Chapter 477 477 – Portable Transportation

Moving to another room after I cleaned the academy with a big scale <Purification> skill, I faced displeased Alesia while already dressed in the Royal Academy's uniform.n/)Ovelb1n

She was glaring daggers at me and Emilia, who slept with her head on my lap. A satisfied smile was formed on the perverted teacher's peaceful face.

"Please forgive her for sleeping, headmistress," I smiled at Alesia and caressed Emilia's hair, "She was too tired."

"From dirtying my academy?"

"I already cleaned it, free of dirt and anything else."

The reply was coated in poison. It was troublesome.

Well, it was my fault, and we did get what we wanted: a witness to our shenanigan. But the one who spotted us was the owner of this place and possibly the individual who wouldn't take no at all.

Heck, she even punished Emilia for having sex with me in the Counseling Room by giving her a crazy amount of work.

'Emilia will have more work to do. At least I will make Alesia not give her too much work by talking to her.'

"The fact you ignored my warning from back then still didn't change." Alesia said and crossed her legs and arms, "How will you explain that, student Arthur?"

"How would I explain..." I muttered and looked at her straight in her eyes, "Have you ever heard of this sentence, headmistress?"

"What is it?" She raised her eyebrows curiously.

"Breaking rules is fun. The sense of immorality we felt when we did it in the academy, knowing that some students could walk by us, made everything feel better. As a matter of fact, look at Emilia. She looks so happy, more than usual."

"..."

Alesia was speechless. Her eyes lost their shine, looking at me as if I were crazy. No, she probably didn't even consider me as human anymore.

And that was funny.

Making her speechless like this was the first time for me. I guessed she despised having her academy get filthy or touched by outsiders. Her love for it was too massive.

"Sigh..." She heaved a long, tired sigh. "Are you taking me for a fool?"

"Definitely not," I smiled brightly. "I just think you're so pure for someone who has lived a long life, headmistress. Or maybe that's the reason? We, humans, only lived for 80 to 90 years. We should enjoy anything the world has to offer before we kick the bucket and die."

'Especially when you couldn't enjoy life before this.' I added in my mind without changing my expression.

The other party didn't seem to understand my reasoning. She didn't look satisfied with my explanation.

But she didn't seem to be mad either. Had she forgiven Emilia and me?

"I will let you off for now." Alesia said, still glaring at me, "But there will be no next time. And I need compensation from you. I believe I told you about this before. In case you did it again in my academy..."

"There will be compensation," I finished her sentence and shrugged my shoulders.

Her warning was not to do it anymore. But I guessed she changed her mind because she had something to get from me.

'She's just pretending to be mad and using this situation to her advantage.' I smirked. 'Is it wine that she's after? Let's test it.'

"What will the compensation be, headmistress? As you know, I might not be able to give it to you as tomorrow is my engagement ceremony. Oh, right. You are also invited to the party in my mansion after the ceremony. I will take out my best wine."

"I appreciate that, but I want something else to compensate for... dirtying my place."

'So it's not wine.' I thought, feeling slightly amused and curious about what Alesia wanted.

"It's just a gesture of my appreciation." I stopped caressing Alesia and turned serious.

"What do you need from me, headmistress? I am willing to compensate you, but there will be a limit. Our cooperation to reach your dream won't change, but I might refuse and find another way to compensate you if I think it's too much."

Alesia nodded softly and put her hands on her thighs, "I understand. However, just so you know... I had warned you before regarding this academy. I appreciate you cleaning up your mess, but I think the compensation I would ask for is not too harsh or too difficult."

That was reasonable, I think? No, I could understand her point completely. She didn't really need to say that.

From her perspective, I just entered her beloved home and made a mess. People would definitely get angry if they found out someone used their home to fulfill their desire for sex.

So, I would try to accept and compensate her as long as it was not too excessive, like asking me to fetch an impossible item or something like that.

I gestured for her that I understood and that she could continue.

"I've heard from an old fossil that you were invited to the Sin Kingdom?"

Old fossil... I guessed she referred to the elder.

"That's correct. But I need to talk to Pope Juriel first and get an official document that I would go to the Sin Kingdom for a while. Coincidentally, she's attending my engagement ceremony tomorrow, so I can get it easily without going to the Holy City." I explained.

"I see." Alesia nodded, and her frown turned into a smile. "That's good to hear. I want my compensation in the form of that invitation. Get me the [Moon Stone] and sneak me into the Sin Kingdom. Is it too much for you?"

Too much?

That was actually easy. Rather, I would definitely get [Moon Stone] from Juriel tomorrow, as no one but me and the Goddess knew about my new skill <Barrier Immunity> that allowed me to pass through any barrier without any problem.

'It's also thanks to this skill I am able to locate that special location in that mountain.'

However, I shouldn't make light of it and say it was easy, or she would ask for more.

"I will try. Is it related to your ambition of creating an academy in that kingdom?"

"Yeah." She nodded without denying it. "We have a deal, student Arthur."

"We do have a deal." I chuckled, "Attend my engagement ceremony tomorrow, headmistress. You know, to increase the chance of Juriel giving me an extra [Moon Stone] for you."

"... If I am not busy."

"There will be better wine than the one we drank that night."

As soon as I said that, her expression changed.

"I guess I can skip some schedule."

'That's great.' I thought, grinning widely, 'I get portable transportation.'
