The leader of the Astrea Familia.

The relaxed state of these people made Chunji, who had been tense, relax a little.

However, the excitement came to an abrupt end when Lyra led in two Lynns and Chunji.

“Lyra?” Alexie spoke first, sitting up straight on the sofa and glancing at Lynn and Chunji. “And who are these two?”

The others followed Alexandra's gaze and looked at Lyra.

Lyra pointed at Lynn, as if she wanted to say something, but clearly didn't know how to phrase it.

Lynn took a step forward and began to introduce herself.

"Sorry to bother you all."

"My name is Lynn."

"I'm here to see my fiancée, Kaguya Gojou."

All eyes turned from Lynn to Kaguya Gojou.

Kaguya herself was stunned. Her eyes widened slightly, and her fingers gripping the map tightened unconsciously.

"puff--"

An uncontrollable laugh broke the silence.

"Hahahahahaha!"

Alexie could no longer contain herself. She rushed to Kaguya's side, patted her shoulder hard, and laughed so hard she almost fell over.

"Kaguya! When did you secretly find a fiancé outside?!"

"You kept it from us for so long!"

Alexie's laughter seemed to light a fuse, and the other girls reacted as well, crowding around and chattering and teasing her.

"Really, Kaguya? This is the person you love?"

"She's quite pretty."

"No wonder you always reject other people's advances, it turns out you already have someone you're with."

Ryu put down her pen, her gaze sweeping lightly over Lynn before settling on Kaguya, and said with a smile;

"I see. No wonder I kept seeing you staring blankly in the direction of the Far East these past few days."

"Stupid elf! Even you..."

Surrounded and teased by her fellow clan members, Kaguya's cheeks flushed crimson at a visible speed, spreading from her ears all the way to her neck.

She was both ashamed and angry, and forcefully pushed away Alexandra, who was clinging to her; "Don't talk nonsense!"

She stepped up to Lynn, her voice cold, "Who are you? I know nothing about a fiancé."

Lynn was not surprised; in fact, he had considered all sorts of Kaguya's attitudes.

Even Kaguya's furious attack was somewhat anticipated.

Now it seems that at least their attitude has softened considerably, so at least a conflict is unlikely to break out.

“Your grandfather gave me a token.”

Lynn calmly took out an object wrapped in cotton cloth from his pocket and gently handed it over.

Kaguya frowned, reached out and took the cloth, then unfolded it.

It is an exquisite knife guard with a simple and elegant design, and is engraved with five intricate family patterns.

Her mouth was slightly open, and her fingertips rubbed against the familiar patterns.

Seeing this, Alicia leaned closer and asked curiously, "Kaguya, is this true?"

"It's a token from my Gojo family." Kaguya nodded silently.

"Wow!!!"

The jeers in the hall grew even louder!

Kaguya's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

She took a deep breath; her sense of justice prevented her from breaking her grandfather's promise in public.

But it's absolutely impossible for her to accept a complete stranger as her fiancé.

So, this is the only way.

Kaguya had a good idea in her mind, and she looked up at Lynn.

"Since it's Grandpa's decision, I won't refuse it outright."

"However, I can postpone the engagement for ten years."

You know what I mean, right?

"So, I'm giving you a choice."

"Want to have a match with me?"

"If you win, I will immediately acknowledge the marriage and marry you."

"If you lose, you must voluntarily give up this engagement, how about that?"

"This is good for both of us."

P.S. Please give me flowers and ratings.

4. Goddess Astraea

choose?.

I knew it wouldn't go that smoothly.

Lynn's mind started to wander.

Refuse to choose?

That would only make the situation more awkward, and since Kaguya isn't refusing and is just dragging it out, wouldn't that offend the Astrea Familia?

At present, the people of the Astrea Familia seem to be quite kind.

But who knows what will happen next.

Agree to a competition?

He definitely can't beat Kaguya at level 3.

What should I do?

"This is not fair!"

Before Lynn could answer, Haruhime behind him couldn't help but speak up. The little fox mustered her courage and stood protectively in front of Lynn. "Lord Kaguya is a Level 3 adventurer, while Lord Lynn is not an adventurer yet. This competition is unfair."

Kaguya glanced at Haruhime and said calmly, "I will have the goddess impose restrictions on me, and I will not use any abilities or the level advantage of a LV3 adventurer."

Perhaps the goddess of justice, Astraea, can impose restrictions on her own kin.

But Lynn's years of fighting experience are something he can't match.

Lynn smiled bitterly to herself, "Is there any difference?"

He can't beat them anyway.

"Whether there's a chance or not, we'll just have to try our luck," Lynn suggested, attempting a different approach. "How about we have a running contest?"

Kaguya's expression darkened upon hearing this, and she was about to speak when a gentle yet sacred voice came from the second floor.

"Alright, children."

Everyone looked up and saw a goddess in a pure white, immaculate long dress smiling as she walked down the stairs.

She exudes femininity and has a curvaceous figure.

Her words and actions gave her an impression of chastity and nobility, but it was the pair of mounds carved out of the deep valley that truly sparked the imagination.

Anyone could tell at a glance.

She is a kind, compassionate, or rather, loving and righteous goddess.

Astraea, the goddess of justice.

She had obviously heard what happened.

"Whether we compete or not, it's getting late, let's wait until tomorrow morning to discuss everything."

Alexie, who had just been laughing so hard she was almost falling over, immediately stood up straight, a bright smile on her face, and waved to the goddess.

"Goddess Astraea!"

Ryu put down her pen, bowed slightly, and maintained a gentle smile, as if the person coming downstairs was an older sister she admired.

Kaguya's tense shoulders relaxed, and she turned towards the stairs. "Goddess Astraea, are you going to get involved in this?"

Although the words were unkind, the voice was very gentle.

"Kaguya, you need to learn from my wife's manners from now on. You can't be so cold-hearted..." Astraea smiled at Kaguya.

Leila pouted and rubbed her forehead; "Here we go again, the goddess's wife role-playing begins again."

The leader, Alexandra, pointed to Lynn and Chunji not far away and reminded them, "Goddess Astraea, there are outsiders here today!"

Astraea walked into the middle of the crowd, her gaze sweeping over Lynn and Chunji before she gave them a reassuring smile.

"Welcome to my clan, guests from afar."

"The contest proposed by Kaguya was indeed a bit rushed."

"You must be tired after your long journey. Why don't you stay here tonight? We can talk about it tomorrow, okay?"

Astraea's words gave Lynn a way out.

However, to everyone's surprise, Lynn shook his head.

He met everyone's gaze and spoke calmly.

"Thank you for your kindness, goddess."
