Talent Awakening: I, the Weakest Awakened, Start with Dragonfire Spell

Chapter 61 Chapter61-Deep Satisfaction

Howard had no desire to argue with the mentor.

After all, as a mentor, Daniel wouldn't partake in the distribution of any spoils, so it wouldn't affect them.

On the contrary, should there be a high-level BOSS within the Ruins, having Daniel around might actually be a boon!

Realizing this, Howard promptly responded with a smile, "If the mentor wishes to join, why would we students object? The Ruins are related to the legendary vampires, with monsters likely being over level 30!"

"Vampires? Aren't they mythical creatures? They actually exist!" Daniel was equally taken aback, adding, "The Ruins must have been there for quite a while. You all must be cautious! I won't intervene until a monster appears that you can't handle."

"We got it," Caitlin grinned, "Mentor, I doubt you'll even have a chance to step in! With the teamwork between Howard, Glyn, and me, even a level 60 monster might not pose much of a challenge. A level 30 Ruins doesn't seem too tough!"

Aisha cautioned, "Caitlin, never underestimate the monsters within the Ruins."

"Aisha is right!" Daniel said, shaking his head. "Sadly, Caitlin, your life has been too smooth. If only you could shed this flaw, your potential might rival that of the headmaster."

Caitlin chose not to respond. Glyn quickly chimed in with a jovial tone, "With the mentor joining us, our journey to the Castle of Vampires Ruins will undoubtedly be without issues! Perhaps, we might even clear it within a day."

Only Abby, with her sparkling wide eyes, fixed her gaze intently on Howard. Abby was no fool. She vividly remembered that the key to the Castle of Vampires Ruins had initially been taken away by Carlos Bartel. When she recalled the assault on Carlos Bartel and his subsequent demise, she immediately realized the culprit was Howard!

Biting her lip, Abby glanced at Glyn and the others who were excitedly discussing the Ruins. She remained silent, fearful of misspeaking.

She knew she couldn't let this secret out. If Daniel were to discover that Howard had murdered a fellow student, he would surely be expelled.

The Alliance upheld strict rules. Regardless of Howard or even a genius with an awakened SSS-level talent, exceptions were not permitted.

...

After deciding on the time for their Ruins expedition, Howard and the group bid Daniel farewell, heading home to pack.

Howard had it easy.

As an orphan, he only needed to prepare items for the Ruins expedition and luggage for his trip to Adia.

This made things simpler compared to Abby and Caitlin.

So, when Howard noticed Abby passing by her own home without stopping and silently following him, he immediately understood she had something to say.

Quickly thinking, Howard made an excuse to part ways with Caitlin and then took Abby back to his place.

"Howard... Did Carlos meet his end at your hands?" Abby cautiously inquired.

It wasn't that Abby was concerned about Carlos Bartel; rather, she was worried about the consequences that might befall Howard.

In Abby's heart, whether Carlos Bartel lived or died had no bearing on her. All that mattered was that Howard remained unharmed.

"Yes," Howard confirmed with a nod. "Do you recall in the Bat Cave dungeon, when we separated and took different paths? Carlos's guard, on his orders, tried to kill me. But he ended up being killed by me instead."

"I acted because I was concerned that Carlos would continue to target me after returning home," Howard admitted.

Upon hearing Howard's confession, Abby's anxiety flared, "Did you leave any evidence behind? The Bartel family has significant influence! Maybe I should give you some money, and you can skip the Ruins expedition. Head straight to Adia. Within Adia, the Bartels won't have the means to harm you."

Laughing heartily, Howard responded, "Don't fret. The Bartel family won't trace it back to me. We absolutely must go on this expedition to the Ruins!"

Feeling Abby's genuine concern, he affectionately tousled her hair, softly adding, "The Ruins from the last century surely conceal astonishing treasures. We can't miss out!"

Even those possessing supreme talent can't accelerate their growth too quickly.

After all, synthesizing items requires vast amounts of equipment and skills, all of which require substantial funds to acquire.

Descending into dungeons, exploring the Ruins – these are the quickest ways to amass wealth. Furthermore, one's level is crucial.

Even if you possess a Supreme Artifact, if your level isn't up to par, you won't stand a chance against higher-ranked warriors.

Understanding Howard's determination, Abby relented, "Alright, I'll keep this a secret. Just be careful not to slip up."

"Abby, you've been so good to me. How can I ever repay you?" Sensing Abby's affection for him, Howard, in a tender moment, drew her close, his hands beginning to wander.

"Mmm..." Abby playfully rolled her eyes.

As she tried to pull away, Howard leaned in, sealing her lips with a passionate kiss.

Before she could react, his agile tongue ventured into her mouth.

For a moment, Abby melted into Howard's embrace, letting out involuntary murmurs.

However, when Howard's hands started venturing beneath her clothing, caressing her delicate back and curves, she snapped back to reality, covering herself and exclaiming, "Howard, not today! I have to go home!"

Howard, ever the gentleman, paused, grinning, "What do you mean 'not today'? I just wanted to hold you. What were you thinking, you mischievous girl?"

Abby's cheeks flushed crimson with embarrassment. In a mix of mock anger and playfulness, she bit Howard lightly and pouted. To Howard, her display was undeniably enticing.

Deciding not to push further, Howard chatted with Abby for a bit and then escorted her home

Abby was still untouched, and if Howard were to become intimate with her now, her parents would surely notice. It might be better to wait a few more days. Once they're in Adia, he suspected Abby might offer herself without him needing to make the first move.

However, with these thoughts in mind, restraint became quite challenging.

Without any hesitation, Howard headed directly to Margaret's residence.

Of course, his visit to Margaret wasn't purely for release; as he was soon to leave Saint City, he also needed to discuss future plans with her.

Margaret was eagerly awaiting him at home.

Almost the instant Howard pushed open the door, Margaret leapt up, throwing herself into his arms.

"Darling, you're finally here!" Margaret exclaimed, holding Howard tightly.

Before she could continue, her face darkened, and she remarked with a hint of jealousy, "You smell of another woman. Who have you been with?"

In this survival-of-the-fittest world, there wasn't a strict concept of monogamy.

A powerful man could have multiple women and vice versa; a strong woman could have numerous male consorts.

Under such circumstances, Howard didn't feel guilty.

He chuckled and replied, "I just escorted Abby home. What, are you jealous of her?"

"I..." Margaret's eyes widened, and she retorted with a hint of playfulness, "I was here first. She should be calling me 'sister'. If I weren't a teacher at Soulspark Academy, our relationship would have been public by now."

"Don't worry, you're still my number one." As Howard spoke, his gaze dropped appreciatively to Margaret's ample bust.

Apart from Caitlin, Margaret's figure was arguably the best he had ever seen.

Noticing his gaze, Margaret was far from shy; instead, she proudly arched her back.

Suddenly, Margaret remarked, "I never expected Jay to be capable of such brutal acts. However, with his demise, you no longer have to worry about being targeted."

"And Abby, that girl, to speak such words for your sake! Thankfully, Holy Abyss Academy agreed to her terms in their eagerness to enroll her."

Margaret was unaware of Howard's awakening to the supreme talent and hadn't witnessed his strength firsthand.

Like many others, she believed Howard's acceptance into Holy Abyss Academy was due to Abby's influence.

Howard didn't clarify. After all, Margaret loved him for who he was, not for his power.

Smiling, he asked, "Abby and I will head to Adia in three days. When do you plan to go, and under what identity?"

"You don't need to worry about this, I have my own ingenious plan!" Margaret's hand suddenly grasped Howard's dick. "Margaret rubbed through the clothes, tilting her neck even more, caressing Howard's chin with her lips,whispering, "Darling, before you leave, fuck me deeply, and please don't pity me! "

"After all, we won't be able to see each other for a while! This time, you have to satisfy me thoroughly!"

Howard was already fuming inside, and with Margaret's provocation, how could he possibly hold back? He let out a low growl and carried Margaret into the bedroom!
