Chapter 267: Meeting Aria, Chaos In Elf Kingdom (6)
\'That\'s the plan. I\'ll probably progress to 70% because we are talking about Empyrean-order with a life-attributed bloodline here,\' Erix laughed.
"The event will last for a day, so see you all later," Runia said with a smile.
Everyone internally rolled their eyes.
As if they couldn\'t understand the joy behind her smile and words.
…
While the ladies left the palace, Erix soon arrived on the 85th floor, in a luxurious room.
Elina sat at a table and soon saw Erix entering the room after Runia.
\'Alright, he is handsome, at least.\'
Erix eyed the Queen and internally nodded as he also assessed her figure.
\'Bomb.\'
Her milkers were juicy and big, her figure was perfect and curvy.
She had long wavy golden hair, and her face was beautiful, which he would enjoy twisting later while pounding her.
"Pleasure to meet you, Queen Elina," Erix said with a smile, albeit it looked a bit devilish.
The duo sat at the table as Elina smiled and said, "Not bad. You are more than meets the eye, especially after seeing you in person."
\'A strange source, no bloodline yet, but powerful and whiff of indomitable aura…\'
"Mom, Erix. You talk with him for a bit. I am going to bring some things," Runia grinned.
Erix had targeted her with the buff\'s ability, so he could still read her thoughts. \'Incense? It looks like she wants to get uber high as well…Heh, good for me.\'
Erix had lower resistance against physical body ailments, but his mind\'s structure and capability were a bit unique due to his Hybrid Zombie race as he had higher resistance and faster recovery against mental effects, so he was going to enjoy and execute the plan.
…
Amu suddenly appeared before Lilith, Rin, Lily, and Maleina as they arrived on the 1st floor.
"You are going out? I want you to bring someone with you," Amu said, the slime\'s expression somber.
"She is the only person I consider important in this pile of trash palace."
"Eh? Who?" Rin raised her eyebrows. She was curious as to what this ancient will consider important.
"Her name is Aria, she is waiting at the palace gate entrance."
After saying that, Amu disappeared. \'The rest is on you as you wanted.\'
The group continued their way to leave the palace and saw a girl standing there with her index fingers rubbing against each other.
When Aria saw the group, her eyes shined.
On the other hand, Lilith was surprised. \'This girl…\'
\'Something feels off…\'
"You are Aria?" Rin asked and smiled. "You\'re a cutie, eh?"
"H-"
"Aria?!"
Just as Aria was about to speak, everyone heard a shout and turned their heads up as they saw Runia descending.
"What are you doing here?" Runia frowned.
\'Why does this bitch have this attitude towards her?\' Maleina was surprised.
Lilith, Rin, and Maleina were also doubtful.
"Sister, I am going to participate in the event with them," Aria said with a smile.
"Don\'t call me sister," Runia snorted. "I already told you that many times."
"Sorry," Runia\'s face slightly fell, but she still tried to smile.
\'This Aria strangely feels more powerful, at least, that\'s the feeling I am getting, so why is she taking shit from this bitch if they are sisters?\' Rin internally clicked her tongue.
She didn\'t feel good about that. Her opinion of Runia was already lowest after all, so someone with good vibe like Aria was sure to be at the opposite spectrum of Runia.
Suddenly, all of them also heard Amu\'s voice in their heads.
\'I also have a request to all of you, please.\'
The group was instantly surprised to hear Amu\'s pleading tone.
\'Due to Aria\'s past and her upbringing, she is very used to suffering from others because that\'s all she had ever faced.\'
\'Her father whom she thought loved her, also turned into a shithead in front of her, so her only support is me, but her shining light is you all as she dreams her new life\'s journey with your group.\'
\'Her mentality might be a bit skewed, but her positives far outclasses her negatives. I won\'t say more, so you are free to make your judgment. Just let her into your party and see for yourself.\'
On the other hand, Runia snorted and said to Aria, "Don\'t annoy the guests if you are going with them, that\'s all."
\'Scram already,\' Rin internally rolled her eyes.
Runia flew away, and Aria\'s expression also made a full turn as her eyes brightened, and she said to the group with a smile, "Hello, I am Aria."
"Why did you call her your sister?" Rin asked.
"She…we share the same father, but not mothers."
"Have we ever met before?" Lilith curiously asked.
"Ah, no," Aria shook her head, but her cheeks quickly turned a bit pink as she added, "But I\'ve seen all of you."
"Actually…when you entered that pond, I was already there hiding below in a small cave deep in the pond."
Aria\'s smile bloomed, "Amu is my only friend here, so whenever I am upset, I go there and meditate."
"Wait, so you were there the entire time?" Lily was stunned.
"Yes!. Hehe, I watched all of your tests, and also fully watched Erix\'s entire test!"
"He is so…I-I can\'t put words correctly," Aria\'s cheeks turned red and her eyes had sparks. "But I really want to join your party."
Clenching her fists, Aria determinedly said, "If you have a test to join your party, then I am willing to take it and pass!"
"Haha…" Rin chuckled and grabbed Aria\'s cheeks and then grabbed her hands. "You\'re a cutie, so you already pass. Come, let\'s have some fun in the city. You should know some places, right?"
"Good idea," Lilith smiled. "We have to spend some time somewhere since we aren\'t going to participate in the event."
On the other hand, Aria was startled, "Ah, you will not participate?"
Rin snickered.
"Nah. Come, let\'s leave first. We\'ll tell you why later."
As they left, the group once again heard Amu\'s voice.
\'She doesn\'t know much about outside because she wasn\'t allowed to go out much by her father with the excuse of protecting her.\'
\'Also, it\'s fine even if you test her prowess. She is sure to shock you all, hehe. Don\'t judge her capability based on her jolly personality.\'
\'She is lively despite all the suffering because she thought her father was by her side and loved her, but that also went to naught today as her trash father broke her heart completely, but she is still not depressed because she has a new ray of light in her life, which is your group.\'
\'She is best, get it? Best!! Humph.\'
The group was speechless at Amu, but they understood that Amu had taken a great liking to Aria, hence its thoughts.
While the group talked with Aria as they left, they saw her getting more and more excited about their adventures.
They also couldn\'t help but like this jolly bubble that was Aria.
"So, the event registration and entrance is on that small floating island, eh? It wasn\'t before there," Lily raised her eyebrow as she saw the floating island five kilometers away behind the mountain.
"Yes, that\'s the event avenue," Aria nodded.
"Aria, that event is also a setup by that bitch princes and queen for their plan."
