Elara and Adam were in the middle of a conversation. They nicely discussed their plans for the day, for tomorrow, the weather, and the like. Adam encouraged Elara to order expensive meals, satisfying her ego and lust for power and wealth.
Adam learned a great deal about Elara in this short time. He could not call her a bad woman, for she had been surprisingly faithful to her husband until that day. Of course, she had an arrogant nature and looked down on others.
But Adam had that trait, too, so he couldn't accuse her of anything. He smiled softly and continued the conversation. They were discussing very trivial things, but it was obvious that their touch was becoming more and more frequent.
Adam was surprised when he realized that sometimes Elara was even more aggressive than he was, and he realized that the first stage of seduction had been completed. A few hours later they left the underground bar together and Adam decided to accompany her to Elara's house.
"Johnny, you really shouldn't have bothered." Elara touched his arm worriedly. "I could have walked myself..."
"Of course not, Elara! You are a beautiful and gentle woman whose beauty dazzles even the moon. I am sure that many will want to disturb you." Adam shook his head firmly and smiled softly, squeezing Elara's hand. "Please let me accompany you. This is a personal request of mine."
Facing the determined Adam, who looked at her with those pure eyes with an equally innocent face. He smiled softly, making Elara feel nervous and gentle.
"Oh, Johnny, what shall I do with you..." Elara sighed and smiled. "How can I say no to you when you think so much of me?"
Elara did not shake off her hand, and they walked together under the moonlight while their hands were interlocked. Adam felt the stares from the shadows on him and smirked secretly. He didn't have to worry about his safety since they were just wimps on the "F-" level.
They walked together, just alone (not including the cockroaches who were watching them). The atmosphere was romantic, making Elara feel comfortable and protected. She admired the confidence back and determination in his gaze.
She thought and remembered her husband: cynical, unattractive, irritable, and unfaithful. Although Elara wanted to control him, she also fought for his love, which she never received.
Her gaze grew softer and she leaned against Adam, who discreetly placed a protection spell on Elara's body along with a tracking spell. Adam wasn't sure she would be untouched, so he had to do such a thing.
Of course, from the outside, it looked as if Adam had just put his arm around her waist. Elara blushed slightly but kept her arrogant and proud look. Adam only smiled and shook his head.
An hour later they reached her house, and by then there was a kind of connection between their hearts. Adam smiled softly as Elara hugged him before saying goodbye.
"Johnny...are you free tomorrow night?" Elara asked hopefully.
Adam smiled softly and nodded, and then he walked over to Elara and whispered in her ear. "For you, I am always free, Elara".
Elara shuddered and smiled a happy smile. Adam said goodbye and left while Elara looked him over. In her thoughts, she thought. "He's so gentle and kind, but also resolute and courageous. He's rich, powerful, but not arrogant... and he's also handsome and has a terrifying charisma."
With a soft smile, Elara entered the house and felt joy. She found a man who was almost perfect for her requirements. She firmly clenched her hand in her fist and thought. "I must seduce him!"

In the shade of the trees, where no light was visible, there were five men. They were all dressed in knight's armor and had grim expressions on their faces. The reason was simple-the wife of their captain had gone on a date with another man. Simply put, she was cheating!
Each of them restrained himself from killing the man. But their intuition told them that it would be a foolish move, for the man's aura was terrifying and made them feel uncomfortable.
They looked around and their faces took on a strange expression. The reason was simple-they had to break the news to their captain. But the part about having to "report"... was, to put it mildly, unappealing.
For whoever reported this to Arannis would be subject to his wrath and become a trivial scapegoat. In the end, they came to a decision that only real men were capable of.
Rock-paper-scissors!
"Stone!"
"Scissors!"
"Stone!"
"Scissors! Hey, motherfucker, did you choose late on purpose? Let's do it again!"
Another twenty minutes passed. Finally, they picked out a young boy whose face was scrawny with reluctance. However, he had to take the balls in his fist and pour the energy into the magical talisman. Five minutes later, a stern voice rang out.
"Yes?"
The young elf flinched and, with nervousness in his voice, mumbled, "Sir...th-that..."
He began to stutter and could not articulate his speech properly. Arannis listened to him silently, and then barked: "Bastard, what the fuck are you muttering to yourself?! Do you think I have all the time in the world? If you don't explain yourself right now, I'll break every limb on your return and then break your jaw!"
The young elf trembled with fear and fell to his knees. Noticing his condition, one of the elders took pity on him and took the talisman in his hands. He sighed and spoke. "Sir, excuse Luke, he's just very nervous. Here's the problem...um...your wife was spotted with a strange man today."
There was silence. Arannis did not answer for a long time, but the elf who had taken over Luke's job trembled with fear. All he knew was that if Arannis was silent, it was not good.
And as expected...
"F**k! Then why the f**k are you sitting around doing nothing? Find that bastard and kill the hell out of him!" Arannis roared and the mascot even trembled. "Quickly find him and kill him. So I can see his head in my office when I return. Do you understand me?!"
"Y-yes, sir!"
"Then get f**k out!" Arannis barked loudly and ended the conversation. The talisman glowed and turned to ash.
The elves looked around and their gazes were full of dissatisfaction and fatigue. They sighed and felt very tired at the same time.
They had planned to kill that man to get back at Arannis, but he suddenly disappeared and they couldn't find him. So now they had to clutch their heads and try to figure out how to get out of the situation.
Soon they split up and began searching all over town for signs of Adam, but even when morning came, they found nothing. In the meantime, Adam was in his bedroom watching the two women, Mary and Claire, who were kneeling and in "cat-girl" cosplay.
