Chapter 495 Overthinking ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Emilia was just about to respond to her partner when she felt Crystal nudge her gently. "Look." The crimson-haired girl couldn't help but frown in displeasure when she saw who it was who caught her girlfriend's attention. 'I thought he would be dissuaded by the crowd, yet here he is...' Naturally, Alexander was too proud to approach her when she was being hounded by a bunch of other 'suitors', though it did please him to see Emilia…
-
Ginny didn't know if Alexander finally noticed her brother's fiery gaze, or if he was intentionally trying to provoke them. But when Jasper's anger was already at its peak, the bastard turned their way with a smile so smug that even she almost failed to resist the urge to stomp over and cave his teeth in! Fortunately, she was immobilized by her own arms clutching at her brother to prevent him from doing just that, giving Ginny just enough time to regain her senses. "Remember, Jasper, we…

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The venomous gaze of the hero didn't go unnoticed by any of them, but while Emilia usually might have considered showing Amos his place, she didn't want to make Crystal any more uncomfortable than she already was. Although the 'girlfriend' that the silver-haired boy brought with him failed to look like an exact replica of Crystal despite her apparent efforts, how could the blonde heroine not feel nauseous when faced with her…
-
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ What upset Emilia the most wasn't the fact that Amos got together with a girl similar to Crystal — as that wasn't too shocking considering his obsession with her before — but the fact that he dared to do something like that at such a heavily publicized event. Given how many highly influential people were attending the Golden Crown, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that every single photo and video captured by the press…

Although everyone knew that the real reason for not allowing vehicles to get close was for security, the people from Phoenix still liked to pretend that it wasn't so. Throughout the way, the 'guides' assigned to each of the guests seemed to take great pride in introducing the surrounding 'heritage' and the history behind it. Of course, compared to those who were unfortunate enough to be listening to their tirade for the thirtieth time, Emilia at least still found it quite…
-
Since every guest invited to the Golden Crown was only allowed to bring one person with them as their chosen companion, normally only two of them could follow Emilia and Sam into the venue. After much deliberation, the crimson-haired girl finally settled on taking Crystal and Dixie along, while leaving Mindy and Noelle to assist Justine with her mission instead. Taking Crystal with her went without saying, of course. With the heroine's ability, it would be far easier for her to figure…
-
Because her mission was still a top priority, Justine and Dixie's friends obviously couldn't stay in the villa for too long. Thus, they left shortly after greeting Sam and Noelle, and introducing themselves to Cindy 'and' Mindy. It wasn't like the others could enjoy a leisurely vacation either, however. Not only was there little time left before the event started, but Crystal also had the responsibility of the Prime Arbiter, leaving her with no choice but to continue monitoring the proceedings…
-
Normally, even if her ability allowed her to do so, Crystal wouldn't bring other people's private matters to light unless absolutely necessary. But being already familiar with some of Emilia's more possessive thoughts, the blonde heroine was naturally a little panicked. She was hoping that Dixie would help her figure out a way they could break the news to Emilia in a way that would lead to the least amount of 'damage', but with the dark-haired girl not even getting what was happening, Crystal…
-
Emilia thought that both Crystal and her big sister were being a bit too optimistic, but she also hoped that their hunch was right. After all, if the prime minister of Phoenix had a good impression of her, it would certainly make things much easier in the future. Of course, if she turned out to be hostile instead, then some of their plans would need a little 'modification' to prevent unnecessary risks. 'I hope it's not like that, though.' She sighed. Sam coughed. "By the way,…

The country of Phoenix was widely acknowledged as one of the most prosperous in the world. With the world's reserve currency being issued by them, and their capital also being the most popular spot to host international 'peace talks' and other matters of worldwide interest, many rightly referred to Phoenix as the 'Heart of the World'. This included the Golden Crown, which although more oriented towards the leading business people of the world, also welcomed many top-tier politicians and…
