The scammed adventurer's from the dungeon Fei, Keith, and Fanny were rescued from were now in Jingmei Guild.

Jingmei Guild was one of the world's rising powerhouse and they seemed to be stopping anytime soon.

Whatever missions were being handed out by the administrations of the world, these guys were quick to grab them and finish them.

It didn't matter if the mission was given by the administration of the Neutral Continent, the Vampire Continent, or any other place.

There were some ongoing rumours about this dark horse hopping up the ranks. The most prominent one was that this guild had a big, strong backer.

"They actually don't know shit about managing or maintaining a guild, it's the backer due to whom they were succeeding so far." Such were the comments everywhere.

No matter where one went, jealousy and envy is something that would never not take place.

Jingmei Guild was doing good so far and Lith was satisfied with the investments he had made on them. They would be a good piece for the future plans he possessed.

Next on the list was Yuwen, the guy who was working as a merchant. He had established a connection with the World Merchant Association's president and was also secretly dating his daughter.

This was a major development and with how things were going, it won't be too long before he inherits the entire organization.

After Yuwen there was Ilyas whom Lith had found in the Elven Continent. That guy was laying low and preparing for a big strike. For now, things were still developing and that was about it on his side.

Unlike the inactive Ilyas though, there had been news of multiple assassinations happening all around the world. Important powerhouses were being killed and who was doing it was not known.

People were guessing it could be their enemies but experts refused to believe that. Experts stated that if assassinations hadn't happened in so many years of conflict, it was highly unlikely to happen now.

However, some were arguing that it may as well be a chain reaction, meaning one person's revenge might've tempted others to walk down this path as well and initiate their slumbering plans.

There was too much debate on this, but Lith was happy that things were going great. The more chaos, the better.

Global affairs aside, back in the Vampire Continent, someone was really pissed.

They were angry to the point of plucking their own hair and smashing everything they could within their punching range.

This angry person was none other than Duchess Rivera, the explorer noble who believed in expansion and wars more than administration.

She still was angry about the banquet where she was groped by an old man, that being none other than Luna in a disguise.

Luna had ensured to add fuel to the fire and Duchess Rivera was now prepared for an all out assault against the old fart that had groped her. She didn't know who it was so she had been taking her anger out on wild beasts during her expansions.

Seventy-five percent of the Vampire Continent was yet to be explored and was filled with trillions of wild species. Everyday, due to the Duchess's anger, many species were going extinct and this had to be stopped otherwise the biodiversity would be gone.

Lith had a good chuckle about this situation, but on a serious note, something had to be done.

Since the Duchess liked women and fights, Lith had a person in mind who could keep her entertained for a while.

Sitting in his study, Lith leaned back on his chair and said, "Call Fei."

To whom Lith had addressed that was unknown, but in the next few seconds, the door of the study opened up and there appeared a short, blonde-haired butler.

The butler possessed a feminine look and petite body and who else could it be but Lith's cute tomboy girl Fei?

Smiling while looking at her up and down, Lith commented, "My butler, you seem a bit feminine and girly these days. Have you been eating your protein properly?"

Fei, knitting her brows, snorted and said, "Master, stop teasing me the moment you see me."

Lith chuckled and opened his arms, gesturing to Fei to come to him.

Fei did so without questions and Lith placed her on his lap, then hugged her.

The sweet flowery fragrance from Fei hit Lith's nose and the warmth from her soft body made him kiss her head.

"How have you been?" Lith didn't tease anymore and asked a genuine question.

Fei's cheeks turned rosy upon being given such affection, but trying to not blush hard, she said, "Master left so quickly after that day"

Some grievances could be felt from her tone and Lith knew why such was the case.

It didn't matter if Fei wore clothes like a man, at the end of the day, she was a young maiden. Having spent such an intimate time together and then him leaving was bound to cause some sadness.

This young lady had only just had her first experience of what love was and with Lith leaving so soon, she was bound to be dejected.

Lith knew all of this and he didn't really plan to make her sad. The situation made him leave home, but whatever the case be, he was here now and things were still fixable.

Kissing Fei's lips softly and hugging her tight, Lith said, "I had to, there was no choice. But now I'm here, aren't I?"

"Mhm" Fei didn't speak further and just snuggled together with Lith.

The two stayed like that for a bit and when Lith felt it was time for business, he caressed her hair and asked, "I've been wondering, why are you still in a butler outfit?"

The question made Fei knit her brows again. She pulled herself back from Lith's embrace and staring at him, said, "Weren't you the one who forced me to wear this?"

Lith shrugged. "I never said you have to permanently wear that. You could've taken it off right after we were done with Vanessa's business."

"Haaaah!?" Fei got up in shock and exclaimed. "I could've not worn this the whole time!?"

Lith smirked and holding her hand, pulled her back in his embrace.

"You could've, but you didn't want to. Doesn't this mean you've accepted the fact that you're a boy? Tch. Tch. I don't like boys, Fei. Master ain't no gay man." Lith shook his head in disappointment.

Although he said that, his hand was sneaking inside Fei's shirt, trying to get hold of her little rabbits.

Fei knitted her brows further in annoyance and held onto Lith's evil hand. "Not this time, Master. I'm not falling for these things."

Lith stopped doing what he was doing and simply nodded in understanding.

"I understand. You've finally realized that you were a boy this whole time and now don't like your chest being touched. Completely valid, no problem at all."

Fei was stupefied, but instantly annoyed once again by her Master's comment.

She got off Lith's lap and slamming the table, said in a firm tone, "I am not a boy!"
