recovered."
"Thank you but this wouldn't have been possible without everyone's contribution." Aditya cannot just take everyone's credit. Though, without him, the Istarin Empire definitely would have lost. But that wasn't important to bring that up. Rather, it was important for him, as the King and the leader, to praise everyone. Everyone deserved praise as they perfectly played their roles in his absence. Even without him, the Istarin Empire's military was looking very scary and frightening to everyone. "Thanks to you and your students, the Istarin Empire's military had quality weapons and armor in this war." "Your Majesty, you overpraise me." Percy rubbed the back of his head with a small smile. No one is immune to praise. "If you hadn't brought me and restored my Mana Heart, I still would have been a slave. I could never thank you enough." His tone was very sincere. "By the way, my Adamantite Doomblade broke at the last stage of my fight against Robert." Spencer had collected a few remaining pieces of the Black sword, and now he was handing them to Robert. He was very fond of this sword as this was the first gift he received from Adam after he got engaged to Julia. That black sword was really special. "I saw your fight. The Black sword was already cracked." It was from Aditya's last fight against the 9 headed Hydra. "It's my fault. I should have sent my sword to you but I kept forgetting about it." "Your Majesty, even if you had sent me this sword, I still wouldn't have been able to repair it. With my current skills, I can only make Beginner 4-star weapons and armor." "My success rate in making a Peak 4-star weapon or armor is 65%."
"I may have accidentally broken the black sword due to my current skill level." "So I will need to find someone else to make me a 5-star sword?" Percy tightly clenched his fists. He felt pathetic and disappointment for not meeting Aditya's expectations. Seeing his eyes lowered and trembling fists, Aditya put his hand on his right shoulder. "Hey, there is no need to be so hard on yourself." "When I found you, you could make 3-star weapons and armor. But you quickly improved and now you can successfully make 4-star weapons and armor. That itself is a massive improvement in such a short period of time." "Most blacksmiths spend decades if not centuries trying to go from making 3-star weapons to 4-star weapons. If anything, I am amazed by your talent." These words brought a little relief in Percy and regained some of his confidence but that hunger for improvement did not diminish. 'I guess, I will need to find Father.' Since Adam gave him his black sword, then he must know someone who could make a 5-star weapon. There were a few 5-star damaged weapons in the storage that Aditya collected after defeating the goblins. But he did not want a used weapon. He wanted to rebuild his black sword, this time aiming for an improved version.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
