Chapter 438: Unexpected Participants
He had already decided that he would properly apologize to Aqua, her mom, and Margarete later.
But for now, he had a competition to edge his way through!
Azmond was planning to edge from the beginning of the competition to the end of the competition!
This was what any edge lord worth half his stuff should be willing to do!
However, he was soon pulled out of his edging thoughts with the words of a very yellow beauty..
"Hey, Azmond? You never told me why we're participating in this competition," Lemon said with a curious gleam in her eyes.
She had come to learn quite a lot about Azmond these last few days, and although she wasn't in 'love' with him, she still thought of herself as 'relatively close'.
Which was why, in terms of boldness, she had already gotten ahead of hundreds of girls in Azmond's party!
In fact, she was even beginning to encroach upon the status that the 'Main Wives' had with him.
Although that was still only a mere conjecture, as none of them had any proof of this happening,.
But for some reason, they all had the feeling that she was close to taking the 'next step'!
After all, she spent nearly all day, every day, with Azmond's Essence Soul clone!
It was like she had completely forgotten about the family that she had in her Duke household
In reality, that was far from the truth, as Lemon was still aiming to head back to her family.
However, before she did, she felt like a little vacation with this mysteriously charming man wasn't such a bad idea
Although, only a little break! Very brief!
For sure
"..."
Azmond turned his gaze away from the receptionist as he observed all the lecherous stares that his girls were getting.
|Are you planning to?| Boundless questioned with a suspicious tone while leaning her breasts over his head.
Azmond was sucked into the docile eyes of Boundless before he sighed and replied, "No, not now."
|Really!? That doesn't seem like you! Usually, you would be like, 'I'll kill anyone who even dares glance at my girls!'| Boundless exclaimed with a slight giggle escaping her mouth.
"...Well, I've changed my ways" Azmond replied, his eye glancing in the opposite direction of Boundless.
|Hehe~ You can't fool me~ Don't forget that I know how your brain functions, and it's because of that that I know you plan to get them all during your fights-|
"Nope. I don't know what you're talking about," Azmond responded with a twitching smile.
'How did she know?' He thought.
|Hehe~! You dumb baka~! I'm Boundless! There is no one more awesome than me~!
And with that awesomeness comes the ability to understand what my baka is thinking at all times~!|
Boundless's words were followed by her squeezing her body even closer to Azmond as she rubbed her face up against him with an obsessive glint in her eyes.
'Pretty sure that's just your yandere talking' Azmond thought with a sigh before he started walking away from the reception table.
He and the rest of the girls were headed in the direction of the 'Reserved Rooms' that were left out for every participating member of the Centennial Clash.
There were thousands of such 'Reserved Rooms', and Azmond was allotted one hundred fifty rooms to split up among all those in his 'Guild'.
He and the rest of the girls were walking to their designated rooms under the onlookers' gazes before two familiar yet unfamiliar figures appeared in the corner of Azmond's eyes.
'Azure and Sapphire' He thought with a crinkled forehead.
Azmond could sense the incoming trouble from miles away
And just as he predicted, Azure and Sapphire came running in his direction as soon as they caught sight of him.
"Azmond!" They both shouted with fervent looks on their faces.
It was clear that his disguise did absolutely nothing to prevent his identity from being revealed to these two maid sisters
'I should really use my Godfiend technique to better conceal myself before the competition begins' Azmond thought, an exasperated sigh escaping his mouth.
Nonetheless, he had already been discovered by the two beautiful maids, so he walked away from the scrutinizing glares of his group and made his way over to the two of them.
*Umph*
He grabbed them both in his arms before spinning them around a little.
After he did a single circle with them in his arms, he put them down and playfully looked into their dazzling light blue eyes.
"Were you girls good while I wasn't there~?" Azmond asked with a warm smile playing on his lips.
"..." "..."
Azure and Sapphire had a plethora of conflicting emotions go through their minds in that instant.
They wanted to respond positively and then kiss him, but they have been brooding over their relationship with Azmond for a long while now
And even after all this time to think, they didn't know how to categorize what it was they had with him.
Were they lovers? Were they friends with benefits? Did they just have a quick fling?
A multitude of questions entered their minds in that moment, as they struggled to understand what exactly it was they had had with Azmond.
Azmond noticed the tumultuous thoughts of the maids right away as he raised an eyebrow before asking, "Why are you two thinking so deeply about something so ridiculous?"
"???" Azure and Sapphire gazed up at him with perplexed expressions, and that was when they noticed that his eye color had changed.
They weren't sure when that color change had happened, but it was quickly growing on them
But that was besides the point! Right now, all they wanted to focus on was what Azmond meant when he said what he did!
*Squish Squish*
The curvaceous maids pressed their bodies up against Azmond's firm chest before they stared at him with pleading eyes, clearly indicating that they wanted him to elaborate on what he said!
Azmond kindly smiled at this adorable sight, completely ignoring the aggrieved girls standing behind him.
That was especially the case for the newest member of the 'Azmond fan/harem group', namely, Lemon.
It was unknown what was going through her head when she saw the masked man play around with other women in front of her.
However, those furrowed brows and twitching facial expressions clearly indicated something
...
