215 Chapter 205 (Talking with Leticia)

Their time in the mall ended after having dinner on a good restaurant.

They took quite a bit of time picking and buying clothes, since after Scàthach's cosplay, he also needed to give his opinions of the dresses of his women. Of course, before that happened, he didn't forget to try and convince Tiamat to cosplay... but it didn't amount to nothing, Tiamat resolutely declined.

As agreed, he bought Tiamat a maid uniform... or more like ordered it. He didn't know how to react, when he found out that the shop only has the slutty maid uniform that Scàthach wore, and didn't have any normal maid uniform. Does a normal shop even have a maid uniform? Well, he didn't know about that.

Inwardly, he raised a thumbs up in praise towards the shop, but since Tiamat didn't want to dress what he like... err, the slutty maid uniform. Because of that, they requested to the manager of the shop to make a maid uniform for Tiamat... and it will be delivered at a later date.

Arriving to his new residence, it was already late. He was already holding back for too long since Scàthach's cosplay, the heat in his body couldn't take it in anymore. So... he wanted to have some fun with his women on the bed.

"Out! You better practice your abstinence more... or else it wouldn't even take a day before you get another sister!." This was the words his women left, before closing the doors. It turns out that all of the women will have a girls night talk.

He tried so many ways to persuade them... but a big NO! was all he get. In the end, he could only give up, since he doesn't want to force his women, and treat them better, he promised that. With nothing left to do, and to calm the on his body, he needed to be distracted.

He then went to the Land of Shadows. The mission about conquering it is still not completed, as he is still not recognize as the ruler of that place, because of that, he left to settle it.

Land of Shadows, the ghost queen, Leticia, was at her room.

"Ah!..." Leticia shouted in fright, when a hand suddenly touch her shoulder.

"My ears, what are you shouting for?." He said while covering both of his ear with his hands

"Lord Night!?... my apologies, please forgive me!" Leticia quickly bowed down.

"...You don't need to be that formal, and it's fine. It was my fault for surprising you." He smiled

"Y-Yes!." Leticia nodded.

Deep inside she was somewhat afraid of him, it's not surprising, after how he showed his power in that way, even killing one of the undead kings.

"I want you to gather every beings in the land of shadows, can you do it?"

"Before that... um... I would like to ask about the queen..."

"Ah, little Scathy?... Yes, it's fine already, the crisis that you face every hundred years, is already solved."

"Really?!!" Leticia couldn't control her happiness.

"Ah! I'm sorry... please forgive me..." Leticia noticed how she was acting towards him, before quickly apologizing.

"Sigh, you really don't need to act like that... just be yourself when you're talking to me, I can't have you always nodding to me you know?"

"T-That..."

"Let's say what if I ordered you to do something, and you know that it was wrong, or there are some mistakes... what will you do?"

"Correct you?... I-I wouldn't dare."

"Right, that's right. That's why you need to fix that, if you don't correct my wrong, bad things will happen. Especially, since know this place more than me."

"But... but..."

"Don't worry, I won't get mad of something as trivial as that, even more so if I'm the one who is the wrong... in this kind of world trusting someone is a rarity, even then, I want you to at least believe that I won't do anything that would harm you and this place."

"I-I didn't say that..."

"Yes, you didn't... verbally that is. Surely, deep inside your heart you fear me, I won't say that you need to quickly change. And that fear would also need a lot of time, to weaken it. I don't know what's the exact word for it... this is a request, not an order, you can ignore it if you like... I want you to embrace that fear you're feeling towards me, because who knows... maybe what lies beyond that is something priceless..."

"Lord Night... what do you mean?"

"There is no deep meaning, really. Well, just keep my words in your mind... how about as the first step of building trust between both of us... I didn't reveal my name before have I? Then, my name is Alex... nice to meet you, Leticia. I hope we'll have nice future ahead of us." He smiled.

"Y-Yes, the feeling is mutual... and about your words, I don't know if I understood it right, but I'll try..."

"Good... to be honest, I'm not fitting to be a ruler at all, that's why I need you to step for me. If it's possible I wouldn't even want to become a ruler at all.

"Can I ask why you did then?..."

"If I put into words... that would be because I have to? There are a lot of benefits becoming a ruler, and it's really convenient for me, but if it's in exchange of handling a world's politics, diplomacy and more... It would be a big NO! for me. But to have more power and standing, you need to do anything right?... and since it's a bother to me, so I thought why not let other handle it for me? It would be really great... that's why you need to work hard, Leticia.

"Erm... why do I have a bad feeling about this..."

"Haha, it's just on your mind... so about my quest before."

"To gather everyone in this world right? It's possible, if all the remaining four kings, including me will work together."

"Oh? You can freely order that three guys to help you, just say that it is my order... In estimate, how much time do you think you'll need?"

"Around half a day at most... and I will gladly order them for you, and I also need to share the news about Lord Night's victory."

"Isn't it Alex now?"

"Ah, sorry... then, Alex."

"Good, work hard for my future, Leticia."

"Yes... then I'm going now."

"Mhn..."

Leticia left.

"Next stop would be... the world source then. I wonder what good things I'll get in the mission, and judging by the information, having a world source would also increase one's strength, a huge one at that... Sigh, I'm really having this easy, maybe I'm going to break through again..."

With that, he teleported.

...

Sorry, updates might be unstable. It's because I'm playing Genshin Impact, and it's very time consuming!!!
