For the next whole week, Nux spent his blissful days under the skirts of Felberta, Skyla, and Lane.

He was really happy to get back to his previous schedule. Although he did not gain any decent improvement in his strength, the pleasure he felt and the happy smiles his women had the whole time was enough for him.

However, this did not mean that he didn't work.

A day ago, he activated his [Conceal] and left the kingdom to enter the Woods Dynasty, he then entered one of the most renowned merchant companies before sealing a few of their products.

No, he did not buy them, and he did not feel even the slightest guilt in his heart while stealing them.

'It won't affect a big company like this one if I steal some of their goods.'

Thinking that, he stole whatever he found was good and returned it.

It took him 2 days to leave, steal, and return.

After that, he spends another blissful day before it was time to meet Annice, the maid of the Royal palace who is out on her week off.

…

Right now, Nux was wearing an expensive-looking purple coloured robe. Combined with his raven hair, his hypnotic golden coloured eyes, and exquisitely carved face, he looked amazingly charming.

"Looking like that, would you even need to bribe that Annice girl at all? She might even agree to do anything for you say just so she could talk to you for a little longer. Hmph! Hmph!" Felberta snorted.

Although they didn't say anything, from the way they were nodding, Skyla and Lane completely agreed with her.

"I can bribe her with my body, can't I?" Nux chuckled, Felberta just snorted in answer, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

"Haha~ You are so cute~ Now tell me, do I look good?" Nux questioned with a charming smile.

The three women nodded, Lane even had a blush on her face.

"Then why don't you three give me a good luck kiss on my lips?"

The three of them nodded again with bright eyes before coming forward one by one and sealing his lips.

After tasting all of their lips, Nux turned towards Skyla and nodded, "I will be counting on you today"

Skyla nodded with a determined look as if she was going into a war. With her child-like face, her expression looked very adorable.

…*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

An hour later, Skyla knocked in front of a door of an unknown house.

The door opened and a girl in her twenties appeared.

She was Annice Welche, a 27-year-old girl who works as a maid in the royal palace. She had blonde hair, crystal blue eyes, a small nose, and cherry red lips. She had cute freckles on her face and a thin body.

She was definitely above average in terms of looks, but when compared to the likes of Skyla, Lane, or Felberta, she was greatly overshadowed.

"Annice! Long time no see!" Skyla greeted with a smile.

"…" However, Annice, right now, was busy glancing at the charming man with an exquisite face standing right in front of her and didn't reply.

"Annice!" Skyla then patted her shoulder and she finally came out of her reverie.

"O-Oh! S-Skyla! Long time no see! What are you doing here?" She questioned, however she kept sneaking a few glancing at Nux as she said that.

"Nothing, I was just buying something for Viscount Felberta when this gentleman approached me and questioned the way he can get in touch with a maid working in the royal palace. I instantly remembered that it must your off right now and brought him here" Skyla explained.

"Oh! I understand" Annice nodded to Skyla before her eyes glanced at Nux and she smiled brightly, "What can I help you with, gentleman?"

"Hello, beautiful lady, my name is Dio Brando, the leader of Brando Merchant Company from the Woods Dynasty. Can we talk inside?"

Nux replied with the most charming smile he could make, of course, he did not forget to use his [Eye Of Discerning]. _{ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀ​ꪶ​}

…

His smile seemed to have worked as Annice's face turned a little red as she replied,

"O-Oh I am so sorry! Ple- please come inside"

"T-Then I'll take my leave" Skyla muttered.

"Miss, I am thankful for your help"

"D-don't mention it" Skyla replied.

"Skyla, don't forget to meet your best friend later, come over tomorrow, we will catch up"

"Yeah, I'll come" Skyla wondered when she became her best friend but since she didn't want to sound rude, she nodded before leaving.

'Looking at her expression, I think the first step will be easy' she thought inwardly as she continued searching a few shops to continue her act before leaving.

On the other hand, Nux entered Annice's house and sat on a chair.

"I-I am really sorry, I don't live here often so the furniture isn't well maintained."

"I understand, to work so hard that you don't even have the time to furnish your house, you are a hardworking lady." Nux complimented with a smile.

Annice blushed when she heard that and a small smile appeared on her face. Although he misunderstood what she meant, she did not have any intention to correct him.

"Oh! Where are my manners, let me bring something for you to eat"

"You don't really-"

"I can't do that; I have to treat my guests well"

Nux gave up and nodded. Of course, he used his [Sense] to see if she was doing or thinking anything weird but seeing that she was just making tea with a blush, he smiled and shook his head.

…

A few minutes later, Annice returned with tea and some cookies.

"I am sorry for the wait"

"It's not a problem" He then drank a sip before his eyes lit up, "Delicious! Waiting for a few minutes? I can even wait for hours to drink this tea. Your hands are simply magical!" Nux praised wholeheartedly.
