Chapter 244: The Guard Captain clarifying some doubts.

The directions toward the main office were somewhat confusing. Therefore, Yasenia asked some of the soldiers standing in the corridors. Even if they were somewhat reluctant initially, their determination quickly crumbled before Yasenia's pleas.

Yasenia's slightly raised eye corners, the small mole under her right eye, her thick eyelashes, and beautiful straight eyebrows were enough to hook a mortal's soul away. The golden slit eyes seemed to pierce their deepest part, making them vulnerable to her demands. She didn't even have to touch them, and just some seductive glances were enough to make them eager to answer her questions.

They were in front of the Guard Captain's room five minutes later. Yasenia took out a sofa and placed it in the hallway. She could hear noises inside, so she decided to wait until the person inside came out.

Of course, it wasn't that she didn't want to interrupt their talk. The sounds Yasenia heard were something she could identify, and she knew that entering now wouldn't be a wise idea.

Angel and Kali sat at Yasenia's sides, and Sarah sat beside Angel. They took this chance to relax. There was a window in the hallway, and the light from the moon seeped inside, mixing with the dim light from the candles, giving the place a peaceful atmosphere.

After twenty minutes, a woman with rosy cheeks and slightly messed up clothes walked out of the room. Even if she had cleaned herself, Yasenia could practically feel the coquettish aura around the woman and satisfied smirk.

Yasenia raised an eyebrow, 'This is why I didn't knock on the door. I might have incurred his anger even before presenting myself if I had interrupted.'

When this woman walked outside, she saw four women sitting on a beige couch that she didn't remember being there. However, that wasn't what surprised the woman. It was the beauty of the smallest woman and the tallest one. Especially when she laid eyes on Yasenia, danger bells sounded in her head. 'Is she his new lover? I can't let a woman that beautiful get close to him, or I will lose his favor!'

She glared at Yasenia and asked, her tone hostile. "Who are you? The Guard Captain is not available right now; the guards outside must have told you. Leave before you get into trouble."

Yasenia saw her defensive stance and teased her. She leaned forward, emphasizing the deep cleavage, and said, "Do you really think he wouldn't be available for me~? I bet I can walk inside, and he would welcome me with open arms~."

The woman's face became ugly and was about to berate Yasenia when Yasenia laughed, "I'm sorry, tonight I'm slightly cheeky. I'm a cultivator that came from the outside. I have zero interest in mortals, so you can relax, miss lover."

The woman was surprised for a second. She had focused so much on their appearance that she had missed the natural aura all townspeople could detect from cultivators. 'She is a Heaven Immortal!? I nearly made a big a big mistake.'

She bowed and apologized. "I'm sorry, respected immortal. Your beauty was so high I didn't realize who you were."

Yasenia smiled, "Don't worry about it. I can understand why you reacted that way."

The woman's heart relaxed, and she also smiled, "I see. I will inform him and tell you when he is ready. I'm his wife, by the way. Nice to meet you."

Yasenia's eyes thinned slightly, but she smiled nonetheless. "Nice to meet you."

'Do these mortals really think they can fool a dragon? It seems that miss secret lover doesn't want to be found out.' Yasenia thought with amusement.

After waiting for four more minutes, the same woman came out, now more proper, and smiled, "You can go in, respected immortals."

Yasenia and the others stood up from the couch and stored it. Then, they walked inside with the woman following closely behind. After all of them entered, she closed the door and went to a desk on the side. Sarah thought, 'Is she something like a secretary?'

The office was made of wood with different armors and weapons hung on the walls. There were also two bookshelves on the side, filled with various documents. It was neatly ordered, and it was clear that the person responsible for it was very proficient in their work. Near the end of the office, facing the door and with a window behind, there was a big desk and a middle-aged man with brown hair seated behind it.

Kali asked, intrigued, "What is the arena like?"

The Captain answered, "You can register like a participant. Then, you will fight randomly against other participants. Winning will give you up to 100 of their Trial Points plus an extra ten that the arena gives. This is the only way to win Trial Points for people that have run out of monolith challenges. However, if you lose, you lose 150 Trial Points, so it is quite hard to win points if you aren't strong enough. You have to be confident of at least winning two out of three matches if you want to accumulate Points. Not to mention, if you participate in a deathmatch, the winner takes it all."

Angel took out some beast cores that ranged between second-ranked and third-rank and asked, "How many trial points are these valued for?"

The Captain looked at them and said, "Beast cores of the second level can be sold between 1 to 3 Trial Points."

The Captain said, "Low-level third-rank cores between 10 and 15, a middle-level core between 25 and 35, high-level between 50 and 85, and top-level between 100 and 200. The value changes depending on the quality, attributes, energy amount, beast-core integrity, and the age of the beast that had the core."

Yasenia raised an eyebrow, "So many factors to decide the price? How about fourth-ranked beasts? How much for a core from them?"

The Captain shook his head. "Their prices range widely because the beasts in this rank are very scarce and rare. Beasts can only advance when a cultivator advances inside our world."

Yasenia's curiosity was picked, "How does that work?"

The Guard Captain continued answering, "I've read that when a cultivator advances to the Fourth Realm, they open a path to the heavens through the tribulations, allowing beast kings to be born. "

Yasenia nodded, "With Beast kings, you must refer to fourth-ranked beasts."

The Captain said, "Yeah, we call them mortal beasts, earth beasts, heaven beasts, and Beast Kings."

Yasenia stood up and said, "Thank you for everything."

The rest followed, and Yasenia kept the sofa in her ring. Then, she moved everything with her aura placing them in their original positions.

The Captain also stood up and nodded, "If you have any other questions, don't fear coming here and asking me, miss immortal. It has been a pleasure speaking with you."

Yasenia nodded nonchalantly, turned, and left with the others.

After the door closed, the Guard Captain sat on his chair, exhausted. The woman approached and asked, "What's wrong?"

He answered with an exhausted voice, "I felt like a mountain was pressing down on me. Her gaze is extremely penetrating. Even if she seemed relaxed, I felt like a predator was watching me when speaking with her."

The woman massaged his stiff shoulders, and feeling the hard muscles under her hand, she whispered seductively. "How about another round to let off that tension~?"

The man felt a rush of excitement, turned, and pounced on the woman. Both of them fell on the guest couch and began their round. Their session was more intense than normal since, even if he had felt mainly fear, he was also extremely aroused at Yasenia's seductive beauty.

The delightful cries of a woman and grunts of a man spread in the office for a big part of the night.
