Chapter 274: A Weird Proposal
-----
How about none? Benladann looked them at the eyes, as they glowed with pink light.
She activated her powerful Unique Skill [Charm]!
Her Unique Skill had developed to the point where she can use it to charm those weaker than her to an extent, and if she combines intimidation into it, she can even force others to obey her.
"Get away from here and apologize to the restaurant for the inconvenience." She said.
"Yes!"
"For sure!"
"Anything for you!"
The three rushed away and did as they were told. The people watched with utter surprise and horror as he apologized to all of them ridiculously… the other two lackeys at his side did so too!
Haha, I didn't even have to learn their names, so good.
"I suppose that's that. Let's enjoy the meal and then prepare for tomorrow, there's a lot to do." I said.
"Fufu, I like how he obeyed my very will…" said Benladann.
Eh? Has she awakened a sadist side?
"Benladann?"
"Oh… Nothing, never mind dear…!" she said. Maybe that was Miranda talking…
"Was that Miranda?"
"Oh… Yeah, she is always with us now. So sometimes her emotions resurface on me…" she said.
"I see…"
Benladann got into a pretty good relationship with Miranda after a long time, and now they're like good friends and probably sisters too. I am glad their bond is growing stronger. Living in the same body could seem troublesome for them, so getting to accept each other is good.
Also, Miranda has changed her ways now and is not oppressive of her nor she forces her way into Benladann like she used to do, so now everything is pretty fine if I do say so myself.
Well, there are still some things I wonder sometimes, such as if Miranda is present when… we do things with Benladann.
But probably not, right? I bet she feels disgusted by it, so maybe she goes to sleep while I do it with Benladann.
Though, if she were to stay with Benladann through the entire ordeal…
Have I not been doing it with two girls at the same time then?
Wait, if that is the case and she likes it… Will Miranda… erm… does she likes me?!
This feels weird now.
I better not wonder it more than this, it is probably the first assumption, and she is indeed disgusted and not… like it.
Yeah, she totally doesn't like it. Who would like such a thing anyway, haha…
Huh…
After we ate our meal, we decided to move out, but we were greeted by another Elder of the Sect.
This time it was a familiar face, it was that beautiful witch from the shop that always buys our stuff.
"Oh, it is you…" she said.
"Ah… You're that woman that buys our stuff! Wait, you were an Elder?" I asked.
"I was! It is nice to meet you again, Drake. Your stuff is very appreciated. You're a good man at working with those hands. And you're also brave and strong enough to confront the pile of idiots in my sect… I admire a man like you…" she said, approaching me seductively. Her glare seemed to want something more than become my friend.
She licked her lips tentatively as she touched my chest.
"How about we go to my house, you and me… And we talk about some stuff together? We can have a bit of wine… And maybe something else afterward?" she asked.
"EH?!"
Who is this thot?!
"Hey, who are you touching?"
Benladann quickly grabbed the woman's hand and crushed her with her strength.
"Agh!"
She quickly pulled back; her hand seemed red.
"Drake is MY husband! If you have something to talk about with him, I am also involved." She said.
Damn right! That's my wife!
"Indeed. I am not interested in the latter… that you offered me. Benladann is more than enough for a man like me. But if you wanted to talk about something more important, we could go with you." I said.
She looked angrily at Benladann.
"Sheesh, what's so wrong with touching your man for a bit? He's so big and strong, you can't just have him all for yourself… A man like him cannot be just pleased with a single woman…" she said.
"What?"
Is she calling me a harem protagonist candidate?
No thanks… I am a normal human from my past life, and having a single partner is what is right.
Yeah, harem is cool in fantasy books, I guess. But in real life? Yeah, no. It's kind of fucked up.
"No thank you, having multiple women is honestly pretty terrible. One is enough." I said.
"What a man, you saying no only makes me want you more…"
Benladann looked her at her eyes.
"One step more and I will slice you in half…" she said.
Damn…
"Okay, relax a bit, let's not kill a person in the middle of the streets," I said.
"Fufu, she's so good at guarding her treasure, I like her… Fine, come with me you bunch… I will show you my humble house. I have things I want to talk about with you, Drake." She said as she used healing magic on her arm as she told us to follow her.
We moved across many streets until we reached a large house, with three floors.
She opened the door with magic and entered, as she was greeted by two handsome male servants. They were both ice giants, so probably just servants she employed and not slaves, hopefully.
"Welcome back, lady Cassiopeia." They said at the same time.
"Hello dears, these are my new friends, bring us some fine wine, if possible, alright? And of the nice one." She said, winking at the two, as they nodded and walked into the kitchen.
The interior of her house looked like a modern Earth manor; it was luxurious to the brim…
We entered the larger room where we could sit over a couch.
She sat down leisurely while crossing her legs.
"So? What do you want to speak with us?" I asked. I was a bit bored.
"Drake, let's take down the Elders together." She said.
"Excuse me?"
