The Legendary Mage (Alavin) novel Chapter 180

"What?"

"My friend in the Organization. I'll introduce you to her and help bring you together. How about that?" Lylian's eyes twinkled.

"You're selling out your friend just like that?"

"Don't put it so crudely. I'm just the matchmaker; the rest is up to you."

"And if it doesn't work out, wouldn't I be at a loss?"

"Believe in yourself. You actually have some merits. You may not be the best looking, but you've got a strong build. You might not be likable, but you're talented. You might have a dark heart, but you're tough. You might be violent, but you can protect when it counts. You're... well, you have your good points. I think my mentor sister will like your type. To use her words from the tournament, you are 'A true warrior!'"

"Are you complimenting me?" Alavin was at a loss for words.

Balder and Cedrick shook their heads; the girl sure was bold. Teasing her, Balder said, "Miss Lylian, what about me? Could you introduce me to a friend , too?"

"You? No way. My friend s are delicate flowers; you might crush them."

Alavin couldn't hold back his laughter.

Balder scratched his head awkwardly. He was indeed heavyset, but not that heavy.

"Come on, tell me your secret first," Lylian pressed, genuinely curious. If she could get her hands on it, it would be like possessing a life-saving skill.

"Go back to where you came from. I'm not telling."

"Come on, how about I introduce you to a couple of friends? Three if you're lucky."

At that moment, a bevy of beautiful maidens arrived in the corridor, fluttering like a group of enchanting songbirds. They soon found Lylian in Alavin's chambers. "What are you doing here? We've been looking for you."
