Since they were out to relax, they naturally had to go to a livelier place.

Lei Yuan had wanted to take a stroll on the streets and perhaps buy some potions. However, after walking around for a while, he saw that there was nothing else of note other than eating, drinking, and having fun.

Especially when there was a woman beside him.

Compared to Lei Yuan, who was strolling around listlessly, Lotti was much more excited. She was a woman, after all. She could not help but sample all sorts of delicacies and try on different types of jewelry.

However, she only spent money to buy food and did not buy any of the jewelry she tried out. She even gave Lei Yuan his own share of the food.

“Just consider it a gift in celebration of your cultivation progress. Continue to work hard from now on.”

It was an acceptable reason for Lei Yuan.

He finished the food and looked for an excuse to go back.

However, there was suddenly an influx of people coming out onto the street, and their surroundings became very chaotic. Many people started pushing and shoving around them, and as a result, the two of them were separated by the swarm of people.

“Lei Yuan!”

Seeing that she was getting further and further away from the man, Lotti began to panic. She wanted to go against the flow of people, but she was dragged away by the crowd.

Lei Yuan was being pushed away as well. However, he was not in a hurry to regroup with Lotti. It was a good opportunity to get rid of her.

When the crowd dispersed, Lei Yuan could no longer see Lotti.He thought that he had finally gotten rid of the woman and decided that it was time to leave.

However, Lei Yuan stopped suddenly as he considered the possibility that Lotti might still be looking for him.

‘What if she can’t find me and keeps looking for me? What should I do?’

“Host, you should go home. She’s a mage, so she’ll be fine. Don’t waste time over one woman.”

Beautiful women were often a source of trouble, and this woman might be one of them.

‘Who knows, she might hinder my path of advancement in the future.’

Lei Yuan had initially considered the possibility, but he began to feel that it would be unkind to just leave Lotti behind, especially since she had been so kind to him and had even taught him some spells.

The system was shocked when Lei Yuan remained still. It quickly said, “Host, why aren’t you leaving?”

“…I’ll go look for her.”

There were not as many people around now, but Lotti was still nowhere in sight. This area was not large, and he should be able to find her quickly.

‘Where could Lotti have run off to? What if something happened to her?’

Lei Yuan thought of how unusual it was that the place suddenly became so crowded, as if the people were deliberately trying to separate them.

With that in mind, Lei Yuan made his decision. It was better to go look for her. Things would be fine as long as she was safe.

After all, she was an ambassador from an allied country. If something happened to her in their country, they would be in big trouble.

Hearing Lei Yuan, the system became annoyed for a while, but it ultimately did not say anything.All it could do was obey its host’s requests.

“I’ll track her location. Don’t waste your time looking for her aimlessly.”

The sooner he found her, the sooner he would send her home. That way, the host could have a good rest and shop in peace.

However, Lei Yuan did not have to search for long before a light suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. It was so bright that he could not even keep his eyes open.

By the time he reacted, his surroundings had changed drastically. He was no longer on the street, but in a small forest instead.

What brought him here?

“Host, you have to be cautious. This forest isn’t normal,” the system suddenly reminded him. “There are powerful people nearby.”

He could tell that the situation was very abnormal; it was obvious that he had been teleported.

But who did it?

Lei Yuan was vigilant as he looked left and right. He planned to escape as soon as possible.

Although he was teleported, he saw that he was not too far from the palace. He still knew the way and was perfectly capable of going back.

However, he had only taken a few steps forward when a woman suddenly appeared in front of him. Lei Yuan had never seen this woman before.

She was very good-looking. Her red hair gave her a flirtatious air, and dragon horns grew from the sides of her forehead, which gave her a unique charm.

“You’re really good-looking.” The woman immediately walked forward and raised her hand to touch his forehead. “It’s a pity that you’re not as beautiful as I am, but you’re still not bad. Now, return with me.”

‘What? Why does this lady from the Dragon Tribe want to bring me back?’

“I’m not going back with you.” Lei Yuan was baffled. “I have something else I need to do, so I’ll be leaving first.”

He did not know how this woman had appeared in front of him. Did she teleport? He had to dig up some information on her after he returned to the palace.

However, the woman had no intention of letting him go.

She blocked his way and threw a sword at his feet. “You’ll need to duel me if you want to leave.”

Lei Yuan looked at her questioningly.

“If you win, I’ll let you go, but if you lose, you’ll have to come back with me.”

Lei Yuan was speechless. She declared this so confidently that it was as if she believed that her actions were perfectly reasonable.

Lei Yuan did not answer, nor did he take the sword. He did not want to fight with her at all.

‘Fighting is so tiring. Can’t we have a meaningful conversation instead?’

“Come and fight!”Seeing that he was not responding, the woman raised her sword and was about to rush forward.

“Wait!”

‘Does she really want to fight?’

Lei Yuan picked up the sword, but he had no intention of fighting back. He only wanted to defend himself. At the same time, he said, “Wait, don’t you think you’re being ridiculous? You suddenly appeared out of nowhere and demanded that I follow you. I don’t even know who you are.”

It was unreasonable to expect someone to leave with a stranger. Lei Yuan thought that if he explained it this way, she would at least reveal some information about herself.

However, the woman still had no intention of introducing herself.

What she wanted to do was obvious. She snorted coldly, “There’s nothing much to it. I just like you, so I want you to come with me. Of course, I don’t expect you to come with me willingly, so let’s have a competition to see who gets their way.”

“But even if it’s a competition, it has to be on the condition that both parties are willing! You’re forcing me to fight!”

Lei Yuan desperately wanted to refuse. He was not a fool. If this woman could teleport him here without anyone noticing, it was proof enough that her strength was far above his.

He would only accept a fight like this if he was out of his mind!

“If I want a match, then you have no right to refuse.”Her attitude was stubborn and she attacked right after saying this.

“Hey! At least tell me what your motive is! I’m just an ordinary man. There’s nothing attractive about me, right? Why would you want me to go with you?!”

But the woman ignored him and continued to attack. Helpless, Lei Yuan could only accept the challenge.

He could tell just how powerful she was from her first move.If the fight continued, he would definitely lose.

“Come on, don’t show me mercy just because I’m a woman. Fight me with all your strength. I don’t need a man to take it easy on me.”

Lei Yuan was speechless. He was not taking it easy. What made her think that he was strong?
