Aarons has been having a pretty good time these past few days.

After the entanglement in his heart no longer existed, his relationship with Keliya quickly heated up.

If it weren't for the fact that the Yumenhua required the authority of a deputy captain or above to operate properly, Her Royal Highness the Princess would even want to move directly into Aarons' house.

Although Jiangyue could return to the ship, the work in the laboratory could not be put on hold - so after the two discussed the matter, Keliya finally decided that Jiangyue would take over for one day every five days.

"After all, we have to leave time for others, Teacher Jiangyue."

Everyone expressed their appreciation for Her Royal Highness the Princess's magnanimity.

Even the most difficult Xia Ye made it clear that "considering the needs of public occasions, only Her Royal Highness the Princess is qualified to become the young master's wife", so it is unlikely that a Shura Karma-level war will break out in Aarons' family.

——But there is no end to these small fights.

……

"Damn spider, you're trying to sneak into the master's bedroom again!"

"Objection. I need to regularly examine my master's physical and mental condition, looking for clues to solve my personality errors."

"Please give some thought to your weight! You sneaked in yesterday and almost crushed the young master to death on the bed!"

Aarons, who had planned to sleep in, got up obediently after hearing the familiar quarrel coming from outside the door.

Ever since the physiological interactions between itself and other people were exposed, the ancient observers who mimicked humans have become very interested in this behavior.

According to her own explanation, she found that she had an abnormal internal drive for this special activity in constructing her own personality. In order to accurately identify the errors in her personality, she began to imitate the behavior of other people.

Of course, her nearly five-ton weight and body structure that was completely different from that of any living creature meant that her attempt ultimately ended in failure.

"Refute. I have submitted an application for entry to the housekeeper Xia Ye and it has been approved. As for the problem of body structure, I have had a technical exchange with the maintenance team leader Jiang Yue and got a preliminary solution."

"What about the weight? Don't you know you can smash right through the floor?"

"Ignore. Please don't keep bringing up the issue of weight to a lady, or I'll consider beating you to the point of being speechless."

Hearing the increasingly tense conversation between the two, Aarons quickly wiped the cold sweat from his head and quickly opened the door.

"Uh... why are you here?"

"Good morning, Master. This idiot was trying to sneak into your room again, so I stopped her."

"Negative. I will knock on the door normally and request entry."

Aarons still hasn't figured out whether the relationship between these two people is good or bad.

But apart from fighting and bickering, Karin and Zhuying would actually communicate with each other about how to use psychic energy - since Zhuying had a completely different understanding of this energy, Karin also learned some application techniques from it.

So Aarons guessed that they were just fooling around like this because they were bored.

"Okay, okay, you two should go down and play with the children when you have time. I have to talk to Xia Ye about something important first, and then I have to go see Teacher Jiangyue."

"Wow... Master, it's as if the two of us are completely useless in this family... Is it really true that we can only learn how to cook?"

"Sad. Looks like I have to go to the kitchen and practice my cooking skills."

No, no, it’s safer for the two of you to go out and fight… If you go into the kitchen, things will really explode!

Watching the two women turn away with some disappointment, Aarons also felt that he might have treated them unfairly.

However, he has already made plans for the next step, and their work in the future may be full of surprises.

……

"Master, I just calculated the funds of our family. You now have more than 400 gold coins in reserve. You can consider setting up your next base of operations."

"Please wait for this for a while, because Her Royal Highness the Princess is also planning this matter. Let's meet in a few days to discuss and then decide how to proceed."

"Understood. What are your plans next?"

The perfect devil secretary still maintained her usual cold expression today, but Aarons discovered that she seemed to have secretly used some makeup - not only was the color of her lips more attractive, but she also occasionally smelled a very pleasant scent when he got close to her.

Even the decoration on clothes became more detailed.

"Hmm...what's this scent?"

"It's the perfume that the old woman made. She gave it to me as a bribe."

"It turned out to be a bribe..."

Although Xia Ye was finding fault with Jiang Yue almost every day, there seemed to be some special tacit understanding between them.

When it comes to serious matters, they not only cooperate with each other efficiently, but also exchange ideas to make up for each other's cognitive blind spots.

"Forget it. I won't be in charge of your business anymore... You just asked me about the plan, right? I do have a preliminary idea now."

"Really? Please tell me in detail—"

After Aarons briefly talked about his vision for the future, Xia Ye began to seriously discuss future plans with him.

——This demon woman who always talks about greed and selfishness, is more inclined to be selfless and devoted in front of Aarons.

"…If this is the arrangement, you really need to discuss it with Her Royal Highness the Princess first."

"Then we'll talk about it in a few days. Also, um... I have a personal question for you."

After a little hesitation, Aarons asked the interpersonal relationship question that had puzzled him.

"You said in front of everyone that day that only Klia could be the legal wife... Is that really okay?"

"Are you concerned about my and Miss Karin's feelings?"

"...So be it."

Although there was no normal emotional interaction, Karin and Xia Ye had already established another level of relationship with me.

It is precisely because of this issue that Aarons wants to know what they are thinking.

"You actually still want to maintain your original sense of morality. You are such a greedy person... But I want to remind you that you have forgotten a key premise."

"What premise?"

"Whether it's me or Miss Karin, we are still aliens after all. We can't leave offspring for you, so we shouldn't fight for that position for both public and private reasons."

——Aarons almost forgot about this question.

Although they look similar to humans, Karin and Xia Ye are actually different species from humans. Even if they can interact physiologically, there is a clear separation in reproduction.

"If you want to count the others, it's the same. Miss Zhuying isn't even a living being, and that old woman Jiangyue... her body was destroyed by magic when she reached level six, and she has long lost the ability to reproduce."

"So... it's just Claire?"

"Even if you only consider the issue of status, you should choose Her Royal Highness the Princess. Considering that you will be enemies with the entire imperial aristocracy in the future, her status can bring you immeasurable benefits."

Since the reason was so reasonable, Aarons couldn't refute Xia Ye's statement.

But he still felt a little guilty - and this guilt was an extension of the moral sense he forced himself to retain.

"If you feel there are any problems with your relationship, you can also consider taking a concubine according to the rules of the nobility. But for me personally, it may be more convenient to maintain the current relationship."

——Xia Ye’s meaning is actually very obvious.

In fact, I haven't established any feelings with other people yet. Even if some relationships have already occurred, they are still just at the "fun" stage.

If one day in the future someone in your family really starts talking to you about relationship issues, it won’t be too late to formally establish the relationship then.

"Although I don't know much about others, it seems that you are not moved at all, Miss Xia Ye."

"Please consider my age. If you can impress Jiang Yue, the old widow, first, maybe I will be attracted to you then."

——Aarons does have some regrets, but it’s okay now.

When the relationships among these people at home have not yet been completely smoothed over, there is really no need for me to rush into the issue of status.

For things like this that are not easy to figure out, it is best to just let nature take its course and wait for things to develop naturally.

"Well, I'll go talk to Teacher Jiangyue."

"Then I must remind you that the old woman who has been physically and mentally empty for hundreds of years is actually the easiest to deal with."

"No, no, I want to talk about business..."

Although Aarons did have some delusions in his mind, he still knew what was important and what was not.

……

"Marquis, you've come just in time. Today I have some... not-so-good news to tell you."

"It's not particularly good, but it's okay..."

After saying goodbye to the busy Xia Ye, Aarons came to the teaching and research center in the backyard alone.

Sage Jiangyue was still dressed in the standard outfit of a researcher today, but as the weather was getting warmer, the top few buttons of the dark shirt under her white coat had been undone.

——Although my desire is not that strong, I will still take a few more glances at such scenery.

"Because even though it's good news, it's actually useless... It really doesn't make me happy."

"How about we talk about it later? I came here to ask if you can make a weapon similar to a gun that can be used by someone like me who has no strength?"

"Are you talking about the most popular personal weapons in your previous life? Um... you also know that those live ammunition weapons can only be used against ordinary people, right?"

Due to the existence of fighting spirit and magic, ordinary physical attacks are unlikely to have a significant effect on people who possess these powers.

Even though he was at the second level and couldn't really exert his strength, his body was much stronger than an average person.

Those dangerous weapons that could easily take lives in the previous life have no value here.

"Can't it be solved with magic?"

"In fact, I have designed many similar magic weapons before, but the source of magic power is a big problem... Because it is too small to use psychic energy, so if you want to launch magic, you have to be willing to consume a huge amount of magic cores... And for people who can release magic power outside their bodies, it is more convenient to use magic directly than to use this kind of thing."

Although Aarons didn't understand magic, he roughly understood that the weapon that Jiangyue was talking about was actually just useless.

But even without weapons, nothing changed for him.

"Forget it for now, Teacher Jiangyue, where's your good news?"

"Ah, the good news is... I have studied the space folding technique in Miss Zhuying's body today, and successfully deduced the shrinking technology of the psychic energy conversion array."

"Isn't that great? This will make many places more convenient in the future, right?"

"But... although I did simplify the array's technique, I found that there is currently no material in the world that can bear the pressure of this simplified technique..."
