Chapter 360: Clover's Extended Background

....

{[Additional Information:]}

[Clover was born on a Tortalion on the Sixteenth Floor, and since she was even old enough to think for herself, she has been used and abused by those of the same race.]

[She was abandoned when she turned 2 years old and was an orphan for the first 13 years of her life.]

[After Clover turned 14, she escaped the orphanage that let indescribably terrible things happen to her, and for the next 4 years of her life, she was on the run, attempting to escape the mercenaries that were sent after her.]

[When she turned 18, she was able to successfully negate the chase of the mercenaries due to her age being above the 'jurisdiction' of the orphanage.]

[She was able to attract the attention of an elder at the Early Stages of Void Refining.]

[Clover thought she had finally escaped her life as a tool and item to be used however her kind felt like using her, and she was right in thinking that she escaped.]

[At least that was the case for the first 15 years after she turned 18. But after she reached the age of 33, something seemed to change in the elder who was training her, as it seemed like he could no longer hold back his urges, and the rest... well, I'm sure one could infer what happened next]

[She was once again thrown into a pit of despair where she was tainted by the elder and his elder friends, as they used her whichever way they so wished]

[After 200 years of a life full of misery, she was ultimately able to amass enough strength to strike back at those elders. Her strength at that time was around the Middle Stages of the Void Refining Realm.]

[Clover tortured and killed those despicable scum before she left the sect that had held her under 'house arrest' for hundreds of years.]

[She was free! She could do whatever and be whoever she wanted after she left!]

[And just as she was about to kill herself and be done with it, a certain man with long raven black hair and a majestic countenance had blown a hole into the black sphere that she was forced to tag along in as a 'Trophy doll' for one of the High-Rank Monster Kings to show off.]

[That man was nothing short of an angel who descended from the heavens for Clover! Of course, she was nervous and a little apprehensive in the beginning, but after coming to know and understand him, she fell in love with him]

[Clover had met many men in her life; however, none were like Azmond. All the other men saw her as nothing but an item or commodity to be passed around the table. But he was different...]

[He talked to her for her, not for the body she possessed.]

[Clover found the person she wanted to spend the rest of her life with, but she didn't know how to approach the matter, so she simply hid away in the background, throwing furtive glances at him in an attempt to get his attention.

[You see, she wasn't as outgoing or wanton as her 'Sister Harem Wives', so her way of acquiring his attention was quite slow, and practically got her no closer to making him see her the way she saw him.]

[But after obtaining a way to become even stronger, she thought she had finally found a way to have his eyes on her and only her, so she tried her hardest to fight all the Monster Slaves and tyrannical Monster Lords that she could!]

[And although she had not gained any noticeable results, she thought she had inched a little closer to his heart]

[just a little bit]

"Hmm"

Azmond looked over the latest system interface, and also the longest one, as he was honestly a little taken aback after perusing through Clovers background information.

His gaze softened as he looked in the direction of a gorgeous bunnkin woman and thought, 'I had no clue she had such a tragic life before she entered that black sphere'
