14 Ch. 14 The Stare (1/2)

Aside from his curiosity about the match, Richard sensed other powerful fire elemental energy from the second floor.

He saw a blonde man stood there with a concerned look.

”What about that person?” asked Richard.

”Which one?”

”The person who also looks at Scarlet with a worried look. The one who is wearing a black robe with a red stripe in the middle.”

”Ah, that is Edward. He was the bodyguard of Scarlet and now her fiance.”

”Bodyguard?”

”Fiance?”

Richard and Niken asked simultaneously with different questions. Richard was more interested in the bodyguards part, while Niken was more interested in the word of fiance.

The twins were opposite and not the same as other twins making Karyn was genuinely impressed.

Apart from the same face and eyes color, in other respects and interests, the two of them were utterly contrastive.

”That's right. What I heard was that Edward had been guarding Scarlet since she was a child. Maybe because they often together, eventually, the seeds of love appear between them. I heard that they had been in a relationship for almost four years before they finally got engaged last year.”

Richard turned his attention back to Scarlet then to Edward. If the man were Scarlet's bodyguard, then would that guy be stronger than Scarlet? And that means that person is in S-class?

”Karyn. How about Edward's strengths and abilities? Isn't he also a fire Elementalist? Who do you think is better? Scarlet or Edward?”

It's a bit confusing as to why Richard asked that, but Karyn still answered casually.

”I've never seen Edward fight, and certainly, no one would dare to challenge him. Edward is already at level S. Moreover; he will go two to four times a month on a mission given by the higher-ups. So whether he is better than Scarlet or not, I guess he should.”

”I thought you said Scarlet was the best fire Elementalist?”
