Supreme Husband System! & Supreme Wife System!

Chapter 137: The beginning of negotiations

Lucinda, still trembling with horror, finally noticed that this terrible woman was sitting among those who opposed the Hero, and this discovery plunged her into such fear that she could not remain inactive and just watch what was happening.

She stepped out of the crowd and cast off her distraction spells, and everyone immediately turned their gazes to her.

”Saint!” someone exclaimed, causing a wave of admiration.

”Ah, the Saint!”

”The Saint is here!”

The quiet crowd erupted in cheers for Lucinda.

The Heroʼs group and Eulaliaʼs group also noticed Lucindaʼs appearance.

”Hehehe,” only Sierra chuckled softly as she looked at her.

Arabelʼs gaze, noticing and recognizing the newly arrived woman, became so sharp and intense, as if her eyes could emit fire and incinerate this woman.

In order not to lose her authority in the eyes of the crowd, Lucinda pulled herself together and, overcoming her fear of Sierra, began to behave like a true Saint. She greeted the audience with a dazzling smile.

Approaching the negotiating table, Lucinda did not take a seat next to the Hero, but preferred to take a neutral position with the representatives of the Guild, which somewhat surprised the Hero.

The Hero wanted to say something, but under Lucindaʼs gaze, he didnʼt dare. He was slightly puzzled, but then he looked away from her and looked at Eulalia.

This elf was as beautiful as her Master.

Yes, the Hero already knew that this elf was a direct disciple of Milica, the High Elf he had fallen hopelessly in love with and still could not forget.

”Everything went wrong because of her. Because she rejected me, everything changed. Itʼs all because of her,” the voices repeated in the Heroʼs head as he looked at Eulalia, and his thoughts turned to her Master.

The crowd gradually began to calm down, and everyoneʼs attention was focused on the Hero and the elf.

”Youʼre beautiful!” the Hero said, looking at Eulalia.

The crowd gasped in amazement.

Eulalia, on the other hand, remained unperturbed, staring intently at the Hero.

Idan was a little surprised by the Heroʼs directness.

Arabel, on the other hand, had been looking only one way the whole time. Her gaze was fixed on Lucinda, which confused the latter a little.

Lucinda couldnʼt understand why this simple-looking girl was staring at her so intently and strangely. Lucinda was getting more uncomfortable by the second.

”How strange...” Lucinda whispered faintly.

From the moment she entered the Adventurer Guild branch building, she felt extremely anxious. And now, having paid attention to the girl, this feeling has only intensified.

After thinking a little more, she opened her eyes in horror.

Her gaze immediately turned to the young man sitting next to the girl, and at that very moment Lucinda caught the subtle vibes of murderous intent directed in her direction. She looked back at Arabel, who had a clear murderous intent on her account.

Lucinda turned her gaze to Sierra, who had been watching them with a smile the entire time.

”Damn Witch!” Lucinda mentally cursed Sierra, realizing what was happening.

Lucinda realized that the strange feeling she had been experiencing all this time was caused by Sierraʼs spell cast on the girl and the young man sitting next to her.

It was a distraction spell.

It was thanks to this spell that the surrounding people did not notice the couple. Although in every city their fame has crossed all imaginable boundaries.

If it wasnʼt for this spell, then no one would have paid attention to the Hero and the Elf.

Although Lucinda was aware of this, she couldnʼt understand why this girl was so hostile towards her.

”Whatʼs your name, oh, pretty girl? My name is Alianor, the Staff Hero,” the Hero asked, showing on his face the smile he could squeeze out of himself.

Eulalia continued to stare at the Hero as if there was a simple wall in front of her.

”Answer him! Heʼs asking for your name!” Unable to stand the elfʼs behavior, one of the Heroʼs subordinates raised his voice at Eulalia.

”Shut up!” — in response, the Hero jumped up from his chair and forcefully hit his subordinate with a staff that suddenly appeared in his hand.

The staff, which towered 180 centimeters above the ground, was a majestic sight. The material from which it was made remained unknown, but it was undoubtedly wood. The patterns that covered the surface of the staff resembled the interweaving of branches and roots, as if embodying nature itself.

This Staff was one of the sacred weapons of this world.

Idan and Arabel were finally able to see their target. To do this, Arabel tore her gaze away from Lucinda and turned her full attention to the Staff.

From the crushing blow, the Heroʼs subordinate sprawled senseless on the ground.

Even a Platinum-ranked creature couldnʼt resist a single blow from the Sacred Staff wielded by the Hero.

The hero, having knocked out one of his subordinates, assumed as majestic a pose as he could portray, trying to impress the elf. However, she did not appreciate his efforts.

She was not so simple that she did not see in this performance only a farce and an attempt to assert herself.

Not only she, but all the women present who were watching the hero expressed their displeasure by rolling their eyes.

Lucinda almost covered her face with her hand in frustration, but she restrained herself and tried to pretend that what was happening did not concern her.

”Eulalia...” she said, no longer feeling the desire to tempt the Heroʼs patience, much less provoke him. She just gave her name so that she could get to the point without delay.

”Eulalia? What a wonderful name!” the Hero exclaimed, expressing his admiration.

Idan and Nemo could barely contain their retching as they watched this scene. Idan couldnʼt figure out how to behave like that. Although he had read about such characters in various short stories, he believed that they were just a figment of the authorsʼ imagination.

However, after seeing it firsthand, he realized that there are many different worlds, and the existence of such people no longer seems improbable.

”What do you want from me?” Eulalia asked bluntly, no longer able to bear the presence of the Hero.

And at that very moment, when the Hero was about to say something, the doors of the Adventurer Guild branch opened with a bang, and an unexpected figure flew in.

All eyes turned to this unexpected guest.

She was a beautiful woman of short stature with sea-green hair, and she had two pairs of wings on her back, just like her hair.

Most of the people present didnʼt know who she was.

Only four people attacked the intruder with curses almost simultaneously.

These people were Sierra, Idan, Arabel and, of course, Lucinda.

The latter, unlike the others, looked at Esma with particular hostility. Her holy aura changed to a bloody one for a moment, radiating a great killing intent, and returned to the saint again, which did not escape the groupʼs attention.

Esma also noticed this and fixed her gaze on the Light Valkyrie, unable to comprehend why this younger sister was looking at her with such hostility. Although she couldnʼt remember them meeting before.

Unaware that she herself was one of the main causes of her distress in this ill-fated place.
