Chapter 34: Robbing and Buying Blessed Stones! {1}
Althea’s gaze grew visibly colder the moment Andrea spoke, her Crimson eyes narrowing as she is quite, naive goddess.
The room, already chilly due to Althea’s presence, seemed to drop a few more degrees.
Andrea, completely unaware of the growing tension, continued to hum to herself as she played with the corner of her golden dress. She was far too innocent for her own good—or perhaps just oblivious.
Althea sighed, her breath releasing a fine mist in the cold air. She already understood there was no point in arguing with someone so clueless. Instead, her sharp gaze slid toward Reo... who was currently having very unwholesome thoughts.
Reo, Standing Beside Andrea with a thoughtful expression, wore a grin that was clearly wandering off into perverted territory—specifically imagining what kind of sessions might occur if Andrea ever decided to join in.
Smack!
The sharp sting on his cheek snapped him out of his fantasy. A red mark bloomed across his face. Reo blinked, stunned.
"The fuck? Who did that?!" he snapped, standing up with a scowl.
Althea stood across from him, her hand still slightly raised. Her expression was frigid. "Me. Got a problem with that?"
Her voice was colder than frostbite. Reo, despite himself, actually shivered. He’d faced death before—but this was on a whole other level of terrifying.
Andrea, meanwhile, tilted her head in innocent confusion. She looked from Althea to Reo, blinking slowly like a curious kitten. "Why did you slap him? Did he did something Wrong?"
