Chapter 133 Juliet decision

"Caw-caw!"

Above Adam's estate, the cawing of a raven echoed, and the maids, who had raised their heads, smiled when they noticed a large raven flying in the sky. It circled the estate, cawing melodically. This was the mayor of the city's pet, known as Roav. He was the darling of the maids, and they took great care of his wings, making the raven shine.

"Caaaaaw!"

Roav cawed again and, flapping his wings, descended with a whistle - BOOM - a loud sound echoed as the raven collided with the ground with its beak, and the nearby chambermaids rushed to him, looking tired. They had expressions on their faces as if they were saying, "Oh my goodness, not again?!"

With a puzzled look in his red eyes, the raven watched as the approaching chambermaids, holding the hem of their dresses, ran towards him. After a few minutes, they successfully pulled Roav out of the earth, though his beak was still dirty, and his feathers were covered in dust. n))O.(v--e/-L/-B-)I-.n

"Ahh! Roav, we bathed you half an hour ago!" complained a very young chambermaid with long black hair and brown eyes, her height being 135 cm. She pouted and poked Roav's beak, and he turned his head away, as if embarrassed.

"That's enough, Lisa. He's still a curious little one, maybe he wanted to lift our Lord's spirits," another chambermaid with short chestnut hair down to her shoulders and beautiful brown eyes said with an affectionate smile. She had a large bust and a slender figure.

"Chloe, Lord Adam... he..."

Lisa mumbled his name, feeling painful, lowering her head and staring at her shoes. For several days in a row, Adam hadn't left his office and was immersed in work, only talking to his trusted people - Shizuya, Claire, Mary, Ekaterina, Amarantha, Elyra, and Elara. Only these seven women were with him around the clock and mostly relayed the mayor's orders. This had become the reason why most of the chambermaids had started to envy and be jealous.

Among them was Chloe, the woman with short chestnut hair, who narrowed her eyes and clicked her tongue. At the strange sound, Lisa raised her head and looked puzzled at Chloe, smiling affectionately at her, and a question mark appeared above her head. However, the girl felt a strange coldness all over her body.

"Brr... Is it getting cold?" she asked, hugging herself.

"Eh? Oh... yeah, it seems so," Chloe blinked in puzzlement, then nodded with a loving smile, hugging Lisa.

Lisa, who had felt the warmth of her older sister, smiled gently, but her smile froze on her face when she saw the frozen grass turning into ice. Cold sweat streamed down her forehead, and the once gentle embrace of her older sister felt suffocating.

"Big sister... how jealous can you be?" thought the little girl, shuddering in horror and praying to all the gods in this world: "Please, save Lord Adam from such crazy women like her..."

"Achoo!" Amarantha, Elara, and Shizuya suddenly sneezed and looked at each other in confusion.

"Are you sick, Ama? I thought practitioners of your level don't get sick," Elyra exclaimed in surprise, holding a stack of papers that were school reports. She looked puzzled at Elara and Shizuya, who were rubbing their noses. "You two should dress warmer. These are cold times, and the weather changes more often than Juliet's mood."

"Hey!"

The woman in question frowned and protested loudly, slamming her hand on the armrest of the chair, leaving a crack in it. However, she grimaced with horror when she felt Amarantha's gaze, whose pupils had turned into dollar signs.

"FUC-"

"That'll be 10 Platinum DK from you, wild one," Amarantha sighed, tiredly looking at the spirited woman.

"Damn demons! Do you have a whole family of merchants or something?!" she yelled, reluctantly taking out 10 Platinum DK from her pouch and handing over compensation for the damage.

"Thanks for your cooperation~" Amarantha grinned.

Casting a weary glance at them, Shizuya picked up the papers from Elyra and sat down nearby, beginning to study the school documents. This was the report for the first month, and she dutifully immersed herself in her work. During this time, her cat ears twitched, and her tail swayed gently, showing her concentration.

"Our results for the first month are not the best..."

"NYAAAA!" Shizuya squealed in a girlish manner, with a hint of catlike inflection, and her tail puffed up as if she were preparing to attack.

"What a cute reaction," Amarantha said with a mischievous smile as she suddenly appeared behind Shizuya. Her face bore a naughty expression.

"Stop scaring me, you devil! My heart almost stopped from fear!"

"Nah, it's fun~ Especially your 'NYAAA,' I'm sure our husband will love it."

"NYAAH! SHUT UP!"

Juliet silently watched the scene where two women argued with each other while the others were busy with their work. She had only one question in her mind: "Why the hell am I stuck here with these crazies?" She sighed heavily and massaged her nose, feeling exhausted from their pointless banter. During this, Elyra suddenly raised her head and looked at Juliet with a puzzled expression, asking:

"By the way, why are you here?"

"..."

***

Adam's Office. The windows were covered with curtains, preventing any light from penetrating inside, making the room dark and filled with a gloomy atmosphere. Under the man's eyes, there were bags from stress, while he wielded a ballpoint pen he had stolen from his previous life. Before him lay papers with reports and official requests that he had to fulfill.

Scratch... scratch... rustle...

There was a scraping sound as Adam wrote on the paper and a rustling as he replaced the completed paper with a new one. And there were three towers of such papers, growing with each passing moment. He had locked himself in his office for two days already because all of this required a lot of work and attention, and he didn't want to be distracted by other things. Although, of course, he took breaks from time to time to avoid dying from stress, mixing it with hugs and kisses from his women.

"I hate working... but if I don't work, I won't be able to bring many plans to fruition. Sacrifice for the greater good, indeed..." Adam frowned and muttered these words to himself, which over the past two or three days had turned into a mantra that kept him sane and added the optimism needed to solve many complicated matters. "I hate these stupid demons... everything was fine, so why are they disrupting my plans?"

He snorted and signed another paper, tossing it into a small portal, the B-side of which was located on the advisor's desk in Avalonia Castle. But since he had to stay in Sedyon due to key moments, work had shifted to remote mode. The only thing missing was video conferences...

"That's it... I'm done for today. I'll rest, and by evening, I need to deal with details like creating a new city and bunkers." He sighed and stood up, pushing the papers aside.

Tilting his head to the right, he pressed it to his shoulder and cracked his neck. Then he began cracking his finger joints, and then his back. When Adam felt alive again after performing his peculiar ritual, he approached the door and placed his hand on the round doorknob, pushing it away from him to open the door directly into his bedroom, where there was already a lively atmosphere.

A slight creak of the door caught the attention of all the women, including Juliet, whose previously gloomy face brightened when she realized that she could finally finish her business. She stood up and met his gaze, opening her mouth to speak: "Mayor Ada-" but...

"Adam!"

A loud cry of joy came from Elyra, and a moment later, the girl landed right in his arms, clinging to him like a koala. Her face wore a bright and innocent smile, but for some reason, Adam heard muffled snorts, which he successfully ignored.

Other women also approached him, embracing his body, although there wasn't enough space for all of them, so they settled on a large sofa. And so, Elyra sat between his legs, pressing her buttocks against his groin, while Elara and Amarantha sat on his right and left thighs, and Shizuya wrapped her arms around his neck, burying her nose in his hair, while Mary on his left side held his hand, just like Claire, except she was on his right side.

"What the hell..." Juliet blushed heavily and pointed at Adam with her index finger, her eyes darting around, not knowing where to look. "Indecency! Are you females in heat or something?"

"Oh, come on. You're acting like an innocent girl," Adam snorted, and Juliet blushed even more. He raised an eyebrow and looked her up and down, smiling. "With your beauty, are you still alone?"

"Sh-Shut up! I won't accept a man weaker than me!"

Shrugging, Adam closed his eyes and inhaled the fragrant scent of flowers mixed. "Like a bouquet of different flowers," he thought, smiling, and finally opened his eyes, looking at Juliet.

"So... are you ready to answer?" It seemed like just one word made all the women snap out of their loving state and look at Juliet, who felt a shiver run through her body and... grinned. Her grin was so twisted that it looked like a predator was staring at you. Rolling his eyes at her behavior, Adam patiently looked at her until she regained her composure and cleared her throat to continue.

"Ahem... Ahem... in short, I've made a decision," Juliet said, furrowing her brows and crossing her arms over her chest, emphasizing her two hills. "I will compensate you for the damage and send the three culprits in the attack to the gallows."

"Awesome. Then-"

"I'm not done yet," Juliet interrupted Adam, who had pursed his lips and looked into her golden eyes. Seeing that the man was listening attentively, she continued, "I would also like you to help us."

Adam smiled and narrowed his eyes, looking at the she-wolf.

"I'm listening attentively."
