“L-Love?”
“Mmhm, do you have someone who makes your heart race just with a mere mention of his name?”
“Huh? Of- Of course not! A maid doesn’t need love”
“Haah? What kind of logic is that? Who said that? Who doesn’t need love?”
“Why would anyone even need love? Won’t that just waste their time?”
“Then do you plan to be a maid even after you get old? Don’t you wish to have anyone who is there with you at all times? Anyone, who you can share your joy and sadness with?”
“Don’t I have Skyla for that? She is there for me whenever I need her, and I can share anything I want with her” Lane countered.
“But you can’t have sex with Sister Skyla now, can you?” Nux snickered.
“Wha- What?”
“Err, I mean, then what if Sister Skyla found someone she loves? She definitely won’t have much time for you if that happened, will she?”
“Huh? Skyla finding someone she loves?” Lane frowned.
“Of course, you can’t be thinking of forcing Sister Skyla to live your way, are you? Finding someone you love is natural, even if you force yourself not to, it doesn’t mean Sister Skyla won’t. What will you do after Sister Skyla isn’t there for you anymore?” Nux questioned.
“That would never happen! Skyla would never do that!” Lane retorted.
“Who knows? Nobody knows what the future holds. What if Sister Skyla found someone she loves? Would you want her to force her heart and continue living the boring life you two are living right now?
Isn’t that a very lonely way to live?”
Nux’s words had a huge impact on Lane. She looked back and noticed that their life was true as Nux said, boring.
Since they both cultivate, they are different from other servants and are treated differently, this caused other servants to avoid them.
Of course, it did not matter to Lane because that was how they were used to live to begin with.
As long as they were together, everything was fine.
But that’s where another problem came in. The two of them had the same job in the same place, no matter how close they were, they didn’t have any topic to talk about. The two of them just eat and sleep together without having anything to talk about.
She has seen other servants talking with each other about their respective spouses, some complained, some bragged, but in the end, they still had something to share but she and Skyla did not.
When she imagined them living like that for the rest of their lives, Lane shuddered.
But when she imagined Skyla finding someone she loves and leaving her behind, Lane shuddered even more!
‘I-I have to talk about this with Skyla’ she thought inwardly.
Just as she was about to contemplate even more, she felt Nux pulling her somewhere. She then glanced at his face and seeing the excited look on his face, she smiled unconsciously.
“Sister Lane, look! A gift shop!” Nux exclaimed, his eyes gleaming in excitement.
He then picked up 3 simple looking black coloured bangles and bought them.
“Why did you buy this?”
“This one for Viscount Felberta, this one for Sister Skyla, and this,”
She saw him smiling before she felt something on her hand, she looked down and saw a black bangle on her wrist.
“And this is for you. This is also my way of saying that I will be there for you. If you ever feel lonely, you can come to me.”
Lane felt her heart racing like never before as a warm feeling filled her heart but the feeling soon disappeared when she heard his next words.
“We can also have sex if you want”
“You!” Lane glared at him angrily.
“Hahaha~ I am joking, I am joking! Even though I am actually not~”
“You are really shameless!”
“C’mon, you need to have some sort of fun in life, don’t you? Or else you would die of boredom!”
“Hmph!”
Lane snorted outwardly but inside, she had a little smile on her face as she glanced at the bangle in her hand.
The two bought everything Felberta said, Nux let her choose clothes for him and Lane did it excitedly.
Of course, Nux did not forget to tease with every chance he gets and their shopping trip that continued throughout the afternoon ended.

“My strength increased again” After their night session, Felberta muttered as she clenched her fist.
“Mmhm, a few more sessions before you will finally step into Beginner Mana Cultivation Stage.”
Felberta nodded with a smile, she couldn’t believe the problem she thought so deeply and gave up was will be solved so easily and… the process will be so pleasurable.
“Did you succeed in the mission today?” She suddenly questioned.
“Are you doubting my skills? The two of them should be talking about it right now!” Nux affirmed.
“Yeah yeah, how can you fail when it comes to seducing an innocent woman? I myself am a victim.”
“You are really thick-skinned enough to say that when you are grabbing my little brother in your hands, huh…”
…
Nux was right, just as Skyla and Lane were done with the work and returned to their room, Lane questioned.
“Skyla, do you have someone you love?”
“Wha- What?”
“Do you have someone you love, someone whose mere mention of his name fills your heart with joy?”
Suddenly, Skyla blushed.
Lane’s eyes widened in surprise as she questioned,
“Do you have one?”
Skyla nodded embarrassedly.
“S-Sister Lane, w-why are you asking about it?”
“Who is it?” Lane questioned without answering her question.
Skyla slowly glanced at the black coloured bangle she was wearing. Matching her gaze, she glanced at the bangle on Skyla’s hand and her eyes widened.
“Is it Nux!?”
