Chapter 346 Lilith and Rolen return

Chapter 346 Lilith and Rolen return

After returning to the castle, Lathel went to study. When it was dark, Akna entered his office, the surrounding maids, of course, knew what they were doing.

In the evening, when the clock reached 12, Lathel hugged Akna and lay on a bed placed in his office.

Akna also hugged him and said softly: "Young master, thanks to you, I feel like I can break through my current limit and reach level 80."

"Ah! Really?" Lathel was really happy when he heard that. He didn't think that Akna could advance her power so quickly.

The stronger Akna is, the safer he is.

"Uhm! As long as I break through my current limit and reach level 80, no one will be able to harm you."

"Wow! My Akna is very strong." Lathel laughed and patted her head.

Akna also enjoyed Lathel's hands; she did not feel uncomfortable at all; on the contrary, she just wanted him to pamper and caress her forever.

Suddenly, Akna seemed to remember something and immediately said: "Young master, you can meet the queen."

"Heh?! Really?" Lathel asked happily.

"However..." Akna continued: "The Queen is busy with many things, so the best way for you to meet her is to go directly to the Hall of Light."

"Heh?! Where is that?" Lathel asked confusedly.

"Every weekend, the Queen will go there to meet with high-ranking people in the Royal Family to solve the Empire's problems."

"Tomorrow is Sunday, and your mother also gave you a chance to attend that conference. However... you must be careful."

"If the Queen gets angry, I'm afraid..." Akna said worriedly.

In fact, Akna didn't think that Ryne would harm Lathel because Ryne seemed... no, to be more precise, Ryne also liked Lathel.

It's just... Akna was worried that other officials in the Empire and the Royal Family wouldn't like him.

After all, what Lathel did was too dazzling, and besides... within the Empire, there were also spies from other kingdoms and organisations.

If they set their sights on Lathel, they would cause a lot of trouble and might even endanger him.

But... Akna also didn't want to slow down his plans, so she finally told Ryne that he wanted to meet the Queen.

Lathel smiled and said: "Don't worry, I know what needs to be done. Akna, thank you; you have helped me a lot."

Akna shook her head: "No, I only talked about this with Master. Master is the one who helped you."

Lathel didn't say anything more; he just bowed his head and gently kissed her lips. Akna also responded, and both of them were immersed in each other's sweetness.

After a while, the two separated, and suddenly, Akna asked: "Young master, are you angry with Lilith and Rolen?"

Lathel felt strange and asked: "Why do you say that?"

"I just want to know your true thoughts, Young Master."

Lathel sighed, thought for a moment, and then said: "Actually, I'm not angry either. On the contrary, I'm grateful that they saved Alec before I decided to kill him."

"Heh?! What do you mean..."

Lathel continued: "Alec is not an ordinary guy. He seems to be a child of the will of the world; even if he finds himself in a difficult situation, he can overcome it easily."

"Even though my plan had no loopholes, however, I was actually very worried. Because... if I can't kill him, then he might counterattack."

"You should know that... Behind him is also a demon lord. Even though I asked Lilith to keep an eye on that terrible existence, if the Demon Lord really appeared, I'm afraid all of us will die."

"That's why, to ensure everyone's safety, I cannot kill him publicly like this."

Akna understood what Lathel was talking about; she nodded slightly: "I believe you... Lathel."

"I fooled Alec." Lilith smiled and said.

"What do you mean..."

"What I mean is... he agreed to let me sleep with Lathel to get medicine to treat his illness."

Akna heard that and frowned: "Really?"

"Of course!" Lilith pointed towards Rolen, smiled, and said: "He also freed Rolen so that she could serve Lathel."

Akna sighed: "I am really confused. Why would a person like that be favoured by the gods?

"Stupid, greedy, lustful... As long as there is a benefit, he is willing to turn you and Rolen into commodities."

"Compared to him, my lathel is a thousand times better than him."

"Oy! It's our Lathel." Lilith pouted and said.

Akna shook her head: "Don't say that word too soon. Lathel still can't accept you and Rolen. He's even more wary of you than before."

"Heh?! Why?" Lilith asked confusedly, her face filled with dissatisfaction.

"Because you saved Alec. In any case, the thoughts of a normal person when they see you saving Alec, no matter how kind they are, cannot continue to trust you."

Hearing that, Lilith sat down on the ground, her mouth wide open, her eyes looking up at the ceiling, and her body stiffening as if turned to stone.

Akna sighed. She looked towards Rolen, who was panting on the bed. Her body was covered in sweat, looking extremely seductive.

"Do you really want to become Young Master's subordinate?"

Hearing Akna's question, Rolen quickly adjusted her outfit, then sat up and said: "Uhm! Yes, because I can be close to him, and he is also very kind. He gave me grilled meat and cakes, and he also gave me a clean room to sleep in."

"I... I have twenty thousand gold coins left. Can you help me stay here? I... I will give you those twenty thousand gold coins. I can work without receiving a salary for a month."

"Ah! No, this... I won't get paid for 3 months. As long as you let me stay here, be by Young Master's side, and eat well, that's enough."

Akna looked towards Rolen, her eyes carrying a bit of gentleness.

In fact, she liked Rolen even more than Lilith because she carries a kind of goofiness and honesty that makes people just want to hug her when they see her.

Besides... Seeing Rolen, Akna remembered when she had just joined the mysterious assassin team that Catheryne founded.

At that time, she and the others also lived in darkness, only knowing how to fight and perform countless missions.

Her hands were covered in blood, and at that time, Akna wondered whether a dirty person like her was worthy of being next to Lathel.

However, Lathel still accepted her, even though their statuses were very different.

He is a Duke, a high-ranking noble; his mother appears to be a Duchess but is actually the Queen of this Empire.

But he still loves her and openly tells everyone about it without caring about what others think.

That made Akna's heart feel so warm that it melted. She suddenly realised that what she did on Earth to avenge him was worth it.

What she endured for nearly 100 years was worth it.

After all that pain and fatigue... finally... the sky was bright again. She really gets to be by his side.

"So..." The rare smile that only Lathel could see appeared on Akna's face again: "Welcome back."

"Heh?!" Lilith was startled now: "Why can she come back, but I can't?"

"Because you are very suspicious."

Lilith: "..."
