(20) Returning home

The next morning, Lucas didn't wake up Hailene and moved to the bathroom. She was more exhausted than him and it was doubtful whether she could move around in her current state too.

It was Tuesday, and Lucas remembered that there was a famous event today. He saw it in the top articles, the top guild joined hands and would start their raid to a SS-rank dungeon today. 

'The waypoint to other worlds opens up after a while when SSS rank dungeons appear. I should enjoy my time in this world, then begin a journey to conquer the female leads on other planets too.' Lucas looked forward to meeting with the protagonist he played with in harem master. 

Lucas slept only for five to four hours, but he felt refreshed. His body's requirement for sleep had dropped. 

"Haaa...." Lucas relaxed his body in the mildly hot water that hit his body. The musky scent covering his body slowly washed away. 

Finishing the bath, Lucas ordered a light breakfast by calling the reception and then looked at the clock. 

8:00 Am

Lucas called Syuzia and began instructing her: "Order the servants that move around the mansion, they will deliver the food directly to our room." 

Syuzia heard him seriously before asking: "When will Papa return?" 

Lucas answered with no hesitation: "Within an hour." 

"Okay, take care," Syuzia spoke with slight embarrassment. 

Feeling the worry in her voice, Lucas said with a slight smile too: "You take care too."

Beep!

Finishing the call, Lucas looked through the comments on his Wibers website. Being one of the most famous platforms, it gathered a lot of attention. 

Lucas's video gained tremendous attention. 

'7 million views and 900,000 subscribers...That's a lot.' Lucas's eyes widened. 

It had not even been a full day, this amount of attention could only be called astounding. 

Throughout the comment section, people already complained about how there was only one video. 

"Hmm?" A particular comment caught Lucas's attention. 

{"This is a little too perfect. His hand moved in perfect sync with the notes, but I still doubt that this might be edited. I mean, why is such a talented person only coming out now?"}

This comment climbed to the top, catching much negative attention. People who could understand Lucas's talent roasted this comment with toxicity. 

'...I was already expecting this, hence I brought the music composing supreme mastery, I wonder how they will react to my next video.' Lucas smiled with contempt. He didn't bother responding to many comments this time. 

Checking the mailbox, Lucas already found dozens of offers to sign a contract with them. 

'I should think about what kind of career I will pursue before signing a contract. Being an idol might be good, but then it would narrow down my reach.' Lucas's eyes narrowed as he looked at the window sitting on the soft couch. 

'Acting might be a better choice. Being a freelancer has many benefits for me, I can exchange skills from the system, so I have to build a network in accordance with it.' 

Ding~

As Lucas lost himself in thought, the waiter arrived with breakfast. It was two veggie omelets along with bacon. 

Having already paid the bill online while ordering, Lucas just took the breakfast and sent away the waiter. 

"Hey, wake up now." Lucas pinched Hailene's cheek while holding the tray in one hand. 

"Umm..." Hailene's eyes fluttered open, and the sight of sun rays and Lucas's calm face entered her sight. Giving a blank look for a second, her face sobered up instantly. 

"What time is it?!" Hailene got up quickly. 

"Eight in the morning." Lucas passed on a plate to her and sat down on the bed relaxedly. 

"I-I have to go! The academy has quite a strict attendance requirement..." Hailene explained to not make Lucas misunderstand.

"You don't have to explain it to me now. Eat something first." Lucas spoke while showing some favor, Hailene was his property now after all. 

"Thank you..." Hailene felt flustered for no reason talking with Lucas. Just looking at his face made her heart beat like crazy. 

'No, No, no. I have slept with so many men before, so why is this only happening now? His body and skill are just... Pathological.' Hailene could predict the kind of person Lucas was with his experience.

But what could she do? 

Who wouldn't be fascinated by his face?

In the end, Hailene blamed it all on Lucas's face and ate breakfast. She felt slight pain in her lower body as she moved, however, it was not unbearable. 

After taking a bath, Hailene walked out of the bathroom, finding Lucas fully dressed up. 

"Want me to do your hair?" Lucas naturally offered. 

"Please do." Hailene wore the clothes laying in one corner of the room and sat before the mirror in the wardrobe. 

Looking at Lucas's hand moving in an experienced manner, Hailene was surprised. It couldn't be compared to a professional, but it was still very astounding. 

'A true woman killer....' Hailene thought wryly. Her hair was short, so just a simple fixing was enough. She began tidying her clothes and applied light makeup next.

"Want me to drop you at the academy?" Lucas offered and straightened his clothes while looking in the mirror. 

"No, thank you for the offer though." Hailene rejected it after thinking for a second, she didn't want to disturb Lucas much. 

Hearing her answer, Lucas didn't force her either, there were not many benefits to sticking to her now. If she were a female lead, he would have offered assistance again.

'Though she loves me, I can't and don't wanna go out with her, showing a couple relationships. Marrying is a restriction for every man.' Lucas wanted to appear single for a long time, it would make winning female leads easier. 

He could just tell them about others when the affection rate reaches 100, blind love. 

"I will be going then." Lucas flashed a last smile at Hailene and left with no hesitation through the door. 

"W-wait a sec!" Hailene hopped toward Lucas, remembering something.

"What?" Lucas turned his head back.

"Let's exchange contacts."

"Alright." Lucas responded with a smile, 'I almost forgot about that...Exchanging contacts in a one night stand was stupid after all.'

.....

Collecting the car's key from the reception, Lucas went to the underground parking slot. 

Finding the McLaren in a single glance, Lucas entered it with no hesitation. 

Vroom!

Opening the mobile again, Lucas set the destination to his house. 

Having returned in McLaren, Lucas gathered a lot of attention. He would stare out of the window sometimes, seeing everyone's jealous faces to enjoy himself. 

'I want to make a new piece quickly, along with my piano attainment, I am sure I can make something extraordinary. My intuition is telling me that.' Lucas fastened the car's pace. 

The piano would arrive around the afternoon, but he could still make a piano piece at this time. His motivation rose rapidly, Lucas didn't notice the jealous gaze, which had a tinge of disdain in it. The gaze belonged to a young man with dark eyes comparable to an endless abyss.
