Sam had be comprehding the Sage-grade techniques that he received from Adriana for three days before erging from his indoor cultivation.
On the third day, King Shun of the Luminae Dynasty, along with his wife and daughter, ca to visit the Hailstorm clan regarding political matters.
During the first day of Sam's cultivation, he sat cross-legged, his figure hovering one and a half feet above the g, with an op scroll releasing mysterious ergies before his face. His eyes were op but emotionless, fixed on the scroll, rapidly absorbing insights.
Lora Frir, the maid Sam had be eyeing, quietly tered the cave. She appeared before him, surprised by Sam's rapid progress.
'It's only be a few hours since he ca here, but he's already tered the comprehsion state and is rapidly gaining insights into the techniques. Young master sure is talted,' she thought.
Choosing not to disturb Sam, Lora found a comfortable spot a little distance away and sat cross-legged. She quietly observed Sam, feeling a sse of calmness as she watched his focused expression. Reflecting on the familiar feelings she expericed in his presce, Lora couldn't help but sigh.
"Looking at his face like this calms ," she muttered to herself. The mory of the strong feelings she had wh in Sam's presce resurfaced—the familiarity and the desire to be close to him were stronger than ever.
"I wonder if he likes the way I like him," Lora sighed, contemplating her relationship with Sam.
"I really want to understand why I'm feeling the way I'm feeling towards him; that's why I accepted so fast wh the matriarch asked to beco the young master's personal maid. Maybe if I'm close to him, I might understand these weird feelings," Lora pondered.
She didn't rest the familiarity and the myriad of feelings she expericed a Sam; it all felt peculiar to her.
There was sothing about Sam that she couldn't ignore, prompting her desire to get closer to him. Now, it had led to her developing an infatuation with Sam.
Guine affection started to grow for Sam, especially wh he beca flirty and invaded her personal space, sothing she surprisingly joyed.
Now, she found herself wondering if there could be sothing more with Sam.
This curiosity and the budding feelings were the reasons Lora quickly agreed wh Adriana asked if she would be willing to beco the personal maid of her grandson.
Just as she was speaking to herself in her mind, Sam, feeling so kind of connection, was disturbed from his comprehsion.
He wasn't angry; he was just surprised that this weird feeling he got from Lora was strong ough to pull him out of his comprehsion state.
Their eyes t, and Sam asked, "Lora? What are you doing here? Did my grandma summon ?"
"No." Lora paused for a second, th continued, avoiding eye contact, "...the matriarch asked to be your personal maid from now on."
"She asked you to be my personal maid?"
"Yes."
"..."
"Why did you agree?"
"I-I..." Lora felt her throat go dry. She didn't want to admit that she was curious about him and agreed to be his personal maid.
Seeing her red, embarrassed face, Sam felt a sudd urge to tease her. He grabbed her by the arm and pulled her into his embrace, making her sit on his lap, his hands wrapped a her waist firmly, holding her in place.
Lora, still surprised, didn't offer any resistance. If anything, she felt embarrassed and anticipative of what might happ next.
"Y-Young master, what are you doing?" she asked, feeling more embarrassed as she saw how close Sam's face was to her.
Looking at that otherworldly, handso, manly face, staring at his lips, she felt a strong urge to kiss, but she controlled herself.
Sam, being an empath, knew what she was thinking, and he smiled proudly.
Taking a second to observe her—her layered long black hair, her night-like eyes, her juicy lips—he wasn't far off from kissing her. However, he refrained because he wanted to talk with her about sothing.
Touching her fair cheeks, Sam asked, "Lora, tell sothing."
"A-Anything you ask, young master."
"Have you...do you feel anything strange or weird in my presce, like a familiarity that we have known each other before?" Sam asked casually, but his tone was firm, as if it was important.
Lora was surprised. She didn't expect him to ask the sa thing she was here trying to find out about. "Does he also feel the sa weird familiarity I feel towards him? Is that why he's getting close to ?"
Suddly, she felt like her world was destroyed.
Sam, feeling her thoughts, hastily clarified, "Don't think too much. Yes, this weird familiarity got interested in you first, but the only reason I wanted to get close to you was that I guinely liked you."
"...I-Is that true?" Lora asked in a mosquito voice. Inside, she was feeling butterflies flying a. She felt so happy that he was really attracted to her.
"Yes. What I said is the truth... But before we talk about us, answer my earlier question. Do you feel that weird connection betwe us?"
Suppressing her excitemt, she nodded her head like a chick. "Yes, yes. I do feel those weird feelings... Every ti I look at your face, I just feel a strong urge to be on your side. I want to submit to you. I've never felt anything like this before...
Do you feel that way towards too?"
Sam replied, "Yes, I could feel sothing similar as well," and th fell into silce. It was unknown what he was thinking.
Lora, still in his arms, waited patitly for him to continue. As if rearranging his thoughts, Sam let out a sigh.
"Lora, why are you working as a maid in our clan? You are a direct descdant of the Lycan Progitor and also the Princess of the Lupinoria Kingdom. I can't imagine a princess of a kingdom working as a maid in another noble clan on another contint. Just what happed? Tell your backstory."
Sam had always be curious ever since he laid his eye on Lora for the first ti. How could a princess of a kingdom work as a simple maid? It was unrealistic. Th what did it an? It ant sothing happed, and Sam wanted to know the real reasons behind her.
Lora was dumbfounded. She didn't expect that he would be interested in her life. It made her ev more affectionate toward Sam, but at the sa ti, bad mories, which she had hidd in the deepest part of her mind, resurfaced.
Her face darked, her expression turned cruel, and killing intt oozed out of her body, colliding a Sam like a tsunami. It wasn't directed toward Sam, but he could still feel the killing intt in the air.
Unable to control her anger, her dark black eyes turned neon blue, her face took on a wild furious expression, her werewolf features beca visible.
Her skin took on a silvery fur, a long tail with the sa fur grew behind her, her fit body grew more defined, and her height increased a few inches. Sharp and defined claws appeared on her hand, and her teeth grew fangs that seed like they could tear apart the sky itself.
It wasn't for Sam being a dragon; her claws would have easily pierced his skin just by touching him a little. Ev now, it would pierce his skin if she applied a little pressure.
