"At least not before the king decides to behave like his previous self and decides to get back to work." Alice sighed as she recalled the queen's face.
....
"Is he being exorcised then?" Nervous chuckle escaped Rae's mouth, he was somewhat familiar with the concept of possession.
'What a scary situation.' he thought
"Not really, who would dare to do that to the king." Alice looked at him as if he had asked a really stupid question.
"It's more likely for people to wait for his death than to try and turn him back to the previous version."
She sighed as she answered his spontaneous question. Even though the kingdom was in the hands of the king, there were many contenders for the said position.
There was no chance that people would let him be treated and recover.
'They would want the king to make more stupid decisions as to quickly overtake the throne from him.' Rae quickly made an analysis.
...
"After all this time and years, why choose me? I was planning to bury my name."
Rae asked confused.
He had no connection with whatever shit that was happening in the kingdom. Why did Alice suddenly decide to find him out and drag him into these issues?
"That's what you thought, I am not choosing you for the mission." Alice answered
"I am inviting a strong and young warrior with mysterious background to the royal academy. I am your sponsor, your backer, whatever you would like to call me."
She was not inviting the former noble Terias, she had wanted to make use of his new identity Rae to introduce him.
"Is the individual that i have to help is a student of the academy?" Rae asked her, otherwise there was no need for him to attend the academy. He was most likely in top five of them in order of strength, strong enough to be a teacher.
"Do you want to have a child then?" Rae asked as he looked intensely at her curvaceous body. She was sitting with her legs crossed which showed her meaty thighs.
'She had grown thick at the right place. Those thighs are pure temptations.' Rae thought as he checked out Alice's body.
"Probably if you complete this mission successfully." Alice replied with a smile as she ignored Rae's attempt to flirt.
"Woahh, you have changed a lot." The Alice he remembered was always ready for some quick fun. He did not expect to be rejected this harshly from her.
Though it did not affect his confidence in himself. He was already quite spent from the time with Maria. Right now, he only wished to reach out to the academy.
"Look who talking, the man who has changed his skin and has become unrecognisable says 'you have changed'." Alice retorted to his taunt, refering to the mysterious change in his appearance.
Both of them maintained their silence and did not spill the reason behind their changes.
...
"These are the small details you should look into, as for the admission to the academy? You will be escorted to the academy by our official carriage by tomorrow." She pointed at the files on the table.
The files had key information about the missions and the precautions he should be taking during that.
"And yes, you have to meet Serena before leaving for the academy. So, don't try to reveal your identity in anyway that might affect your mission." Alice warned him before leaving.
Serena was the official head of the family, even if Alice was the direct backer of Rae, he was still required to greet Serena before leaving for the academy.
After all, Alice had her big business but it was being backed by the noble title of Earl, and the title belonged to Serena.
Rae nodded as he saw Alice walk out of the room as she seductively jiggled her soft ass.
He licked his lips, reminiscing the time he had spent locked together with Alice.
