Chapter 974 Gifts and Gratitude Part 2

Not only the man was adamant about giving the Verhens gifts, but also Rena’s words seemed to have hurt his pride, so she gave up. Kamila felt guilty at the idea of exploiting such a good man’s heart, so she only picked one piece of clothing. _{free𝑤ebnovel.com}

It was a close-fitting deep red woolen sweater so soft and warm that it felt like wearing a hug.

The rest of the family followed her lead and did the same. Her regret about not being able to take more was soon replaced by relief when all the shopkeepers did the same, always refusing to let them leave empty-handed.

By the time they were back to the Baron’s guest house, her dimensional amulet was full and Kamila had to borrow some space from Lith’s pocket dimension. Unlike the Verhens, the only storage item she had was the one Lith had gifted her for her birthday which was always half full with her working equipment.

"Good gods! If Jambel had more stores I would need a new apartment just to have a wardrobe big enough for all this stuff." While looking at the handbags, clothes, and shoes lined up on her bed, Kamila’s voice and eyes brimmed with joy, in stark contrast with her words.

She had even managed to pick lots of souvenirs for Zinya and her children.

"If you are happy then I’m happy as well." Lith looked at his Archmage robe as if it had betrayed him. He had received a non-imprinted robe after the ceremony of ascension and stored it inside the Skinwalker armor.

Until that moment, all of his uniforms had kept people at bay, whereas the deep blue robe acted as a magnet. Lith didn’t like receiving so much attention, nor had any interest in most of the things he had nearly been forced to take, to the point that he had mostly picked stuff that others wanted to give them as gifts.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you." Kamila ignored his flat tone and embraced him with so much enthusiasm that it almost resembled a tackle. "Is there anything I can do to return you the favor?"

She buried her face in his chest, emitting a low purring sound of pleasure.

"Maybe. You’re a Royal Constable, right? How much do you know about mining rights?" Lith asked.

"Just everything. Why?" It wasn’t the romantic answer she was hoping for, but she sucked it up and never stopped purring.

"It’s a long story, we’ll discuss it after lunch. Now get ready, or we’ll be late." One of the things that Lith loved the most about having come clean with both Kamila and his family was that he didn’t have to hide any of his schemes anymore.

He didn’t need to come up with excuses and lies. All he had to do was tell her the truth and ask her for help.

"It’s easy to say when you always wear the same damn thing, no matter the circumstances." Kamila stood in front of the mirror, trying to put together a classy outfit from the newly acquired clothes.

"It’s me who needs to walk an extra mile just not to look like Elina’s homely sister..." A slow, sweet kiss cut her short and made Kamila forget about the constant stress that comparing herself with the women of Lith’s family burdened her with.

"Do you feel better now or do you need more confidence?" He asked.
