Chapter 579: You Should Thank Master Behn Quickly

"I… can I refuse?" Behn asked, his face pale and his body trembling. He had already exhausted a great deal of effort on the sword, and the thought of strengthening two more left him feeling drained.
"You can," Yaeger replied, smiling sweetly, though the sound of her knuckles popping as she clenched her fists told a different story. Behn’s face grew even paler, his pupils shaking as if he could hear her unspoken threat: "Refuse, and you'll regret it."
‘How did I end up with someone like her? I must be paying for the misdeeds of all my past lives!' After silently cursing his fate, Behn straightened up and forced a solemn expression as he looked at Yaeger, then at Yunuen and Little Fairy. "It’s always a pleasure to strengthen your weapons, ladies!"
"That’s too kind. Master Behn, you’re already exhausted," Yunuen said politely.
"Exactly, why don’t you sit down, have some tea and a bun?" Little Fairy added indifferently. Though their words were considerate, the eager glint in their eyes betrayed their true intentions. They were just being polite!
‘Just as expected from the friends of the Black-hearted Princess. They’re just as insincere!' To Behn, Yunuen and Little Fairy were no different from Yaeger—cunning and calculating. They were probably plotting against him already! The thought sent a shiver down his spine, making him tremble uncontrollably.
"No, no, I’m in perfect condition. I could strengthen ten more weapons! Ahahahaha!" Behn laughed awkwardly, trying to sound confident.
"Did you hear that? Master Behn said he could handle ten more," Yaeger chimed in. Behn’s face turned a sickly shade of green at her words.
