Chapter 38: Chapter 38: ‘Don’t worry you’ll be screaming out daddy soon.

’ Mission accomplished.’

While Bernadette held his hand in concern, Andrew inwardly rejoiced at this sight.

Though he felt from her previous reactions that she might have well given him bj as a show of concern if he acted more cutely. He didn’t dare bet on that.

Not only was the Demon Aphrodisiac Array that once tormented the palace gone, weakening the resistance of the opposite gender towards sex... His step mother, Bernadette, was a strong valiant woman who led and subdued the upper echelon in the kingdom. Which meant she was well versatile in schemes and wasn’t a fool to tricks. Progressing that quickly would instantly blow his cover. He couldn’t read her mind and didn’t know if she was interested in her young step son just like he was interested in fucking her.

Revealing a resolute glint in his eyes, Andrew said as if finally making up his mind.

"Humm... I awakened my talent and cultivated it in secret."

Upon hearing Andrew’s words, Bernadette’s eyes flashed with surprise.

Keeping quiet for a few moments, her gaze never leaving Andrew who avoided her stare.

"Yo.. you awakened?" She managed to utter, suppressing her surprise that Andrew had awakened and managed to keep it a secret. That means if he hadn’t told her, she wouldn’t have known.

Or was he just bluffing to impress her?

She couldn’t even sense even the slightest bit of an Awakened aura on him.

Revealing a smile, just as she wanted to offer him words of comfort.. Andrew stood up, letting go of her palm, he turned his back to her. Then with a deep breath an aura of the Mystic Rank escaped his body like a dormant beast that had been awakened. A trick he had learnt the previous day, to uncloak the passive stealth that hid his Mystic Rank when he wasn’t using Mystic energy.

Since his physique was unmeasurably stronger than his Mystic Rank, Mystic energy couldn’t leak off his body.

Just like a water in a jar.

If he wasn’t using Mystic energy his Rank would not be exposed.

Then using the common knowledge of a cultivator, absorbed from his predecessor’s remnant soul. He was able to control the leak, just like now...

Bam!

Cracks!

Andrew stamped his feet on the ground, and the spotless marble tiles beneath him cracked, forming a rough outline of his feet in the dent.

Well.. this was the most minimal attack he could release from his body after several practices to control his strength.

Though a little exaggerated, it was within reach to find a reasonable explanation.

.

Silence...

Just as the sound of cracks reached her ears, right after Andrew revealed his aura.

Her lids quivered,her emotions tumultuous, she swallowed back the comforting words she was about to say.

Shock? Surprise? She felt none at that instant. Only blankness. Her eyes staring down at Andrew’s feet.

Well.. she would be staring more than that if she knew the actual of the thing between his legs.

.

With a naive look,as if what he just did had taken a great deal to perform, Andrew turned back.

Meanwhile in her blank state,

’Just what type of Talent did he awaken?’ Bernadette thought.

First, she was unable to sense Andrew’s Mystic Rank aura despite being a higher rank, far above him.

Even more unbelievable he had reached the Mystic Rank in secret all by himself at such a young age.

Bernadette instantly felt complex emotions well in her heart, as her gaze at Andrew subtly changed.

An unnoticed talent that surpassed even her daughter’s own.

SS? SS+?

’So he had been shamed for nothing all these years?’

Instantly the concerned look in her eyes deepened as she thought about how disheartened Andrew must have felt that his Talent wasn’t noticed and he was instead criticized as trash.

’To be able to stump cracks through the marble tiles must have been a result of his higher grade talent activating.’

Meanwhile, as if not noticing his stepmother’s complex emotions. Andrew with a naive look, as he mustered up his courage, turned to her.

Choosing to except the second...

"Mother, please train me to fight."

"Just like you’ve said, I want to be the man who protects you,mom,Aria,Ava, Amelia and Mia. Every woman I hold dear in my heart." Andrew said with fervor,a burning passion to protect his women and loved ones brimming in his eyes. Stunning his stepmother speechless once more as her gaze at him widened , a timid blush briefly flashing past her cheeks for a moment.

’Good! As expected, the love and care tactic still works.’ Andrew thought.

But then, he quickly turned timid. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

" I.. I don’t know how to use a sword or fight." His words quickly rushed out as if he was embarrassed about his honest statement after making such grand speech.

Hearing Andrew’s words, it took Bernadette a moment to reply.

Finding Andrew’s action cute,she ruffled his blonde hair in a playful manner.

"It’s ok Drew, second mom here will help you train to be a good strong,no valiant man." realizing Andrew was already strong to begin with, she changed her goal.

"But first, we’ll have to talk to your mother about this. I don’t want to have her think I kidnapped her handsome son for my secret pleasure." brushing the latter part of the statement with a soft laug, she said.

Bernadette gave a quick glance at the cracks Andrew had created. I’ll have that fixed too.

"You can wait while I put on my dress." turning to Andrew, Bernadette’s smile widened as she gestured towards the blue victorian dress on the bed.

’Fuck you! Trying to blow my cover huh?’ Andrew cursed inwardly, an awkward shy look forming on his face.

"Hmm... sure!"

5 minutes later... Watching his step mother put on the remaining of her dress,fitting in her robust melons, and her teasing smiles at shy peeks of extended glance at her chest. Andrew could only thank his quick wit’s for the extra measures he put in place to hide his bulge in case he ended up getting hard. Surely his step mother would have been more than shocked to witness the rough outline of his cock, awakened by her seducing body.

Meanwhile he had noticed her wandering glance at his crotch. With only a slight bump visible.

She must have thought he was small and treated him like a kid.

’Don’t worry you’ll be screaming out daddy soon.
