Zeke found their antics a little amusing and laughed secretly at one corner.
Severin looked speechless. Facing a woman as unreasonable as Felicia was headache-inducing. In the end, he could only nod and give in. "Fine. You can tag along if you want. I'm just worried about your safety because you and Megan don't have any attainment."
At that moment, Lillie stood up all of a sudden. She raised her hand and said, "Sir, why don't you let two of us come with you? That way, you won't have to worry about their safety anymore. We'll be there to protect them whenever you're not around."
Wendy stood up as well. "That's right! I'm sure we're strong enough to protect them."
Severin frowned and pointed out, "But the invitation only allows a maximum of five people."
"Well," Wendy smiled. "We won't join you at the banquet. We'll just protect Miss Megan and Madam Felicia when they're not attending the banquet."
"That's a good idea! They'll have no problem protecting us because their attainment is high enough!" Megan nodded in agreement.
Severin smiled and said, "Sure. Wendy and Lillie can come along. The other four will have to stay here and protect South County Mansion."
