Chapter 78: [Bonus Chapter] Two Wives!?

"There he is!"

"Took you long enough!"

"We thought you got lost or something!"

Strange faces greeted him like they had known YuWon all his life. At first, he got startled. But then he realized the reception he was getting was probably because he had saved them from the worms during the first trial.

He just smiled and carried ahead, with Lysandra clinging to him like a newlywed wife.

I can't say that isn't the case.

Before returning to the real world, Lysandra had wanted something from him. YuWon agreed without a second thought and only then she showed him an altar.

Lysandra smiled giddily and dragged him to the altar where they got married, with nature as their only witness. Hell, they were even wearing identical rings made of vines.

While smiling, YuWon was wondering how would he explain everything to Gina. But he didn't have to wait long as she came running towards the gates only to see him next to Lysandra, and her smile dropped.

The dryad, as beautiful as ever, was linking her arm with YuWon's. And that was enough to set Gina off. But miraculously, she remained somewhat calm, only shooting daggers at Lysandra.

YuWon knew she could go off at any moment, but he didn't want any drama in the public so he quickly hurried towards Gina. But Lysandra didn't let go of his arm. After all, she knew who her love rival was, and much to YuWon's dismay, she wanted to show Gina her place.

"I can explain," YuWon said. "Let's just go somewhere private first—"

"I hope you've got a good one," Gina muttered, and crossed her arms, clearly not in the mood for jokes.

The group, excluding Yuna, went to a secluded spot where YuWon explained everything to Gina. He didn't want Yeji there either, but Gina insisted, so YuWon had no choice.

At first, he wanted to tell Gina about his class and abilities. But since it would have raised questions from Yeji, he decided against it. Instead, she stuck to the cover-up story he told Soo-Ah.

"Well, since I'm an oracle," YuWon began. "I saw Lysandra in a future vision. Since she was in trouble, so I went to rescue her and one thing led to another—"

Lysandra stifled a laugh. Unlike them, she knew about his ability, but she was impressed with his talent to talk his way out of any situation. So she just smiled, letting YuWon fool the others.

"You saved her, but that doesn't explain why she's clinging to you, husband," Gina snapped. "I don't care what vision you had. Why do you have another woman by your side? Did she coax you? Just say the word and I'll deal with her—"

Now Lysandra couldn't hold back any longer. She got into Gina's face even though she had promised she would let YuWon handle her.

Lysandra got flung backward, but as she did, vines shot up from the ground, wrapping around Gina and dragging her along for a ride.

Gina tried to rip them off her, but more vines kept appearing, restricting her limbs. But eventually, she broke through and the fight continued.

This will drag on forever...

YuWon sighed. From the moment they began fighting, he knew they'd end in a stalemate. Lysandra was a defense expert, while Gina excelled at offense. No matter what they did, overpowering each other was next to impossible.

After making up his mind, he rushed between the two, grabbed their arms, and pulled them in for a hug.

"That's enough," he said in a strict tone. "You had your fun. Now stop fighting before I make you stop."

Gina and Lysandra both glared at each other over YuWon's shoulders, but none spoke a word. Sensing their hesitance, he used his trump card.

"If you keep this up, you both of you can sleep alone tonight."

Gina growled while Lysandra kept smiling. But both of them were far from done with each other. However, they agreed to stop for YuWon's sake.

"Fine," Gina muttered.

"It was a good fight," Lysandra smiled and dropped the topic. "But I suppose we can call it a draw."

"Thank you," YuWon sighed in relief.

He was about to let them go when the two glanced and each other and locked arms with YuWon. He knew they were up to something not so good.

"Wait, what's going on?" he asked.

"You said we couldn't fight each other," Gina said, smirking.

"So we'll just share the reward," Lysandra smiled wickedly.

"Uh, hold on, maybe we should—"

With a wave of her hand, Lysandra covered his mouth with vines and the two dragged him to the room. Yeji and Yuna stood by, wondering if they should do something. But ultimately decided against it.

"I guess he asked for this," Yeji muttered, shaking her head.

"Definitely," Yuna nodded.
