"A seer, huh? Been a while from the last time I saw one . " I could not help but put on a frowning expression .
Seers are a very bothersome group of people . They are born with the gift to observe the nodes of fate and know things that other people can't know .
If there is a kind of person that I hated during my past reincarnations, they are seers . Seers tend to be obsessed with control . They love to use their gifts to control the world from the shadows and manipulate people without them noticing .
The most troublesome part of them, though, is that it's very hard to guard against them . In my past lives, I suffered defeat a few times due to a seer's plot .
Even one of my main techniques, Akashic Sight, was created using the seers' abilities as reference .
Of course, the seers that defeated me were very powerful . Their understating of the powers of fate was incredibly high, hundreds of times higher than a little girl like Alice . Although Alice is also a seer, she is far from being strong enough to see my fate . I can fool her powers of fate easily without her noticing .
If I'm not wrong, the reason why she proposed to help me was that she was plotting something . As a discarded prince with fourth layer strength, there are not many ways I can be of use, so I can easily reach a conclusion about her goal .
Is it rebellion? Maybe they are planning to use me as a puppet king .
Hmm, It can be interesting .
I think I can make use of it . . .
While thinking about this and that, I reached my aunt's house .
Aunt Dayana lives on the outskirts of the central district, so I did not take long to reach there . In twenty minutes, I was in front of her house .
I knocked on the door . Aunt Dayana quickly hurried to open the door and greet me .
"Claus, you are here?!" She smiled widely with a hug and invited me inside . "You came alone? I thought you would come with Daisy . "
"She was a bit busy, so I did not want to bother her . I'll bring her another day . " I replied .
"You two sure are close . Are you done it already?"
I put on a dumbfounded expression and looked at my aunt with my eyes opened wide . "Aunt, what are you asking?!"
"Haha, don't be shy . Daisy is a good girl, it's a shame she is not from a noble house, but you can take her as your concubine without a problem . "
"Aunt please, can we speak about another thing?" I showed a slightly exasperated and embarrassed expression . Thinking about it, I'm a pretty good actor .
Well, you became accustomed to acting when you must feign you are a newborn a few hundreds of times .
Aunt Dayana laughed mischievously seeing my expression . Fortunately, she stopped teasing me after that . Even for me, speaking about concubines and whatnot with my family is a bit awkward .
"Charlie, come to greet Claus!" Aunt Dayana shouted when she stopped laughing .
Instantly, I heard the sound of quick footsteps coming from the second floor .
A few seconds later, a small boy descended the stairs .
"Cousin Claus!" The little boy shouted and jumped towards me . I crouched down and opened my arms, catching him easily .
"Charlie, be careful!" Aunt Dayana scolded the boy quickly, but I could see she was smiling happily . It was obvious she was happy after seeing her son playing with me .
Little Charlie was aunt Dayana's only son . He was a small ten-year-old boy, whose looks were pretty much a smaller and more masculine version of my aunt . He also had black hair and black eyes, but his expression was more childish and innocent .
Aunt Dayana was my closest aunt . Because she works on my auction house and she helps with my business, we spend quite a lot of time together . Due to it, and because his father is usually away in other businesses, little Charlie grew close to me .
Well, I don't dislike it . To be honest, I like children very much . Maybe it's because I'm just a passerby in each one of the worlds I visit, so I like to have many children so they can serve as proof that I once existed there .
Even until now, I never have reincarnated in the same world twice, but if someday I do, I would like to think that I can find traces of my existence through my descendants .
I conversed with my aunt and played with little Charlie during the rest of the afternoon . In the evening, aunt Dayana prepared dinner and the three of us ate together .
After we finished eating, little Charlie started to feel sleepy . Aunt Dayana then took him to his room and helped him to sleep .
When she returned, she apologized with a wry smile .
"Sorry about that, children at this age are pretty energetic . "
"Don't worry about that aunt . " I smiled softly . "I'm pretty much used to playing with kids . "
"Well, you always were loved for kids . Actually, all your younger cousins are very attached to you . "
We both laughed softly . I then grabbed the dishes and went to wash them . My aunt stopped me instantly though . "What are you doing, Claus? How can I let a guest, moreover a prince, to wash the dishes?"
"Stop it aunt . " I rolled my eyes . "It's the only way I can thank you for such a delicious dinner . "
My aunt smiled wryly . "I'm sure you are the only prince that wash dishes . Furthermore, you don't forget to compliment me while you do it . "
"But it's the truth . Aunt is not only beautiful and kind, but also good at cooking . Your husband sure lucked out . "
Instantly, my aunt's expression turned complex . Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
I noticed the change instantly and looked at her worriedly . "Is anything wrong?"
My aunt looked at me and hesitated for a while . Finally, she sighed and put on a complicated expression .
"Claus, I think that something is wrong with my husband . "
