Millennium Tension

Chapter 29: Ask For Help

"Lady Evelyn? May I know why you asked us to wait?" Aizen turned around and faced Evelyn who had just come to him. The other nobles seemed to be still discussing something and did not pay attention to Aizen who was already far enough from them, Evelyn had excused herself to come after Aizen who was about to return to the hotel after ordering people from the Azazel branch family who came with her to return to the hotel where they were staying without herself with an important business reason.

Evelyn who had removed the grip of the hem of the clothes she was holding earlier because of the cold gaze from the two girls who accompanied Aizen, now she felt rather nervous. "Um... Can we talk privately?"

"Hmmm... I'm sure they will ask me to come back tomorrow morning and will send someone to the hotel where I am staying now, considering that they seem to have forgotten their original purpose." Aizen already knew what made him invited here, and also knew what they had planned beforehand.

Pity for the successor to the family of Elyson, Zirion, and Lynn. Their agenda is forgotten and is likely to be delayed until tomorrow.

"No... That's not what I meant. I want to talk privately with you. Only you and me, without other nobles. Can you grant this little girl's request?" Even though she was still stared coldly by the two girls who accompanied Aizen, Evelyn was now convinced that only Aizen could help her difficulties, she made up her mind to ask him for help, no matter how much it cost.

Aizen looked at the long brownish blond girl with braids that adorned her head, and her green eyes seemed to emit a precarious aura filled with determination. "If this means a lot to you, you can come to the hotel where we are currently staying."

Aizen did not wait for Evelyn to answer and just left with Ana and Axel to head to the 'Grand Weisses Hotel'.

"Um. Thank you..." Evelyn answered softly and followed them.

Feeling the girl who was following them looked confused after Aizen and the two girls boarded one of the special limousine vehicles that deliberately provided by the Stanford family to take their guests to their destination.

"Please come in." Aizen invited Evelyn to come with them. Evelyn was excited and entered politely before Aizen told the driver to take them to the 'Grand Weisses Hotel' via an intercom installed in the car's interior.

Their journey took place in silence which made Evelyn nervous once again. The figure before her is none other than the creator of [Axel Goddess], the parent system of the [Axtia Goddess] that Mars uses. Moreover, she thought that Aizen and his two girls who accompanied him were gods who had lived for thousands of years, a figure that far exceeded her wild imagination, it was only natural for Evelyn to consider herself as a little girl before them.

'Brother Aizen, she wants something from you?' Ana spoke in her mind in a neutral tone.

'Maybe you're right, I've checked her life history, we can call her a strong and poor girl. Even though we know she will ask for help, let's just listen to what she will say privately later.'

"Is that so... If you have decided to help her then I won't say much." Ana pretended to yawn and put her head on Aizen's lap and straightened her legs in the wide limousine chair before closing her eyes as if she was going to sleep.

'What's with this sudden behavior?'

'Hehe... I'm already asleep. So, carry me later and give me a goodnight kiss.' Ana said mischievously and did not respond afterward as if she was really asleep.

"It seems that Miss Anastasia is sleepy?" Evelyn tried to make a conversation, unable to hold the silence if it continued.

"Yes, my little angel feels tired." Aizen gently caresses his daughter's head affectionately which makes his lap as her comfortable pillow.

After that Evelyn became awkward again, feeling a little jealous considering that she had not received that kind of love for a long time ever since she was little, everything was filled with training and learning to fulfill their expectations.

"Master Aizen, Miss Evelyn looks awkward and feels a little jealous... Poor girl, she's alone after all of that." Axel also checks the data about the girl who came with them and does not seem to mind if Aizen would listen to her or even give her a helping hand.

'The big responsibility that is borne by her small body, it's only natural that she needs a pillar of support in her difficulties. She doesn't have anyone to rely on after all.'

'En.'

Arriving at the hotel, Aizen carried Ana in a princess-carrying style to their 'Grand Suite' room. Axel followed quietly beside him and Ana seemed to have a sweet smile on her face while being princess-carried by him as if she had a beautiful dream in her sleep, while Evelyn followed obediently from behind.

Although this line became the center of attention for a moment, no one dared to stand in their way.

Once they arrived in their room, Aizen asks Evelyn to wait in the living room for a moment while Aizen gently puts the girl he brought in a princess-carrying style into the main bedroom before kissing her forehead before returning to the living room.

Seeing Aizen return to the living room, Axel who had prepared a cup of tea for the two of them, then she excused herself and entered the master bedroom, leaving the two of them in the living room for the private conversation Evelyn asked beforehand.

"Now it's just me and you. So what do you want to talk about?" Evelyn observes Aizen, who is so relaxed enjoying tea and seems unconcerned, she knew a figure like Aizen would never hurt her.

After convincing herself several times, and finally feeling that she had enough determination she opened her mouth trying to ask for his help.

"Mr. Aizen, What do I have to pay to get your service?"

"..." The room became quiet as soon as the words that could mean something else were said, even Aizen no longer sipped his tea and watched the girl's face before him.

'What does that mean?' Aizen pondered in his mind, whether Evelyn seriously asked such silly things after asking to speak privately with him or the nervousness she still radiated obscured her judgment and made the words she wanted to say become messy...

Suddenly a gloomy aura of jealousy came from the main bedroom.

'Axel is jealous? Or Ana? Or even both??' Aizen asked in his mind innocently. The thoughts and feelings of the three of them are connected since they are in one system and can be felt by each other, this makes them almost unable to hold a secret.

'...' Axel and Ana did not answer, but Aizen knew they might have other intentions if Evelyn's words in their imaginations were true. Nobody knew what they would do to Evelyn if that really happened.
