Chapter 104 - 99

The food hall was usually a deserted place even though it would be meal time but currently, it was full of buzzing noises as the foreign cultivators were around enjoying the delicacy that this place could offer. But nothing beats the renowned continent for food cultivation.

"Zenzen continent is still the number one when it comes to heaven-defying food!"

Kai Sun who heard that, rolled his eyes as he murmured in complaint, "What do you expect?"

Terra laughed at the sarcastic tone as she continued to observe each representing martial practitioners of their continents. The outcasted students like them were a normal occurrence as normally non-cultivators were hated by some martial practitioners in the institute but they were not the eye-catching group of students.

Suddenly, the noisy gossip king noticed the furtive glances of their known behaviorist of the team. Due to his curiosity, he followed her line of sight and saw the most strange yet beautiful people. 

In the boisterous place where cultivators were talking loudly and enjoying their fun times with each other. Only, a certain group's silent and ethereal atmosphere was out of place. They came from the Deculurom continent that were known for their non-human characteristics, based on rumours, it was a closed-off continent due to the otherworldly race and usually they didn't participate in the world winter tournament but what made them changed their minds?

"What are they?" Li Li who was enhanted by their beauty as well, asked Lith.

"They are Faire."

Faire were called to the race living in the Deculurom continent. Their common traits were the pointed ears, pale skin, white hair and cerulean eyes. If not for the uncommon mixed color eyes, not pointed ears and silver white hair which was slightly different from their white ones, Chun would be mistaken as one of them. The beauty of their handler couldn't be outshine by them but they could ȧssume that she was one of those Faire people.

Their temparament as well were incredible but none of the martial practitioners dared to strike up with them due to their intimidating presence if someone would dare to. 

The silver haired young man caught Kai Sun's attention as she went in with three people following her.

"Teacher! Here!" shouted by the gossip king as he caught the attention of their handler.

Immediately, Chun saw the lively young man as she walked to them. Unknown to them, some prominent foreign representatives eyed the newly-arrived young man, even the closed-off race turned to look at the silver haired young man as a hidden light were on their eyes.

"They came from the Slatercort continent, Sororite students. Mika, Ji Ah and Anith," Chun introduced the three people with her to the seven students as they greeted them cordially.

Han and Lerrent were the only ones who didn't greeted them as the former was not liking the three cultivators due to his instincts while the latter was lazy to exert effort, he was concentrating not to dozed off in their table.

The vigilant youth's instinct was usually on-point when it came to discerning people as he was trained in their family to be like that due to their family lineage of ȧssassins. A professional killer should have excellent qualities that could complement his ways.

"Hi! May we join you?" Mika asked with his friendly smile and gentle aura. He could enchant many female cultivators through this but not these people. Li Li greeted with her friendly smile as she went back to playing her mechanical doll, Terra nodded on them as she continued her observation to the Faire while Lith greeted back.

"You can, you're acquaintances of Teacher then let's take care each other!" Kai Sun spoke as he looked at death glares that Han was sending him. He had no idea to what he did to gain the ire of the glaring youth.

"Let's order now!"

The silver haired young man didn't want to delay the food anymore as she was hungry. If not for her busy schedule today, she might have gone back to her penthouse and asked her butler to serve her favorite roasted lamb.

'Those lamb meats are so delectable.'

They ate to their hearts' content until they were full. The hidden exchange of glances between the demon generals weren't unnotice to Chun as she chose to ignore it.

It would still be a long month for Chun as she would be dealing these demons. She hoped that she could last longer in order to achieve her plan.

------

The silver haired young man sighed as it was over, her forced smile and acting were top-notch that she was able to fool the three demon generals but perhaps putting up such acts drained the usual lively energy of Chun. She even vomitted on her toilet as Art worriedly went to her side, ċȧrėssing the back of the other as to lighten her ucomfortable feeling.

Chun might be unaffected in the surface, to what had happened to her in the past but in fact, she was traumatized by it as she would control her shaking when the fourth general would near her. Pretending to be fine was really tough as your insides were screaming terror.

"Young lord, if you can't hold it anymore. Just one word and I'll finish them."

The worried voice of the butler soften the silver haired young man's heart as she held the clenching hand of the butler. 

"Art, I do not want you to interfere as I want to do things on my own," the determination in Chun's eyes made the butler saw another personality of his young master. She was more decisive than before. Maybe choosing her as his contracted master was right.

"You've mȧturėd, Young lord!" It was rare for the butler to praise the other despite their five years of being together. 

The silver haired young man sensed her face was heating up so she immediately docked down in the toilet, pretending to vomit again. 

"Young lord, I will prepare a warm bath to relax your nerves!" Art went to the other side of the bathroom as he started his task.

Chun sighed as she thought while looking at the busy person.

'And I don't want your relatioship with your father to get more messed up due to your interference with his plans.'

Even the Prince of Demon didn't admit it, Chun knew that he cared for his father because initially, their contract was formed due to the Demon King as well. 

The Demon Prince never showed his care for the Demon King as Chun heard that the latter was heartbroken when Art left the dark lands in order to serve his contracted master, he even disowned his son for it due to his tantrums. But Art never went back and explained his cause as he wanted to go back with something to prove to the Demon King, that he could be the rightful heir without his father's backing.

The silver haired young man understood the butler as she had a father also that she cared for. 

Demons were enemies by many races due to their wicked acts but Chun saw another light from Art as she spent her time with him. Not all of them were bad.

But those bad demons should be punished. Chun remembered the three demon generals that infiltrated the Harconia Institute that caused the institute to be shut down due to the heavy traces of dark energy that was left because of the invasion, that crippled the vice headmaster and separated the seven students of hers. Lives were even sacrificed for their wicked plans.

Chun was relaxing at the bathtub as the warm water was full of floating petals. She played on it as she was comfortable with her feminine body. Getting wet by warm water could cause the silver haired young man's transformation potion to wear off which she would usually avoid it at the open. Even she was careful with her served tea.

The butler was on the other side of the shower curtain. The tips of his ears were red as he maintained his poker face. 

Chun asked him to wait upon her as she didn't want to be alone in the bathroom. But in fact, the silver haired young man wanted to say something to the other.

The seductive singing of the young woman from the bathtub stopped as she said, "Art, I may not take mercy on your people."

Even if the butler would disagree about it, Chun would still continue with her plans. Surprisingly, Art replied, "Act to what you see fit, young lord."

The silver haired young lady smiled from the other side as she stood up from her relax position. 

Hearing the splashing of water as the young master was getting out, Art immediately wrapped the other with a towel as he carried her out of the bathroom.

Chun was used to the attentive gesture of the butler but she was amused to see the hints of redness on the tip of the butler's ears. 

'He's shy.'

The silver haired young lady didn't sound out the 'shy' butler as she started to think on her plans for the start of the tournament.

She must take them on by surprise.
