Chapter 144 144 - Lilia's Deal



It was simple, he would act in a way that would make Lilia want to leave him alone, that was basically what he was going after.

However, when he saw a big smile on Lilia\'s face, he knew that he had messed up.

He wasn\'t sure why, but that smile scared him a little. He knew that she was about to say something which Aiden wouldn\'t like at all.

"Well, you sure didn\'t seem to mind me getting all close to you earlier," she said, smiling.

She was happy that she had found something to contradict him about.

And her smile grew even bigger when she saw Aiden\'s red face, which was clearly still embarrassed about his earlier actions.

"T-that... I didn\'t do anything, alright" muttered Aiden, who was shy about that whole matter.

He wasn\'t proud to have looked kind of lustfully at her body, he honestly didn\'t know why he had done such a thing.

"Yeah, you didn\'t do anything, huh?" said Lilia, teasing him.

She wanted to make him feel bad so that he would try and get pardoned by her. But, she wasn\'t sure if it was going to work.

Her guess was that it wouldn\'t but she would still try, it\'s not like she was about to lose something by simply trying.

"Maybe I looked at you a little, but that was it. It wasn\'t anything big," said Aiden, who was still completely red.

If one would look at him right now, one would have difficulty differentiating him and a tomato.

"I guess you looking at my body wasn\'t a big deal, huh?" continued Lilia, trying to make him feel as bad as possible.

Aiden was once again flushed when she heard her answer.

Aiden also didn\'t know why but the emotions which he had kept inside of him for the past month or so, were starting to come out a lot more easily.

Because he wasn\'t the type to hold a conversation like that with a stranger at all.

"That wasn\'t what I meant," pleaded Aiden, not knowing what to say.

"Um, sure. Well, don\'t worry it wasn\'t that big of a deal, no need to feel bad for it. However, if you do then... maybe... you could show me your face," she said as she pleaded with her eyes.

She looked like a cute puppy that wanted to have a treat, however, all she wanted to have was a glance at Aiden\'s face.

However, even if Aiden was entertaining the conversation for the moment in no way, did it mean that he would reveal what he looked like.

He wasn\'t stupid, he knew that if Lilia recognized him then she would say to everyone in her family that Aiden was still alive and well.

And such a situation was something that Aiden wanted to escape at all costs because he had promised himself that he would never be going back to the Nightshade Family.

Just thinking about doing such a thing was making Aiden turn into a sour mood, as he just couldn\'t imagine the conversation that he would have with his father.

He knew that it would be a conversation of misery and awkwardness. Aiden wanted to dodge those types of scenarios at all costs.

"Um, I\'m sorry but my face really is off limits, but I could do something else for you," proposed Aiden as there was literally a zero percent chance that he would be showing his face to anyone present here.

Hearing this, Lilia started thinking deeply as she didn\'t answer right away.

\'Maybe I could ask him for a favour? Argh, but that wouldn\'t work, he would refuse,\' she thought, immediately refusing such an idea as it literally no sense.

He wouldn\'t accept a favour if he wouldn\'t show her his face.

\'Oh, maybe I can make a deal with him, actually.\'

She suddenly had a great idea.

There was not an ounce of doubt in her mind that Aiden would accept as it would help win the rest of the tournament.

"Um, actually I know that you said that you didn\'t want anything. But I think I have something which you would appreciate a lot," said Lilia, smiling mysteriously.

Aiden was once again intrigued by the smile that she was showing him.

He didn\'t know what sort of deal she was about to propose to him, but he knew that it wasn\'t going to be a bad one as she seemed somewhat excited about it.

"What is it? I\'m all ears," responded Aiden, clearly showing that he wasn\'t close to negotiations.

However, there was one thing where he wouldn\'t budge, the reveal of his face.

But, if it would concern something else then he wouldn\'t mind hearing what she had to propose to him.

"Did you watch the fight with Lucius inside it?" she asked beforehand, making sure that he would at least be interested in the information which she was about to propose.

Aiden found that question stupid as pretty much around here had watched it and had been shocked.

In fact, Aiden was almost sure that she had seen him look at the fight which was why she was asking him that.

She was basically sure of his answer, however, she was still acting all innocent.

"Yeah, I did see it, why?" responded Aiden, sure that her proposal would have this aspect as a central aspect.

He wasn\'t sure of it, but he knew that there were good chances that it would be the case.

"Well, as you know, I\'m part of the Nightshade Family," said Lilia as she noticed that Aiden had nodded, confirming what she had just said.

"So basically, Lucius, the one who just obliterated your friend here, is quite powerful as you noticed."

Aiden once again nodded confirming what she was saying as he couldn\'t really disagree for the moment as all she was saying were plain facts.

"Yeah and?" said Aiden, wondering where this whole thing was going.

"Well, you saw that last move of his where he moved really fast and defeated your friend," she said talking about the impossible speed that he had reached at the end which had even fooled Aiden.

Aiden quickly nodded as this interested him a lot, he wanted to figure it out, but he didn\'t know how.

"Yeah I saw it, why?" said Aiden as he was getting impatient that Lilia just wouldn\'t say what she wanted to say, always delaying it.

"Well, I thought that maybe you would be interested in having some information about that last move of his, so that... I don\'t know, you can counter it."

Immediately, Aiden was interested as it would give him a small edge over Lucius, well an edge over the information he currently had which was honestly not much.

"And what do you want against that information?" asked Aiden, knowing that everything would cost something in this world.

Nothing would ever be free, especially when it would benefit only one side of the coin.

Lilia seemed pensive, acting as if she didn\'t already know what she wanted.

"Well, what do you say that I give you this information and that you reveal your face to me."

However, when she saw the disapproving look on Aiden\'s face she knew that it was already a lost cause, so quickly added something to her sentence as she really wanted to know who was behind that Reaper mask.

She didn\'t know why but she could feel that it was important for her to find out.

"But you don\'t need to reveal it to me right now, only at the end of the tournament. What do you say?" said Lilia, asking for his opinion.

Aiden fell into his thoughts for a bit, wondering whether or not such a thing was possible to realize.

\'Either way at the end of the tournament, I\'ll need to join the Emberbane family. So she\'ll probably see me or something like that. Also, with the Emberbane family protection, there shouldn\'t be a problem for the Nightshade family to learn about my existence,\' thought Aiden, trying to think that maybe it wouldn\'t change much if she found out about him at the end of the tournament.

Then, he looked back up, right into Lilia\'s eyes, with a serious look on his face.

"That would be possible, however, I will only show you my appearance at the end of the tournament," said Aiden, putting emphasis on the end of his sentence.

Lilia, however, didn\'t seem to mind it at all as she had gotten what she had wanted since the very start of this conversation and it wasn\'t like she would have to wait for a long time before seeing it.

"So, are you going to tell me about that move Lucius did at the end or not?" asked Aiden, who was impatient to learn something new.
