My Interracial Harem of Beautiful Queens - Chapter 262: Red... heh, and our aristocrat is a cool woman

Happy March 8th to everyone. Sorry for disappearing. I’ve been busy with two other books:

Mission: Seduce the Master! – a book in the xianxia genre where the main character receives a system and rises to the top by seducing immortal fairies. Harem, R18, etc.

The Unbridled Life of a Lusty Reincarnator – is a book about a man who can reincarnate without limits. The title suggests the direction of development.

I would be glad if you added them to your collection. It would help me a lot.

“Elrion and Adam. I’ve been looking for you.”

This authoritative female voice… Adam turned his head.

Behind him stood she – Knight Clinton.

Her long black hair was tied up in a neat hairstyle, she looked noble. Her shining chestnut eyes, in which no emotions could be found, carefully observed both of them, while her slender muscular body attracted attention to itself.

She wore a beautiful dark blue dress with a slit on the leg that didn’t reveal much but was even more enticing because of it.

“Greetings, Respected Knight”

Adam and Elrion were obliged to follow etiquette when meeting a noble. Therefore, they bowed and greeted her in a friendly tone.

“Hm. I was very pleased with your performance at the competition, you played brilliantly” said Barbara, and then weakly smiled, adding: “After that, many people approached me to buy you, Adam… and Elrion has more than twenty letters with job invitations to the capital,”

“Oh…”

“Mm…”

Elrion’s reaction was much brighter. His cheeks blushed with excitement and he smiled brightly from ear to ear, looking excited. After this competition, his spark of love for his work ignited, turning into a fierce flame.

With Lady Clinton’s support, who could say he was not worthy in the future? On the contrary, now many are fighting to take him into their team.

“Thank you for your praise. I think I was very lucky with my partner,” Elrion humbly said.

How could he not understand the truth? Adam was a handsome man who was hard to find, and if Elrion had said that the competition was won only because of his design, then criticism would immediately fall on the man.

Thus, he gratefully looked at Adam, who simply smiled, shrugging his shoulders.

“I think we need to choose a more private place to talk,” said Barbara, and turned on her heels, waving her hand at them: “Follow me.”

“Okay”

Adam took a small breath and felt a faint scent of fragrant flowers. He could not help but compliment this woman’s taste. After all, rich ladies think differently.

Along with respect and interest in Barbara, he was also very wary. How could he not notice that she almost didn’t trust him? Only thanks to his victory in the competition, which raised Barbara’s reputation, he was able to gain minimal trust in his personality.

He had no doubt. This woman had checked his past and there were many holes in it. His first appearance was precisely in the village of Bean, and as for his identity… she did not accept him as a spy, because he was too weak, but was undoubtedly on guard.

To ensure a confidential conversation, a room was arranged with soundproofing and many anti-spy measures. Two guards stood behind the door, emanating a threatening energy.

And so, when they had already sat down, a bag suddenly fell on the table.

“What is this?” asked Elrion curiously.

“…” Adam remained silent.

By the sound of the coins… he immediately realized that this was their reward. The sound was not metallic, which meant…

“Coins worth 10,000… and there are many of them,” he thought excitedly.

And his thoughts were close to the truth. Barbara casually waved her hand and the butler put another bag, larger.

“The one on the left is larger for you, Elrion. There is also an amount there for ordering some clothing from several of my acquaintances. They want what you presented at the competition,” she said and then turned, pushing the bag on the right to Adam, narrowing her eyes: “And this is for you, young seducer. Your appearance on stage secured my victory and I was very pleased. A certain person asked me to pass something on to you.”

“I’m all ears, respected,” Adam replied.

“Heh… well, in short, she offers you to become her lover. She won’t leave you in want, here are her proposed rewards,” said Barbara with a smile, and unfolded her hand, showing her palm. Then she began to bend her fingers one by one: “A house, a carriage, wealth, beautiful servants, develop your potential as a practitioner. What do you say?”

“This…”

Adam remained silent, not trying to give an instant answer. Even Elrion looked tempted.

The truth was the truth. The conditions were too good and he even received support to achieve his goals, which was also not bad for him. But…

“I don’t think I can accept her conditions, as there is someone I like,” Adam replied with a polite smile.

“Well, as you wish. Be assured, she will not cause problems, but clearly will not abandon this idea. Good luck,” said Barbara with a smirk, and her shoulders shook – it seemed she was barely holding back laughter.

Adam rolled his eyes. Of course, his reason was half-true. He simply didn’t want to become a sex toy for a rich woman, even if he was paid for it. Her love would be too fiery for her to treat him more friendly.

Barbara also understood that this was not the main reason, but she didn’t care. The very fact that she was forced to play matchmaker made her giggle with annoyance, but the person who proposed this was too influential for her to refuse him.

“One way or another, I have given you the reward, so my conscience is clear,” she said and sensually crossed her legs.

Elrion averted his gaze, and Adam unashamedly caught the moment “x” and captured something red. He was not ashamed, and why should he be?

“Red… heh, and our aristocrat is a lively woman,” he thought in his mind, but his face was unchanging.

One way or another, soon Barbara moved on to the main question, which was more related to Elrion.

“Elrion, I know about the invitations to the capital and their proposals are tempting,” said Barbara, but then added a confident smile: “Ten million. That’s how much I’ll invest in your business and help you establish connections if you agree to work with me.”

“This…”

Elrion fell silent, his gaze reflected all the shock he felt at that moment. It was clear that he was very tempted by this offer. He looked at Barbara with a complex expression on his face.

“Give… me a few minutes to think about it,” he said.

“Of course, think as much as you want,” nodding, said Barbara, and then turned her gaze to Adam, raising an eyebrow: “I noticed that during the ball you communicated very closely with some aristocrats and even made friends. Amazing communication skills, I praise you.”

“Thank you.”

Adam nodded with a smile. Of course, he did not waste time in vain and established not bad relations with some aristocrats, and most of them he left a good impression… but he had more friends among women.

“Indeed. Your communication skills are enviable, not everyone can openly communicate with important people. I’m curious, were you an important person in the past?” asked Barbara, as if she was not very interested and raised this topic only to support the conversation.

However, Adam was sure. She was trying to probe his past and hoped that he would blurt something out.

If we talk about his identity as the mayor of the city and as the owner of a large company, then it deserves a separate mention, but the role in the Higher World would not play in any case.

Therefore, he answered following the legend he came up with.

“Initially, I was from another small kingdom, where I spent my days in boredom. I was a small businessman and after a long accumulation of money, I sold my business and then decided to travel. That’s how I got to the Holy Empire of Moonlight, where I stopped in the village of Bean, as my funds ran out,” he said, and sighed, shaking his head: “Those were terrible days. Good thing Sir Elrion turned out to be kind enough to give me a job.”

“Hm…”

Barbara snorted and nodded. Indeed, she did not find anything suspicious in his story, and as for detecting a lie… it was difficult. Adam ideally adjusted his emotions so that even he believed in his story for a minute.

“Amazing. Then you really must be a talented person,” nodding, said Barbara, and then with deep emotions in her eyes asked: “I’m interested in subordinates who are capable of trading… I have an organization where various merchants have gathered and I would like to ask you to join them, not for free, of course.”

“Hmmm?”

Adam raised his eyebrow in surprise, it was clear that Barbara was trying to test his skills. In merchant organizations, there was strong competition, mainly competing in introducing business and receiving funding from Barbara and her investors.

However, Adam did not particularly want to enter the field of trade. The truth was that he was not very interested in it, and… he needed to focus on improving himself. There was no time for anything else.

“I’m sorry, but… I doubt I can get along in the field of trade. I’m not very talented in such matters,” Adam humbly said and sighed: “I apologize.”

“He-he…”

It was clear from Barbara’s reaction that she was a little surprised by the refusal, but then she thought and shrugged.

“I won’t insist. You wanted to focus on your development, right?” she asked a rhetorical question and, seeing Adam’s nod, continued: “Then why don’t you work as a guard? If Elrion agrees, I’ll appoint you to his guard. The salary will be impressive, you’ll even be given a two-story house in the east district and a discount on the purchase of various techniques for practitioners.”

“E…”

This offer excited him greatly. But one thing was clear…

“Hm?”

Elrion snorted in surprise when his name was mentioned, and having heard Barbara’s speech, he darkened.

“She’s trying to use leverage? If I refuse, then Adam won’t have a good job and if we were just colleagues, we would have quarreled,” thought Elrion, but then he smiled: “Although, I didn’t want to refuse her offer.”

Looking into Barbara’s eyes, he said:

“I agree.”
