907 Four 3 (2/2)
”No faith whatsoever.” Clara replied without hesitation.
”Our husband has gotten quite popular. Even the Sapientia fairy Aritzia is so very interested in you. In the long history of the Sapientia News Network, especially during Aritzia's tenure as their head editor, they've never spent so much time and space on a single person.” Madeleine was only passively commenting as she took advantage of her position of Dyon's shoulder to stroke his hair, but she only managed to pour oil on the already raging fire that was Clara.
”Ow, ow,” Dyon protested. ”This Aritzia doesn't even know that all her articles are about the same person. The masked man and Dyon Sacharro are two different people to her, spare me!”
By now, Dyon had made it back to bedroom to find Ri taking a nap with a smile on her face, not bothering with them in the least.
”Who asked you to be so popular?” Clara berated. ”For now, news of Madeleine being your wife has remained within the Flaming Lily Sect and only a select few core disciples and Elders know of this fact. But, now that you should be exiting soon, the Flaming Lily Sect might decide to become more liberal with the information. Since people can't find you, they'll go to find Madeleine. Don't you know how to be more lowk –?”
Dyon dived onto the large bed, causing Clara to squeal mid-nag. Somehow, in the process of diving onto the bed, Dyon's hands had unclothed Madeleine and Clara. Madeleine had been wearing her sect's formal dress, but how Dyon managed to unclothe Clara who had been wearing pants and armor was beyond them. The methods of a horny man truly were astounding.
”Okay, I'm listening now.” Dyon said innocently, leering at Clara and Madeleine's barely covered bodies.
Clara rolled her eyes, but actually didn't mind her body being exposed in front of Dyon like this. Despite being separated for so long, the moment the met again, they felt right at home again.
Dyon plopped down between the two of them, closing his eyes to listen to Clara's ravings with a content smile on his face, when suddenly a thought crossed his mind.
”You mentioned the Flaming Lily Sect, are there movements I should be aware of?”
Madeleine interjected, ”Because of the odd political landscape of that quadrant, I have no choice but to go back for every campaign. During a campaign three years ago, while I was in the Emperor Trials, we lost one of the final two towers of a universe we have a weak position in.
”So, right now, the Fiery Lotus Sect owns 7 of the 8 towers and will likely make a big push, once again, to conquer the last tower and force an invasion.
”They've come close in the past two campaigns, but we managed to hold them off. However, this time, we've gotten word that they've partnered with the Golden Crow Sect to form a joint attack and force us to split our focus.
”If we lose this tower, we're only a step away from losing a universe. If that happens, we'll slip down from the Emperor God Clan ranks down to the King God Clan ranks…”
