She was somehow expecting that he'd question her 'cause he would have been surprised when he didn't find her after arriving at the compound yesterday.

..She was expecting the questioning from him, but she wasn't expecting that it would happen today.

She wasn't expecting that he'd come to her house to ask the question, to know the reason why she suddenly disappeared yesterday. And this wasn't something she wanted them to discuss in the house.

She doesn't want any of the servants to hear, so they should talk about it outside, that was Lucia's plan.

Before the boy could say anything else, Lucia's voice resounded, "Let's talk about it outside".

"Why?". He inquired.

"No serious reason, let's just talk about it outside". Lucia's voice resounded again.

"Okay, if you say so".

The both of them stood up from the chairs they were sitting on and began walking out of the house. The boy came from his home to Lucia's home to question her, one question...that was how serious it was to him.

..Just as serious as it was for the knight.

But as known, Lucia had already resolved, the boy must never find out about what happened between her and Aiden. They had arrived at the compound by now, and the both of them were glancing at each other currently.

Then the boy's voice resounded, "As I said, I am here because of yesterday. I arrived at the compound but couldn't find you, you suddenly disappeared. The knight that does pick you up from school was searching around for you too,

He asked if I knew where you went, but my answer was no. I was surprised, like, I was expecting to see you on the compound as usual, I was confused. Where did you go to? Or did you go home yourself?".

'I visited an inn with a certain charming boy, and we had sex'. That's what Lucia told him as the answer to his question.

..Big lie, that wasn't what she told him, she wouldn't dare do that.

That's like exposing herself with her own hands. She was gonna tell him what she told the knight, the same lie. Her voice resounded,

"I hung out with some friends in my classroom, we visited some places and all that. You know, it's been long since I did something like that, so I decided to do it".

"You suddenly decided to hang out with friends?". The boy inquired with a kind of perplexed expression on his face.

"Yes, anything wrong with that?". Lucia uttered.

"Umm...no, there's nothing wrong with that. But you didn't even try to inform me or something like that? If you had told me, then I wouldn't have been confused, I wouldn't have searched around for you,

That's the same case for the knight that does pick you up from school, or let me use the word us. You should have informed him that you'd be hanging out with friends so he wouldn't have bothered searching for you, or he wouldn't have come at all,

He rode only me home yesterday when we couldn't find you, do you know that? We were really surprised". The boy voiced out.

Lucia sighed a little before uttering once again, "I didn't know it would happen, it was an impromptu plan. If I had known, I would have informed you and him ahead of time. As I said, it was an impromptu plan".

"Who are the friends you hung out with? Do I know them?". The boy inquired.

And Lucia was just like, 'Why this question?'.

..Of course, she didn't say it out loud, it was in her mind.

"Describing them would be a problem right now, you know I have many female friends in my classroom, so where do you want me to start from? All I know is that I hung out with some female friends". Lucia said.

The boy nodded his head a little before stating, "But do you know something?".

"Know what?".

"What you did was a little risky, you know, hanging out with friends just like that. You're the daughter of a high-ranked chief, the daughter of an official, you need to be cautious, anything can happen at any time".

The same thing the knight said to her, she understood what they were saying, but would hanging out with friends once in a while endanger her life? Well, she knew she was lying to them, she didn't really hang out with friends...

..She had sex with Aiden.

And while they were walking on the road heading toward an inn, she was being cautious. She tried her best so people wouldn't recognize her as Lucia Squire, the daughter of a high-ranked chief.

And even after they had arrived at an inn, she was still being cautious. She didn't do the payment 'cause she was being cautious, she didn't want anyone to recognize her as Lucia Squire.

"I was being cautious, don't worry about it. And hanging out with friends once in a while can't endanger my life just like that?". Lucia uttered glancing at the boy.

"You'd be surprised, as I said, anything can happen at any time".

"But you know what, I'm still gonna hang out with friends some more, it hasn't ended. So I want you to know it would happen again".

She needed to tell him this now since she's already told the knight...

As known, according to the agreement, she and Aiden planned on having continuous sex.

"So it's gonna repeat itself?". The boy inquired.

"Yes". Lucia responded.

"So I can just arrive at the compound on a certain day, and I wouldn't find you?".

"I'd try to inform you ahead of time if it doesn't happen impromptu".

"So this is something new, something you want to start? What if your parents find out about it? Especially your dad? He wouldn't be happy at all. His daughter roaming about in the city in the name of hanging out". The boy voiced out.

"Well, I'd make sure they don't find out, unless you betray me. It isn't bad to hang out with friends, you've hung out with friends as well, I'd try to be cautious. And you know what, the knight that does pick me up from school is already aware of this,

We've agreed on something, whenever I want to hang out with friends again, I'd just need to inform him". Uttered Lucia.

The boy nodded his head a little, sighed, then voiced out, "Well, all the best, I wouldn't betray you though. True, it isn't bad to hang out with friends, I just need you to be cautious, you know how much I care about you".

A little smile appeared on Lucia's face as she nodded her head a little. Look at how she was deceiving them...Damn! They had no idea what was really going on, what she truly did yesterday.

Well, the boy had questioned her and gotten the answer he needed, and they had conversed about it as well. But he doesn't plan on leaving yet, he wanted to spend some time with Lucia before leaving.

..He wasn't suspecting anything at all, Lucia did a really good job deceiving him.

******

As for Aiden, at the time Lucia was being questioned, he was lying on his bed with a smile on his face. When the knight was questioning her, he was lying on the bed.

When the boy she was close to was questioning her, he was lying on the bed as well. And he was doing it with a gladdened heart, it felt so nice finally accomplishing his first main quest.

..You see, the both of them banged, he benefited more from the banging, but it was Lucia that was questioned.

Well, that's how life is, he didn't really care about it. As known, today was a free day for all students. So when morning had arrived and people in the Dankworth family were already getting up from bed, Aiden was still lying on his bed.

He had opened his eyes though, but he just found it hard to get up from it. Well, he later got up from it, took his bath, brushed his teeth, and so on. Then the Dankworth family had breakfast.

It was within this time they were having breakfast that the knight was questioning Lucia. After they were done having breakfast, Aiden went back into his room and lay on his bed once again.

He spent minutes on his bed without dozing off, and within that time, that's when the boy arrived at Lucia's home and questioned her. Throughout the time they were discussing the topic, Aiden was still lying on his bed.

Until they were done discussing the topic, Aiden was still lying on his bed. And as said, there was a little smile on his face, the fact that he had accomplished his first main quest was making him glad.

..You know that feeling of finally taking a certain burden off your chest, yes, that's how Aiden was feeling right now.

He thought of how the system proved herself undefeatable again, and the smile on his face couldn't help but broaden...
