256 The Conflict Between Lar and Aizu (1/2)

Lashar left the inner garden to show Swordmad's group their rooms in the mansion, but Yale didn't go with them despite being the one who invited them.

Yale chose to go with Wyba and the beast horde to avoid them having any problems on the way to the designated area for the beast horde.

After all, although they had permission to keep the beasts in Larken City and those beasts were under Wyba's control, it wasn't impossible that someone wanted to kill them due to the fear and Wyba would have a rough time trying to protect the beast horde without harming any of the attackers.

Thus, Yale decided to tag along to use his Origin Sword Bloodline to keep the attackers unable to act towards them; that was the best deterrent for such problem.

Another reason for Yale leaving the group and choosing to go with Wyba was that he had noticed the gaze of Lar towards Aizu and knowing both of them, Yale had no doubt that some conflict would happen among the two girls in a short time. Of course, only a verbal conflict, Yale believed that both of them knew that he would be angry if they provoked real harm to the other.

As for what to do when he knew that a verbal conflict between two girls with romantic feelings for him would happen, Yale had chosen to flee to avoid being dragged into their conflict. He had chosen that option because he believed that if he were dragged into that conflict, no matter how he acted or what he said, the situation would end badly to him.

Yale had read a lot of novels, including some related to romance and the male characters dragged to arguments between two girls with feelings for that character never ended well for the male character no matter how he reacted.

Of course, that was only in novels, and Yale lacked experience in real life, but he still wanted to try avoiding being present in that conflict because he believed that even though a novel might be a bit exaggerated, it shouldn't be that far from reality.

The guess of Yale about that those two girls would have a conflict in a short time was right because those two started a conflict against each other as soon as they were left alone.

Due to Aizu being Yale's disciple, she had a room at the side of the room of Mercer. Lashar felt that it was normal that fellow disciples had the rooms near, to help Yale when he went to teach them. If he needed to go from one point of the mansion to another one each time he wanted to go seeing any of his disciples, it wouldn't be efficient.

Yale's room was near those rooms, but in another area, that area had been reserved for his own use, and no one could enter without his permission. He had done too many cruel experiments in the previous days, so it was normal that Lashar gave so much space to him.

It would have been a problem if she invited someone into the mansion, and they managed to see some of those experiments; experimenting with the souls of others wasn't something rightful after all.

Of course, Lashar didn't dare to tell him to stop using that space after he finished his experiments. After all, the mansion was too big, and she didn't bother by having such space occupied by someone who even the clan founder of the Larken Clan admired.

Until that point, Aizu having a room there didn't have any problem, but Lar's room was the room on the other side of Mercer's room. She had been appointed by Yale to take care of him, so it was normal that her room was also near.

Thus, when Lashar continued her way to show the rooms to the other three, who would reside in another area of the mansion, Lar and Aizu were left alone and then stared at each other.

”So, you are Aizu, Yale's disciple. I am Lar, Yale's fiancée.”

Lar wanted to mark her territory showing her status as Yale's fiancée; she hoped that Aizu would just give up.

”Fiancée? So what? I have been a fiancée of two different men due to the orders of my clan, but I never married any of them. In fact, both of them are already dead. Being Yale's fiancée is just something forced by your clan; you can just dream about using that status to suppress me.”

Aizu wasn't a little girl who would get scared after hearing about some nobles like she was six years ago; she had matured a lot and didn't fear anyone, especially if that person was her rival in love.

In the past, she had truly thought that Yale would have a better life in the Larken Clan given his talent, but after the years passed, she noticed that she didn't want to give up in her love. Moreover, when Yale showed his prowess, she was sure that Yale didn't need any noble clan as background to turn strong.
