The Most Satisfied Reincarnate

"I've also prepared enough 'bodyguards.' So everything is under control. " Desmond narrowed his eyes to see the change in Elizabeth's expression.

But Elizabeth just looked at him innocently while blinking her eyes many times. She nodded and opened her mouth, "Oh." 

Hearing Desmond's preparation, Elizabeth was a little curious. But as always, controlling behavior is a skill which only nobleman had possed. She didn't ask for Demsond's further preparation; she just wanted to continue hearing Desmond's story.

I admit that she really is a princess, both inside and out. Desmond sighed when he saw that Elizabeth was indeed proved her words.

"I have a suggestion; maybe this will give you a little knowledge about the journey to be taken." After hearing Desmond's clear reply, Elizabeth tried to be as severe as possible while clearing her throat.

Unconsciously, Desmond also sit up straight in bed and focused his senses on hearing.

"The journey to the city of Helmfirth can be said to be very long and will take about 3 months."

I know; that's also the information I got from some of the people accompanying Alice, thought Desmond.

"Besides, in the last few cases, there have been a lot of beast races hanging around, which has reduced the bandits who usually rob horse-carriage drastically." This time Elizabeth managed to make a solemn expression; she also gave Desmond deep meaning to her words.

I see, which means that bandits are better because they can be bribed and predictable than creatures who can't think and possibly rampage? Thought Desmond as he nodded his head when he heard the information obtained.

That cute! Meanwhile, when Elizabeth saw Desmond obedient as a puppy, she felt she should pat Desmond on the head in praise.

"* ehm * ... Let's continue." Elizabeth suddenly coughed, making Desmond look at her in confusion. Elizabeth added, "So please be careful, master Desmond." Elizabeth smiled back. Even though she was smiling, Desmond could see the worry in her eyes.

Even Elizabeth just speak briefly, but the conversation between them arguably helped Desmond become aware of the dangers he would face in the future.

What? This just doesn't feel right. But seeing Elizabeth's smile, the way she spoke to him, and now the worry shown to him made Desmond feel uneasy. 

"Don't worry, Miss Elizabeth. The bodyguard I hired is quite strong. " Desmond then looked at Elizabeth's expression and found that her eyes now showed feeling relieved.

Wait ... wait ... if I remember correctly, isn't she that hero boy's childhood friend? To confirm this, Desmond then asked, "Miss Elizabeth, sorry, maybe this is question makes you uncomfortable. Is it true that the boy named Clark is your childhood friend?"

Hearing Desmond's statement, Elizabeth blinked in surprise, "Yes, is it possible that master Desmond has a bad relationship with this friend of mine?" she panicked at the thought that Desmond was offended by Clark's previous actions.

Besides, Elizabeth was also a little surprised by Desmond, who called a child her age as 'boy.' This reminded her of the time when Clark first met Matson and said the same thing.

Maybe because of me? If not, why do I feel that this girl is teasing me? Because of this feeling, Desmond asked about Clark. In his opinion, childhood friends have more potential to become partners. "It doesn't; I'm just curious."

After that, Desmond wanted to end the conversation because he felt that further talk would only interfere with Clark's relationship with Elizabeth.

"Hoho, it is rare for my daughter to come here just to secretly talk to other people." A male voice came from behind Elizabeth.

By the time Desmond heard this voice, he felt like he had heard it somewhere and couldn't remember it clearly. 

Meanwhile, when Elizabeth heard this voice, she panicked. Her face was flushed red, and she wanted to rush to stop the flow of energy in the mirror.

"Not too fast, my daughter." But before Elizabeth can control her energy, she suddenly feels that her body is empty, has no energy. 

It was terrifying… Instantly Desmond knew who it was when he saw Elizabeth smile weakly at him without energy.

Desmond was in a hurry to stop his energy flow, but the same voice stopped him, "You too, boy, have you been secretly talking to my daughter and want to just run away? You, as a man, at least show your sense of responsibility. " A cold voice as cold as ice cubes calling him and the voice like stabbed straight into his heart.

"I didn't mean it like that, your majesty." After Desmond said that, slowly, a giant shadow was revealed right behind Elizabeth and smiled at him.

"You're pretty smart, boy." Edward, who had finished working, tries to find his daughter, but his wife says that his daughter is in the garden.

Happily, Edward headed into the garden and found his daughter showing a smile he had never seen. This made him freeze at the same time, a little disappointed that the smile was not directed at him.

Edward looked at the boy who was in the reflection of the mirror. He has a handsome face, with long brown hair and magical eyes that can attract the attention of the opposite sex.

Even though Edward only saw a half of the boy's body, he knew that this boy had been training hard with only curves showing in every corner of the shirt he was wearing.

Tsk, playboy bastard ... thought Edward. He then looked at her daughter and found her daughter secretly glancing at the boy's face. 

Edward sighed, and he glanced at Desmond, "Listen kid, what family are you from?"

Desmond and Elizabeth were speechless at hearing this.

Elizabeth thought that her father already knew Desmond and investigated him. While Desmond was also a little surprised, but then his lips curled upwards, "This lowly peasant doesn't deserve to mention my family, your majesty. If you don't mind, please excuse me. "

Seeing Desmond's actions and words shocked Edward. This boy understands his position and can also be polite; he praised Desmond in his heart. "Hump, as long as you understand, you can go." Edward snorted and broke the energy between the mirrors.

At first, Edward wanted to step in to remind his position, but upon seeing his behavior, there was nothing to argue about.

When Elizabeth saw this, she felt a pain inside, as if her heart was bleeding. She looked at her father angrily and left sullenly.

Meanwhile, inside Desmond's room.

"Phew ..." Desmond took a deep breath. He was sweating all over his body, and his eyes bulged out. "That was the last boss; the pressure he gave was no joke." Desmond's gaze turned cold as he remembered this.

He did not know if Edward was deliberately giving him that much pressure or by mistake. But one thing is clear to him. "If it wasn't a strange feeling that helped me to withstand the pressure, I might have passed out earlier."

Desmond holds his chest and found the temperature in his chest returned to normal. "Maybe this has something to do with that blood?" While breathing heavily, Desmond closed his eyes, trying to calm his thoughts.

"Young master, I brought you food." Hearing the sound of knocking on the door and his maid, Desmond opened his eyes and frowned.

He then found the afternoon sun shining on half of his body from the window, "Time flies." Desmond muttered and replied, "Come in ..."

Desmond turned around, and as he saw that the maid was Laura, he sighed.

Seeing her young master's behavior, Laura chuckled seductively. She approached Desmond until that her breasts were right in front of Desmond's eye level.

While Laura put the food down, Desmond paid no attention to neither breast nor Laura. He was busy wanting to calm down and think about what to do next.

Laura finally stopped; Desmond opened his eyes and still saw Laura standing beside him and looking back at him with a smile.

"What wrong?" Saying this, Desmond felt dejavu. How many times has this scene been repeated ?! Whenever Laura was beside him after delivering food, she will bring such a piece of unpleasant news. 

"Young master, actually some maids heard strange noises from the basement of our house." Seeing Laura's gaze, Desmond understood what she meant. This voice came from the underground that was always kept secret

Because he was too tired at that time, Desmond forgot to check the state of the room. Maybe some dragon blood came back to life, hahaha, Desmond thought in his mind.

From the outside, he could be seen laughing awkwardly while looking straight at Laura. The gaze from Desmond also made Laura avert her gaze.

"..." Desmond

Desmond then got up from the bed and walked out of his room into the backyard. But he turned and saw that Laura was still following him even until he arrived.

This made the atmosphere awkward; Desmond looked at Laura. "Hmm?"

"I am ready at any time if the young master needs me." Laura immediately replied with enthusiasm and a loud voice.

"Lower your voice and wait here." Desmond gave her orders and then entered the underground.

Laura, who saw Desmond open the door to the underground behind the bushes, was excited. She was eager to open the door and see the contents of the underground, but she held back the desire so as not to cross the boundary that all the maids in Desmond's house knew.
