Chapter 171

"Lezetania... I think it's Yurith's country."

"Hmm." Fu Hua nodded and said, "Actually, when we were at home before, Yurith had already extended an invitation to Kong and Tia."

"So you didn't go?" Luo Mio asked Fu Hua.

Fu Hua shook her head.

"Minato..."

"Hehe..." Wakamiya Minato scratched her cheek and said, "Yurith also invited me, but Yuzuki, Corona, Sophia -senpai, and Nina -chan said they were staying in St. Freya during the holidays, so I chose to stay as well."

"Bella..."

"I asked Bella to go."

Fu Hua looked at Luo Mio and said, "There's no one there, so someone has to take care of her."

"Is that so..." Luo Mio murmured thoughtfully, "I was wondering why it felt so quiet after we came out."

"However... they set off this morning." Fu Hua looked at Luo Mio and smiled gently. "If they set off now, you can give them a surprise tonight."

Luo Mio nodded after hearing Fu Hua's words.

"Can."

"In that case..."

Fu Hua opened the Space Window and then opened a communication.

"The big boss?"

Ai-chan's weak voice came from the Space Window.

"Prepare a plane for Mio to fly to Lezetania."

"Boss?"

Ai-chan looked puzzled for a moment, then said, "Okay, I understand."

Meanwhile, Wakamiya Minato to the side, also spoke to Luo Mio.

"Actually, during the two weeks that Luo Mio was asleep, Senior Sophia had a lot of unspeakable suffering. Every day, she was busy with Student Council matters. A few days ago, she didn't even get a break because of the final exams."

Upon hearing Wakamiya Minato's words, Luo Mio was speechless for a moment.

"Okay, I understand. I'll send her a message to apologize later."

At this moment, the Book of Cang Xuan on the side had also finished absorbing all the memories.

Then, with a look of annoyance in her blue eyes, she spoke to Fu Hua.

"What kind of disciples are these?!"

Clearly, the memory of Fu Hua being severely injured by the Seven Swords of Taixu on Great Void Mountain had angered the Book of Cang Xuan.

Then he looked at Fu Hua apologetically.

"I'm sorry... Chi Yuan, I never expected that my promise would cause you..."

Fu Hua looked at the Book of Cang Xuan and smiled, "It's alright."

Wakamiya Minato to the side, looked at Fu Hua comforting Book of Cang Xuan and asked Luo Mio in confusion.

"How old is Ms. Fu Hua?"

Luo Mio glanced at her, then smiled.

"She's old enough to be your ancestor."

"Huh???!"

Chapter 93: Trouble Still Arrives

"Sis, I'm coming in."

Amagiri Ayato was wearing a black tailcoat, and her hairstyle was also styled to match the outfit, with her hair combed back.

Arriving at the girl's room, he knocked on the door and said...

"Okay, sure."

An Amagiri Haruka came from inside the house.

Upon opening the door, Amagiri Ayato saw four women: Amagiri Haruka, Yurith, Kato Kirin, and Sasamiya Saya.

Amagiri Haruka wore a deep white evening gown, Yurith wore a deep red one-piece dress, Saya wore a long dress with halter straps, and Kirrin wore a black dress with a low-cut neckline.

For a moment, Amagiri Ayato didn't know where to look.

Seeing Amagiri Ayato, Amagiri Haruka smiled and said to him, "Ayato, in situations like this, you should really compliment women."

"Ah... sorry." Amagiri Ayato blushed and scratched her cheek, then looked at Yurith and the others and said, "Your clothes fit perfectly."

After chatting with them for a while, Amagiri Ayato asked, "Where are Claudia, Xiao Kong, and Miss Bella?"

"Their words are in another room."

Yurith said to Amagiri Ayato.

"Let's go over there."

Amagiri Haruka looked at everyone, smiled gently, and said.

Then everyone left the room, but as soon as they stepped out, they ran into Claudia and the others.

"Oh dear, it's all changed, everyone."

Claudia smiled when she saw Amagiri Ayato and the others.

Claudia was dressed in a noble purple long dress, revealing her snow-white skin, sexy shoulders and alluring collarbones. Her delicate face was lightly made up, and her dazzling golden hair was draped down her back.

Bella wore a deep black evening gown, her long, light gray hair styled in an updo that revealed her fair back. Her slender, long legs, clad in sexy black high heels, were devoid of any emotion. Her cold, sky-blue eyes, combined with Bella's exquisite and beautiful face, perfectly conveyed her aloofness.

Sora, on the other hand, didn't need to change at all. Her Herrscher outfit was a type of formal wear, and no formal wear was more suitable for her than her own.

Sora stood beside Claudia, and upon seeing Kato Kirin, he blinked instantly and then jogged over to Kato Kirin.

"W-What's wrong... Xiao Kong?" Kato Kirin asked softly after seeing the way Sora looked at her.

"Kirrin..." Sora murmured, calling out Kato Kirin's name.

"... exist."

Sora raised her head, her Liuli eyes looking at Kato Kirin, and said, "Are you really thirteen years old?"

"Huh?"

Sasamiya Saya, who was standing to the side, also understood the meaning behind Sora's words, and a sad expression immediately appeared on her expressionless face.

"This world is full of injustice, Xiao Kong..."

Then he lowered his head and glanced at his own size.

Kato Kirin understood what the two meant and blushed immediately.

Even if you say that...

As the only male among them, Amagiri Ayato could only manage a helpless smile in the face of such an awkward conversation.

"If only Luo Mio were here right now..."

He muttered to himself quietly.

Yurith then said, "Alright, everyone, let's hurry over, the banquet is about to begin."

——

"These people are really annoying..."

Kong stood at the edge of the banquet, looking at the guests, and said in a muffled voice.

"Hehe, after all, Little Kong-chan is the winner of the 'Phoenix Star Martial Festival.' Although you didn't appear in the later stages of the main competition, your fighting style in the preliminaries attracted quite a few people."

Beside Kong, Amagiri Haruka said with a smile.

"Besides, Little Kong-chan is very close to Yurith and Ayato."

Kong pouted in dissatisfaction.

"But there's no need for them to keep coming over to say hello."

Those who came to greet him were mostly people from the Integrated Enterprise Consortium and politicians from Lezetania.

"Speaking of which..." Kong turned his head and looked at the aloof goddess Bella beside him, saying, "Bella, you seem to have gotten used to this kind of occasion."

From the start of the banquet, many people greeted Bella, not only those from Integrated Enterprise Consortium and politicians. Bella's angelic beauty, combined with her aloof demeanor, attracted many young, wealthy men.

Bella nodded.

"I used to attend such banquets on Lord Fu Hua quite often."

Kong blinked and asked, "So how did you solve this situation?"

"Hmm..." Bella for a moment, then said, "At first, I would beat people up so that others wouldn't bother me."

"Huh?!" Kong was speechless for a moment.

On the other side, Amagiri Haruka also had her mouth slightly open.

"However, later Lord Fu Hua said that this was wrong, and then taught me the etiquette of banquets."

Noticing the looks in Sora and Amagiri Haruka's eyes, Bella's face also flushed slightly.

"Um?"

At that moment, Amagiri Haruka noticed something and looked towards a spot in the center of the banquet.

Claudia, dressed in a purple evening gown, was surrounded by a group of young men and they were talking.

Most of the young men in that group were either sons of people associated with Integrated Enterprise Consortium or politicians.

Upon seeing this, Bella explained, "Miss Tia is the daughter of a high-ranking executive at the Integrated Enterprise Consortium, a conglomerate, so she's often the center of attention at banquets."

"... The daughter of a high-ranking executive." This was the first time Amagiri Haruka had learned that Claudia was the daughter of a high-ranking Integrated Enterprise Consortium.

Her status can be said to be no less than that of Princess Yurith.

"Only..."

Bella narrowed her sky-blue eyes slightly as she looked at the group of young men.

"Miss Tia, she's not someone ants like them can even dream of..."

(Even crickets and ants dare to covet their master's fiancée...)

After hearing Bella's dangerous words and tone, Amagiri Haruka also looked at the group of young men.

From the eyes of those young men, Amagiri Haruka could see greed and lust.

Indeed, Claudia is top-tier in both status and beauty.

Bella said softly, "I apologize for being rude."

Although her tone was calm, Amagiri Haruka could still detect a hint of anger in Bella's voice.

"Wait, Bella."

Kong suddenly spoke, stopping Bella.

"Lord Void?" Bella turned around and looked at Kong with a puzzled expression.

Kong revealed a happy smile.

"No need to go."

After saying that, he raised his finger and pointed to the edge of the banquet.

Bella looked in the direction Kong pointed, her sky-blue eyes widening instantly.

——

"Miss Claudia, would you do me the honor of dancing with me?"

A young man, who considered himself extraordinary, flashed a perfectly gentlemanly smile and extended his hand to Claudia.

Although her appearance and manners attracted the attention of many young ladies, the undisguised lust in her eyes was completely exposed to Claudia.
