BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1360 Appeared
~"Of course, you have. You missed the first-year assessments. The second-year assessments. And the third-year assessments. Only to finally show up for the fourth-year assessments. Did you think that you\'d be able to participate here?" Uncle Acacia had every intention of letting Dyon shine here today, but he decided to have a bit of fun with him. But, Dyon\'s response only made him burst out into a robust laughter.
"Isn\'t it only fourth years Uncle Acacia? They\'d have to be even older than that to make me fear them," Dyon said with a wide smile.
"Just another boastful boy who thinks his lower regions are more robust than they really are. Is there a need to be so infatuated?" Primrose shifted her gaze back and forth between Mithrandir and Jade, but they didn\'t seem to be listening. Light smiles graced their faces as though this was exactly what they expected from Dyon.
"Why were you two so late? I sent Ri hours ago," Uncle Acacia said playfully as though he was trying to insinuate something.
Ri rolled her eyes at her father, "He was sleeping, so I waited for him to wake up. Nothing more, nothing less."
These words may not have meant much to anyone else, but it did to Dyon, \'she waited outside my door for hours just because I was sleeping?\' he smiled, \'she\'s adorable.\'~
Jade too picked up on this subtlety. She knew Ri very well, not because they interacted often, but because she could see into the minds of those around her.
Ri had a lofty goal and a great secret. Although Jade didn\'t know exactly what that secret was, she knew that she carried a burden far greater than theirs. Since when did the cold, stand offish Ri grow a caring heart?
That uncomfortable feeling in her chest grew uncontrollably. She couldn\'t help but think of the night she met Dyon.
\'Didn\'t we connect very well on that night? Why is it that the barriers he had up for me are slowly being taken down by this girl? Is she really so much better than me? Aren\'t I more beautiful?\'
Jade\'s heart was in turmoil. Before, she had felt that Dyon\'s actions were just fine. After all, even though he flirted wantonly, he only had one woman in his heart. That made Jade place him on a pedestal…
In a world where men having multiple wives was nothing special, Jade wanted to see if Dyon was worthy of her making such a sacrifice. What she didn\'t expect was for the man she had finally been moved by, the man whose thoughts were finally pure enough for her to open her heart to, suddenly didn\'t seem that special anymore.
Jade didn\'t believe that she was crazy for feeling these things about Dyon after just a single meeting.
After almost 22 years of life, she had interacted with so many people. In fact, she had led campaigns before, meeting all the geniuses of their entire universe. Whether it be their Crown Prince Lionel, or the Crown Prince of the Aumen Family, or even the geniuses of the grand Uidah Clan, none of them moved her.
All of them, in one way or another, had a sick and demented soul. This helped Jade close herself off from their feelings, not being moved in the least.
But Dyon was the first… He was the first to stare at her and not see a pretty face and a grand set of breasts. He was the first to take a liking to her not for her beauty, but for her charisma and quick wittedness.
So why was this man that she had taken so long to find not allowing her in, but instead this bland Ri Acacia who had an average appearance even by human standards, let alone elvin? Why?...
Suddenly, Dyon looked toward Jade and smiled. All of the negative emotions that had been brewing floated away like a fragrant wind.
~Dyon pretended not to notice the angered geniuses below. Instead, his eyes brightened when he noticed the table of beauties, causing them to giggle lightly. It was always nice to be appreciated by men as handsome as Dyon.
Dyon smiled at Jade, "Silver-fairy… it only makes sense that you\'d surround yourselves with such beauties. Seductive beauties, petite beauties, mischievous beauties… why should I fight if I could just sit here with you all?"
The beauties all seemed to turn a slight shade of red, causing the men to tremble in anger. One beauty blushing? Sure. But 5 at once? Could there be anything so unfair in the world?
Ri looked down at Dyon, shaking her head with a \'really?\' expression on her face.
Dyon didn\'t feel like finding a chair, so he had long since been preparing a small-scale creation array, forming a chair right in front of him and causing everyone around to look on in interest. Everyone had their own speculations on where the chair came from. But, Dyon\'s array alchemy mastery reaching the master level was the furthest from everyone\'s thoughts.
Dyon smiled, well aware of the reaction his demonic will had on most women now, "Will you introduce me?"
Jade smiled, "These are all my close friends. You must treat us well. No being bad," she giggled.
Celine looked into Dyon\'s eyes with interest. She couldn\'t help but admit that everything Jade said made sense. Despite his flirting and what he said, his eyes always remained clear. As though there was nothing that could affect him should he have a goal in mind.
The boys to the side sneered all thinking the same thing, \'I hope you\'ll enjoy being controlled by Mithrandir.\'
Introducing all the girls one by one, even Jade couldn\'t help but spend a slightly longer time introducing Mithrandir, which made Dyon\'s eyes wander.
He inwardly frowned, feeling Mithrandir trying to subtly effect his soul and sway him.
Dyon got up, walking to Mithrandir, causing the boys to almost stand up and cheer in anticipation.
"You\'re quite interesting," He said softly, looking directly into her shining red eyes.
Without Dyon noticing, Mithrandir\'s manifestation had appeared.~
