6 Scammy Bitch!

Stomp...stomp...

As the moon's light filtered through the hallway, a figure in a maid's outfit appeared to be walking.

The gentle wind made her long black hair oscillate as she continued to move back and forth.

Knock~

The figure knocked on a large door, the entrance to what seemed to be an important office.

"Come in," commanded a rough and authoritative voice from within, granting permission for the figure to enter.

Creak~

As the door swung open, the figure stepped inside, immediately bowing their head in deference to the man seated behind a grand desk.

An aura of superiority emanated from him, creating an almost suffocating atmosphere.

He appeared to be in his forties, with a well-groomed beard and a physique that showcased his well-defined muscles. The medieval-style coat he wore complemented his striking red eyes.

He tore his attention away from the document in front of him, focusing his crimson gaze on the figure.

He looked at the figure for a few seconds before questing. "Did something change? Or is he the same?"

The figure was non-other than Elisha's. She had come to his office to inform him about Zephyr's behaviour.

"Lord Vincent, Young master has changed."

"Hmm...?" Vincent raised an eyebrow in surprise. He hadn't expected any significant changes in his youngest son, Zephyr.

"Umm... And what so?"

"The Young Master's eyes... They are no longer gloomy and depressed. Now, they seem to have found their purpose," Elisha explained. "Young master also defeated Master Ron in a duel."

"Huh...?"

Even though his expression didn't change much, Vincent was surprised to hear his youngest defeated the fourth.

He gestured for Elsiah to leave as he turned his chair.

'Zephyr? That little weak boy defeated an Aura Disciple when he doesn't even have Aura?'

The corner of Vincent's lips curled up revealing a sharp grin as he looked outside the window, gazing at the bright moon.

"Interesting?"

Early in the morning, I woke up and was now being dressed up by Elisha.

At first, I felt a little uncomfortable with the idea of someone else dressing me, but Elisha insisted, and I eventually gave in.

'Well, it is normal in this world.'

Elisha was very attentive, carefully buttoning up my shirt before adjusting my collar.

As she leaned closer, her pretty face made me a bit flustered. I couldn't help but notice her sweet cherry scent.

"Hhff~"

Her hot breath tickled my neck as she fixed my collar, and I had to hold back a slight blush from forming on my cheeks.

Elisha seemed entirely focused on her task, not noticing my momentary flustered state.

"All done, Young Master," she said, stepping back to admire her work with a satisfied smile.

"You look quite handsome, Young Master," she complimented with a smile.

"Thank you, Elisha," I replied, trying to sound composed, though my heart was still racing a bit.

I took a step back and placed myself on the bed. With a big yawn, I started thinking about what I should do next.

"W...what?"

I blinked in surprise as I looked at the status window. Overnight, my fate points had increased significantly.

'Does sleeping count as well?'

As I pondered the reason for my fate coins increasing, the door of my room suddenly flung open.

"Do people in this world... like to barge inside other people's rooms?"

The same cliche thing happen yesterday and now it happened again?

'Did Ron come to get his revenge?'

As I looked at the door, I saw a beautiful red-haired girl standing.

She looked at me with her light red eyes, scanning me from head to toe before she continued to talk.

"You should be grateful that I took out some of my vacation time to come and help you," she said, all puffed up.

"Who is she?"

I asked Elisha as I could not remember a character with red hair who was familiar with Zephyr.

"...Huh? She is Clara, the first daughter of the Silverwood merchant family."

Although Elisha was startled, she quickly composed herself and answered me.

My eyes widened in shock after knowing her identity, but they quickly changed after remembering what she did to Zephyr in the story.

She was from one of the ten great families that helped the empire win the war against the demons.

The Silverwood family was medical-based. Their main business was selling elixirs, health potions, etc...

And the reason why she was here was probably for some expired medicine to Zephyr.

After Aria, his girlfriend dumped him. Zephyr wanted to become strong and get her back from kaesar, but his body was weak to make his dream come true.

And so he started buying potions and elixir from Clara to become strong but unknown to him Clara was giving him expired products at a way high price than market.

He almost died due to the medicine.

"As your good friend, I sneaked out this rare strength elixir. It was quite difficult for me but as my good friend, I'll let you have it for just 500 gold coins."

'500 gold coins!!?'

100 gold coins was more than enough for a normal family to live in luxury for their entire life and still have money for the next seven generations to live comfortably.

And this bitch's saying 'Just' 500 gold coin?

As Clara showed me the elixir, I examined it carefully. It looked quite normal, and I could understand why Zephyr fell for it.

The elixir didn't seem expired at all, but I wasn't going to take any chances.

"Can you get me some water, Elisha?" I requested calmly.

Elisha looked a little confused but followed My order and brought some water for him.

Clara's expression changed to a mix of surprise and concern. "Are you going to put the medicine in the water?"

I nodded, my expression indifferent. "Yes, I want to check if the medicine is expired or not?"

Clara's worry seemed to escalate. She leaned in, trying to reason with me. "What? Are you doubting me? Do you think I, Clara Hans Silverwood will cheat you?"

"Yes definitely," I muttered under my breath.

"Ok then, doubt me as much as you can but if the medicine isn't expired you'll have to give me 50000 gold coin and not to mention, you'll lose your only friend."

Clara tried to be as intimidating as possible, thinking that Zephyr will back off after her warnings.

'Hehehe... Let's see of you don't come, begging me to forgive you.'

She thought that Zephyr would be scared of losing his only friend and would beg for her forgiveness, but to her surprise, Zephyr just replied with a calm, "Okay."

Without any hesitation, I dipped the golden coloured elixir into the water and observed it closely.

A few moments passed in silence as I carefully watched for any changes in the water or the elixir.

After a while, I raised my head and looked at Clara with a slight smile. "It's a fake. The medicine has expired."

Clara's eyes widened, and she took a step back, trying to hide her shock. She didn't expect me to see through her deception.

"You... you're lying!" she stammered, attempting to regain her composure.

I shook my head. "No, I'm not. The water has changed color slightly, and that's a clear sign of an expired elixir."

"H-how dare you try to frame me!"
