Chapter 466 CH 427: LET'S BECOME FRIENDS



After Sol and his companion left the now vanished or rather erased Goblin’s nest, Sol was laying down and admiring the flowing scenery. His head was resting on Milia's smooth thighs and she was currently cleaning his ears, causing him to twitch sometimes from the pleasure and relief he felt in this soothing gesture.

The way she handled his ear was like a pro and the calming aura she emitted reminded him of the days when Milia took care of him as a kid.

This time, the one driving the chariot was Medea instead. Persephone was teasing her sister as she instructed her how to move forward and how to control the horses with just her aura alone.

Meanwhile, Setsuna was gently wiping her sword with a cleaning cloth while sitting on the back with them. As a knight, it was her responsibility to maintain her weapon of choice and she took it rather seriously, ever-stoic as she was.

All around them were beautiful large trees, the odor of nature, and the sounds of small animals that registered in their ears and calmed them down.

Sol sighed in contentment at this.

He may not have obtained the super exciting adventure he had been dreaming of, but the current situation was not bad at all.

He could say that it was even better than the stressful and rigorous scenarios that he had been imagining in his mind.

This was a rare moment of absolute peace for him. No hurry because of the danger of death incoming, no having to plot to face the rebellion in his kingdom or fight against a world-ending threat, and even less running against the clock to save someone dear to him.

As for the war against Wratharis, the only thing Sol cared about was how to diminish the human losses that they would sustain.

While nothing was impossible in this world, the chances of Lustburg losing were so low that if they did lose Sol would have nothing to say about it. As he was a Duke rank and ‘only the crown prince’, he had absolutely no restrictions when it came to participating on the battlefield.

He doubted anyone but a King could defeat Lilin and Milia and while Isis couldn’t use her powers as a necromancer, she was still a Duke-ranked Phoenix in her own right.

To this, he could add Sheherazade and even Nefertiti into the mix. Two people who could affect the entire battlefield with their broken abilities.

Finally, while Setsuna was not a Duke yet, she was stronger than many Dukes and could hold her own without losing to the rest so there was nothing wrong with their side.

And what if Wratharis upped their hands and brought the King ranked instead?

Well— technically speaking, Lilith was also still a King rank being still, so they could just unleash her into the battlefield and let her slaughter everyone in her path with her sword. That would make everything much easier for them.

‘I hope I didn’t trigger a flag here.’

Sol laughed quietly at himself. Even if he did trigger a flag, even if something big happened, they still had Ambrosia on their backs.

She spoke candidly. Milia understood that a relationship based on a contract was too frail. What she needed were solid bonds. A more friendly relationship. One based on love and trust.

“Soon we will have our first night in the woods. I believe all of you know His Highness’ strong libido, right?”

Setsuna looked up quietly when she felt Milia’s gaze on her. “Why don’t we do it like this? Let’s leave the first night to both the oldest and the youngest.”

She said so as she looked alternatively between Setsuna and Persephone.

Milia’s relationship with Camelia became slightly closer after the experience they shared with Sol.

Few things could help create bonds faster than barring your body and soul while making love to the man you gave your everything to.

Setsuna blushed and Persephone laughed out loud.

“You... I already like you very much.”

Persephone’s laughter soon stopped as she felt the ring that was attached to a necklace around her neck.

This was the accessory created by Sol. The one that would allow her to have a close relationship without actually worrying about sucking her partner dry.

It seemed like it was time to give it a try.

“I...”

Setsuna, however, became a little fidgety with that remark. After all, she could not have full intercourse with Sol yet.

She wanted to speak but Milia gave her a meaningful glance toward her, “I know about the preparations you made after what happened when you visited the Milaris house with Sol.” [2]

Setsuna groaned and covered her face in shame and humiliation...

“I will kill those maids with my own hands.”

“Hahaha. Don’t blame them. Anyway, it’s time to see if the preparations were good, right?”

Setsuna wished she could simply hide in a crack beneath the earth. But at the same time... She could only nod helplessly.

After all — She was indeed interested.
