Starkel knew right away that he had lost to Severin. He was not as good as Severin, and he was hardly on Severin's level. He had no choice but to accept that he was almost nothing in front of someone so strong.

However, he still could not resign himself to that crushing defeat. He walked up to Elsa, looked into her eyes, and said to her, "You know how much I care about you, don't you? I feel compelled to tell you right now that I love you. I want to know whether you feel the same toward me. I hope you'll give me an answer."

Elsa was momentarily speechless. She felt that she had made her stance clear when she rejected his repeated invitations to watch a movie with her. She has been keeping a distance from him since the beginning! Elsa smiled bitterly and said to him, "I've always regarded you as a brother and a friend. I hope you'll understand that."

Starkel had a disappointed look. He smiled wryly and said to Elsa, "Guess I'm the one who's thinking too much then. I'll leave." Starkel flew up and left. Severin smiled wryly and walked up to Elsa. "I'm really sorry, Elsa. I didn't expect to offend your friend."

Elsa smiled helplessly and said, "I can't blame you for that. I never paid much attention to him before. He was always pestering me, and I've been a little annoyed at him too. It's actually a good thing that I could make my stance clear this time. It'll save us both the trouble in the future."

"We'll be going then, Miss Elsa," Diane said. "Come look for us in South Link City once you hand in your resignation letter."

"Let me see you all off." Elsa smiled. She looked at the women in front of her and could not help but ask, "By the way, you guys haven't introduced yourselves yet. You're not all my master's wives, are you?" Megan was taken aback by that question and immediately clarified, "I'm Megan. Severin is my brother-in-law. This is my mother, Felicia. My sister, Diane, is his first wife. Miss Sheila here is his second wife." Elsa looked at Lillie and Wendy with a strange expression and frowned, "And what about these two? Aren't they my master's wives too? They're so young and beautiful. Does my master only have two wives?" Severin cleared his throat awkwardly. "Ahem. Two is enough."

"They're our family's bodyguards, but they're strong and they have high attainment. Wendy here is also the granddaughter of Mister Horace Newman, one of the war gods," Megan introduced with a smile.

"Tsk, tsk! I didn't think he'd be surrounded by so many strong people who have kept a low profile! Even the granddaughter of a war god is willing to follow him and become his bodyguard," Elsa said in surprise. "Okay, we should leave and let Elsa continue training," Severin smiled and ushered everyone else out.
