The Tales of Draconic Warlock

Chapter 169: My Slow Life (1)

I returned to the academy as the semester holidays ended. This means I have to increase my concentration and improve my skills a bit more than I used to do in the past month.

My main concentration is going to be Angela though. This is because I have to improve my relationship with her.

Before now, there are only casual sex encounters. We never spoke about our relationship. Moreover, she was the dominant one most of the time when we had sex. She could become the dominant one in our relationship which would be bad for my harem.

If she is the dominant one, then that means what she says would be the law in our relationship. If that happens and she doesn't want me to have a harem, then I have to forget about that. I can't let that happen. I have to turn the tide.

If I want the harem, I should be the dominant one.

It was not just that. I want to be the one who dominates our relationship, not the other way around. If anyone learns that she has the final say in my life, then I would become the laughing stock.

I can already see that in my father and mother's relationship. I believe she was the reason why he never had a harem.

Which man would willing to give up the chance of having multiple lovers?

I am not. I won't let what happened to my father happen to me too.

Why can't Angela be like her sister?

Hmm, maybe that's a good thing. There is no way that one would initiate a relationship like Angela did.

If Angela was like her sister, maybe we wouldn't have what we have now.

It was night when I chose to return to the academy. After arriving at the academy, I took the keys to the quarters before settling for the night.

My mom packed fod for he night. So there was no need to waste my personal funds for dinner tonight.

I ate what my mom packed for me, while Asya ate what she could hunt in the secret realm. I chose to not feed her and she had to hunt on her own whenever she felt hungry.

This is because it's not easy to feed a monster that eats food that can feed a few hundred people. It started recently after it started to grow. Any adult would eat more than a child would eat.

Back then it was easy to feed but now if I keep on feeding her, I would go bankrupt soon.

Well, technically I am now poor. Most of the resources that I gained from missions, dungeons and the secret realm were used for the improvement of my Dragon Bloodline. Though I still have the secret realm, I still have to mine those resources in order to use them.

So technically I am still broke but that doesn't matter much as I am trying to take it slow. I don't want to rush but to enjoy my youth and the second life I gained.

After spending some time with Angela, I returned to my quarters. It was already noon, so I ordered some lunch. I was quite hungry, especially after the steamy session I had with Angela in the morning.

Being at peak Tier-5 doesn't help either.

If I activate my Devour physique or my Devour skill, then the amount of food that I would need would increase by a lot.

Devour skill, I could control from the beginning, whereas my physique was not controllable as the skill. So whenever I ate anything, it would convert some of the food into various attributes. It made me hungry easily and I had to eat more for someone of my age.

Luckily that was after I awakened and no one thought much about it.

If I ate as I did at the beginning, my pockets would be empty on any given day. I have to work every day to fill my stomach. Not working on a single day would mean, no food for that day.

Luckily, as I started to get control over my physique, it made it easy for me to activate or deactivate as I wished.

After having my lunch, I went to the mission hall to see if there were any interesting missions to take on.

What I learned in the first semester was that the first morning would always be full of people, to either take new missions or submit completed missions.

This was because there were many who would be returning from home like me, would take on the new missions, while a few would stay through the holidays and pick up missions during the holidays.

They are the ones that would be returning at this time.

So I decided to visit Angela first before I went to the mission hall. Moreover, she warned me to visit her first after returning or else she would beat me up.

However, I think that may not be possible anymore as I believe our ranks are the same more or less. She may have some tricks up her sleeve but with my increased attributes, there is no way for her to beat me.

The issue was she may hold back having sex with me. It may possibly be the only weapon that she has against me. Other than that, there is nothing.

Ah, there are not many missions still available for me to pick from. The interesting ones and the highly paid ones should have already been picked up in the morning.

I could have arrived here in the morning and then could have gone to see Angela but I didn't.

One, coming here in the morning would waste a lot of my time.

Two, I am not the Magnus who used to rush to reach the higher stage. I am the Magnus who wants to have a slow life.

As I said before, there are not that many threats remaining. Most of them would probably target other family members rather than me. So no need to rush. I can do things much more slowly now.
