Chapter 19: Little Drama
Chapter 19: Little Drama
"Stupid cat, who told you to come out?" Charlotte began to show her displeasure even though judging from her behavior, she seemed very nervous.
Fortunately she was holding the steering wheel now, so she couldn't hit the cat like last time.
"Miss, I'm just helping you to gain true happiness, it's what my breed likes to do," the cat replied, acting as if she was innocent.
After that she looked at Levi.
"What do you think, will you marry her?" she asked.
A question like this coming from a cat, Levi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Of course, although a bit uncomfortable at first, he quickly relaxed.
His eyes glanced at Charlotte whose expression was erratic.
It was just that, although she was staring straight ahead, her eyes showed that there was a curiosity she was feeling right now.
It seemed that she was also very curious about the answer.
Her heart beat harder as she waited for that answer.
This woman who was obviously his mother's friend, in her 40s, who was more suitable to act as his aunt was really awkward and nervous in front of him.
If only she hadn't been as young as she was now, she probably would have just laughed at him even if he liked her and flirted with her directly to try to get her heart.
Unfortunately, she was no longer a woman in her 40s. She was at the peak of her youth where romantic feelings easily surfaced uncontrollably in her.
"Uhmmm..." Levi finally decided to clear his throat first.
"Why do you, a cat, care about this?" he asked.
Of course, he could not answer between two words, yes or no.
If he said no, it would end his relationship with Charlotte. She might not even see him again.
If he said yes, it was also no good because it was too early.
It was better to talk about other things first.
He was also curious why this cat had an interest in acting like a matchmaker.
"Miss Charlotte is my master, I naturally need to think of ways to make her life happier," the cat replied.
"Is that so? But why are you suggesting marriage?"
"Everyone knows that the pinnacle of happiness lies in marriage."
"Indeed, but cultivators often have a different view. For example, they view the greatest happiness as becoming more and more powerful. Especially among women, they often consider men unimportant if they have strength."
"That's true, but miss has a desire to have a romantic life."
"..."
Break!
Charlotte suddenly hit the brake pedal hard, making her car stop instantly, almost being hit by the car following behind.
"Stupid cat, hurry up and leave!"
As the car stopped, Charlotte was finally able to hit the cat again, making her disappear.
Although a peak cultivator, Levi was somewhat unsure how the cat could appear and disappear.
Where had she gone?
The Space Artifact? No, that was not how the Space Artifact worked.
Apparently, Charlotte also had a certain secret.
Levi did not plan on finding out what it was.
He looked at her as she sighed.
"What?" His gaze seemed to bother her so she asked in a cold tone.
With one of her personal secrets exposed, she must be embarrassed right now, especially since the one who knew about it was him.
Levi chose not to say anything to her, just smiled faintly, which made her a bit awkward again.
She stepped on the gas pedal, continuing the journey.
This time, she was apparently heading out of city.
"The fate of the world is unpredictable, but there are always interesting things that happen, including the impossible," Levi said, talking to himself while staring outside where there were many vast farmlands.
Charlotte rolled her eyes at him because of his words.
"What nonsense are you saying?" she asked.
She clearly felt his words were talking about them.
"Well, interesting nonsense, of course," Levi replied with a faint smile as he turned his gaze towards her.
It was as if she couldn't bear the sight of his gaze so she had to stare ahead again, increasing the speed of her car.
'Why is this boy so confident?' She wondered.
Although she knew Levi was indeed a confident type of guy despite his quiet personality, but in front of her, he usually did not have this much confidence.
Did he really not think of her as another older woman or a close friend of his mother, but a young woman he was familiar with?
Thinking about this more and more, Charlotte felt like her head might explode suddenly.
After passing through so many farmlands, Levi was surprised by the scene in front of him.
Suddenly he saw a huge, seemingly endless valley with a very dense forest on top.
He thought it was a valley because the land was like a valley, but calling it a forest fit too.
The point was that it was below the road they were on now.
The farther away, the land seemed lower, only the trees were taller.
Although it was now daytime, the sky above the valley seemed dark.
It seemed to have a different sun and the sun in the valley had already set as the sky at the end looked yellowish.
Charlotte stopped her car at the side of the road.
This was not a quiet place. There were quite a few people coming and the number of parked cars was greater, which meant the owners had entered the forest or valley.
"Stay here, I want to fight with one of the Monster Bosses to break through," Charlotte said suddenly.
She immediately got out of the car and walked into the valley in a hurry.
It seemed that her mind was in turmoil so she decided to go fight.
Levi did not follow her, but not because of her request.
He wanted to observe this valley first, checking the information on the internet.
Apparently, it was called the Twilight Forest Valley.
It was called like that because the sky above it was always in a state of twilight.
It was a very large area but could not be recorded by satellites.
From above, it was as if the valley didn't exist.
All kinds of Monsters and Undead were there, most of them had Stage Five cultivation and above so below that stage, humans were not advised to enter.
The danger level was high as the number who failed to return was quite large.
Of course, there was nothing to worry about with Charlotte since her goal was even one of the Monster Bosses. She must have fought many times with the Monster Bosses in this valley.
With her strength increasing, it was naturally getting easier for her.
