Chapter 17: Month Since Heroine Adopted in Temple
Chapter 17: Month Since Heroine Adopted in Temple
Maris continued her studies, she studied theology, history, mathematics, and holy arts. Maris was easily able to learn everything.
It's been a month since she started studying.
When she first arrived at the temple, she was skinny. However, her cheeks have filled out after eating three meals a day and snacks.
This created problems for Lucan; she was beautiful and he knew she would grow more beautiful in the future. This is why if more and more people see her, the more popular she will get and the more troubling it will be.
Lucan was a guy who liked to have one or two close people otherwise he didn't want to talk to people.
However, Maris's popularity going to be troublesome for him. For now, he was hiding Maris but one day she will get exposed, and that day, the temple is going to be filled with many people.
Let's endure it. We are doing this to get the best life in this world, the most luxurious, the most respected, and the most important person.
Once Maris is declared a saint and all over people accept her, she will become the most important, respected, and powerful in the world, and as her father, Lucan will also get the top position in this world.
Lucan wants that, and to get that position he would going to do his best.
Besides this, he was thinking he should stop bathing with Maris. She was growing chest and soon might become a full-fledged girl.
However, then he thought and decided to bathe together as long as Maris asked, otherwise he would take a bath alone.
After all, Lucan isn't interested in her, so he doesn't get nervous or think much about bathing together or sleeping together with her.
Lucan knew that in the future she would stop this and start living independently.
Besides this issue, another issue was that he needed to do something about Maris's father.
He can't let Maris go out alone, she stays at the temple and sometimes Lucan takes her to meet Rina or Wanny. While they were out, Maris hid her face with a hat or hooded clothing.
This needed to be done because it might probably be her saint aura or something but he noticed that she was just getting attractive day by day, even though her face didn't change much.
In the future when she grows more beautiful, it's going to create problems, and if her father found that then her father might come back to get her back. Lucan doesn't care if her father comes to get her, he can just send him away or beat him but the problem is when her father tries to do anything shady.
So, it's best to get him arrested. Lucan thought that his friend Morbis could probably handle this but he didn't find any evidence to arrest.
It seems her father is quite cautious and hasn't left any trace. It's troubling, Lucan needs to think of a way to make Maris public but also needs a way to deal with people who have bad intentions towards her.
