Chapter 257: Another One?! How Many Women Does He Have?!

"Halt." The guards stopped Theia and Sunrath. Because bringing a giant beast inside the main territory was not allowed.

Theia from the above ordered Sunrath to stopped and waited for Luke. After all, he had already told them to wait for him here.

Seeing this, both Bronze Knight guards exchanged confused glances, because normally at this time.

Beings of this level often complained, while also showing clear dissatisfaction.

Since this had already happened during these 20 days.

While they were waiting, the surrounding passersby, from adventurers to merchants and citizens, also stopped to watch the show.

Considering the earlier incident, they wanted to see what would happen this time.

Still, many were discussing who this beautiful woman and her pet was. After all, present among the crowd were some knowledgeable people, who knew the names of almost every surrounding B rank beings.

"Lord is here!" Suddenly these words echoed throughout the area, which resulted in everyone’s faces turning toward the other side.

There, the commander of the Templar Knights was walking alongside a handsome man, 7 feet tall.

Which made them confused.

"Where is the lord?"

But when they focused on the man again, they came to sudden realization that this handsome man, with shoulder-length black hair and a perfect build, was their lord.

The Baron Luke.

Which maked them completely shocked.

"Lord has changed so much, and he has become even more handsome." Few young maidens, no matter from which group, utter those words from their mouths.

"Greetings, My Lord." The moment he reached the main gate, the two guards immediately saluted him.

"Meow~" And Sunrath also meowed, while moving close to Luke.

Seeing this scene, everyone became speechless.

Because for the first time, they had seen a gigantic Lion beast meowing in front of someone.

Even the Templar commander raised his brow at this.

’This Lion seems special.’ He became even more surprised after finding this discovery.

But when he tried to analyze Theia, he became confused.

’Why does she feel like a mortal? who doesn’t have any mana or Aether in them?’ And this thought came into his mind.

Though Theia didn’t notice his confused face, but instead she dismounted Sunrath and moved close to Luke.

"Master." She bowed, while saying.

"No! the womanizer got another beautiful woman!" But at that exact moment, someone from the crowd shouted with lost voice.

Upon that, Luke’s mouth twitched with absurdity.

Because this Womanizer tag now always seemed to keep rotating around him.

"Ahem!" Luke coughed to remove the awkwardness, before nodding at everyone.

’Let’s leave this place, before a few more women somehow get added to my womanizer list.’ he thought, while observing the thristy gaze of few young maidens.

Sadly, he thought this very early. Because the very next moment, a high-pitched sound came.

"Master!!!"

Followed by a cannonball that aimed directly at Luke.

Of course, thats what other people saw, and sadly Luke included among them as well.

After all, he was not in his titan form. So currently his senses only belongs to Talented Silver knight.

But Solan completely saw, who this cannonball was.

’Aurora.’

And the next moment, the cannonball—cough!—Aurora hugged Luke tightly.

"Master, I miss you so much!" She started rubbing Luke’s face against her huge melons, clearly not minding the jealous glares of the surrounding bachelors.

"So lucky."

"Those melons, haven’t they become even bigger?"

Different kinds of words escaped from the crowd mouths, but Luke didn’t have the leisure to hear them.

’Ughh! Can’t breathe!’ Luke cursed Aurora’s big melons and her tight hug.

Because it seemed he was about to die from suffocation.

So when he was about to be hugged to death by those merciless melon, a savior’s sweet voice came.

"Aurora, let Luke breathe."

Aurielle said with a normal face, like she was not surprised by Luke’s sudden appearance.

"Huff...Huff..." The moment Aurora released Luke, he exhaled air, like a dying person finally getting the freedom to breathe.

"Aurielle, my darling." Then he gave a death glare to the already timid Aurora, before moving toward the calm-faced Aurielle.

He hugged her slightly, before releasing it next moment.

After all, they were in public and he didn’t want to create more of the show for the crowd to watch, which was already created because of Aurora.

But again, he was stopped by another greeting.

"Greetings, Hero Luke."

The managers of the Blacksmith, Adventurer, Merchant, and even the old man of the Alchemist came outside this time and greeted him.

Seeing Jasper and an old man beside him, clearly his grandpa, who had earlier protected his territory from the B rank being,

he smiled and returned the greeting.

"Greetings, Sir and Madam."

"And also thanks for earlier, while I was in the middle of cultivation." He expressed his thanks, bringing a few awed glances from the spectators.

After all, who didn’t want to make connections with these guilds?

Yet despite waiting for years, they ended up without any chance to meet.

Once all the greetings were done, Luke and his company moved toward the mansion’s guest area.

Where he had to properly thank them and also talk about a few things.

Unfortunately, Solan had to go.

"Sorry, Hero Luke." He gave an apologetic smile to Luke, before telling.

"We have already stayed here for too long, and now we have to return back to the demon border."

Seeing nothing could be done, Luke gave him a grateful smile and thanked him for his earlier help.

"All of this happened because the Saintess ordered it."

"So you should thank her."

"I will." Luke nodded.

With that, Solan and his legion of Templar Knights left the Blackstone Highlands territory.

"Sigh." Seeing this, Luke sighed exhaustedly.

After all, Solan was still an A rank being. And not a normal one, but he seemed even more special than Magnus, who was also an peak A rank being.

So talking with this high-rank being was taxing for his mind.

He didn’t know if it was because they were high rank, which resulted in releasing some of their pressure unconsciously, or something else.

From the side, except Raya Tempestas, the others also looked toward the departing Templar Knights with reverence.

Because even they rarely saw a single A-rank being, but here a full legion was here.

"Let’s talk inside." Luke said to all of them, including the Alchemist Association manager.

Who seemed more behaved than his usual style.

Why wouldn’t he be?

Because the Saintess seemed to personally be interested in this hero, so this meant Luke’s value had also become high.

That was why, just after Solan and his legion entered the territory, he got a command from the main guild.

To increase the investment value and recruit Luke.

The same thing happened with the other managers as well.

But only Jasper had already succeeded in this, for which he even got praise from the main guild and other benefits.
