CHAPTER 901: CHAPTER 901: AS IF HE WANTS TO DEVOUR HER WHOLE

Lune glanced over and saw that Raina North wasn’t looking too well. Instead of saying anything, she called a waiter and asked for a glass of hot water.

It’s said that girls have those few days, and at such times, drinking more hot water is good.

Elias Hawthorne approached at this moment and asked Lune, "What’s wrong with her?"

Lune shook her head and then whispered, "She just wants some peace and quiet."

Elias nodded, "Thank you for taking care of her."

"It’s no trouble; she is my..." Seeing many people looking their way, Lune swallowed the words she was about to say and cautiously expressed, "It’s the least I could do."

The look in Elias’s dark eyes softened involuntarily as he gazed at Lune. No wonder Raina was so fond of this child; she was truly considerate.

After Lune left, Elias signaled a waiter to bring a new dish: "You must be hungry."

"Even if I’m hungry, I have to bear it, right? The Nameless Lord’s fight is more important, and if I was affected and couldn’t get food, then it’s our own fault, a contribution we should make."

"You’re definitely starving. Here, have some pastries to tide you over."

Raina looked at the plate in front of her, filled with her favorite pastries, and couldn’t help but ask, "What’s going on? Why on earth would you start a fight with that lunatic Corvus Hades! Do you know everyone’s gossiping that you fought over a roast suckling pig!"

Elias couldn’t help but glance at Raina and said, "Actually, described like that, it’s not entirely wrong."

"..." Raina: "Do you really think I’m an idiot?"

"How could I? In my eyes, you are incredibly clever."

Raina rolled her eyes dramatically and jabbed Elias, "Hey, are you really not going to tell the truth?"

Elias held Raina’s finger in his palm: "That is the truth. I did get heated with Emperor Hades over the roast suckling pig, but it’s because it’s a peerless delicacy. Once you’ve tasted it, you can’t let go."

Raina: "..."

"For some reason, I feel like there’s an innuendo here." And the subject of the innuendo seemed to be herself, mainly because Elias was looking at her like a roast suckling pig, as if he wanted to eat her in one bite.

Forget it.

Raina couldn’t be bothered to argue further. After all, the fight was already over, and there was no way sticking to it would change anything.

Afterwards, everything calmed down.

After eating a few bites of pastry, Raina wandered around the hall with Elias, and by then, the damage in the banquet hall had already been repaired.

Throughout the hall filled with elegant music, there was an atmosphere of noble elegance.

Raina, under the guise of Rise, reintroduced herself to people she had already met before, collecting a whole bunch of business cards.

Changing her face and appearing in front of everyone under another identity, watching their different reactions, was actually quite an interesting experience.

After the banquet ended, Raina and Elias didn’t stay behind but prepared to leave.

According to the tradition of the Martial Arts Conference, during the event, the host would prepare accommodation for everyone.

The living environment was actually quite nice. After all, this was the top event in The Umbral Zone, but not many chose to stay. For the big shots of major forces, who among them doesn’t have a main residence in Aethelgard?

However, the main reason for not staying was the innate wariness and customary precaution. While living together is convenient, it also makes it easier for someone with ill intentions to wipe out all the big shots at once.

And this wasn’t mere paranoia; it had happened before. Once, the leaders from the central region of The Umbral Zone were nearly wiped out.
