The Maid, Sentouki Aya (4,000 characters-please subscribe) (continued)
"What's wrong, Nangong Natsuki? Did you go crazy after going out on errands with the master?"
Sentouki Aya looked at Nangong Natsuki expressionlessly and spoke in a cold, sarcastic tone.
Hmm, I'm definitely not fully awake yet; I should still be inside the Prison Barrier!
Nangong Natsuki covered her chest with both hands, feeling the newly signed contract, and confirmed that she was not dreaming.
She stared blankly at William sitting opposite her, her delicate face displaying a complex expression.
Once all the impossibilities have been eliminated, even the most unlikely thing becomes the only truth.
At that moment, she suddenly remembered that William had said something to her on the way back, something that seemed to have no context.
She watched as Sentouki Aya respectfully performed her duties as a maid.
"Perhaps only in this way can you give up your unrealistic fantasies, A-Ye!"
Nangong Natsuki didn't stay at home for long, as she was eager to be out on the street, basking in the sunshine.
Furthermore, she wanted to use her real body to teach her students.
"Master, would you like me to serve you in bed to relieve your stress?"
What kind of feeling would a man have if a cold, expressionless maid said those words to him?
Excitement, thrill, I couldn't wait to tear the stockings off the woman's legs and watch the moment her expression changed.
William felt a similar urge, but he didn't act on it immediately.
Since Sentouki Aya is already completely loyal to his maid under his guidance, there's no need to rush things.
Of course, the more important reason is that he has something more important for her to do now.
"Don't rush that, A-Ye, I have another task for you."
"Master, please give your orders!"
Sentouki Aya immediately took a step back, kneeling on one knee, her full breasts pressed against her knee as a result.
"Go back to the Library first. As for how you escaped, make up a reason yourself."
"I will send someone over later to help you take over the Library's power completely."
Having shared Sentouki Aya's memories, he knew very well that although Sentouki Aya was the leader of the Library, he didn't actually have much say within it.
The true power in the Library lies with the council of elders. Sentouki Aya is merely a puppet who was placed in power because of her outstanding abilities.
"Understood, Your Majesty!"
"By the way, you should also have a good talk with your daughter; after all, she's also a blood relative of yours."
"Yes!"
Sentouki Aya bowed her head again in agreement, her eyes containing a complex expression.
The reception room windows overlook a luxurious dry landscape Japanese garden!
At this moment, a group of people were sitting around a low table in the reception room, all of them with solemn expressions.
These people are all prominent figures on Island of Gen'ei: city councilors, well-known entrepreneurs, high-ranking officials from the Artificial Island Management Corporation, and combat captains from the Attack Mage troop!
Bang!
The somewhat thin young man slammed his fist on the table.
"I said back then that we shouldn't approve of the Lion King Agency holding the Feast of Blazing Light here."
"What can we do now? They're just sitting on the island and won't leave, and we're completely helpless."
"There's nothing we can do. The Yase Faction has too much influence; even if we wanted to object, it would be futile."
Beside him, an elderly man with white hair spoke in a helpless tone.
He was also an opponent back then, but their few dissenting votes were simply not enough.
"There's no point in saying all this now. The most important thing is to analyze why this Spirit King stayed here after the banquet ended."
This time, it was a very tall, robust man with a serious expression who spoke.
At first glance, he looks more like a gangster boss from somewhere.
This person is none other than the leader of the Lan Yu Faction, the only Yase Faction on Island of Gen'ei capable of rivaling the Yase Faction, which controls Island of Gen'ei — Lan Yu Xian Zhai.
"What's the Lion King Agency saying now?"
Lan Yu Xian Zhai frowned, glanced at her secretary, and asked in a relatively gentle tone.
"I just contacted them again, but the Lion King Agency said they are not capable of handling this matter at the moment."
The secretary pushed up her glasses and answered helplessly.
"Damn it, I knew we couldn't trust the local intelligence agencies."
"Whether it's the Taishi Bureau or the Lion King Agency, they're all the same. They treat us very well when they need us, but when they don't, they just abandon us like expendable pawns."
The frequent complaints revealed the deep resentment these Lan Yu Faction officials harbored towards the local intelligence agencies.
"Um, Lord Aiba, is it possible that His Majesty the Spirit King simply knows the secrets of Island of Gen'ei wants to take it over for himself?"
As the argument raged on, a young entrepreneur who looked noticeably younger raised his hand and spoke up.
Those seated here are all high-ranking members of Island of Gen'ei; perhaps others are unaware of the significance of Island of Gen'ei.
But they are fully aware of this; in fact, one could say they are among the very few who know the most secret things in the world.
Everyone in the conference room fell into silence.
Just moments ago, this room was as noisy and chaotic as a market, but now it's so quiet that you could hear a pin drop clearly.
"No... that's unlikely! The only people who would know about this are... those ancient vampires, and the group from... the island where it was made back then."
"His Majesty the Spirit King has only just arrived in this world; the people he's come into contact with shouldn't know these things!"
The middle-aged man immediately retorted.
The fact that this island served as Altar of Cain was known to a considerable number of people, though not a small number either.
