âWhat? You want to borrow the Umbrella of Destiny?â
Eustace was instantly infuriated by the womanâs request. âDo you know what the Umbrella of Destiny is
for? Now that Lorelei is trapped in the Troop Raising Pond, can you ensure that you wonât end up with
the same fate? Whoâs going to be responsible if the umbrella is left in there?â
The woman knew that Eustace was a cruel man, but she didnât expect him to be this cruel, especially
when her sister had been so considerate of him, to the point of total devotion. Yet now, he was spewing
such harsh words despite them just requesting for a tool and not asking him to go in there to save her.
âYoung Lord, my sister is still in there. She might be waiting for us to save her. The umbrella is honestly
just a tool. Do you have to be so cruel? Are you really not going to save her when she needs help?â
âWhat did you say?â Enraged, Eustace slapped her right across the face. âAre you trying to commit
treason? When did you get the courage to speak to me so disrespectfully?â
âLorelei was the one who lost the Great Star Pill, so sheâs the one responsible for finding it for me! And
this is the Umbrella of Destiny weâre speaking of! It carries the will of the Gods! If you lose it, you and
the lives of all your sisters wouldnât be enough to redeem your sins!â
In the end, the woman could only return to her sisters gloomily.
âThe young lord is not willing to lend it to us?â
âUgh. To be honest, Iâd already figured that that was the case. There was no way heâd lend it to us.â
âWhatever. We have more important matters at hand! Letâs go and save Big Sis.â
âThird Sis, Fourth Sis, follow me. If⦠If we canât get out either, the rest of you shouldnât try saving us.
That will be all.â

Whooshâ¦
The moon gate opened once again, but no Yakshas rushed out this time. The three looked at one
another and dashed in.
Inside, Edgar sensed something and looked towards the gate. Bjorne then turned to Lorelei. âLooks like
the seed hasnât given up on the pill yet. Bjorne sent another three of your sisters.â

Lorelei looked over as well, but the mist was too thick. The fog here was even thicker than outside. She
was shocked. âHow did you know thereâs three of them?â
Edgar replied dismissively. âI saw it.â
Edgar
Alex
âYou saw it? But⦠The ominous Chi mist⦠Can you see through it?â
âHuh? Of course not. I mean that I sensed them. Itâs one of my powers, similar to divine consciousness.
I can learn some basic information from it.â Edgar immediately changed his narrative, or he would be
obviously telling her that he had seen their naked bodies when he first came here.
Edgar
Alex
Lorelei had her doubts, but she believed him anyway.
Just then, Edgar said, âDo you want to save your sisters? Letâs have them join me. They can abandon
their wrong ways and do good from now on.â
Edgar
Alex
âYou want me to commit treason? Thatâs impossible.â
âThen Iâll just have to use my previous method.â
Lorelei was speechless.
A short while later, Lorelei saw that her sisters had come, and she quickly shook her head at Edgar.
âThey are my second, third, and fourth sisters. You canât use that method on them.â
Edgar
Alex
âWhy not?â
âThatâs because they are extremely devoted to the young lord, especially my second sister. She had
signed a soul contract with him, so thereâs no way sheâll betray him. If she does, all that awaits her is
death.â
âCan I kill them?â
Loreleiâ s eyes were filled with rage. âItâs not like theyâve offended you! If you do that, Iâll make sure you
pay, even if I have to die for it!â
Edgar chuckled coldly. âDonât worry, you canât make me pay even if you die! But itâs fine. Iâll let them go
since theyâre so pretty. But if they come looking for trouble, you canât possibly blame me for defending
myself.â
Edgar
Alex
Bjorne wouldnât let such great potential go to waste.
