Chapter 999 Make Sure To Cover Their Lips
After enjoying a relaxing bath with his lovers and doing one quick round with each of them, Lux and the rest headed to the dining room for a meal.
They savored the meal that Ari had prepared for them while discussing what to do for the rest of the day.
Valerie wanted to explore more of the city and go on a date with Lux.
Ali and Ari were very supportive of this, while Aur decided to accompany them as well.
"Since we are going to do this, let's do our best to not attract anyone's attention," Lux said. "We need to act normal, okay? All of you have hidden protectors who will watch your every move. It is best to not do anything suspicious."
"Okay." Valerie nodded. "Act normal."
Aur, Ali, and Ari nodded as well.
A few minutes later, the group left the residence and went to explore the city.
They were not aware that a certain "Grandmaster Elf" was currently sleeping soundly on the rooftop of their residence, exhausted from keeping watch the entire night.
Just like Lux expected, Lady Faustina and Piccoro joined them as they left the Elven Royal Palace.
Several High-Ranker Elves also joined them to serve as guides and to ensure that no fools would antagonize their VIP guests as they checked out the attractions of Espoir Frieden.
Unlike the first day where everyone was looking at Lux in disdain, the High Elves were more well-behaved after seeing the emblems of the Royal Guards who were accompanying Lux and his entourage.
No stall owners or shopkeepers dared to act rudely in their presence, and it provided their group with a somewhat enjoyable atmosphere as they strolled around the city.
"Your Highness, tonight we will be having a formal talk with the Elf King," Piccoro said as he walked beside Aur. "I hope that you will be there to witness the proceedings."
"Understood." Aur nodded.
"Also, Your Highness, we will be returning to the Crystal Palace in two days," Piccoro stated. "Make sure to say your goodbyes to everyone by then."
Aur frowned but still nodded her head.
'Lux's Guild Headquarters is inside our territory, so I can see him anytime,' Aur thought. 'Also, as long as we are in our territory, we can have our private moments together without worry.'
Aur was also considering having a heart-to-heart talk with her mother and Aunt and come clean about her relationship with Lux.
She was certain that although the two women would be surprised by her decision, they would still give her their blessings.
The reason?
Because Lux was the person that her father had chosen.
Although he wasn't a Dragon or a Dragon Born, he still had a Dragon Bloodline flowing inside his veins, and it was certainly quite powerful.
When the Half-Elf had made love with her, she had felt the strong attraction between their bodies as if they were made for each other.
In fact, Aur was certain that Valerie, Ali, and Ari noticed it too when they were embraced by him.
'He said that he has the Immortal Dragon Conqueror's Legacy,' Aur thought. 'I'll make sure to check the Library for more information about this.'
The "Dragon Prince" glanced at her lover with an affectionate gaze, which didn't escape Piccoro's notice.
However, the Dragon Born didn't mind this one bit because Aur and Lux had a close relationship with each other. He was not aware that the Half-Elf had already conquered the Dragon Princess and had made her his lover.
Valerie, who was now wearing her disguise, was doing her best to not hold Lux's hand. In order to ensure that this wouldn't happen, she had Ali and Ari each hold one of her hands.
The three ladies walked hand in hand in the center of the formation, with Lux trailing behind them.
Although he wanted to take a stroll holding hands with Valerie and Aur, he understood that doing so would be a terrible idea.
Their group didn't return to the Royal Palace until two hours before sunset.
There was going to be an important talk between the leaders of the different factions that had come to Espoir Frieden, and Aur needed to participate in it.
As for the side of Karshvar Draconis, Lady Faustina would be representing the Dragon King.
When Lux, Valerie, Ali, and Ari arrived at their residence, they noticed Hereswith standing beside the entrance waiting for them.
"You girls go in first, I want to have a private talk with my Grand Disciple," Hereswith said with a smile.
The three Dragon girls didn't find anything wrong with this, so they entered the residence first.
After making sure that no one was in their surroundings, the extremely beautiful Elf waved her hand and created a barrier, preventing anyone from hearing and seeing the two of them.
"Well then, Lux. Did you enjoy your night?" Hereswith asked with a devilish smile on her face. n--OVe1B1n
"I did, Master," Lux replied, not knowing that his Grandmaster had protected them from being spied on by anyone.
"Heh~ I'm sure you did. A very memorable night, right?"
"... It was."
Hereswith eyed her Grand Disciple and patted his shoulder.
"Lux, just know that I am always here to support you," Hereswith stated. "Even if the world becomes your enemy, I will always be on your side."
Lux smiled. "I know, Grandmaster."
The beautiful Elf then took a jar out of her storage ring and handed it to Lux.
"These are Gaap's ashes," Hereswith said in a solemn tone. "Do you know a place where we can bury them? A place where his tomb will not be desecrated?"
"I know a place, Grandmaster," Lux said as he held the jar securely in his hands as if it was a priceless treasure. "There is a place that Master always liked to go on the floating island. I will bury his remains there."
Hereswith nodded. "Do you have any future plans?"
Lux closed his eyes and pondered for a bit.
"I plan to mourn Master for a few days and watch over his tomb," Lux replied after careful consideration. "After that... I will be visiting a few places. I'm not going to lie to you, Grandmaster. I am at a loss about what to do at the moment.
"There are things that I need to find, and I know how important they are. But I have no idea where to start looking for them. Elysium is vast, and there is still the issue with the Divine Army. I'm sure that those guys will not leave me alone."
Hereswith wrapped her arms around Lux's body and pulled him close.
"You don't have to worry about the Divine Army for the time being," Hereswith stated. "They are the biggest loser from this conflict, and they will not antagonize you for the time being. For now, focus on finding the Pillars of Eternity."
Lux pulled back and gazed at his Grandmaster's eyes in surprise.
"Grandmaster, you know about the Pillars of Eternity?"
"I do. But, just like you, I don't know where they are."
The Half-Elf sighed because this quest was truly hard to accomplish.
The only lead that he had was that he would have an opportunity to come across these Divine Artifacts that would help save Solais from destruction.
"One more thing, Lux," Hereswith said as she whispered something in Lux's ears.
Although she had created a barrier to prevent anyone from seeing and hearing their discussion, she didn't want to take any chances due to how important this was.
"If you ever make love to those four Dragon ladies again, make sure to cover their lips," Hereswith whispered. "Their moans are loud enough to wake up the dead."
The Half-Elf's body shuddered after hearing the beautiful Elf's words.
It was at that moment when he realized that he f*cked up a second time.
