Noticing this, Amara gave a last glare at the young demoness before turning around and walking inside the shop with Beille.
Max followed them with his head lowered.
Seeing them walk away, the crowd dispersed while the young demoness sighed in relief. After finding out that Amara was the branch leader's daughter and also knew Beille, who was the mysterious owner of the Beille's shop, she had thought that she would definitely lose her job. But fortunately, it didn't happen.
…
Beille had led Amara and Max to a luxurious room at the back of the shop.
Beille and Amara were sitting on a sofa side by side, chatting merrily while Max was standing behind them.
He had thought Beille wouldn't want him to enter the room, so he was prepared to stand outside, but surprisingly, Beille herself had asked him to come inside.
After hearing their conversation, he found out Beille's identity. Apart from being the medicine shop's owner, she was the wife of Orlan's deceased brother.
"So, do you have something you want to tell me?" Beille asked Amara with a meaningful smile.
Amara revealed a confused expression before suddenly realising that she might be talking about her bloodline awakening. So, she asked, "Why are you asking when you've already found out?"
"Mm?" Beille raised her brows when she heard her nonchalant answer and said, "I want to hear it from you."
"Alright. I've awakened my bloodline." Amara said with a smile.
"What? Is that true?" Beille revealed an astonished expression.
"Of course. It's true. Didn't you already find out about it?" Amara rolled her eyes at her.
"No. I just returned to the city, and no one has sent me any message regarding this." Beille shook her head.
Hearing this, Amara was puzzled. Although Beille loved to tease her, Amara knew she had never lied to her. If she said she didn't know about it, then it must be true. So, she asked in confusion, "So, what did you want me to tell you just now?"
"Hehe, how long are you going to feign ignorance?" Beille giggled while giving Max a glance. Max and Amara both shivered when they noticed this and remembered that they didn't take clean themselves after having sex just now.
'Fuck!' Max cursed inwardly. He had completely forgotten about it because he didn't sweat much and Amara had cleaned the little brother. As for Amara, she didn't take a bath because she was in a hurry to get him out of her room.
After a moment, Amara calmed down and indifferently said, "What's there to tell? I wanted to try it but didn't want to do it with anyone from the city, so I chose him since he has saved my life and is loyal to me."
Hearing this, Beille was silent for a while and then nodded. "Alright. But do you not know if your father or anyone else found out that you, the princess of this branch, gave your first time to this human, you'll be severely punished and he will be executed?"
"How would they find out? You aren't going to tell on me, right?" Amara asked with a smile.
Pat!
Beille hit Amara's head and said, "If you two kept roaming around with each other's scent on you, let alone your father, the entire city would find out."
"Oww." Amara rubbed her head and awkwardly said, "I forgot about it because I was in a hurry." She then asked, "Can I use your bathroom?"
"Although I want to say no. but I'm afraid you'll be in trouble if you walked around in your condition. Sigh. Who told me to love you so much?" Beille exaggeratingly sighed and then motioned her to go and clean herself.
Hearing this, Amara immediately stood up and walked toward the attached bathroom. Just as she was about to enter, she heard Beille's teasing voice, "Why are you going alone? Take your little lover with you."
Amara almost staggered when she heard this. She then glared at her and snorted, "Can you not talk nonsense for a while?"
Before Beille could say anything in reply, Amara entered the bathroom and closed the door.
Beille's stopped smiling and turned around to look at Max.
Feeling her gaze, Max became a little nervous. Noticing this, Beille chuckled, "Don't worry, human. I won't do anything to you since have saved my lovely niece's life and are her slave."
Hearing this, Max finally raised her head and nodded lightly. "Thank you."
Beille continued to stare at him. It was as if she was trying to see through him.
Suddenly, she frowned and murmured, "That's strange." Then she moved without any warning.
Whoosh!
Before he could react, she had appeared in front of him, put her hand on his head and closed her eyes.
Max wanted to struggle free, but he couldn't even blink, nor he could speak. She had completely immobilized him.
After a few seconds, she released him and asked, "Why can't I feel anything apart from your current realm? You have some treasure on you?"
Max was boiling with rage right now, but he managed to calm down since the anger won't do anything good for him.
When he heard her question, he shook his head. "I don't know what you are talking about."
Hearing this, Beille showed a mocking smile and flicked her finger toward him.
Fwoosh!
A wave of energy enveloped him and shredded his clothes, including his undergarments, in pieces.
Max's eyes widened. He hurriedly covered his crotch and couldn't help but shout out, "Have you gone crazy?"
"Mm?" Beille frowned when she heard this. Looking into his eyes, she coldly said, "Do you believe I can kill you with a flick of my finger right now?"
Hearing her threat, Max was less afraid and more angry. But since she was a lot stronger than him, he couldn't do anything about it.
"Tell me? Do you believe me?" She asked again when he didn't say anything.
Max gritted his teeth and nodded, "I do." He then swore in his mind, 'I'll pay back this humiliation several folds in future and make you beg for mercy under me.'
