I wasn't surprised when this trash still held a grudge in the past. A grudge that made him have to endure a punishment given by my pet.

A punishment that made him look like a problematic and disgusting trash.

"If this is connected to a grudge in the past, then this will be a retaliation that makes me laugh," I said while thinking about an incident in the past, where I was continuously bullied just because my skin color was light brown.

I don't know what sin I committed in the past; it seems like the people who bullied me have a great hatred for someone with light brown skin.

Ping!!

While thinking about this, I suddenly got a new question that could be directed to the Duchess, who was sitting in front of me like this.

"Do I have to do tight security when that trash is here, Lily-sama?" Mio whispered while asking me a question.

I shook my head after hearing Mio's whisper.

"There's no need to do such a troublesome thing. With the Duchess's presence in a place like this, he can't do anything, right?" I replied, giving a glance, waiting for the Duchess's answer.

The Duchess only chuckled when she heard my question.

"Indeed, that trash can't do anything, but that doesn't mean that his level of stupidity will be able to remain calm without creating some minor problems, Lily," replied the Duchess, who seemed to know the past story between me and the Former Crown Prince of the Aurora Kingdom.

"I came here only to meet you after the spy agency in the border region of Earl Timoti reported about your suspicious presence in a place like this. If it weren't for personal business, you wouldn't be in the territory of a noble who is close to the royal family, right?" continued the Duchess's words while taking a cup of warm tea served by Mio.

By taking a cup of warm tea and sipping it, I could see the elegant and graceful movements of an experienced noble.

Even if I saw the wrinkles hidden by her makeup, I could see the Duchess's estimated old age, which was much older than my father's and mother's.

Taakkk...

"Please stop that look, Lily."

"I'm still young, you know."

As if understanding what I was thinking, the Duchess put down the cup of tea she had been drinking and gave me words that guessed my thoughts perfectly.

"Looks like I got caught," I replied in a small joking tone after being caught like this.

"In terms of experience and understanding someone's gaze, I can tell what the person I'm talking to is thinking. The gaze you're using is a gaze that is measuring someone's age," replied the Duchess while pulling her hand fan to cover part of her face.

"Speaking of age, it seems like Victoria has returned to her youth. Do you know about this, Lily?" asked the Duchess with her face hidden from behind her hand fan.

When asked a question like that, of course, I remembered an incident that happened a few years ago. An incident where the Queen of the Aurora Kingdom became my pet to cure the disease suffered by Princess Anastasia.

"I think it was a miracle that happened suddenly after Princess Anastasia recovered, right?" I replied by asking another question that was unrelated to me.

"Ah, that's right, it's an amazing miracle. To the point of making the Queen of the Aurora Kingdom, who is famous for being strict and tough, become the pet of a five-year-old young girl," replied the Duchess with her face covered by her hand fan.

I, who was leaning on the chair, began to feel cold sweat suddenly soaking my back.

I don't know what kind of pressure I'm feeling, it seems like the Duchess has known the incident that happened to the Queen of the Aurora Kingdom in such detail.

"Ah, do you want something like that too?" I asked the Duchess, who was hiding her expression from her hand fan.

Sraakkk...

When the Duchess lowered her hand fan and showed a smiling expression like a girl who was jealous of something, it made me realize her close relationship with the Queen of the Aurora Kingdom.

"It seems like the rumor is true, huh?" asked the Duchess while giving me a pleading look.

"According to the Duchess herself, is the rumor true?" I replied with a smile that made the Duchess smile widely at me.

"I'm sure that the rumor is true because it came directly from Lily," replied the Duchess who seemed to have too much trust in me.

That was an incident in the past that had happened many years ago. All the goods sold at the Yurification Shop were not cheap but I earned Yurification Points income by giving my great attention to every woman who had undergone the Linked Ritual with me.

Even by sleeping together and bathing together, it had made the Yurification Points I received increase every day. With such a large amount of Yurification Points, it seemed that spending it on buying a bottle of high-level Elixir would make my relationship with the Duchess even more intimate than it was now.

"The price paid to return to youth is not cheap, you know."

"Even the Queen of the Aurora Kingdom sacrificed her shame and pride to become my pet. Would a respectable Duchess like this do the same as the Queen of the Aurora Kingdom?" I said by asking a teasing question to the Duchess.

Hearing my teasing question like that, the Duchess just laughed and showed her elegance and politeness as an experienced noble.

"I can give what that stupid Victoria can't. Even though she became the Queen of the Aurora Kingdom, she still can't give a decision to the opposition noble family, right?"

"I can provide a gap to take care of the opposition nobles quickly and cleanly. Of course it involves all the main assets and authority owned by the Duke family."

"I don't want to brag about this but all those assets are already in my grasp after doing the cleaning up before."

With a confident smile and having assets that can support me with a quick movement response, it was enough to shake me to give a bottle of precious Elixir to the Duchess and make her return to being a young girl like what happened to the Queen of the Aurora Kingdom.

"I understand, maybe it's worth what I get for a price like this. Don't regret it later, Duchess," I said in a cold tone and gave a sharp glare.

I immediately accessed the Yurification Shop and saw that some of the items being sold were inaccessible, especially those from another world.

When my attention was drawn to a bottle of Elixir that was the Duchess's main goal, I noticed every smile that was etched on her face.

Unlike a grown woman who hesitated in making a decision, it was the smile of a grown woman who was firm in every decision she made.

Seeing that extraordinary determination, I bought a bottle of Elixir which was originally a gift of intimacy for me who was able to do a synchronization attack with Mio.

By exchanging Yurification Points and a bottle of Elixir, a golden yellow magic circle formation appeared before my eyes. This familiar flow of magic made me feel traces of my perverted Goddess's magical energy.

I don't know what my Goddess is doing, it seems like she is busy developing a blessing that contains a mixture of the three Goddesses who have communicated with me.

I just need to wait for the results of their cooperation and accept the blessings given by them.

Tuuukkk...

The Elixir bottle containing a glowing light blue liquid caught the attention of the Duchess and everyone in the room.

The glowing light blue liquid looked like the highest peak of a potion circulating in the Aurora Kingdom area.

"Ah, is this the Elixir potion that cured Princess Anastasia and made the Queen of the Aurora Kingdom young to become a pet of a young girl in the past?" asked the Duchess without blinking and her eyes were fixed on the Elixir potion in front of her eyes.

"As you said, Duchess...." I replied without moving much and enjoying every facial reaction made by the Duchess.

Mio who knew about the Elixir potion began to act strangely especially with her shaking body and her small whispers that I could hear.

"A love rival between me and Lily-sama again? Uuuhh... My Master is an expert at charming every woman who will submit to her..." Mio grumbled softly while letting out whispers that were heard in my ears.

Uhm, what does that mean?

Isn't this just making the Duchess under my control?

I have no intention of adding another girl after Evelyn and Jeanne were caught in the Ritual Linked that is connected to the Yurification System blessing.

Do I look like a woman who always makes a love rival for every woman who is connected to the Ritual Linked?

I don't know.

I don't feel like that.

At least until now, I have tried to give fair love attention to every woman who is connected to my Ritual Linked.

Kraakk...

The Duchess suddenly stood up from her chair, making Mio, Aiko, and Sirius who were standing start to be alert to her every movement.

With light footsteps and an elegant attitude, I could see the Duchess walking towards me and kneeling in front of me.

"Lily-sama... at least allow me to give a great respect as one of your useful pets," said the Duchess suddenly while kneeling in front of me.

"Eh?" I couldn't react any further after the Duchess said the words that made everyone in this room stunned.

In a surprising situation like this, the Duchess immediately kissed my dirty shoes, making some of her personal guards surprised.

Chuuppp...

Seeing her kissing her lips on my dirty shoes, it seemed like I had to prepare to get a new pet again after a long time.

After giving such a respectful kiss, I had to make an embarrassing decision by giving an honorable pet title to the Duchess.

I, who was carried away by this strange situation, immediately stood up and took the Elixir potion.

"Stand up... Duchess..." I said in a cold tone to hold back my embarrassment.

By opening the seal of the Elixir bottle in my hand, I started to drink some of its contents and stored it in my mouth before giving it to the Duchess.

Smootthh...

Squuiisshh...

By giving a kiss that made the Duchess drink the Elixir potion in my mouth, it seems like my Yurification System blessing worked quickly to consider this a kiss that formed a Linked Ritual.
