Chapter 530: Esther.
The five of them hastily lowered their heads as their tails curled in fear. One of the women reacted quickly and spoke. "Lady Yasenia, I don''t know how much you''ve seen, but these insolent human ves have dared to raise their hands toward a beast human. They should be punished!"
The fan members looked at the lizard woman with strange eyes. ''Is she stupid?''
Yasenia asked. "Anything more?"
"Eh?"
"I''m asking if you want to say anything more."
The freezing and t tone made their bodies shiver as the gaze of a dragon locked onto them. Filled with fear and regret for following the kicked man''s n, they silently cursed at him in their minds as they thought of ways to escape this situation.
One of the younger-looking lizard men stuttered as he pointed at the dizzy person trying to stand up. "Matriarch, it was all his idea. If he didn''t be horny after seeing this human and forcing us with his authority, we wouldn''t havee here."
Yasenia hummed. "He forced you?"
The young man agreed quickly, feeling as if he had grabbed a lifeline. "T-That''s right! He didn''t allow us to speak to others and said that if we did, he would make us suffer."
Yasenia spoke calmly. "I''ve been here since the beginning. I didn''t see a single effort to stop him. On the contrary, you all looked quite eager."
Their faces drained of any color, feeling their hearts sink into their stomach.
Another looked at Yasenia and spoke with desperation in his voice. "M-Matriarch, after all, she is just a ve, right?"
"Just a ve…"
Yasenia asked. "Who was the one that made your interviews and tests to join the n?"
One of them gave a name Yasenia was unaware of.
Cecilemented. "He is from the third batch of recruitments. I think he was a tall and lean rodent kin male."
Yasenia lifted an eyebrow. "They allowed a third batch person to be in charge of recruitments?"
Cecile nodded.
Yasenia muttered. "That''s quite a strange mistake… I''ll have to investigate it."
Yasenia didn''t bother asking questions anymore and looked at the girls. "Tie them up. It seems that it is time to educate the newer recruits."
The t tone and meaning of those words made all five of them feel as if they''d fallen into a hell pit.
The dog kin woman spoke hastily, closely followed by the others.
"Wait, we are sorry, Matriarch! We won''t do it again!"
"I didn''t do anything! Please!"
"I''m innocent, Matriarch! I didn''t want to be part of this!"
"Please, have mercy, Matriarch!
"It was all his fault. We-."
Yasenia cut them off. "Shut them up. So noisy."
The S.L.U.T members moved as one, and in less than five seconds, they were all tied up in neat bundles strong enough to immobilize and silence them.
Yasenia walked into the room and looked at the six beast humans onest time before scanning the S.L.U.T. girls. "I do not see any battle traces. Did anything happen?"
They all smiled and answered as one. "Nothing happened, Matriarch!"
Luna was startled by the loud and coordinated shout out of her reverie from seeing the six beast humans being handled as if they were helpless animals.
Yasenia smiled with relief in her eyes and asked. "Are any of you injured?"
They all smiled sweetly and answered simultaneously. "We are perfectly fine!"
Yasenia chuckled. "That''s nice to hear."
Yasenia''s eyes moved toward the ck-haired curvy woman and asked. By the way, how is Luna doing?"
Yasenia approached the silent woman and looked at her up close while listening to them.
"Little sis is very obedient~."
"Yup, she is so cute, like a little doll~."
"I really want to feed her and make her sunken cheeks plump up."
"We also need to teach her reading and other things."
Yasenia reached before Luna whileughing and used her hand to lift Luna''s chin and meet with those emotionless and dead eyes.
The gorgeous ck-haired and green-eyed woman spoke. "Well, it is the first day after she joined us, so we are still trying to have her open up. Cecile informed us what happened to her, and we are trying to be careful. Before we can make her cheerful, there is still a long way to go."
Yasenia nodded and used her fingers to feel Luna''s arm and back. Luna felt a strange tingling but didn''t react, looking forward without any expression.
Yaseniamented. "Don''t worry. It is normal. But don''t be too soft with her. Force her to answer verbally when you ask her questions. Communication is key to recovery. You can''t have her cage up in her mind. She muste out and open up to be able to break the walls."
They all nodded thoughtfully.
Yasenia stood in front of Luna and lifted her chin again, smiling softly. "Speaking of which. Luna, how is living here? Do you feelfortable?"
Luna looked up as Yasenia was more than a head taller. Her expression was the same emotionless one.
Yasenia lifted an eyebrow. "Did you forget what I told you back in the tournament?"
Luna''s face changed minutely to show puzzlement. Yasenia''s sharp eyes caught that minute expression change.
She smiled and leaned forward, almost kissing Luna. "Luna, I said that if you don''t answer my questions… I''ll kiss you."
The S.L.U.T. members blushed and fanned their faces. ''Kya! She is so handsome!''
Luna''s pupils trembled as Yasenia''s breath spilled on her face.
For Luna, kissing was not a happy action by any means, something Yasenia understood.
Opening her mouth, Luna spoke with difficulty. "It… good."
Yasenia''s eyes softened, and she leaned back to give Luna more space. "What is good, Luna?"
Luna slowly opened her mouth again, using more than ten seconds to utter the following two words. "Live… here… Good."
The speech was intermittent; even for those two words, it took a few seconds.
Yasenia patted Luna''s head and pleasantly massaged her scalp. Luna felt something entering her head as a feeling of pure rxation hit her body. The sense offort was a foreign thing that made her eyes ck.
Yasenia lowered her voice and slowly exined. "Luna, all of them are humans. The same as you."
"…Me?"
Yasenia nodded. "Yes. Just like you. Therefore, you can get along with them without fear."
One of the girls closest to Luna smiled and said. "That''s right! You are our little sister now. No one can bully you anymore!"
Luna looked around, seeing so many unfamiliar facial expressions.
They were faces of kindness, cheerfulness, gentleness, pity, and other positive emotions.
She didn''t know why, but these expressions made Luna''s heart squeeze with unknown emotions, making her eyes feel sore.
Yasenia, Cecile, and the girls saw Luna slowly rubbing her chest as she blinked rapidly, her expression clueless, and they all felt a pang of sadness.
Yasenia sighed. "As you can see, she doesn''t even know what positive emotions are. She has probably been abused since birth, so nothing but life as a tool exists. No emotions, no knowledge, nothing. She is like a torn white canvas."
The ck-haired senior sister nodded. "We''ll teach her slowly."
They all nodded firmly.
Yasenia reminded them. "Also, she is very fond of Evelyn. Evelyn was the one who saved her, after all. Try to take turns apanying her to visit Evelyn… No, it is better to call her here."
Yasenia saw a few of them smile, and sheughed. "If I remember correctly, a few of you should be friends with your S.L.U.T. general, right?"
A few of them giggled.
"Matriarch, can we still buy your photos from her? We have no currency right now."
Yasenia nodded. "Don''t worry. I''ll ask the management team to create a way for all of you to gain points and earn Parus, this country''s currency. It will probably be something like the missions back in the academy."
One woman blinked. "Parus? Is it this rock?"
Yasenia saw the woman take out a high-level Parus and nodded. "That''s right. We are going to create a basic weing guide for this continent and what we are currently doing, so wait for it before you start interacting with the residents."
Another woman asked. "Yasenia, why did youe here?"
Yasenia remembered. "As I just said, I havee to exin the current situation in depth, but I need to deal with these six as soon as possible. What I can tell you, for now, is that this continent is extremely averse to humans, so until we are strong enough, you''ll have to act as ves when we are outside."
"Your ves!?"
Yasenia heard a strange excitement in the question, but she nodded nheless.
A few of them pumped their fists, leaving Cecile and Yasenia speechless.
Yasenia looked around and asked. "Who has been the leader until now?"
The same gorgeous woman stepped forward.
Yasenia looked at her in detail from close.
Cecile suddenly eximed. "Ah! No wonder I felt like senior sister was familiar."
The woman looked at Cecile, and Cecile smiled. "You are senior sister Esther, right?"
Esther smiled and nodded. "That''s right. I didn''t know you knew who I was."
Yasenia had a wisp of information from over two decades ago sh in her mind. "Oh? That senior Esther? The genius senior sister that was about to be a Core Disciple back at home?"
Estherughed and twirled one strand of her glossy ck hair with her finger. "You are overpraising me, Yasenia."
Yaseniaughed. "I honestly didn''t expect a talented senior like you to join my club."
Cecile smiled. "I really admire you, senior Esther. You were my objective back in the Academy before I met Yasenia. Why did you join Yasenia''s fan club?"
Esther chuckled. "It was curiosity at first. I asked myself: why are these girls creating a club for a junior? Therefore, I asked around and was dragged into it."
"I decided to try for a while and then leave, but after entering, I saw the weing atmosphere and the many benefits offered, so I decided to remain in the group."
Esther looked at Yasenia with admiration and spoke. "Moreover, you are someone worth following, Yasenia."
Yasenia smiled softly. "To be told something like that from the second-ranked of the Inner Disciple Violet ss is quite an honor. What level are you now, senior sister?"
Esther chuckled. "Ah, my cultivation has been a bit slow thisst month, so I''m only at the second level of the Unification Realm. Now, with the peace of mind returning and the new resources, I should arrive at the third level in about two months."
Cecile nodded. "As expected of senior sister."
Yasenia smiled andmented. "Let''s deal with these six and continue our talkter."
Esther realized. "Right. Does it matter if they hear us?"
Yasenia blinked. "Huh? I''m going to kill them. So, it doesn''t really matter."
The girls looked at them and saw that their faces were bewildered and filled with confusion.
Then, all of them prepared to walk outside.
