A beautiful golden haired woman, with long, wavy hair and a doll-like face, walked deeper into a massive construct towards the central area of the complex.
Her lovable looks and skin as white as snow and the bounciness of her ample breasts made her truly stand out from the people that she was passing by.

That Hag from Whitewood’s Castle is clearly trying to provoke him again, with the challeging looks she was throwing towards him.
Siley may be a hothead, but one doesn’t become a Rank 2 magus or leader of a whole academy by being an idiot. There was no way he would react to her provocation.
She would pay one day.
