Chapter 945 Suffering From His Karma
"Don't worry, I'll visit you from time to time," Aurora mumbled as she hugged her sister. "Now that you are no longer cursed, make sure to see the world a bit and experience the things you missed during those years of confinement, alright?"
As someone who had suffered the pain of loneliness, she didn't want her sister to go through the same thing and hoped that the latter would regain her freedom, doing the things she had never done in the past.
Naturally, she could have invited her to come with her to the Surface World, but she was sure that her father wouldn't agree.
'Also, she's still too young for Lux,' Aurora thought as she glanced at the Half-Elf who was leaning on the wall with his eyes closed.
When the two sisters were talking, Aurora told Princess Shayna all the things that Lux did for her. Also, while she was on the topic, she also told her sister about the "funny" thing that Lux did with his fiances.
This made Princess Shayna's face turn beet red, which confused Aurora.
As a daughter of the Royal Family who was meant to be the wife of someone who could help their Kingdom become more prosperous, she was educated in such matters and was more knowledgeable than Aurora.
Of course, this husband of hers was still undecided because, at least right now, King Septimius had no candidates in mind. There was also the fact that Princess Shayna was only twelve years old.
Her father didn't intend for her to marry until she was sixteen or older.
As to whom she would marry, they would need to go on a fishing trip with him first.
"Be careful up there sister," Princess Shayna said, while doing her best to hold back her tears. "Also, be careful of red-headed Half-Elves. Don't let him do that 'funny' thing to you anytime soon."
Aurora blinked once then twice before nodding her head.
"Eh? But according to Zane's and Zeke's description, it feels good," Aurora replied.
The two girls then glanced at the two Little Skeletons standing by their side, who seemed to be dead set on observing the tiled floor of the palace as if it were a work of art.
Princess Shayna then reluctantly pulled back before approaching the Half-Elf, who had his eyes closed.
Sensing that someone was glaring at him, he opened his eyes to look at the young princess, who would bloom into a beautiful flower a few years from now.
"If you make my sister cry, I'll make you pay for it," Princess Shayna stated.
Lux smiled. "That's unfair. Crying is a very normal thing to happen."
"You're not allowed to do anything funny to her!"
"…Are you talking about tickling her? Okay, I won't."
Princess Shayna's face became flushed because she was certain that Lux didn't understand what she was talking about.
Because of this, she glared at the Half-Elf again, making the latter chuckle.
"Father, I'll be leaving," Aurora said with a smile.
King Septimius nodded and rested his hands on her shoulder. "Remember this—if you need my help, you can count on me. I have already set the coordinates of the Teleportation Gate to Lux's Guild Headquarters in our family's Private Gate."
Aurora hugged her father one last time before walking towards her sister, who was still glaring daggers at the Half-Elf, who had no idea what was going on.
"Are you ready?" Lux asked.
"Yes," Aurora replied.
Lux extended his hand, and Aurora accepted it.
A few seconds later, both of them turned into particles of light and disappeared from the Kingdom of Agartha.

Heaven's Gate Guild Headquarters…
A gentle breeze washed over Aurora's body as soon as she materialized beside the Teleportation Gate.
She immediately noticed that she was standing on top of a mountain that overlooked what seemed to be a small town.
The sun was shining down on her, and it made her feel warm and alive.
She then closed her eyes in order to take everything in, taking deep breaths and allowing the fresh air to nourish her body.
Lux smiled while looking at the young beauty who had officially regained her freedom.
Truth be told, he intended to let Aurora meet Iris and Cai since the two of them were close to her age. He also hoped that the three of them would become good friends, allowing Aurora to have companions while he was away.
Suddenly, the Teleportation Gate glowed faintly, and three people stepped out of it.
Before Lux could even greet them, Valerie cried out and ran towards him.
Before the Half-Elf could even react, the "plain-looking girl" jumped into his arms, forcing Lux to catch her.
"Sir Lux! I missed you!" Valerie said as she hugged him tightly.
Ali and Ari, Valerie's handmaidens, sighed at the same time before looking at each other. They then walked towards Lux, and to his surprise, the two hugged him as well.
"Someone help, there is a sexual harasser here!" Ali said in a monotonous tone while hugging Lux tightly.
Ari giggled, as she too hugged Lux tightly. "The greater the misunderstanding, the more effective it is! Count me in!"
The Half-Elf blinked repeatedly because he had no idea what was happening. To his surprise, a fourth person hugged him from the back, leaving him no room to escape.
"This looks fun," Aurora commented. "I'm joining as well."
Lux, who was feeling several soft things pressing against his body, suddenly found himself unable to think properly.
His mind was completely blank, and because of this, those who were passing the Teleportation Gate like Garret, Cethus, Gerhart, and Emma, looked at him weirdly.
At that exact moment, the Teleportation Gate once again activated and two more people appeared beside it.
"…"
"…"
When Lux returned to the territories of the Crystal Palace, Lady Augustina immediately sensed his presence.
Coincidentally, she was with Aur at that time, so she shared the news. To her surprise, the Dragon Prince immediately headed to the Teleportation Gate in haste, making his Aunt shake her head helplessly.
Piccoro followed Aur as his bodyguard, and when the two of them stepped on the Teleportation Gate, the first thing they saw was Lux being hugged by four beautiful ladies.
Aur narrowed his gaze before walking toward the Half-Elf, who had an absent-minded look on his face.
Without any warning, Aur reached out to pull Lux's ear, making the latter cry out in pain.
Cethus, who was observing this scene, sighed before glancing at Gerhart.
"Want to grab something to eat?" Cethus asked.
Gerhart nodded and left with the Dragon Born.
Garret and Emma did the same, leaving their pitiful Guildmaster suffering from a karma that he wasn't aware of.
Lady Augustina, who was watching this scene from the castle, chuckled before taking a sip of her tea.
"It seems that his future will have nothing but trouble," Lady Augustina said as an understanding smile played over her lips. "Well, to each their own."
