That kind of accomplishment must feel more satisfying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Felyn was pleased, he’d be more likely to team up with her again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, this wouldn’t do. I need to find more Buff Seals myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Viloti realized that her previous approach was all wrong. Relying on flashy Tier-7 Seals wouldn’t make Felyn want to team up with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Milady, Felyn—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guard behind her quickly corrected himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lord Felyn and Miss Zervanie are moving again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This morning, Adelina and Viloti had also come to the dungeon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Learning from the mistake they made last time—where bringing too many people awakened the slumbering demon underground—this time they’d brought only a dozen elite guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And they hadn’t been watching Felyn and Zervanie the whole time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only when the guards alerted them to signs of a powerful magical beast did they use the Scouting Seal, just in case Felyn ended up in danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So their battle’s over,” Adelina said, watching as Felyn and Zervanie searched the ground for magic crystals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were standing very close—veryclose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie subtly shifted her body again, inching even nearer to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They seemed to be chatting. Zervanie kept sneaking glances at Felyn’s expression, her gaze full of care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She crouched in front of him with her arms around her knees, earnestly listening to his words and nodding from time to time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked adorable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adelina could barely sit still.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zervanie, I knew it! You’re starting to use those underhanded tricks after all!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Adelina, no peeking,” Viloti said, deactivating the Scouting Seal. The image of Felyn and Zervanie slowly faded from the screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I—I wasn’t peeking. I was just… worried about Felyn’s safety!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even as the image vanished, Adelina kept staring at the last frame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Zervanie’s smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She looks way too smug…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She still remembered how, long ago, Zervanie had boasted to her that she would marry Felyn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That proud, entitled expression had been burned into Adelina’s memory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hated that look. As if Felyn was some sort of possession that belonged to Zervanie alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adelina didn’t know what had happened to Zervanie since then—what she’d been through, how her attitude might have changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there any way to… make the two of them stand a little farther apart?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She mumbled as she thought out loud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Viloti sat down on a cushion beside her, also pondering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew she shouldn’t interfere with Felyn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But seeing another girl so close to him… she couldn’t help feeling just alittlejealous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve got it!\" Adelina clapped her hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why don’t we send someone to pretend to be a fortune-teller?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A… fortune-teller?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah. Just have them tell Zervanie and Felyn that today isn’t a good day for men and women to be near each other. Or maybe say silver-haired people shouldn’t go dungeon diving today. Or that it’s bad luck for songstresses. Or blue-eyed girls shouldn’t enter the dungeon at all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Viloti could already imagine Zervanie’s face if she actually ran into that fake fortune-teller.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d be fuming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silver hair, songstress, blue eyes, opposite sex—every single line would be targeting her alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sigh…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adelina rested her cheek in her hands and glanced at Viloti, catching her expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know, I know. I’m a bad girl. You don’t even have to say it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She answered Viloti’s gaze before it became a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I won’t really do it. I’m just venting, okay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since falling for Felyn, Adelina felt like she’d turned into a complete villainess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She peeked at his movements, plotted ways to keep other girls away from him…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But this really isn’t normal,” she said, standing up and brushing off her skirt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There arewaytoo few magical beasts near Felyn today. It’s weird.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They only had a dozen or so guards, and they were keeping their distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no way their presence should have frightened away the monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this rate, Felyn and Zervanie might only run into two or three magical beasts all day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That would completely delay his Divine Affinity growth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More importantly…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It meant Zervanie could spend evenmoretime with him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go help Felyn draw in a few monsters. That’ll at least speed up his progress.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But what if Felyn notices us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He probably won’t, right? …Right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn was reviewing their performance that morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not great—but acceptable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’d only run into two magical beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was a weak Treant so feeble that even Zervanie had trouble picking up its loot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other was the Tier-3 monster from earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to Zervanie’s Buff Seals, his Tier-1 Seals had hit with the power of Tier-4.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The glowing crystal light made the open terrain exceptionally bright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gentle breeze carried the scent of grass through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beneath them stretched a sloping green hill, like a plush carpet of moss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Adelina had imagined, a nearby lake shimmered with silver ripples from the wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Felyn and Zervanie sat side by side on the vibrant grass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was lunchtime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“F-Felyn… I can’t open this bottle.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie held out a water bottle and blinked quickly, trying to mask her nervousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Got it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felyn, did you make all this yourself?” she asked as he pulled out the lunchbox he had prepared that morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah. Made it this morning.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m so jealous. You’re such a good cook. I’ve got no talent at all in the kitchen.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie cradled her face in her hands and gave him a smile as sweet and gentle as a true maiden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Everyone has different strengths. I’m bad at plenty of things, too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe it was because of the earlier fight, but Felyn was actually engaging her more earnestly now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zervanie let out a soft gasp and grabbed her ankle, wincing slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s wrong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My foot hurts. I think I twisted it earlier when I got lifted.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She slowly took off her boots, revealing her black thigh-high socks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lifting her leg, she gently peeled the sock down with her hand. It was like watching a slow, delicate performance of light and color.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her long, well-shaped legs were bathed in the gentle light of the crystal overhead, giving them a soft, luminous glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At her slender ankle was a faint red mark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That tiny blemish somehow made the otherwise flawless sight feel even more fragile—and beautiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the sock finally slipped off completely, her pale foot brushed softly against the grass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene unfolded exactly as Adelina had feared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eh, it’s not that bad. Just a scratch.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only… Felyn’s reaction wasn’t quite what Adelina had expected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1209,"2026-06-09T04:36:14.214Z",1,"novelbin.me","bc8a30c7bd05cebe80602583356a085629786fa4db75708a6eedf52e8dcf68e6","shut-up-young-lady-obediently-hand-over-the-mone-chapter-240","shut-up-young-lady-obediently-hand-over-the-mone-chapter-238",727,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fshut-up-young-lady-obediently-hand-over-the-mone-cover.jpg"]
