“Please!” Linda suddenly got up and knelt down, bowing her head. “If you can really heal, Ning please do it.”
“Wait, you do not need to bow to me!” Juna was slightly flustered. She did not mean to make Linda bow to her. “You do not need to do this. I offered because I want to help and I know that is what Her Holiness would want. Ning did a good thing and because of that she does not deserve to suffer.”
“Dear guests…. I do not wish to interrupt but can you please leave?” a waiter was standing there, his expression was not good. The three had caused a huge scene from the beginning and many people were complaining. He also did not know who this strange woman was or where she came from. She had appeared out of nowhere. He did not wish for to have any trouble happening in the restaurant.
“Yes, we will be leaving now.” Juna turned to the waiter and apologized: “I am sorry for the disturbance.”
“It-It’s alright.” As Juna turned, the waiter was struck by her ethereal beauty. She was a vision, surpassing any woman he had ever laid eyes on. He couldn't help but feel a pang of regret for having to ask her to leave, especially under the watchful gazes that were now piercing his back.
Juna nodded to the waiter, and just as she was about to have the two girls follow her out of the restaurant so she could teleport them to the city, a man with slick-back hair and a lazy smile on his lips walked over. “Miss. I have never seen anyone as beautiful as you. May I know your name?”
“Linda, Ning let’s go.” Juna turned and began walking away, her root disappearing in the process. She had learned how to jump roots just recently which allowed her to appear in the restaurant without causing harm to the building but she was still unable to teleport people out the same way. If she were to do that it would cause a massive hole in the floor so she wanted to head to a back ally to do it.
As for the man who had just tried to hit on her, she did not even hear a word he said since she did not look at other men except for her husband—at least in that way. She would not even acknowledge anyone who tried to hit on her at all. Luckily, she did not deal with this very often, only when newer citizens who did not know arrived. But they would quickly learn that it was taboo to hit on her after Oinktera had given them a good scolding. Normally she would do as she did just now and completely ignore the person as if they did not exist to begin with.
“Miss!” The slick-back hair young man still did not wish to give up but as he went to step forward and grab her wrist he felt a hand on his shoulder, that squeezed it so hard it caused him to scream out in pain.
“If she did not answer that means she did not wish to speak with you.” Ning’s eyes flashed with a spark of lightning. Juna was now her benefactor she did not wish for the woman who was trying to help her to deal with stupid things like being hit on when it was obvious she did not want it.
“I get it! Let go! It hurts!” The young man cried out. Ning snorted and let go.
“Next time be more polite to the girl. If she ignores you it’s a no.” Ning scolded before walking to Juna’s side.
Juna looked at her and smiled before reaching up and patting her head. “Thank you.”
“It’s nothing.” Ning blushed. She was not used to so many people treating her like this.
The group made it to the alleyway where Juna summoned a few roots to take them back to the city. At the same time, Desaray was floating over Serenity just outside the shield looking off into the distance. “Hmm? Why do I feel a stronger presence getting closer and closer to my kingdom?” Desaray had a feeling that what ever it was was not going to be friendly.
Not far off, Erebus had detected someone powerful and decided to investigate. He quickly arrived at a large area covered in frozen roots and raised an eyebrow. He slowly descended and was about to touch the roots to find out what had caused this when a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. “Hmm? You are?”
“I am the Ruler of this kingdom. Who are you and why have you come?” Desaray asked. She was vigilant since she had no idea just how strong this man was.
“I see. Was it you who made this barrier?” Erebus was very amused by this ice dragon standing in the air. But he also felt a strange aura on her that was closer to his own. Not fully but almost there.
“I am asking who you are. If you do not answer then I will consider you an enemy.”
