"..."
Rainer was still digesting this sudden revelation.
"In other words, you were teleported by your father to mankind's border and by chance, I saved you and then you become my maid.
Later you were afraid to tell me about the truth because you didn't know how I would react, did you?"
"Yes..."
Alisha was depressed, she had just told her own story and Rainer had barely reacted.In fact she was still afraid of how he would react.
"...!"
Alisha was surprised to see Rainer approach her.
Showing the confidence she had in Rainer, she remained in place.
*Pluff*
Rainer patted her ears and her tail.
"They are very soft! Alisha, it's fantastic!"
Rainer was very happy, he was able to see a girl with beastly characteristics for the first time in his two life!
Of course, he was only curious about her appearance and there was no feeling of disgust or depravity.
"You fool, you should have told it to me earlier."
Said Rainer as he sat back on the bed.
"But I didn't know..." Alisha was looking for the words to excuse herself.
"No buts... anyway, we all have our secrets so don't take it the wrong way... Maybe someday I'll tell you mine hehehe."
He said, trivializing the importance of the matter.
"Besides, from what you're saying, it's probably that your parents are alive!"
"I lost faith a long time ago..." Said Alisha as she looked down.
She didn't seem to want to talk about it anymore, so Rainer avoided mentioning it again.
"I feel like I've taken a weight off my shoulders, Young Master!"
Alisha seemed liberated after telling her biggest secret to Rainer.
"Now I have to return to my duties."
"Huuuh, it's okay, but bring Lerna in case something happens, I'll stay cultivating so I'll be fine on my own, you' re the one I'm worried about."
Again, Rainer didn't know the value of those words in a lady's heart when she had just opened her heart.
"W-well, I'm leaving now!
Alisha quickly escaped from the bedroom.
"Maybe I've gone too far?"
Said Rainer as a slight smile appeared on his face.
...
Even several days later, Rainer was unable to remove Alisha's true appearance from his mind.
Her shapely face, with a small nose along with a couple of pink cheeks.
Slim eyebrows and large yellow-eyed, snow-white hair that evoked a contradictory feeling of warmness in her appearance.Her pointed ears and her long slender tail along with her thin figure and medium height, made her look like a high class model on Earth.
But it was her warm smile that seemed to purify one' s soul, which would trap anybody in an illusion from which they would never wish to awaken.
...
A week away from the tournament, Rainer managed to stabilize his foundation at the middle stage,with two breaks through so consecutively, he risked to have a weak foundation. That's why he was spending the rest of the time before the tournament turning his Astral Gate into his attribute.
After nearly a month of practice, Rainer was able to assimilate the spatial attribute into the 10% of his Astral Gate, where the spiritual energy was originated.
"Huh, it is slow but step by step I'm getting closer..."
Rainer had great expectations about the Space-time Monarch Method, he wanted to discover what secrets these techniques and their creator held.
...
*Knock Knock*
Someone seemed to be knocking at his door, but he was not surprised, during the past month, all clan members received such a visit at least once.
"Go ahead" Said Rainer in an indifferent voice.
*Crack*
The door opened immediately, right in front of it, an old man accompanied by two guards came into the room.
"Good morning, Rainer," Said Gunm, the Grand Elder of the clan, looking over the room from the entrance as if he were a detective.
"Good morning, Grand Elder" Responded Rainer cordially, although he hated the old man, showing disrespect to him implied harsh punishments that were better not to suffer for obstinacy.
"What is the purpose of this visit, Grand Elder?"
Asked Rainer as if he knew nothing about the turmoil that was formed in the clan after the disappearance of Paisen, the grandson of an elder from the clan.
"I don't think you haven't heard about the incident last month, do you? We can't leave this matter unresolved.
That's the reason why we have to question everyone who could have been involved in his disappearance."
Said Gunm as he looked intently at Rainer, as if he could see through his thoughts.
"What has that to do with me?"
Rainer had already prepared himself for this questioning, so he wouldn't expose himself.
"It is well known that you and Paisen had an antagonistic relationship, as far as I know, he was intimidating you.
Said Gunm, hoping to see how Rainer would get out of this trouble.
After a month of research, they had enough evidence to catalogue Rainer as the main suspect.The question was, how was he able to kill Paisen's group without being wounded and come back that very night?
After all, Rainer was weak to the eyes of the Grand Elder.
"For the sake of this charade, I must pressure Rainer to confess."He thought.
"It's true, Paisen and other guys used to bully me, but so what?I recently heard that after the summoning ritual, Paisen became a target of bullying by the other young Guardians.
"Is that true?"Asked Gunm to his guards.
"From the information gathered so far, yes, Paisen was recently bullied by other Guardians..."
Replied one of the guards after checking some notes.
"You idiots, you are telling it to me now!"
Gunm was boiling with rage, he came to arrest Rainer after being unable to defend himself from his arguments and in the end he got slapped by Rainer.
"Cough Cough, putting that aside, we were informed by the guard at the gate that you left the clan after Paisen..."
The elder had not finished speaking when Rainer interrupted him.
"It's right, but it was several hours later, I was told Paisen was in a carriage and I was walking. It would have been impossible to catch him walking."
Rainer launched a counterattack that left the Grand Elder speechless.
"That's true, but..."
Rainer interrupted the Grand Elder a second time.
"That night I left the clan to have a date with my maid, Alisha, the guards can attest that I returned with her that evening."
Rainer threw his ultimate blow right in the Grand Elder's face.
"..."
"Oh yes, then let's verify the information..."
Without being able to refute Rainer's arguments, the Grand Elder could only retire to attempt a new strategy.
"Farewell, Grand Elder"
Rainer laughed when he saw the figure of the Grand Elder leaving his chamber in a bad mood.
"You looked for your own misery, do you know how many crime shows I have seen in my past life?Sufficient to refute all the arguments of an old fart like you..."
The best lie, after all, is the one made up with part of the truth.
Rainer managed to avoid the suspicions for now, but he knew Gunm wouldn't give up so easily.
"The tournament will be held over the next week, I wonder against whom I will fight..."
Rainer had high expectations regarding the Clan tournament, he knew he would be reborn in the eyes of others after the tournament.
...
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
