Chapter 189 Twists & Turns (1/3)
After passionately kissing, Arkhen looked at her and grinned before saying, "You asked for this. Now, I am not going to let you go. You will be mine forever."
Meya's face flushed before she started laughing, "You will also be mine, brother Arkhen. From now to forever, I am never going to leave your side."
*knock… knock…*
Suddenly, both of them heard a knocking sound from the bathroom door. Startled, Arkehn quickly waved his hand to create a force field to pull Meya's clothes towards him and put them in his inventory before saying, "Who is it?!"
"Mr. Arkhen. When you are done bathing, please head to the carriage outside. Someone from Central Alchemy of Bariat is here for something."
The voice belonged to the servant who led Arkhen to the bathroom here.
"Alright," Arkhen replied before he turned to Meya. "I am going out first after a few minutes. You can come later."
"Hehe, I got it. But until then, let's have fun," Meya said as she threw herself on Arkhen and started kissing him.
After a few minutes, Arkhen got out of the water and walked towards the door. They didn't do much aside from kissing and flirting caused by that naughty Meya.
…
After Arkhen left the bathroom, he went to the palace gates and saw the carriage parked outside with a middle-aged man standing beside it.
Arkhen entered the carriage after the gesture of the middle-aged man and saw Farin sitting inside.
"Here, your Ice-affinity pill is ready," Farin said with a smile as she handed over an exquisite box to Arkhen after he sat across her.
"Nice," Arkhen said with an anticipating smile as he took the box.
"Good luck. Let's hope you can awaken ice affinity in one go," Farin said with a wry smile. "Only rarely some people can awaken affinity by eating affinity pills on their first try."
"What about the other pills?" Arkhen asked.
"Ah, my bad. It slipped my mind since they were just side dishes compared to this ice affinity pill," Farin said as she took out another box. This box was shabby looking than the previous one.
Arkhen took the box and opened it to see four pills in four small glass bottles. "I guess they will let me reach the peak of this 2nd class."
The box contained a Tier-3 Body refining pill, a Tier-4 body refining pill, a Tier-4 Ice Coffin potion, and a Tier-4 Empowering Frost potion.
"Yep. Eating that Tier-3 body refining pill will allow you to reach the peak of the 2nd class in body stats. Be careful though, the pill's energy is potent, so you have to guide it carefully.
"As for that Tier-4 body refining pill, you can eat it after you become a 3rd-class powerhouse to reach the peak of body stats again. The only thing holding you back would be the training of your soul," Farin said.
"Got it," Arkhen said with a nod. "Thanks for delivering them here."
…
After leaving the carriage, Arkhen went to his room and waited for Meya to come. It was time to prepare a few things for the wench targeting Azela.
Ten minutes later, Meya entered the room and saw Arkhen and Azela sitting at the table.
Although startled, Meya grinned and walked towards them. "Sister Azela, I am also going to enter brother Arkhen's harem. Hehe, I will be in your care."
Azela chuckled as she knew that since Arkhen just told her about it. "You have to take care of us, not the other way around."
"I will," Meya said with a chuckle as she sat at the table.
"Meya, I'll come straight to the point. Someone is coming here to kill Azela. Not directly kill, but devour her soul," Arkhen said with a serious expression.
"What?!" Meya was startled and asked, "Who?"
"It's someone from the third realm. She blessed Azela with a fake front. I don't know if you know that higher realm beings bless the people of the Gravel realm. Many do that genuinely, but some do that to devour their souls when they awaken," Arkhen said.
"That… I have heard about them but not too much in detail," Meya nodded before she fell into a thoughtful expression. "But if she is from the 3rd realm, then my mother or father, any one of them can kill her."
"Eh?" Arkhen and Azela were surprised.
"Haha, you might not know, but people of the higher realm who descends to the lower realm have major flaws and higher suppression. They literally can't be more powerful than people who are truly at the peak of the 2nd realm," Meya said with a smile. "Father and mother are both at the true peak of the 2nd realm."
'Is that true, Velshi?'
[That is indeed true. People of the 3rd and 4th realm who comes to the 2nd realm can't be more powerful than people of the 2nd realm who are truly at the peak in the 2nd realm. That's why the majority only sends their avatar, if they know the avatar-creating skills, in the lower realms.]
[The wench coming here doesn't have an avatar, and that's why she will try to finish her work while staying low-key. But don't be careless. You must understand that simply having 1,000,000 EP is not the peak of this 2nd realm. The true peak mentioned by Meya and what I meant is different. That women from 3rd realm still have the power to kill anyone with 1,000,000 EP unless they have attained the true peak, which is related to the Firmament of the Stars and completion of Path of Stars]
'I understand. I won't make reckless moves. That's why I am planning and that wench staying low-key is to our advantage since she doesn't know that we already know she is coming here with vile intentions.'
"If that woman comes here, we can take care of her. I will call my mom, and she will beat her easily," Meya said with a grin.
"No, I don't want to kill her," Arkhen shook his head with a wry smile. That was not what he wanted. After all, he wanted to complete the emergency quest. If that wench died, he wouldn't be able to complete it.
