Chapter 374: Chapter 311, Tamed Beast
“How are things on your end?” Wu Heng continued to ask.
“What ‘things’?”
“Any injuries, how many people did you take with you?” Wu Heng directly asked, always feeling that this person was somewhat unreliable.
Philippa lowered her voice, saying, “No injuries. There are six pirates who came with me, and you have five skeletons left. We’re a bit short-handed, so I’ll recruit some more crew later.”
It seemed to go quite smoothly.
Listening to the tone, it was clear there hadn’t been any significant losses.
“Be careful with everything, and remember to pass any intelligence to me. I’ve arranged for a skeleton to take notes here and will reply to you in due time.”
“Okay, but when can I go back?” Philippa asked.
“Wait until the pirate affair is over, and I’ll arrange your return.”
“Got it!” Philippa agreed, then continued, “How’s my mother?”
“Don’t worry, I’ve taken her out, and for now, she’s been accommodated in the association’s dormitory.”
“Oh, are you going to ‘do’ her?”
Usually, Wu Heng would speak frankly with the women around him, but faced with ‘Philippa’s’ question, he still felt a bit offended.
He said in a serious tone, “Speak to me properly and don’t use your pirate lingo.”
“Tch! Alright, got it!”
Ending the chat, Wu Heng had the skeletons continue to watch over the radio.
He then went back upstairs to rest.
…
He slept until 4 o’clock upstairs.
Andre Willow returned from the association, and Mini brought ‘Shanaela’ over for a meal.
After dinner.
They sat in the living room and chatted.
Shanaela smiled the whole time, but kept glancing at Wu Heng, her eyes filled with tenderness.
Even Mini and Andre Willow noticed the difference in her eyes and teased her about it.
This made ‘Shanaela’ blush all evening.
After chatting for a while.
Mini whispered, “Master, Sister Shanaela asked me to stay at her place tonight, is that okay?”
Wu Heng looked at ‘Shanaela’ and said, “Is that really okay?”
“It’s fine. I don’t have many friends, and I get bored on my own. I’d be happy if Mini could keep me company,” Shanaela said with a smile.
Seeing that both of them agreed, Wu Heng naturally had no objections and said, “Just be careful when staying over. If you break anything at her place, we can’t afford to compensate for it.”
“What nonsense are you talking about!” Shanaela gave him a look.
Mini cheered happily, gathered her pajamas, and walked arm in arm with Shanaela to the neighboring house.
Wu Heng took Andre Willow to train in the courtyard.
After the training was over, he walked to his room with the vixen in his arms, “Tonight it’s just the two of us.”
“Mhm.” Andre Willow’s cheeks turned slightly red, and she clung tightly to him.
…
Night fell.
In Shanaela’s room.
Mini rolled on the bed and said, “It’s not as comfortable as my bed.”
Shanaela laughed it off without concern.
“Seriously, the mattress was brought by Master from outside, it’s very soft and comfortable,” Mini emphasized as she lay on her side.
“Softer than mine?”
“Not just soft, it’s also springy. You can bounce on it,” Mini patted the bed, “You should stay over at my place tomorrow, it’s really soft.”
Shanaela’s heart began to race at the thought of staying next door.
She said, “What are you talking about? You’re staying here with me, we’re both women. Your place is ultimately a man’s, what if others see you?”
“What’s there to be afraid of, as long as we’re happy?”
The two changed into their pajamas, and Shanaela eyed the other’s corset, saying, “I’ve never seen such a corset before.”
Mini giggled and replied, “This is a corset from Master’s hometown, meant to be worn under clothes by women, and it’s very comfortable.”
“The material does feel different from the ones I’m used to,” Shanaela noted.
“Try one on. If it fits, I’ll give it to you,” Mini said with a smile.
Being the president of the First Commerce Association and hearing a maid offer her something felt strange but amusing.
“Then I will give it a try.”
She took off her silk nightgown, exposing her fair and voluptuous figure.
Mini showed her how to put it on.
However, the garment seemed too short.
“Sister, this is too big for you, this size won’t fit. Tomorrow I’ll tell the director to find you a bigger one,” Mini said.
“No, don’t mention such things to a man.”
“What’s there to fear? Master really likes you, and I’m sure he’d like your figure too.”
Shanaela raised an eyebrow, “He likes women with good figures?”
“Like you, big and soft.” Mini approached and grabbed two handfuls.
Shanaela immediately covered her chest, “Stop it, let’s sleep!”
“Okay!” Mini also dived under the quilt.
…
The next day, at the association.
Passing through the lobby, he exchanged the merit reward for killing the ‘Iron Barrel Pirate Group leader.’
He glanced at the Skill Book and then reviewed the available items.
Wu Heng’s gaze settled on a robe.
[Arcane Recirculation Silk Robe]
(Description: The wearer’s movement speed increases, and spell casting costs are reduced.)
This item was quite good.
The robe Wu Heng was currently wearing was obtained from killing a ’16th level’ Necromancer, the [Calm Robe].
It enhanced spell casting speed and external interference resistance.
Wu Heng’s spell casting was already fast, and his skills weren’t mainly attack spells, but rather summoning skeletons and some secondary effect spells.
Spell casting speed wasn’t that critical for him.
On the contrary, he felt an increase in movement speed and a reduction in spell casting costs would be more suitable for him.
“I’ll take this one,” Wu Heng said.
