Chapter 209 - Chapter 209

Ramiel was awake, while Hilas was sleeping heavily beside him, he still have stamina and energy and saw this opportunity to gain a little information on the city's current situation, so he stood carefully and put on some clothes as he ventured out to talk to the Homunculus steward he places to serve Hilas and be her link toward Arcane,

As soon as he kisses Hilas on the forehead, Ramiel walks out of her room and walks toward the mansion corridor to a small private garden yard that Hilas uses for her daily breakfast. While walking, the Homunculus steward greeted him as she was already walking beside him, and as four more followed behind, the Demon Metal Arachne, who was in hiding, showed themselves and acknowledged their master with a simple bow of their heads. As she walks the hall bound to the east side of the mansion to the garden that the Viscountess personally tends,

Ramiel's mind was preoccupied with thoughts of Hilas as he made his way to the garden. The Homunculus steward, aware of his distraction, offered a sympathetic smile and quietly inquired about his well-being. As they approached the garden, Ramiel couldn't help but feel a sense of calm wash over him, knowing that the Viscountess's personal touch could be seen in every blooming flower and meticulously trimmed shrub.

where a variety of vibrant flowers and plants were carefully arranged. Ramiel couldn't help but admire the meticulousness of the Viscountess's gardening skills as he found solace in the tranquil atmosphere of the garden. The gentle rustling of leaves provided a soothing soundtrack to his thoughts.

As he sat down, he asked the Homunculus steward for a report on the city his fiancee was managing. The steward, a loyal and efficient servant, started to verbally mention a detailed report to Her master, outlining the city's thriving state under his fiancee's capable leadership. Ramiel's heart swelled with pride as he read about the various improvements and initiatives she had implemented to benefit the citizens.

He couldn't wait to share this news with her and express his admiration for her dedication and success, but not all reports were good, as Ramiel reads that even with the development of law enforcement, crime was still victimizing many innocent civilians on random occasions, and most crimes were related to social inequalities and poverty.

This revelation saddened Ramiel, knowing that despite his fiancee's efforts, there were still underlying issues that needed to be addressed in order to ensure the safety and well-being of all citizens. He realized that a holistic approach was necessary, one that not only focused on law enforcement but also on tackling the root causes of crime and providing support to those most vulnerable in society.

and many men flock to ask Viscountess Hilas Ugrihron's hand in marriage, many from gaining influential families. These male bachelors wanted to gain a certain amount of power because her name has been circulating as she was prepared to face the outbreak of the Antlion larva and was successful in gaining alliances in both the city of Avarel and now the trudging Seaport city of Mirielis.

Viscountess Hilas Ugrihron's reputation as a courageous and strategic leader has spread far and wide. Her ability to navigate through challenging situations and forge alliances has made her a highly sought-after partner for both personal and political reasons. The anticipation surrounding her next move continues to grow, as many believe she holds the key to securing stability in the region.

And many tried to sway her by showering her with jewellery and lavish items from all over the region, but none was able to gain even a single minute of her attention. As the rest miserably failed and admitted defeat, one man still remained, and Gerrin Killian Cuthbert, the man who he saw visit the Viscountess that early morning,

while sitting on the patio garden chair furniture, he was intently listening as well as casually asking a question, he was more interested to hear bout the men who court her, a hint of jealousy was lingering in her heart and wanted to make sure these men won't do anything foolish while he was away fulfilling a guild task in the west, he wanted to ask Her if she wants to accompany him on his journey when smelling her sweet scent as the wind gently blew toward his direction,

Hilas was wearing a Satin nightgown it was a Sleeveless v-neck thin Short nightdress, exposing her sexy alluring body, her sexy alluring body, which accentuated her curves and made her look irresistibly seductive. The silky fabric glided over her skin, adding a touch of elegance to her overall appearance. Her breasts were making Ramiel stare at them as if it were his first time seeing them under the thin silhouette of the satin appearance. Herit was making his muscles react in a wild manly way, his heart pounding with desire. The way the nightgown clung to Hilas' body emphasized every curve, leaving Ramiel unable to tear his gaze away. He couldn't help but imagine the feel of the smooth satin against his fingertips, fueling his longing for her even more.

As the moon shines on the garden yard, she is always captivating and more seductive; she hugs Ramiel by the neck, kisses him by the cheek, and sits on top of his lap. Hila's position was making Ramiel react, and his manhood was already throbbing with desire. Ramiel raised his hand, signalling to the Homunculus steward and the rest of her team to give them privacy. The Homunculus steward and Hila's team quickly understood Ramiel's signal and discreetly left the garden, giving them the privacy they desired. As they were finally alone, Ramiel couldn't resist pulling Hila closer. Their bodies pressed together in an intoxicating embrace,

As they passionately kissed, Ramiel's hands explored Hila's body, tracing the curves and eliciting soft moans of pleasure. Their desire for each other grew with every touch, igniting a fire that could no longer be remembered Ramiel remembered something as he tried his best to mention it to Hilas, concerning his task, and ask her if she can accord by him,

Sadly, as she changes positions and faces him properly, Ramiel's voice trembles as he confesses, "Hila, I have to leave tomorrow for an assignment to the west region. I was hoping you could accompany me." Hila's eyes widened with surprise, but a smile formed on her lips. She plied, but sadly she declines his invitation, saying that the Empress already asked her and Irles Filri to coordinate with each other as they already need to plan their wedding,

After the planned plot for reclaiming the Crimson throne was perfectly executed, certain other plans needed to be handled in a personal manner, and even if he went to see Irles Filri she would say the same thing.

she is known for her unwavering loyalty, and would undoubtedly reiterate her support to Ramiel, However, there were intricate details and delicate matters that required a face-to-face discussion and personal management to ensure their successful resolution to their task as a governing leader of their respective domain. especially now that they will soon have a higher position to manage not just a city but the entire realm.

Ramiel understood this and knew that the responsibility they held in the ir hands was not that easy to be neglected or discarded, some would use this to blend and make a facade that they were doing these measures to benefit those who were under their care, but they were just using this as an excuse to further spread their power and greed, manipulating the vulnerable for their own gain.

however many new leaders, noble, and governing officers were determined to stay true to their duty and ensure that the well-being of those under their care remained their top priority. They vowed to expose any deceitful intentions and protect the innocent from falling victim to such exploitation.

These leaders recognized the importance of transparency and accountability in their roles, and they implemented strict measures to prevent any form of corruption or manipulation within their ranks. They actively sought feedback from the community and encouraged open dialogue to ensure that the needs and concerns of those under their care were addressed effectively. By upholding these principles, they aimed to restore trust and create a safe environment where everyone could thrive. this was the influence that Ramiel wanted to spread and it was slowly happening

hundreds of thousands of various races rely on Viscountess Hilas Ugrihron leadership being at the very helm and heart of the city and building system this means a team that follows and has the same mindset as her, Ramiel already accomplish this in arcane, creating a system hem was new unheard but was effective because his people decide to embrace it in this mean of survival and gradually found out it was an effective way to truly govern with justice and equality

Ramiel's success in implementing a new and effective system in Arcane demonstrates the power of embracing innovative approaches to governance. By prioritizing justice and equality, Ramiel was able to gain the trust and support of his people, ultimately ensuring their survival and prosperity. As a result, he became a role model for other leaders, inspiring them to prioritize the well-being of their citizens and protect them from exploitation.

.Ignorance of the law excuses nobody, and Ramiel understood this principle well. He made it a priority to educate his citizens about their rights and responsibilities, ensuring that no one could claim ignorance as an excuse for wrongdoing. By promoting a culture of legal literacy, Ramiel empowered his people to actively participate in the governance of Arcane and hold themselves accountable for their actions. This commitment to knowledge and justice solidified Ramiel's legacy as a transformative leader who valued the rule of law.

He felt a surge of warmth and affection. The soft glow of the moon illuminated their embrace, creating a magical moment that would forever be etched in their memories. accepted Hilas request as he kissed her under the moonlight,

But not everybody was happy, as one was upset Gerrin Killian Cuthbert's plot to become Hilas Ugrihron's husband and gain the title of Viscount of Ivlares city, not knowing the huge problem he will be solving, as the Cuthbert was gaining vital information that eludes them since they got back from the beast kingdom of Tridentum.

The Cuthbert family had always been ambitious, and Gerrin saw this as his chance to finally rise to power. However, little did he know that his actions would not only jeopardize his future but also put the entire family at risk. Gerrin Killian Cuthbert's plan involved manipulating and deceiving the influential members of Ivlares City to achieve his desired position. Unbeknownst to him, this scheme would ultimately lead to a series of unforeseen consequences that could potentially jeopardize the stability and harmony of the entire city, while the very person he was asking for help was no longer holding any kind of political power. authority in the Royal capital,

His connection to Maiae Dallmethad was the very influence that gave him the needed push to gain entrance to conduct transactions in the most secluded Beast kingdom in the far east, where trade and communication were heavily regulated. With Maiae's guidance, he was able to navigate the intricate web of bureaucracy and establish crucial connections with influential figures in the Beast Kingdom. However, little did he know that his association with Maiae would soon attract the attention of many rival factions vying for power within the land of Sheol, setting off a chain of events that would test their survival skills to their limits.

Maiae Dallmethad's transformation from her father's destructive path to her twisted desires showcases a stark contrast in motivations. With the antlion larva no longer posing a threat, the focus has shifted towards the sinister intentions of Maiae, who seeks to bring about widespread destruction solely to please her god. This shift in objectives highlights the dangerous consequences of unchecked desires and underscores the importance of understanding one's true motivations.

So unlike his father before who wanted to rule everything by eradicating those he deemed were weak and failed because of a small insignificant variable, Maiae's motivations stem from a desire for chaos and destruction, driven by her twisted devotion to her god. Her relentless pursuit of power and control sets her apart from her father, as she seeks to dismantle everything in her path rather than rule over it.

Maiae's twisted devotion to her god fuels her insatiable hunger for chaos and destruction, pushing her to go to extreme lengths to achieve her goals. Her relentless pursuit of power and control drives her to dismantle not only physical structures but also societal norms and values, leaving a trail of devastation in her wake. the only thing stopping her madness to run wild was a pair of powerful artefacts that was suppressing her mind and keeping her destructive tendencies in check.

These known as the "Chains of Restraint," were said to have been forged by an ancient forge master specifically to contain Maiae's immense power. As long as she possessed them, her chaotic nature was held at bay, but their influence was beginning to wane, and Maiae could feel her madness growing stronger with each passing day.

But seeing her father defeated and badly remaining most of her remaining family members want her to avenge their family Patriarch after losing an arm,
