Frowning, she retracted her hand and looked back. She noticed Xiu Ying outside, standing mid-air.

This was the second time she had seen Xiu Ying paying such attention to her, as if she hated her. She didn\'t even understand why that was the case.

She couldn\'t think of anything she might have done to upset Xiu Ying. She barely had any interaction with Xiu Ying in the past, let alone doing something to offend her.

"Were you following me?" Zhang Wei asked, as it wasn\'t normal to come across the Great Elder twice in such a short time. It felt more as if she had followed him here.

"You are the one who doesn\'t belong here," Xiu Ying softly landed on the wooden floor, walking past Zhang Wei.

Her steps were silent, making no noise as if her feet weren\'t even touching the floor properly.

As she moved, her shoulder collided with Zhang Wei\'s, pushing her aside with an unexpected force. There was no attempt to restrain her strength.

Zhang Wei\'s expression darkened as she regained her balance, rubbing her aching shoulder. She cast a glare at Xiu Ying, who continued her approach towards Eren, stopping just inches from him.

Eren observed Xiu Ying closely. Her eyes had an emptiness to them, a hollow look that was unsettling. It was as if she wasn\'t entirely present at the moment.

"Are you alright?" Eren asked, a hint of concern in his voice. There was something different about her that he couldn\'t quite place. It was a feeling he didn\'t fully understand.

In her eyes, he detected a strange obsession, one he hadn\'t noticed before, at least not to this extent.

"I am fine. What could happen to me?" Xiu Ying replied with a smile that didn\'t reach her eyes. "But what were you two doing here, alone?"

The moon had already begun its ascent into the sky, casting a cold glow over the surroundings. It was late, and the two of them were alone in this place.

"And where is the Beast Master I brought?" she asked, her gaze sweeping the area and noting his absence. This meant Eren had been completely alone with that witch.

[You have received new options]

Eren was about to explain that they were discussing their next mission when suddenly, a screen popped up in front of him, interrupting his thoughts.

....

A few hours ago~

Eren heard the story related to Xiu Ying\'s childhood and the reason she hated the Spirits. He felt that her hate was justified.

Having received the answers, he turned around to return through the portal. But just as he was about to return, he heard Estelina\'s one last sentence.

It was less of a sentence and more of a warning though.

"Be careful around Xiu Ying."

He wanted to ask what she meant but he had already stepped inside the portal, falling on Zhang Wei.

....

Eren didn\'t understand why, but at this moment, he remembered the words of Estelina. What did she mean by that? What did she know that she hadn\'t told him?

Eren didn\'t have time to think about it as he focused on the four options in front of him.

[Option One: "I was discussing a mission with her that the Sect Master gave us. There was nothing else going on."

Reward: Luck -1]

[Option Two: "What does it have to do with you? I am not your servant to tell you everything!"

Reward: Level +2]

[Option Three: "I was just spending some quality time with her, it\'s not often I get to talk to such a pretty woman."

Reward: Escape Talisman, Zhang Wei\'s favorability +5]

[Option Four: "I missed you so much. What took you so long?"

Reward: Life Healing Potion, Zhang Wei\'s Favorability -1]

"Huh?"

Eren was taken aback by the options. The first option made the most sense, but could it even be called a reward?

The reward for the first option was having his luck reduced by one? Why? He already had such bad luck, could he afford to have it even lowered?

He really didn\'t understand why this was the first option. It was as if the System was explicitly implying that the first option was the worst for him.

Why would that be the case? Why would telling her about his mission with Zhang Wei be the worst?

He noticed that all the options were just as bad. The first option came with the worst reward. The second and third options were the shortcut of offending Xiu Ying.

As for the last option, it reduced the favorability with Zhang Wei. No matter what he selected, he was at a loss.

\'Heck, so be it.\'

He selected an option out of the four bad options. He could always raise his favorability with Zhang Wei, but he couldn\'t offend Xiu Ying who had helped him so much.

"Where were you? I missed you so much. Why are you only returning now?" Eren placed his hands on Xiu Ying\'s waist, looking deep into her eyes.

Xiu Ying\'s blank expression softened as embarrassment spread across her face, realizing that others were watching them.

However, she also felt a sense of pride. Eren had no hesitation in showing his affection towards her, even in front of Zhang Wei. Her heart felt a little more at ease.

"I will be taking my leave," Zhang Wei said, turning around and silently leaving without saying anything else.

She hadn\'t expected Eren and Xiu Ying to be this close.

Even though Xiu Ying appeared calm, deep down, she still harbored hostility towards Zhang Wei as she watched her leave.

Eren also observed Zhang Wei leaving, realizing that things had become a little complicated with her for some reason.

Now Zhang Wei knew the nature of his relationship with Xiu Ying. However, he had plenty of opportunities to improve their familiarity during the mission.

For now, he focused on Xiu Ying, pulling her into his embrace.
