Chapter 367 Burnin’ For You P1
Layla appeared in front of him with the array disk and a vial of potion:
"Not so brave, are we? Yes, I'm done. Thankfully, a sub potion was already present in my storage. I just tweaked it a bit and made it compatible with this array. You just need to pour it on the array disk. And it would display the encrypted message till the potion doesn't evaporate.
The potion would evaporate and the encrypted message would vanish after getting displayed for a minute or two. You'd have that much time to see the contents of the message. This method is going to keep the message encrypted and will not leave any trace of breach behind it.
Hehehe! How do you like me now, Eren Idril?"
Eren gave Layla a thumbs-up and tried to take both the disk and the vial of potion away from her. She saw his hands reaching for them and took a few steps back in a hurry before answering:
"Not so fast, you vile man. You need to pay up before you can ask for the goods. I am no charity potioneer, you see. Then again, given the kind of rewards I get from a thrifty man like yours, I might fit the bill. Sigh!"
Eren smiled and retrieved a whole pile of "books" that he had just received from Jake. Thankfully, Jake didn't want to be caught reading them openly in public places. That's why he'd always remove the spicy covers– making them seem like normal reading materials.
Layla was pleasantly surprised by a new library-like collection of books. Eren took advantage of her surprise to grab the items he wanted and safely store them in his ID storage.
"As you can see Layla, I have excelled above and beyond in fulfilling my end of the deal. Now I'll take my leave. Enjoy reading a brand-new collection. Hehehe!"
Eren laughed in a suppressed manner and moved towards the door. He activated the isolation array before closing the door. He knew things would bound to get chaotic in his room once Layla realizes what she had been given. He didn't want Jake getting caught in the crossfire.
Jake was taken aback when Eren was seen leaving his room. He asked suspiciously:
"Eren, are you… done?"
Eren was in a hurry to leave the place so he just nodded before stepping out of the house. Jake watched him leave and sighed before commenting:
'One-pump man, huh! Being fast is not always a good thing.'
Eren wasn't there to hear Jake's uncalled-for burn.
He made his way towards Renita's dorm house using Blitz Steps. Meanwhile, Layla walked to the new pile of books and excitedly lifted one in her hand to read its contents.
She found it odd that all the books looked like separate volumes of various books. But she didn't judge a book by its size or cover. The young witch opened the first page of the book she had just taken in her hand and tried to read with enthusiasm.
Layla smiled as she read the first page of the book. Then her face began to change as she read. Her expressions got grim as she flipped a few pages and found a few spicy images.
Layla threw the book on the ground in anger and looked at the pile in suspicion. She picked another book and flipped a few pages. Then she checked another. Her face turned red when she realized that all the "books" she had received from Eren were "cultured" books.
"That petty man… I hate him!"
Layla stomped her feet while clenching her fist and walked inside her abode with anger written all over her face. Then she came back with a vial of potion in her hand. She threw it on the ground and disappeared into her compact abode.
The potion released a dense white mana fume that started disintegrating everything that it came in contact with. All of Jake's premium collection along with Eren's broken bed were disintegrated into nothingness soon afterwards.
*********************
Becky observed that Renita had come to her place all red-faced. She looked as if she had a fever. But before Renita could ask the ranger about it, the latter had already retired to her room.
Renita changed into her nightdress after taking a quick shower. She changed into a black nightdress, which seemed to be made of satin. She also wore a silky satin robe of the same colour over the dress. This was Renita's routine. She liked to change into simple light and less restrictive nightwear to sleep comfortably.
As she lay in bed, the night felt so restless to her. She started thinking about what had taken place between her and Eren and her cheeks immediately flushed with excitement.
Renita's excitement kept on bubbling inside her as she thought of Eren's hands roaming all over her back. She also remembered her buns getting squeezed by him.
Renita's hand subconsciously moved towards her crotch as she kept thinking about Eren and the feeling of being embraced by him. She rubbed her womanhood over her clothes as she closed her eyes. The act gave her the pleasure she was seeking at the moment.
So she increased the speed at which she was rubbing her clitty over the clothes. Soon that wasn't enough. So Renita inserted her hand inside her panties by lifting her short dress. She directed her fingers to excite her clitty and inner folds of her now-wet pussy just the way she wanted to.
"Aaaaaah, Eren!"
Renita started calling Eren's name as she kept on fingering herself vigorously. She was spreading her legs open and closing them once again in her lustful fantasy– uncaring about the world outside her room now.
Unbeknownst to Renita, Eren had come to her place and knocked on the main door of the dorm house that was shared by Renita and Becky. They had moved into the house as members of the same team.
"Eren, what are you doing here?"
Becky asked while tilting her head a bit in puzzlement. She couldn't understand Eren's reasoning for visiting their place this late at night when they had no mission planned. Additionally, he was supposed to leave the LA grounds.
"Yeah. What's up? Is... Renita in there?"
Renita raised her eyebrows and gave Eren a critical look.
'This guy is up to no good. And he is also looking kind of distraught.'
Becky folded her hands under her bosom and said in a serious voice:
"Eren, we both know you are not exactly relationship material. I don't want Renita getting hurt…"
Eren's expressions turned grim as heard Becky's speech. Normally, he would not have come this late at night to meet Renita. Especially when Becky was here who would always argue with him over something or the other.
Eren didn't hate her for it because the girl was just trying to rise above him subconsciously. As a member of his team, it was a positive thing for him as much as it was for her. But that didn't mean that Eren would just suck up the criticism thrown his way.
Plus, Eren's mental condition had been disturbed a bit. He needed comfort in Renita's arms. That was the only way he could escape his hellish nightmares.
"Stop! Is she in there or is she not? You just need to answer that, Becky. This is not a philosophical debate we are having about my personality.
I don't want to use my mana sense in this region and come across as rude.
But you know what?
My patience has limits. And you don't want to test them now."
Eren looked at his slightly trembling hands. Then he looked at Becky coldly before continuing:
"Not tonight."
