Chapter 1044: Chapter 363: Treasure Girl (Part 2)

Moreover, for someone as powerful as Rein, the possibility of forgetting one item isn’t nonexistent, but forgetting two at the same time is almost impossible.

Additionally, Fandar mentioned that Lord Rein came to search for that witchcraft.

So, the entire situation is now very clear.

“Earl Dalair, is this how you prepared the gift for me?” Luther looked at Earl Dalair and Camacho with a displeased tone.

“Strong-arm tactics?”

“And you’re trying to take Lord Rein, my friend’s, spoils?!”

“This…. this, Lord Luther, please let me explain, this is a misunderstanding.” Even Earl Dalair found himself in a tough spot, with beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.

Camacho was utterly caught off guard; he hadn’t anticipated that the Ice Claw Bear Mercenary Group, which he thought was easy prey, actually had such strong backing.

Moreover, this backing was not ordinary.

“Yes! Lord Luther, I believe this is a misunderstanding!” Camacho, regaining his composure, hurriedly explained, but it was evidently unconvincing.

“Hmph! If Lord Luther hadn’t arrived just now, you were about to attack and seize Lord Rein’s spoils!” Georgia watched the scene with satisfaction, yet, seeing their continued denial, couldn’t help but scold harshly.

“Earl Dalair, I’ll deal with you over this matter later.”

“Moreover, this incident will undoubtedly reach Lord Rein’s ears. You should think about how to explain yourselves to Lord Rein first.”

“As for the journey ahead, let me handle it,” Luther turned to Fandar and others, smiling.

“General Howie from the Marn City Sword Bearers Branch is my friend. I will contact him in advance to report Lord Rein’s spoils as quickly as possible.”

“Then I’ll trouble Lord Luther,” Fandar, slightly surprised, agreed joyfully.

With the escort of Chimera Knight Lord Luther, post-trip safety was assured.

Even if the Dalair Family was given a hundred guts, they wouldn’t dare to act against Lord Luther.

Winterfort Academy.

In Anna’s room, the bathroom wall had collapsed.

Rein, with a look of apology, said to Anna: “Anna, I’m really sorry, I just tried a new witchcraft, so….”

New witchcraft?

Anna’s beautiful eyes looked at Rein in confusion and said: “Is it that Second Level New Witchcraft ‘Cutting Net’?”

Rein nodded.

“Liar, you barely got it for half a day and already learned it? That’s a Second Level Witchcraft?” Anna gave Rein a disbelieving look.

After all, no matter how talented, it’s unheard of to learn a Second Level Witchcraft in just half a day. For ordinary wizards, it takes a month or even several months of research and exploration as normal.

“Knock knock knock!”

“Miss Anna, are you alright?” Suddenly, Merita’s urgent voice came from outside.

Evidently, she had heard the sound of the wall collapsing, so she rushed over.

“I’m fine.” It seemed Anna was anxious that Merita might come in at any moment and answered quickly, also tightening her bathrobe.

“Miss Anna, what just happened?” Merita asked curiously from outside the door.

Fine?

But with such a loud noise just now?!

Really fine?

Could it be someone entered and held Miss Anna hostage? Merita couldn’t help but worry.

And for a moment, Anna didn’t know how to explain, so she whispered to Rein:

“Rein, tell me, what should I say?”

“Ahem… Merita, I accidentally exerted too much force, causing the wall to collapse; it will need repair tomorrow,” Rein said with a wry smile.

Hmm?

Lord Rein is here too?

But isn’t this Miss Anna’s room?

Merita was initially stunned but then let out a huge sigh of relief.

Then there’s no problem.

With Lord Rein here, at the very least Miss Anna’s safety is guaranteed, though she might suffer a little loss.

“Alright, Lord Rein, as long as you’re here, I’m relieved,” came Merita’s slightly lively voice from outside the door.

Soon, light footsteps gradually faded away.

“It’s all because of you; you’ve embarrassed me in front of Merita…” Anna couldn’t help but blush at the thought, giving Rein a playful scold.

But Anna forgot that she was in a just-out-of-the-bath state with a charming, soft pout, an immeasurable temptation for a man.

Instantly, Anna felt her lips being blocked, leaving her breathless…

A few minutes later, they finally separated.

“Anna, shall I help you dry your hair?”

“Okay!” A voice barely louder than a mosquito came from Anna’s throat.

At that moment, Anna was blushing with her head lowered, her beautiful eyes seemingly foggy, not sure if it was from the kiss or the heat in the bathroom.

Hearing Anna agree, Rein was overjoyed, pulling Anna into his arms again and using Fire Element Witchcraft ‘High Temperature Force Field’.

Anna naturally sensed the energy change around, but she just felt her whole body soft and cozy being held like this by Rein, as long as Rein didn’t do anything else, she’d gladly let him hold her forever.

Moreover, Anna felt that Rein’s embrace gave her a special sense of safety, a safety that even Aunt Delana or others couldn’t provide.
