Today is my last week in the acade before my imrsion in Sklavryet. I am still weighing on letting the people in that territory know that I am visiting or maybe not. They did give a formal invitation before when we all t at Miren and I totally appreciate the respect and the importance they have given to . The problem is, they are not my main reason for going to that region. I do think that letting them know will make it easier to make my cover more believable though since the whole territory will corroborate with my story. The elves and heralds are very careful with the people they let in their territory during the annual event and I can't risk getting caught or else I have to wait for another year. Nische can't wait that long. I have a strong feeling that if I don't act on it now, I may lose him. I know he's immortal and a deity at that but everything and everyone can disappear if fate wills it. I don't want that to happen to my little seed.
My thoughts have suddenly gone to so depressing matters again. I tried to take deep breaths but instead of happy thoughts, my mind has suddenly veered into a different direction for so reason. I suddenly rembered that it wasn't just the people of Sklavryet that I t at Miren on that day but also the entourage from the magic tower which includes the current grandmaster. I then rembered Keeran and I think I am kind of at ease that there are no ssages asking for urgent help from that side. No news ans good news in this case, I guess. I can't help but wonder though why they have not sent an engagent proposal yet when it was the grandmaster that fervently pushed for it. The last docunts I got from them were for the contracted work I will do for them. It simply shows how many questions I needed to answer in a set amount of ti and how much compensation I will be getting for each one. I have a strong feeling that I think, the guy who is supposed to be the other party in the engagent may have been stubbornly trying to stop the docunt from being sent to . My first eting with him at the entertainnt district a few months ago says it all. He is a haughty and proud person and most likely, he strongly dislikes the fact that I am planning to take him in but he was simply an add on, a benefit included with doing business with the magic tower. I am indeed getting a lot of financial benefits from this partnership and whether they want to take him in or not doesn't concern ne, honestly. I never thought of him as a sentintal or hopeless romantic person though.
I still have a couple of days and I just rembered sothing that I have placed on the end of my list of things to do for so long. I have to visit my little slave at the entertainnt district, Lark. Ioannis gave his point of view on the issue with Lark and I realized that I may overreacted a bit at that ti from all the stress I was in. Once I got these list of ideas in my head, I imdiately acted on it. I bid the people at the villa goodbye and told everyone that I have an important errand that I need to finish today so I will be out for a few hours. They can just eat dinner by themselves if I have not arrived by that ti. Yren and Aurum shared a look and I knew that they were planning to follow to wherever I needed to go. I looked at them on purpose and smiled sweetly, clearly telling them that I know what they are planning. Both of them looked away from each other as if denying that silent agreent that they had through that bried eye contact. I simply turned around as if ignoring them and walked leisurely towards the main door of the villa but just as I touched the door seemingly planning to open it, I quickly teleported straight to the room of questions at the magic tower. Good luck on tracking guys. I don't care if you get upset.
Once I appeared in the tower, I imdiately felt that I hit so type of barrier. Did they actually set up so kind of an alarm system in this place that was ant to detect my presence. I hope that it was just the grandmaster that was alerted by my presence and not his annoying grandson. An attendant then quickly appeared in the room where I was in within a span of 2 minutes. That was a really quick response. The attendant started welcoming to the tower using the usual spiel of the receptionist and respectfully asked to follow him to the grandmaster's office at the top floor. As for , I continued looking into the wall filled with questions and though not part of the contract, I took five of the oldest and hardest questions, walked past the attendant and then sat on one of the unoccupied seats with a large table in front of it. I started scribbling equations and explanations on the sheets of paper and encircled the very important details to make sure the researchers who would verify my answers won't miss them. I then placed my unique stamp on each piece of the answer sheets and then attached the questions on them. Everything took about 10 minutes to complete. As for the attendant, he patiently watched in silence as I finished answering the questions. I can see him observing closely and trying to forcefully hide his amazent on how quickly I answered the questions. He kept his face calm and collected. He must be trained not to show too much of his thoughts on his face. I looked at him and said, "Lead to the grandmaster." He then imdiately led the way to the magic platform (aka magic elevator in my terms).
It took barely 5 minutes for to reach the top floor and get into the grandmaster's room. Grandpa Mage looked really happy when he saw . He imdiately held my hands and led to sit in the soft cushions on one side of his office. We simply talked about random things and checked on how each one is doing. I then told him that I already have a child on the way with my first husband. I saw his eyes sparkle with yearning. He must really want to have a little grandchild of his own that he can carry around and teach new things to, not unlike the stubborn and grown up one he has right now. Well, that depends if I and the owner of the womb that will bear that child will co into terms and get to that stage. I gave him two orbs of my mana essence and told him to give it to the guy in case the previous one I gave has been used up. I then told him that I will be away for two months for an imrsion class I am taking and it will be quite far from Hoffen City. I then asked him about the engagent proposal he talked about previously and he made a heavy sigh. He said that his stubborn grandson hated the idea and he even asked how much money you need for the orbs you provided him and so he can pay it since the only thing you needed was money. I scoffed then laughed at his feigned sadness. I then smiled at the grandmaster and asked him, "I trust that you still made that engagent proposal even if he didn't want to have any part of it, right?" He then smiled back at naughtily and said, "Of course, my granddaughter. You know well. I even put the extracted part of his mana when he was unconscious so that I could get his mana signature. I prepared the sturdiest mana contract I can make." I laughed at Grandpa Mage and shook my head. I then took the mana contract from his hand and as he watched, I transford the mana contract further into an unbreakable mana contract using mystique mana. His eyes widened in shock and then he looked back at . He then stuttered, "This... Are you going to officially accept the engagent?" I laughed and replied, "What if I tell you that I simply want to annoy your grandson for the rest of his life? I won't force him though. This is just an engagent docunt anyway. I put an expiration of six months on it. If it doesn't work, it expires and it is considered void. I have placed a little add on too where as the contact dissolves, his feeling of resonance towards and all his mories about will disappear too. He can then continue to live on as he was. If sothing too intimate happens between us though, the contract becos permanent but his title will beco a "husband" instead of the supposed fiancé." Grandpa Mage laughed and said, "That would be fun to watch. He should know how it feels when he annoys every day. It serves him right." I shook my head and laughed. I then discussed with him if he is open to being part of my family. He imdiately understood what I ant and nodded. He then told , "The longer I live, the more ti I have to research about magic and improve my circle rank. I can also watch over that punk a little longer." I then gave him 3 bottles of pills that I previously gave my in-laws. I gave him precautions and he simply said, his body can absorb it better since he has innate mana. I asked about Lia and she agreed with that fact. At least he won't be in pain like the others. Since the mystique mana contract has been completed, I simply signed it by inserting my mana into it. The mana contract turned to sparkles of light as it went inside my body. The other half of the sparkles went out the door and you could guess to whom it is going to. I felt a strong mana surge making its way into the grandmaster's room and I simply stood up to bid the grandmaster goodbye. He then laughed and at that ti, loud and hurried knocks sounded outside Granpa Mage's office door. My fiancé is here. How delightful. I looked at the grandmaster and whispered, "Let him in and as he sees my face, I will teleport out of here." Grandpa Mage giggled like a child and nodded. He then shouted towards the door, "Co in!" Damn. The door almost flew out of its hinges as he pushed it open. He then looked at the grandmaster and then his eyes landed on . He was shocked at first then his face turned red. He stomped on the ground towards . I simply smirked at him and then teleported out of the magic tower to my next destination.
