Chapter 88: Inner feelings

88- Inner feelings

Yes, my first condition is for you to marry Armelia.

Huh?

Did I hear that correctly?

What do you mean?

I asked keeping my mind and emotions in control.

Sheela replied,

I said that I want you to marry my daughter Armelia.

Hearing this I was completely shocked.

Why would she want me to marry Armelia out of nowhere?

So, instead of raking my brain and putting strain on it, I decided to ask her the reason but before I could speak, Sheela spoke.

I know you might find this condition weird but from what I can see, my daughter has developed feelings for you. And as a mother, I would like my child to be happy. So, wouldnt it be better if I could get you to marry her?

I knew that Armelia has developed feelings for me but I never thought of marrying her.

But nonetheless, I did have some feeling for her and I dont think marrying her will be of any problem.

umm...Ok then I will marry her.

Actually, to be honest, the biggest reason that I had agreed to marry Armelia was because of the system notification that popped when Sheela expressed her first condition.

ding

Sheela has expressed her first condition Marry Armelia.

Does Host accept the condition?

(YES) or (NO)

Please note that failing to accept this condition will lead to Hosts death.

So, after I received the system notification, I agreed to the condition. And also, because this condition is not so harsh.

.

Hearing my reply, Sheela and Bertha were happy. Sheela spoke,

Very well then after you get 18 years old, you can marry Armelia.

And I replied simply,

Ok

Fufufu, Sheela let the two of us go and tell this news to my niece, Armelia.

Said Bertha and hearing this Sheela chuckled. And I understood the hidden meaning behind those words I(Bertha) want to tease Armelia.

And I can only laugh awkwardly.

Then Bertha and Sheela exited the room and I sat on the bed.

After sitting for 5-6 minutes without moving, a smile appeared on my face.

And if anyone saw my expression right now, they would simply say two words- [Devils smile].

Now, why would I be smiling out of nowhere?

Was I smiling because I can be cured and get rid of the biggest problem?

Or

Was I smiling because my marriage has been fixed with Armelia?

Or

Was I smiling because, soon I can have my revenge?

Or

Was I smiling because I completed the mission that was issued during the time when bald guy was chasing us?

Or

Was I smiling because I can do lewd things with Sheela and taste the fruit called immoral? (You know getting married to daughter and doing dual cultivation with mother).

.

No.

Although, I was smiling but my expression was cold and a vague killing intent was being released.

Now, why would I be releasing killing intent and to whom is it being directed towards?

And the answer is Sheela and Bertha.

Why?

Because when the burly guy was about to force himself on Armelia and, Sheela coming to rescue at the exact moment was a lucky timing or a miracle or coincidence?

I dont believe it.

When Armelia narrated what happened after I was unconscious, I grew suspicious about the time of arrival of Sheela at the scene.

But when Armelia said that her mother knew how to cure me, I decided to hid this suspicion deep inside me because I thought maybe she would be generous enough to reward / compensate me for trying to protect her daughter and for getting tortured in the process.

And even if she did decide to save Armelia after looking at my torture show, I felt that if I could be cured then I will bury or forget this incident.

But when she told me to make the oath and fulfil 2 conditions each, I felt angry. But I quickly suppressed that anger because I did not want to reveal any kind of negative emotion as I knew that - higher a persons cultivation, higher his/ her senses.

And if I revealed any kind of anger or killing intent at that time, I was sure that Bertha and Sheela would be able to sense it and the situation might turn bad; worse case situation: they might just disagree to help me or might even put forward harsh conditions.

So, instead of arguing with them or asking them - Is this how you repay someone who tried to save your daughter?;

I made the oath and accepted their conditions. Because getting cured is the top priority.

But that doesnt mean, I would let this slide.

Being a living thing with emotions, she must have the basic understanding that to save her daughter, I had to go through a hellish torture. And for that even if she was not filled with huge gratitude, she could at least help cure the poison.

But NO; she asked me to make the oath.

And this makes me angry.

And if she really waited on the sidelines and watched while I was being tortured, then -

I swear, I will make you pay for this.

And this incident made my resolve firm. That is -

To get stronger as soon as possible.

Yes, to get stronger. Because right now, I dont even have the strength to protect myself and getting payback from people like Sheela, is still nothing but a dream.

As for Bertha, she will have her own share because I feel that she will put forward some ridiculous conditions in the future.

Quickly, I got back to normal and controlled my emotions.

Because, having any killing intent towards the people who are related to the oath might put me in danger.

It's something like there are two people and they have made a certain deal with each other. But after the deal is completed, one person backstabs the other because from the beginning, he had no intention in being ethical or sticking to business and human ethics. He just cooperated with the other person, just to complete the deal and after that he planned to kill him.

Heavens will is not a fool. It can certainly sense my intent to kill and if my intent is strong then it will be similar to the above example. And if that happens, then I would be killed before I know it.

And anyway, I never had the intention to kill Sheela or Bertha. Therefore, my intent to kill could be also said a type of anger.

But of course, I will get some payback in the future.
