Chapter 954 I Guess Our Mistress Still Has A Chance
It had been two days since Eiko and Fei Fei went off on an adventure on their own.
Because of the immeasurable range between them, Lux was unable to communicate with King Leoric and ask him how the two were doing.
Eiko had always been with him for quite a long time, and not feeling her weight on top of his head would take some time getting used to.
Even so, he was confident that, with the Wraith King looking after her, she and Fei Fei would be safe as long as they didn’t face any Calamity-Ranked monsters in the wild.
The sound of metal hitting metal reverberated in the surroundings as Lux and Keane clashed.
This was the first time that the two of them had actually sparred against each other because they didn’t have the opportunity to fight during the Lionheart Tournament at Barbatos Academy.
Cethus and Gerhart watched this battle with great interest, and the Dragon Born was even cheering on Keane, hoping that the swordsman would be able to defeat the Half-Elf, who was currently wielding a spear in his hand.
Lux was a C-Ranker, and Keane was a D-Ranker. Rank-wise, he was stronger than the latter, but right now, they were evenly matched.
Most of the time, Keane would end his battles before he could even draw his sword to the fullest.
But every time he was fighting with Lux, the only thing one could hear were faint clicking sounds, as he unsheathed his sword with a flick of his thumb.
Of course, right now, he wouldn’t use his killer techniques to fight against his friend.
He was helping Lux train on wielding a spear since the latter’s main weapon was now the Spear of Longinus.
Even though the swordsman wasn’t using his technique to the fullest, it didn’t change the fact that Lux was unable to land a hit on his body.
It made him realize that fighting against experts who had truly mastered their weapons was quite difficult.
For them, their weapon was an extension of their body, and they knew how to effectively use it in battle.
Even though Lux was stronger Rank-wise, Keane was better when it came to technique.
In the distance, Iris, Cai, and Aurora watched the battle as if it were a supplemental show for their picnic. This was the first time that Iris had visited Lux’s Guild Headquarters, and she was quite impressed with the floating island that the Half-Elf had stolen from the Dragon King.
Originally, only the Mountain Range belonged to Lux’s territory. However, since Gaap had made the Earth Turtle assimilate with the entire island, they were able to bring all of it with them when they came to the Crystal Palace to seek Asylum.
Gaap had also passed the ownership of the Earth Turtle to Lux, allowing the Half-Elf to command it even though he was away.
While the three girls were observing the battle from a distance, a cheerful voice reached the pink-haired beauty’s ears.
“Aurora!”
Valerie, accompanied by her two handmaidens, Ali and Ari, arrived at the scene.
The plain-looking girl had given Aurora an artifact that would inform Valerie when her friend was at Lux’s Guild Headquarters.
Valerie could have arrived earlier, but she had been in the middle of an important discussion with her mother. However, as soon as she was done, she headed straight to their family’s private Teleportation Gate, allowing her to instantly teleport to Lux’s Guild Headquarters.
“Valerie!” Aurora waved at the approaching young lady with a smile on her face. “How are you?”
“I’m good,” Valerie replied as she stopped a meter away from the picnic blanket. Her gaze landed on Iris and Cai for a few seconds before making a curtsy.
“My name is Valerie.” Valerie introduced herself. “These are my two servants, Ali, and Ari. Are you perhaps Sir Lux’s two fiancees?”
Iris nodded. “My name is Iris Von Kaizer, and I am Lux’s first fiance. This lady beside me is Caitlin, but you might already know her as Cai.”
Valerie blinked once then twice before her eyes widened in shock.
“S-She is Cai?” Valerie stuttered. “That Boar with the golden slime on her head?”
Iris giggled after seeing Valerie’s reaction. Cai on the other hand only smiled and nodded her head.
“Yes,” Cai replied. “I am that Boar that you speak of. Feel free to call me Cai like usual.”
“Unbelievable,” Valerie muttered.
The Dragon Slime on Valerie’s head snickered making “Zi Zi Zi” sounds.
“Why don’t you join us?” Iris asked. “There’s plenty of space here.”
The blue-haired beauty lightly tapped the space beside her, which made Valerie hesitate for a brief moment.
“Come join us, Valerie.” Aurora insisted. “Don’t worry. They don’t bite.”
A blush appeared on the plain-looking girl’s face before she nodded her head in acceptance.
After sitting beside Iris, she observed her and Cai, without saying a word.
‘So, the two of them are Sir Lux’s fiance…,’ Valerie thought. ‘Both of them seem nice. As expected of Sir Lux. His charm is powerful enough to attract beautiful ladies to his side.’
Iris and Cai were also observing Valerie, as well as her two handmaidens. A few minutes later, the two exchanged knowing glances at each other.
‘It seems that Aurora is not the only one who likes Lux.’
These were the thoughts that were in Iris’ and Cai’s minds as they shifted their attention to the Half-Elf, who was still fighting against Keane.
The two of them had already removed their shirts because they were soaked with their sweat. Their bodies glistened with perspiration as they continued to clash with each other, making Ali and Ari make snarky comments from the side.
“Is he trying to seduce us?” Ali asked. “He already has two fiances, and he’s still showing off like this. I worry about his future.”
“What a sinful man,” Ari sighed. “If he keeps on doing this, I might just accept his proposal to marry him. Um, I think giving birth to twelve kids is just fine. I like to have a big family.”
The corner of Aurora’s, and Valerie’s lips twitched after hearing Ali’s and Ari’s remarks. They were currently with Lux’s two fiances, and the two servants were saying whatever they wanted.
To their surprise, Iris and Cai didn’t say anything and simply smiled. Perhaps, they knew that Ali and Ari were just joking, so they didn’t take it to heart.
Clearly, their relationship with the Half-Elf was close enough for them to joke about something like this.
“Jokes are half-truths, you know?” Aurora said with a smile. “Does this mean that the two of you like Lux as well?”
Ali and Ari glanced at Aurora and smiled.
“He would have to get through us before he could do anything to our mistress,” Ali replied.
“If he wants to make our Mistress pregnant, he has to make us pregnant first,” Ari said with a straight face.
Valerie choked on the tea that had just been given to her by Iris.
She did like Lux, but for her two handmaidens to say something like this, especially when Iris and Cai were right beside them, made her feel like hiding inside a hole.
Ali rubbed Valerie’s back, as the young lady coughed repeatedly.
“Are you okay, Mistress?” Ari asked with concern.
“I will be if the two of you stop talking,” Valerie replied.
“Understood.” Ari nodded. “We will drug Lux’s drink with Aphrodisiac and serve him to you on a silver platter.”
“Ari!” Valerie pounced on her handmaiden, pinning her down on the blanket.
A giggle escaped Ari’s lips as Valerie tried to use her hands to cover the talkative girl’s mouth.
She didn’t know why her handmaiden was acting like this, and it was making her cheeks burn in embarrassment.
What she didn’t know was that Ali and Ari were testing Iris’ and Cai’s bottom line. They really cared about Valerie, so they wanted to know the thoughts of Lux’s two fiances when it came to their future husband having more wives.
Seeing that Iris and Cai didn’t seem to mind their words, they secretly let out a sigh of relief in their hearts.
‘I guess our Mistress still has a chance,’ Ali thought.
What they wanted the most was to see Valerie’s happiness.
She and her sister were willing to climb a mountain of fire to ensure that the young lady, whom they already treated as their little sister, would be happy.
They were even willing to defy the Dragon King’s orders if it meant that their mistress would be able to be with the person she loved.
Just as the ladies were about to continue their chat, a loud cracking sound spread in What the two handmaidens didn’t know was that Iris and Cai were also carefully observing the ladies around their fiance.
Although they didn’t mind sharing their man with others, that didn’t mean that they would just accept anyone and call them their sisters.
Just as the ladies were about to continue their chat, a loud cracking sound spread in the surroundings.
A moment later, a lady fell from the sky. She crashed on the ground a few meters away from Lux and Keane, who were still sparring with each other.
Seeing the familiar lady, Lux’s face immediately became grim as he ran towards her.
She was none other than Hana.
She was one of the members of his Master’s Covenant, and seeing her injured to such a degree made the Half-Elf feel as if his heart was being squeezed inside his chest.
“Healing Wind!” Lux immediately used his healing spell as he carefully cradled the injured lady in his arms.
“Hana! Wake up, Hana!” Lux said as he lightly shook her body. “What happened?! Where is Master?”
Hana’s eyes fluttered open. She looked at Lux in a daze before raising her hand to touch the side of his face.
“M-Master…,” Hana said. “… The Divine… Army.”
After saying those words, Hana lost consciousness.
Lux gritted his teeth before carrying her in his arms. He then flew towards their Guild Headquarters in order to get Hana properly treated.
That was the only way for her to give him a proper explanation, so he could understand what happened to his Master, who had parted with him with a smile on his face.
