Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

Chapter 173 - 133: Hassaka Cleaning Up Traces and the Sweeping Craze Across the Duchy (12000, 48/65)



The next day, early in the morning, Kael was woken up by the faint noise coming from his home.

Hassaka slowly raised his head, gently cleaned the stains remaining on Kael, and then carefully helped him change into clean clothes. It was only after they had descended the stairs that he began to clean up the scene.

As soon as Kael went downstairs, he saw his teacher Luxius, who was presently drinking tea in the hall with Old White’s company.

He was somewhat surprised and looked towards Luxius, saying, "Teacher, are you also going with me today?"

Kael looked at his teacher with curiosity. He truly did not expect Luxius to plan on accompanying him today.

"I heard you are meeting the Lion Heart today. I couldn’t possibly let you go alone. It has been a while since I’ve properly chatted with this big boss. Today we’ll go as if to catch up on old times,"

Luxius said calmly after taking a sip of his tea.

He didn’t voice his concerns about Kael but silently offered his support.

Luxius was undoubtedly a good teacher, completely devoted and diligent with his students.

Honestly, Kael was moved.

But what he didn’t know was that Luxius intended, after Kael had made the opening remarks, to personally take over and engage in debate with the Lion Heart.

This method was familiar to him!

During the Spell degree debates led by his students, it usually started with the students, followed by the old mages’ pointers here and there. Then Luxius would step in, guide the discourse, and persuade the contradictors until they could no longer voice their disagreement.

Now, it was simply a change of setting from old mages to the Lion Heart, basically no difference... Well, he admitted there was still a difference.

Thinking of the Lion Heart, Luxius’s expression became solemn.

Do not be fooled; although he chatted happily with the Lion Heart on the rooftop last night, it was partly because their relationship was not exactly that of subordinate and superior but more akin to that of an investor and investee.

He only needed to be accountable for his results. At worst, if the results were poor, the investor would flee. There was no real control between the two.

Furthermore, his strength was indeed formidable. In such circumstances, their communication was more equal and normal.

But it was different for Kael. Strictly speaking, the Lion Heart was his monarch.

Although he was articulate when arguing with the Lion Heart, in reality, he was extremely worried about Kael.

Kael gladly accepted Luxius’s kindness.

For matters like these, which clearly needed the teacher’s assistance to achieve better results, he was not about to reject Luxius’s help due to undue pride.

When he could reciprocate his teacher’s help in the future, he would make an effort to repay it.

The teacher-student relationship could be more straightforward and pure.

"Let’s go. Get ready. The real person to pick you up has arrived," Luxius said with a smile at the corner of his mouth, as he heard the carriage outside.

He stealthily glanced at Kael, silent, yet his mood began to thrill.

My student, today there will indeed be a real spectacle. Let’s see if you are worthy of breaking the deadlock!

It wasn’t that he wanted to be cryptic, but rather, he simply did not want his actions to jeopardize that fierce old lion’s plans.

After all, in the Bell Federation, aside from that ruler seated on the Golden Throne for over 200 years, the Lion Heart was the very embodiment of the federation’s violent extremes.

Even as a Magic Monarch, when he spoke with this middle-aged man who always smiled, he inevitably felt a stunning sense of oppression.

He would help his student, yes, but he didn’t want to personally experience what it was like when the furious old lion took action.

If he accidentally sacrificed himself in the process, he could die from sorrow. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

What Kael did not know, after carefully reflecting on recent events, was that he could almost confirm he had entered the Lion Heart’s radar.

The incident at Romance Street still sent chills down his spine when he thought about it.

He had guessed that a great noble was shielding this gray zone behind Romance Street, but indeed, he had not expected that the person who advocated for the establishment of Romance Street would be the true ruler behind the Duchy.

"At least from the current situation, the Lion Heart does not have any significant objection to my actions.

I initially thought that with the backing of my teacher and several figures from the Church, even if there were dissenters, they would be turned away immediately.

Little did I expect that the first to be attracted were not a bunch of ineffectual dross but indeed the Iron King himself.

Now it appears that just the promotion and publicity of the novel industry had probably caught the attention of this ruler of the Duchy early on.

Damn, although I had overestimated the natives’ vigilance, it now seems, the one who truly committed the sin of pride was me!"

With this slightly uneasy mindset, he left the house and saw the Fox Knight at the door.

After nodding to each other, Kael got into the carriage under Old White’s guidance.

Throughout the journey, he remained silent, occasionally listening to Luxius mention some things to be cautious about:

"My boy, when you interact with the Lion Heart, remember, it’s better to misspeak than to attempt to lie. However, I must admit, you have a good housekeeper; many details have already been sorted out for you in advance."
