"He asked if I am free as he needs to inform me of something."
"Must be something interesting if he is messaging you so soon after just seeing you in person." Elrinira noted.
"And also because you will see him again later, go ahead and see what he needs to inform you off." Fire Empress added.
[Silver Oracle Nodded before replying.]
[Silver Oracle: Yes, I'm free, what's wrong.]
[Vincarna: Natures Guardian sent some of his followers to teach me a lesson.]
[Silver Oracle: He did?]
[Vincarna: Yes, but that's not the interesting part, the interesting part is that apparently, he rewards his lower-level female members by making out with them for five minutes while he gropes their breasts, who knows how he rewards his higher-level members.]
Silver Oracle stared blankly at the message before her face turned to one of disgust before she hissed loud enough that the other women heard.
"Disgraceful bastard, he dares pursue me and make all those promises using flowery words when he actually does that."
"Even If I have no interest in him, it is still disgraceful and conceited that he thinks I would not find out."
"What happened?" Elrinira asked with interest.
Silver Oracle Sighed before saying.
"One moment please Elrinira"
She then replied to Vincarna.
[Silver Oracle: I see, that's some revealing information you just gave me thank you, do you need any assistance with the group he sent to teach you a lesson?]
[Vincarna: No don't worry, they only level 13 to 15 they don't stand a chance.]
[Silver Oracle: That's almost ten levels higher than you.]
[Vincarna: I am aware, but my stats are still greater.]
[Silver Oracle: My god your brokenly OP.]
[Vincarna: Haha thank you very much, sorry to interrupt your girl talk, I will let you get back to it.]
[Silver Oracle: One thing before you go, I need to speak with you about something later, message me when you get off Genesis ok?]
[Vincarna: Sure, talk later.]
Silver Oracle closed her eyes before taking a breath to calm her anger before she opened them again and spoke.
"Elrinira have you ever heard of a person called Natures Guardian?"
After she spoke that name the three human beauties showed knowing looks.
"Hmm the name does not ring a bell." Elrinira replied.
"How about Protector of Nature?" Silver Oracle asked.
"Now that name I have heard of, he is a member of the elf council is he not?"
"Correct, Natures Guardian is the son of Protector of Nature."
"Ah, well if the apple didn't fall far from the tree, then this Natures Guardian is going to cause you trouble, like how I have heard his father causes your mother trouble." Elrinira said.
Silver Oracle sighed before saying.
"He already does, just a different type of trouble, while his father constantly stands against my mother on all things political, Natures Guardian is one of those we spoke about earlier, one of those who wants me for what I am, not who I am."
Elrinira showed a knowing look before saying.
"Ah I see, so what happened?"
"Earlier in the day before we met you, I was showing Vincarna around Thamethalas, it would seem that Natures Guardian was informed about this, most likely one of his followers and so he came to greet me."
"He tried to separate me from Vincarna by inviting me to run a dungeon with him and advised that I should not waste my time on someone so weak while he did not even bother greeting or sparing a glance at Vincarna."
"Anyway, after I refused his offer, it would seem he did not like the idea of Vincarna being around me because he has sent some of his followers to teach Vincarna a lesson."
None of the women looked surprised to hear this, after all they had all met and even been pursued by men like that.
"So, was that all Vincarna had to say? Elrinira asked though she suspected it wasn't.
She already knew the type of man Vincarna was, and he would not consider such a matter worth interrupting a friend over.
"No, he informed me that apparently even though Natures Guardian actively pursues me as a marriage partner, he is rewarding his female members in inappropriate ways."
All the women frowned when they heard this before Fire Empress asked.
"What sort of inappropriate ways?"
"Apparently he rewards them by kissing them for five minutes straight while groping their breasts."
"Despicable Bastard." Fire Empress swore as Flame Servant and Madam Death nodded in agreement.
Elrinira was not surprised at this as she had seen similar things in the past so instead, she asked.
"Anything else?"
"Although it is not certain Vincarna wondered how Natures Guardian might reward his higher-level female members."
"I see." Elrinira said before going into thought about this matter while Fire Empress said.
"I am sorry you had to learn about this Alea, even if you had no interest in the man, it is still not something nice to hear."
"Still, it is better you know the truth sooner rather than later."
Silver Oracle nodded in response.
"What do you plan to do about this?" Elrinira asked after thinking for a moment.
"There is not much I can do, I will still keep the distance I have always kept with Natures Guardian, but now I will react colder to him than before."
Fire Empress nodded in response, agreeing with Silver Oracles' decision as it was the best from a political standpoint.
"That is a good choice to make from a political standpoint, however there is another option you could take but it will require several things." Elrinira stated.
"What other option is there and what things?" Silver Oracle asked as all the women showed interested looks.
"You could fight fire with fire." Elrinira proclaimed with a provocative smile.
"Excuse me?" Silver Oracle asked confused.
"Well not quite literally, your relationship with Vincarna has not reached the stage yet where you're comfortable kissing for long periods of time while letting him touch your body after all." Elrinira stated as Silver Oracle blushed, and the other women looked at her with surprise.
"What's this? Alea, do you have a thing for that boy?" Flame Empress asked.
"Oh, it's more than a thing, empress your dear niece is in love with Vincarna."
"What!" The three women said together while Silver Oracle blushed even redder and shouted.
"ELRINIRA"
Elrinira just laughed before saying.
"Calm yourself princess, this is something they will learn in the future anyway, if my plan comes to be."
"If your plan comes to be you say, but they don't even know your plan."
"Not yet they don't, but I plan to inform them after we finish this topic."
"Alea is this true, you're actually interested in a man? Does your mother know?" Flame Empress asked surprised, after all, almost everyone in the whole world knew that the Elf Princess Alea Kaegwyn never showed any romantic interest in anyone, even with so many suitors.
Silver Oracle sighed before saying.
"Yes, it's true and no she does not, before today nobody knew, I regret telling the Queen Big Mouth Succubus over here now."
"If you want to see a big mouth..." Elrinira started but was interrupted by Silver Oracle.
"STOP"
"I know what you're going to say and save it, that's a topic for another time, now tell me of this idea of yours."
"Oh ho, see you can become a good Queen for Vincarna in the future, you just proved you know when to put your foot down princess." Elrinira said with a happy approving smile before she said.
"Very well my idea is to use the banquet that you're all attending and which I am sure this Natures Guardian will attend to make him jealous."
"How?" They all asked.
"Simple, this is where you need three things, first your mother's permission to do this as it is risky from a political standpoint."
"Second, Vincarna's permission because he will be the key to all of this and it will put a target on his back, not only from Natures Guardian but from every suitor you have."
"Third, the help of either Ice Blue Queen or Red Rose, or if possible, both of them would be best."
"Getting the help of my niece and daughter won't be a problem because all three of them are very close." Fire Empress stated.
"As long as I explain to my mother what your plan is and how it can help me, I believe she would agree, though you still have to tell me the plan."
"All in good time, what about Vincarna's help?"
"That one I can't say, he has never even attended a formal gathering or socialized with upper society." Silver Oracle said before adding.
"I am unsure if he will even agree to attend."
Elrinira thought for a moment before confidently saying.
"He will trust me."
"Why are you so sure?" Silver Oracle asked.
"Remember when I told you about my instincts regarding him?"
Silver Oracle nodded in response.
"Well, if you explain my plan to him later when you ask him about the banquet and ask for his help, he will not refuse you."
"I am not sure I want to force his hand; I don't want him to think I am only using him." Silver Oracle said with doubt.
"Then tell him that, the best thing you can do to win Vincarna is just be honest with him, always completely honest, the worst thing you can do is lie."
Silver Oracle nodded and went into thought.
"Well, the choice is yours in the end, anyway, here is my plan, make sure to only inform those people who we need to be involved so that it remains a secret till the event." Elrinira stated before telling the other woman her plan.
