Grand Dad Is The Pervert God
122 A Competition of Wealth
Viscount Peter as he was known was actually a man, but as a lot of nobles, he had a few screws looses in the head.
Because he was born with a girlish looks, he preferred to dress like a woman.
In fact, many even mistook him as one many times. With some noble men courting him for him to warm their beds.
However, all though he had his moments, this man was so into women that an accurately drawn straight line had more curves than him.
He had wives and even mistresses.
However, his behavior still left a lot to be questioned.
Viscount peter strolled one step at a time towards both men.
The dress he wore was one of elegance.
In fact, it was even more colourful and beautiful than the dress that a lot of the women in this noble ball wore.
That was not all. His high heels was not too high, but just high enough to give him an extra feminine appearance.
He was a man that was well in his late fifties, but his appearance was that of a cougar ready to sink her claws in the man of another unsuspecting woman.
However, many respected and even feared peter.
There were many reasons for this.
Firstly, rumours have it that his elder brother's family was supposed to be Viscount, but by some mysterious accident, they had all been burnt in the house while they were at sleep.
This meant that the position of Viscount was naturally moved to the younger brother.
And Peter did with this position very incredible things.
It is said that even the Earl he was under feared him much.
Eros and Bolos bowed slightly in salutation and accordance to the nobility tradition of the Kingdom.
It was a simple greeting. However, those with observant eyes could see that Eros only barely bowed his head out of courtesy, and nothing more.
In fact, if other nobles were not around, Eros's pride as a god might not even let him.
However, he had an image to preserve as a noble of the state.
However, Baron Bolos did his more to please.
When it came to the circle of nobles, every word or body language was important.
Meaning could be read in absolutely anything.
With his long smoking cigar pipe in his mouth, Peter cat walked one step at a time towards both men.
He circled behind both of them. He was like a cat checking out her prey before it was time for the devour.
She took a look at Baron Bolos and then back at Eros.
Eros gave a warm smile at the Viscount.
His eyes were piecing. As if he was looking straight into the the soul of the viscount.
This made Viscount Peter give a light blush.
"Viscount peter, I'm sure you are already aware of the issue between myself and Baron Eros, as I had told you earlier on, on arriving early and on time for your birthday celebration." Baron Bolos Stated firmly.
Eros heard what he had said.
He was not dumb.
He perfectly understood what the Baron was doing.
Baron Bolos was indirectly saying that Eros had already committed an offense by arriving late to the Viscount's birthday party while being a Baron under him.
This was surely a show of disrespect.
However Eros had a quick come back.
He stepped forward as he took the Viscount's hand in his, "a good birthday gift is never so easy to find for the perfect person."
Eros had left the Viscount's feminine hand and on her wrist was a bracelet with a little charming Blue Pearl.
The moment those around saw this pendant, they all gasped in shock.
This was not something that a person like Eros that was considered to be a poor Baron should have.
"Is this a..." Viscount peter stammered a bit, "is that a Deep Sea Demon Whale Pearl!?"
Eros nodded.
Baron Bolos could not believe his eyes. This was the same thing for the other guests.
This Deep sea Whale Pearl was practically a lost Treasure.
Firstly, this Pearl could only be made by the Deep Sea Demon Whale once in every hundred years.
Of course the size and type of pearl made was dependant on the age of the Deep Sea Demon Whale.
It is said that the Deep Sea Demon Whale condenses it's Soul energy to firm this Pearl.
This is done to aid the birth of it's young one.
However, it was not just the time period for a Pearl to form thatade this gift very Expensive.
But the fact that for hundreds of years now since the Golden Empire, Deep Sea Demon Whale have not been seen.
Many speculated that they must have gone extinct as a result of excessive hunting.
After all, it was common knowledge that this Pearl could only be found in the Deep Sea Demon Whale's heart.
This pearl was said to increase life span. The energy within could even heal a lot of sicknesses.
It was a very famous accessory of the nobles of the Golden Empire.
It had grades according to it's color.
The one Eros had presented was the lowest grade. But in such a time, even the king would accept it as an important gift.
The pearl looked as if blue ocean waves were moving within it.
This surprised every body. After all, the golden empire might be dead, but royalties had a way with figuring out about such priceless treasures.
The bracelet itself might look simple, but treasure was treasure.
Immediately, Bolos looked around.
He knew that he definitely had to top what Eros was presenting.
After all, Eros was plainly bribing Viscount Peter in public.
Nobles might preach of fairness to the world, but their idea of practicing it themselves was different than what the majority enjoyed.
Justice amongst Nobles was simple defined as one with more Power.
Such was the world.
Bolos looked to his side. There she was, another pearl.
He pulled Penny closer, presenting her before the Viscount.
"Lord Peter, pearls come in different forms, but we all know that none compares to the beauty of a fair BLONDE maiden."
Viscount peter was admiring his treasure when he heard Baron Bolos's words and lifted his head to the sight of Penny's face.
One look at her and the Viscount could tell that Penny was natural blonde.
Her golden hair was so fine and flowy. It fell like a waterfall on her bright skin.
With the sharp reflection of light on it, it almost looked as if the sun had made it's presence in the room.
Viscount's Peter's attention was immediately drawn to her.
He took a look at her, and then he took a few steps about her, even touching her blonde hair.
"Surely, both of you have very compelling arguments, however..." His voice trailed, as he outrightly pulled Penny by the waist closer to himself.
"Blonde has always been my favorite color!"
Eros and Bolos both squint their eyes. They were smart men.
They knew what this meant.
It might have looked like Viscount Peter was only referring to Penny. But both men knew he was referring to Gold.
This was another shameless method of collecting bribery.
Baron Bolos gritted his teeth hard as he waved his hand and two of his guards walked over with a treasure chest the size of a traveling box.
On first sight, Eros recognized these chest. It was the same one he had used to send the money he was owing back to Baron Bolos.
The chest was opened and there it was. It was box of Bronze coins.
The moment it was opened, the crowd gasped in shock.
This was truly a lot of money.
After all, Baron Bolos was just a Baron. The fact that he could bring out such amount of money was evidence that his Estate was prospering well.
On seeing this, Viscount Peter pulled Penny closer to himself.
As he did, Penny could not hold it back any more and smacked his hand.
"Oh! Shiny and fiesty! Just how I like them."
Eros heard this and frowned. However, it was for barely a quick second before he resumed his smile.
He really did not like the Viscount's hand on his Granddaughter.
But his patience was not so shallow that he would allow such a thing get on his nerves.
Meanwhile, the guests around were already whispering lowly.
It was common knowledge that Eros was the brokest Baron in the kingdom.
In fact, many believed that he might have even borrowed again to have paid Baron Bolos his debt, and that Pearl he just gave the Viscount was some sort of family heairloom.
In their opinion, there was no way the poorest Baron in the kingdom could topple the wealth displayed by Baron Bolos.
Both men were not just of equal standing in terms of wealth.
Even Baron Bolos had a smirked look on his face.
Unknown to him, he was sanding side by side with possibly the riches man in the kingdom.
However Eros turned to Dan, "could you pass that little box to the viscount for me please!?"
