Chapter 39: My Husband

Chapter 39: My Husband

The people who lived inside the Core Region were the strongest people within the sect.

Even if all the Elders of the Sect were to join forces, they couldn't defeat a single Great Elder.

That's why the Guards weren't needed here.

The guards only guarded the entrance of the core region as they didn't think that someone was going to be foolish enough to enter the Courtyard of a Great Elder.

Unfortunately for them, there was one person who broke all norms.

Eren stood at the entrance of the Courtyard which he had selected.

He tried to open the door but the gate didn't even budge. It was locked from inside.

He walked around the place to look for a window, but there was none there. There was only a small opening which was probably to let fresh air flow inside.

"Should I break the door? If it's Xiu Ying, she won't mind. But if it's someone else..."

He thought about breaking the door for a moment. But he quickly dropped the idea.

"Celeste, I think it's time for you to help me."

He looked at Celeste who was resting in his pocket.

Celeste raised her cute little head innocently, as if asking what she had to do.

"Are you looking at the opening?" Eren pointed at the small opening for the air.

It was too small for him. But when it came to Celeste, it was the perfect entrance.

"I want you to enter from there and open the door from inside."

Eren gave her some instructions while telling her to be extremely careful to not be seen by anyone.

As long as Celestria wasn't seen by anyone, no one could sense her presence. It was the same for him ever since he received Aura Control Method from the system as a reward.

'Huh?!'

Eren's face went pale and his jaw dropped as he looked at the person who was showering inside.

Inside, there was a woman. She wasn't wearing any clothes and her back was facing him.

Drops of water glistened on her smooth skin, creating a mesmerizing sight. But Eren didn't have the time to appreciate the sight before him. Because he was able to see the hair color of that woman.

It wasn't the hair color of Great Elder Xiu Ying. Instead, it was the hair color of the Sect Master!

Eren's heart stopped beating for a moment as soon as he came to the realization!

He had selected the Courtyard! This one didn't belong to Xiu Ying. It belonged to the Sect Master of the Great Demon Sect!

It belonged to one of the four Overlords. And now he was looking at her bare body! If he was discovered, getting chopped into a thousand pieces could only be described as a merciful fate!

....

At the same time, in the courtyard that Eren hadn't selected, a woman was lying on the bed.

Her entire room was covered in portraits of a man. She had drawn these portraits herself.

If one was to see her bedroom, they would have thought that she was obsessed with the man.

The man in those portraits was none other than Eren.

There were hundreds of portraits, and presently, she was drawing one more portrait of the man she loved.

She was someone who made others fall in love with her. But this time, she was in love with someone else.

She wanted to go to that man right away! She wanted to make that man belong to only her!

Unfortunately, she was punished by the Sect Master and wasn't allowed to leave her house.

She could easily leave as there was no seal placed on her, but she knew that there were consequences if she did that.

She could only wait until her punishment was over, before going to find her lover.

"Soon, your wife will come to you..." She said, gazing at the portrait that she was drawing. "My husband."
