"Let's go out and take a look!"
As expected, it was someone I knew well. Peppa looked even fatter than before, so it seems she's been living a good life lately.
"Tifa, have you thought this through? Marry me, and I'll help you build a better mercenary group. There's no future in following that Ellie."
Paige was startled to see Ellie's pet appear before him. His father, the city lord, had warned him not to cause them any trouble, especially that slime.
"Ellie, are you in there? No matter what, I'm going to marry Tifa!" Paige stared into the doorway, but Ellie wasn't there. She guessed that what happened last time had left her traumatized.
"You're that Paige? With your looks, do you think you're good enough for my Tifa?" Freya interrupted, and the guards near Paige immediately felt a chill run down their spines.
"And who are you? You stinking woman, if you're not good-looking, don't come out here and embarrass yourself!" Paige still acted like she was fearless.
"Haha, after publicly insulting the Imperial Knight Commander, it seems I can take action now. How should I do it?" Freya chuckled as she fiddled with her staff, facing the group.
"Young master, be careful, she's a mage!" someone whispered a warning, but Freya's magic had already arrived, and everyone wailed and collapsed to the ground.
This area was in a relatively remote location and did not attract the attention of the city guards.
"You bitch, I'm the city lord's son, aren't you afraid of losing your head?"
"Look at this! A Knight Commander enforcing the law. Your city lord father can't possibly govern me, can he?" Freya waved the token in her hand, still waiting for Luo Fan's decision, when some more people flew over, dressed in the clothes of the Temple of Fire.
The one leading the group was the same middle-aged man who had provoked them earlier.
"Young master, let's retreat first, we are no match for her!" someone shouted, and Paige immediately tore open several scrolls, and a healing light enveloped them.
Paige got up from the ground, took a few steps back, and activated the communication stone in his hand. He didn't want to leave in such a humiliating way.
"I told you, I will not marry you. I am now Viscount Ellie's butler, and you have no right to interfere with my freedom!" Tifa shouted. After Luo Fan's analysis, her emotions had stabilized.
"Heh, you lowly commoner, don't think I won't lay a hand on you just because you brought up Ellie." Paige glared at them fiercely. He hated Ellie intensely; he was kicked out because of her.
As soon as his reinforcements arrive, he'll capture Tifa and slowly dismantle Ellie's power. As for that beautiful Emil, he'd received warnings beforehand; many powerful forces were keeping an eye on her.
Another thunderstorm struck, and even though Paige activated several defensive scrolls this time, they were all defeated by Freya.
"You stinky woman, are you ever going to stop?!" Paige was forced to lie on the ground again, feeling extremely embarrassed. Why hadn't her reinforcements arrived yet?
"Miss Freya, what are you doing here?" A middle-aged man who had been watching from the side spoke up. Emil had actually appeared here.
"What, my own mercenary group won't let me come back?" Freya glanced at the other party and summoned her Thunderbird.
The middle-aged man was speechless for a moment, and then turned to Emil.
"Emil, your father has been deposed from his position as head of the family by the old patriarch. They have agreed to marry you to my son. Come with us!"
"You! I will never marry into your family! Besides, I've already joined the princess's adventure team. If you want to take my pet, just say so. Why beat around the bush like this?"
"Also, my pet isn't with me. If you want to find my elf, dream on!" Luo Fan had just sent her a telepathic message, venting his emotions to his heart's content, without worrying about what would happen next.
He had just informed Toria through his clone left in the house that helpers would be coming soon.
"You~," the middle-aged man was immediately enraged, but seeing Freya glaring at him from the side and two patrolling mages approaching from the sky, he did not make a move directly.
"You brat, this is your family's decision, you can't refuse."
“If you want to take a corpse, then you can try.” Emil hardened and pulled out the scroll that Luo Fan had given her from her bosom.
"Emil, don't be so stubborn!" A chill ran down everyone's spine as they saw the newly appeared ice-elemental forbidden spell scroll. If it detonated, they would be crippled or killed. The Ice Cream Mercenary Group actually had such a trump card!
"If you want to fight, then fight! Stop talking nonsense! Is your Vulcan Temple only good at bullying the weak?" Freya jumped onto the Thunderbird, glaring at them menacingly.
With the forbidden spell controlling the field, they dared not act rashly.
Just then, Paige's reinforcements arrived. Two mages flew to Paige's side and cautiously observed the situation.
At this moment, even Peppa Pig remained silent; if not handled properly, her life could be in danger.
"What are you all doing here!" A high mage riding a frost wolf flew over. It turned out to be an acquaintance of Luo Fan's, Principal Brian of the Sacred Heart Magic Academy.
The old principal has actually made a breakthrough; that's good news.
"Sir, we have some personal matters to attend to!" The middle-aged man lowered his tone as he returned to the front of the group on the ground.
"You've gone too far by involving forbidden spells in your private affairs! And Emil, put that scroll away!"
“Yes, Principal!” Emil said respectfully.
The old headmaster watched Luo Fan's figure. How did this troublemaker reach level 50 already! Wherever he is, nothing good ever comes of it.
"I don't care what your grudges are. If you want to fight, go to the arena. If you don't want to fight, then leave!" Brian flew to the ground and walked to Emil's side.
"Tell me, what exactly happened?"
Freya returned to the ground and looked at Paige and the others who were still healing. She waved her staff, which startled them so much that they ran away.
Emil explained, looking somewhat dejected; she had been abandoned by her own family.
Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man from the Vulcan Temple immediately understood what was going on; those people were clearly acquaintances!
"Emily, since the engagement is already done, I'll bring your father to see you next time!" With that, they turned and left.
Seeing this, Peppa was also taken away, and the scene immediately quieted down.
Inside the manor, Brian learned more about the situation; Emil's matter was indeed difficult to handle. Exploring the Elf Realm, fire elves were indeed very useful, but wood elves were the best.
The wood elf is controlled by a wood-type family, and their strength is considerable, especially within the Elf Realm. However, finding the Fountain of Life is another matter entirely; the elf is merely a pass to the other side.
Even so, people are still very interested in finding the spirits.
"Lofan, what are your plans?" Brian looked at the slime on Emil's shoulder, having heard that he had only recently returned.
"He said, 'Why don't we blow up their stronghold and send those guys packing?'" Freya said excitedly, repeating Luo Fan's words.
"You'd better shut up and stop causing us trouble. This is a critical time!" Blaine immediately bristled and glared.
Sure enough, this guy is still as unreliable as ever.
