“Is that a proposal…?”

“You can also think it as such…” Allen wink causing Lama to chuckle in amusement.

“You seemed really used to this kind of farce… is this also how you trick many women into becoming yours… hm?” Lama grinned playfully.

“Unfortunately, that’s where you are wrong…” Allen chuckled. “I never trick anyone… I can even say, if I said that I am second in this world for being an honest gentleman, no one would dare say they are first.”

“… …”

“So, how can you say that I’m nothing but a conman who tricks women…?” Allen showed a wicked grin.

“Then, if what you said was real, why are you smiling so badly?” Lama giggled lovingly and seeing Allen that smile, her heart couldn’t help but jumped. “I had never seen that kind of sincere and honest smile before –In my entire hundreds of year life…”

“Is it? You must have blurred vision. How can I, such a pure man, smile so badly?” Allen hastily stopped his smile and said in all seriousness.

“I can testify, the master is indeed a pure man. He’s just 99.1% bad but even so, he’s still the most handsome, the strongest, and the kindest…” But before Lama could answer, a voice suddenly rang out. Following the source of the voice, Grim was lazily raising her head and stared at Lama. “…So, Naga, you better take this chance now and be with my master –you wouldn’t regret it~" Grim's eyes seemed to be saying to Lama 'What are you waiting for? This is just a one time sale only! If you miss this, you won't have a chance in the future~' kind of look.

Allen stared at Grim in amusement. “You really know me well, that is my best cat~”

Puurrr!! Grim purred happily while raising her head. However,

Allen raised Grim in the air, “However, what do you mean by 99.1% bad? Do I look that bad…? Hm?” a hidden blade seems to be concealed within his eyes. And Grim didn’t overlook it.

She immediately fawned and stick her tongue out, licking Allen’s lips, “I’m just joking master. Don’t be mad… you know that master is one of the kindest people in the whole wide world… I love you, Master~”

Grim spread her slender legs and immediately hug Allen’s neck. Then she glanced at Lama’s direction and wink, ‘Come on, say yes,’ Her eyes seemed to be saying.

Lama shook her head in amusement on that lazy cat. She had always heard that Infernal Grimalkins had such b*tchy characters –and it seems it was true…

She sighed and then finally said, taking Allen’s attention again.

“If I… If I agreed, do you vow that you will do what you had said…?” She smiled gently, though Allen can see the sadness hiding behind her eyes.

“… …”

“If you had seen the future like you claimed to be… you should probably know that I am an exiled of my kind. A criminal that was hiding – or what, don’t tell me, you haven’t known it?”

“I know… Isn’t that because you followed the human you once loved. Thus, going out of the tribe. However, due to that, your tribe suffered a misfortune. The man you love was actually a bastard – selling you for a huge amount of gold and silver, giving away the location of your tribe.”

“You sure know how to pick a man…” Allen mused inwardly. This girl has such pitiful fate.

“… …” Lama bit her lips in intense sorrow.

The one who told this to him was none other than… Valera – Chief of the Medusa tribe and Ava’s mother. She was an infamous traitorous sinner who betrayed her tribe just because of love to an ingrate human!

That had happened when he first met the Ava and the Medusa Tribe. He had somewhat become an honorary guest but that was all to it. Due to Lama’s mistake, the Medusa tribe who hated men became extremely severe.

They had only taken him in as a respect and gratitude.

Other than that, there was nothing.

That was also the reason why Ava became an exiled as well for following Allen. She was excommunicated, fearing that what had happened to the Lava Naga Tribe would happen to them.

Of course, Allen didn’t have any intention to do it.

Still, even in the future, the Medusa tribe still hadn’t contacted or even tried looking or Ava in the previous world.

Who knows where they were. When Allen returned to the tribe to ask for forgiveness for what happened to Ava as well as return Ava’s remains to her family, the Tribe was nowhere to be found.

No signs of combat or battle – probably, they had left of their own accord.

But now, Allen was certain that the tribe should still where the tribe was originally located.

After all, they didn’t know him.

They should have thought that Ava was just exploring the outside world…

“… Then, if I choose to trust you… will you vow to really give me your everything…? Your life, your soul, your body, your heart and everything you have… will you promise?” Lama’s scarlet eyes shined.

Oh? What’s this… it seems like she was doing what he was doing all this time…

That’s interesting…!

Allen mused. “Are you proposing… to me?”

“Yeah! I am!” Lama answered without hesitation.

“But just like what I had said before, my body and heart would never belong only to you… I also have wives, you know and I would never forsake them. Giving my all only to you would be quite unfair~”

“It’s fine… I don’t care. A powerful man is destined to have women beside them…” Lama replied firmly.

“What I want is your affection and love that I can trust that would never whither in eternity and for you to never betray me… my power, my life, my wealth, I will give them to you. You can do whatever you want with them!”

“Just… let me believe in you. Let me see the thing that you are talking about… the thing that you said that I should deserve…” She was speaking really sincerely. There were determination and yearning in her voice.

In her experiences thus far, she had always failed to be loved by those she loved!

She had always wondered… why?

What’s wrong with her? Why does she only felt hurt when all she wanted was to be loved…?

Why does she have always been betrayed when she just sought for love and affection…

Why?

This was what she wanted most in her life!

And yet why does it seems so unreachable...?

“Then, I won’t be impolite and accept your offer…” Allen grins. Although he had said before that he only came here because he wanted to warn her for the upcoming terrible future and probably teach her about the real nature of men –Still, being the one who will accept her love was also not bad~

Might as well, take this water and let it flow to his field rather than let anyone benefit it~

Allen was always selfish~

“Let’s sign a blood contract!” Lama suddenly proposed.

Allen was suddenly startled. Was he that untrustworthy…?

“I can’t believe your words… I had been betrayed most of my life. Still, I guess learning this ability was indeed the right choice… “ Lama smiled mischievously. “With this, you can’ go back on your words, ever.”

Then why did you not used it in the previous life!!?

“If you have that, then what had happened in the future…?”

“I don’t know…” Lama shrugs. “In fact, I had forgotten about this thing all these time. But when you said that men I will meet in my life would just betray me… I just suddenly remembered this thing. What? You afraid?”

This air-headed woman and her love-filled brain!!

“Of course, I don’t mind… but before that, can you pick those Lava Fruits for me, I’m extremely interested in those things!”

“Alright, I still have some many of those things~” For the first time, Lama showed the first sincere and natural smile up until now…

… …

… …

What can I say?

Lama was actually a wealthy person!!

Forget about the Lava Fruit numbering into over twenty in her arsenal, the magical weapons she had and skill tablets were all around over twenty in total.

Not just that, as a typical Naga, her interest in treasures like Gold and Silver ornaments was quite praiseworthy. She actually had at least three large chests with the size of meter wide and height –filled with those things.

And most importantly; [ Fire Massacre ] - A Legend tier Halberd.

So she was the one who gave it to Vlad making his power in the previous life even stronger~

… …

After signing the blood contract, Allen also asks Lama if he could tame her.

Lama shrugs and agreed. In any case, it’s just taming.

The blood contract was still in effect.

With Lama’s support, Allen and Laura easily conquered the Dungeon.

Allen gained a huge amount of experience while Laura already closes to reaching the Peak Rook level.

But what gave Allen the most surprising was that, after conquering the Dungeon, an unexpected prompt appeared;

*Ding! [ Congratulations! You have successfully conquered the Dungeon [ Trial of Fire ]! ]

[ Solomon’s Divine Grimoire resonated with the Dungeon’s core – Do you want to copy the Dungeon on the Solomon’s Divine Grimoire? Yes or No ]

It can do that…!?

Allen immediately chooses 'yes' and the prompt; [ Copying 20%... 30% … ]

And after a few minutes, *Ding! [ Congratulations on successfully copying the Dungeon [ Trial of Fire ]. Now inhabitants of Solomon’s Divine Grimoire can now use and enter the Dungeon [ Trial of Fire ]! ]

It’s unfortunate that he can’t still enter the Grimoire’s world but that was only for now!

He should be able to the moment he had managed to reach a certain level!

And if that time comes, he would be able to use the Grimoire’s World for Mia and the others training!

After sweeping back the Dungeon again, Allen and Laura, along with their new companion, Lama left the Dungeon.

“It’s night already…” Allen muttered as he looked at the dark sky. Stars shining like jewels scattered all over the sky, giving it beautiful scenery.

“Yeah, and I think the young master really needs to rest now…” Laura said with a worried expression.

“Alright, I will if that’s what you want,” Allen smiled wryly as.

He took out a huge blanket and placed it on the ground.

After it, he also took out foods and served it.

“The others should also be resting right now…” In any case, there’s Alkrasha and my Clone.

After eating, Allen lied on the blanket. At this moment, Laura scooted and raised Allen’s head and placed it on her lap instead. She then looked at him with eyes full of profound love and affection.

“Young master, please rest. I will watch over you…” She said with a beautiful smile.

Allen nodded and closed his eyes. When suddenly, Lama lied down and used Allen’s chest as a pillow and slept while hugging him.

Laura’s eyebrows rose a bit but she didn’t say anything and continued about stroking Allen’s hair gently.

She completely disregards Lama’s existence.

She really likes these simple events. It felt as if she was inside a movie, having a romantic session with the one she loves most.
