70 Chapter 70

"Hahaha! Good. You should not be shy before me, my friend. I'm a very good ant. No harm shall come to you as long as I'm here." Quickstep said to Althea. She still bowed her head in reticence and was unresponsive towards the bald immortal.

"She was born a shy child, Quickstep. Please don't mind her manners." Savana replied to the bald immortal when she saw her daughter's continued silence.

"Minor matter. My heart is as big as a cow and my vision far as a duck. Little things like this cannot shake my being." Quickstep said to Savana. He stood straighter to assume a dignified pose. Everyone who heard him was bewildered by his words especially the harem of Ezedius.

They had only taken in the reports of their servants but to see the bald immortal act this eccentric was beyond what they imagined.

"Ehem. To what do we owe your visit, Quickstep?" Juliana asked after the awkward moment has passed. She did not invite the bald immortal inside their home because they were guarding against any eventuality. Their husband, Ezedius, was counting on them to guard this city in his absence.

Even if Quickstep could have erased them with a breath and any form of resistance would be futile. They still would not open their doors to anyone unknown, especially one as odd as this naked immortal before them.

"I have a favor to ask, my friend. Danica, a friend of mine here, was attacked by a demon entity. She was nearly possessed. It was luck that I was there when it happened and I have driven away the cursed abomination. I have reason to believe that she suffered some minor injuries in her head.

This made her have random episodes of forgetfulness. As her real friend, I don't want to leave her alone by herself. She may be a danger to herself and to society if such symptoms persist.

Thus, I could only let her stay with you to safeguard her wellbeing until her family finds her here or until she regains her memory of where she lives. You're my friend and she's also my friend. That would make us relatives already, almost family.

I trust that you would grant me this kindness, Juliana." Quickstep explained in length towards his new friend. He could do nothing at this point but trust in the able hands of his friends. Quickstep knew that he could not do everything alone. But with his real friends, nothing was impossible.

"We would gladly help, Quickstep. Let Danica stay with us. I assure you that she will be safe here." Juliana said to the bald immortal after she examined the cultivation of Quickstep's friend. She was only in the peak stage of Ascendant Cultivation.

It would take a while for her to step into Human Cultivation because her essence and energy was still diverse. She could be monitored and controlled quite easily, she concluded.

"Really? Hahaha! You're a real friend, Juliana! Thank you so much!" Quickstep said excitedly and rushed forward towards the stunning woman in his front. It was rare to find real friends. That was why he showed his appreciation the best way he knows.
