Chapter 105

*Swish, splash.*

Elise wiped every inch of Ottos damp, sweaty body with a cold washcloth.

Then she dried him off with another dry towel.

Mmmmmm.

Ottos face relaxed a bit, indicating that his fever had cooled.

But Elise didnt end it there, though.

*Sshhh*

Elises hands, glistening with blue mana, massaged every inch of Ottos body.

The mana in her hands soaked into Ottos skin and muscles, helping him to recover.

It didnt stop there.

It penetrated into every nook and cranny of his blood vessels, ridding them of impurities.

Fianc. Recovering well is also training, allowing you to return to your training in the best possible condition.

Then.

*Creak!*

Feeling a sudden strong presence, Camille opened the bedroom door and locked eyes with Elise, who was massaging Otto.

!

Camille was stunned.

Already?

Camille freaked out, thinking Elise was going to eat Otto.

Otto in just his underwear.

And Elise, whos fondling him.

No matter how he looked at it, it was that kind of scene.

You dont have to worry about anything.

Elise said to Camille.

I I hope you have a good time.

Camille bowed his head in respect, then turned on his heel and left the bedroom.

Then.

Is he asleep?

It was then that Conrad visited Ottos bedroom.

He was worried about Otto and wanted to make certain he was sleeping well.

Youve been through a lot. Why dont you just get some rest? Our knights will be guarding this place anyway.

Ah, yes.

Is he sleeping well, and not tossing and turning? I heard he took some medication.

Thats.

Just checking in to see how my grandson is doing.

I dont think you should go in there right now.

Um, what do you mean?

Well, Lady Elise is inside.

Wha, what?!

Well, thats what happened.

Camille trailed off, turning his head to avoid Conrads gaze.

Huh. Is this how they say theyre fast?

Arent all young men and women fast these days?

However, its still like that

I have nothing more to say.

Well, these young people these days.

Conrad shook his head slightly and then turned to walk away.

Meanwhile, Otto

Mmm. There, there. No. Hmm. Oh, yeah, thats it. Hmph. Hmph. Hmph.

Elise frowned slightly as Otto suddenly let out a lustful moan, but she quickly shook it off.

And then.

Mmm?

Otto groggily opened his eyes.

!

Ottos eyes locked with Elises.

*Bam!*

Elise hit Otto in the head.

Thud!

Otto was struck squarely in the top of the head by Elises fist, and was instantly knocked unconscious.

Afterward, Elise continued to massage every inch of Ottos body as if nothing had happened.

However, the area she massaged most intensively was.

You must be thinking a lot. You must have a lot of tension built up in your head.

Elise concentrated her massage on Ottos head and neck.

The area around Ottos head was incredibly stiff.

This was due to his habit of frowning while thinking about various things.

So, Otto would complain of headaches even when nothing in particular hurt.

When the muscles around your head are tight, not only do you get a headache, but you also have poor circulation. Your brain is important to improve your swordsmanship. Your mana core. The heart. And the brain. Only when these three components are evenly balanced will you reach new heights.

Mm-hmm.

Ill teach you in time, but for now, get some quality sleep.

Elise gently eased the muscles around Ottos head and dressed him again before she rose from her position.

The next morning.

Mmmmmmm!

After his first good nights sleep in a long time, Otto stretched and leapt out of bed.

Are you awake?

Good morning!

Otto greeted Camille cheerfully.

I had a good nights sleep, and my body is all refreshed! Why do I feel so light today? I feel like I could fly!

Isnt it normal for you to be tired?

Huh? Why do you think that?

You had a big event last night.

What bullshit.

Otto frowned and glanced at Camille as though he didnt know what the hell that meant.

I slept pretty good for the first time in a long time, so dont pull this nonsense.

.

A man needs a good nights sleep after all, you know?

After saying that, Otto made his way to the table where breakfast was laid out with only the lightest of steps.

Did nothing really happen?

Nothing?

Thats why Im asking you if anything happened last night.

Nothing happened, I just slept well.

Okay.

I think I had a dream, though.

What did you dream about?

Something about a really beautiful woman pouncing on me, but I dont remember much about it. I think it felt pretty good.

..

Im glad it was interrupted, though. Its a damn shame when youre this old and dreaming. Ugh. Thats horrible to imagine. Imagine squatting in the bathroom alone, secretly washing ones underwear. How embarrassing would that be?

Thats not a dream.

Huh?

Its nothing.

Camille was about to tell him that it wasnt a dream, but he restrained himself.

Did it happen to you while you were sleeping, oh my god.

Camille is dizzy with the enormity of the discovery.

Your Highness, are you all right?

One of the magic swordsmen guarding Ottos quarters approached and said.

What? Why all of a sudden, Im fine?

Its just that it seems we had an intruder during the night.

What?

Twenty knights who were guarding the perimeter of your quarters were found knocked out cold.

Wha?

Fortunately, theyre all alive and well except for a rather sizable lump on their heads, but still, its a serious breach of security.

Im good? Though thats kind of frightening.

Otto wore a grim expression.

Why? Who could it be?

No matter how he thought about it, there was no way an assassin could be trying to kill him at this stage of development.

For now, we will increase the number of security personnel. I am truly sorry, Young Lord.

No, you guys have had enough trouble because of me. Please take care of the injured knights. I will also be particularly vigilant.

Thank you for your kind consideration, Young Lord.

Otto glanced at Camille and inquired.

Did anything happen during the night?

There wasnt.

Really? Thats strange.

I will keep an eye out for it.

but Camille honestly wasnt confident.

How do I stop someone like her?

No matter how much he tried, there was nothing he could do to stop Elise from pushing her way into Ottos quarters.

That afternoon.

Elise and Giancarlo left the Kuntachi Duchy.

The Northern Grand Duke and his granddaughter could not be away for long, as they defended the Arad Empire against the barbarians beyond the Wall.

Even now, there was constant fighting on the other side of the Wall between the Empire and the Barbarians.

Ill see you in a month.

Elise promised Otto.

Uh well Im the king of a fairly small kingdom, so Im constantly busy moving around.

Dont worry. I will find you.

Yeah, but youre busy too, Elise.

I can use my time off.

.

I have a lot of unused compensatory time off, so I can come see you at least once a month.

Haha hahaha.

Take this.

Elise held out to Otto a rough metal ring.

[Anklet of the Pursued].

Description: An anklet that is worn on the foot. It isnt very comfortable to wear.

Type: Accessory (Anklet)

Rank: Unique (Set Item)

Durability: 1 / 1

Effect: This anklet forms a set with the Pursuers Compass. Allows the wearer to be tracked at any time.

Caution: Attempting to remove it forcibly will result in an explosion that may cause you to lose your ankle.

Wear it, and I will always be able to find you.

.

Then I wont have to arrange a time and place to meet you.

Absolutely no way!!!

Its like an electronic shackle!!!

Thank you.

Otto inwardly sobbed and put on the <Anklet of the Pursued>.

*Clang!*

An unpleasant metallic sound resounded.

Well, Ill see you in a month.

Yes.

With the magic anklet securely attached to Otto, Elise reared her horse and rode off toward the Northern Wall.

Hehehe! See you next time, grandson-in-law! Brother! Well meet soon! Hehehehe!

Laughing heartily, Giancarlo rode out of the Kuntachi Duchy following after Elise.

.

Conrad and Otto, who were unable to respond, stood silent and dazed.

Both of them were at a loss for words, having suddenly been caught in a situation that neither of them had expected.

After a long period of silence.

Grandfather?

Otto looked back at Conrad.

What the hell were you thinking, making such a promise years ago.

Hoo! Humph!

Without responding to Ottos remark, Conrad coughed unnecessarily and avoided eye contact then turned on his heels.

He slipped out of the room with a furtive pace.

Otto, forgive this grandfather of yours! But who would have thought that nasty Giancarlo would have ever gotten such a monster of a granddaughter!

Conrad could not bring himself to look Otto in the face, ashamed of the promises he had made in the past that he was unable to fulfill.

* * * /novel/i-became-a-level-99-vicious-lord/ * * *

Otto and the others didnt leave the Kuntachi Duchy right away.

Kairos had other business to attend to.

What, you want to give my men physical bodies?

Yes.

Does that work? Im not sure. This isnt the same as with me.

Otto wasnt entirely confident that he could manage to make Kaiross subordinates, who were within the <Phantom Armor>, into humans. After all, Kairos soul resided inside a cherished relic in the form of a mace, and his spirit hadnt wandered as a wraith.

Is there really a way?

Why dont we ask and find out?

The Kuntachi family was a renowned clan, skilled in both swordsmanship and magic. With a fair number of skilled beings and blood relatives proficient in magic, it was the ideal environment to seek counsel.

Were here.

Otto immediately took Kairos and went to Conrad.

Huh?

Conrad was caught off guard by Ottos surprise visit.

He was panicking because he had been carefully avoiding Otto and was ambushed.

What are you doing here, hehehe. If youre coming to see this old man, you should have notified me in advance.

Im not going to criticize you, so relax.

Huh?

Whats the point of blaming my grandfather when the waters already been spilled, it wont change anything.

Well, I guess you have a point.

Ill just die, at the hands of my fiance, and even if Im lucky enough to survive, Ill be captured for the rest of my life, never to be heard from again.

.

She says shell break up with me if I beat her.

Thats good, you have the power of an invincible emperor, there is hope!

Thats quite a hopeful perspective.

Otto snorted sarcastically.

By the time Otto gained the power of the Invincible Emperor and became the strongest man on the continent, Elise would be invincible, unbeatable in a one-on-one fight.

For now, lets save that for later.

Hmm?

Do you happen to know of anyone in the family who is familiar with black magic?

Black magic what kind of black magic are you talking about, exactly?

For example undead, or ghosts?

Hmm. There is one person who comes to mind in that area.

Who is he?

Elder Alphondal is very well versed in such matters, so it would be a good idea to pay him a visit.

Thank you.

Otto immediately set out to find the Kuntachi elder named Alphondal.

TL/N:

1. attempting to avoid notice or attention, typically because of guilt or a belief that discovery would lead to trouble; secretive.
