Chapter 449: "He Cheated Behind Your Back?

Chapter 449: Chapter 210: “He Cheated Behind Your Back?

Although he didn’t think he would run into Daeli on this trip to Austin Castle, out of habit, he still prepared for the worst. What if he actually did run into her?

He had to come up with an excuse in advance.

Fortunately, the one who had come to the New World with him this time was Elise, not Elvire.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to talk his way out of it, even if he had a hundred mouths.

As things stood, Daeli knew her younger sister had a boyfriend, but she didn’t know that boyfriend was him. Sean figured Elvire probably wouldn’t have gone out of her way to describe her boyfriend to her sister. Therefore, even if Daeli recognized him as Carl Black, she wouldn’t connect him with being Elvire’s boyfriend.

Thinking about it this way, Sean felt the situation might not be as difficult to handle as he had imagined.

As long as he kept his cool, didn’t mention Elvire, and pretended not to know her well, Daeli would never guess his relationship with her.

“Hmm… That’s the plan!”

Sean now knew what he had to do.

However, the reality was far more complicated than he thought.

The person who had asked the vendor about the whereabouts of Fan Ke’er and the others the day before was Diana.

She had already arrived at Austin Castle.

「Meanwhile, in the Farm World.」

「The residential district of Alola Town.」

On the sofa where Sean and Elise were in Meditation, there was now a third person.

Sean had overlooked one thing.

The flow of time in the New World and the Farm World was almost identical. The few days he and Elise had spent in the New World were also a few days passed in the Farm World.

This meant that he had been out of Elvire’s sight for a long time.

At first, Elvire didn’t think much of it. After all, just the night before, she had a small argument with Sean over the Eleanor Sisters. Sean was terrible at appeasing people and was hopelessly proud, so it was normal for him not to take the initiative to contact her.

As for Elise…

Perhaps she was busy with something.

Elise wasn’t just one of her people; she was also a member of the Dawn Council and often received missions from them. Usually, if Elise didn’t bring it up, Elvire wouldn’t ask. She just assumed Elise was handling personal affairs and would contact her when she was finished.

So, when both of them disappeared at the same time, Elvire wasn’t too concerned, and it never crossed her mind that the two of them would be together.

But when the second and then the third day passed, and Sean still hadn’t come to see her, that was a different story. It was one thing for him to be too proud to meet in person, but he hadn’t even sent her a text or called. Elvire couldn’t stand it anymore. She decided to take the initiative to find Sean and make up… no, to confront him and make that guy realize his mistake.

If only she hadn’t gone looking for him.

The moment she did, Elvire discovered that guy was actually in Dual Cultivation with Elise!

“Sean, Elise…”

“You two bastards!”

Staring at the shameless pair on the sofa, Elvire gritted her teeth in fury, her doe-like eyes blazing with rage.

In the corner, Eleanor and Elise stood stiff and silent, not daring to even breathe.

They hadn’t wanted to let Elvire into the house in the first place.

Elvire had knocked several times, but they didn’t open the door, pretending they were out and not at home.

But how could Elvire be so easily fooled?

A quick question to the old Gatekeeper was all it took to learn that Sean hadn’t left the house at all these past few days.

Elvire used the Wall-Piercing Spell Sean had taught her to get inside. By the time Eleanor and Elise, who were in meditative Cultivation, realized what was happening, it was too late. And so, this scene unfolded—

“Miss Flame Crow, please let me explain…”

Elise tried to make excuses for Sean, but Elvire cut her off before she could finish.

“There’s no need to explain.”

“And if there were, you’re not the one who should be explaining.”

Elvire clenched her fists, her eyes spitting fire. She wished she could just punch them both, one for each of them, and hammer the shameless pair awake.

But the thought that such a forceful “awakening” might damage Sean and Elise’s souls made her hold back. She didn’t strike.

But not striking didn’t mean she would let Sean and Elise off the hook.

She was going to find those two herself and demand an explanation!

“Before I wake up, if anyone calls looking for me, answer it for me. Tell them I’m not here, that I’ve gone to kill someone.”

Elvire threw her phone onto the coffee table, sat down directly between Sean and Elise, closed her eyes, and entered the New World.

Eleanor and Elise glanced at each other, seeing the despair in each other’s eyes.

‘We’re doomed.’

‘Master is going to die…’

…

「The New World.」

「Medanzo Flame Territory, Blazing Angel Castle.」

The last time Elvire logged off, she was at home, so naturally, she logged on at home this time as well.

She stormed out of her room in a fury, startling the maid Daeli had specifically assigned to stand guard outside her door.

“Young Miss, you’re back…?”

“Mhm. Take me to my sister,” Elvire said.

“Y-Yes, ma’am,” the maid hastily replied, leading the way.

She could tell Elvire was very angry, but she didn’t dare ask any questions. She quickly led the young woman to the study.

She knocked gently on the door and announced, “Clan Leader, the Young Miss has returned and wishes to see you.”

Inside, Daeli, who had been vexed over business matters, felt her brow instantly relax. She put down the contract in her hand and said, “Come in.”

“Yes, ma’am.” The maid respectfully opened the door for Elvire.

As soon as Elvire entered the room, she declared, “Sister, help me find two people!”

“Find people?” Daeli was taken aback.

She had thought her little sister would hug her like last time and say she missed her.

“What’s wrong? Who made you so angry?” Daeli patted the table, gesturing for the young woman to come and sit.

Elvire sat down across from her, bit her lip, and said, “A shameless couple.”
