Alan’s Erotic Adventure novel Chapter 17

Alan looked around inside the house and said, “You are lucky because you are blessed by God, or you guys will be in danger.”

Bard extremely admired Alan already. The dark cloud, the broken mirror and the tree moths were proved right. And even he could predict what happened to Barton. He was so helpful for he did not charge any money of that. What made Bard more impressive was Alan now could tell what he detected from the house as a fortune teller master.

Alan pondered with a frown. Bard trusted him indeed and followed him closely. He intended to ask something but he paused because he didn’t want to interrupt Alan.

“I found it. The house is surrounded by an evil aura. And it’s a snake demon.” Alan looked panicked with wide eyes as he asked, “Do you raise snakes?”

“Snake? No. Do we raise snake here?” Barton looked confused and stared at the village woman, who was shaking her head hard. The woman was assumed to be the nurse for Barton. Alan saw they seemed not to understand and looked confused still. He became anxious, but he couldn’t tell them what had happened directly because he would be suspected. So, the truth should be told by others rather than him.

Knowing that they still didn’t blame Amy for all these, Alan became more worried. He understood the village woman was illiterate, so he offered more tips, “Was Barton born in 1990?”

“Yeah. How did master know that?” said Barton.

“Then all of these make sense now. The snake comes for your only son was born in 1990. The erythema is the evidence of that.” Alan said as he pretended to be frightened.

Barton was so shocked that he fell down onto the floor and kept murmuring.

Alan was excited as he felt he had made it. But the problem was that these two assholes still didn’t think of Amy. Alan couldn’t wait to tell them, “You idiot, Amy was the one who was born in....If they get married, she will bring bad luck to your family.”

“My lord, it really has something to do with Barton’s fiancée Amy.” The village woman figured it out more quickly than Bard. Bard was such a fool, and so was his son. How could such a fool become rich?

Alan felt relaxed and thought the right moment just came.

“Yeah. How didn’t I think of that? What should I do, master?” Bard said desperately to Alan.

“But Linda, the matchmaker, tell us their ages are fine.” Bard looked so confused. He didn’t understand the reasons. How could he know that he was fooled by Alan?

“Remember the dark cloud, the broken mirror, the moths around the tree, Barton’s erythema? What’s worse, the entire house is surrounded by an evil aura. How can you say that is nothing to do with their ages? Your son is in serious danger. You still want them to get married at risk to continue your family’s name? Do it if you dare!” Alan was trying all he could to scare Bard.

The village woman walked inside as if to take care of Barton.

“Alright, I will ask Linda to cancel the marriage next week.” Bard said disappointedly. Previously he couldn’t feel more satisfied with this marriage. But now, who could imagine it ended up like this?

Alan felt happy to himself, “You promised. It’s up to you. You could not blame it on me.” But Alan still worried about it as he was trying to avoid being suspected.

“Cancel the marriage? How can you do that? What if the demon gets mad at it?” Alan made it clear pretentiously that he disagreed to cancel the marriage, for it was not what he wanted. If Bard knew the truth, he would definitely kill Alan.

“I will go myself. I won’t take back the bride price. And I will bring gifts to show my sincerity. Master, what do you think?” Bard said with a blank face.

“Alright, it is not bad. I think the demon around your son will disappear very soon.” As Alan spoke, the village woman shouted as she rushed out, “My lord, Barton now is fine. The erythema is gone. Unbelievable!”

“Oh my god. What a master you are! You must stay here for a dinner!”

Alan refused Bard’s invitation. And he felt relaxed immediately. He looked back at Bard, and chuckled to himself, “Jesus, I finally made it!”

Alan was not completely confident on whether or not Bard would cancel the marriage next week. But he thought the show he just acted was so perfect. And it all owed to the information he collected, or he wouldn’t have the courage to gamble.
