CHAPTER 154 – AN UNEXPECTED REQUEST

"Were you surprised?" - she asked with a faint smile.

The truth is that I was surprised and not only by her beauty, but by the power it radiated, even if she was hiding her power I could feel a terrifying power.

"I forgot to retract my aura, I'm sorry" - Clare said.

Then, all of a sudden, I went back to normal, she apparently took out a bit of her aura to test me, I'm not stupid, I'm sure she wanted to prove me, many powerful beings usually test the protagonists, even if in this case I'm not one of them.

"It's okay, so what do you usually do?" - I asked.

I didn't have a clear topic of conversation and seemed difficult to talk with her.

"Let's just say I spend my time tending this beautiful garden" - Clare said with a half-smile.

"I see, I don't want to disrespect you, but it must be a bit boring to do just that, or are you secretly protecting the Sitri family?" - I asked.

It's good to gather information about this woman, since she didn't appear in the novel or in the anime (as far as I know), I have to get to know her better, information is power.

"No, I don't protect it, they must defend themselves, I'm just in charge of protecting this garden," she denied.

"Wouldn't you even protect them if they're about to die?" – I asked curiously.

I can't believe this woman is so cold-hearted.

"I don't care about the family itself, but it's true that in this generation, three guys have inherited my bloodline, if they're in mortal danger, I'll protect them, but I don't care about the rest" - she said.

"Your bloodline, aren't you a devil?" – I asked in amazement.

"I am a devil, there is no doubt about that, however, I am part of one of the original demons, I am the daughter of Lilith, the original demon, however, with the passage of time, my bloodline was diluted until I was left with only a few weaklings, unworthy of being my descendants, that is why I don't care about their life and death" – she said with an indifferent tone.

Don't fuck with me, is she Lilith's daughter? If I remember correctly, Lilith was the original devil and it's true that she had sons and daughters (I don't remember exactly), but I can't believe that I have one of her daughters in front of me.

"I see, but you said that three guys had inherited your bloodline, who are they?" - I asked.

"Mmm, yes, I think their names were Crystal and their daughters Sona and Serafall, if I remember correctly" - Clare said.

"Really?" - I asked in amazement.

"Oh, you seem to know them, what are you to them?" - asked Crystal.

"I'm Sona and Serafall's husband" - I answered.

It's not worth hiding this either.

"Wow, really? In other words, you made my heiresses your women, don't you?" - Clare said, somewhat surprised.

"Technically it's only 2 out of 3, but yes, is there anything wrong with that?" – I said.

Please don't say something like "you're not worthy" or "I'll have to test you to see if you're worthy to be part of my family", I don't want to have to fight her.

"There's nothing wrong with that, as I said, you're worthy, that gives you enough qualifications to be the husband of my heirs, but there's something that worries me and I'd like you to do it for me" - Clare said.

"What do you want me to do?" - I asked with curiosity.

I couldn't deny her request, either.

"It's easy, I hate Crystal's husband, he's weak, disgusting and doesn't deserve to be the husband of one if my heirs, since you're the only man I've ever approved of in my entire life, I ask you to make Crystal your wife" - Clare said.

For a moment I didn't know what to say and my mind went completely blank, did she really just offer me her granddaughter? No, the worst of all is that she has said to take her away from her husband, is this woman sane?

"What's the matter, doesn't Crystal seem attractive to you? I know she's not as beautiful as me, but she's very beautiful" - Clare said.

"No, that's not the problem here, indeed, I consider Crystal a very beautiful woman, but there is a problem" - I said.

"What problem? I can't see any problem" - she said without understanding.

"Of course there's a problem, Crystal is married, you're asking me to take a wife away from her husband" - I said.

When I saw Crystal it's true that I was hesitant to do it and a part of me was telling me to fuck her, after all I did the same thing with Venelana and Grayfia, I don't mind that she has a husband, but I want to know why this woman in front of me wants me to make Crystal my wife.

"Do you considere this as a problem? I'll tell you the truth, that disgusting man comes from a noble family not comparable to mine, however, that's not the worst, I hate his personality, he's also weak and disgusting, if it weren't for Crystal asking me personally, I would have killed him the moment he set foot in this mansion, I don't want men like him here, I just want men that I approve, I don't even approve of the existence of butlers, that's why they're all maids, haven't you noticed that apart from that filthy man there isn't a single man in this mansion?" – Clare explained.

Hearing her words, I became thoughtful, it is true that during the whole day, I did not see a single butler, there were only maids.

"It's true... I've only seen Maids" - I nodded.

"Exactly, I only accept women here, well, if I consider a worthy man, he can also enter, but that has never happened, at least until I saw you" - Clare said.

I see, so that's the reason, at first I didn't find it strange that there wasn't a single man because I never imagined that there was a reason like that, but listening to Clare's explanation, everything make sense.

"That's why I'm asking you to make Crystal your wife, so I can get that filthy guy out of here" - Clare said in a contemptuous tone.

She seems to really hate him.

"Why do you have so much hatred for men?" - I asked.

She may be a lesbian.

"I'm not a lesbian if that's what you're thinking, it's just that I consider all men as unworthy of mixing with my bloodline, at first I had no choice because otherwise my bloodline would disappear, but I'm sick of seeing unworthy men walking around this mansion, I ask you to please make Crystal your wife, so that no unworthy man will ever again stain my bloodline with his filthy blood" - Clare said.

"But I don't understand, I'm a commoner too, why do you consider me worthy?" – I asked.

"I see, I guess you don't know... in any case, you have made Runeas-chan and Ophis your wives, I don't care if you are a commoner or not, but just because of these achievements, you are already worthy, there is no another reason, it is simply that, after all, neither of those two women would become wives of the same man if that man was not special" – Clare explained.

While I'm suspicious of the first part of her explanation, she's technically right... Well, half-heartedly, the reason why they are my wives is because of the pheromones and the effects of the titles I have, but I've always had doubts about it, do all those skills and titles really make me special or am I just a lucky bastard? It's a question I ask myself often, however, regardless of the answer, I don't care, I'll keep fucking everyone without giving a shit what they think of me.

"Okay, I'll do what you say" - I nodded.

"Wow, I thought you'd say it's immoral or something and refuse my request" - Clare said, somewhat surprised.

In fact, she believed that he was going to refuse and would have to use another methods to convince him, but who would have thought that it would be so easy to convince him.

"I'll be honest with you, I'll do what you tell me, but I want one thing in return" - I said.

"What, do you want something in return? I'm giving you the third bearer of my bloodline in hundreds of years, don't you think that's enough as a reward?" – Clare asked.

Now she was surprised, was he really asking for something in return for this?

"I must remind you that this is a favor that you are asking of me, I am not doing it of my own free will, that is why I want something in return" – I said.

Although I was going to do it anyway, but I have a great idea.

Clare thought about it and couldn't refute the fact that she was right.

"It's true, it's a favor I'm asking you so I'll give you something in return, what do you want?" - she asked.

"Easy, I wish you off, if I make Crystal my wife, I want you to become my wife too" - I said boldly.

Clare was stunned by his request.
