"Ellia?
"
nThe voice pulled her back from her thoughts, making her blush .
n
"Hmm… We have become friends, so it's fine to call me Davis when we are alone from now on . For your safety, don't call me Davis in front of others . Things will go worse for you if you say my name in front of someone else, but even if it came down to that, I will take care of that . So, you don't have to worry too much about it .
"
n
"I got it . . Davis .
" Glancing at the side, she said shyly .
n
"So Ellia, why didn't you push me back? I think you can answer me now . .
" Davis laughed meaningfully .
nEllia's face went blank . She held her hands in front of her chest and mumbled .
n
"Tha . . that is… as a maid in training, we are made to learn about nightly services, so I was pretty much . . ready for it .
" By the time she finished, her face was so red that it looked like an apple .
nHearing that, Davis was dumfounded .
n
"What? Did those bastards do something to you? I will definitely get revenge for you!
" Davis fumed with anger . What are they doing with little girls? This is definitely a crime .
n
"Ah, no no . We are only made to learn from books… and . .
" She hurriedly said, afraid that he might misunderstand but went silent .
n
"And what?
" Davis had a blank face .
n
"And we are made to view from that crystal you took yesterday . . and
"
n'What the hell? Porno exists here too?'
n
"…And?
" He gulped .
n
"We are then made to practice with vegetables!
" She shouted and ducked, holding her legs as she went silent in shame .
n
"Hahahaha
" Davis laughed rolling on the floor literally . He hadn't had a laugh like this in his whole life . He laughed so hard that a little drop of tear rolled out from his eyes .
nHearing that laughter, Ellia felt like that she could die from shame .
nStopping his laughter, Davis realised that he had awoken to the pleasures of bullying his new friend .
n'Ah, this is gonna be so fun . '
n
"Alright
" He lifted her up .
n
"Ellia, if you want to break out from this status you have, then you need strength . Strength is the basic form of power and if you have it, no one would dare to look down upon you regardless of status .
" Davis said seriously .
nShe regained composure and nodded her head .
n
"I'll teach you cultivation, so don't worry .
"
n
"Thank you, Davis .
"
n
"Stop that, there's no need for thanks between friends!
" Davis hurriedly shook his hand .
n
"Look at that, you are already at High Level Meridian Refinement Stage .
"
n
"Hehe, they said that I have some talent for cultivation . I heard that, that's why they sold me so expensively that only the Royal Family could afford for a single slave like me .
"
n
"I don't know whether to be happy or sad about that fact, but I guess your talent is good, considering the stage you achieved at your age without much resources .
" Davis said while guessing how high her talent was .
n'Oh, but I am pretty happy about that fact . After all, I was able to meet you .
" Thinking like that, she smiled in her heart .
n
"Whatever, let's go meet my Mother . I want to introduce you to her as well .
"
n
"Oh, If it's the Empress, I have already met her once . She only gave me a single mission, and that was to take care of you well .
"
nHearing that, Davis had a smile on his face . His mother still cares for him deeply .
n
"Alright then, I guess there's no need to introduce you then . You stay here, I shall go visit her .
"
n
n
n… .
nIn the Empress's quarters .
nA child wailing incessantly can be heard .
n
"Now now, don't cry Diana, Mom is here
" Claire tried to placate Diana but it was of no use .
nAfter a few moments, she suddenly stopped crying and slept peacefully .
nDiana had two pure sappire eyes . She was chubby and incredibly cute . Her black hair was short . If she grew up, she would totally look like her mother combined with her father's eyes and hair .
nDavis opened the door and went inside the Empress's quarters .
n
"Oh Davis! Come here, come here . If Diana hadn't stopped crying, I would've gone looking for you .
"
n
"Hehe, Mom, today I saw Evelynn Cauldon .
" Davis grinned .
n
"Oh . . What do you think about her?
" Claire's eyes shot up . She probed him .
n
"She is truly beautiful, I think I've taken a liking towards her as well .
"
n
"Haha, Davis . Just like your father, you two easily fall for women with beauty .
" Hearing that, she was finally able to relax .
n
"I guess that this marriage is now pretty much confirmed .
"
n
"Not so soon Mom!
"
n
"Hmm?
"
nHe explained the events that took place when he was in the Cauldon Emporium .
n
"And that's it, I don't think she likes the marriage arrangement and if she doesn't like me, then just let her go .
" Davis spread his hands wide .
n
"But judging by the events, looks like she isn't totally against the marriage as well .
" Claire deduced after hearing his story .
n
"Then we'll have to see how it goes . If by any chance she doesn't want to be with me, then we will cancel the marriage! Agreed?
"
n
"This… I can't decide that, you should ask your father .
" Claire had a difficult expression on her face while saying that .
n'There it is, the legendary diversion technique he heard about, used by almost all the parents in his previous world . '
nDavis sighed .
"Atleast, you can't force her, okay?
"
n
"Alright
" Claire gave in .
n
"So what about your new personal maid, satisfied?
" Claire winked at him .
n
"Very satisfied!
" He winked back at her .
n
"Wonderful! Mother pulled some strings to get her for you . She was so expensive though .
" She pouted .
n
"Just for facts . How much did she actually cost?
" Davis let his curiosity get the better of him .
n
"One Purple Coin .
" Claire calmly stated .
n
"…100,000,000,000 Copper Coins!!!!?
" Davis had a dumfounded face .
nSo expensive?
n
"By the way, Mom, where is Clara cooped up?
"
n
"Clara huh?
" Claire heavily sighed .
n
"That child isn't the same as she used to be . For some reason, she is avoiding us father and mother as well .
" She said sadly .
n
"What did I do wrong? Did I wrong her in anyway? Your father is afraid to deal with her since she can think for herself as a girl . She only talks to you and won't talk much to us . I can feel that she maintains some distance from us .
" Claire bit her lips .
n
"Honestly, you two are so much different than a normal child that we hesitate to even make the slightest wrong choice while having a conversation . I know about you Davis, but she just won't open up to us . All that she does is give a short reply or nod her head .
"
n'Things were this serious?' Davis eye's twitched .
