Bella is not staying here tonight while Carla is busy studying. Arthur didn't get any disturbance when he headed to his room.
However, just after he entered the room and wanted to go to the bathroom, he suddenly received a video call.
It was surprising, it was from Suzune.
They communicated just this afternoon, so there shouldn't be anything else they need to talk about until they meet in Paris later. However, just a few hours later, she contacted him again.
Arthur wondered if the woman was planning something.
He finally sat behind his computer desk and turned on the computer before connecting it to his phone. Only after that did he press the accept button. The ding sound echoed from the computer's speaker before the screen displayed the woman's figure.
Unlike before when she was in the office with a professional style, this time she was lying on the bed with her phone in front of her so her entire figure, from head to toe, appeared on Arthur's computer screen.
She was wearing a short, loose nightgown, so in the prone position with her head lifted up to look at her phone, the top of her breasts was quite visible, only slightly obscured by a few strands of her hair falling down.
A woman should not do a video call with a man she just met using such clothes. It practically hides the motive because the intention to seduce is too obvious.
She smiled when she saw Arthur.
"It's already night there," she said, reminding Arthur that America should still be in the daytime.
"You're not sleeping this early, are you?" Arthur asked.
"I do plan to sleep now because I have been working since last night," Suzune answered.
"Then why did you contact me?"
"Can't I?" She actually asked back, in a gentle tone.
Given that she previously got straight to the point when talking, her way of speaking this time was somewhat strange.
Because she wanted to play, Arthur naturally went along with her.
"I'm not busy, so it's okay. You can tell me your wishes, and I will listen to them until the end," Arthur said.
"Great!" She smiled again and shook both of her feet up and down.
"I want to ask, are you really a magus?"
"Hmm..." Arthur smiled coldly at that question.
Perhaps Suzune realized it was a silly question, so she continued, "to be honest, I'm the type of woman who always dreams of having powers that humans don't possess. It doesn't mean I'm greedy, but the fact is there are limitations if we only rely on our brains."
"And?"
"Yeah, if you're a magus, I hope I can learn from you," the woman said.
"That's not impossible, of course... as long as you do what I want," Arthur replied.
"And what do you want me to do?" The woman asked.
It was practically like she was offering herself.
Arthur wanted to recruit her because he wanted her to be his spy. He was even willing to use force if she refused.
However, at this moment, it seemed like everything would go smoothly because the woman herself seemed interested in following him to learn magic.
Of course, Arthur, who thought there was a hidden scheme, did not simply believe her words. After all, pretending to submit is not a difficult thing, anyone can do it.
And who knows if her desire for magic is as big as she says.
Arthur was suspicious that she was an Evolver.
Although every Evolver still wants magic, those who do not know that the development of Evolver is limited may not be too concerned about magic. They will focus more on their path because they believe they too can develop very far by using that path.
However, since the woman offered herself, Arthur did not mind accepting her offer. He replied, "it would have been easier if you had told me what you could do for me first?"
"I'm not sure, that's why I want you to tell me. Maybe money? I happen to have quite a lot. Or my body?" She suddenly lifted the spaghetti strap of her dress slightly as she said that.
It didn't expose more of her body, but it could be said to be a sexy movement, something that could stir a man's desire.
"So you're the type who can sell your body for something?" Arthur asked, which she responded by shaking her head.
"Not that far, of course, but for something very big, something that can change my fate, I can do it," she answered.
Arthur didn't see any pretense in her when she said that, so she might be telling the truth.
However, there was one thing she didn't know. Arthur replied, "your body value isn't that high, I wouldn't bother contacting you if that's what I wanted."
"Then what do you want?" Her forehead furrowed for a moment, looking like she was disturbed by what Arthur said.
"Everything, of course... everything you can do for me!" Arthur replied, staring sharply into her eyes.
"You... what do you mean?" She immediately sat up after hearing his words.
"I'm sure my words are clear enough!" Arthur added.
"Isn't that too much, I'm not a slave." Her eyes suddenly became somewhat cold.
"Hmm..." Arthur chuckled coldly as he saw her expression, which was already different from before. "It seems like you're not the type to pretend easily... well then, I'll wait for you to think about it, contact me again when you agree."
After saying that, Arthur ended the video call.

"Screw it!" Suzune threw her phone before looking to the side.
In fact, she was not alone in that room.
There was a beautiful middle-aged woman, with neatly tied blonde hair.
She wore a skirt and shirt, sitting with her legs crossed on a chair right next to Suzune's bed.
Her bright green eyes were somewhat cold in expression.
At a glance, she had a facial structure similar to Suzune's except that she was a pure white-skinned woman, not mixed with any other blood.
"He's not a hot-blooded young man, I thought it wouldn't be easy to influence him," Suzune said to her. Now, the woman was calm.
The middle-aged woman, Rebecca, raised her eyebrows, stood up and replied, "keep contacting him until we go to Paris, make sure you can deepen your relationship with him."
After saying that, she took a step out of the room.
