Chapter 4:

But at this moment, he could still smell the sweet fragrance emanating from the woman before him. The scent lingered in his palm, refusing to dissipate.

While he was still dazed, Felicia dropped a bag onto the ground and flew over the palace wall. Although he caught her as she was falling, she remained motionless. She was genuinely embarrassed this time as she fell face-first into a muddy puddle.

Felicia felt a surge of anger. That shameless person! He must have done it on purpose! Did I directly say he was old? Can't he accept the harsh truth and seek revenge on me?! She silently cursed him for half a day, gnashing her teeth as she uttered each word, "ALPHA JAYCE!"

Alpha Jayce turned his head away, feeling somewhat embarrassed as he said, "I have reported to the deities, and the divine parents will quickly welcome you to the temporary residence in the Crimson Rock pack. It's also an opportunity for you to learn some heavenly rituals. It's also to prepare you well for becoming a Luna."

"Who wants to go to the Crimson Rock pack with you? Are you insane?" Felicia struggled, but her entire body remained immobile, so she could only speak. She tried using her supernatural powers from the Faerie Realm several times, but she couldn't undo Alpha Jayce's detestable Binding Ceremony.

Although rigid and inflexible, this older man had a solid foundation in magic! It was not in vain that he had lived for two thousand seven hundred years!

"Aren't you going to release me?" She lay flat on the ground, and her face stuck in the mud; with every word she spoke, she would crawl into her mouth.

Alpha Jayce lightly flicked his finger, and the magic on her body was instantly dispelled. Felicia rose from the sandy ground. After clearing her mouth, she turned around and said, "What do you want in the end? Well, forget it. I'll tell you the truth. I am..." She was about to reveal her true identity when suddenly a voice shouted from inside the palace wall, "Who's there?!"

Felicia turned and ran away. The entire palace guard of the Rainbow Palace was alarmed, and torches were lit, creating a blinding light. If she didn't run now, when would she?! Alpha Jayce didn't stop Felicia from fleeing. He understood the consequences of being discovered together with a woman like this... it was not surprising that suspicion would arise.

However, this future Luna was utterly different from what he had imagined, making it impossible to ignore her. He treaded on the Wind and quickly caught up with her, saying, "It's late at night, and a woman like you is wandering alone outside. What are you trying to achieve?"

"In your past life, were you a monk chanting sutras daily? Why do you talk so much!" Felicia looked at him with one eye, no longer wanting to pay attention to him. Indeed, he was both conservative and stubborn, a perfect match for my sister.

She quickly moved ahead, and Alpha Jayce followed closely behind. In the mortal world, the sea of flowers blossomed in April, and a faint fragrance filled the air. Felicia hurriedly walked along the road, and petals fell, gently brushing against her clothes with the Wind. Alpha Jayce frowned, suddenly realizing she was using the Black Rainbow pack's Wind Riding magic, which was gentle and fast. She was born in the mortal world, so how did she know the Black Rainbow pack's magic?

What exactly did the Blue Moon pack teach her?!

Felicia naturally didn't care about what this older man thought of her. She increased her speed, walking ahead quickly, soon leaving the boundaries of the Blue Moon pack. A black gate gradually appeared in front of them. The words "Actaman City" were quite prominent in the darkness, emitting a cold and eerie light.

Actaman City.

Alpha Jayce briefly pondered. Actaman City was where good and bad intertwined, a junction of the four packs: Red Stone, Blue Moon, Red River, and Black Rainbow.

Because there was no governing authority, there were no laws or regulations here. And without laws, naturally, there would be hidden darkness and dirtiness, but there were also not a few rare and peculiar treasures. Alpha Jayce couldn't remember exactly when was the last time he had been here.

The towering city walls were deep, and bright torches illuminated both sides. The blended light of yellow and dark red cast shadows on the black gate of Actaman City. It looked like the head of a giant monster, its mouth filled with fresh blood.

Felicia was not unfamiliar with this place and walked directly through the city gate. Without guards, naturally, no toll was required to enter. At the same time, this also proved that the inside of the city was undoubtedly dangerous.

As she walked, Felicia looked around in all directions. After a while, she finally stopped by the roadside, where someone was laying a piece of black cloth on the ground, selling a bamboo flute.

The bamboo flute was smooth and translucent, shining like a precious gem. Alpha Jayce just glanced at it and knew it was made of bone. Most items chosen for trade and exchange in Actaman City had mysterious origins. Naturally, their prices were quite extravagant.

As expected, the shopkeeper said, "This flute is called the Great Thunderous Bone Flute. It will cost fifteen thousand gold coins or eight thousand demon coins if you want to buy it. Don't touch it if you don't want to buy it."

Felicia held the bone flute and examined it for a while before turning around and saying, "I'll buy this."

Alpha Jayce couldn't help but speak lowly, "You're a princess, and yet you easily give money to a stranger. Did the Blue Moon pack teach you that?"

This older man was not only rigid but also stingy... Felicia stroked the bone flute in her hand and liked it. She tried to suppress the desire to shout at him and said, "Considering our current relationship, you can't be considered a stranger, right?" Of course not; if you marry my sister, you'll be considered my brother-in-law.

Alpha Jayce thought for a moment and realized that was true. If she were his future Luna, it wouldn't hurt to give her a gift. However... He said, "The Red Stone pack does not allow personal wealth accumulation in the mortal realm."

Felicia gasped and stared at him, taking half a day to say, "In other words... You don't have money?"

Alpha Jayce avoided her gaze by looking down, eyes on the nose, nose on the mind: "Yes."

Oh my goodness! Old, poor, long-winded, and incredibly... bland. Felicia sighed, placing the bone flute back down. After silence, she finally blurted out, "Oh my god."

What does that expression of yours mean?! Alpha Jayce experienced the taste of embarrassment for the first time in his life, realizing he didn't have a single coin in his pocket.

Felicia continued to walk forward without looking left or right. If there was no money, what was there to look at? She couldn't buy anything anyway.

Alpha Jayce still followed behind her; in reality, he didn't lack personal wealth.

Because of his special status, all his assets in the three realms were specially managed by a divine official to avoid disturbing the balance of power. He had to go through a complicated process whenever he needed to use them.

However, it was better to leave these matters simple.

Whatever he wanted to think, Felicia didn't care. She walked straight to an interesting structure—a star-gazing tower.

This tower was the most special place in the area, where only women were allowed to ascend. Currently, it is the most crowded place in Actaman City. No one was competing on the tower, but many people were waiting in the stands.

"Miss, I thought you were too cowardly to come and compete!"

A woman stood on the tower, and when she saw Felicia approaching, she sneered. Alpha Jayce furrowed his brows slightly. She wore a red outfit with a low neckline, revealing a fair, snow-white neck. Her arms were adorned with long, thin white silk, and she wore dazzling golden jewelry. Combined with her seductive and charming demeanor, she was irresistible.

Felicia turned around to tease Alpha Jayce, "So, is she beautiful?" Alpha Jayce furrowed his brows without answering. Felicia continued, "Why aren't you saying anything? Aren't men supposed to like this type?"
