In the mountains of Bera within Ethereal Realm, three young women sat in a cave, roasting a wild rabbit over the fire. The delightful aroma filled the air within the cavern. Three large tigers lay beside the girls, serving as their loyal mounts.
These girls were none other than Josephine, Feenix, and Aislin, who had been drawn into Ethereal Realm along with Jared through the mysterious black hole.
However, upon their arrival, they did not land in the same area as Jared and ended up being separated from him by thousands of kilometers.
“Feenix, we’re lucky to have you here. In this Ethereal Realm, we’ve got food, drinks, and even these magnificent mounts,” Josephine said gratefully to Feenix. Over this period of time, the three girls had grown very close as they joined forces to search for Jared.
Josephine and Aislin were unfamiliar with Ethereal Realm. However, Feenix was a native of Ethereal Realm. As a celestial beast, her knowledge and prowess enabled them to lead a comfortable life in this place. Feenix had even tamed three tigers and turned them into loyal mounts.
“When those demon beasts see you, Feenix, they flee as if their lives depend on it. It’s quite amusing,” Aislin commented, patting the tiger beside her.
“Well, Feenix is a celestial beast. It’s only natural for ordinary demon beasts to fear her,” Josephine explained.
“If I hadn’t been sent to the mundane world, which caused my strength to become significantly reduced, even the elites in Imperial Beast City would have to show utmost respect to me,” Feenix stated, brimming with pride.
“The rabbit is ready. It smells divine! Let’s eat,” Aislin proposed, taking the roasted rabbit and sharing it with the others.
As Josephine held her portion, a hint of sadness clouded her expression. “I wonder how Jared is doing. I hope he doesn’t go hungry!”
“Don’t worry, Josephine. Maybe he’s living the life of luxury now and is surrounded by beautiful women,” Feenix comforted.
“I hope that’s true. Honestly, I don’t care how many women surround him. As long as I hold a place in his heart, that’s all I need,” Josephine said nonchalantly.
“Josephine, it’s wonderful that Master has such an understanding girlfriend like you,” Feenix remarked.
“It’s also great that he has a loyal maid like you, Feenix. Not only can you save him in crucial moments, but you can also keep him entertained in bed,” Josephine teased, glancing at Feenix with a smile.
“Josephine, stop it…”
Blushing with embarrassment, Feenix playfully punched Josephine. Just then, a faint aura drifted into the cave from outside. The three girls’ expressions immediately turned grim.
“That guy just won’t give up, huh? How many days has it been?” Aislin furrowed her brow. She had barely finished speaking when a male voice resounded from outside the cave.
“Ladies, I know you’re all in there. Stop hiding. from me. No woman can escape my grasp. I’m Kaison Tall, after all!”
The voice continued. “Any woman I’ve set my sights on will eventually become mine. Feel free to ask around! The Tall family is renowned in this mountainous region of Bera. You wouldn’t believe how many women just throw themselves at me, yet I haven’t spared them a second glance! Consider yourselves fortunate that I’m interested in the three of you. The four of us together will make a spicy combination indeed!”
The bold provocation incited anger in Josephine and the others. Since encountering Kaison in a nearby town, he had relentlessly pestered them, which irritated them to no end.
Unfortunately, he was a Body Fusion Realm expert, while Josephine and Aislin were only at the Eighth Level of Martial Arts Sovereign. As for Feenix, she had only achieved the Eighth Level of Manifestor. Even if they joined forces, they wouldn’t be a match for Kaison.
Consequently, they had no choice but to hide from him, but he seemed to have an uncanny ability to track them down.
