Chapter 152: 149: Settling Conflicts

Lensa, the sleeping beauty was finally out of her self-confinement.

The ice still covered her most sensitive parts but the rest of her body was now out in the open. And she was also showing signs of waking up.

Devon immediately called in the maids at the standby and told them to take care of his niece. The maids created a makeshift partition made of curtains around Lensa before getting her to wear clothes. When they were done, Lensa had already woken up completely and was wearing a nice-looking dress.

Lensa seemed perplexed by her current situation. Then she remembered what had happened between her and "Ken". Her eyes became moist when she saw the reason for her heartache standing right in front of her.

"Ken brat, your work is done here. We'll summon you when you are needed. Now get the fu*ck out."

Devon immediately rushed to his niece and embraced her before saying that. He didn't even pay a glance at Lensa's reaction.

The elf girl was looking between Ken and Eren who was standing not very far from the white knight. She felt that she was missing the only piece of a puzzle to complete it but her abrupt awakening had forced the piece to grow legs and go into hiding.

Eren breathed a sigh of relief internally after looking at Lensa's reaction. Her bewilderment meant that his cover was not blown yet

"Ace Devon, I think you are forgetting what we had discussed. I told you I'd be happy to help Lensa as long as I get to talk to her. Now that she has woken up, I want to remind you of my part of the deal."

Ken replied to Devon's fuc*k-you attitude with a stoic face. He wasn't afraid of the guy anymore because it seemed that half of his guilt had vanished into thin air after the elf's girl awakening.

"Brat, I told you…"

"Wait, uncle Dev. I want to talk… to Ken as well. But before that Let me get freshen up first. There are so many confusing things filled to the brim in my mind right now."

Lensa replied before Devon could throw Ken out of the Carren Manor. The uncle took a long sigh before agreeing to his niece's demands. He could never say no to her.

"Now that Lensa has woken up, half of our troubles are put to rest. I'm sure that is the case for you as well. We'll let the two houses come to a mutual understanding now while ensuring their scions' safety.

Eren and I will take our leaves now."

Almera spoke for the first time after coming to the hall. She was relieved that a major disaster had been averted.

And she was sure that the two houses would fix a political marriage to fix this mess up nice and easy without creating a fuss that would be detrimental to both of their images. But her request to take leave was politely rejected by the sleeping beauty herself:

"Aah! I can guess what must have happened. Ace Almera, please stay here for a while so that I can talk to all of you."

Lensa sneakily looked at Eren while she said that. For some reason, her mind wanted her to eye this seemingly unknown boy instead of looking at the real cause of her troubles. And she couldn't understand why. That's why she wanted to talk to Eren to understand more about him.

But she had already realized how things must have turned out because of her peculiar state. She would have to tie the knot to Ken in the future if things proceed as per their fixed course. That's why she couldn't approach a strange man out in the open anymore. At least not so unabashedly. The elf girl was very worried about her family's image after all.

"Al… alright. We'll wait for you to get ready. But please know that we are on a mission here in this city. And Adept Marla might summon us anytime. So we'll have to answer her call if and when that happens."

Almera relented while stating her condition. Lensa and Devon agreed to the same and arranged a living place for them to wait. Dan was silent while all this took place. He was seemingly looking at the void as if trying to think about the most mysterious thing in the world.

Then he looked at Eren and narrowed his eyes before shaking his head in denial. The guy disappeared from his place soon after. Nobody knew where he went.

**********************

Ken and Lensa talked for a long while after she had gotten fresh. Almera and Eren gave them the privacy they needed and waited outside the room.

The white knight explained his side of the story and Lensa had to admit he didn't have any ill intentions. She then explained her side of the story which the former listened to keenly.

It seemed that Ken was the most ideal guy she could ask for. And she had already slept with him to know that he was really good in bed too. All things considered, that was one of the most important criteria for any woman to select her life partner on.

But there was something in her mind that was bothering her. She didn't voice her opinions in fear that her future husband might get offended by it. But she wanted to talk to Eren for now.

So she summoned the two waiting outside when she had a detailed conversation with Ken. The guy also seemed happy that his lady-to-be was this cooperative. He had already told her that it was a yes from his side. The ball was in her court now which the lady tackled by delaying her decision to say anything tactfully.

"Hi, there. Lensa. Hope you are feeling all better now. And I also hope that you and Ken become a thing so that the incident doesn't devolve into a family feud."

Almera laid bare what she had on her mind. The elf girl seemed open-minded and pragmatic enough for her to do that.

Lensa talked with Almera for a short while. They both smiled after knowing each others' likes and dislikes. The ranking status between the two was kept aside and the two women had a brief girl talk.

Lensa then made a strange demand:

"Um… I wish to talk to Eren privately. I want to know more about Ken, you see. And who better than his teammate to tell me about a few things regarding him that even he doesn't know or can't tell me about? Hehe!

Will... will that be okay?"
