“Alright, since we have a draw, the reward is for everyone to enjoy. Maids please treat these warriors.”
Dozens of maids guided everyone to sit and then took their armor before massaging them and wiped the dirt off their body. Some quickly gave them wine and food, while some knelt and massaged their feet.
Aldred shook his head and smiled. “Nobles really do know how to make people happy.”
The soldiers were all smiling and treated like a king by the maids. Lord Yanka and Byron were really nice. They sent the female soldiers for skin care, and clothes shopping while the men were given massages and ‘wonderful’ treatment by the maids.
But then Aldred got confused as to why the maids did not come to him. That was until he saw the 6 familiar maids.
“You guys! I didn’t see you all at the dinner hall.”
The 6 maids bowed. “We apologized, my lord. We had to attend to some matters.”
“It’s fine. I am not mad or anything.” Aldred sat down, and the maids went to work; feeding him, massaging, and giving him wine.-.
Aldred was currently in his adult form, so there was more surface areas for the maids to massage. He believed it was harder to massage a child although he wasn’t sure about that either, but he chose to be in his adult form when getting a massage.
Selene walked in front of him and put both hands on his shoulders, pressing some stiff points that relieved the pain. He wasn’t in much pain, but being massaged was always nice.

Darla knelt down, and put a firm grip on his calf. He had to admit that they were really good at this as Aldred stared at her cleavage. It was smooth and slightly red. Darla glanced at him and sweetly smiled which made Aldred blush at being found out.
Aldred realized that both Selene and Darla wore tighter clothes than the rest of the maid. They were also more revealing, and amplified the curves of their waist, and the outline of their buttocks.
After massaging his shoulder, Selene slid her hands down to his chest, and she pressed them with her thumb, making a back and forth movement that made her breast came closer and then farther. This scene repeated a bunch of times and he could smell her body.
It was a sweet scent of flowers and honey.
Aldred felt desire within him formed. He looked at them differently with a slight lust and passion.
After a few hours, it was time for the maids to leave.
“We will be leaving now, my lord.” Selene bowed.
“Wait,” Aldred said. “You don’t have to force yourself, and you can say no to me, but I want to ask. Are you willing to accompany me in bed? You can say no. I give no pressure at all. I swear. Everyone here can be a witness.”
Aldred did not want to pressure them to have fun with him. He knew his status as Lord Yanka’s guest and the friend of Maverick, the son of Lord Aleron, which was a powerful count.
If he only asked bluntly, they might be scared to say no which was something he did not want. Aldred wanted to know if they liked him too or not.
Selene and Darla hesitated, and after a few seconds, they looked at him and bowed. “We would like to take our time to think, my lord.”
“It’s okay. No pressure, remember. I don’t want you to do this because of my status. Honestly, I like both of you, but if you don’t feel the same way as I do, then it’s okay.”
“Thank you, my lord.”
The maids left, and Aldred sighed in his seat.
‘Did they not like me?’
That hit his confidence a bit. He thought his adult form was handsome enough. After all, it looked very similar to his father, and he got a beauty like his mother as his wife with that face.
Well, his face wasn’t the only selling point though.
“I should treat them nicer later.” He sighed. “How did I get Mira and the others to like me again?”
The whole day, Selene and Darla were the only thing that he thought about. The girls were still nowhere to seen. Maybe they were still shopping and grooming. Girls love those things so Aldred allowed them to take their time.
As everyone was relaxing on top of the wide balcony, overseeing the man-made forest from below, Aldred grabbed his orange juice and took a sip.
Bartrem was laying down on a long lounge chair beside him. The sun was about to fall below the horizon, and they were watching the sunset together.

“This view?” Aldred asked.
“Everything. View, the moment, the feeling.”
Aldred sipped his orange juice. “This moment can only be enjoyed if we suffer, so no. I do not wish this to be forever. Have you ever heard the saying ‘happiness exists because of suffering’?”
Maverick nodded. “That’s a good saying. We can only be happy if we suffer. Weird but it makes sense if you think about it.”
“So what is your plan for the future?”
“Well, I am going to Paphia after this. I need to take something, and after that I will wait for the astrolabe to be activated and continue looking for the treasure. I heard Byron is not going to join the second phase. What about you?”
“I am coming, but I am not looking for the treasure.”
“You’re looking for more blessings from the world?”
Maverick nodded. “The blessings I got from Mount Fargon already gave me a huge edge against other Gold Rank. I will just accompany you to get more blessings. Who knows I might have more treasures that can help your situation.”
Aldred laughed. “Yeah, I got a lot of treasures from selling hot baths, but most of them are weapons and armors.”
As they were chatting, Byron walked to them. “Guys, my father invited you to watch a play.”
