Chapter 325 - Unlocking Door To The Treasury! (a) (1/2)
”I must say, you're capable, more than most of the women and men I have come across in my 20 odds years of life,” Elliot said to Freya in a voice full of honesty.
He had met s many people, but no one, not even Lisa, was as resourceful as the black star-like beauty next to him, and he was confident that only Grace could be her match in being helpful to him.
Freya realized that he had become her everything as one sentence from him made her heart jump up and down in joy. And because the being she worshiped praised her, a smile that made her ten times more beautiful appeared on her face.
Elliot, who was looking at her, felt troubled.
'She is smiling more and more often after I told her that she looks extremely beautiful with a smile. Why did I do such a stupid thing? With a smile, she can melt the coldest of heart and seduce the calmest of soul. Even I feel irresistible urges whenever she looks at me, such as right now.'
A person born too beautiful, that was what she was, and Elliot was finding it hard to resist the desire to keep this jade vase as a precious treasure in his house.
”My capabilities are limited, and I am not worthy of your praise, my lord,” Freya said while blushing furiously.
Her God had praised her! So, she was super happy!
However, she didn't want him to waste his words on a pathetic dark elf like her.
She felt that she wasn't worthy of his time and words.
Elliot realized that she was suffering from a severe inferiority complex, and he patted her shoulder, saying the following words as he did so: ”Don't lower yourself so much; it's not a good thing, and personally, I dislike it.”
The skin under his palm was soft, and he feared that he might bruise them, so he suppressed his strength by a large margin. Freya felt his hand on her skin, and her heart raced exponentially. She counted that this was the second time he was touching her, and this time it was out of his own free will. His touch was gentle and warm, and she loved every second of it. She realized that this unbelievable feeling must be why the followers of god lights and the spider queen sat in the temple for days and worshiped their god nonstop so that they or their messiah or messenger would pat them and bless them.
”Since you, my lord, don't like it, I will stop being humble and accept your praise with a smile.”
Freya immediately changed her mind because of a single sentence from him, and it made him realize how much control he had over her life.
Elliot didn't want to misuse his control over her.
Since she trusted him, he would not let her regret her decision.
”You're so capable that even I want you by my side, so don't sell yourself cheap in the future.”
”I won't.”
”If in the future I want you to work for me, what will be your answer?”
Elliot hadn't met many capable people.
However, they were what he needed the most.
