Strongest Mage with the Lust system

Chapter 275 Honoured guest token

”Hey, itʼs grandpa Raku. He has returned.”

”Greetings, lord Raku.”

”Welcome, lord Raku.”

”Is sister Arya in the carriage?”

”Hehe, Letʼs follow. Weʼll see how uncle city lord punishes her for running away.”

”Arenʼt you her friend? Why are you getting excited to see her being punished?”

”Although Iʼm her friend, she always bullies me. So, itʼll be fun to watch her being scolded.”

...

As the carriage drove through the wide city streets, everyone, be they young or old, greeted the old man with respect.

At the same time, the children of Aryaʼs age ran after the carriage as they animatedly talked about Arya. Although they couldnʼt see the people sitting inside the carriage, they knew she must be inside since the old man had returned.

”Hehe, Arya, it seems youʼve been too naughty. Even your friends are excited to see you being scolded.” Leticia giggled when she heard the childrenʼs conversation.

”Humph! I never bullied anyone and have always been good to them, and they want to see me being punished. Iʼll deal with them after. Humph!” Arya pouted angrily. Max and the others couldnʼt hold back their laughter when they saw how adorable she looked.

After a while, the carriage stopped, and the old man called out, ”We are here. You kids can come out.”

”G-grandpa, are my father and mother waiting here?” When Arya heard her grandfather, she immediately put on an anxious expression and asked in a low voice as if afraid someone else will hear it.

”No, they arenʼt here yet. You can come out.” The old man laughed.

Phew!

Little Arya breathed in relief when she heard this and hurriedly opened the carriageʼs door and jumped down, ”Big brother, big sisters. Letʼs hurry up and go inside before my parent comes out.”

Max and others were taken aback by her sudden outburst. Suddenly, Leticiaʼs expression fell, and she asked in a deep voice, ”Granny, why is she afraid? Are her parents too strict?”

”Mmm?” Max and the others slightly raised their eyebrows when they heard her serious tone and saw her expression. ʼWhy was she acting strange all of a sudden? ʼ

”Leticia, are you alright?” Rima asked in concern. She had never seen Leticia wearing such an expression before.

”Yeah. Iʼm fine.” Leticia took a deep breath and nodded.

When Max saw her trying to calm herself down, he frowned, ʼCould she have some issues with her parents?ʼ He wasnʼt alone who thought like that. Belen and the old woman shared the same thought.

The old woman shook her head, ”No, her parents arenʼt strict. In fact, they love her a little too much. This is also why she is so mischievous.”

”Yes, big sister. My parents are very good to me.” Little Arya chimed in. She then put on a sad expression and continued, ”However, when I go out of the city without telling anyone, they get very angry and scold me.”

Leticiaʼs eyes reddened when she heard this; she took a step forward, crouched in front of her and patted her head, ”You are very lucky little Arya, to have such caring parents. So, remember to inform them if you want to go out in future, okay?”

”O-okay big sister.” Little Arya nodded when she the look in her eyes.

”Haha, what a sensible girl!” Suddenly, a peal of sweet laughter sounded from inside the city lordʼs mansion.

Whoosh!

”Hmm?” When they turned around to look at who it was, they saw a gorgeous Elvin couple in luxurious green robes walking toward them with smiles on their faces. The man was tall and sturdy and had sharp features, which made him look very handsome.

The woman by his side was also a beauty. Although her figure wasnʼt as curvaceous as Rimaʼs or Belenʼs, it was good enough to leave a man salivating after a look. She had skin smooth as a baby, thin lips, vibrant green eyes and black flowed hair, and she had a small silver crown on top of her head, which gave her a regal look and made her look even more beautiful.

ʼWhat a beautiful woman!ʼ Max exclaimed inwardly, and for a while, he couldnʼt move his gaze away from her.

”Mommy, daddy!” After hearing the voice, little Aryaʼs body trembled a little. However, when she saw them smiling, she excitedly called out and ran toward them before jumping toward the man.

ʼSo, they are her parents.ʼ Max and others finally identified the duo.

Seeing her jumping toward him, the man opened his arms and caught her. Then he laughed, ”Haha, you little girl. Youʼre finally back.”

”Yes, daddy!” Little Arya giggled and gave a kiss on his cheek, which made him became even happier.

The beautiful woman watched them for a few moments before she smilingly asked, ”My dear, werenʼt you saying that you would scold her? How come I canʼt see that happening?”

When the father and daughter duo heard her, they both trembled.

”Cough! I was going to do that.” Aryaʼs father coughed awkwardly. He then put on an angry expression, ”You little girl. You are becoming more and more disobedient. Even if you wanted to roam outside, should you have told informed us, huh?”

”Sorry, daddy. I will remember to tell you in future.” Little Arya apologized. However, from her expression, one could see that she wasnʼt sorry at all and had a mischievous smile on her face.

”Hmm, good.” Her father nodded and turned toward his wife, and said, ”See, she is sorry.”

”You...!” The beautiful woman was speechless. She sighed and shook her head, ”Forget it. You guys are hopeless.”

She then turned to look at the old couple and greeted them respectfully, ”Father, mother!” After that, she looked up and down at the little elf boy, and after seeing that he was fine, she sighed in relief.

”Greetings, auntie!” Noticing her gaze, the boy bowed toward her and apologized, ”Iʼm sorry, auntie. We went with telling you.”

”Itʼs okay. Iʼm sure it was Arya who forcibly took you with her.” She gently shook her head and smiled, ”Go and meet your parents. They have been worried about you.”

The boy nodded and ran inside the mansion after greeting Aryaʼs father.

After that, Aryaʼs mother finally glanced at Leticia and others and asked the old man, ”Father, who are these kids?”

When she asked this, her husband also glanced at them curiously. The old man glanced at Max and others and said, ”These little guys are our saviour.”

”Saviour?” The couple frowned when they heard this, and immediately their expression became solemn as they asked, ”What happened?”

The old shook his head, ”Iʼll tell you later.” He then turned toward Max and others and introduced the couple to them, ”This is our city lord, and my only daughter and Aryaʼs mother, Elena, and this man is her Aryaʼs father, who is also the supreme guard commander of our city, Ryan. You can call them uncle and auntie.”

ʼOh?ʼ When the couple heard the old manʼs last words, they became surprised.

Max and others bowed slightly toward them as they greeted, ”Greetings, auntie and uncle.”

”Greetings. Itʼs nice to meet you.” After seeing how their father treated them, the couple politely returned the greeting. The city lord then gestured for them to enter the mansion, ”Please come inside.”

...

After a while, the elf family, Max and others were sitting in a hall.

After listening to the old manʼs explanation, the city lord and her husband had grave expressions.

Suddenly, the couple stood up and bowed toward Max and others, ”Thank you for saving our family. Weʼll always be grateful to you guys.”

”This...” Max and others were stupefied by this and hurriedly helped them up, ”Uncle, auntie, you donʼt need to do this.” Leticia said.

However, the elf couple shook their heads, ”No, we need to. If it werenʼt for you, we would have lost our family.”

The city lord then said, ”If you guys ever need our help, please donʼt hesitate to come to us.” After saying this, she took out four badges and gave them to Max and the others.

The badges were made of wood, and a word was carved in silver colour that neither Max nor others understood. Apart from this, they looked completely ordinary.

”This is...” After Belen saw the token in her hand, she almost couldnʼt contain her excitement. Max, Leticia and Rima were puzzled by her reaction. Was there something special about these wooden badges?

Seeing their confused expressions, the city lord smiled and explained, ”These are the honoured guest tokens. With these, you can enter every bronze and silver grade Elvin city without paying anything and enjoy the VIP privilege in our auction houses and other establishments.”
