Chapter 207 A Sudden Surprise!!!
"What do you mean by Livie was going to die?"
"Are you stupid? The Lunaris family from Star State has already tracked your location. All they need to do is send someone here and catch you."
She took a jab at me, but what she said was true. The Lunaris family has the power to foresee and predict. What annoying magic to have.
"Join me, and I will cancel their magic, making it impossible for them to track you."
"You're a Lunaris. Why are you stopping them?"
"That's simple. We're not from the same side."
What does that mean? Did she have a falling out with her family? I guess it doesn't matter. What I needed was protection from them.
"Fine, we'll join. As long as you don't make us do something harmful, we will do as you say."
"Good. My magic had stopped their tracking, but the three of us should leave. They should be here any minute.
That was pretty soon. Any negativity that I had against Lua was now gratefulness. She saved our hide if what she said was true.
Leaving the restroom, the three of us got the fuck out immediately. We don't have any time to waste.
Seeing that many people were floating in the air near the mountain ceiling, they were searching for something.
Were they our pursuers? Going to a building that Lua knew, we quickly went there. Entering the building, it seems like your everyday place.
"Welcome back, master."
Master? I then looked at Lua, who didn't seem to be bothered by it. So this place was a base for their organization.
To think that we weren't far off from a place like this. Before we continued moving, a voice could be heard.
"Charlie Solaris! We know you're here! Show yourself! If not, we will kill everyone around!"
A voice loud enough for everyone to hear had just tried to threaten me. Panic could be heard outside, but this threat didn't affect me.
I could care less if anyone here dies. As long as Livie and I survive, they can do whatever they want.
Livie looked worried for a second. Even if it guilts her, I won't let her go.
"What will you do, Charlie?"
Lua looked at me and asked. She was studying every action that I would take. It looks like she can't see everything about the future.
"We're leaving if they do attack everyone. They would go to war with this country. I doubt they're stupid enough to do that."
They wouldn't risk the chance of engaging in a war with a country that was precious in terms of resources. If they fought Everest, they would lose all material from this place.
Lua, who saw my judgment, couldn't help but nod. The employee had opened a secret path for us to go underground.
With the chances of the pursers attacking, the employee followed. No one here minded, so we continued onward.
Ending on a blocked road, there seems to be a magical residual on the floor. Before we left, there seemed to be a battle above ground.
"Let's hurry. The residents of Everest are going to attack back."
With all of us standing on the floor, we teleported away to a different location. The organization Ascension must be rich to have its teleporter.
"Do I call you boss now?"
I don't know how to talk to "Lua." Her total change in attitude threw me off.
"Call me Lua. You're going to my husband anyways."
"..."
"No, he is going to marry me!"
Livie objected strongly when Lua said that. The employee who was still beside us was staring at them and me. Watching it like this was a drama show.
Livie grabbed onto my arm and clung to them.
"I'm not going to take him away. You could be the first wife, while I will be the second."
I never expected anyone to say something like this. No sane woman likes to be the second fiddle.
Hearing what Lua had said, Livie didn't look convinced. Even though she was grateful to Lua for helping us, she was still suspicious.
"What now? We're here, so what do we do?"
Changing the topic, I asked what we were supposed to do in this place. We teleported into a base where no one was. Only the four of us were here.
"Currently, you have nothing to do. I need you to get stronger. You have an important role later on."
Even though we joined the organization, we still don't know what to do.
"Livie, let's just train."
[Back to the present]
Looking back, that was how we met. Right now, I was in front of Lua. She was sitting down, expecting me to come.
"I reached the fourth rank. What do you want me to do?"
"Don't be so impatient."
"From today, you're going to be a manager for an idol group."
"..."
I looked at her to see if she was serious. It was random for her to tell me to do this.
"Yes, I'm serious about this."
From my expression alone, she could see what I was thinking. I didn't know what to say to this nonsense.
"You may think this is stupid, but they're a key individual needed for our group."
"And why do I have to be the manager?"
"The future said you would bring in good results."
"..."
Stupid Lunaris magic. I can't even tell if she was bullshitting or if what she said was true. With her protecting us, it is not like I could say no.
"So, who will I be managing?"
Seeing that I accepted, she smiled.
"You'll be managing the group called Sweet Dreams."
Oh them? How long has it been since I last saw them? Four months ago? Livie and I saw them about Eight months ago. And she loved their music.
"So how will I be managing them? I had never done anything like this."
"You'll see it soon enough."
I couldn't help but sigh. She keeps too many secrets, and it is annoying.
