    She smiled unconsciously when she saw his excitement. She quite enjoyed admiring Severin while he was busy doing alchemy. Handsome men tended to exude a certain charm when they concentrated their attention on the task at hand.


    "Who would''ve known that you''ve made such a quick breakthrough to be a third-grade low-rank alchemist! Those threemanders will probably try to suck up to you if they ever find out about this," She remarked. She did a stretch and stood up from the bed. She then went to the bathroom to wash up.


    Severin smiled and looked carefully at the pill that he had just refined. He subsequently stored the pill in a porcin bottle and put away the alchemy furnace.N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    After She got dressed, Severin brought her downstairs to have breakfast.


    "Hey, Severin... can I... umm... can I call you ''dear'' in the future?" She asked shyly after they walked out of the hotel.


    Severin looked at her bashful appearance and said with a smile, "Of course! You''re my woman after all. Calling me ''honey'' or ''darling'' is fine too. As long as you''re happy, you''re free to call me whatever you want."


    She''s heart was filled with joy. She looked at Severin and said nervously, "D-dear!"


    Upon hearing that, he immediately asked with a straight face, "Did you just call me ''the deer"? Do I look like a deer to you?"


    "Ugh, you jerk! I stuttered because I''m nervous." She turned even shier after Severin teased her. She even punched Severin''s shoulder softly a couple of times.


    Severin felt rather content when he saw her act like that. ''Why haven''t I noticed her adorable side before? She''s so much different from before too. She looks more feminine and more mature. Perhaps everything that I went through recently made this cute yet stubborn girl even more attractive in my eyes.''


    Many passing men could not help but look enviously at him. The two of them came to a decent-looking restaurant and sat down to order some food.


    During that time, Otto Province Mansion had already sent their men to check the luxury hotels. Their goal was to find out whether the hotels hosted any guests with the name Severin.


    Sure enough, it did not take long for one of the men to find out the exact hotel that Severin was staying at. To confirm whether or not the person was exactly the one whom they were looking for, they adjusted the hotel''s surveince system and saw that Severin and She had just left the hotel.


    That discovery was cause for celebration. After all, Owen had already promised a bonus of seven-hundred- and-fifty-thousand dors to whoever seeded in locating Severin''s whereabouts. With such a reward,


    it was no surprise that those who were assigned to investigate made an all-out effort toplete their task.
