Provocation

Villain Ch 57. Provocation 

Vivian's heart fluttered as she looked into Allen's eyes, feeling a warm blush creep up her cheeks. At that moment, the simple words that had just passed between them filled her with indescribable joy.

But the moment was suddenly shattered by the sharp sound of Shea's voice, cutting through the silence like a knife.

"Do you want another match?" Shea challenged, her eyes scanning the rest of the swordsman's team, hoping that one of them would accept her challenge. There was a competitive glint in her eyes.

Before anyone else could respond, the mage spoke up, his displeasure evident in his tone. "The hunting spot is yours," he said, his voice heavy with irritation. "We are not interested anymore."

The mage strode past Allen and the rest of his team with a confident and purposeful gait, his robes billowing behind him like wings.
