Chapter 501: The Sisters are here (1/2)

Silvaria World Institute, villa area…

The students all wanted to know which villa housed 3 top 10 rankers who fought like true champions in the Grand Tournament.

More importantly, they wanted these newcomers to join their factions. Last time they checked, these newcomers aren’t officially in any faction.

Even the lesser-known factions are vying for these newcomers. If luck would have it and the newcomers joined, they would rise up and be on par with the 12 great factions, even surpassing them. Plus, they only needed to attract the attention of one of the newcomers.

Wu Yan’s mansion has been bombarded by all of these kiss-asses. His doormat is also all worn out from the number of guests they needed to entertain.

A lot of them came here and flew by the seat of their pants. It’s very annoying for Hinagiku, Mikoto, and the others who had to talk to them.

10 guests a day would be their limits. They are very close to freaking out at the number of people coming here to beg them to join their factions.

5 minutes a session seemed like an eternity when you don’t even want to talk.

In the end, Hinagiku and the others just bolted the doors shut. They used an excuse that Wu Yan who is the master of this villa needed some time to heal up and need to do so in silence. They finally got the peace they wanted, but, at a cost, they can’t go out as often as before.

Hinagiku and Mikoto drank the red tea Ikaros deftly prepared. They exchanged looks and they sighed.

“This feels like a hell of some sort…”

Mikoto bitterly laughed. Mikoto didn’t like this feeling of being confined inside the house, there are only so many topics she can share with the other girls before she gets bored.

“I think it should end soon…”

Hinagiku said in an uncertain manner. She put down the teacup on a nearby table and she continued.

“Those people are just trying their luck, they wanted to see if they can entice us into joining their factions. They should get the hint soon that we are not interested at all.”

“This ‘Soon’ needs to come faster!”

Mikoto yelled.

“Even if you say that, I am not sure if I can speed it up for you.”

Mikoto is on the verge of a mental meltdown but Hinagiku can only helplessly watch Mikoto pulling her hair out. Hinagiku is more patient than Mikoto, however, unless there is something special about a place, she’s going to lose interest pretty quickly as well.

Hinagiku’s words made Mikoto admire her with a sigh.

“I envy you, those people only extended light greetings with you. But, the same people are practically begging for me to join them.”

Hinagiku laughed.

“You only have yourself to blame for that, who told you to make a bet with princess Sylph? You shouldn’t have promised to join her faction if you lost, which you did. Luckily for you, the person herself is too busy training after her defeat with Astrea to make you fulfill your side of the bargain. Did you really think the other executive members from her faction is going to conveniently forget about this deal though?”

“I didn’t lose!”

Mikoto shrieked.

“I just got a bit careless. Oh, that’s right, when she comes back, I will duel her again and reclaim my victory!”

“I won’t lose next time!”

Mikoto clenched her fists. She’s so confident of herself.

“Then, I won’t have to join her stupid faction.”

“You and your…”

Hinagiku shook her head. She prayed for Sylph’s peace after attracting the attention of her friend.
