Chapter 118 Addiction

"Rain and Fog!"

"Rain and Fog!"

"Rain and Fog!"

After Gawain recovered his magic power, he cast the "Rain and Fog" in the tower for seven consecutive days, using rain to wash the tower continuously, and asked Lilith and Jenny to lead the twelve halflings to work.

Finally, the Tower of Silence was cleaned up.

The twelve halflings did not leave again, and were taken in by Gawain as servants.

It was considered a stable job.

And the halfling Cole, because of his outstanding performance, carefulness and reliability, was promoted by Gawain to housekeeper, responsible for taking care of the Tower of Silence and managing other halflings.

"Knock, knock, knock~~"

"Come in."

Gawain was meditating in the bedroom on the first floor. There was a knock on the door outside, and then Lilith pushed the door open and sat on the stool angrily after entering.

She puffed her cheeks and said nothing.

"What happened?"

"Sir!"

After hearing Gawain's question, Lilith finally came to her senses. She stood up and walked behind Gawain, gently kneading his shoulders, and said angrily:

"I just arranged the accommodation for the halflings and found something very bad."

"Tell me about it."

"All the halflings are excluding Afia. They are so hateful!"

"Who is Afia?"

"She is a thirteen-year-old halfling girl, only this tall. I secretly inquired and found out that a few months ago, a fishman raped her on the ghost ship. After we rescued her, we found out that she was pregnant. Now she is four months old. She is regarded as a shame by other halflings and... They excluded her and only gave her a little food every day. "

"They are so hateful, Lilith is very angry now!"

Gawain smiled and patted her hand gently:

"You are my follower, and you are qualified to manage anything in the Tower of Silence. Moreover, Lilith is a smart and kind person, I believe you can handle this matter well."

"Go ahead, do it."

"Great, I will give Afia a large room alone!"

Lilith cheered and ran out impatiently. As soon as she went out, she looked back and said, "Sir, thank you for your trust in Lilith."

"Dongdongdong~~"

As soon as Lilith left, the halfling Cole took the initiative to come forward to plead guilty.

Gawain gave a few instructions and sent her away. Then, Jenny in a water blue dress came in again, without saying a word.

She closed the door first and began to tidy up the room.

Cabinet.

Arrangement.

Tables and chairs.

Bed.

Then he leaned down and bit Gawain's ear:

"My Lord, Jenny will come over tonight..."

After Jenny left, Gawain had a headache. He touched the pocket watch in his pocket and muttered, "This is unscientific. [Holy Light]... can actually make people addicted??"

He simply stopped meditating and got up and walked out of the room.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the Tower of Silence had become a little cold since he experienced the [Gray Fog Tide] seven days ago.

That's why he didn't rush to practice underground.

"Good day, Master!"

"Hello, Master."

"Good day, Master, would you like a glass of mushroom wine?"

"Praise the Master!"

Gawain walked in the aisle, and every halfling servant who saw him would bow and salute. He didn't pretend to be cold, but nodded to every halfling.

Although these halflings lost their freedom, they got enough food and clothing in exchange.

They no longer need to worry about tomorrow's food.

No need to starve.

No need to worry about danger.

They could even eat delicious white bread and drink mushroom wine, especially in recent days, thanks to the large number of beasts slaughtered, they ate meat almost every meal.

This was unimaginable before, it felt like living in heaven.

Every day was full of laughter.

Gawain walked around the living area on the first floor and entered the water storage room. The [Magic Perception] that was always turned on did not detect any abnormalities, so he was relieved and returned to his room to continue meditating.

"Dong Dong Dong~~"

"Master, this is the third meal you asked for."

In the evening, the halfling butler Cole personally carried a tray into the room and served Gawain. He was only 1.2 meters tall and wore a black linen shirt, although it was not very decent.

But he tried his best to be clean and tidy.

Gawain didn't like being stared at while eating and drinking. He glanced at Cole, who was a little nervous, and ordered: "You don't have to do these things in the future, just let the maid bring it."

"Okay, master."

After Gawain finished eating, butler Cole cleaned up carefully.

He left the room with a tray.

Lilith came in quickly, chattering and pestering Gawain for a while, and was finally driven out of the room.

As the night deepened, there were no footsteps in the corridor, and the halflings began to fall asleep one by one.

"Squeak~~"

At this time, the door was pushed open again, and Jenny, who had just bathed, walked in. She was wearing a sleeveless dress that reached her ankles, a blue ribbon tied around her waist, and her half-long golden hair was still wet.

Gawain opened his eyes and looked at her.

He closed his eyes again.

Jenny locked the door and walked to the bed by herself. With a slight tug of her slender fingers, the ribbon fell to the ground, and she lay down on the bed, her loose dress outlining a beautiful curve.

She put a finger in her mouth:

"My lord, it's late at night..."

Gawain did not move and continued to meditate. This level of temptation was not enough to shake the high-level wizard apprentice who had learned the powerful [Firm Will].

Jenny did not urge him anymore and waited patiently.

Two hours later.

Gawain finally got up, and Jenny was already lying on the bed and sleeping, breathing evenly. He walked to the bed and reached out to touch her face.

"My Lord."

Jenny woke up as if startled, and only relaxed when she saw that it was Gawain. Just as she was about to continue speaking, her eyes were attracted by Gawain's whirlpool-like eyes and fell into a stagnation.

The two pairs of eyes met, and Gawain finally spoke:

"It's another unforgettable night. All your needs are met. You swear..."

"I swear to be loyal to him and never betray him!"

"Ah~~~~"

Gawain was about to compensate the other party with a [Holy Light], and a scream suddenly came from outside the room.

He frowned and continued to say to Jenny:

"Go to sleep, you are very tired now."

Jenny fell asleep quickly, Gawain canceled [Illusion Gaze], walked out of the room quickly, and saw that there were already many halflings standing on the road, gathering outside a room.

"Master!"

"Master!"

Seeing Gawain appear, the halflings saluted one after another.

Gawain asked: "What happened?"

Butler Cole explained while tidying up his clothes: "Master, this is Afia's room. She just moved in not long ago. The voice seems to be Afia's shouting. Miss Lilith arrived the earliest and is already in the room."

Gawain nodded slightly and hesitated.

He didn't go in again.

After a while, the door opened, and Lilith helped the pregnant halfling Afia out. Afia was only about one meter tall and looked pretty.

She seemed to be frightened, her eyes were flustered, and her walking was a little unstable.
