Julien’s answer did not faze Eleanor, but it did shock everyone else, especially Rosalynn, who was getting introduced to this new, courageous side of her grandson.
"See, if he has no problem, then I believe we should let him." Rosalynn said.
Eleanor sighed and waved her hand. "You guys will never understand a mother’s concerns."
Julien felt somewhat hurt to watch his mother show such expressions. ’I cannot have her see my extremely sorry states. And I absolutely cannot let her know I can die easily.’
Rosalynn could get where her daughter was coming from. She nodded her head and said, "I understand that, my dear. But, if you don’t allow your children to spread their wings, they will never reach the skies."
Eleanor didn’t want to argue on this matter. She knew her words wouldn’t be enough to convince any of them. She could only pray internally that her boy stayed safe.
"So, do I go and call my teammates?" Julien asked.
"No need. I’ll have the maids bring them here." Eleanor shook her hand and left the room. She didn’t seem to be in the best mood.
"Your mommy is too protective." Lorene commented while looking at Julien as Eleanor left. "Can’t blame her though."
If Lorene was in Eleanor’s shoes and she had a child who had only just awakened, she wouldn’t let him venture into such dangers either.
As of now, if Eleanor and Julien had sorted this matter out and decided what they should be doing, then Lorene was in position to comment. She was thus neither for or against any of the two’s decisions and kept silent.
"First time I’ve seen mom so stressed." Katherine commented as she looked at Leona.
Leona nodded. "Me too."
"If you knew the horrors of the wilderness, you would have a much worse reaction." Rosalynn said. "Your mom keeps the monsters of the wilderness at check, and those are only the ones from the periphery. There are more dangerous things the deeper one ventures, and we are just thankful that they don’t come out."
The Ravenwood Wilderness was one of the world’s forbidden places. One should never venture into them unless absolutely necessary.
If Rosalynn hadn’t seen people come out safely from the discovered temple, she wouldn’t allow her grandson to go there either.

The people were also kept under watch after they came back. They showed no signs of problems, so that was another positive sign.
"Anyway, take some rest. We’ll catch up later." Rosalynn said and got up, leaving the room.
"Come, I’ll show you my favorite spot in grandma’s house." Katherine held Julien’s hand and dragged him away.
"I’ll be going to the market. Do you want to tag along?" Leona asked her aunt as she got up.
Lorene yawned and got up lazily. "Alright."
She was clearly someone who wouldn’t venture out of the house if not necessary. To see that she agreed so easily surprised Leona.
"I have to get some bean bags made and placed here. It hurts to sit on these crude sofas." Lorene rubbed her butt and said.
"Okay." Leona could now understand why this lazy aunt of hers agreed to join.
The two left for the market while Julien was taken to Katherine’s favorite spot.
The favorite spot was atop the castle. It looked like a mini watchtower and one could see the entire city from here, along with the afternoon sun dropping towards the horizon.
A lot of people could be seen roaming around the streets and the aroma of bakeries was faint, but still there, appearing more pleasant than ever.
Katherine, although usually very talkative, did not speak right now. She felt the calm breeze brush against her blonde hair and basked in the picturesque landscape’s glory.
Julien was quiet too and continued to stare at the bustling streets of this small town.
…..
Half a day passed.
Jackie and Amelia were here.
Jackie was in a butler’s outfit as usual, appearing cute yet professional and serious while Amelia was in red robes, appearing like a proper priestess.
Her robes had a long slit at the side, revealing black stockings and allowing her legs to have room to move freely.
Julien introduced them to the rest of his family and once they all had met, took them away to another room to not make them feel awkward.
He got them settled there and was about to head back to the lounge hall when he saw his grandma waiting for him.
"So that is the girl you almost got pregnant?" Rosalynn asked.
"Uh…" Julien had no idea what to say.
Rosalynn held Julien’s hand and walked away with him. "Tell grandma everything in detail. This conversation won’t be known to anyone else."
She took him to a secluded place of the castle, ensuring their conversation wasn’t overhead.
"Is it necessary?" Julien asked.
Rosalynn thought about it and said, "Yes. This is the first time my grandson has done something and I am very interested. I’d also be doing my best to ensure you don’t repeat the mistakes, so there’s only good learning to take away from this."
"You promise you wouldn’t say it to anyone else, grandma?" Julien asked, just to be sure.
"Promise." Rosalynn nodded.
Although he did not mind saying what happened between him and Amelia, it was still embarrassing nonetheless. Also, it was unfair on Amelia to have her private moments be out like that, so Julien kept things under wraps.
"Well, we had spent quite a bit of time together and were comfortable around each other. When we were in the labyrinth on the fifth floor, we found a room where we could rest for a bit. We take turns to stand guard while the others sleep. So Jackie was on guard and I was with Amelia. Then…"
Julien forged a rough story, skipping the sensitive bits, and going straight to the sex part.
Rosalynn listened to everything with interest.
She brought him to her bedroom and had him sit on a chair.
She served him tea and sat on her bed, continuing the listening.
"…and so that was the first time I did it inside her. And then the second time was during the second round on the same day and…"
Julien said that he thought it might be a safe day so he did not use a condom. He also didn’t have any on him. But the moment was too much for him to ignore things, so he went with it.
Later, he stated that a few days had passed when they had sex again.
It was only when he had done the deed again did he realize that Amelia hadn’t gotten her periods yet.
He assumed that if the time they first had sex was safe, then now it was definitely risky. So he rushed to get some birth control, and that was how things had been.
Rosalynn was amused by his storytelling skills and more fascinated with how confident he had gotten.
"…anyway, that’s about it." Julien finished giving his grandma the details and stopped.
"Hm… that’s a very interesting experience you have there." Rosalynn commented.
Julien sipped tea and nodded. It definitely was.
"In the Lichtenstein Family, you are our first boy. And also the first one to have broken his virginity." Rosalynn revealed a fun fact, amusing Julien.
"The first one? Are you saying, neither you, nor aunt or mom have had sex?" Julien asked with fascination.
Rosalynn shook her head. "You are a boy, so you may not know it, but for women to have a high libido, several factors come into play. Additionally, we the Lichtensteins have always focused on achieving great things, and never really had time for our sexual desires to develop."
A woman’s libido was dependent highly on emotional and psychological factors. Their hormones were usually secondary.
Of course, during periods of ovulation, they would have heightened sexual desires, but given how everyone in the Lichtenstein family was busy doing some or the other thing, their desires would be heavily suppressed once again.
A woman could make do without sex all her life if she wanted.
"…though, it’s not like we never give in to our pleasures. The ladies in the family masturbate from time to time, but that’s about it. It has never gotten to the point where we needed a man to satiate our desires." Rosalynn elaborated.
Julien listened attentively and caught onto a few important facts.
He thought about whatever his grandma had said, and then asked, "So… is this the reason why everyone is so comfortable to be naked around each other?"
Rosalynn nodded. She caught onto what Julien might be feeling and asked, "Do you not feel comfortable to be naked around them, dear? Do you have your bodily reactions?"
"Bodily reactions?" Julien asked, trying to understand what his grandma meant, despite knowing fully what she meant.
"Yes. Like, do you feel… hm…how do I put it… heightened sexual cravings when you see nude ladies?" Rosalynn asked.
Julien sighed. "Of course, I do. I warned all of them to not take me in the bath together, but they never took the hint."
"Poor boy." Rosalynn smiled and shook her head. "Do you want me to tell them to not take you together?"
Julien shook his head. "No, it’s fine. I’ve learnt how to control myself."
"Oh?" Rosalynn was amused yet again. "And how is that?"
"Hmmm…." Julien took a long pause. "It’s difficult to put it into words…"
Julien took another pause.
He took a sip of tea, continued to think, then shook his head.
"…no, I have no idea how to describe it. How about I show a demonstration instead, grandma? Would you be willing to participate in it?"
Rosalynn wasn’t able to see through Julien’s devious plans as his innocent face and small body was a major cover.
"Sure." Rosalynn said.
’Hehe…’ Julien controlled himself from rubbing his hands. He felt quite like a villain deceiving people through his sinister ways. But it wasn’t his fault.
In his opinion, if one cannot scam old people, then one wasn’t cut to be a scammer.
Add to that, not scamming such a hot and sexy supermodel of a lady would just mean he was gay.
Those were Julien’s personal opinions.
He put the tea away, did a dry cough, trying to appear innocent and professional, and said, "So grandma, if I may…"
