Kapitel 131: Chapter 131: System's Temptation

Ember, sensing Elio's discomfort, straightened up, its scales shimmering with a more intense tone. The salamander's protective instincts were clearly kicking in.

The second woman, a brunette with legs that seemed to go on forever, stepped so close she was almost brushing against Elio. Her scent, sweet and intoxicating, filled the air around them.

"You're so modest. A true hero," she cooed, her eyes never leaving Elio's face.
