CHAPTER 75: CHAPTER 75- ESCAPADES ON HORSEBACK

"Fufu, what’s the problem? The horse is big enough for the three of us. Besides, young master Arthur is a child; he won’t take much space" Miranda spoiled his behaviour even more.

Seeing that there was no stopping things now, Reinhardt sighed and got on top of the horse too. Their seating position was as follows— Arthur was in the front, followed by Miranda hugging him like a child that he was.

Lastly, seated on the back was Reinhardt, trying to keep the horse balanced.

"My Lady, please hold onto the reins tightly," he instructed.

The lady as advised, grabbed onto the reins and slowly pulled on it. At the same time, the warhorse who was given the command to go, neighed, and its powerful body which was like the engine of a supercar, roared to life.

It kicked off. The motion caused Miranda to align her back completely in froint of Reinhardt.

"My Lady, are you alright?"...

"Y-Yeah" As could be seen from her face, she didn’t think that the horse would be this fast even with three people on top of its back.

Arthur and Reinhardt used to horse riding, knew how to keep their postures. However, Miranda was a newbie through and through.

"Pull the reins to the side you want it to go. If you want it to stop, lightly kick it on the chest once"...

"I understand"...

With that, the horse riding lesson officially began. Reinhardt would, from time to time, give advice or intervene depending on the situation.

"Wow, so this is how it feels to ride a horse. Can we go a little faster?"...

"Going any more faster would be..." He was trying his best to keep the [Endless Ardor] in check. However, the lady wasn’t giving him any break.

Thanks to the bodies sticking so close and rubbing together, he already got a boner. What’s more, with time it only got worse. Miranda’s ass was so curvy and soft that every time they touched it made his thoughts go wild.

"Ahn~... Yes... Well, wouldn’t it feel more good if the horse went faster?"

It was unknown what she meant, but going any faster would be bad.

"Let’s stop here."

As if throwing him a saving grace, Verdia interjected. She had been keeping silent for quite some time now.

She wanted to say something from the time Miranda requested Reinhardt to teach her horse riding. Finally, when she heard the other party wanting to ride faster, she could no longer keep it to herself and interjected.

"It’s already late, the sun is starting to set. How about we go back to the mansion?"

This was just an excuse to make her look like she was not jealous when in fact, she didn’t want Miranda’s body touching Reinhardt anymore.

"R-Right, let’s stop here for today." Grabbing on to the life saving grace, he quickly ended the session here and got down before things escalated any further.

"Too bad, it was just starting to get exciting, right young master Arthur?"...

"Hm? Ah, I rode warhorse many times before. It’s better not to anger Mom. She won’t give me my afternoon snacks otherwise".

Once Miranda and Arthur also got down, they made their way back to the mansion. Just before they departed from the stables, Verdia glanced at Reinhardt. It was unknown what she was thinking, but the latter could feel her piercing gaze drilling into him.

Once they were back at the mansion, Raymond and Priest Rob greeted them. The two relic fanatics were still engaged in a heated debate.

"Sigh... clearly Lord Raymond is not seeing the full picture. It may not be that great, but the relic has far more potential and versatility," Argued priest Rob.

"No, no... how can that be. No matter how many uses you have, if it’s not effective then obviously its ranking should be low," Raymond madea counterpoint.

"Husband, what are the two of you discussing?" Miranda gracefully made her way beside her husband.

"We were just talking about some relic, my love. How about you? Have you finished touring the estate?"...

"Son, I hope you showed Lady Miranda around and made her feel comfortable?"

At Raymond’s question, Miranda glanced at Reinhardt with her mischievous eyes.

"Oh, he made me feel more than comfortable, Your Grace."

Her words held double meaning, but other than Reinhardt, nobody could guess it.

"Haha, if you say so. My son is exceptional in many things. However, he can also be dull in certain aspects," Raymond laughed proudly.

"It was good to see you all. If you will excuse us, we should move out now."

Priest Rob got up from his seat. The sun was setting down, it was time for them to return.

"It has been a long time since I had a talk with you, my friend. How about you and your wife stay the night here? I still have a lot of relics I want to show you" Raymond insisted that they spend the night here.

"How can that be? We don’t want to impose"...

"It’s you and me. What impose are you talking about?"...

"Husband, let’s stay when the duke is insisting so much. Besides, I want to spend some time with everyone too".

On the insistence of his wife, Priest Rob sighed, finally relenting. And so, it was decided that Priest Rob and his wife would be staying here.

"Sebastian, prepare a hearty dinner for our guests. Also open the vault, I want to show my guests the spoils of our war against the demons".

"As you wish, my lord," saying that, Sebastian disappeared.

"I’m feeling a little tired, maybe I’ll take a bath before dinner" Miranda stretched her arms. The servants showed her to the bathhouse.

Raymond and Rob were busy with their talks, and Arthur had sneaked away at some time, leaving only Verdia and Reinhardt here in an awkward and strained situation.

"Excuse me" The latter also tried to slip away. However, before he could, Verdia stopped him.

"A minute, I have something to talk with you"...
