In Jonford, both major and minor families as well as businesses held
a certain fear of Hera. Skadi’s close rtionship with her was
practically public knowledge. Yet, despite her somewhat assertive
personality, Skadi was never one to start conflicts.
“I don’t know him. He seems to be from Brume,” Skadi said thr gh
tears.
“Where are you?”
“Crystal Spring!”
Hera ended the call, her expression as cold as ice as she left her office. Outside, two rows of
bodyguards, dressed in suits and leather shoes, stood ready. They were all Robin’srades, each
capable of taking on ten men.
“To Crystal Spring!” Heramanded, her voice icy.
Robin cocked his head, and the formidable group followed Hera out.
Crystal Spring was a famous restaurant in Jonford. Skadi and Bianca had nned to dine there with a
few friends. However, a drunk man mistakenly entered their private room. When he saw so many
attractive women, lust immediately fueled him.
He began to harass Skadi, going as far as to touch her
inappropriately. This provoked Skadi’s fiery temper, and she reacted by pping him across the face. It
left the drunk man seething with
anger.
He then went back to his private room and called over arge group
of people. Skadi and Bianca made their move, easily defeating the crowd as they were no match for
them.
The group then called a young man from Brume who brought four
grandmasters with him. Skadi and Bianca stood no chance against these grandmasters.
They had no choice but to swallow their pride and endure a few ps.
Unwilling to ept this treatment, Skadi decided to call for help. The
young man, Hans Tattle, smirked and said, “I’ll give you a chance. I
hope the friends you call can impress me!”
This man was the eldest son of a martial arts family in Brume who
hade to Jonford to visit his girlfriend, who was studying at Jonford University. The person who got
beaten was his girlfriend’s brother. Naturally, he feltpelled to seek revenge for his brother-in-
Skadi thought about calling Cillian at first, but since he seemed to be
on the verge of a breakthrough, she did not want to disturb him.
Instead, she called Hera.
Hans sat back leisurely, sipping red wine before lifting his handsome face and saying, “I’ll give you a
chance now. Kneel and apologize to my brother-inw. Then, we’ll let this go.”
“No! I want them to spend the night with me!” Hans’ brother-inw demanded, pointing at Skadi and
then at Bianca. They were the most beautiful in the room. He thought about how delightful it would be if
he could have them both.
Hans frowned slightly. He had some disdain for forcing women to
3.4
sleep with someone. Otherwise, he would have already dumped his girlfriend.
His brother-inw rubbed his swollen face and pleaded, “Hans,e on. Help me this one time. I
promise I’ll do anything you say from now
on!”
Hans hesitated, but considering the recent conflicts with his
Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
girlfriend, he thought his brother-inw might be able to give him
some advice. His father had also won over his mother by first gaining
the support of her family, after all.
After some internal conflict, Hans turned to Skadi and Bianca and
said, “Spend the night with my brother-inw and I’ll give each of you
a million.”
The moment the words left his mouth, the door of the private room was violently kicked open.
Hera stared directly at the young man in the white suit seated in the
center imposingly. She spoke in an icy tone, “Are you the one who hit my best friend?”
“Are you the help she called for?” Hans nced at the group of bodyguards behind the woman and
chuckled softly. “No wonder you’re so confident. You have so many powerful bodyguards!”
Hans’ brother-inw was immediately struck by Hera’s beauty. He thought the two young women were
already pretty, but the one they called for help was even more stunning. He could not help himself.
He had to get this woman into bed.
Adjusting his cor, he stepped forward with a smile. “Hey there, pretty-”
With a loud smack, Hera pped him across the face and sent him
crashing into the wall. A few of his teeth shattered into several pieces.
