Chapter 166: I See This As An Absolute Win
Albert returned to Seika Town after getting a bountiful harvest. He had leveled up many times during this one trip, so he was quite satisfied.
As soon as he came home, he planned to get a 5-Star Spell, which would be important for him for his next plan.
Surprisingly, Yale and the others weren't idle either. They mastered all their current abilities so that they wouldn't become Albert's burden anymore in the fight.
Also, they hunted in the nearby places and utilized the Horny Jail to get some levels for themselves, surprising Albert by the sudden leap of their levels.
That would certainly shock him if Albert didn't raise his levels too much. At this point, his strength was already beyond Shella. The rest couldn't catch up to him anymore.
The only way to regain a bit of that balance was to participate in the war and focus on his disciples.
After settling everything down, they received a visit from the brothel manager.
Because Lilith and Agnis' speed was beyond Albert's, they returned to the castle faster than him and got enough time to discuss Albert's reward.
The manager told him Lilith wanted to talk with him personally. Unfortunately, because she needed to take care of the volcano as well as other stuff, she was extremely busy that she couldn't talk to him directly in Seika Town.
Albert understood the situation and didn't mind talking through the transmission mirror.
As soon as Albert stood in front of the transmission mirror, the manager activated it so that he could talk with Lilith.
Lilith's figure soon appeared in the mirror. Seeing they were connected, she put down the paper on her hand and waved her hand. "Oh, you're here!"
"Yeah." Albert nodded with a calm expression. "So, what do you want to talk about?"
Lilith took a look at the people around her first before nodding her head. After that, she turned to Albert and continued, "The information is too great. Although I still have a hard time communicating with the salamander, we have gotten some mutual understanding. At the very least, he won't be too much."
"That's good."
"I wish you were here."
"I can't translate for you all the time. I still have some stuff to do." Albert shrugged.
"I know." Lilith chuckled. "Anyway, I want to talk about your reward. I need to confirm this first. Do you have anything in mind?"
"Not really. I have enough money to last me for a while and a good place to live." Albert shrugged.
"In that case, I have a proposal." Lilith smirked playfully.
"I'm all ears."
"Do you want to get married?"
"Huh?" Albert was startled as he subconsciously dropped his jaw. "What did you say?"
"You heard it right. I want to know whether you want to get married or not?" Lilith made a cheeky smile.
Albert was stunned for a moment, processing what she had just asked in his mind. "What the heck? I think I have told you that I'm not planning to get into a relationship. Besides, I don't have any partner to do that."
"You don't need to care about that. I have prepared your partner for you if you want to get married. She's a capable, caring, loving, sexy, beautiful whatever praise you can think of!"
"Huh? Are you going to force that kind of perfect woman to marry me? There's no need to." Albert shook his head. "Marriage will just chain me down."
"No, it won't. Your wife will allow you to travel anywhere. She doesn't mind."
"Still, it's sad to be separated from your other half. I'm not planning to settle down for the time being. So, I won't get married." Albert waved his hand, rejecting her offer.
"Then, how about getting engaged first?" Lilith asked.
"What?"
"I will betroth you with her, so you can know her a bit more. I'm sure you will love her!" Lilith smirked.
"You have been mentioning her this whole time, but I don't even know her."
"No. You know her very well."
Albert tilted his head in confusion. There were only a few people from the Lust Kingdom he knew personally.
The person he knew the longest and wouldn't mind following him on adventuring There was only such a person.
"Don't tell me it's Erica?"
"Huh?" Lilith was startled by Albert's response and felt a bit hurt.
"Huh?" Albert was also confused by her response.
"I'm talking about me!" Lilith pouted and squinted her eyes.
"What the heck?!"
"I am capable, caring, loving, most beautiful, and whatever you want to say." Lilith gently bumped her chest with a proud look. "I can go to wherever you are with my power. I also have enough power to protect you even without personally being there. There are so many things I can do if I'm engaged with you."
Albert didn't know from where this kind of idea came to her head.
"I mean seriously?"
"Yeah. I'm serious."
"Is this one of the examples of a political marriage?" Albert frowned. "I think I have told you that the person who will be with me"
Before she finished, she continued those words for him, "should have a feeling for you."
Albert widened his eyes in disbelief, realizing what was going on. It suddenly struck deep in his heart. 'She likes me?'
"Hehe." Lilith chuckled and winked her right eye. "How is it? Your reward this time is a wife!"
"Let's talk about it first." Albert pinched the bridge of his nose. He thought of Lilith as a friend this whole time because he never had a plan to settle down for the time being. To think the situation had become like this.
Lilith asked, "Am I not beautiful to you?"
"No, you're beautiful. The most beautiful person I've ever seen." Albert shook his head, answering her answer honestly.
"In that case, have I made you angry at something? I want to apologize right now and learn from my mistake."
"I don't think so. You respect my boundary even though you can use your status to suppress or even force me to answer you. Instead, you've been friendly"
"Then, do you like me?"
"I enjoyed our time. Though, I never had a thought like this."
"I know that you don't want to settle down right now. That's why we can get engaged first!" Lilith smiled.
"No, no. The real question is, who the heck gave this idea to you?!" Albert tilted his head in confusion.
"Ehm" Lilith scratched the back of her head and said, "I already had this thought for a while But I guess what the salamander drew yesterday became the catalyst?"
"That damn Lizard!"
