"Oh!" Richard was stunned for a moment. He found Severin's request a little strange. Rather than accepting several hundred thousand, Severin's request was to stay at his place for a few days. He looked Severin from head to toe and finally nodded in agreement. "No problem!""I came here to find an organization called Canis Hall," Severin said. "I can leave if you have any information about them or know where to find them. I myself am not too sure how long I will stay in Wymount City!"Severin smiled wryly and asked Richard again, "Have you heard of them? Or better yet, do you know them?""Canis… Hall?" Richard seemed a little confused when he heard that. "Do you spell it like anus… but with a C?"Severin's expression became a little stiff and he finally explain to them. "Replace the 'U' with an 'I'. C-A-N-I-S. The Latin word for dog."The two elders behind him could not hold their laughter back anymore and began cackling like madmen."Control yourselves!" Although Richard wanted t
Severin's words made the old man fume in anger. He looked at Severin and said, "That's easy for you to say. What if something happens to her? Can you afford to bear the consequences?"Severin answered with a dry smile, "Firstly, she would have been dead already if they wanted to kill her. I offered to help only when I heard her calling for help. If their intention had been to bring Miss Chelsea away, then they would almost certainly refrain from killing her right away!"Following a pause, Severin continued, "Secondly, if I can't protect her, then I'm afraid no one in your family will be able to protect her.""Hehe, that's a rather bold remark from you!" the other elder said with a chuckle. "This young man here must be a strong individual then!"Richard thought for a moment before smiling at Severin. "Our two elders have very high attainment. If you can defeat one of them with ease, then I'll entrust my daughter to your protection."Severin was stunned for a moment. "I'll leave it
Richard and the second elder were standing behind the grand-elder, and they were both shocked when they heard that remark. It had never crossed their minds that Severin would contain such strength at a young age."The villa that my daughter is staying at has several empty rooms, so you might as well just stay in the same villa as her. Rest assured, we'll send our men to help you find out any information about Canis Hall. My daughter will probably be out shopping in the next couple of days, so I'll leave her safety in your hands. I trust that she will be safe as long as you're beside her!" Richard said after snapping out of his initial shock."Dad..." Chelsea was speechless, and she bit her red lips subconsciously while rolling her eyes at her father. She had gotten used to living alone in her villa for so many years, and she was not entirely comfortable with sharing her place, especially not with a man whom she just met! In her opinion, her father's thought process was simply incompr
Severin did not expect Chelsea to be so confident of her beauty, so he looked her up and down.Chelsea started to panic when she saw him checking her out. She took two steps back fearfully. "Why… why are you looking at me like that?"Severin smiled. "I was just trying to figure out why you're so confident about your own looks when you're not even half as beautiful as my two women.""Why you!" Chelsea nearly passed out from anger. She had always been very confident about her looks since many rich guys tried to woo her before. 'He's probably negging me to get my attention.'She smiled suddenly. "As if I'll ever believe you. In any case, you better not get any funny ideas about coming into my room tonight. If you do, I'll make sure to off myself rather so that you won't be able to have your way with me.""Oh, don't you worry. I have no interest in you whatsoever," said Severin before going upstairs.Chelsea nearly passed out from anger again. "D*mmit!"She followed him up while me
"Ah—! There's a cockroach inside the bathroom!"At that moment, to Severin's surprise, Chelsea was also running out of the bathroom in fright. That would not have been a problem if she was not naked."Ah—! What… what are you doing in…"Chelsea was dumbfounded to see Severin standing there in her room but then she suddenly remembered he was staying in the room next to hers. She immediately looked down at herself and a blush quickly crept across her face.The next second she ran over to the bed and pulled off the bed sheet to cover herself. "What… what are you looking at? You pervert! How… how the h*ll did you get in?"Severin was speechless for a brief moment. He then smiled awkwardly as he tried to explain, "I thought some bad guys were hiding in your room when I heard you scream so I rushed in to save you."Chelsea's entire face turned bright red."Did… did you see anything just now?" she asked softly."Umm… a little but don't worry. The light is so dark in here that I didn't s
It took no time at all for Severin to get rid of the cockroach. He then came out of the bathroom and said, "Miss Chelsea, I've already got rid of the cockroach. You can shower at peace now."Chelsea rolled her eyes at him. "Well, hurry up and get out of the room!"After Severin exited the room, Chelsea quickly jogged over to lock the door. She sighed with relief before throwing the bed sheet she had wrapped around her to the bed."Ugh! This is so annoying. No man has ever seen me naked before. He should feel honored to be the first one." After that, she touched her chest. "D*mmit! They're not really that small, right? I can't help but wonder how big his wife's boobs really are."After Severin went back to his room, he could not stop thinking about what he saw just now. He started to get restless but then shook his head to clear it before climbing into bed to take a nap.An hour later, he got up and took out his cauldron to refine some alchemical pills. Three hours later, he had in
The bodyguards noticed Severin and Chelsea as soon as the two of them stepped out of the mansion. One of the captains walked up to them with several of his underlings.The captain glanced at Severin before asking, "Miss Chelsea, are you going out? Let us go with you to ensure your safety."Chelsea waved her hand. "That won't be necessary. I'll be safe with Severin."The captain held a secret crush toward Chelsea and was usually the one who accompanied her everywhere. He was already a little peeved of Severin's existence and he became more so when Chelsea chose Severin over him.His face darkened and he looked suspiciously at Severin. "I'm not sure this punk can really protect you, Miss Chelsea. Look at how skinny and pale he is. I won't be surprised if you have to end up protecting him!"Severin glanced at the captain. "Don't worry. Mister Richard has agreed to let me act as a bodyguard to Miss Chelsea for these few days. In other words, I've been thoroughly vetted by him."The c
"Kyron!" cried out Kyron's underlings.They were shocked by just how strong the invisible air pressure was too.However, Severin was able to control the air pressure to be concentrated on only Kyron so his underlings remained unaffected. Even so, they could feel the immense energy Severin was emitting and they knew they were no match for him."I… I surrender!" shouted Kyron. He knew Severin was the real thing.Severin smiled, and with a thought, the air pressure dissipated.Kyron sat down on the ground with a thud as relief washed over him."Let's go, Miss Chelsea," said Severin with a smile."Okay!" Chelsea glanced at Kyron before following Severin out of the compound.Kyron watched dazedly at the two disappearing figures. After a while, he finally stood up. "Just what is his level? That pressure just now… It was horrifyingly strong!""No wonder Mister Richard asked him to protect Miss Chelsea. She'll definitely be safe with such a strong guy beside her!" said one of Kyron's un
