Victor woke up early in the morning at the sound of his phone ringing.

He could feel Lily’s thighs under his head and her hands caressing his hair. But he had no energy to open his eyes, so he could only utter a couple of words to Lily, “You answer it,”

He was too sleepy to answer it himself, and there should be no one important on the other side.

“Good morning, madam,”

“Yes, this is his phone, I am Lily, his personal maid,”

“No, he is sleeping soundly in my lap right now..”

Victor briskly Opened his eyes when he hear Lily,

“shit, I made a mistake, I shouldn’t have let her answer.” he thought,

He quickly sat down and took the phone from Lily’s hand, then shot her a threatening look while he greeted his mother, Yes, It was his mother on the phone, he should have called her the previous day to report his results, but he forgot.

“Ah, Hello dear mother,” he said,

“Now, you remember your mother, I guess you were too busy playing with that new maid of yours,” His mother’s angry voice sounded from the other side of the phone.

“It’s not that, I..., I just thought that father should have already told you my results,” he explained.

“And? what about your father telling me? Does it have anything to do with you? Put that maid back on the phone, what was her name? Lily, right, I will talk to her, I don’t want to hear my ungrateful son’s voice.” She said.

Victor knew that his mother is a little upset with him, and no matter what he told her, he would not be able to please her. The only solution for such situations is the same they use on nuclear reactors, to let her cool down on her own. So he gave the phone to the surprised Lily and signaled her to talk to his mother.

Lily quickly adjusted her mentality and answered Ann’s rapid barrage of questions, Most of them on how was victor’s health and if he was injured during the ceremony.

Ann knew well that she does not have the right to know about the ceremony, but she had to make sure that her little boy was fine.

And at last, after fifteen minutes, Lily said goodbye respectfully and ended the call.

“Young Master, your esteemed mother has ordered me to tell you that no matter what happens you should take good care of your health and that you should call her often. not like your brother and sister.” Lily reported.

“Is that all ?” He asked.

Lily’s face blushed as she said with her face down,” She Ordered me to take care of all your needs, no matter what is your request.”

“Good,” said victor with a smile.

“Then we shall start with your punishment,” he said, to the shocked Lily,

“ Young master, why ?” Lily asked with aggrieved eyes.

“First, you broke the family rules, escaped from the assassin’s hall, and tried to sneak into the ancestral hall, so as your new master I have the responsibility to punish you,” He said.

“Second, you lied to me, And Third you told my mother that I was sleeping in your lap, and destroyed my good boy image in her mind. Without discipline, you will grow up to be a bad girl. Now, stand up, face the wall, and bend down” He ordered Lily whose face turned white with fear but had to do what her young master ordered.

And then he spanked her butt hard, but he didn't using his full strength.

...

It was 10.00 when Victor got himself dressed then went downstairs to order a late breakfast. But to his surprise, his father was already having a meal at the table in the kitchen. He seemed to have just arrived.

George was there too, he serving behind his master.

“Good morning, father.”

Victor saluted his father, then sat down and ordered the maids to prepare some cereals for his breakfast.

Theodore looked at Victor with a strange look in his eye, “Is this still my coward son?” He has some questions to ask him.

“Did you go to your grandmother’s house yesterday? How did you convince her to help you?” He asked, Theodore knew his mother was very stubborn, but his son was able to make her change her mind. He wanted to know how did he do that. Is his son really that competent?

“I did go there. Grandmother seemed very impressed by my talents, so she promised to help me.” said victor while stuffing his mouth with a toast covered in butter.

“Like I would believe that,” Theodore rebuked, then continued, “When I got the call from her late last night I was very surprised. She granted you a true blood status. You know that your big sister had to survive a deadly dungeon in order to get that status. Your grandfather almost had a nervous breakdown as your grandmother rarely interferes with the ceremony,” He exclaimed.

Victor stayed silent and continued to stuff his mouth with food.

“Where is that girl Lily. I heard you spent the night together,” He asked after realizing that he wouldn’t be able to get anything but lies out of Victor’s mouth.

“I am here, Master. Good morning.” A crystal voice sounded, then a beautiful well dressed Lily entered the kitchen and saluted with an aggrieved look in her eyes. “Young master, why did you have to spank me so hard. I was barely able to change my clothes,” she thought.

She was wearing a black sundress, prepared for her by the maids.

Theodore forgot to breathe for a second after looking at her. Yesterday, when he saw Lily in the hall she was nothing special, just a little beauty, but now after she cleaned up, she was on a completely different level.

‘Damn it. I should have taken her for myself. maybe...’ He thought. Then coughed twice to clear his throat, and stopped staring at her. He has an image to keep.

“Good, Good, you are really fit to be my son’s maid,” he said with an appreciative look. “Come then, Help me and your young master pour some morning coffee,” he said, wanting to change the subject.

Lily nodded her head and then turned around and went to get two cups.

Theodore could not help noticing a limp in her walk, she seems to be in pain.

“Damn you, Victor,” He thought, then shot his son a murderous look. “You took advantage of her as soon as you got here. Can’t you have mercy on this little girl? Damn it, Now it is too late, I can’t take her.” and with that, he abandoned his previous plans.

Victor knew what Theodore was thinking about, and flashed a wide grin at his annoyed father. He did that to Lily on purpose, he had to make sure that the family thinks he had already slept with her.

Theodore shook his head and thought with a sigh, that his son has fooled the entire family for the past few years, he seems to be a wolf in sheep’s clothes, just like the rest of the family. He should take care of this son more in the future. He seems promising.

Victor cleared his throat and interrupted Theodore’s dark thoughts.

“Father, I want to remove the assassins’ hall’s mark from Lily, and put my own, as per family rules,” He said.

“That is easy,” Theodore said, then he signaled to George who quickly went to another room and brought back a silver ring with the family crest printed on it in red.

Theodore ordered Lily to give him her back then he pointed the ring on her neck and activated some sort of command.

A light shot from the ring and the spider tattoo on Lily’s disappeared and was replaced by the family’s crest.

“Now she has become owner-less, it’s your turn, Use your Identity jade to brand her,” he said.

The Identity token is the one he was given yesterday, It is a low-ranking artifact with functions related to the family.

Victor looked Lily in the eyes and she looked back at him then nodded then she revealed her white nape before him, so he took out the purple jade hung around his neck and pointed it at Lily, and activated the branding command.

A red light shot towards Lily, making the family crest disappear from her neck. Replacing it was a faint tattoo of a Coat of arms with the letter V inside it. It is the crest the family granted him when he was born.

And with that, no one in the family would be able to take her away from him.
