204 Lear Bewitching a Girl 1 (1/2)

”I will leave it to you then….” Max said calmly.

Stark looked at him with a worried face.

”I will do it then…” Stark replied as he took out a pouch.

”I had prepared it as a birthday present for you….even though it's too late….. Happy Birthday…” Stark said with a smile.

Max realised that his birthday had passed away in the trial.

He smiled as he took the present from Stark's hands.

”Thank You, Master”

”Open it….tell me if you like it or not….” Stark asked with a slight smile and Max nodded.

When the gift was unwrapped, Max found a wooden case inside it.

He opened the case and there was a dagger beautiful black dagger in it. The black blade shined with a chilling glow. Max could feel that the weapon was not an ordinary one.

”The first thing you made was a dagger. This time, I made one for you.” Stark said as he remembered Max's first crafted item.

”Well...now that I am done, I should get going. We will be moving towards the capital tomorrow.” Stark said as he got up from his seat but his steps suddenly halted as he remembered something.

”Do you want to meet my family, Lord? He seems to be very excited to meet you.” Stark said with a laugh.

”Master, I trust you and your family lord too…..but I am not strong enough. I will avoid the Ancient families until I resolve this issue….” Max said with an honest face.

Stark looked at him and nodded with a smile before leaving.

Max closed his eyes and got the unnecessary thoughts out of his mind.

”I can't get involved with the Ancient families now. I don't even know how they will react to our existence…” Max mumbled.

”As for Ovens House, I will ask Master to help. We need to gather evidence. The last thing we need now is an unnecessary misunderstanding. Besides, getting the Ovens House will be the beginning of the war. It's better if we slow down this process.”

”Bahamut was right, building a force to depend on should be our primary goal. I don't think there should be much of a problem with funds. Bahamut and I am Mr. Cool both are from Noble Houses and so is Lear. We can depend on them….”

”What else can be done to make the situation favorable for us….”

Max kept mumbling as he slowly lost himself in his thoughts.

….

The Next morning arrived….

Max walked out of the pleasure tower along with his Master and Lear.

They would be leaving for capital while Anna would be staying by Ethena's side for a while. Derek was also made to forcefully accompany Ethena since the idiot wanted to accompany Stark or leave alone to find his master.

Lear still shivered as he remembered Derek getting K-oed for irritating Ethena too much.

People were looking at them with odd expressions. They had seen many people coming out of the pleasure tower. But a group of three guys.

What the heck were they doing?!

People's imagination began to run wild.

The group ignored their gazes and began to walk towards their vehicle.

”Did you hear the news? I heard that a guy died last night in the tower. People are saying that he couldn't handle the pleasure and ended up having a heart attack. Well he deserved it for cheating on his wife….” Lear said with a laugh.

”So shameful ….what is happening to upper-class people.” Lear sighed.

”When did you get your stuff from the home?” Max asked as he looked at his luggage.

”I did early in the morning. I settled everything.” Lear replied calmly.

”Settled everything?” Max asked as he gave him a look.
