Waking up in the morning was a pain in the ass today literally at least he took me to the bath and helped me clean up after last night. taking me back to bed he went to sleep but I could not rest right now There were too many things for me to do right now. Dragging myself out of bed I put on my nightgown and left for my changing room where I found Loran, waiting for me when she saw me she said. "You look tired my lady did you not get much sleep last night?"
"No Loran I did not get much sleep last night. Now help me get dressed for the long day ahead of me."
"Yes, my Lady at once."
Loran, got me dressed and I left the room to go to the main hall where I was going to have to stay all day today. Getting to the main hall I took a seat and waited for the first person that I knew would be here soon.
The first to come was of course a merchant they were in a pretty good mood as well but that was to be expected of him. My father always disliked merchants and as a result of that Tessvol's economy suffered for it so with my father dead and me in charge now the merchants that stuck around all this time are looking to me to see if I'm different than my father.
I told him to wait by the side for the rest of the merchants to come so I could talk with them as a group rather than individually as to not show any favoritism. I was not against show favoritism but they would need to show me why I should favor them over the others. One after the other merchants came stood around my main hall chatting and trying to flatter me with their word.
After all of the merchants that matter was here I started speaking and boy were they happy to hear what I had to say. I got rid of most of the stupid rules and laws that my father made up to put the merchants down and most importantly I lower the frankly speaking out ridiculously high tax on trade goods which they were overjoyed with I'm sure.
Just as I finished the meeting with the merchants Caleb walking in and strolled right past everyone without a word and sat down next to me and just closed his eyes.
That's how half the day went I stopped the meetings so I could go eat. Caleb seemed bored and uninterested in what was going on in the meeting. That was just fine by me if he let me run the place how I saw fit.
Later that evening Sir Charles walked in with a frown on his face and a man following behind him. I could tell this was going to be a headache and then some. After reaching us Sir Charles spoke. "This is Sir Leven of house Kelten"
Sir Leven stepped Forward and said. "Your stepmother has promised your hand in marriage to our houses, young master here is the letter of proof."
Uuu that dumb whore is causing me problems even after I killed her great. "Well if you weren't aware I'm already married to my husband who is right next to me and even if I wasn't my stepmother who is dead has no right to marry me to anyone."
"Well as you can see here this letter of proof was stamped by your family's seal which shows it has your late father's approval and as for this man next to you just divorce him and marry our young master."
That stupid father really gave the family seal to that whore and she used it like this for fucks sake can't I catch a break for once. I looked over to Caleb for help when suddenly heavy willpower fell over the room and push everyone to the ground. This was will suppression something you only get after having fifty in willpower but I thought Caleb only had at most thirty in willpower. I almost forgot I can look at his stats so I pulled up his stats to have a look at them.
Name: Caleb lacuna Age: 24 Race: Human
Gender: Male
Classes tier 1
HP/ 76/76 SM/ 135/135 MP/ 148/148 SPD: 32 Shadow Lord
Holy fuck, fuck me no wonder he gave me such a hard time last night he has almost double my stats. I can tell because you get one point of stamina for every physical stats and one point of mana for every mental stats you have, so that means he has one hundred thirty-five points in his physical stats and one hundred forty-eight in his mental stats.
because he can use willpower suppression that means he has fifty points in willpower. Now I understand the reason he was able to kill my father so fast last night was this right it must be.
Caleb spoke, "So you want my women is it?"
Sir Leven couldn't even raze his head Caleb released the pressure and said. "Get lost" and sat back down in his seat.
Sir Leven got up and ran out of the room piss running down his legs. HAHAHA, that was so hot, ok I'll forgive Caleb for last night.
I continued with the meeting and later stopped for diner with Caleb. After the meal, Caleb Grabbed me from behind and I knew what he wanted but I was still hurting from last night.
"I still have things to do maybe later." I turned around and kissed him and left he didn't follow but went off to do his own thing.
I called all the young maid's to gather so I could look at them and find one or two to let carry some of my burdens in the bed for me. I wanted one that was good-looking but not more than me, she had to be submissive and have good stamina and endurance as to take a pounding at night. After looking through all my maid I found one Kelly she was nineteen years old, the daughter of a Solider and farmer, has ok looks and when she was offered a better position among the maids she did not take it because she didn't want to stand out.
I called her to meet with me privately in another room. When we both got there I looked her over and said to her. "I want you to be my husband's night maid do you understand what I'm asking of you?"
She froze in place but then responded saying. "I understand what you want me to do but I only signed a normal maid contract my Lady."
"Yes I know, That's Why I'm asking you at all and not telling you, so are you willing to take the role as my husband's night maid. If you are I'll increase your pay from five silver a month to fifty a month if you are willing.
This book is hosted on another platform. Read the official version and support the author's work.
She visibly gulped at that, fifty silver a mouth was not a small amount for her or her family. her father who is a solder only gets paid twenty silver a month, if she started to bring home that much her family could move out from the farming area and live in the main city. Putting in bluntly it was an offer she couldn't refuse even if she wanted to deep down.
"Ok, my Lady I'll work as a night maid."
I took her upstairs where one of my maids said Caleb was I found him in my father's study reading books.
Walking up to him with Kelly I said. "She's all yours's don't bother me tonight" and like that, I left the room I felt a little bad for leaving kelly to the wolves like that but her sacrifice was one I was willing to make so I could get a good night sleep.
That night I got woke up to the screams of a sheep getting eaten by a wolf. "AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH THAT HUUURRRTS" I should get back to sleep don't want to waste her sacrifice.
The next morning I saw kelly and she was walking funny like I was yesterday that was the walk of some that got eat by a wolf. I walked past her and said, "you did a good job."
"Thank you, my lady will you betake care of master Caleb tonight or someone else?"
Congratulations +5 XP for your Escort Class.
A worthy sacrifice indeed.
"I want to get another good night's sleep so you can take care of him tonight as well.
"BUT MY LADY I have other work to do as well."
"Not anymore just go rest and focus on serving my husband ok?"
"Yes, my Lady."
I'll have to find a few more women so I can have them on a rotation at night. But that's for later I need to focus on today I still have so much to do and so little time. I also need to find a way to complete my quest as well but were to send him to find epic loot.
As I was talking down the hall thinking about what to do about my quest the answer came to me in the form of an earthquake.
Congratulations a dungeon has risen in your land.
I could hardly believe what I was looking at a dungeon had risen in my land this was both a good and bad Good because dungeons were basically a bottomless gold mine and the best training ground for soldiers. But this was also bad because we were on the border with the kingdom of Tresin and this land was their's just twenty-five years ago and there was no way they weren't going to start a war over this.
I could already see the face of duke Sanders whose land this used to be fuming mad as soon as he finds out. I needed to gather all my troops and send them into the dungeon and as for Caleb, I'll have him be in charge of the troop while they delve into the dungeon.
I ran down the hall and to the room where Caleb ate Kelly last night and opened the door only to find him still asleep in bed. "Just how much did you eat last night to sleep through an earthquake." I walked over to him grabbed his sword and said, "WAKE UP"
Opening his eyes he looked at me and then he looked at his sword in my hand. "Well good morning to you too."
"Put your sword away and follow me you have work to do." I grabbed him so clothes to help him sheth his sword.
After that, we walk to the main hall that was already filled with people. I walked to my seat and sat down Caleb took his next to me.
I said, "I'm sure everyone is here for the same reason a Dungeon has appeared in our land. I've decided that we will mobilize the solider's and send them in" Everyone nodded at that for sending the soldiers down was standard practice. "also my husband will be in charge of the delve are there any that think otherwise."
"No good then I'll also be giving our own merchants priority on buying and selling of the good we pull out of the dungeon." That got the merchants roaring. "lastly any civilians who wish to go in must sell any items they find locally if you are found to be sneaking off with any item you will be punished."
"Sir Charles mobilizes the troops and set out and Caleb can you please follow him."
"Yes, Lucy you can count on me."
"To everyone else good luck and good hunting. Ok, everyone to work there's much to do."
After that everyone left and I started on the paperwork lots and lots of paperwork. I also got to writing a letter to send to the capital to inform them of the dungeon.
Later that night one of Sir Charles's pages came to tell me about the Dungeon and the fact Caleb took Kelly with him. But more importantly, than kelly not having any chance of escape from the wolf apparently, the dungeon had risen just outside the city it was within walking distance of most of the people in the city.
After another long hard day, I went to sleep and had another restful night. The next morning the first thing to greet me was a message from the system.
Congratulations on Escorting your target to getting some epic loot. Reward + 10 XP for Escort class and next part of the main questline. Quest Name: Challenge Find something to challenge him and push him to the limit of his abilities. Reward + 15 XP for Escort Class and the next part of the main questline.
Looks like he's ready to dive into the dungeon and I got another level so fast. The new quest looks kind of hard and it will probably take me some time to do it. but that's for later for now I need to look at my stats.
