Chapter 37
"Ellia?"
The voice pulled her back from her thoughts, making her blush .
"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 . "
"I got it . . Davis . " Glancing at the side, she said shyly .
"So Ellia, why didn't you push me back? I think you can answer me now . . " Davis laughed meaningfully .
Ellia's face went blank . She held her hands in front of her chest and mumbled .
"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 .
Hearing that, Davis was dumfounded .
"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 .
"Ah, no no . We are only made to learn from books… and . . " She hurriedly said, afraid that he might misunderstand but went silent .
"And what?" Davis had a blank face .
"And we are made to view from that crystal you took yesterday . . and"
'What the hell? Porno exists here too?'
"…And?" He gulped .
"We are then made to practice with vegetables!" She shouted and ducked, holding her legs as she went silent in shame .
"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 .
Hearing that laughter, Ellia felt like that she could die from shame .
Stopping his laughter, Davis realised that he had awoken to the pleasures of bullying his new friend .
'Ah, this is gonna be so fun . '
"Alright" He lifted her up .
"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 .
She regained composure and nodded her head .
"I'll teach you cultivation, so don't worry . "
"Thank you, Davis . "
"Stop that, there's no need for thanks between friends!" Davis hurriedly shook his hand .
"Look at that, you are already at High Level Meridian Refinement Stage . "
"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 . "
"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 .
'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 .
"Whatever, let's go meet my Mother . I want to introduce you to her as well . "
"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 . "
Hearing that, Davis had a smile on his face . His mother still cares for him deeply .
"Alright then, I guess there's no need to introduce you then . You stay here, I shall go visit her . "
… .
In the Empress's quarters .
A child wailing incessantly can be heard .
"Now now, don't cry Diana, Mom is here" Claire tried to placate Diana but it was of no use .
After a few moments, she suddenly stopped crying and slept peacefully .
Diana 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 .
Davis opened the door and went inside the Empress's quarters .
"Oh Davis! Come here, come here . If Diana hadn't stopped crying, I would've gone looking for you . "
"Hehe, Mom, today I saw Evelynn Cauldon . " Davis grinned .
"Oh . . What do you think about her?" Claire's eyes shot up . She probed him .
"She is truly beautiful, I think I've taken a liking towards her as well . "
"Haha, Davis . Just like your father, you two easily fall for women with beauty . " Hearing that, she was finally able to relax .
"I guess that this marriage is now pretty much confirmed . "
"Not so soon Mom!"
"Hmm?"
He explained the events that took place when he was in the Cauldon Emporium .
"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 .
"But judging by the events, looks like she isn't totally against the marriage as well . " Claire deduced after hearing his story .
"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?"
"This… I can't decide that, you should ask your father . " Claire had a difficult expression on her face while saying that .
'There it is, the legendary diversion technique he heard about, used by almost all the parents in his previous world . '
Davis sighed . "Atleast, you can't force her, okay?"
"Alright" Claire gave in .
"So what about your new personal maid, satisfied?" Claire winked at him .
"Very satisfied!" He winked back at her .
"Wonderful! Mother pulled some strings to get her for you . She was so expensive though . " She pouted .
"Just for facts . How much did she actually cost?" Davis let his curiosity get the better of him .
"One Purple Coin . " Claire calmly stated .
"…100,000,000,000 Copper Coins!!!!?" Davis had a dumfounded face .
So expensive?
"By the way, Mom, where is Clara cooped up?"
"Clara huh?" Claire heavily sighed .
"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 .
"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 .
"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 . "
'Things were this serious?' Davis eye's twitched .
