They all call me Great Master-Chapter 496 - 493: Assistance from the Female Swordmaster!

Ascend Step!

Arthur had guessed it before.

Given the strength that the Earl of South Los possessed and his influence in South Los, apart from needing the "Ascend Steper" to be valued by the other party, Arthur couldn't think of anything else.

However, what Arthur hadn't anticipated was...

The 'Ascend Steper' turned out to be three.

'Three 'Ascend Steper'!

What a surprise!'

Arthur couldn't help but sigh again in his heart.

Sighing at the emergence of three 'Ascend Steper'.

Even more so, he was amazed at the composure of the Earl of South Los when facing the three 'Ascend Steper'.

Knowing there were three 'Ascend Steper' present, the Earl could still remain so 'relaxed', and the current Swordsmanship Chief, though filled with surprise in tone, did not show a trace of panic in her expression, what did this indicate?

It indicated that, in the eyes of this Female Swordmaster, Lord Count at least was confident in facing these three 'Ascend Steper'.

'My Lord Count!

What level is your strength, after all?

'God Ascension Ten Stages', which stage have you stepped onto?

Or did the South Los House leave you with any fallback?

Alas!

Such a millennia-old family really does feel troublesome.'

Arthur sighed inwardly while his facial expression did not change.

The accumulation of the millennia-old family cannot be ignored.

But this oversight was advantageous for him.

At least, in the South Los he needn't worry about three 'Ascend Steper' coming his way.

Besides, he's just a young, upright, naïve, and kind-hearted 'Spirit Medium', why would the three 'Ascend Steper' come for him?

If the sky falls, the Earl of South Los will be there to hold it up.

The other party is tall.

And him?

Grow!

He survived the growth!

Knowing this, Arthur quickly calmed down after the initial surprise.

Arthur looked at Marinda, who was taking food in the hall, his eyes filled with tender love as he lowered his voice —

"Please make sure to keep this a secret, Marinda must absolutely not find out."

With this, Arthur also pointed at the position of his abdomen.

That represented the child.

"Of course!"

The Female Swordmaster nodded guiltily.

She was involved in the plan to 'deceive' Arthur with Marinda.

Even though such deception held no malice, what if?

What if Arthur became angry?

Arthur held feelings for Marinda, so he might not react too harshly.

But not toward her!

He would certainly lash out at her then!

He might even vent his anger on Lord Count!

'Damn, I was reckless again!

What should I do?

What to do?'

Suddenly, this Female Swordmaster felt a bit of panic inside.

She absolutely did not want to see such a thing happen.

Almost instinctively, she touched the potion inside her bosom.

This was no longer a "Guaranteed Hit Potion."

It was an enhanced version of the "Guaranteed Hit Potion," the "Guaranteed Hit. Child Safely Born Potion"!

It was a potion concocted by Potion Master Quin, who had become her father's drinking buddy, for the better continuance of the Giant Tribe.

It not only had the original 'guaranteed' function but also greatly protected the 'fetus', allowing the child to be born smoothly and prematurely under the condition of abundant nutrition.

This was not premature birth but was tailored for the long pregnancy period typical of the Giant Tribe.

It could reduce a ten-year pregnancy period to about five years.

'If Marinda takes such a potion, the child could probably be born in about five months and be extremely healthy— Master Quin has said, the "Guaranteed Hit. Child Safely Born Potion" also works on normal people, and is even more effective, reducing the pregnancy period proportionally, and can also enhance the child's Talent!'

With this, my resentment towards Arthur should be dispelled!

But this must require Arthur's cooperation, and he must not notice anything strange!

"In that case..."

The Female Swordmaster touched the other two potions.

[Sleep Potion]!

[Confusion Potion]!

These were also masterpieces of Master Quin.

Originally, she had planned to find a suitable target to use them herself.

But at this moment, she could no longer care about that.

"That's right!"

"Arthur is too familiar with Marinda!"

"So, I cannot inform Marinda either!"

"Everything must proceed in silence!"

The Female Swordmaster suddenly thought of this.

Immediately, she gave herself a mental thumbs up.

A slight sense of pleasure surged in her heart.

The feeling was as if to say, 'Don't look at me as reckless usually, but at the crucial moment, I am still incredibly clever!'

Under this cleverness buff, the Female Swordmaster thought of more.

"Time!

Now I just need to calculate the perfect timing, then, host a dinner for Marinda and Arthur, and everything will succeed—and with Marinda's physique and strength, if it's not obvious in the early stages, it can still be plausible."

"Five months?

That's enough!"

The Female Swordmaster clenched her fist fiercely.

Arthur noticed the suddenly invigorated and excited Female Swordmaster.

"Is it because of the thrill to fight a real 'Ascend Steper'?

Worthy of the Giant Tribe!

A natural-born warrior race!"

Arthur praised inwardly while his gaze shifted back to Marinda.

'Hehe, you think you know enough?

But the truly valuable core is with me!

Just keep building more ships for me!

The news of three 'Ascend Steppers' worth twenty ships, isn't that fair?'

Arthur thought to himself, his eyes shining with a joyful smile.

"Huh?"

Marinda, who was grabbing some roast meat, suddenly felt a chill on her back, and her instinct as a 'woman' told her something bad was happening, but when she looked around, she met Arthur's eyes brimming with laughter.

Immediately, her thoughts went astray.

'What mischief is this bastard thinking about now?'

She thought to herself, barely suppressing the urge to roll her eyes, and carried the twenty kilograms of roast meat up the stairs.

Marinda was already the absolute star of Caesar Manor.

At that moment, carrying twenty kilograms of roast meat.

Naturally, everyone's gaze followed Marinda, but upon seeing the Female Swordmaster standing upstairs, everyone's faces showed relief.

That towering height nearly reaching the ceiling and a body as wide as a wall, eating that much is truly not excessive!

Later in a room unseen by others, the Female Swordmaster unexpectedly saw Arthur's unpretentious way of eating— he went straight for it with his hands.

This manner reminded the Female Swordmaster of her hometown, Garden Island.

Moreover, Arthur's uninhibited eating habits made her feel that he was a friend she could acknowledge, one she shouldn't lose due to misunderstandings.

"So..."

"I must drug him!"

"I must ensure my friend Arthur's life happiness!"

Thinking of the thanks she'd receive from her friend Arthur later, the Female Swordmaster ate even more heartily.

Because of this, Marinda had to go downstairs to fetch roast meat twice.

The guests, even when leaving, were marveling at the Female Swordmaster's huge appetite.

There was even speculation whether one had to be a big eater to be that strong.

In response, the Female Swordmaster, facing the strange gazes, didn't care at all; she was used to it, and her identity made her fearless.

"Arthur, Marinda, I need to return to South Los.

More important matters are still waiting for me."

The Female Swordmaster bade farewell to Arthur and Marinda.

Without much small talk, the Female Swordmaster turned and left.

And just as the Female Swordmaster vanished, Arthur unexpectedly saw Kuke, accompanied by Scott, Wiggins, Haywood, and Fengter, walking towards him.

"What happened?"
