850 Chapter 823

''Eh?" Alex was surprised by how resourceful his alter ego was. If he had not reacted so quickly, he would have been injured.

After blocking the bullet coming from his back, Alex turned around to see what caused this, and he couldn't help but let a chuckle escape from his mouth. To think Ego would sacrify his own hand already pulling the trigger, he shadow-shifted this arm with the metal shrapnel Alex dodged. The bullet happened to be leaving the gun's chamber simultaneously. It appeared behind Alex; the time couldn't be more perfect. Alex would have been caught off guard if his senses weren't on full alert.

''Not bad. For a level one clone, you're strong. What is left is to check whether or you can be sent to farming while I'm doing something.'' Alex mumbled, already thinking about how to best use this new skill he got.

Silveria materialized next to him and said.

''The one-hour time limit shouldn't be a problem. He can farm an astronomical amount of XP in one hour. This can be repeated over again and again. What I'm worried about is whether or not it is possible for him to be far away from you.''

At the end of her sentence, she voiced her concern, and Alex's response was.

''We will know once we test.''

''For now, I need a hot bath to help me clean all the filth accumulated during the mock battle,'' Alex added before heaving a long sigh.

''To think they would come a day when I'd miss having maids helping me a bath. The short time I spent in the Far East empire seemed to have corrupted me.''

Her master's confession amused Silveria. She decided to tease him.

''Why are you feeling so done? Don't you have a bunch of maids at your disposal in this villa? Do you think they would refuse to serve you? It is what they have been waiting for. Just say the words, and they will be plenty of maids ready to serve you to the best of their capabilities. Even your wildest desires won't make them cower. You can ask them to do anything. To them, you are like an emperor, so you should enjoy yourself when you can, dear emperor.''

Alex rolled his eyes at her, refusing to comment as it would make the silver-haired girl too full of herself.

However, what she said wasn't wrong; he could ask his maids to take of him; after all, he was paying them with enough money to live frugally later, and from what he could tell, it was the custom in this world to include this kind of service in the maid's duties.

Alex shook his head to discard these thoughts threatening to overwhelm his consciousness. It was not like he was reluctant to do this, but he felt like something bad would happen if he were to let go of himself, especially in this villa, their home. It could be understandable that the girls said nothing when he was in the Far East Empire because it was the custom there; he couldn't refuse the emperor's hospitality, but doing the same thing here was sure to draw the ire of his women, and there was nothing scarier then woman's wrath.

Halfway through their way back to Alex's room, Silveria, who seemed to have sensed something, decided to withdraw.

''See you soon, master.''

Alex was confused by the sudden words; he had thought she would accompany him to his room while probably asking for money to sneak out to buy those ice creams she loved so much, but unexpectedly she left just like that. Alex was too lazy to ask why she was behaving like that.

Arriving before the main bedroom, he pushed it open and walked. It was time to take a good bath to relieve his stress. He already had an idea about how to make this perfect.

A few minutes later. Alex pursued his lips as he leaned into the bathtub enjoying his wine. He relished in the wonderful wine's taste as the hot water collided against his skin, sending warmth through his pores.

''Bathing is always a wonderful feeling,'' Alex commented as he continued to enjoy himself. Still, soon his peace was broken as someone opened the bathroom door. Alex, who was not expecting someone, was surprised, but his surprise was shortly after he noticed the person identity that walked in.

''What a nice surprise,'' Alex said, finally understanding why Silveria would leave. Looking at the princess, a former goddess in nothing but her birthday suit, Alex beckoned.

''Come here.''

He couldn't help but sigh in admiration seeing her beautiful body. Her body seemed like a delicate porcelain doll, like a beautiful piece of art. He could never get tired of it, no matter how many times he looked at him. She was his like he was hers. No one, absolutely no one, could snatch this pearl from him. Sometimes he couldn't help but feel extremely lucky, having been blessed with so many beautiful women; even his parents would feel proud of him from the other side. He couldn't wait to introduce them to his grandmother if he had the opportunity.

Alex patted the place beside him and smiled at Artemia. She put on an exciting expression and instantly rushed toward him.

But instead of sitting beside him, the bold goddess sat on his thighs.

Alex was surprised but smiled because it was indeed what she would do; among his women, she was among the boldest.

Artemia leaned her body against his chest and submerged her lower body into the water.

Alex could feel her bottom grinding on his flaccid member. He resisted the urge to pierce her and hugged her waist gently.

''That isn't a good thing to do, my goddess,'' Alex said as he bit on her earlobe, he did it so gently that the pleasure was doubled and slow at the same time, sending shivers down her spine.

Resisting the urge to attack him, Artemia asked.

''When are we leaving?"

''We are leaving tomorrow morning.'' He answered.
