LIGHTNOVELSTORY Chapter 246: This… this was clearly a date!
A light blue dress, as pure and clear as the sky at dusk. Stay connected through empire
Flawless beauty, breathtakingly stunning.
It felt like no words could truly capture the kind of beauty that seemed to belong only in a painting.
At that moment, every Sea Serpent woman, led by Sylphina, was completely mesmerized.
Such a beautiful person—someone like this was unheard of, even among the many beauties of the Sea Serpent clan.
But beyond that heart-stopping beauty, there was something else.
They could all sense a faint, cold aura lingering in the air.
Though it seemed somewhat restrained, the aura carried a supreme authority that would make any race bow in reverence.
Just being near her made them feel a deep, instinctive fear and trembling from the bottom of their hearts.
Across the entire continent of Elant, there was likely no other woman who could exude such a cold, commanding presence—except for Goddess Sylvia.
Which meant…
Sylphina's gaze unintentionally shifted to Timothy, her eyes filled with shock she could barely conceal.
She had been wondering about Timothy's identity for a long time, but no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't figure it out.
But now, in an instant, everything clicked.
There were rumors that someone in the Sky Sanctuary had reached Ocean's Gate within a year and had even caught the special attention of Goddess Sylvia.
This person, who had saved countless members of her clan and wiped out the Beast King's forces, was actually Timothy from the Sky Sanctuary!
At this moment, every Sea Serpent in the Blooming Hall felt a deep sense of awe.
But there was one thing that sparked curiosity in all of them at the same time.
The Goddess Sylvia before them certainly had the cold, commanding presence described in the rumors—perhaps even more intimidating than the portraits they had seen before.
But for some reason, this goddess, who had remained aloof from the world for 60,000 years, with no scandals and almost no involvement in worldly affairs, was now walking side by side with Timothy.
And they were… standing very close!
"No way… How could the goddess and Timothy possibly…"
Several Sea Serpent women exchanged glances, their faces filled with disbelief.
"Honey, this is the Blooming Hall, where the Sea Serpent clan lives.
I've heard they're great singers and dancers. Want to hear a couple of songs?"
Timothy smiled at Sylvia beside him, casually reaching out and gently taking her smooth, delicate hand.
Sylvia didn't resist when Timothy reached for her hand.
Her soft hand was held in his, and she simply nodded, a hint of pride in her expression. "If you insist, I suppose I can listen."
"Then I'll have you listen to a few more songs, just to make up for that little misunderstanding." Timothy cleared his throat.
Though he had done nothing wrong, it was still a bit awkward to be so easily recognized by the madam of a brothel.
But holding Sylvia's cold, smooth hand, Timothy could tell she wasn't actually angry.
"Miss Sea Serpent, could you arrange a few performances for us?" Timothy smiled at Sylphina.
Then, still holding Sylvia's hand, the two of them walked up the stairs together, side by side, incredibly close.
They sat down at a quiet, secluded spot on the second floor.
Protected by a barrier that kept outsiders from entering, the Blooming Hall was peaceful, with only a few practitioners connected to the Sea Serpent clan present.
But as Timothy and Sylvia sat down, hand in hand, at a private table on the second floor, Sylphina and the other Sea Serpent women were completely stunned.
They were so close, and their movements were so intimate.
They were even holding hands.
This… this was clearly a date!
Love is a natural part of life, especially for humans, who are known for their deep emotions.
If it were anyone else, no matter how high their status, it wouldn't have caused such a stir.
But Sylphina knew very well—walking beside Timothy was none other than Goddess Sylvia herself, the flawless beauty who seemed like a celestial being straight out of a painting!
Her foolish clan members had been thinking about repaying Timothy with their "bodies," completely unaware that Timothy and Goddess Sylvia were already this close!
"My chance to repay him with my body is gone!"
"What happened to offering myself in gratitude? There's no chance now!"
Several Sea Serpent girls had tears in their eyes.
No matter how much they tried to convince themselves otherwise, the scene before them was far too clear.
The relationship between Timothy and the goddess went far beyond anything they could have imagined.
The goddess, who had always been seen as an untouchable ice queen, actually had an extraordinary connection with Timothy!
And what's more…
Even though this was beyond anything they could have expected, the Sea Serpent girls exchanged silent glances, none of them daring to speak.
They had witnessed the relationship between the goddess and Timothy with their own eyes, but they had never heard any rumors about it.
Which meant that, for most of the world, this was completely unknown.
If they accidentally let this slip…
Sylvia sat beside Timothy, her face still showing a hint of shy embarrassment.
But the aura she unconsciously emitted made every Sea Serpent feel a chill of fear deep in their hearts.
This was the power of the strongest human!
Even though the Sea Serpents had powerful bloodlines and physical strength far superior to humans, they couldn't suppress the inexplicable fear they felt in her presence.
"So… the goddess really just came to listen to some music?"
"What do you think?"
The Sea Serpent girls all looked up at the second floor.
They saw Timothy say something that made Sylvia cover her mouth and laugh.
That cold, distant face now had a soft, warm smile.
A smile that was like fire and ice coexisting, and it said everything about their relationship.
In the goddess's heart, Timothy had already become someone irreplaceable!
And honestly… this was just too sweet.
For these Sea Serpent women, who had been hiding among humans and had been single for who knows how many years, just watching Timothy and Sylvia interact from afar was enough to make their teeth ache from the sweetness. society was complicated and ever-changing, but some things never changed. Over the years, they had seen it all.
But something this sweet? They had never seen anything like it!
"Hurry up, stop wasting time, and get going."
At Sylphina's command, two Sea Serpent girls moved to the center of the first floor of the Blooming Hall.
One began to play the harp and sing, while the other danced to the music.
But as they glanced up at the second floor, where the scene was so sweet it could give you cavities, even their usually flawless performance seemed to carry a tinge of bitterness—like the melancholy of a single person watching a couple flaunt their love.
