It's been five days since Azrael entered and stayed at Rose estate. The Rose family did their best to accommodate him. They tried to offer him treasures but he was not interested with those, thus he returned them, Maxwell and the others couldn't do anything but accepted the returned treasure awkwardly.
They invited him multiple times to their dinner. And currently they are eating their bountiful dinner. Surprisingly, Elmy, who was not present during his first dinner with the Rose family, came and joined them.
From time to time she would look at Azrael with mysterious glint and interest. Azrael paid her back with a provocative smile which banished instantly, still it didn't escape from the eyes of Elmy.
"To think that my niece's savior would be this outstanding man." Elmy said.
Her brother, niece, sister-in-law and father looked at her with mouth agape. Dillon even dropped his glass full of wine.
Who wouldn't be shocked at her statement? Elmy who was not interested in opposite sex suddenly praised a young man.
Dillon was shook to the core and looked at Azrael with aggressive eyes.
"How could you seduce my daughter!?" He angrily asked.
Azrael neither rebutted nor looked at the aggressive Dillon. His eyes solely fixed at Elmy.
Lian, who was witnessing this, felt something uncomfortable inside her chest. A feeling she couldn't describe.
"Calm down father, he is just really dazzling."
Elmy's statement further deepened the uncomfortable feeling within Lian's heart. While Dillon almost lost all of his strength.
Midnight.
Azrael is currently in his cultivation session trying to breakthrough to the Blood Refining realm. During these days he was able to achieve peak Muscle Tempering realm. It is really an easy task for him to breakthrough and consolidate his foundation given that he has multiple methods, vast knowledge and experience. Although the more he thread with his cultivation system the more it would take time to fully consolidate his foundation.
**Thud**
A sound of the locked door opening caught his attention. He opened his closed eyes, he looked at the door of his room waiting for someone.
**Step** **Step**
The sound of footsteps echoed within his quarters. The more he waited the more the footsteps rang clearer. It was safe to assume that the owner of these footsteps was walking towards his room.
The footsteps stopped, then the closed door of his room slowly opened up as if teasing him in anticipation.
Then a figure entered his room.
His lips curved upward as he looked at the figure.
It is a figure of a woman full of sex appeal that will make men drool. She has this cool and calm aura that one made one feel distant.
"Took long enough to visit me, Elmy." Azrael smiled provocatively.
That's right this woman is none other than Lian's aunt and Maxwell's sister, Elmy Rose.
"I should be the one saying that, humph." Elmy humphed.
"How could I visit you? Isn't that going to ruin your play, right Elmy? Or should I say Bianca?"
Elmy, Bianca rather is one of Azrael's wives from the Dream world that have reincarnated in the real world. She was born 28 years ago as the young miss of the Rose family. Here, she spent her days 'playing' her part as a member of the Rose family. Like Azrael said he didn't visit Bianca because he didn't want to ruin her 'play'.
*****
Bianca, a powerful Saint, has a quite strong love towards theatrical play. She would often go to the Mortal Realm just to watch theatrical plays. There were even times where she would disguise a different persona and role play in real life. This is also the reason why she has many aliases, some from the Dream World's Mortal Realm and some were even became famous in the Dream World's Divine Realm. Of course, she has a bottom line such as acting like someone's wife she didn't love.
"Azrael! You bastard deserves to die!", A shout that caught Bianca's attention while she was flying in the sky.
She looked for the source and was amused by what she saw.
A lone man facing an army of cultivators without even flinching, his eyes were fierce, looking at the cultivators that wanted to take his life. One could see the determination within those eyes.
She stopped for a moment and watched the show. She really loves this kind of event, it makes her heart throbbed with excitement. The cultivators below had no idea that there's a powerful being watching them for amusement right now.
She thought that the young man would die tragically, alas she was in for disappointment and surprise. The one man clashed with the army of cultivators. He fought a bloody war alone, he slashed his swords, he cut ten heads; he slashed again, cut one hundred heads! The more he slashed the more fierce and terrifying he became.
He received multiple wounds, some were minor, some were grave but he persisted! Instead of backing out, he advances like a true crazy warrior.
He kept fighting until he stood alone on the mountains of corpses. His domineering presence on the top of mountains of corpses kept on shining in the eyes of Bianca.
Bianca's eyes beam with great excitement. Yes this is what she wanted, this thrill and excitement that was brought by this man was what she needed.
Her heart throbbed with excitement that could never be matched by the plays she had watched in the past.
She started to follow him from that day on, and he kept surprising her until the excitement within her heart became longing and the longing became love. Azrael never noticed something strange that time because Bianca was already a Saint so there's a great gap between their strength.
But she didn't know how to approach Azrael because that was the first time she fell in love. Then suddenly she remembered one of the plays she had watched where there's an old man giving his inheritance to the protagonist.
She used that as a template to approach Azrael.
She appeared as an 'old man' in front of Azrael.
"Young man, be thankful because this old man has taken a liking to your talent!" An hoarse and ancient voice came out from the mouth of the 'old man'.
"Who are you?"Azrael doubted the 'old man' in front of him. Thus, marking Bianca's first attempt as failure.
But she never knew how to give up. She kept on watching him from the shadows waiting for the next opportunity.
And an opportunity did present itself.
When Azrael ascended to 'Divine Realm' as Ascension Rank 3 cultivator he met a powerful cultivator, a half-step saint. And the half-step saint cultivator sensed a treasure on him thus, tried to kill him and robbed him.
And the 'old man' appeared to save him.
Azrael chose to believe the 'old man' temporarily. And that time he even suspected that the old man from the real world was the same person as the 'old man'.
Being accepted, Bianca who was in disguise taught him about different kinds of illusions, even illusions that kill figuratively and literally. Azrael proved his talent to her and then she even taught him 'music' after illusion.
During their time she accompanied him 'legally' she was really happy as if she was on cloud nine, but she knew she couldn't accompany him 'legally' all the time if she wanted not to raise suspicion from Azrael, that's why she 'left' and hid in the shadows.
When Azrael met with different beauties at first, she wanted the girls to be ripped apart. She was jealous to the bone but after considering that they are important to Azrael she let them go and she learned to accept Azrael's fate to have harem.
She waited for another opportunity to show again but to her disappointment, Azrael's strength kept rising not just cultivation wise but battle power wise. When he was in the Divine Human realm he was able to kill a half-step Saint.
This time even Bianca was shocked seeing this freak.
When Azrael broke through in Divine Sky Realm, he instantly sensed someone was watching him.
Bianca has no choice but to appear.
Seeing this 'old man' appearing, Azrael's eyes widened with shock and later on frowned looking at this 'old man'.
Why are you concealing your true appearance?" He asked.
Bianca looked at him incredibly. She was a saint and in the way of transforming her comprehension into a great dao. Yet a Divine Sky Cultivator is able to sense her disguise. He is a freak!
She had no choice but to reveal the truth.
The 'old man' changed into a world toppling beauty. Her beauty almost suffocates him. He was captivated by her presence. For a good moment he was stunned to speak. Unfortunately, Bianca was preoccupied by her guilt to enjoy Azrael's once in a lifetime great reaction.
After calming down his heart, Azrael spoke, "Why did you disguise yourself in front of me?"
Bianca looked at him while blushing, "B-because I was in love with you!"
"Huh? You are in love with me, that's why you disguise yourself?"
"Y-yes, and I did that because this is the first time I have been in love and I don't know how to approach you." Then she proceeded to talk about why she fell in love with Azrael and the root of her idea of disguising an old man.
Azrael didn't know whether to laugh or cry. But he still smiled handsomely and said, "For now stop hiding in the shadows, you can follow me openly."
"Y-yes!" Bianca delightfully said.
