"Huh?"

"Fiancé?"

"So it was you, brat?"

"I was trying to fine you, but you ended up delivering yourself to my doorstep?"

Faced with Jiyan’s explosive revelation, Yumo was stunned at first, then her expression rapidly darkened. Her face, which had just returned to normal, was instantly shrouded in a chilling aura once again.

Towards Yuan’er’s fiancé, the man who dared to snatch her daughter, Yumo had not a shred of goodwill in her heart to begin with.

Although under Yue and Kain’s persuasion, Yumo had planned to first assess this so-called fiancé and see if he was qualified to accompany his little daughter, even so, it did not change the essence of her disgust towards him.

And upon learning that the man before her eyes was actually Yuan’er’s fiancé, Yumo’s disgust for him skyrocketed like a rocket shooting into the sky.

This thing is actually Yuan’er’s fiancé?! What was my child thinking? Also, what the hell are Kalina and the others doing?

Along with her displeasure, a deep sense of doubt also arose in Yumo’s heart.

Strange. Earlier on the rooftop, Yuan’er’s reaction and expression towards this person seemed to only hold disgust, with no affection at all. If that’s the case, why would she choose such a guy as her fiancé? Could this person be talking nonsense? Hmm, it doesn’t seem like it either.

Also, why did he suddenly attempt suicide?

Faced with Jiyan who had stabbed a silver short sword into his chest, Yumo did not rush to take action, but stared at him with puzzlement and incomprehension.

After losing face? Unable to live on in this world?

As it turned out, Yumo was overthinking things.

After the silver short sword pierced his chest, Jiyan’s life force did not diminish in the slightest. Even the blood oozing from his chest flowed back into his body due to some force. Not only that, waves of silvery-white light gradually rippled out from his body. Enveloped by this silvery radiance, Jiyan’s face, which had been smashed beyond recognition by the spiked club, gradually recovered to its original state.

"What is this?"

Seeing this, Yumo let out a surprised exclamation.

What surprised Yumo even more was that in addition to Jiyan’s body fully recovering, the magical energy within him rapidly expanded. In just a few short seconds, this originally ordinary fourth-level actually attained sixth-level strength, and the power within his body continued to climb unceasingly.

Sensing the surging power erupting from within, Jiyan, with eyes glowing silver, was extremely excited.

Hahaha!!

"Envoy, what is this?"

"The Silver Sword, an artifact that can fully unleash the power within you and grant you even greater strength on that basis. It is a magnificent item personally crafted by the Goddess herself."

"Made by the Goddess?"

"Yes. If the operation does not go smoothly, you can directly use the Silver Sword. With absolute power, you can achieve your goals. This way, it will be foolproof. Consider it a blessing from the Goddess and accept it with gratitude."

"Oh, Thanks for the gift hehe!!"

--

Recalling his previous conversation with the Church envoy, Jiyan couldn’t help but feel fortunate.

That Church envoy was really reliable! Not only did he grant me the talent of the Child of Destiny, he even gifted me such a powerful artifact!

With this, I have nothing to fear!

First, I’ll kill this meddlesome elf man in front of me, then go find Yuan’er! Right now, Yuan’er shouldn’t have entered the venue yet. I’ll intercept her before that and make eye contact with her. That way, all the previous mistakes will be remedied!

With that thought, the surging power gathered in his palm. Grinning fiercely, Jiyan suddenly raised his head and glared at the elf man not far away.

"Pay the price for your meddling, you foolish elf... Huh?!!"

However, the next moment, Jiyan’s words abruptly stopped, because the instant he raised his head, what entered his eyes was not that detestable elf man, but something that seemed familiar.

Isn’t that the spiked club that knocked me out earlier?!

"Huh?!!"

Before Jiyan could react, the same thing happened a second time.

Boom!

Accompanied by a crisp, loud bang, the spiked club fiercely smashed into Jiyan’s face, once again caving in his freshly restored handsome features, rendering him unrecognizable. That wasn’t all. The moment the spiked club made contact with Jiyan’s face, it released a shockwave.

As the impact spread, countless cracks instantly appeared on the silver short sword in Jiyan’s chest.

Then, it abruptly shattered, scattering all over the ground.

The silvery-white light that had just enveloped Jiyan’s body and granted him immense power also collapsed in an instant, transforming into countless silvery-white energy particles that dissipated into the world. Jiyan’s energy level also instantly plummeted back to fourth-rank strength.

Under the impact of the spiked club, Jiyan was sent flying once more, directly crashing back into the trash can from before...

"No, no, no, this can’t be..."

After a futile struggle, Jiyan, gradually buried by garbage, fell unconscious again.

Just like that, before Jiyan’s final plan could even begin, it was declared bankrupt.

The corridor returned to tranquility once more.

"Can you not make such a big commotion, you trash."

After muttering a few words of disdain, Yumo slowly stepped forward and carefully picked up the fallen silver sword fragments from the ground.

Staring at the silver fragments in his hand that emitted an eerie aura, Yumo’s eyes narrowed slightly, a trace of solemnity flashing within them.

"Hmm, what is this thing again?"

…

At the same time, in the banquet hall of the White Crystal Castle, a handsome man dressed in an exquisite white Church robe suddenly furrowed his brows. Then, he shook his head with a hint of disappointment.

"He failed so quickly without even making a stir... What a useless fellow."

The man softly murmured in an indifferent tone.

"Is something wrong, Lord Scarlet?"

A young and beautiful blue-haired noble lady beside him couldn’t help but ask curiously upon seeing the man suddenly distracted.

Hearing this, the man named Scarlet slowly turned his head to look at the brown-haired girl. The disappointment on his face instantly vanished, replaced by a charmingly elegant smile. He said apologetically:

"I’m sorry, Miss Fiora. Listening to your father’s experience managing the orphanage reminded me of the orphans in the Church Nation. I got distracted for a moment. Please forgive me."

Gazing at Scarlet’s blue-black gradient long hair that fluttered elegantly, his chiseled and handsome features, and especially those approachable silver eyes brimming with kindness and nobility, Fiora’s face couldn’t help but blush. She waved her hands and shook her head repeatedly:

"No, no, no, no need to apologize! Lord Scarlet! Rather, Lord Scarlet’s heart that always cares for the people and empathizes with their feelings is something I greatly admire!"

"Haha, Miss Fiora praises me too much. Since we mentioned the orphanage, could we collaborate on this in the future? I also want to purchase some specially made nutritious food from your family to help supplement the nutrition for the children at the orphanage."

"Of course!! It would be our trading company’s honor to cooperate with Lord Scarlet!"

Fiora responded without hesitation.

At the same time, the way Fiora looked at the man before her became even more reverent and respectful.

In an instant, this young lady from the trading company seemed to transform into a fangirl, her heart surging with excitement as she gazed at the handsome man in front of her with starry eyes.

Ah~ Lord Scarlet is dignified, noble, elegant, and powerful, yet so approachable. He wasn’t the least bit displeased by my abrupt conversation. He even cares about the health of the children at all times. Completely unlike those aloof and out-of-touch noble officials!

As expected of one of the Six Wings who serves the Goddess! He’s simply perfect!
