Chapter - 100 [ Date! - With Bella 1 ]

Thanks to the intervention of the assassins, Adam didn't had to think about rejecting Adriel for now. Now, after talking to Ace, he was explaining things to Ruby and Bella. It seems Beta already knew about it. He wasn't angry at her for not telling him. He knows it was his mistake for not being cautious enough.

Bella, who had a date for the next day was in a bad mood. She learned a lot from the maids and wanted to try it during that time. But due to this incident, she was worried about not getting to be with him. But Adam who understood her concerns reassured her by saying he wasn't going to cancel their plans just because of that.

He had an impression that if she were to be angry, she won't hesitate to destroy the entire Empire. Thus he did his best to calm her.

After talking with Adam and his daughter, Ace decided to act this time by himself. Although, he could have ordered his servants to destroy the entire Decots family, he wanted to know the reason for this attack. Besides, since Adam is here, he wasn't worried about his family's security.

"Where is 'he'..?"

To his enquiry, a black shadow appeared and replied,

"We don't have that information, My Lord. He went somewhere yesterday. Since he stronger than us, there is no way to find his whereabouts if he himself doesn't wish to disclose it."

To this, Ace scoffed and said, "Fine. I'll find him by myself. You can leave." After the black shadow left, he ordered to the man standing infront of him. He was wearing a full body Silver Armour.

"Lead a group of Master Knights to the territory of Decots. I'll be leaving by myself."

Not giving the man the time to respond, Ace left the room. The man bowed slightly and said,

"As you wish."

On one side, Ace was cleaning up the trashes. During this time, Adriel never left the castle. Infact Adam ordered Ruby to not wander around without any guards as well.

Also due to the incident, the entire Capital City was shut down for a day. It made Bella very angry, which Adam had to promise her, an extra right to request anything, just to calm her.

So, a day passed without any real problems. During this time, an old uncle who seems to be Ace's brother came to meet his niece. She introduced Adam as her sword master to her uncle. Just like as if it's their bloodline skill, the old uncle suddenly challenged Adam for a match. It seems all of the Imperial Family are Battle Maniacs.

Currently Adam was walking side by side together with a smiling Bella. As the next day came, the two excitedly got ready for the date for different reasons. It seems Bella had her own plans. Adam was just slightly excited to go on a date with Bella.

"Thank you for granting my selfish desire, Master."

Hearing her, Adam smiled and asked, "Its nothing. But, do you mind talking to me casually? I mean, we are on a date after all. Also, just call me Adam when it's just the two of us."

As if hearing the most dangerous forbidden spell, Bella opened her mouth wide unbecoming of a perfect servant and denied his request after shaking her head.

"No no..! You are my master! There's no way I can talk to you like that! Besides calling you by name is something I ca—"

"Its an order."

"As you wish!"

Hearing the word , 'order' she obeyed him. But he stared at her which she answered with a defeated expression and,

"If that's what you want, A–Adam!"

He nodded with a satisfied smile and lead her around. He bought her some accessories, but for some reason, she looking at them as if they are some kind of Divine Artifact.

Before noon, he brought her to a shop selling Maid Outfits. There was a lot of designs. She wasn't ready to try to out in the shop, so they had to just buy what they thought was perfect.

For lunch, they ate luxurious soup and meat bun. Although the name sounds like it is cheap, it was very pricy. For one set, it cost 4 gold coins! But since he had more then enough money to enjoy themselves, he wasn't being stingy in using it.

From after lunch to evening, they walked through the streets of the city and enjoyed the time.

"So, this is a date? Its very interesting and fun thing to do!"

Bella said with an excited tone. Smiling at her, he said,

"That's good. If you had fun, then I am happy."

Looking at his smiling face, Bella had a slight blush on her cheeks, which would contradict to her age and race. But as if she is determined, she asked,

"Uh.. if it's alright with you.... I'd like to stay with you tonight...Adam...."

Although he had an obvious answer as to why she is asking this, he wanted to be sure. Thus he asked,

"You know that I don't want to increase the amount of women around me, right?"

She nodded. But she continued, "I know. In fact, I am not going to request for a place in your heart, Master. All I want is to be of use to you. I... I learned from them, that, maids serve their masters in bedroom. I wanted to do it too. Of course this is not because of my desire to become a maid, but I wanted to make you mark me as your own, master. Even if you do not love me.. as long as you use me, that's enough."

Her words was sharp than a sword. It pierced his heart.

'Haah... I guess this is my fate... Well whatever! As long as they have feelings for me, I should try to not hurt them as much as possible. If possible, I want to accept them.... But, I guess I will talk to the girls before deciding...'

"Sorry Bella. I knew what you were going to ask. The reason for why I asked you such a question was to make sure of my doubts. And after hearing your words, I decided! I will accept you. And not as a servant. But as a woman. Its true that you are fine with being a servant. But, I don't want a object or servant. What I want is you, Isabella, the you who serves me and you who offered her everything for me. I will love you. As a servant. As a woman. And as one of my family."

She heard his words. When she heard about him saying not wanting a servant, her heart broke like egg shell. But his next words pulled her from the pits of despair.

'As a servant. As a woman. As a family.... Ahhh... What is this feeling..? Is this satisfaction? Happiness? Love? Ufufufu...I guess it's everything...'

Smiling like a sweet blooming flower, Bella made Adam's heart skip a beat as she said,

"You are so mean.... Ma~ster~~"

'What was that smile!? Such destructive power! It made me fall for her just like that!? What a terrifying girl you are, Bella!' he could only think like that. The duo were still in the middle of the road staring at each other without knowing that everyone was looking at them warmly...
