Chapter 58: Checking out Erica
"It's true, we need an Archer and few tankers aside from us three to put up a fight, Sir Ekaros."
...
The men helped themselves up and started to discuss the countermeasures for their next attempt. Ekaros only laughed at their modesty, he knew he had long exceeded their level of strength.
Even though, Ekaros was only at peak of level two, he had great proficiency with reinforce skill, his basic boost had exceeded the two hundred percent mark. It was good enough to battle a level three ki warrior and survive against them.
His goal of getting the title of Viscount was getting closer and closer. With the constant weakening of Terias, and the lack of desire in him for the noble title, Ekaros was sure of achieving his goal.
He had made plans to go back home, to Terias. He wanted to finally confront his brother and get the province under his control.
If Terias did not mind giving up the seat of a noble, then there would be no need of useless bloodshed.
...
Ralph and Erica arrived at the Viscount's place, guided by the patrol unit of Viscount. Rest of the members in their group were guided to the scene of crime to gather clues.
They had left the inn in Toki village early in the morning. The general plan of course would be to follow the crime scene and search for the murderer.
However, their plans had a few changes, Viscount's place was really close from the scene of crime. So, Ercia had decided to meet up with the Viscount as well.
Also, there was the information that Terias himself was present at the scene of crime and had done the investigation.
They trusted Terias and his method of investigation due to his fame, and thus decided to meet with him for the evidence.
...
"Hello sir, I am Erica. The current group leader of the Group three of royal forces and this is Ralph, my second in command." Erica greeted Terias and introduced herself and Ralph
"Greetings, Miss Erica. You look as beautiful as your mother." Terias responded to her, her beautiful white hair and toned body appeared lascivious.
He did not hold back and complimented her beauty, while he only gave a nod at Ralph for greeting.
To Terias, she looked a level above Alice in beauty. She had a beautiful face with the perfect curves gained from heavy physical training.
She was dressed in a shirt and pant, nothing extra fancy except for a bracelet like jwellery on her left hand.
Her body was full of curves, the shirt had its buttons undone to reduce the pressure on the buttons. While her pants looked to be made of leather and accentuated her curvy ass properly.
...
"Do you happen to know her, my mother?" Erica asked, curious if the noble in front of her had any connection with her birth mother.
The man appeared to be in his fifties but his physique was well trained and he could very well be in his thirties or forties.
The constant increase of his lifespan by the ying yang technique had contributed a lot to his current appearance. His appearance had subtly changed from a sixty year old to a forty year old now.
She knew that Terias was a talented noble and had quite the fame in his ranks. It was possible that he might have known his young mother in her youth.
"Haha, Let's just say that i have seen her in her prime years." Terias replied kindly, he had said it to her as a compliment. He had no memory of the Viscount ever mentioning Erica's mother's beauty.
"Let's sit, I assume you have come here to inquire about the recent case." Terias pointed at the table and chairs which was prepared for their chat.

While Terias explained what had happened and answered their questions, his two maids Tina and Maya had arrived to serve snacks to the guest. They came and gone after doing their task.
Erica used her left hand to graciously drink the tea served by the maids while Ralph did not touch his cup.
Terias felt slightly disrespected by this, but the other guy was a part of Royal forces which was above if not similar to his noble position.
He fully concentrated on Erica's beauty, her voluptuous body and explained to her what he had seen. He carefully emitted the parts about his butler's involvement and made the story as believable as possible.
...
'Does he not know that i can see him looking lecherously at Miss Erica?' Ralph thought in his mind while he stared at Terias who was fully immersed in his storytelling and Erica's cleavage.
He understood that the guy had no useful information and like most nobles, he was also full of lust and greed. He decided to end their discussion and rejected the invitation to stay there.
Erica had felt the gaze on her cleavage, her shirt was a loose and comfortable one. She wore it with two buttons undone and she was liking the special attention from Terias.
She was slightly embarrassed but it felt good to be seen as a woman. Also, she could not do much to hide her boobs, they were too big and could not be hidden.
Terias was daring and was confidently gazing into her cleavage. She wanted freedom and this felt good to her.
...
"As Ralph had said, we are short on time and will be going after the criminal. Thank you for your hospitality." Erica said as she had understood the hints from Raplh's words. She too, did not want to waste her time enjoying snacks.
They rushed back to the scene of crime accompanied by Terias. He had decided to guide them, how could he leave a beauty like Erica alone with a prude like Ralph?
Erica and Ralph rode their own special horses while Terias accompanied them with his own personal horse. He wanted to travel by the carriage but time was of essence.
Good for him, he decided to accompany them by his horse. He could literally see the breasts jumping out from Erica's shirt almost every second. He never imagined that seeing a woman horse riding could be this fun.
The most important thing was her bracelet, it was not a jewellery but an artifact, an artifact he knew very well.
They reached the scene of crime very quickly, much to Terias's disappointment, his butler John had aided the group in their investigation and they had found a lead already.
