600 Chapter 600: To his face
"See? Her reaction was very suspicious. They are definitely scheming sothing," Jenia said, not missing the chance to fill Estelia's ears with her conspiracy theories.
Estelia couldn't deny it. That girl's reaction had definitely been strange. Just what had Eren told her? The question kept tugging at her curiosity.
In the end, she couldn't control herself and asked him, "What did you tell her?"
"I just told her that the perverted Seventh Primordial is coming. After that, she suddenly left for so reason." Eren made up a story. He didn't want to tell her that he had simply teased the girl, which probably made her so angry that she had to leave.
"Why did you have to whisper it then? You're clearly lying!" Jenia exclaid, pointing a finger at Eren.
"Didn't you see the reaction of that manager when I said it out loud? He even pretended not to hear it." Eren lazily shrugged. "Should I have said it before the servants as well?"
It was impossible to trap him in the web of his lies, as he had already thought of everything.
"Oh? Now you're scared of that? Do you really want to believe that?" Jenia crossed her arms, clearly not buying Eren's excuse.
"Oh? Are you not afraid to say it?" Eren asked, revealing an amused smile as he saw a figure approaching from the distance.
The person had no aura, or even any presence. But he was being escorted by the Manager himself. Eren didn't even have to use his identification skill to guess the identity of the person.
"Of course I'm not scared." Jenia raised an eyebrow. "I'm not a coward like you."
"Oh? Then why don't you prove it? Say it," Eren insisted, watching the Seventh Primordial getting closer. Within seconds, he was going to be within range to hear their conversation even if he didn't use any heightened senses.
"Hmph." Jenia couldn't take Eren's smug face. Did he really think that she was a coward like him? She had to prove him wrong. She could do everything that he could do, and more.
She took a deep breath, and exclaid, "The Seventh Primordial is a pervert!"
Since she was so angry, she didn't even control her voice. But just Eren, but even the servants in the hallway heard her words. Even worse was that the person being ntioned, heard her.
The Seventh Primordial was in a good mood as he ca for the auction, especially since an item that he really wanted was going to be auctioned today. It was the reason he ca here personally.
He was even being escorted by the manager, being shown the respect that he deserved. But suddenly, he heard soone shout, "The Seventh Primordial is a pervert!"
The words thundered in his ears like drums, making his body temporarily freeze in shock. For a second, he even wondered if he was hearing things. But it was clear that soone had actually said such an absurd thing out loud.
Even the Manager's face had gone pale when he heard these words. The Seven Primordials were the seven strongest existences in Hell. Even if one of them did sothing bad, no one had the courage to say it out loud as it ant certain death.
anwhile, there was so fool who dared to say sothing like this in front of the Second Primordial?
The Manager was already starting to worry about his auction house. It was fine if the person who said it was going to be killed, but what if this auction house was destroyed in the rage of a primordial?
"L-lord?" He stuttered, as he looked at the Seventh Primordial Rezekiel.
He could see that Rezekiel's lips were twitching in frustration. He was clearly feeling insulted, as he looked at the back of the person who had spoken.
Jenia had no awareness about the situation she had ended up in. Instead, she looked proud as if she had achieved sothing incredible.
She opened her lips, about to tell Eren that she had done what he couldn't. But before she could speak, she heard a man's voice coming from behind her.
"Why don't you tell more about it?"
"Hmm?" She slowly turned around, frowning to see who was talking to her. But the mont she saw that person, her face almost went blank. How was it possible?
She knew that the Seventh Primordial was arriving at the Auction House, but he was right behind her? Did it an he heard everything that she said about him?
"Lord Rezekiel," she mumbled, not understanding what to do in a situation like this. Even if she also ca from a significant family, it couldn't compare to a Primordial.
"Why are you giving a pervert such respect? I don't think I deserve it," The Seventh Primordial said with his hands behind his back.
"I-i didn't an it like that." Jenia tried to clarify, but it was already useless to co up with an explanation.
She had said those words with such confidence and pride, that they truly ca across as her true feelings. It wasn't as if there was any lie in those words in the first place.
"Young lady, your tongue is very sharp. But instead of using this tongue to utter such words, you should make good use of that tongue in other ways." The Seventh Primordial was frustrated, but he also caught sight of the First Primordial's daughter, which made him restrain himself.
Even though Estelia was so seductive that he simply wanted to take her straight to his bed, he couldn't do that. Her father was going to bury him alive if he even revealed any intentions like these.
Moreover, she was also technically his niece, as his sister was Estelia's stepmother. In front of Estelia, he had to control himself, even if he was furious at Jenia.
He placed a hand on Jenia's shoulders, taking a good feel of her skin before walking past her. "Be careful next ti. Not everyone is kind-hearted like ."
