Death… And Me

Chapter 398 - No Child!

Meanwhile, Droman was trying to wrap his head around the situation in front of him. Well, both Rean and Qia were having the same problem. Just a moment ago, Qia was convincing her Master that she would resolve the misunderstanding about her relation with Rean. How come it turned into a demand for marriage all of a sudden?

Rean had indeed said all of that. But in the end, he was just trying to get back at Qia for the boyfriend thing. Still, by looking at the surprised expression on Qiaʼs face, it was evident that she was also oblivious to this situation.

Droman then tried to calm down before saying.

”Ahem... Fellow... Errr... How should I call you?”

”You can call me Tulia.”

Droman nodded.

”Lady Tulia, can you explain what is happening here?”

Tulia nodded before talking about everything that happened in the Tea Shop. Droman, of course, was taken aback when he heard that as he looked at Rean.

”Did you really do it with that girl? Wait, when did you have time for that?”

It was then that he remembered the night Rean asked to go out.

”Ah! You told me that you were going back to cultivate with your brother. I found it strange since it wouldnʼt be wise to waste the repositoryʼs time with it. Still, you were quite adamant, saying that you didnʼt want to slack in any field. So thatʼs whatʼs happening. You went out to see this girl! Not only that but you also... also... put your seed in her!”

Rean almost vomited blood!

ʼSeed? What seed? My seed hasnʼt been used yet, okay?! Even in my entire previous life, my seed stayed as unused as it is today!ʼ

[Hahahaha! Why donʼt you just go with the flow? Itʼs not like having a princess of the Empire as a wife would be a bad thing. If Calina succeeds in conquering Roan, both brothers would be part of the Royal Family! Isnʼt that perfect?]

It was then that Tulia narrowed her eyes.

”Qia, now that I think about it, you also decided to go back to the Palace earlier than normal. So that was the day when you lost your hymen, huh?”

Qia wanted to shout.

ʼMy hymen is still here! If I could, I would even show it to you all!ʼ

Of course, she couldnʼt do such a thing with so many people watching. Sure enough, Droman and Tuliaʼs group werenʼt the only ones present in the repository. With the next exam so close, it was obviously packed with Formations Masters.

”Unbelievable... That boy dared to put his hand on a princess of the Empire.”

”Canʼt you see? Heʼs the direct disciple of the guy who invented the Communication Formation. The Imperial Family would love such a marriage.”

”Indeed. Otherwise, do you think Tulia would come here and demand marriage?”

”I know, right? Considering the Imperial Familyʼs strictness, she would have cut that boyʼs head once he went out. Considering that she is asking for his hand in marriage, it means they have a lot to gain.”

”So, it wonʼt be long before one more princess is married off. Well, itʼs quite a common thing in the Imperial Family, so I can quite understand.”

Rean and Qia felt like they were falling deeper and deeper into the abyss. Even the people around them were already considering them as a married couple.

”Ahem... Senior Tulia. Qia and I were just joking when we said that in the tea shop. Right, Qia?”

Qia immediately came back to herself and nodded vigorously.

”Yes, yes! First of all, we had never met outside before. Sure, I left earlier that day, but I was simply tired.”

The fact was that Qia indeed asked for an early leave from her Master on the same day Rean left to capture Tissan. Itʼs just that instead of going back to the Palace, she went to one of the tea shops she liked the most in the Core Region.

Droman was taken aback as he looked at Rean and Qia suspiciously.

”You two seem quite synced with your words. Rean, can you prove that you were really just cultivating that day? Oh! We can ask your brother!”

Rean almost fainted. If Roan really heard about what was happening to him, he would DEFINITELY say that he didnʼt see Rean at all. Why? Because Rean would have done the same thing to him, obviously. Nothing entertained the twins more than pulling each othersʼ legs in the worst moments!

”This... I think my brother is not at home at the moment.”

Droman was more and more sure that Rean had really done it.

”Since thatʼs the case, let me confirm it with young lady Qia. After all, Princess Qia is known by everyone. Sure, the palace guards or other people can confirm that she was somewhere else that night, right? Right?!”

Rean then looked at Qia as if he was pledging to her.

However, Qiaʼs face went red before suddenly turning purple.

”I...”

Qia was a princess of the Empire. Not only that, but she was also the granddaughter of the fifth prince, so everyone recognized her. Because of that, she often disguised herself when she wanted to leave alone. Almost no one knew about it either, including her Master. Unfortunately, that also killed her alibi. After all, no one would remember to have seen her during that time.

Tulia only wanted to force this marriage to get a good relationship with the Dalamu Sect, especially Droman. She was sure that the Fifth Prince would love to know that his granddaughter got such a good deal. However, she still believed that Qia hasnʼt done anything with Rean... or so she thought. However, after seeing Qiaʼs face when she was asked that question, she began to think that perhaps Qia and Rean had really gone that far.

”Ahem... Do you know anyone who can prove that you werenʼt with Rean that night?”

Qia suddenly went silent, much for Reanʼs despair!

Seeing that scene, both Droman and Tulia looked at each other with awkward expressions.

”It seems like their joke wasnʼt really a joke. Do you agree with me?”

Droman nodded.

”I do. Itʼs way too suspicious that the two of them just so happened to disappear at the same time.”

Rean then gritted his teeth and shouted what Qia couldnʼt do.

”There is a way to prove that we didnʼt have anything. Just bring two representatives of each side and check her hymen! She should still be a virgin!”

Qia felt like breaking Reanʼs neck for shouting such embarrassing words in front of everyone. It was one thing for her Master to touch that topic since she was a woman, but it looked much worse when Rean did that. However, she had to admit that their only escaping route now was to prove that she was still a virgin.

Rean told her that he could even restore a womanʼs hymen if he wanted to. However, there will be no need for him to use that as a threat anymore since they didnʼt want to go ahead with this marriage thing. In the end, they could prove that nothing happened. However...

*Pah!*

Droman suddenly slapped the back of Reanʼs head.

”How could you ask such a thing from a princess of the Empire? Are you looking to die? First of all, donʼt forget that I know your healing abilities very well. Even a recently torn hymen wouldnʼt be anything hard for you to fix.”

Rean was already crying.

ʼWhy do you have to open your mouth at this point? Couldnʼt you just stay quiet?ʼ

Those words initiated another uproar, though.

”What?! He can repair a womanʼs hymen?!”

”Holy shit! Just wait until a few certain people hear that.”

”That boy will make a fortune!”

Rean wanted nothing more than to break those peopleʼs heads. Who would work as a hymen restorer? He didnʼt need that type of money at all! No, first of all, he didnʼt even want it in the first place!

Tulia nodded, satisfied.

”Rean and Qia seem quite unwilling to go ahead with it. However, they should have thought about it before doing the deed. Now itʼs too late. Iʼll go ahead and talk with Qiaʼs parents. Droman, do you have any objections?”

Droman immediately shook his head. Are you kidding? Even if that was a rumor, that was the Imperial Family they were talking about. Besides, deep inside, he was jumping in happiness. His discipleʼs marriage with the Imperial Family would bring a ton of benefits to him and the Dalamu Sect. Why would he do such a thing as refusing that?

”None. Rean, a man should bear the consequences. Now that you have done it, you have to take it to the end.”

”But we really didnʼt do anything!”

Qia agreed with Rean.

”Yes! Itʼs all a misunderstanding!”

Tulia narrowed her eyes.

”You still dare to deny? Who the hell would kiss each other in front of everyone, say that one is her boyfriend while the other is his woman, just to go back on their words later? Are you taking Droman and me for fools?”

Droman nodded.

”Enough with it already. Lady Tulia, Iʼll bother you to prepare the arrangements.”

Tulia smiled.

”No problem. I hope Sir Droman will also do the same on your side.”

It was then that an idea popped into Reanʼs mind.

”Wait!”

Tulia and Droman narrowed their eyes as they looked at him.

”What now?”

Rean ignored it and then explained.

”Ahem... The Formation Master Guild exam is just around the corner. Both me and Qia canʼt think about marriage at the moment. Letʼs at least wait until it is over.”

Qiaʼs eyes lit up after hearing that.

”Right, Master! I also want to focus on the exam so that I can get a slot. Rean and I only denied our relationship because we wanted to focus. After the exam is over, we can take our time to talk about it.”

”This...”

Droman and Tulia had to admit that their words made sense.

”What do you think, Droman?”

Droman pondered a bit before nodding.

”I think itʼs a good idea. In any case, those two had finally confirmed that they are in a relationship. I can also understand why they wanted to hide it. After all, Iʼm pretty confident in Reanʼs ability to pass the exam. We should indeed not put more burden on them before the exam is over.”

Tulia sighed but agreed with the idea. After all, she also put a lot of effort into Qia so she could pass the exam.

”Very well. Then, Iʼll see you again after the exam, Sir Droman.”

Droman agreed with Tulia.

”Iʼm looking forward to it. Make sure to treat lady Qia well since she might be carrying Reanʼs child.”

Qia and Rean almost fainted from those words. When will they understand that thereʼs no child!!!
