Chapter 85 The Unknown Danger

'Welp, it seems she has an obsession towards me, though not exactly me but with my string of fate, which is cold and blue.' I thought after seeing Amelia's near-crazy eyes while looking at me.

'But what is this string of fate thingy? And from what I understand mine is different from the rest. So what does this mean?'

I didn't know the meaning of this but there was no need for me to overthink something I didn't know.

That is why, I pushed Amelia's face in front of me as she was too close for me to speak with her. Then I put my palm on her cheek, caressing it gently.

"Although I don't understand what you are asking. I would be happy to know more if you kindly explain to me." I said with a gentler tone.

"You don't know it too?" Amelia said with a slight shock evident on her face as if she didn't expect this.

She probably thought that I knew something about this peculiarity of mine, but well, I wasn't a scholar. So I didn't know and didn't care too much either.

There was no need for me to research this too as there was Amelia who will tell me everything I would probably need in a minute or 2.

Anyway, after seeing Amelia not pushing my hand from her cheek, I decided to use my charm to the fullest.

I leaned into her ear and whispered softly:

"Yes, I don't know what you are talking about but I will be happy to learn this knowledge from you, Amelia. Can you be my sensei and teach me a lot of things that you experienced as an adult?" I said and pushed the hair that had fallen onto her face behind her ear with a slow, sensual touch against her skin.

Amelia didn't speak and just stood still without resisting.

I leaned a bit more and put my chin onto her shoulders while my hand was sliding to the back of her head without breaking the physical contact.

Amelia began to tremble slightly while standing and I decided to push my luck with seducing her right here right now without waiting for the right time.

My other hand was about to begin to wrap Amelia but I felt a resistance from the opposite side.

There I turned my head and saw Aria, who was holding my hand while looking at me with a 'Are you serious?' gaze.

I wore a confused expression and waited for a silent response from Aria.

Fortunately, she was my maid who was looking after me for a year or 2, so she understood my question very quickly.

Her eyes turned to the street, where people were looking at me and Amelia's intimate behavior.

'Hmm… I see, so people are watching me like they always do just because of my divine beauty. And now that I am acting intimately with Amelia, this can go to the ears of Lucy, in return she might go crazy because of jealousy.' I thought and took a step back with a natural movement.

I put my hand into my pocket and took out a handkerchief, then I wiped Amelia's eyes, which for some reason were wet by some tears.

"Probably some dirt go in there." I said with a slightly loud noise enough to make some people hear it.

After that I leaned and whispered with a worried tone:

"Are you okay? Why are you crying?"

Amelia shook her head and wore a bright smile.

"I am fine, thank you for your help." She said and added with a whisper:

"I was just happy that someone wanted my help. Everyone acts like I am crazy instead of believing what I said."

I nodded my head with understanding and patted her back slowly.

'It seems I got a new troubled person with daddy issues on my side. Well, it will be easier to manipulate her if she has troubles like this.' I thought and patted Aria's head for a reward.

After that, we continued our way to the teleportation gates with complete silence other that breathing noises.

But before we arrived there, I got an alert from my intuition. There was danger, thus I stopped and looked around to see the cause of this alert.

But I couldn't find it, I spread my mana and aura but I still couldn't find anyone with malicious intent toward me or Aria, and Amelia.

So, I continued on my way as I didn't have any time to find this sneaky little attacker.

The alert in my head rang louder and louder as if telling me to stop immediately, but I didn't care about its cry for stops.

I didn't want to walk, run, or on horse to the elven kingdom. It would be too boring for me to resist and I would eventually commit suicide.

That is why I still didn't stop even after my head began to ache because of the constant alerts.

It was the first time that something like this happened to me my intuition was causing me a headache as if I got hit by a hammer.

Anyway, we arrived at the teleportation gates and I stopped in front of a guard. I showed an emblem to the guard that proves that I was a heresy inquisitor.

It was just a red moon that drops rivers of blood.

"Elven kingdom or somewhere very close to there. " I said without batting an eye at my torturous headache.

The guard nodded and led me to a white wooden door with a golden handle.

"Wait," I said with an emotionless tone as my headache worsened when I saw this door.

The guard and Amelia trembled after hearing my voice and they unconsciously took a step back.

"Aria, hold me and look around," I said while holding my forehead. My headache became unbearable even for me as if my curse wasn't working on it to reduce the pain. It was probably like that.

Aria held me with one of her arms around my shoulder. Her arm too was shaking but it was almost unnoticeable to me.

She frantically looked around and she released a sigh after confirming there wasn't anything else.

Then she crouched in front of me and took my face in her hands, looking at me with a blank face and worried eyes.

"What happened, master? Are you okay? Why is your nose bleeding?"
