Chapter 13 Conquering Lilia? Part 1
In Jadewood Town, Leighton was accompanied by his mother, Lilia.
After reserving a restaurant to celebrate Leighton's advancement as a knight in the afternoon, the mother and son were on their way back to the knight stronghold.
When all of a sudden, a group of people was shouting.
"Out of the way!!"
"Out of the way!!"
"This is urgent; life is at stake!" Two individuals were shouting while running, followed by a group of men.
The first man passed Leighton and Lilia's side, however, the second person bumped into Leighton.
The man stumbled, and with a crack, seemingly a glass was shattered.
Leighton and Lilia looked at the shattered item; it was a small bottle with transparent red liquid splattered on the ground.
And because they were at the center of the town, the road was made of bricks.
"The potion... the potion!" the falling man said, pretending to be devastated.
Witnessing this, Leighton and Lilia felt something bad was going to happen.
Sure enough, the first man who was clearing the way just now, upon looking at the broken potion, shouted, "How dare you break the potion!" as a group of men surrounded them.
"What are you doing? This is the center of the town; if the guards see you causing trouble, you will surely be thrown in prison," Leighton stated.
"Hmph..." One of the group of men, a burly man, snorted. "You broke the potion that saves the life of our brother; now you're acting like you're the victim."
"Brothers, this person not only broke the potion and endangered the life of our brother, but instead of apologizing and begging for our forgiveness, he's using the guards to intimidate us."
"Go, brothers, beat him, break his legs!" he shouted.
Looking at the uncontrollable situation, Lilia panicked. "Stop!" she shouted.
"Mom, don't panic; the guards will soon arrive. Besides, it's not my fault that the potion broke, moreover I am already a knight." Leighton reassured his mother.
But before Leighton could continue speaking, the group of men attacked, punches and kicks flying.
Leighton tried to block them, but alas, he had just reached the early stage of the First Tier Knight.
He thought he could beat this group of brigands, but when the attack arrived, that's when he realized this group of brigands was also a Knight.
He was beaten, and with a crack, someone broke his legs.
"No... no... stop!" Lilia frantically shouted in panic. She launched herself towards the group of men, however, one of the kind onlookers grabbed her shoulder.
That's when the town guards arrived, led by their captain.
"What happened here?" he asked, approaching the group of men followed by his subordinates.
The burly man from before, seemingly the leader of the brigands, stepped forward.
"Captain, we apologize for the disturbance; however, this person broke a healing potion that is needed to cure our seriously injured brother."
"But this person, instead of apologizing, threatened us; that's why, in my momentary anger, I ordered my brothers to beat him," the burly man said, pointing his finger at Leighton.
"That's a lie; they clearly bumped into me on purpose," Leighton retorted, slumping on the brick road in pain.
"Oh... said we did it on purpose? One of our brothers was in front, running and shouting, 'Out of the way!' in advance to clear the path."
"And yet you are unwilling to move aside," the burly man stated.
The guard captain looked around at the onlookers. "Is what he said true?" he asked.
One of them stepped forward. "Captain, what he described is the truth," said a middle-aged woman, a paid individual by the brigands in advance for the act.
"Is there anyone willing to testify?"
"Captain, I witnessed it as well; that youngster is unwilling to move aside, that's why the man carrying the potion bumped into him," said the thin and hunched old man, also a paid person.
"If that's the case, this man is indeed at fault, so what do you think we should do?" the captain asked, looking at the burly man.
Hearing this, Leighton and Lilia's hearts sank.
"No need for further punishment; all he needed was to pay for the healing potion," the burly man politely answered.
"Of course," he continued, "we need to take him away, giving an explanation to our Lord."
"I can agree to that; however, you must ensure that this man doesn't suffer any more beating."
"And if I ever see additional injuries to his body, I, the town guard captain, will make sure you receive the proper punishment," the guard captain declared.
Hearing the town guard captain's declaration, the hundreds of gathered onlookers cheered in excitement, praising him as a righteous person.
The burly man's lips curved upwards; of course, the captain was also bribed by them to become one of the actors.
"Wait, captain, isn't this inappropriate?" Lilia inquired with a hint of anxiety in her eyes.
The captain looked at her; he was surprised how beautiful she was.
"Madam, what's inappropriate about that? Clearly, your son was at fault, but this brother only asked for fair compensation."
Upon hearing the captain's explanation, the hundreds of onlookers whispered and talked to the person beside them.
To Lilia's dismay, many onlookers agreed; she clenched her fist, asking, "Just how much do we need to pay for compensation?"
"Madam, the healing potion only cost ten gold coins," the burly man said with a creepy smile.
The burly man's words were like a cold water splash on her body; she was in a daze. The gold coin left was already used on Leighton's celebration.
She only had fifty silver coins in hand, and it takes more than a year for her to earn a single gold coin, let alone ten gold coins.
"Madam, were leaving now, you can take your son anytime as long as you prepare the correct amount," the burly man said.
"Brothers, let's go, bring him with us," he ordered, pointing his finger at Leighton, who was enduring the pain in his broken legs.
After some time, Ace woke up.
"You're awake," Nerissa said with a smile, as she was seated on a chair beside the bed.
Clearly, she had just finished absorbing blood crystals.
"Hmm... how's your progress, baby?" Ace inquired.
"It's incredible; out of the fifty blood crystals you had given me, there are only ten blood crystals left."
"Alright... you should brush your teeth and wash your face first, then eat your breakfast," Nerissa stated, standing up and giving a kiss on Ace's lips.
"Get up now; don't be too lazy."
"Okay... okay, madam," he answered as he went to wash his face and brush his teeth.
While brushing, he opened the system interface.
Congratulations for making Milf Nerissa squirt ten times.
Rewards: 1,000 system points.
Ace was surprised upon seeing the rewards. Remembering the wild night with Nerissa, he couldn't help but smile in conquering such beauty.
"Alright, it reminds me; this is Leighton's celebration. If Eustace moves decisively, the plan in conquering Lilia has already begun."
"And if my memory is right, Nerissa and Lilia were close to each other."
"If I need to conquer Lilia quickly, I need Nerissa's help, but how could I do it?"
He contemplated for a moment, "What if I asked for her help and rewarded her after conquering Lilia?"
"Although Nerissa had accepted me as her man, she had another weakness, it was Nhor."
"What if, after she accomplished the mission, I rewarded her with a blue-grade talent awakening potion?"
"Besides, in this world, having many wives is normal for the rich and nobles."
"Hmm..." As he was thinking, he felt someone was observing him. After all, he was now a Third Tier Knight; his senses had sharpened. He squinted his eyes, lowering his head, pretending not to notice him.
And this feeling was the same as last night, but he didn't care as he was focused on eating Nerissa.
There he saw someone peeking at the wooden wall gap.
With those eyes, Ace smiled; it was none other than Nhor.
After washing his face and brushing his teeth, Ace ate the breakfast prepared by Nerissa.
Looking at her actively absorbing blood crystals, Ace bought another 50 blood crystals and gave them to her.
"Absorb them; once you're done, there's a high chance you will advance to First Tier Knight," Ace stated.
"Thank you, baby; you're so good to me!" she said excitedly, jumping into his arms, her legs wrapped around his waist, kissing him passionately.
Ace's hands were on her soft ass, kneading them while they explored each other's mouths. He turned around, showing Nhor how he groped his mother's ass while he explored her delicious mouth.
Time passed, Ace and Nerissa were already separated.
Nerissa continued to absorb blood crystals, sitting cross-legged on Ace's bed.
Beside her was Ace, leaning on the bed headboard, in deep thought, thinking of his next plan.
All of a sudden, they heard a commotion outside. Nerissa also opened her eyes because of this.
They went to check the situation. Of course, Nerissa walked out from his backyard, returning to their house.
Nerissa walked out from their house; Nhor was also outside.
There, a group was rushing. Nerissa approached the group of women.
"What happened?" she asked.
"Oh... it's you, Nerissa. You didn't know? Lilia and Leighton encountered bad luck."
"He accidentally broke a healing potion; one of Leighton's legs was broken, and the group of men took him away."
"They demanded ten gold coins as compensation in order for Lilia to take Leighton back," the ample woman said.
"What?" Nerissa blurted out in shock. Even the other three women and the other person who heard it were shocked.
They were shocked because of the large amount of compensation needed.
"What a pity; they have bad luck," one of the retired old knights said, shaking his head.
"Indeed, I'm afraid gathering such a huge amount is very difficult," one of the knights with his one hand missing said with a sigh.
Ace, who heard it, smiled; next, he needed to convince Nerissa to help him. After that, conquering Lilia would not be difficult.
