Lawrend and Valentina separated from each other. His white seed dripped out of her like a leaking tap.

He placed her on the floor.

“Mmm… I can still feel the aftertaste, Master,” Valentina said and smiled at him.

Lawrend smiled back at her and threw her clothes at her. She then disappeared for a second before reappearing fully clothed.

“Hehehe. Thank you, Master.”

She fully bowed at him respectfully.

“It felt good for me too.”

Lawrend nodded at her and left to enter the bathroom. He checked the temperature of the water and it was still warm. He was satisfied with it and soaked himself inside.

He washed his body thoroughly and stood up.

“Ember!” Lawrend called out.

Ember entered the bathroom with her head lowered. She didn’t dare look him in the eyes. She was also clasping her legs together as if to hide something.

Lawrend noticed them all and didn’t pay any attention.

Ember wiped his body and her hot breath touched his body. At times, she would glance at his slumbering dragon. In the end, she didn’t say anything and finished wiping him.

She put his top on and stopped.

“What’s wrong?” Lawrend asked.

“M-Master, I-I don’t dare put on your lower clothes,” Ember replied with her body red from shame.

“Why?” Lawrend calmly asked.

He already knew the answer. Rather, he was teasing her.

Ember looked away and bit her lips. She was normally arrogant and haughty, but she lost her courage in front of him. It wasn’t long ago that he dominated her, but it already felt so normal to her to be subservient to him.

“I’m w…”

“I can’t hear you.”

“I’m wet…”

“What?”

“I’m wet,” Ember answered and looked up at him with embarrassment.

Her eyes swiftly looked away after saying those lewd words.

“Really? Alright. I will do it myself,” Lawrend said.

He grabbed his clothes from her hands and wore them himself. He then headed out and pretended as if she didn’t just say something very lewd.

“H-Huh?”

Ember turned around and looked at his back. She already prepared herself mentally, but it seemed like he had no interest in her.

She felt listless due to it. She expected him to eat her up like before.

Lawrend meditated and focused on his phoenix bloodline. He was already finished with the magical formation and only need to convert it to an army formation. He could do it now, but he waited for the three envoys to finish their lectures.

Knowing more would only bring him more benefits. Besides, it might make his new army formation better.

As Lawrend focused on his phoenix bloodline, Ember sat on the bed beside him and watched him. She was feeling itchy down there, but she doesn’t know how to please herself.

She remembered what Aleshia did to her, and it only made her ashamed. She would rather have him satisfy her with his ‘thing’.

The night quickly passed. Ember attempted to sleep, but the inch in her nether region only worsened. It was like the more she suppressed it, the more it wanted to erupt like a volcano.

“Are you okay?”

“Ah!”

Ember jumped in fright. She looked at him and hid her lower body in shame.

“You look really red,” Lawrend said.

“I-It’s nothing.”

Ember straightened her back and pretended nothing was wrong.

Lawrend nodded his head at her and stood up.

“Alright. Let’s go. This day will be more exciting,” Lawrend said.

“Hm?”

Ember was surprised at his words. She was used to them doing this routine for more than a week now.

“Don’t think too much into it. The Blumin Empire should make their move today.”

Lawrend stretched his body for a bit to get his blood flowing after his long meditation. He left the room, and she followed after.

Ember’s libido slowly disappeared as they walked through the streets. She was aroused, but in the presence of too many people, her arousal died out like a flickering candle.

Lawrend and Ember entered the same restaurant.

Unlike before, the restaurant was unusually very quiet. The chatting nobles didn’t dare to say a word. Sometimes, they would glance at the duo.

“Master, can I get a r-reward tonight?” Ember unusually asked.

She felt hot thinking about her next words. She remembered Valentina getting her ‘reward’ last night. And she hoped for the same thing.

“What kind of reward?” Lawrend asked and slyly smirked at her.

Ember’s face turned red, and she didn’t dare to say any further. Asking someone, especially her Master, something that lewd was new to her.

They left the restaurant soon after. The nobles shivered among each other after he left. Their eyes stared at each other with dread. They knew something they didn’t do the day before.

The duo headed to the encampment once again.

But as they were headed there, a person stopped them in their tracks.

“Greetings, Your Majesty. I’m here in good faith,” a young middle-aged man greeted Lawrend.

He wore a long mage robe with the insignia of the Blumin Empire pinned on it.

“Envoy?”

“As expected of Your Majesty. Nothing hides behind walls for you.”

The middle-aged man was very respectful. To the ignorant observer, he would have looked like a friendly person. But Lawrend knew that the Blumin Empire was not friendly with them.

“What is your name?”

“Riston Jia. I’m a General under his Imperial Majesty,” Riston answered.

“What do you want?”

“The Blumin Empire wishes to negotiate with you. Follow me, Your Majesty. Our offers won’t disappoint you,” Riston said.

He was smiling and subservient. Even Lawrend felt bad to turn her away.

“Fine. Show me what you got,” Lawrend replied.

He decided to jump into this obvious trap. He was curious about what the empire had in lay for him.

They even spread to the nobles in the city that he was here. Could they be trying to attempt to take over the city from the inside? He wanted to find out.

“Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty,” Riston said and lead the way.
