209 Shady Deal

After a thorough discussion on how they would set up the traps in the two areas, Duke Baron adjourned the meeting.

“Sir Aethelwolf, please wait!” He called out to Aethelwolf. This guy saved them the trouble of wasting too much time coming up with a plan on how to deal with their predicament. He also admired Aethelwolf’s wits and because of this, his belief that the man was a Level 5 Esper further solidified.

“Is there anything else you need from me, Sir Baron?” Aethelwolf smiled at the Duke.

Duke Baron shook his head and laughed heartily. “I just want to thank you, Sir Aethelwolf. Even if you won’t participate in the war, I will mention your help to His Majesty.”

Aethelwolf chuckled and shook his head. “There is no need for that, Sir Baron. I’m only doing my job as a citizen of the Leone Empire. Besides, I don’t want the classes in my academy to be affected because of the war.” He muttered.

Duke Baron smiled at his words. “I won’t hold you for long, Sir Aethelwolf. You can stay in the camp for as long as you want.”

“Thank you for having me. I’ll take my leave first.” Aethelwolf shook hands with the Duke before he left with Ramiel.

After stepping outside of the meeting area, Ramiel said. “Sir Aethelwolf, I’ll gather my troops and send them to the valley to set up the traps.”

“Go on. Don’t mind me.” Aethelwolf waved his hand calmly.

.....

Ramiel bowed to him before he left in a hurry.

Aethelwolf returned to the spot where he first met the first prince. He left Olivia and the others there.

“Papa!” A lively voice could be heard as soon as he arrived.

Olivia waved her two hands excitedly as she smiled at him.

Aethelwolf saw that the little girl was having a picnic with the intimidating-looking old man, Einar. The old man had a rare smile on his face which made him look less threatening.

“What are you guys doing here?” Aethelwolf rubbed the little girl’s head.

Olivia glanced at him and replied eagerly. “Me and Grandpa Einar are having a picnic! Papa, look at this milkshake, Grandpa Einar made this himself. It tastes great!”

Hearing her words, Aethelwolf smiled. “Where is Aenwyn?”

Olivia pointed at a tent and whispered to him. “She’s there. She said that the camp is too hot so she wants to take a rest.”

“Is that so? Stay here and play with Grandpa Einar.” He then walked to the tent and entered.

Meanwhile, Olivia furrowed her eyebrows as she recalled something. “Aiya! I forgot to tell papa that Aenwyn is bathing inside the tent...”

Inside the tent, Aethelwolf felt that the temperature has suddenly dropped. He then noticed that there was a pool inside the tent and the surroundings were covered in mist so it was a bit difficult to see something.

He used a skill to enhance his eyesight and the moment his eyesight improved, he saw something that almost made him have a nosebleed. It was a naked Aenwyn bathing in the pool!

Her whole body was submerged in the water and only her head was exposed, but because the water was clear, Aethelwolf could still see her naked body.

Suddenly, Aenwyn opened her eyes and gazed coldly in Aethelwolf’s direction.

Aethelwolf wanted to escape from the tent, but his conscience was telling him to apologize to the elf. He bit the bullet and moved closer to Aenwyn so that he could properly apologize to her. After getting closer, he could finally see her face clearly. She was dripping wet and her beautiful pair of eyes were looking at him calmly.

He forced out a smile and said apologetically. “I didn’t know you were bathing. I’m sorry.”

Aenwyn retracted her gaze and stood up all of a sudden, showing an extremely alluring figure. Her tantalizing body was dripping wet and all her private parts were exposed.

Aethelwolf gulped hard upon seeing this and even with the [Demon Heart] skill forcefully calming his mind and heart, he still felt his blood accelerating to a certain degree.

Aenwyn walked towards him and her pair of bountiful mounds rose up and down following her movements. Her hips swayed enticingly with each step she took.

Aenwyn passed by him and grabbed a thin book that was on top of the table.

When he saw the book, Aethelwolf realized that it was something he made for her. It was a vocabulary book that was translated into the language of beast and the human language. It contains simple words and sentences that were meant to help her learn the most basic form of communicating with other humans.

After grabbing the book, she went back into the pool and started reading the contents. “I have reread this more than a dozen times now. Have you written the next book? I want to learn the more complicated words.” She muttered in a calm voice.

Although her voice lacked emotion, it still sounded beautiful.

“I’m almost done writing it. I can give it to you by tomorrow.” Aethelwolf hurriedly replied while looking at her seductive body. The girl was too casual with him and she didn’t even bother to hide her naked body.

“Leave before I gouge out your eyes...” Her voice turned cold once more and Aethelwolf immediately fled from the tent after hearing her words.

When he stepped out of the tent, he saw Olivia staring at him with a weird smile.

Seeing this, he quickly realized that the little girl must have known that Aenwyn was bathing inside. He walked up to her and squeezed her cheeks. “You naughty little girl!” He then moved closer to her ears and whispered. “Next time, if Aenwyn is bathing, inform me right away.”

Olivia’s eyes widened when she heard this, but she still nodded her head smilingly. “Okay, but you have to give me cookies.” She said.

“Deal!” Aethelwolf smiled after making a shady deal with his daughter.
