- Chapter 131 Is This a Dream…..? (2) "Gravity Element." Tremendous Magic Power erupted outward. Black particles scattered from the tips of Jurgen’s fingers. Lighter and finer than dust, yet countless in number. Sensing the danger, Gilbert swiftly stepped back. But as swift as they had appeared—the black particles vanished without a trace. Gilbert, who had braced himself to the hilt, tilted his head. Unlike Penelope, Gilbert was no die-hard fan of Hanbin's, and so he did not know. That Material…

- Chapter 130 This is a Dream……? There were even more Hungry Ghosts on the first floor. It seemed that when Penelope severed one of the three staircases, the number lingering below had increased. It was a moment that lent further weight to the hypothesis that the Hell Gate lay on the lower floor. Even so, the three of them divided their roles perfectly. Grrrgh? Three Hungry Ghosts prowling near the fruit basket by the reception room. ——Fasht! A long, thin thread of wind fed by Penelope…

- Chapter 128 An Uninvited Guest in the Dead of Night Jurgen leaned comfortably back against the sofa and watched the two young ladies chatter. The gossip about Clarisse had, before he knew it, extended into all manner of personal stories. "Have you been to Soltera?" "Ahahaha! Of course. I spend most of my time at the Del Alba Resort in Costa Bay." "Don't go there." "Pardon? Why?" "They're in bed with the Mafia and sell off their guests." "……Is that true?"

- Chapter 127 No Banquet Is Complete Without a Young Lady (6) Before Gilbert Thornton was yet Viscount Gilbert Thornton. Gilbert had always been tormented by anxiety. 'Is this truly the limit of your ability? A pathetic wretch who can't even match his own younger brother.' 'Your mother must be lamenting from the afterlife.'

- Chapter 126 No Banquet Is Complete Without a Young Lady (4) Y&P's first secret weapon, unveiled for the very first time. The Ribs Full Spread had received nothing but glowing praise. So much so that even the charity auction, which had been the evening's main event, was pushed to an afterthought. The crowd that swarmed around Penelope after dinner made that perfectly clear.

- Chapter 125 Chapter 125. No Banquet Is Complete Without a Young Lady (3) Just as small fish gather at the bottom of a fish farm, shady proposals from businessmen accumulate around any enterprise that smells of money. "I'd like to make you an attractive offer……" "It's a bit sensitive for others to hear——shall we move somewhere quieter?" Even after Derek's audacious Tax Haven consulting pitch, quite a few people sought Penelope out in private. It was Jurgen who received them graciously. What…

And in a magnificent mansion, a magnificent Terrace was only to be expected. "Haaa." Only after stepping out onto the Terrace and meeting the cool night air did Penelope let out the breath she had been holding. "Is it very hard?" "I'm not sure."

Before the full force of winter descended, it was an event where the Northern social circles gathered in one place to collect donations to be delivered to those in need.
