(EP-97.2) Pet #4

097 Master and Pet #4

That. I cant reveal. It could endanger me.

.

Elga quickly understood. There was usually a common reason for the fall of noble families, rebellion and treason.

Descendants of the rebel family would be severely punished or killed, so if it was revealed that Theo Gospel was a descendant of a fallen noble family, hed have pitchforks pointing at him.

When faced with that, youd naturally want to hide it.

However, it didnt really matter what family Theo Gospel was from in Elgas opinion. After all, he was probably just from a low-ranking noble family that was far inferior to the Lioness Family.

What was important was that Theo was a noble of blue blood.

This restored some of Elgas self-esteem.

Because the man she was clinging to was an unknown orphan and slave, Elga always felt a sense of shame every day. Even if hes a slave, if hes from a noble family, then. With this revelation, you could say that she found tranquility within her emotions.

For this fella was, indeed, a descendant of a noble.

Elga suppressed her desire to rejoice, and instead asked solemnly, making it seemed like her anger had not yet subsided.

Perchance, did the Lioness destroy your family?

Perhaps because of Elgas sharp question, but Theo vaguely glanced to the side.

Well, you can say that

So you deliberately approached our family? You enthralled the people in the slave market to grab my attention, didnt you?

Theo raised his brow in confusion.

The slave market? Ah, yes, thats right. As expected of Elga-nim, always full of wisdom.

So you approached the Lioness to avenge your family?

Thats-.

Theo kept his mouth shut.

But Elga knew very well that the time when she needed to be the most careful about Theo was not when he was talking, but when he stayed silent and thoughtful.

Who knew what ideas brew inside his head, and what kind of words hed spit out with his nimble tongue.

So Elga decided to take the lead.

But isnt it your familys fault that you got destroyed in the end? You were probably with the Angmars. Like the Draco Family, youre doomed for following a foolish king.

Elga thought that Theo Gospels family had something to do with the Demon King Angmar. The similarity between Theos ability and clairvoyance could be attributed to this.

After all, Demon King Angmar had the ability of clairvoyance, able to see through the future and truth.

Thus, it wouldnt be surprising if he gave similar boons to his followers.

At this time, Elga felt a chill.

It was as if a cold blade was pointed on her chin.

Without realizing it, the traitors blade was so close to her neck.

On one hand, Elga couldnt attribute that same little Half-Elf to this tenacious and willful Theo Gospel, who pushed her to this extent.

You could call it a brave and ambitious act.

This ambition was akin to bright flames which engulfed Elga, before finally setting the Angmar Kingdom and the entire continent ablaze-.

For Elga, it was satisfying because her belief was that a man must be ambitious.

But why was he revealing this now?

So why are you telling me now? To punish you for being a traitor? Because you approached me with malicious intent?

No. I want to show to Elga-nim my sincerity.

Sincerity?

Initially, there may have been impure thoughts. But not anymore.

Elgas bright blue eyes seemed to see through everything, as she laid gaze on Theo.

Can you feel my sincerity?

Hmm.

Elga was somber. However, the story of the ambitious Half-Elf was not over yet.

I have to revive my family no matter what. Like a lion mating with multiple wives and having many children.

What?

What did he mean?

Elga felt as if she had heard a truly baffling story.

What about a lion?

A lion has a lot of lionesses. Thats what a man is.

What man?

Certainly, most great heroes in history had multiple wives, but it didnt fit a Half-Elf.

In her case, the great ancestor of the Lioness Family, Lion King Borgia Lioness, also had ten wives in this case, lionesses.

Without their help, we would not have been able to pioneer the barren West.

That was why the Lioness Family adopted the surname Lioness. This was in honor of the Lion Kings wives.

Elga found it funny that such manly words were coming from a frail, even slightly feminine, Half-Elf.

So, you mean youre trying to approach as many women as possible in order to have a lot of children?

Something like that.

Isnt this complete madness?

.

Theo shut his mouth. Even he understood how reckless it was.

However, in order to revive and maintain the family, it was best to marry a lot of wives and have as many children as possible.

Joseph, the 8th Patriarch of the Lioness Family, also had a lot of wives to get the family out of its birth crisis. He had married six at the time.

So Elga managed to suppress her boiling anger and asked.

So, how many children do you want?

The matter of how many children was an integral part of marriage.

Theo paused for a bit.

One.

One-? One child?

Well, at least thirty.

What!?

{T/N: the 4 sentences above dont make sense in English but you get the idea}

Thirty as in 30!?

Giving birth to one alone was already difficult. And even if you had one child a year, it would still take 30 years!

Then, Elga suddenly realized, why was she thinking about this? Her anger surged.

Get out, you jerk!

Elga got up and kicked the daydreaming man out of the dormitory.

Getting hit from the back, the man exclaimed, Hieek! It was a feeble scream, which was far from ambitious or heroic.

She felt so outraged at the fact that she fell in love with this man, that she couldnt help but shout again.

And take your squirrel too!

Keongkeong!
