Chapter 3033
Lloyd turned around and looked at Sherri, who had completely ignored him. He looked embarrassed.He had always been prideful. Although he came from a good background, he had never bullied others because of his status. Moreover, due to his love for poetry, he had some understanding of the classical culture of Obscura City. He even considered himself a poet!People with such high self-regard often cared a lot about their reputation. Therefore, when they were ignored by others, their inner sense of shame was often stronger than that of others.But Sherri just treated him as her ordinary friend. The two families had some cooperative relations, and their relationship was usually quite good. But Sherri had no intention of taking it further. Naturally, she ignored Lloyd's feelings, which escalated the situation.Sherri approached Adrian and said excitedly, "Mr. Adrian, I thought you wouldn't come!"Adrian shook his head. Upon listening to her soft voice, combined with Sherri's cute face,

Unfortunately, there weren't many people in this world who understood Adrian's helplessness. Most of them just thought that Adrian was a stubborn man who couldn't appreciate romance!Hilary, who had been following Sherri all along, had a faint smile. Tonight, she had gathered her friends and companions just to witness the scene that was unfolding before her eyes. Seeing what was happening, she felt exceedingly satisfied!She secretly observed the others while keeping an eye on Adrian. She hoped that Adrian would say something more decisive to thoroughly upset Sherri. This way, Sherri would definitely be embarrassed at her birthday banquet. She would have no chance to compete with her in the futureThe culture of Obscura City was somewhat different from that of Silverboa City. They were deeply influenced by the previous dynasties of Silverboa City, although they had also been heavily influenced by the Flambeau Kingdom in recent years.But overall, the core of Obscura City's culture
Chapter 3035
Lloyd was a self-proclaimed poet and artistic youth, and he fancied Sherri. He grimaced when Sherri rebuked him and even started trembling."I didn't mean that—" Lloyd tried to explain, but Sherri was already angry because of what he said to Adrian. She didn't give Lloyd a chance to explain at all."Mr. Adrian is my invited guest. If I have any dissatisfaction, I'll deal with it myself. It's none of your business!" Sherri said coldly, showing no mercy.Lloyd felt confused by the situation unfolding before him. He hadn't anticipated Sherri, who had always been kind to him, speaking such words because of a man she had only known for a few days. A sense of hopelessness washed over him, his face paling.Hilary saw Lloyd's reaction to Sherri's words and muttered, "What a waste!" Sherri's pursuit of Adrian had not yet been fully revealed, which didn't fit Hilary's plan. Thus, she suddenly spoke up, "Sherri! Don't be too impulsive. There are so many people watching tonight. You shouldn'

"It's okay, let him talk. Men always have a strong desire to show off!" Even though they had lowered their voices, Adrian still clearly heard their conversation. He squinted. When he first saw Hilary, he felt that something was off. Because her attitude didn't seem like that of an ordinary best friend. After all, for her, he was a completely unfamiliar person.Yet she was still finding various ways to encourage Sherri to approach him. If she were really Sherri's best friend, why would she do such a thing? Could it be that her intention was to make him reject Sherri, thus making Sherri sad or humiliating her?He was very familiar with the culture of Obscura City. If he didn't understand his enemies, how could he defeat them?Thinking of this, he realized that tonight's events might develop into something more complicated. He then smiled coldly.Following Hilary's suggestion, Sherri sat next to Adrian. She maintained an elegant posture and softly asked, "Mr. Adrian, your sword seem

Sherri seemed completely unaware of Hilary's thoughts. After hearing Adrian's words, her face instantly turned red.This time her blush was not due to embarrassment as before. Previously, facing Adrian's cold attitude, Sherri had indeed felt very embarrassed. But this time, she was completely taken aback by Adrian's affectionate words.She shyly lowered her head. If the girls from the academy saw Sherri like this, they would surely be very surprised. After all, they considered her their senior. But tonight, because of Adrian's words, she had turned into such a demure maiden! It was truly astonishing.Sherri was too shy to speak because of Adrian.As for Hilary, she also knew that it was not the right time for her to speak. Although she had been thinking that Adrian would reject Sherri, she knew that her plan had failed due to Adrian's attitude change. Now it was impossible to embarrass Sherri using the previous method. Thus, she could only rely on Lloyd!Lloyd had been childhood f

"I didn't expect to run into such a weirdo just as I came here to relax!" Adrian muttered in the Silverboan language.Sherri was stunned for a moment. Did he just speak in the Silverboan language? But because the situation was quite tense now, Sherri didn't dwell on it.Lloyd was relentless, pointing at Adrian and roaring, "Sherri is mine! If you want to take her away from me, then you'll have to duel with me!""You're talking nonsense!" Sherri also became angry and, without hesitation, jumped up from the sofa.After rebuking him, she realized that her behavior was exceedingly unladylike and would bring shame to her family. She blushed, covered her mouth with embarrassment, and glanced at Adrian, wondering if this would ruin her image in his eyes."What's going on here?" A man in the Obscuran warrior attire stood out with his towering stature as he approached. Notably, he bore a saber at his waist, a sight quite uncommon in the current Leafall.Ever since Quintin assumed control
Chapter 3039
Sigmund instantly drew his saber from his waist.For him, going to the battlefield would be a difficult task. After all, when it came to real combat, his legs would go weak. Otherwise, he wouldn't have surrendered.Still, dealing with a young man around 20 years old, especially one without any significant background, was not difficult for him at all!Even if the man had an influential background, so what? Standing beside him was the son of the newly appointed governor of Leafall. If something happened, it would be his responsibility.Approaching Adrian with his blade, Sigmund almost put the blade to Adrian's neck.How could Adrian let someone put a weapon to his neck? He stood up and dodged Sigmund's attack."Do you want to fight me?" Adrian asked in a chilling tone.Sigmund smiled coldly. Fight with this guy from Silverboa City? That wasn't a good idea!No matter what background he had, the people of the Obscura City wouldn't dare to lay hands on someone from Silverboa City wi
Chapter 3040
But if these two individuals were the son of the Governor of Leafall and an unidentified person from Silverboa City, it would be a headache for them."Don't mind me! It’s your daughter's birthday banquet. Let's have a duel between warriors to make the celebration more lively, shall we?" Sigmund said cruelly.He didn't intend to kill Adrian. After all, he was from Silverboa City. But swords and sabers couldn’t differentiate that. If Adrian got injured in some way and spent the rest of his life in a wheelchair, it wouldn't be his fault, right? Hence, the biggest problem now was how to get Adrian to agree to this challenge. Others thought Adrian was afraid because he hadn't spoken. Now standing in front of him was the captain of the Leafall guard, an eighth-level expert, and beside him was the governor's son. From both individual strength and background, it seemed like he was at a disadvantage. Naturally, if Adrian surrendered, no one would find it strange!But the next moment, somet
