Chapter 2266 The Dance of Deception

The sight of Gautier made Aora and Gwain furrow their brows.

It wasn’t that his skill was particularly formidable. Rather, they were all too familiar with his energy flow. His inner strength stemmed from the same lineage as theirs, yet his mastery seemed even purer.

“Mr. Gwain, Aora.”

Gautier clasped his hands toward them with a smile. “Both of you stand unmatched in martial arts. Now that you’ve joined our assembly, one of you will take down Emmanuel tomorrow, and the other will eliminate Yorick. You’ll be hailed as national heroes. What could be more glorious?”

“Hmph! Even if you hadn’t said a word, I would have killed Emmanuel to avenge the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce!”

Aora gritted her teeth. “I’ll handle Emmanuel. As for Yorick and all that patriotic nonsense, none of it concerns me.”

“That’s excellent!”

Gautier beamed. “With a warrior of your caliber in our alliance, our chances of victory have only grown stronger. And what about you, Mr. Gwain?”

Gwain let out a cold snort. “What grand hunt? All I see is a pack of misfits and fools running wild. If I want someone dead, why would I need the help of a bunch of nobodies like you?”

The remark instantly ignited fury among nearly everyone present.

He was even more ruthless than the martial arts masters of old legends.

Gautier’s expression tensed, but he forced a flattering smile. “Of course, we all know your prowess is unrivaled. You’ve always stood shoulder to shoulder with the Northern Wolf Warrior, and everyone has high expectations for you. No one is more suited to carrying the banner of the nation’s martial peak.

Just as he was about to persuade Gwain to target Yorick, a melody drifted down from higher up the mountain.

The hauntingly beautiful strains of music pulled everyone’s attention upward, disrupting Gautier’s

momentum.

A grand wooden pavilion stood perched on the mountainside, an exquisite structure that seemed to float above the cliff

of Divine Mountain. Recently built, it was a marvel of craftsmanship, as though an ethereal sanctuary had taken shape in midair.

To ordinary onlookers, it was a mystery. But those in the know understood that Isabella had constructed it. And as for her

Chiara followed their gaze, then scoffed.

It was Yuna.

Tonight, she was dressed in a way that left little to the imagination. A sheer silk gown draped over her frame, whispering against her skin with every movement. The color of her undergarments was one thing, but she had also left her pale, slender waist and navel bare. She exuded an intoxicating blend of elegance and allure -what man wouldn’t be captivated?

Though Nathan had ridiculed her, claiming she no longer deserved to be counted among the Four Beauties, the one who felt the most threatened wasn’t Yuna herself. It was Chiara–the only one among them who was already married.

“It’s Miss Yuna!”
