169 Chapter 169 Grooming
After some rounds of questioning, and some slaps from Mareona, they finally consider his clones to be him. Aldred didn’t blame them. After all, at one time, he also considered his clones not as the real him. But after using them a couple of times and receiving their experience and memory inside his mind, he came to accept the fact that they are truly him.
So hugging his clones was truly hugging him in the literal and emotional sense.
With 3 clones, he could hug all 7 of his women at once. But imagine in the future if he had 500 clones. Damn, how many women could he love at the same time?
‘Nah. 6 is already good enough. How would I have the energy and time to give them attention if I have too many. It would be unfair to the girls too.’
But with 500 clones, he could give attention and love to 1000 women.
‘Nah, bro. Too many women is not good. Six is enough already.’
Why take less when you can have more.
‘It’s not like that. Too many will overwhelm me. Wait a minute. Who am I talking to?’
Aldred looked around. There was nobody there except his two clones who were currently sucking milk.
He frowned. That was weird. It felt like somebody was talking to him.
‘Whatever. Let’s just go to sleep.’
Aldred and the girls were sleeping during the day, so when they woke up, it was night time already.
A knock came from the door.
“I apologize for intruding, my lord.”
“What is it?” Aldred asked as Stella hugged him from the side.
“Lord Yanka is inviting you for dinner. Your friends are invited as well.”
“Alright, let me prepare first.” Aldred kissed all of his girls to give them some love, and then he wore his clothes.
It was simple yet elegant. Not too extravagant, but normal people would see him as a wealthy man. He was wealthy though. He had more than 700 millions gold coins in his adventure guild card.
Not to mention the mountain of treasures in his divine dimension.
After he prepared himself, he went out with two girls in his arm. His clones were still active, and the maids were naturally shocked when they saw 3 Aldred’s at the same time.
“Don’t worry. Those are my clones.”
“Y–yes. Right this way, my lord.”
The maid guided him to the dining hall of which the soldiers were already talking and chatting at the table. Lord Yanka was at the head seat, talking to Bartrem and laughing with him.
He seemed to be the opposite of Lord Aleron who was a little hard to approach. Aldred wanted to ask him when he could go fuck the mother and daughter so he could continue his journey, but it didn’t sounds right if he asked.
What if he got offended that he asked such a thing?
That was his wife and daughter. If not for Maverick assuring him that the contract would prevent them from killing him, he would never come here in the first place. He also got the protection of Chanterre since Zafrina and Maverick were here.
So he was calm, but also, he did not want to irritate the lord. He would not ask. He shouldn’t.
The maids guided Aldred to sit near the lord, and he did. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
Lord Yanka welcomed him with a smile. “Sit down, Aldred. I talked to your friends and was amazed by your adventures. You’re a great man. Having a lot of women, killing a lot of monsters, and I even heard that you helped Maverick in capturing the criminals.”
“I am not that great.” Aldred laughed.
“Don’t be too humble. Your achievements deserve to be praised. And I see you are engaged with Zafrina as well. She is the daughter of Lord Aleron, you know?”
Aldred nodded. “I do.”
“Does he mind your relationship?”
“Uhh. I didn’t think about that.” Aldred looked at Zafrina. “Does your dad mind?”
“I don’t think so. You have a powerful and unique bloodline. In fact, he might want me to marry you.”
“Yeah, sadly I will be leaving this continent in the future. So, I cannot stay for long.”
“It’s okay. Just remember to visit me someday.”
“I will.”
Lord Yanka’s eyes gleamed, but it was subtle and hidden behind the curtain of his smile.
“Say, Aldred. Would you tell me about your adventures? I heard a lot of things from your friend, Bartrem, but I want to listen to the man himself.”
Aldred and Lord Yanka talked as the food and drinks arrived. They talked for hours while filling their belly.
Lord Yanka laughed. “So, you sell hot water at such an extravagant price? What a good strategy. You get so much while losing so little. When I first look at you, I know you’re a smart man. No wonder you have a lot of women with you.”
“You flatter me, Lord Yanka. I am nothing compared to you.” Aldred smiled. Lord Yanka was a count which meant he had a lot of Diamond Rank subordinates under him. And according to what he heard from Maverick, this person was also rich as well from his huge land and great trade routes.
If he played his cards right, Aldred might ask for some gold coins and treasures. After all, to find the main continents he would need a lot of that.
A lot of beautiful maids suddenly came and massaged the soldiers when they finished eating.
Meanwhile, the females were invited for a grooming session to take care of their skin. They also offered baths and massages.
The ladies immediately took the offer. Even Zafrina, Mary, Sophia, and everybody else took the offer.
“We will be leaving you for a while, Aldred. Have fun by yourself,” Stella waved her hand with a smile as they left the dining hall.
Left alone, Aldred shruggeed it off, but then 6 maids came and massaged his shoulders.
They all looked beautiful with their dresses tightly wrapped around the waist area. Two of them caught his attention though.
One seemed to be a mature woman. Around 28 to 29 years of age with a graceful and elegant body. She had dark brown hair and bright blue eyes.
The other one seemed much younger. With an energetic and cheerful appearance, maybe 18-19 years old. She had black hair, and a similar pair of blue eyes. They looked so beautiful that Aldred couldn’t help but stare at them.
“Does it feel good, my lord?”
“Yes, please keep going.”
The both of them smiled and massaged his shoulders.
“My lord, we also have a spare room available. Would you like to come with us?”
Aldred looked at Lord Yanka. He nodded with a smile.
“Since the lord allows it then there’s no reason to refuse. The girls will take a while to finish their grooming session anyway.”
