Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?!
Chapter 108 - 108 - End of the First Semester

The academe of Gnosis has four semesters in a year. It means that students can take in a lot more classes in a span of a year compared to schools back in earth. The end of the semester also signified that we may have new male enrollees soon who are looking for business connections and marriages.

Some of the men will also leave to go back to their territories for the one-week class break. Some of them will come back for the next semester while others won't. As for me, I couldn't care less. What I am excited about is the one week break I will have before the next semester starts. I could do a lot of things in one week!

As for Ioannis, I haven't told him yet but I think he has already felt it since that day when he started to be able to send and receive telepathic messages from me. Finally, Ioannis has been fully converted into a mystique with Eienean decent. He has been "well-nourished" by me all this time so he was changed faster.

As for Kayden whom I only "nourish" a few times in a month, he may still need to wait about a month or two. The last step in the full conversion is bringing him to my kingdom. I will register him to the Eieneos family records to finalize everything. I finally added one member to the kingdom though it wasn't a baby heir that the gods are expecting me to have.

These past one and a half months have been amazing in terms of business. The city has grown based on the plans Aurum and I have agreed on. As for my part of the earnings that was included in the contract, I have been getting it on schedule. Void has been continuously giving me reports about the other mystique races and I have been giving him and his people nourishment through mystique mana orbs and lust orbs I have been providing.

I have been to the magic tower several times since the last time I met Mr. Tangerine to answer some money-making questions in that room of theirs but I have never seen him even once. I thought I wouldn't care but somehow I felt a little worried for that stalker of mine. Never mind. His backer is the grandmaster of the magic tower so he will be fine.

Today is the end of semester celebrations for the academe which also serves as a "despedida" as we call it back in my country for those that will go back to their territories for good. We had to dress up a bit more lavishly for this party so I had to find a good old tailor or seamstress in this city. I found one, and the owner of the shop is quite handsome and looked deli-. Oh, ignore that *coughs*.

The clothes he makes were beautiful so I picked him out of all my options and I gave my personally-drawn design. He was able to recreate it in just three days and he also made some clothes for Ioannis and Arthur since I have to bring them with me to the party. So, here I am looking pretty as ever and the two guys with me, handsome and dashing.

I might consider investing on this tailor guy's business in the future since one of the things on my checklist is adding better looking clothing options to the fashion of this world. I am totally not thinking about it since he's handsome, not at all.

The party was quite fun and interesting, almost similar to the balls of nobilities in the books I have read before. There were lots of food and the venue was quaint but in a good way. It was classy and looked expensive so I've got to give it to whoever planned it.

I stayed on one side together with my two guys and I just let them go and bring me food and drinks once in a while. I allowed them to talk with their acquaintances since I prefer solitude in these noisy gatherings.

During one of the moments where I was left alone, Dimitri approached me again to have a private conversation. I walked to the balcony of the venue to have a talk with him away from the noisy crowd. This scene looked like we are having a romantic tryst under the night sky.

Ugh! This is Arthur's fault. He made me think that scenes in my life was part of a huge TV drama.

I know Ioannis will look for me eventually as he saw me go to the balcony. I looked him in the eyes and smiled at him. I gave him a telepathic message ordering him to follow me to the balcony after 10 minutes and he replied with a curt "Yes".

Back in the balcony, I went down to business immediately while making sure that I keep a safe distance from Dimitri. I don't want rumors circulating that I am dating him. Dimitri must have noticed it and simply smiled at me helplessly.

I asked, "Have you considered my proposal?"

He then looked at me and sighed heavily, "I accept your proposal but I need to add a bit more to the deal from my side."

I raised my right eyebrow since I feel like this addition is going to be a loss for me. When he noticed I am not responding, he continued, "I want you to give me the title of a "fiancé" for a year and give me a chance to pursue you and show my abilities to prove myself worthy for you to take me in. No intimacy is expected from both sides but if you want to be intimate with me I will oblige since I like you anyways. If you end up taking my purity though, you'll have to marry me."

I laughed at his response and answered, "Are you going to seduce me using the "beauty and brains" concept?"

I giggled and told him, "Do you know that somebody has offered me a contract similar to what you are offering? I can say though that you are smarter since you included the "fiancé" title with yours which makes it more intriguing for me. I will definitely tell him about this soon just to see his crestfallen face."

He stared at me as if mesmerized by my laugh and he couldn't help but ask, "Do I know this man who made a similar deal with you?"

I answered non-chalantly and still giggling a bit, "It's the ex-crown prince." His eyes widened and he looked down. He even swallowed hard maybe due to nervousness since I heard that loud gulping sound from his throat. Aurum must be scary for everybody in this kingdom.

He looked up in the sky and then asked, "Are you going to accept my addition to the proposal?"

I looked at him and smiled, "You're going to regret including the intimacy to this since I will definitely take advantage of the permission you are giving me."

He looked at me and blushed like a beet. He looked away shyly but still said, "You have to come to the southern territory with me during this semestral break to meet my grandparents. It will also be your chance to go through the properties included in the agreement so we could plan the improvements and points to earn more profit together."

Just before saying yes, I called onto Ioannis that I knew was listening in from the start of our conversation. He obeyed me about not interfering during the first 10 minutes but it doesn't mean he will leave me alone with this guy at all. His jealousy is so cute.

I beckoned to him, "Ioannis, come here so I can introduce you." Ioannis got out of the shadows of a nearby pillar and walked confidently towards me then stood a little bit behind me.

I then introduced him to Dimitri, "Ioannis, this is Dimitri. He was the one I met with at the academe fountain a few weeks back and he is now my temporary fiancé for a year. Dimitri, this is Ioannis. He's the first husband I chose from the time I was summoned to this world. I have a second husband outside the academe so if there are no complications and I learn to like you, you would be the third one."

I saw the surprise in Dimitri's eyes since he may have thought that Ioannis was just an attendant I was very fond of. I will hide Nische's identity for now. I'll just deal with it once he is awake from his slumber.

Ioannis held out his hand and Dimitri held out his for a handshake with emotionless faces. I really admire how tough men's hearts are in this world. This jealous puppy is actually shaking the hand of a possible rival in the future. He also shook Kayden's hand before with the same facial expression.

I honestly feel a bit scared since he's a mystique now so he can kill humans like they're ants. I'll just have to pacify him later.

I then told Dimitri that I will be bringing Ioannis with me and we will stay in his hometown for only a day or two since I have a lot of things I have scheduled for the break. He then told me that it would be fine as long as the formal meeting between the families are completed and the engagement papers are signed. I don't even know if his grandparents would agree to the setup he wants but it's his job to explain the contents of the agreement to them. I simply accepted the proposal since I found it promising and beneficial.

As I said that I would bring Ioannis with me, his head snapped to look at me and I can see the surprise and a hint of joy in his eyes. I looked at him and telepathically asked him, "What?"

He telepathically answered, "Thank you." My face looked blank and I asked him again, "For what?" He answered,"I'll tell you later." He then smiled at me.

As for the other guy that got ignored by us two, he was just observing the two of us with a blank face but I can see a hint of envy in his eyes. He simply stayed quiet and looked down to hide his emotions.

He then spoke, "I'll pick you up from your dorm tomorrow at dawn." I simply answered, "Sure."

Ioannis and I then walked together to return to the party, leaving Dimitri on his own at the balcony. As for the other beings listening in to our conversation, I couldn't care less.

One was from the academe, the other one was from Aurum, another one was Void and the fourth one, felt familiar but I couldn't pinpoint where I met him. I am tired so I did not want to think about it and simply returned to the party hall, bid our goodbyes and went back to the dorms.

As for Arthur, I ordered him to go back to the attendant's hall this week and I gave him permission to take in other tasks to earn points while I'm away. I have shared with him the things Ioannis and I found out about earning points which he was very thankful for. I should check on his points and buyout price one of these days.
