Yeman readied himself and steadied his breathing. No matter what happened, he had to save their life. He secretly transmitted to Night that if a fight broke out, her priority was to save Aunt Claire and herself while Yeman was going to save Eina and himself. 

He wondered who this man was. Another antagonist of Eman? He doubted. 

Yeman glanced at the golden-haired lady. He noticed that the man and she were identical to each other, and also the woman with them. Knowing that they arrived together, he guessed that they knew each other and probably a family. However, he noticed Hannah's stare towards him wasn't so kind.

He narrowed his eyes. Maybe they were her father and mother? Or brother and sister? Yeman guesses.

But Yeman got his answers with Hannah's next words, "Father, he's a member of the subjugation team as well. So, it's only natural for him to come. He's invited to this party too."

Father? So, he's her father, huh. Well, he expected it. Perhaps the woman was her mother. Yeman concluded. But soon he remembered something. 'Wait, aren't her parents supposed to be the close friends of Eman's parents? He thought but realized that it wasn't a surprise for them to be so angry at him. After all, they believed that Eman was the one who raped their niece.

Ru-Han squinted his eyes towards him, surprised at Hannah's words. He couldn't believe that this magic-less person had the guts to join such a dangerous mission. 

"Puffft," he chuckled. 'Little Han, are you still defending this despicable person even after what he'd done?" he said to Hannah. Ru-Han did not mention the issue but he knew that Hannah knew what he meant with his words.

Hannah was quite shaken by her father's words. "No father, I'm not! He's honestly on a mission. Even Jura and the others can testify."

After hearing his name mentioned by the person he loved, Jura felt excited and felt he had to prove her honesty to her parents. "It's true Uncle Ru…" Jura hastily seconded to Hannah. "But this man was a cheater, he ditched on his squad and went to Miss Mayu's squad to have a part of their success! In a sense, this person needs severe punishment for neglecting his duty!" Jura accused him.

"No! My brother has saved many people!" After Jura's words, they all fell silent when Eina suddenly shouted to defend her brother. Even Yeman was surprised as well. Although she was currently shaken by the strong magical aura coming from Ru-Han, still she was defending her brother.

Jura and the others gawked before a loud guffaw escaped from their mouths.

"Hahaha, what the hell is saving many people?!"

"Hahaha, Who saves who? The worm?!"

"This worm spouting lies!"

"Little girl, is that the lie your brother had told you?"

"Puwhaha, damn you worm! Not only you lied to your squad, but you also fed your sister with nonsense!"

Jura bellowed at him. Hannah, on the other hand, was staring at him with disgust. Until now, she regretted that she used to trust him. He was already beyond help. He must die. If not, he would endanger many people's lives. He clenched her fist while staring daggers at him.

Yeman put his hand on Eina's head. Such a kind sister. He thought. Yeman already regulated his calm demeanor. His calmness had returned even in the face of such pressure coming from a higher realm expert. He could not lose his focus.

Regardless, he knew that it was too late already to say that he didn't come here to fight and that he came here to enjoy the banquet.

Actually, he had many ways to escape untouched. But he won't escape. And why would he do that? He wasn't even at fault here.

His only problem was the reaction of his body towards Hannah. It looks like the previous host's love towards her was beyond his understanding. He could even feel the sadness from within.

He was conflicted. No doubt that he loves Marie. However, why did he feel inferior to Eman's love towards Hannah?

Yeman was puzzled at this thought. But he pushed the thought at the back of his mind as it wasn't necessary for the current situation.

"....."

"My lord," through telepathy, Night called out to him.

"Just do what I said," Yeman replied calmly.

"Really!" For some reason, she sounded excited.

"Wait!" The guffaw immediately died down and silenced the room at the sudden yell.

".....", Night fell silent as well. She was about to do the same but someone came in. She looked at the owner of the voice.

Hearing the familiar voice, Yeman glanced as well. As expected, "She?" He mumbled.

Seeing Hemina approaching them, Jura's grin broadened. He knew that Hemina had a bad treatment towards the worm guy.

"Lady Hemi, fufufu," Jura laughed mischievously. Now, the worm is dead. Jura thought. It was his fault for telling lies.

Hannah squinted her eyes towards Mina. But Mina's eyes only had a target. Jura chuckled further after noticing Hemina was staring at the Worm guy with a serious expression on her face. In his mind, Hemina was staring at Eman out of anger.

Yeman was surprised to see her. For a short time, he didn't see her, she looked more attractive than before. Her hair grew a little longer and it suits her very well. Even the dress she was wearing at the moment, looks good on her, she matured. Though he found it odd to see her in a girly attire.

Honestly, he could not forget her as she was the girl who almost killed him in the mission. And the same girl who almost did an indecent act with him.

"....."

Though he couldn't feel any malicious intent from her towards him.

"How are you?"

She said bashfully which made everyone gawk with wide mouth open. Even Jura was stunned at Hemina's reaction while greeting the worm. Wait! Is this Hemina from the Skyblaze family?!! The one who was feared by the most males in the academy?!! Jura questioned himself. Actually, not only him. Even the others had similar reactions as him. Hemina was known as someone with a bad temper. And she would beat up anyone who pissed her. It was also the reason that even though she was an outstanding beauty, no one dared to approach her. Especially that she was from the 3rd strongest family in the empire. Who wanted to anger a member of such a family?!!

However, what is with her face at the moment?! Hannah blinked her eyes in wonder. Aside from that, who is that other beauty together with that despicable person? Why was she standing so close to him? Hannah asked herself.
