There were some nature zones, however, that were less pricey due to a variety of issues Maybe they were too remote, maybe they were not as well maintained, maybe they were not as safe, maybe they did not have the best views, and so on and so forth

It was in one of these that Aldrich's parents had seen a pretty littlesimple lives by quiet nature

In the end, instead of explaining the economics behind it all, he just decided to tell her what she would understand "Basically, , wanted to settle somewhere far away, away froreen"

"Is that what you desire as well? After you have finished walking this path of ambition?" asked Valera curiously

"Maybe I've come to realize that the reason I've never let ht have been because that opportunity was robbed fro a quiet life in a quiet place when I's are

But easier said than done I know myself better than anyone

I doubt I will ever be satisfied"

At that moment, Aldrich and Valera both instantly hopped out of the bed, sensing the i approach of a powerful presence Valera immediately materialized her shi+eld while Aldrich's [Death Essence Barrier] shone bright in an orb around hi open with violent force The Death Lord stood in the doorith her hands on her hips and a trius Notably, she had replaced her destroyed arreen prosthetic decorated with scaled patterns

"Then what is it? Hrite of locking bodies together in battle first, then in desire?"

"No, I didn't even know that was a thing," said Aldrich

"You came all the way down here to bombard us with this silly topic!?" said Valera

"Why not?" The Death Lord "I ensured the bed was spacious and quite sturdy, the room silenced so none outside could hear, and even took away your own bed

Of course I would wish to see the fruits of my labor sprout!"
