Chapter 359: Starlight Queen, the queen of this institute! (1/2)
Caah focused on Ikaros but Ikaros wasn’t aware. Wu Yan is the only figure reflected in her emerald green eyes.
Seeing as Ikaros has no intention of interacting with Caah, Wu Yan subconsciously release a sigh of relief, it would be very awkward for them if this continued.
To put a stop to this, Wu Yan approached him.
“Ikaros has no intention of partic.i.p.ating in this tournament, I am afraid you’re going to be very disappointed, Prince Caah.”
Caah only noticed how unsightly he is when Wu Yan talked to him. He flinched in response to Wu Yan’s statement.
“Miss Ikaros, are you really not going to partic.i.p.ate? Surely, with Miss Ikaros’ strength, obtaining a spot in the rankings is but a trivial matter?”
Caah didn’t know how strong Ikaros is but he can roughly guess that she’s no weaker than Sylph and Mikoto seeing as she could block their rampaging attacks. He didn’t have the confidence to state that he could block the aftermath of the collision between two energy bodies.
If anyone said Ikaros didn’t have the strength to rank, those who had seen the spectacle that day would fervently deny it.
Wu Yan smiled.
“Ikaros likes tranquility, she is not one who is fond of a rowdy or chaotic scene so…”
Wu Yan is implying that not only is Ikaros not joining, it would also be in Caah’s best interest not to cling onto a certain someone. Caah apparently didn’t get the message.
“Oh? That is just too bad…”
Caah said in a dejected manner, he’s not faking it at all he is really disappointed. This meant that he won’t be able to see that scene again.
Wu Yan is not sure whether to laugh or cry. Ignoring his enviable position at the moment, he’s an otaku who haven’t touch a girl’s hand just a few months ago. With his limited experience, Wu Yan didn’t know how to deal with an admirer like Caah.
Luckily for him, his lucky stars are here to help.
Fei Fei, Lulu, and their entourage appeared from the entrance to the platform. They spotted Wu Yan & co almost immediately and they quickened their pace.
“Yan!”
Lulu yelled out loud. She dashed towards Wu Yan and she robbed him of Flandre who’s peacefully minding her own business up until this moment. She rubbed her face all over.
Flandre is familiar with this toll she has to pay to visit Little Lirin over at Fatal Forest’s headquarter. She has to go through this experience at least once or twice while over there. Flandre-chan understands that Lulu didn’t mean any harm. All she could do was mutter a few “Uguu” and accept Lulu’s soft torture.
Caah felt awkward, being the second strongest student in Silvaria World Inst.i.tute, and the crown prince of Feia empire, he had never experienced being ignored like this.
Obviously, being ignored by Ikaros didn’t count in his books.
Just because Lulu didn’t notice didn’t mean that Fei Fei wasn’t paying attention. She gave Caah a knight’s greeting instead of a n.o.ble’s greeting. This implied that Fei Fei didn’t treat him as a person of an entirely different caste.
“Greetings, Prince Caah!”
Caah approved of Fei Fei’s more polite mannerisms. He returned a bow.
“A good day to you too, Miss Fei Fei!”
Caah scanned the crowd and he glanced at Ikaros one last time before bidding his farewell.
“It seems Miss Fei Fei and her cohorts are old acquaintances with Miss Ikaros, I will be excusing myself from further imposition now. I hope I don’t meet you girls during the tournament or I might just have to surrender because I can’t imagine hitting exquisite young misses such as you girls.”
