607 Storm Settled?
Imentet's expression turned dark when the Twins didn't respond. Then, her eyes shone with a vicious glint as she smirked and slowly said, "If I'm not wrong, you've recently forged this shield, right? Are you sure you want to fight me?"
The Twins could no longer remain indifferent upon hearing this. Their grasp on the shield tightened, their mana started circulating rapidly and their breathing became a bit heavier.
Seeing their expression change, Imminent smirked in satisfaction and took out her whip while her mana core thrummed to life. This was her clear warning to the twins that if they fought again, she wouldn't stop prematurely.
Wilfred's eyes flickered between the twins and Imentet. Despite his unwillingness, and this repulsed him, he couldn't help becoming a little worried about the twins.
He knew whenever a weaponsmith forged a Lifebound Artifact, he would be severely weakened for a period of time depending upon the quality, the abilities and tier of the artifact. This happened because to successfully forge a Lifebound Artifact, the forger had to sacrifice some of their lifespan, and injure their magic foundation which needed time to recover.
This point was the prominent reason why there were very few Lifebound Artifacts in the world. After all, no one would want to waste years or decades of their life creating an artifact and then fall into the state of weakness which made them vulnerable.
Because of this, Lifebound forgers often had personal guards to ensure their safety. Unfortunately for the twins, the Fuller family didn't have many Five-star mages to protect them even if their hidden forces were added into the equation.
If Imentet was right and the twins had forged their shield recently or even in the past few months, he was sure they were still in the 'weakened' state and wouldn't last long against Imentet.
Then, his eyes flickered, 'Seeing how they didn't hesitate to go against me and Imentet, the Arasia and Seidel Family, the Fuller Family seems determined to have him. This means..'Just when this thought crossed his mind, a voice sounded:
"If fight is what the Seidel Family wants, fight is what you will get because the Fuller Family wouldn't hesitate to go all out against anyone who wants to harm our guest."
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Following the voice, two figures flew toward them from not too far away from Claire's house.
Seeing them appear, Wilfred sighed, his emotion complex, 'Just as I thought, the Fullers are prepared to resist the three families for the boy.'
Imentet didn't seem surprised by the appearance of the two more Fullers. Evidently, she had also expected this.
She looked at the newcomers, an average looking brown haired man and a beautiful woman, both of whom had the appearance of someone in their early thirties, though their real age might be several times that.
"It seems your family is determined to have him, huh?" She said, looking at the woman.
The woman didn't reply, and just looked into her eyes with an indifferent expression on her face.
Imentet's lips twitched seeing this, and she let out an exasperated sigh, "This is why I don't like you Fullers. You are too arrogant."
No one said anything in response which made her feel like a fool and this only served to stoke the flame of her anger, but she wasn't stupid enough to fight when all odds were against her. So, she took a deep breath, exhaled and then looked to the side.
"What are your thoughts on this, Kart? Don't tell me you are going to just let it happen?"
The four from the Fuller family and Wilfred turned in the direction she was looking at, waiting for the last player–the Five-star mage from the Martell family–to show himself and express his stance.
Sigh!
An aged sigh rang out and a hunched back old man in gray robes revealed himself.
He swept his weary glance at everyone present, and sighed again, "I'm too old for this. You all can decide among yourselves, my Martell Family will not participate in this matter. I'm too old for this."
Saying this, he glanced toward Claire's house before flying away.
"Tch! That old coward!" Imentet spat through gritted teeth.
"Don't be angry at him, Lady Imentet. You know the Martells never bother themselves with such things." Wilfred said, flying to her side.
Imentet gave him a disgusted look before looking at the Fullers, "I'll see if you can really keep him."
Saying this, she flew away, leaving an awkward Wilfred.
"What are you doing?" One of the twins asked, her delicate brows furrowed.
"What do you mean?" Wilfred asked, frowning.
The brown haired man beside the Twins smirked, "She meant why aren't you leaving yet."
Hearing this, Wilfred took a deep breath. After a last glance at the Twins, he also left.
The brown haired man glanced in a different direction before looking at the woman beside him, "Grand Elder…"
The woman nodded before glancing in the direction the man looked and calmly said, "Allow us to have him for… a month and we can consider the favor of forging princess Alvira's Lifebound Artifact settled."
There was no response for a while. Then a voice sounded:
"Seven days."
The Fuller Grand Elder pondered for a bit before nodding, "Alright, seven days it is."
After saying this, she didn't wait for the response because she knew it would not come and turned around, her hazel eyes becoming cold.
"Bring him to the estate when he comes out." Leaving these words behind, she flew away. The brown haired man nodded toward the Twins before following her.
…
Max, unaware of the happenings outside thanks to the isolation barrier, was thrusting his hips back and forth in a frenzy, causing his cock to slide in and out of Claire's velvety cave.
Pa! Pa!
"Ahn~ Haa~ Um~"
She was on her elbows and knees, moaning wildly, her eyes glazed over due to the intense stimulation she was feeling.
She had told him to slow down a little and be a little more gentle several times by now, but Max didn't seem to hear her. In the end, she had no choice but to try to enjoy it as much as she could while trying to absorb the strange energy that he poured inside her. As she absorbed this energy, she could feel herself getting stronger which thrilled her. The bliss of becoming stronger helped her quite a lot to ignore the stimulation. If not for this, she feared she might've lost her mind by now.
…
"How long is he going to take?" Renu asked her twin sister, Vani, bored after waiting for over two hours.
Vani looked at Renu and calmly said, "Don't be too impatient. He should be done in a while."
"Tsk! Is he not aware of the danger he is in? How can he come here and do… that." Renu grumbled, her face heating up as she imagined Max having sex.
Vani looked at her with interest, and said, "Oh, so you managed to breach the barrier?"
"I didn't. If I had, I would've told him to come out by now." Renu said in frustration, "I can't believe a Four-star mage can cast such a strong barrier."
Vani's eyes flickered but she didn't comment.
Creak!
A while later, the doors opened and out walked Max, looking refreshed.
