NTR: I became a noble?

She stepped back from the body, as she was interested to move closer to the sofa to have a place to sit on and rest for a while.

...

After an hour of break, both of them left by themselves.

Terias had an idea that the trade event must have already been completed. The number of VIPs were not in a large number, as long as they appraised each other's item, it would only take few moments for the exchange offer and further negotiations.

He wanted to wait for the others in the VIP room but the room smelled of sex and it did not feel appropriate for his image to stay in the dirty room.

Tasha had already left with the body, she dragged the body outside without uttering a word.

...

It seemed to him as if the lady was very professional and did not mix the moment of fun with the normal life.

' So embarrassing, what do i say to him?? I laid down on the table recklessly as i was very tired.' Tasha glanced at Terias who did not seem bothered in the least.

It felt very embarrassing for her to be seen in such a way by an attendant.

She believed that it was very non lady like for her to be seen in that state. In the moment of anger she had made a move on the attendant. She had to dispose of the body now.

She dragged the attendant's body by herself, with her already tired body. She wanted to act coy and ask the Viscount for help in moving the body but the Viscount did not even glance at her.

It was not really difficult for the lady to drag the body out, she did so as the shameless guy in front of her had not a drop of chivalry inside him.

The young guys who swarmed her would have already done the chore for her, not even troubling her for a second.

...

'The technique has finally shown signs of improvement, still it seems difficult to live past the next decade.' Terias sighed, the world was showing him glimpses of hope and then showed that it was out of his reach.

Going by his calculations, it proved that he would eventually gain the lifespan but by that time he would probably run out of his remaining Ki energy which would make his position as a Viscount waver and very surely, useless.

...

'what is the point if i really become a man with a long enough lifespan but powerless to live the life.' Terias sighed again in dilemma.

'Let's hope Earl Scheta has some solution for my problem' He could only think of asking a favor from the earl.

For the moment, he was guided out with the help of an attendant he found outside the room.

He stayed in the establishment that was just above the underground auction house. The scenery was good, it was fresh to finally breathe the air above the underground.

...

In a matter of few minutes, both Robert and Hexter arrived at his table in the establishment. They shared a cup of tea together as the refreshment as they had success in the trade event.

They successfully managed to trade a good amount of stuff they needed.

They left satisfied from the event, the same went for Terias as he too gained a great amount of pleasure and experience from the time together with Tasha.

He did not forget to mention that to Robert, to which the shrewd noble replied in a benevolent smile.

Robert really did not want to speak about this topic, he had left his butler with a job to check up on the room and try to notice any irregularities. In exact words " Keep an eye on his physical strength"

He wanted one of his men to accurately gauge his strength from the Viscount's performance in bed. It was just on a whim, nothing really important but the idiotic guy had to sneak a peek and get caught by the people in act.

...

Robert was slightly curious about the rumors of Viscount's decreasing strength since their alliance. He also sent a guy from a trusted group to attack and gauge the strength of the lord and butler duo which did not have any result.

'The guy must have ran away with money, knowing that an assassination on the noble would not be investigated anyways.' Robert came to a possible conclusion

Sadly for the ruffian guy's soul, he was buried under the woods and was even wrongly blamed for running away with the money, which he never attempted.

...

All three of them travelled back together in the same horse carriage, back to the Earl's mansion.

The time it took to go back passed uneventfully, they were having small talks involving the content of trade.

"Let's meet at the arrival of dawn for breakfast" Robert positively said with a smile

"Sure, let's meet for the breakfast" Hexter showed his enthusiasm at the mention of food.

"let's do that" Terias also agreed, they were supposed to eat together with the earl most probably.

...

As Terias left together with Robert and Hexter, he was moving around very slowly. He toured around wanting to have another encounter with someone from Earl's family.

That would be the only possibility to have a talk with the Earl naturally and further inquire about the resource for his survival.

'I do not plan to outright reveal my needs as that would lower my position in the negotiation.' he planned to ask about a broad range of subject and then he would show slight interest in a topic related to lifespan.

This move would make the other party aware of his interests, which would give them the time to prepare for the relevant resource prior to their unscheduled meeting.

Unfortunate for Terias, he did not have any luck at the moment, probably exhausted by his encounter with Tasha.

He went back to his room, planning to practice breathing technique and compensate for the two times of -10 ki from earlier.

...

The amount that was decreased from his KI pool finally felt substantial enough that he could make an assumption.

He believed twenty points of ki to be one to two percent of his total amount. He was still not able to make an appropriate measurement because of his lack in experience with KI.

He believed that a technique like sense would probably help him to hasten the process, which he would start to use whenever he had time, though not now when he stayed in the Earl's house.
