Chapter 204: Slapped

Name:Luck is a Charm Author:Idczhen
"N-No, don't do it." Leon Camellia shouted in horror.

Zen was rendered speechless by such a coward and spineless bastard. 

'You have the galls to call me unqualified for Krista yet you are scared senseless.' Zen cursed inwardly and wondered if everyone in this world was like him.

Is there even any strong and intelligent enemy or do these young masters keep appearing like ants in every scene?

Alas, Zen doesn't have a clear answer except that he seems to be a magnet for these pests.

"I merely walk toward you and haven't even done anything yet," Zen said calmly but his murderous aura continued to intensify, causing Leon Camellia to turn pale.

"Stop it!"

Suddenly, a loud female voice shouted from afar and Zen tilted his head slightly to glance at this familiar yet annoying lady.

"When did this scenario change into a little sister coming to the rescue? I was expecting an old foggy from the Camellia family to come and stop me." 

Zen teased slightly as he saw the female rushed toward him and started to glare at him.

That female without any suspense or surprises is none other than Daphne Camellia.

Daphne Camellia puffed her chest out and started pointing her finger at Zen before yelling, "Hmph, not only did you bully me in the auction house and the forest but you also dared to bully my older brother who just came back from the academy to visit us."

Afterward, she turned around and lifted Leon Camellia up from the ground.

At this time, Krista Dragoon also walked forward and held Zen's arm before glaring at Daphne Camellia. 

"You should mind your tone a bit, young lady from the Camellia family. Don't forget that if it weren't for Zen's help then you would have still been stuck in that forest without knowing when you can leave." Krista Dragoon sneered at Daphne Camellia.

Daphne Camellia trembled slightly from anger as she made sure Leon Camellia regained his balance first before glaring at Krista Dragoon.

"Of course I know that it was with his help that I could leave the forest faster. After all, we were gaining a lot of points without problem before joining your group." Daphne Camellia snorted and continued.

"Not to mention, I would have never thought the dignified princess that my older brother looks up to is no different than a whore that spread her leg at any man."

SLAP!

The slap on Daphne Camellia's face was so loud that even Krista Dragoon raised her eyebrow in surprise.

Meanwhile, the crowd held a disbelief expression as they stared at a single person who had his arm raised high up.

Daphne Camellia touched her face slightly bruised and had a dark red-print palm on it as she stared at him in disbelief.

"Y-You actually dared to raise your hand against a woman!" 

Daphne Camellia pointed at Zen as she roared in anger with some disappointment filled in her face.

Zen kept a solemn expression as he glared at Daphne Camellia and Leon Camellia before taking a deep breath.

"Listen, if it weren't for your relationship with Angela then I wouldn't have let you off with a single slap," Zen replied in a cold tone and continued.

"Scram before I won't be able to control my anger from crippling the both of you. Also, make sure you watch your older brother's behavior if you truly cared about him because I would have made sure he met Jared Kaiso's fate today for his audacity."

Afterward, Zen turned around and hugged Krista Dragoon's waist as he walked toward the Palace Moon Restaurant, leaving the dazed Daphne Camellia alone who held an indescribable expression.

At the same time, Krista Dragoon looked at him from a different perspective, almost like she turned into a little girl that found love with her idol.

Krista Dragoon leaned on Zen's shoulder with a blissful smile as she swirled her finger around his chest.

"You're so different today." Krista Dragoon said gently.

Zen glanced at her briefly before chuckling softly.

"Different? How am I different from my usual self?" Zen asked, hoping for some clarification.

Meanwhile, Krista Dragoon pondered for a moment before looking at him with a blissful smile. "Well, your personality became extremely cold-hearted when Leon Camellia shouted at you and the sky seemed to collapse from your anger."

And she continued, "The most surprising action you did today was the slap you hit on Daphne Camellia's face. I never really seen you hit a woman directly like that and your final warning was extremely cold that my arms started to have some goosebumps."

Krista Dragoon lifted her sleeve up to show her beautiful and glistening skin for Zen to view.

Zen leered at it with a lewd expression as he pecked Krista Dragoon's cheek and sighed softly.

"Maybe you're right that I'm indeed a bit different from how I usually act but those two asked for it," Zen said in a reflective tone, almost like he thought that his action from before may be a little bit overboard.

'Was I really too harsh on Daphne Camellia?' Zen pondered inwardly before shaking his head that he did nothing wrong.

After all, she dared to ridicule his women right in front of his face for no logical reason and he was already kind enough to let her off with a mere slap.

If it were Leon Camellia who shouted those words then he was sure that he would make his fate worse than Jared Kaiso.

"I could understand Leon Camellia's feeling given the fact that he has a crush on me and may have lost his mind when he found that I have someone already." Krista Dragoon said lightly and continued.

"However, I think Daphne Camellia seemed to be more jealous than angry at you for bullying her older brother."

Zen stopped walking when he heard her words and stared at Krista Dragoon deeply in the eyes.

Afterward, he asked slowly, "What is she jealous of then?"

Krista Dragoon twitched her mouth slightly as she realized he was clueless about a woman's feelings.
