Chapter 861 The Jealous Lady (1)

“Nee, Yuki-chan~ Why are you so cold, but cool? You’re like a cooler in this rather hot weather.” Minako suddenly wanted to hug her new friend.

Unfortunately, Yuki put her hand on Minako’s face and prevented the girl from approaching her further. “We’re not close enough. Don’t get too close to me.”

“So meanie... Nee, Erina-chan. Do you think this event was held a bit abruptly? We got a notification two days ago and all the talented generations were asked to attend the Tokyo area. Something must be weird, especially those higher-ups of the Association Esper.” Minako pouted, then glanced to the right and left. She could find many experts around the circuit now, too many for a gathering like this.

“Mm, that’s a bit strange. However, I feel like they’re watching someone, but who. Ellie, do you know something? My clan’s people are only in the stands there, but those experts are really suspicious.” Erina twirled a handful of her hair. She also felt a bit confused.

“Hmm, they’re elites from other superpower countries. It’s only natural after everything that happened. We get free bodyguards as a matter of facts.” Elysia could guess the reason behind the presence of those experts, but she didn’t expect their number to be more than a hundred.

“Elysia-chan, they are watching over you and Aria from afar, right? You guys are so cute and sweet, but your background really makes them nervous, hehe~” Minako covered her mouth as she giggled lightly.

The girls around her became interested in the fact and waited for Minako to speak.

“What do you mean by that?” Yuki raised her eyebrows. She also felt that something was wrong, and she would make Minako speak.

“Hehe, the key is over there, but why are you looking at me like that? I mean no harm. Anyway, Yuki~ How’s your little brother? I heard he fell into a coma, and that’s why you finished the rest of your last mission alone.” Minako patted her cheek to pretend to be innocent. She immediately changed the topic of the conversation.

“He is my junior brother, not my little brother. He was conscious before I came to Tokyo two days ago. However, his body received a physical trauma from being attacked by a powerful group. Why do you know that?” Yuki felt a little suspicious.

“Hey, I’m the second daughter of the Taira Clan. Your mission was still in Japan, and it was only natural for us to know about it. Erina’s clan also knows a lot more than me. However, why was your junior brother attacked? It’s just him, and you can go all right? I think he offended them.” Minako shrugged her shoulders.

“It is still beyond my understanding. Maybe, my junior brother did offend those powerful experts, but he admitted that he had never offended anyone.” Yuki shook her head and heaved a subtle sigh. She released cold air from her mouth subconsciously.

“Is it like that? Do you remember the situation before he was attacked by the mentioned powerful experts? They must have said something, right? You can come back unharmed. There must be a reason and a clue. Worry not, I’ll help you unravel the mystery. .” Minako put on her sunglasses and hat. She was acting like a detective now.

“Hmm...” Yuki was a bit skeptical for a moment, but she figured Minako might find out something from a glimmer of the truth. “They said something like... You shouldn’t have participated.”

“You shouldn’t be participating? Uh-huh? You junior brother might be participating in something and that makes the powerful experts have to move? Hmm, he obviously joined in on something, but he’s silent about it. Has your sect tried to interrogate him? It’s bad if he offends a powerful organization.” Minako patted her chin and tried to guess.

“No one dares to challenge my sect.” Yuki responded with firm words, but she soon regained her composure. “However, they haven’t interrogated him yet.”

‘Master Elysia, there are some people who have unusual innate abilities. They try to assess our power. Three of the younger generation, including Minako.’ Rhea checked on some of the people who occasionally stole glances at them.

‘Minako, that boy, and that old man, right? Hmm, there are a lot of promising people here. No wonder Japan became one of the superpower countries, the part of the top ten.’ Elysia didn’t feel too worried. She knew those people wouldn’t get anything by checking her or Rhea.

“Nee, Elysia-chan, what do you think?” Minako suddenly dragged Elysia into the conversation. She did it on purpose and smiled in anticipation of what kind of response Elysia would give.

“Hmm? My apologies, I didn’t follow your private conversation because I was too busy watching the race event.” Elysia was a bit taken aback, but she still answered calmly.

Minako then pouted because her plan was slightly broken, but she didn’t back down quickly. She explained about Yuki’s junior brother and then asked Elysia’s opinion.

“I feel like you’re asking the wrong person. I can’t help you with this, but it looks like Yuki-san’s junior brother has indeed participated in an event he shouldn’t have participated in. He was lucky enough to be able to leave with only minor injuries.” Elysia only delivered general comments with a straightforward opinion.

“You won’t cooperate, huh. I’m not a trouble-loving princess if I fail to get you to speak the truth. Elysia-chan, you- hmmm!” Minako smiled like a sly fox, but a bun suddenly shuts her mouth.

“Please stop right there. What are you trying to achieve by doing this? Do you think you can dig up something by acting like that, Minako-sama? If you do live up to your title, were you involved in the disaster-level event since last month?” Elysia smiled innocently, but her gaze was cold. She knew Minako wanted to provoke something but didn’t like it.

“Oops, looks like I made you angry? However, you must know something, right? Why don’t you talk and help enlighten Yuki? No harm, I’m good.” Minako made a V hand sign. She then devoured the bread that was previously stuffed into her mouth.

“...” Elysia responded in silence. She also ignored the ice-cold girl’s expectant gaze.

However, she tapped her smartphone quickly and gestured for Yuki to come closer.

Yuki considered her decision for a moment, then she went over it. She read the text on Elysia’s smartphone and was stunned in surprise.

[He shouldn’t have participated in that death match event. Our friends helped him out of death, but he was already involved with those demonic activities. We are under the law and justice enforcer’s mission to stop that event at that time. What will you do after knowing this?]

“What?” Yuki widened her eyes and looked into Elysia’s face once more. It was hard to believe this lovely young girl knew so much about things that had bugged her mind the last few days. If that was the fact, then she had difficulty swallowing that information.

“You can believe it or not. Please find out the facts for yourself.” Elysia waved her hand.

*Bzzt* *Bzzzt*

Elysia’s smartphone suddenly vibrated. She read the incoming message, and it was from Hong Ju-Won. He informed her that he had just arrived at the location.

*Vroom* *Vroom*

Two fancy cars entered the circuit area, but their license plates were for the South Korean region, not Japan. Hong Ju-Won, clearly indicated his group was not from Japan but came to a gathering event only for Japanese youngsters?

“Ah, what is he thinking? I told him to come with local vehicle, right?” Elysia held her forehead when the newcomers immediately received cynical and somewhat offensive stares from many people.

“You told him a bit late, Ely. He probably thought it was just a suggestion rather than an order. Anyway, he won’t get into trouble because he didn’t come to make one for himself.” Rhea checked Elysia’s smartphone and smiled in amusement.

“Hey, what do those Koreans want by coming here? I thought this event was only attended by Japanese people?”

“Shut up, you idiot. This may be a gathering event for Japanese young generation, but look around us. I can see there are at least a hundred foreigners who are definitely not Japanese.”

“Oh, you’re right. However, they are spectators, not participants. See, those luxury cars enter the circuit.”

“Hmm, are you saying those newcomers are Korean youths who came to spy on us?”

“Tsk, let’s see who comes. If they are arrogant, we can give them some etiquette and manners, hehe.”

The youngsters muttered amongst each other. Their intentions were not too friendly to the newly arrived cars.

An attractive lady clad in a fancy dress got out of her car. Her beautiful appearance immediately got the forgiveness of some boys. However, a ‘white face’ boy also got out of the exact vehicle as that attractive lady. Due to some personal reason, that boy instantly became a public enemy even though he did nothing.

The jealous boys had marked several male attendees who came or were close to at least one girl, but now it has increased by one.

“...” The Korean beauty used a phone to call someone, and she could hear the incoming call noises coming from one of the VIP stands. She then returned that phone to Hong Ju-Won and went straight to the place.

“Hello, may I know the purpose of your coming here? Do you speak Japanese?” Karin rushed over to the newcomers to say hello.

“I just came to see a courtesan.” The Korean beauty walked past the girl blocking her and went to the VIP stands.

“Ahn Ye-Jin, show your manners. I allow you to come with one condition, remember?” Hong Ju-Won frowned. Unfortunately, Ahn Ye-Jin ignored him and kept walking.

“Yeah, who would have thought the young boss, the most talented one could be overwhelmed with his girl. If you don’t stop her, she can go berserk out of jealousy. She feels threatened because you often talk about Lady Elysia, my friend.” Sung Se-Yeon put his arm around his friend’s shoulder and reminded his friend of the most important thing.

“Damn! She just won’t listen.” Hong Ju-Won clicked his tongue and rushed over to the VIP stands.

“Are you the one named Lady Elysia?” Ahn Ye-Jin approached a long black hair girl with dazzling icy blue eyes. She examined this cold-looking beauty and that white frosty pattern blue dress from top to bottom.

“You got the wrong person. Please leave if you come just to cause trouble.” Yuki squinted her eyes. She could feel malicious intent from this newcomer.

“No?” Ahn Ye-Jin lowered her sunglasses a bit and glanced at the other girls. She checked everyone before her eyes fell on a little girl with turquoise hair holding a phone.

“That’s impossible, right?” Ahn Ye-Jin was shocked. She suddenly turned around and grabbed Hong Ju-Won’s collar as if want to kill him. “Ju-Won, you bastard! You already have an amazingly mature beautiful girl like me, but you’re after an underage girl!? You lolicon bear, damn pedophile, please just die!”

“Wait, what? What do you mean!?” Hong Ju-Won instantly released Ahn Ye-Jin’s threatening grip. He was taken aback by this unreasonable accusation.
