Chapter 39: My Husband
That\'s why the Guards weren\'t needed here.
The guards only guarded the entrance of the core region as they didn\'t think that someone was going to be foolish enough to enter the Courtyard of a Great Elder.
Unfortunately for them, there was one person who broke all norms.
Eren stood at the entrance of the Courtyard which he had selected.
He tried to open the door but the gate didn\'t even budge. It was locked from inside.
He walked around the place to look for a window, but there was none there. There was only a small opening which was probably to let fresh air flow inside.
"Should I break the door? If it\'s Xiu Ying, she won\'t mind. But if it\'s someone else..."
He thought about breaking the door for a moment. But he quickly dropped the idea.
"Celeste, I think it\'s time for you to help me."
He looked at Celeste who was resting in his pocket.
Celeste raised her cute little head innocently, as if asking what she had to do.
"Are you looking at the opening?" Eren pointed at the small opening for the air.
It was too small for him. But when it came to Celeste, it was the perfect entrance.
"I want you to enter from there and open the door from inside."
Eren gave her some instructions while telling her to be extremely careful to not be seen by anyone.
As long as Celestria wasn\'t seen by anyone, no one could sense her presence. It was the same for him ever since he received Aura Control Method from the system as a reward.
With it, he couldn\'t just hide his aura but also erase his presence entirely. It was also one of the reasons why he was able to walk inside the Core Region without being detected.
According to his assumption, even the Sect Master couldn\'t sense him as long as he didn\'t make his presence known.
Celeste came out of his pocket, flying towards the small opening above.
She quickly entered through the opening.
A few minutes passed before Eren heard some movements on the other side of the door. It was the sound of the lock being opened.
"Looks like she succeeded." He tried opening the door again and this time, he was able to open it. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
He opened the door cautiously, peeking inside to make sure the coast was clear before stepping into the hallway.
"Good work, little one." He patted the head of Celeste who had been the most helpful.
Celeste smiled innocently, being happy that she was able to help.
She went back inside his pocket, peeking her head out.
"Now, shall we find Xiu Ying?" Eren closed the door behind him and went down the hallway.
He moved like a thief, trying to make as little noise as possible. He made no sound at all.
After searching around the house, he heard the sound of water falling.
\'Is she taking a shower?\'
He opened the door of the last room and entered inside, noticing a bed in the middle of the room.
This was the bedroom of the owner. It was impeccably clean and tidy, with a faint scent of fresh flowers lingering in the air.
On the left side of the room, there was the bathroom. The door of the bathroom was open and the sound of water falling was coming from inside.
It was evident that someone was taking a shower inside.
Believing it to be Great Elder Xiu Ying, Eren walked closer to the bathroom. Soon, he was only a few steps away from it.
Taking a deep breath, he stepped forward and looked inside.
\'Huh?!\'
Eren\'s face went pale and his jaw dropped as he looked at the person who was showering inside.
Inside, there was a woman. She wasn\'t wearing any clothes and her back was facing him.
Drops of water glistened on her smooth skin, creating a mesmerizing sight. But Eren didn\'t have the time to appreciate the sight before him. Because he was able to see the hair color of that woman.
It wasn\'t the hair color of Great Elder Xiu Ying. Instead, it was the hair color of the Sect Master!
Eren\'s heart stopped beating for a moment as soon as he came to the realization!
He had selected the Courtyard! This one didn\'t belong to Xiu Ying. It belonged to the Sect Master of the Great Demon Sect!
It belonged to one of the four Overlords. And now he was looking at her bare body! If he was discovered, getting chopped into a thousand pieces could only be described as a merciful fate!
....
At the same time, in the courtyard that Eren hadn\'t selected, a woman was lying on the bed.
Her entire room was covered in portraits of a man. She had drawn these portraits herself.
If one was to see her bedroom, they would have thought that she was obsessed with the man.
The man in those portraits was none other than Eren.
There were hundreds of portraits, and presently, she was drawing one more portrait of the man she loved.
She was someone who made others fall in love with her. But this time, she was in love with someone else.
She wanted to go to that man right away! She wanted to make that man belong to only her!
Unfortunately, she was punished by the Sect Master and wasn\'t allowed to leave her house.
She could easily leave as there was no seal placed on her, but she knew that there were consequences if she did that.
She could only wait until her punishment was over, before going to find her lover.
"Soon, your wife will come to you..." She said, gazing at the portrait that she was drawing. "My husband."
