The hall was deadly silent. The only noise was made by people swallowing.
When the wizard from the White Tooth Castle appeared, they thought that Angele would at least negotiate with them, however, the outcome was completely unexpected.
Angele destroyed the hologram without letting the wizard finishing his words.
Vienna lowered his head and swallowed. He was concerned about what Angele just did.
“Master… The White Tooth Castle…”
Angele did not say anything but he glared at Vienna. He stopped Vienna from saying anything else.
He lowered his head and looked at Princess Katarina again.
“Hey, how old are you?” he asked. “Don’t worry. I can help the prince grow his arm back. It’s not a big problem.”
Katarina was still crying but she stopped after hearing those words.
“Are you… Are you serious?”
“Of course. I never lie.” Angele smiled.
‘I never lie when it’s unnecessary,’ he added in mind.
Katarina wiped the tears off her face.
“I’m 19 years old…”
She was trying her best to stay calm, but the terrifying scene was still replaying in her mind. The girl knew that wizards were usually unstable. Their emotions changed constantly.
“19 years old…” Angele’s brow furrowed. “Six more years… Alright, you can stay in the harbor. Don’t go anywhere. Someone, find the princess a place to stay.”
“Sure!” Two guards stepped forward. One of them helped the prince to stand up and the other one went to help the princess. They left the meeting hall quickly.
Angele finished everything and healed the prince’s wound. The family was rebuilt and the family leaders could take care of the rest for him. He decided to let Vienna handle things and be the host of the meetings. He then decided to return to the house and have some rest.
He was sent back to the house by six white carriages; he did not waste any time on the road.
Angele took off the long robe and hung it on a clothing stand. He was wearing a white shirt and a pair of dark pants inside the robe, with a silver scimitar on his belt. There was also a black mirror on his belt.
“Master, you’re back.” Two maids crouched and helped him take off his boots.
“I want to take a bath. Have you cleaned the pool?” Angele felt that his body was a bit strange. He could clean his body using spells, but taking a bath could help him relax.
“The pool is cleaned and filled up. You can use it when you want,” the maids responded politely.
Angele nodded and passed through the living room. He passed the spiral staircase and entered the backyard.
In the center of a garden, there was a white swimming pool filled with light blue water. The edges of the pool were frozen. The place was quiet and cold.
Angele took off his clothes and jumped into the pool.
The chilling water was at his chest; Angele inhaled deeply due to the coldness. He stayed by the edge of the pool, raised his head, and narrowed his eyes.
‘Special soft water at negative 41 degrees Celsius…’ He scooped up some water using both hands and released it into the pool. He glanced at the maids and shook his head. They were standing as far as they could from Angele.
‘I didn’t notice that the mortals can’t even approach me now…’
Angele opened his mouth and released some yellow smoke that smelled sulfurous. His teeth were sharp like crocodile’s.
He just kept the position and looked at the sky.
The white clouds were moving slowly in the wind. There were white birds flying over the sky, twittering.
Angele could feel that the chilling water was cooling his body down. He stayed by the edge of the pool quietly and leaned against the wall. He closed his eyes and somehow fell asleep slowly.
He woke up after a while. He had no idea how long had passed.
Angele opened his eyes and saw the two full moons that looked like two irregular plates in the sky. The stars looked like broken pieces of diamond that covered the sky.
The owls were making noises and he could hear the insects in the bushes.
Angele yawned but he did not want to get up. He opened his arms and put them on the edge of the pool.
Suddenly, he felt that his right hand was itchy. He looked at his right hand and saw a red insect moving out of a small crack on the ground. Angele’s arm blocked its path and it was trying to climb up his arm.
The insect looked like a centipede. It had a red body with a hard shell, but the insect’s tail was different. The tail looked like a pair of scissors, and it seemed like it was poisonous.
Angele grabbed the insect and put it on his hand. He started observing the insect carefully.
“It’s not afraid of my energy wave… You little thing…”
Angele knew that his energy wave was terrifying due to his bloodline power and normal creatures would not even get close to him. If he released his energy waves like normal, creatures weaker than rank 4 wizards would not even be able to look at him directly.
Although he was not releasing his energy waves like normal, weak creatures like insects and rats could still feel the terrifying power in his body. However, it seemed like this red insect was not afraid of him at all.
“Is it just a coincidence? Or am I changing?” Angele played with the insect for a while and threw it away. He started checking the tiny crack on the ground and found a black insect that was moving by slowly.
“Something happened to me.” He stood up from the pool with a naked body. A maid that was dying in the cold walked to him and tried to put a white blanket on his body.
“Don’t worry about it. You can leave. This place is not for you.” Angele could barely do anything for these mortals. They were like fragile glass bottles and their bodies might be permanently damaged by the radiation energy. If they stayed too close to Angele, they would get sick or die.
A maid stayed around Angele for about ten minutes and died for no reason after she returned to her home. Angele checked the dead body and ordered the maids to stay away from him.
He walked back to the meeting hall.
Angele was surprised as he entered the door. He looked at the scene in the meeting hall with his brow furrowed.
The meeting hall was brightened up by lighted candles and there were more than ten young girls standing there. It seemed like they were around 13 years old; they were staring at Angele anxiously. The girls were wearing dresses and some of them were wearing leather armor.
“What’s going on?” Angele questioned in a deep tone. “Who sent you here?”
He noticed that the girls all had balanced bodies and pretty faces; also, they were releasing strong life energy waves. The girls all had the potential to become knights and could handle the radiation energy released by Angele’s body.
“Master…” A girl wearing tight silver armor stepped forward. “We are the members of the Rio Family. Here’s a letter from the family leader.” She handed a black leather scroll to Angele.
Angele grabbed the letter and his brow furrowed again.
‘Dear Great Master Angele,
I hope that you can forgive my rudeness. Here are 13 selected girls from the family. I sent them to you so they can take care of your daily life. Also, when you are in the mood, you could have some fun with them…’
There were paragraphs of worthless text in the letter.
Angele knew what he was implying. The girls were here for Angele. It was important for the family to have pure bloodline if they wanted to start a country. The family leaders selected the girls to reproduce with Angele. They wanted as many children as they could get.
Although wizards had low fertility rate, they could still impregnate mortals. The chance was low, but there was still a chance. It would be enough if even just one of the girl was impregnated.
Angele was a bit speechless. He could have some fun with them if the girls were not from his family. He looked at the girls, and the girls were like his granddaughters or something. If he had sexual intercourse with them, he would just feel strange.
It was common for a family with wizards to do something like this. All the big families wanted pure bloodline; the theory was wildly recognized by the wizards. That was the reason why the family leader selected all the girls from the family.
“So, you are sent here by Vienna? What’s your name?” Angele questioned.
“Diana… Diana Grim Rio…” the girl responded immediately. “Please don’t worry. We’ll take care of you and we’ll follow all your requests…”
The girl was only 19 years old; she was shy when speaking these words. She lowered her head and stood in front of Angele. Her face blushed and she was nervous.
“Alright, Diana. You can pick a room you want and stay in the house; I’m busy right now. The rest of you should do the same.”
Angele dropped the letter and the letter was ignited in the air. The letter was burnt into ashes, which flew to the garbage bin. He did not say anything else and just headed to the spiral staircase.
The girls in the meeting hall witnessed the mysterious scene and were excited.
Diana was close to Angele when he did the trick. She heard that the wizards were mysterious and strong. Angele proved it to her. Most of the girls here volunteered when the family leader told them about his plan.
It was a great opportunity for them. If they could give birth to a wizard’s child, their lives would change completely.
Diana was one of them—her mother told her many things about the situation. They all knew that the Rio Family was finally an important family in the alliance after Angele came back.
