My System Increases My power Every Day Without Missions and Levelling Chapter 259: Confuse

"Prince," Richard replied.

He himself wasn’t sure what kind of emotion he felt when he saw the son of the Red Star Empress.

Still, he was quite certain that he didn’t feel awkward or uneasy. That was why he could remain relaxed.

"Did you et my mother?" Prince Alex asked.

"Yes." Richard nodded without denying it.

"For what purpose?" Prince Alex was rely puzzled and didn’t think too deeply about it.

Even so, his instincts told him that sothing might be unusual.

Naturally, Richard needed to think before answering the question.

"I think it wouldn’t be appropriate for to tell you," he said after a brief mont of thought.

"Why? Is there so crucial issue?" Prince Alex was very surprised by that answer.

"It’s not a problem... Well, it wouldn’t be suitable for to say it. You should ask the Empress directly."

After saying that, Richard left, leaving Prince Alex in confusion.

Alex then stepped into the house.

At the mont, the Red Star Empress was spacing out on the sofa, wearing a variety of expressions.

Fortunately, nothing about her appearance looked disheveled.

However, the way she was sitting was sowhat unusual for soone who always projected an elegant image.

Even when she saw Alex, she was clearly startled.

"Alex, you’re back," she said.

Even her tone of voice wasn’t like her usual self.

In truth, the Red Star Empress was panicking, thinking that if she and Richard had been intimate for any longer, they might not have noticed Alex’s return—and Alex could have witnessed their actions.

"Mother, what’s wrong with you?" Alex asked, noticing that his mother was very different today.

"What do you an? Why are you asking that?" the Red Star Empress replied, pretending to be confused.

"I’m the one who should be asking," Prince Alex said.

"Is there a problem? Richard said I should ask you directly."

Red Star Empress, "..."

"You’re overthinking it. There’s nothing serious... Anyway, tomorrow I’m going to Boundless City. While I’m away, don’t go anywhere unless you ask the elders to escort you. I won’t be able to help if sothing happens."

After saying that, the Red Star Empress went to her room.

She couldn’t feel at ease with anyone and preferred to be alone.

Once inside her room, she locked all the doors.

Phew!

She let out a relieved sigh, sat on the bed, then lay down.

And once again, the scene of Richard sucking on her nipple surfaced in her mind.

She still had clear mories of when Richard was just a little boy. Now he was grown—and that was what he had done to her.

The Red Star Empress knew she couldn’t keep thinking about whether it was appropriate or not. The problem was that she couldn’t refuse, and she had already decided to go to Boundless City tomorrow.

DING!

(Your mastery of the Codex of the Dragon Emperor has increased from 65% to 80%!)

Codex of the Dragon Emperor (80%)

This notification surprised Richard a little, as it had been a long ti since the System had increased the mastery of one of his Codices.

It was quite pleasing.

After all, if it reached 100%, the innate Arcane Art of that Codex—Dragon Transformation—would be unlocked.

However, Richard wasn’t sure the System would help him reach that point, considering that even the Dragon Knight himself hadn’t achieved it until becoming a Grand Sovereign.

One thing was certain. After his mastery of the Codex of the Dragon Emperor reached 80%, Richard felt he had much better control over his current power. He even felt that breaking through the final bottleneck of this realm would be much easier.

It was already night, and he decided not to return to the palace.

Instead, he went to one of the city’s military headquarters near one of the gates.

This wasn’t without reason. The headquarters was led by Augus himself, who now held the rank of deputy commander.

From afar, Richard could already see the blond young man on the balcony of the headquarters, discussing sothing with several soldiers, so of whom were older than him.

A large map—the map of the capital—was laid out on the table. They seed to be discussing improvents to the capital’s security, which was indeed part of Lilith’s current program to prepare for the arrival of the Order of the Heaven Emperor.

When Richard flew toward the balcony, he didn’t conceal his presence.

Augus and his soldiers imdiately noticed him.

Almost instinctively, they all stood up with frozen expressions.

Realizing that Richard had co to see him, Augus quickly gestured for his soldiers to leave.

They understood that their deputy commander was a friend of the current king, so they didn’t hesitate to go.

After all, it was impossible for the king to co for them—he must have co to see his friend.

"Richard!" Augus greeted him warmly.

Richard imdiately took a seat.

"How are these new recruits?" Richard asked, gesturing for him to sit as well.

"Very good. I like them a lot. It’s thanks to you," Augus replied. "Who would’ve thought I’d be so lucky to be your friend at the orphanage?"

"If I rember correctly, we didn’t beco friends naturally—I forced you into submission," Richard replied.

Augus, "..."

He gave a helpless, bitter smile.

"That’s true. That was the event that changed my fate," he said, unable to deny it.

"How’s your married life with Emma?" Richard changed the topic, imdiately making Augus grin widely.

"Brother Richard, you know, I’m almost as handso as you," he said excitedly, even adding the word Brother when addressing Richard.

"Emma rejected many tis. But after our relationship beca official and she had no choice but to share a room with , I only needed a little touch to make her spread her legs for . Yesterday, she even ca to herself to have sex. But once she calms down, she usually turns cold again—even toward ."

Augus’s story sounded amusing to Richard, making him smile. He replied, "Won are always like that. Actually, it’s very easy to make them spread their legs."

"You must be having wonderful nights, Brother Richard." Augus couldn’t help but grin broadly upon hearing those words, knowing that Richard was happy with the queen.

If Augus knew that Richard had been intimate with the Red Star Empress, who knew how he would react.

That was certainly not sothing Richard would tell anyone.

And so, the night passed with him spending ti chatting with Augus.
