Chapter 283: Can I Sleep in Your Room?
After rearranging his thoughts and deciding on his next course of action, he glanced at the princess for a moment. To be honest, he would have liked to make this princess his slave using the Everlasting Demonic Follower, but after giving it much thought, he decided to refrain. She was the princess of this empire, and if something happened to her, it could cause significant trouble.
After seeing her memories, he realized her love for the Lust Devil was profoundly deep—so much so that she would willingly sacrifice herself for that bastard. It wasn’t surprising, considering the Lust Devil had given her more attention than others and had already slept with her many times. With the Lust Devil’s techniques and the affection she received, she would rather face death, even if it meant being reduced to a retard due to the pain within her soul.
Aldrian never underestimated the power of a woman in love, especially when it came to blind devotion. He decided to let Princess Loraine go without taking any drastic action.
However, given how the princess seemed to obey any order as long as the Lust Devil’s name was invoked, he knew he could take full advantage of it. There was no need to use the Everlasting Demonic Follower to bind Princess Loraine—he could simply use the name of the Lust Devil to control her.
Not long after, Aldrian disappeared from her room and reappeared on the mansion’s rooftop. He sat there, scanning the entire mansion to see if anything caught his attention. He also checked on his father once more, and after ensuring there was nothing unusual, he withdrew his senses.
His gaze shifted to the full moon glowing brightly in the night sky. His calm, expressionless face hinted at unspoken thoughts. He seemed to simply be enjoying the cool night breeze and the serene silence of the evening.
Not long after, he disappeared from the mansion. No one, except for those he visited in the dungeon and Kroz, knew that he had been to the Flamecrest mansion complex.

He reappeared inside his room at the inn and stretched his body. Tonight had been quite fruitful, and he was satisfied with it. He considered sitting down to meditate but he sensed someone outside his door. A warm smile spread across his face as he recognized who it was, and he opened the door.
Standing there was Sylphia, wrapped in a black robe. Her flushed face and nervous demeanor suggested she was both shy as though she wanted something from him. He guessed that Sylphia must have been waiting for him for quite some time.
After waiting for some time, Sylphia still didn’t speak and instead lowered her head. Aldrian smiled in amusement at the sight but eventually decided to nudge her.
