The Noble Lady of Lust

Chapter 99: Legacy Reward

More than one was shocked to discover this truth about William, but some seemed to know it, like alexader and Silvia.

Even though the idiot had said it a few times, no one really believed it, since the only ones with that blessing are the royal family, and they just thought he was joking.

Mike and Ban looked on with their mouths open. Previously he had introduced himself, but in the end, they just passed it off as nothing. Now they realized how real it was.

Besides, that crow was just talking pure garbage. The god of light, while sponsoring William to give him a blessing and give him a quest, should almost never be watching. Otherwise, my protection from lust would notice him.

At most he should have left a Familiar to handle William until he grows old enough to be of use to the god of light. So that stuff about him approving and whatnot is pure garbage.

Not to mention that this examination is done by the first king. At most, the god of light lent him a piece of domain to do it.

but even taking all that into account, I’m curious what is so special about Willian that the god of light made him his agent at such an early stage?.

..

everyone seemed excited and happy as they listened to the things the raven was talking about, things related to the first king and the god of light, everyone seemed excited and happy.

Even Elena. that if I didn’t dream it, I explained to her what we were going to do and what it was all about and what she should do in case things didn’t turn out as expected, but well experiences like these are unique and if she is having fun, good for her.

What really surprises me is that everyone is very calm, even with how brutal the last test was, but it could also be because I had more internal problems than I thought and mine is especially difficult.

I wondered if I was the only one who almost died for real. As far as I know, only the first and third examinations could hurt you and make it look like you died, and even the last one according to Silvia even if you failed you were still transported to this room, like Ban and Mike but I had never felt so close to death since I was reincarnated as I did today .

At the end, the crow talked about the exploits of the first king and how he gained the favor and recognition of the god of light and other things that don’t matter.

Before he was asked, he said that William was going through a different examination which I already knew.

Finally, he let us go on as he led us to the place where we would receive our reward based on our accomplishments. He took us to what looked like a giant vault.

”This place is where the first king left things that will serve for the next age of the gods and will serve to nurture the future generation. Everyone can see a number in front of them, which is the amount of points they have, and as you can see, every object in this room has a value. You will decide what you want, so choose wisely.”

He began to explain obviously showing us a room with many treasures that was certainly good for our current level, but I knew that was not all and I waited for him to continue, but he said nothing and just stood there looking at us waiting for us to choose, I had no choice but to speak while feigning ignorance.

”Excuse me, Mr. Raven, I want to ask you a question, what are the crystal keys for, I got four while we were doing the examination”.

At that moment he looked at me with a complicated face, to see a crow with that face is quite an experience, it seemed as if he didn’t want to say anything.

I was surprised because according to what I knew at the time he should explain to us what the glass keys were for and show us the rest, with his other body.

but obviously now he didn’t want to tell us, and the difference is that before they could only find one and now I have four?

’....Oh! so that’s it’

In the end, as if obliged, he had no choice but to start talking.

”w-well young people it seems that I had forgotten that you certainly got all the keys of the examinations certainly are more than what the first king predicted, t-the keys serve to go to the following nivel of the vault.”

Saying that he flew to the end of the vault that had many things and in another door with a lock, we all followed them and looked at the new door with a lock, attentively and at that moment, out of nowhere appeared another being surprising us all.

in fact I expected it but the bastard appreciated exactly to my side and almost attacked him by reaction, when I saw him I noticed how he looked at me with a little hatred and connecting the dots and I knew why.

”I am Mirk, the steward of this domain,” he said as the normal raven was habsorved by his body, ’from now on I will personally take charge,’.

Another being appeared who seemed to be a guide with a humanoid body dressed in a refined suit, so far so good but his head was that of a fucking golden crow, similar to the previous one.

”You passed the tests and completed the hidden tasks proving that you are an outstanding group, the keys are used to open the next levels of the coil where better items await you, keep in mind that just like this you only have a certain number of points, you can get many from this first level or just one from the last level if you know what I mean.”

’So that’s what was going on, you greedy bastard.’

Well in the end I took out all the keys and gave them to him and he opened the door where I noticed that there were more treasures, and we continued until we used all four keys and arrived at the last room.

There were only ten objects, but the moment I saw it I realized that what was really valuable was here and just by seeing what was there I understood that the first king had definitely come a long way when he was alive.

I realized that everything here was meant for growth or use by future generations.

from the first room to the last there was a lot of stuff, There were things like teleportation scrolls, protection, gems inside with engraved runes like the runes of lava, mist, poison, and other things beyond this small realm.

Of course, there were simplified versions of spells, which in the end was a whole branch of magic. There were also weapons to which I had generously put seals so that we could use them and, over time, continue to unlock the seals to make them stronger.

I saw recipes and knowledge, and I wondered why, if he was the first king, he didn’t share this with his nation. But, if I think about it, too much power in a peaceful era can be a problem, so it’s better to have it now in this era of the gods.

Maybe it was an agreement he made with the god of light to balance his karma and not to destroy what he had to build, or maybe, who knows, he simply did not want to share the knowledge or could not, there could be many reasons, but in the end the important thing is that it is now here for us to take.

But there were certainly many good things here, and there were even plants and medicines that become more effective the longer they are preserved, some of which even seemed older than the creation of this Dominion.

There was everything, and I realized this was what King Maximilian I had collected throughout his life.

As the crow said, everything has a price, and even when I quantified my efforts, knowing I had done the most, I realized I could only take 4 objects from the fine coil, where there were no more than 10 objects.

In the last vault, among those 10 items I realized there was something I was about to add to my list of things to find, and I didn’t think it would be so easy to find it right away.

’what luck’.

I couldn’t believe Serafina’s luck, and I meant that if, the object in front of me was something I needed and the main thing, to complete the deal with her, that I made a few moments ago, I was seriously thinking where the hell would I find a divine beast egg or a newborn,

’that saves me from having to become a kidnapper or negotiate with the goddess’.

Seraphian who was the one who wanted to free herself had already thought about where to get them, the first option was to negotiate or ask my patron goddess, the bitch of purity, for a divine beast, and the other was if she failed she would kidnap the one that William got in this domain at this moment, together with the main legacy, but now it was not necessary, it was as if Seraphian had a colossal luck.

There was a lot of things, and the rest, I couldn’t even think of conceiving something from the last vault, besides the things, they were not easy to use, I would say that the egg is the only thing that could help improve the strength of the rest, they would benefit more from the four vault for below.....

In the end, we even had a group meeting to make sure we didn’t choose the same ones, and we came to an agreement when we had something in common that we wanted, .

I had more than I originally came for, and I was more than satisfied. It was worth it, even to be close to someone as dangerous as William.

When we finally made our choice, I sneaked past Elena, and we did what we planned. Well, for anyone who saw us, I simply walked by her.

..

.

And finally...

”I’m glad everyone was satisfied. I expect great things from you in the future.”

Saying that, suddenly a nervous William appeared and looked at us, not knowing what to say.

Not long after, a portal or rift opened and started to pull us out until finally, we could all be outside. I whispered to Selene and Eira that the time had come, and they both nodded in agreement.

well with that everything is almost done, now bin it’s time to create my alibi, thinking this I went ahead and spoke.

”it was indeed an interesting experience. Well, William, changing the subject since you deceived us and lied, you should be prepared for the consequences, right”.

I said as I looked at William, who looked nervous. After we regrouped, silence invaded the place until I finally spoke.

”Yes, it’s true. I’m sorry for bringing you all here without saying anything. No matter what you want to do to me, I’m willing to do it.”

Now he looked dejected , It would have been nice if Silvia had spoken up to defend him, but he didn’t move.

Well, what did I expect? Honestly, I was a little worried, as this could have been the catalyst for him to become a yandere, but anyway it’s not like it affects me so I won’t think about it. In the end, before anyone said anything I approached William and said:

”Come on, just kidding. You were doing it thinking of us, weren’t you? You knew we couldn’t die, and we could get stronger. It was probably a revelation from the god of light, so you couldn’t do anything. So don’t worry about it. For now, how about this: you’re a count now, aren’t you? I hope you have money, because you’re buying the drinks today.”

I sincerely said that no one was harmed, and everything was nothing but benefit, not to mention that the greedy idiot Mirk tried to kill me, it was all good, but knowing him I knew he felt guilty for lying to us, and I would take advantage of that, to celebrate in a big way, and leave no doubt of my inosence of what is happening at this moment.

”Right, it’s true what you said, but it’s still my fault. Don’t worry, I’ll ask my father to prepare a big feast today.”

”Oh, that’s the way I like it, ’Dynamite Team’ 2.0 walking!!!”

”....”(x4)

Those who knew what I was referring to looked at me funny, and those who didn’t asked the rest.

”Hey, what’s this dynamite team 2.0 stuff?”

”Don’t worry about it, just nod and ignore it.”

”Hey Mike, explain well. everybody now belong to the dynamite team and.... I mean....., it’s nothing...., we’re going to drink until dawn.”

Well, whatever, it’s not important. I mean, it’s not like I was scared or anything because elena suddenly started bringing George out of nowhere, when she was about to explain that everyone was now part of team dynamite.....

Now that I look at it, it’s in the afternoon. Did we spend a whole day or just a few hours? Well, in places like this time is distorted, as long as it hasn’t been more than a day everything was fine. The important thing now is to go drinking.
