“Kent, hurry up. The new girl poisoned Sophia and Lucy.” Amelia shouted in a weeping tone.
Kent felt his head tingle as he didn’t understand how the three ended up in such a situation. He observed the condition of three girls for a second. Thankfully, their condition didn’t worsen.
Maya, the princess of the poison clan, only felt unconscious due to some type of knocking powder. But Sophia and Lucy were poisoned. After a careful look, he found that the poison is very mild and isn’t the type to kill people.
“It seems the poison is the body protection of Maya. These two busy ladies definitely tried to check on Maya without her permission.” Kent muttered while taking out a golden needle from his storage bracelet.
He first helped Maya wake from her unconsciousness. Maya directly lifted her hand to attack, thinking that she was still surrounded by strange ladies.
“Hey, it’s me. Calm down.” Kent held her wrist and spoke in a calm tone.
“Kent…” Maya’s eyes went wide open as she called out his name and directly hugged him to the side. Tears began rolling down her cheeks.
“It’s okey. Everything is alright. Don’t worry, you are fine now.” Hugging her dearly, Kent consoled her in a concerned tone.
“You two, stop your romance and save them first.” Amelia, who felt frustrated by the scene before her, cried out in a loud tone.
Kent smiled awkwardly and pulled Maya back from his embrace. “Maya, give them antidotes.”
“But they tried to attack me with some kind of powder. Not only that, they even searched by body; that’s why they fell like that.” Maya spoke in a complaining tone.
“Please don’t mind them. They just did that for my safety. Please give antidotes to them. Next time, it won’t happen.” Kent replied while holding her hands dearly.
Maya nodded her head and took out small veils from her storage ring. After a short delay, both Sophia and Lucy woke from their slumber.
“What happened?!” Sophia uttered in a weak tone while rubbing her eyes.
But she didn’t receive any reply. Kent continued to stare at her with a serious look. Lucy, who saw Kent’s look, put her head down and didn’t utter a single word.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Sophia, who saw Maya standing beside Kent, exchanged an unwilling look and questioned Kent in a pampered tone.
“Is this how you treat my guests? If I hadn’t come here in time, you might have lost your life.” Kent spoke with a serious look.
“You shouldn’t blame me for this. She came here in the middle of the night and appeared very suspicious. She didn’t even say her name when asked. I just want to confirm her identity. Also, you should ask that witch why she applied poison to her body.” Sophia retorted in a loud tone without giving Kent any chance to blame this on her.
“Who asked you to touch my body?” Maya smirked with a proud face and turned her head away with a nonchalant look.
“Look at how she is talking. Kent, throw this dark witch outside. I can’t bear to see her face for one more second.” Sophia cursed angrily with her finger pointed at Maya.
[Dark witches are the ones who work in happy houses. It has other meaning as BITCH in this world. The Semen family has the license to raise dark witches in Silver Leaf Town.]
“Mind your tongue. Who are you calling the Dark Witch? Your entire Chen family is full of dark witches. If you speak one more word, I will pour a scorching liquid on your face.” Maya, who got enraged by the word dark witches, cursed back loudly while moving against Sophia.
“You…!” Sophia hurriedly stood up and pounced on Maya with her fists. Kent, who held his forehead in a headache, hurriedly stood up to stop the fight. Lucy also joined with Sophia to control Maya. Amelia is calling on the ladies to stop. But her weak tone got mixed up in the fight.
While Sophia pulled the long hair of Maya in anger, Maya held Sophia’s other hand and held onto her throat. Lucy is trying her best to pull Maya away by holding her waist.
Kent, who stood in the middle with a frustrated face, tried to calm them down. But they were not in a state to listen to his command. Sighing heavily, Kent stretched his hands and placed both his palms on the foreheads of Maya and Sophia.
“Stop…” He shouted loudly and pushed both his hands.
Kent felt like he is stopping two bulls who were going to bang their heads. Sophia is still stretching her hands to grab Maya’s hair.
But Kent hurriedly hugged Maya and dragged her away from the clutches of two ladies. He directly jumped outside the room and closed the room door behind him. Sophia continued to bang on the room door with fierce roars.
While hugging Maya, Kent leaned his back against the door and released a heavy breath while staring at the roof.
“I’m sorry…” Maya spoke in a weak tone while staring at Kent from a close distance. She didn’t try to get away from his embrace.
“Why did you come here? Don’t you know what place this is? If anyone finds out your identity, the consequences will be severe. At least you should have contacted me before coming here.” Kent spoke in a concerned tone while looking into her eyes.

“I tried. But you didn’t respond.” Maya spoke in a depressed tone while lowering her head in self-blame.
While Kent and Mya were speaking in whispering tones, Sophia planted her ear to the door and tried to listen to what they were talking about. But she couldn’t hear a single word.
With a disappointed look, she walked back to the bed, where Amelia and Lucy were staring at her with giggling faces.
“Stop laughing. I really hate that witch. Also, I’m saying it now. In whatever case, we are not accepting that witch into our group and won’t approve of Kent having any type of relationship with her. Is that clear?” Sophia asked with a serious look.
Both Lucy and Amelia exchanged a look and nodded their heads like chickens.
