Chapter 104 Belicia's Young Master

As she watched Tika walk away, Belicia scowled. She then turned around and knocked softly on the door.

''Young master, I'm here. ''

''Come inside. '' Soon after, a wheezy voice was heard.

Belicia cautiously opened the door and stepped inside the room, which was much darker than the hallway. As soon as she walked into the room, she was hit with a pungent smell that made her nose burn and her skin start to tingle.

The room was large and impressive, with cream-colored walls and intricate moldings. In one corner, there was an unlit fireplace framed by a marble mantle, and in the center of the room sat a large wooden desk covered in paperwork. Richness and power pervaded the atmosphere.

''Young master. '' Belicia approached the man seated behind the desk and bowed down to greet him right away.

''You can raise your head. '' When the same wheezy voice rang in her ears again, Belicia raised her head and quietly waited with her hands folded in front of her.

''You should understand why I summoned you here, right?'' The man spoke again.

''Yes, master. '' As she replied, She gave the man a quick glance out of the corner of her eye before returning her eyes to the ground.

Belicia was currently too terrified to even look at this man, who appeared to be a skinny 20-year-old man wearing a white t-shirt over black pants. However, it was interesting to note that he had bandages covering his arms, hands, and head, giving the impression that he had recently been in an accident and was recovering.

Only the green and glowing pupils beneath his lashless eyelids were visible on his bandaged face. One would assume from those eyes that there might be an incredibly attractive face hidden beneath those bandages, but Belicia was not thinking about that at the moment. Every breath she took while she was in front of this man hurt, and the tingling throughout her body began to feel more and more like pins and needles.

''Do you have any idea how he recovered? '' The man asked, this time with a voice that was clearly irritated.

Belicia didn't dare hesitate before responding to the question. '' I'm not certain as well. When I arrived to check on him, he had already recovered…. ''

Belicia paused and wished she could tell a lie to keep Raydon's awakening a secret, but the immense pressure from the man across from her made it difficult for her to even think clearly.

Belicia couldn't even say what was on her mind anymore. Her body was starting to comply with the man's commands. It even took all of her willpower to keep quiet about Raydon's awakening as an item holder.

But there was no need for Belicia to say it with her mouth because the man's eyes were staring straight into Belicia's soul.

''I see. He's awakened, isn't he? That's quite unexpected.'' As he stood up from his chair, the man said mockingly.

''An idiot since birth and a disgrace to our family, my little brother awakens as an item holder only a few years after being kicked out of the family. It's a really interesting story. ''

Step by step, the man approached Belicia and inquired.  ''Can you tell me how this happened? ''

Everyone believed Raydon would pass away soon after he was expelled from the family mansion. Even the battle maid assigned to Raydon the moment he was born, who was supposed to take special care of him, had been secretly told to abandon him.

But, all the while, Belicia was doing what Tika was supposed to do, and, interestingly, no one stopped her, despite the fact that they were aware of it.

That's why this man, Raydon's older brother, was interrogating Belicia. She would most likely know if there was a secret behind Raydon's awakening.

''I don't know,'' Belicia replied. She wasn't lying, either, because Raydon's sudden awakening had taken her by surprise as well.

''I'm disappointed in you, Belicia.''

? The man continued while reaching out and stroking Belicia's hair.

''I know my grandfather was the one who ordered you to look after him, so I can't do anything to you, but I need to vent my rage somewhere.'' When he noticed Belicia's trembling body, he withdrew his hand, giggling with delight.

''Don't worry, I'm not allowed to touch a battle maid because of this body, even if you were chosen for me. Well, even if I became the family's future head and was allowed to touch you, I wouldn't want to abuse one of my precious battle maids for my own pleasure. ''

Belicia took a deep breath and felt relieved as she heard these words. She was well aware that her young master had already murdered hundreds of women in order to satisfy his sexual desires.

As a battle maid, normally it was her responsibility to look after her young master's every need and even to bear him a child in the future.

Big families would gather the most talented individuals they could find, train them to be battle maids with all of their resources, and then prepare them to serve the family's heirs. Future generations of the family's genes were strengthened in this way as well.

Battle maids were also generally respected in the family, and their behavior was tolerated as long as it didn't go too far since technically even the head of the family's mother had once served as a battle maid.

Because he knew that, in addition to being a battle maid, Belicia was also following the family head's orders, he was unable to approach her directly.

'Tch, I have no idea what that old man is thinking. He should have just let him die in the slums.'

After giving it some thought and squinting his eyes, the man turned around, walked over to his desk, sat down in his chair, and spoke.

''As I previously stated, I cannot touch you, so you cannot pay the price for betraying me. So I'll settle this with your brother.'' The man said in a sinister tone. Although it couldn't be seen through the bandages, he had a sly grin on his face.
