Vol.1 Ch.44 What’s Next?
"Whoa! Dark Elves are more dangerous than I thought. Especially in a dress!" Quinus said in a flirty tone.
'It's because my body is practically spilling out of this stupid thing! I've already given up on trying to hide it,' Rya thought.Gêtt the latest chapters on no/velbin(.)com
Percy immediately went to check Dalia's appearance.
"Y-you look beautiful in that dress, Lady Dalia," Percy said sheepishly.
"Ah... yes well, I guess so," Percy said awkwardly while he scratched the back of his head.
"I don't know what his highness sees in these beasts. Either way, she has no manners," the butler muttered to the other servants.
"We'll have to bear with it." whispered the servant.
"Here you go, sir," the servant said as he handed Quinus a plate of food.
Once Rya's hunger pains started to fade, she had a few things on her mind. So she turned to Quinus and asked, "May I please ask a question?"
Quinus turned to her "My apologies for being so blunt with you, but I really don't like the idea of dealing with politicians. I would rather be a simple engineer. Maybe then I won't have to deal with politics and everything else." Quinus said sadly.
'Huh? An engineer? That's unexpected. What kind of engineer?' Rya thought.
"I never knew you wished to be an engineer my Lord?" Percy said surprised.
"Yeah, I liked building things back in--I meant when I was alone. But that's not in the cards, for this life," Quinus replied with a sigh.
"Uhh... So, what kind of engineering projects were you working on?" Rya asked.
"Nothing of importance... Come now. I think we should call it for tonight." Quinus looks to the servants to take away the plates.
'I never knew all the troubles on Quin's mind.' Rya thought.
"Alright then, Rya... Would you like an escort to your room?" Quinus said as he got up from the table.
Quinus walks over to Rya, who's sitting across from him. When he is next to her, he kneels down, so he can look into her eyes and takes her hand. Quinus kisses her hand gently. "Thank you for saving me," he said with a smile.
"It was nothing, really... I just...." Rya said quietly.
"You're a hero to me, Rya," Quinus whispered.
'GODDESS! If I stay by him any longer, I'm going to fall for his charms.' Rya thought.
"Whoa! Alpha, can't I stay?" Dalia whined as Rya grabbed her by the arm.
"You need to clean up again. Your hands and face are covered in grease. The servants will have trouble cleaning up your mess. Besides that, I want to go to bed." Rya said with a fake smile.
"Fine!" Dalia grumbles. "Good night, young one."
"Goodnight, Lady Dalia," Percy said with a bit of blush on his cheeks.
The five of them finished up before they left the dining hall and headed towards their bedrooms.
