Chapter 117: Rhythm of chickens flying and eggs breaking at 116 BPM During this period, Leon had been doing just that, striking up conversations with Vivian for various reasons and excuses, then extending various veiled invitations to her. There was no need for any deliberate explanation as to what his true intentions were. It wasn’t just Vivian; Lu Muya and Merica had also been approached and invited by Leon several times. Had it not been for their innate timidity and nervousness around men and their deep-seated wariness of them, they might have already been deceived by Leon’s sweet nothings. Only Tielle, upon Leon’s initial attempt to converse with her, had bluntly thrown back a “Don’t bother me” that left Leon embarrassed for quite a while, thus sparing her from his persistence. In other words, all the women of Vivian’s Team had been hit on by Leon at one time or another. Especially Vivian, perhaps because she was the team leader, Leon’s advances towards her had been the most aggressive; it was as if he believed that once he had Vivian in his grasp, getting close to or even intimate with the other young ladies would not be difficult. ... Vivian found this very troublesome. Although Vivian did not hold a negative opinion about Leon’s actions, she also did not adopt a supportive stance. In other words, Vivian had no ill feelings towards Leon, but by the same token, she would not harbor any affection for him. In addition, Vivian was not one of those superficial women who would be utterly bewitched by Leon’s looks and manners. Therefore, she naturally could not possibly like Leon. But kind as Vivian was, she could not outright reject Leon as Tielle had done, without a word of courtesy. After all, it was hard to slap a smiling face, and Leon had outwardly been showing goodwill, which made it difficult for Vivian to respond. Hence, Vivian could only tactfully express her disinterest. “No need, after I reach the Royal Capital, I’ll have to meet up with my friends.” And so Vivian declined Leon’s offer. However, upon hearing Vivian’s words, Leon not only did not give up, but became even more enthusiastic. Speaking of which, Miss Vivian and President Riley both grew up in the Royal Capital, you must know many people there, right?” Leon said enthusiastically: “Could you introduce one or two to me? I’d also like to make friends in the Royal Capital.” Vivian smiled bitterly at that moment. It was not that Vivian could not control herself, but rather Leon’s intentions were too transparent, leaving her at a loss for words. What complicated the situation further was that there were more people present than just Vivian and Leon. “I think we shouldn’t trouble others, Lord Leon,” Udilis said, once again embracing Leon’s hand with a smile, saying, “I know people in the Royal Capital too. Let me introduce some friends to Lord Leon instead.” Her comment immediately created a tense atmosphere. Leon frowned slightly. Udilis, completely unaware of his reaction, kept smiling sweetly, her gaze toward Vivian filled with hostility. Vivian nearly couldn’t restrain herself from letting out a sigh right there. This was also quite a headache for Vivian. From the beginning, Udilis had clearly shown hostility towards Vivian. No, it should be said that Udilis made no secret of her animosity towards any woman that approached Leon. Being Leon’s partner, Udilis was indeed infatuated with him and thus very wary of the other women around him. Particularly in the case of Vivian, perhaps Udilis was acutely aware of Leon’s regard for Vivian and was worried that Vivian might steal away the affection he had for her, so her animosity towards Vivian was also the greatest. In the beginning, before the secret mission started, hadn’t Udilis said that she only came along because she knew Vivian would be there? It was precisely because of her hostility and caution towards Vivian that Udilis had made such a comment. In essence, Udilis was present on this mission solely to obstruct Leon. Leon seemed to have guessed as much but was unable to say anything about it. After all, Udilis was also of great assistance to him, and even though he knew she was there to hinder him, Leon could not speak harshly and had to let things take their course. It wasn’t that Leon couldn’t control Udilis, but rather that Leon hadn’t expected Udilis’s hostility towards Vivian to be so great. In Lamijion, Leon also had more than one woman, and Udilis was likewise very aware of his romantic affairs but had not done anything in particular about them. This gave Leon the impression that even Udilis accompanied them, it wouldn’t lead to any trouble, right? If Shane had known about this, he would have had endless criticism. “This would’ve definitely been a chaotic scene if it were in my previous life.” Right? How could Leon flirt so blatantly and presumptuously without creating a chaotic scene and even manage to rise step by step in status? If it weren’t for this polygamous Otherworld, where could such a thing possibly happen? Of course, in this world, it was clear that all members of the Divine Race with special status were female. Logically, even if this world turned into one where women were revered, it wouldn’t be surprising. Yet, not only had this not happened, but there was also a system and custom of polygamy. The reason for this was something Shane couldn’t fathom, and in the end, he could only chalk it up to “plot requirements.” Regardless, Vivian really had some troubles recently. Leon had been constantly contacting her, and Udilis’s hostility towards her had been growing more intense because of this, making Vivian feel unsure of what to do. For now, Vivian could only agree with Udilis. “Udilis is right,” she said. “She knows many friends in the Royal Capital. Her Magic Tool Shop in the Royal Capital is quite famous. Mr. Leon could rely more on his lover.” Having said her piece, Vivian did not give Leon a chance to respond and spoke up. “It’s getting late, I need to hurry and find Mr. Bellen.” Hearing this, Leon knew he couldn’t persist any further. “Alright then,” Leon said with a hint of regret and reluctance. “Next time we have the chance, let’s have a meal together.” “Sure,” Vivian responded noncommittally, while secretly breathing a sigh of relief. “Goodnight, Vivian,” said Udilis, relaxing her expression and smiling as she waved to Vivian, seeming to wish Vivian would leave quickly. And so, Vivian turned to leave. “...!” Just then, Vivian’s body suddenly stiffened, and her gaze sharply turned in one direction, her expression grave. “Vivian?” “What happened?” Seeing this, both Leon and Udilis were taken aback. Vivian didn’t respond but stared in that direction for a long time before taking a deep breath and removing the shield from her back. “Ladies and gentlemen,” Vivian said very seriously, “please don’t leave my side from now on.” “Huh?” Leon and Udilis didn’t catch on. But Vivian had no time to warn them further. Because, in front of Vivian’s eyes, two dark figures were rapidly approaching, emitting an intense stench of blood, signaling to Vivian that the newcomers were unfriendly. ... Meanwhile, in Lu Muya’s tent, Merica had just woken up. Knowing she had passed out from shyness moments ago, Merica kept her head lowered, wishing she could burrow into a hole and hide. Lu Muya still didn’t know what exactly had happened. She comforted Merica while glancing uneasily at someone beside her. There, Shane was scratching his face, looking unsure about whether he should leave or stay. “Hm?” Suddenly, Shane’s expression froze. In his eyes, an inexplicable brilliance surged.
