Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!-Chapter 350 - 344: A Harsh "Lesson

As Roland burst into tears, the other girls started crying along with her.

Josh crouched down with concern, looking at them with sincerity in his eyes: "Are you all okay? How did you all end up pulling each other down like this? Good thing I had five strands of Spider Silk to rescue you all."

The girls were stunned and stopped crying, staring at Josh in disbelief.

How could she shamelessly say such a thing?

Lying in broad daylight?

Josh felt a bit embarrassed by their unblinking stare and laughed awkwardly: "Even though I saved your lives, there’s really no need to thank me, it was just a small effort."

Catherine almost lost her composure.

Facing Lu Yangzhang’s warning look, Catherine struggled to hold back her laughter and quickly cleared her throat: "So that’s what happened, you see, you all were really careless. Why did you play by the pond? It’s so dangerous. Luckily Josh was here today to save you, otherwise, no servants usually come to this pond, and no one would have known if you drowned!"

With the matter virtually confirmed and no evidence to refute it, the girls could only swallow their anger and nod indignantly.

Catherine kindly smiled: "Do you regret it now? You should thank Josh; she saved your life~."

The girls were boiling with anger, but they had no choice but to reluctantly thank her: "Thank you, Josh."

Josh nodded with a smile: "You’re welcome~."

A bunch of little chicks, if they think they can play with me, they’d better live for another three or five hundred years first.

Catherine then had someone take the girls to the guest room to change clothes, while she dragged Josh to the dining room: "After a busy morning, you haven’t had breakfast yet, right? Come on, let’s go."

She actually left Josh with those people on purpose.

To see Josh’s adaptability.

Since she was someone Yuze identified with and paired bound with a Spiritual Body relationship, whether they marry or not, these social settings are unavoidable as long as they stay with Yuze.

If she had a timid or meek personality, she wouldn’t stand a chance.

But fortunately, Josh didn’t disappoint her.

After she finished breakfast, Yuze still hadn’t come back.

She felt a bit uneasy, uncertain if last night’s events had caused Yuze significant trouble.

She looked at Catherine: "Madam..."

Catherine glared at her reproachfully: "Call me Sister! Did you forget?"

Josh had to correct herself: "Sister, why hasn’t Yuze come back yet?"

She felt a bit guilty.

Catherine smiled and patted her hand reassuringly: "Don’t worry, he’s quite resilient."

Only then did Josh nod.

But Yuze didn’t return for the rest of the day.

Josh didn’t have much to do alone, so she decided to take the opportunity to train hard, politely declining Catherine’s invitation to go out and locking herself in the room to train intensively for a day.

In the evening, there was a banquet at the manor.

Originally, Josh didn’t want to attend such a banquet, but she couldn’t refuse Catherine’s invitation.

As Yuze hadn’t returned, Catherine was worried she’d overthink and wallow in her room, so she insisted on dragging her out to have fun.

Josh had no choice but to join Catherine at the banquet.

The banquet was attended by well-known nobles, and since Josh agreed to attend, she couldn’t appear too shabby, so she let Catherine dress her up, making her walk out in high heels.

But Catherine was also worried she might be nervous, so she said: "Just have fun at the banquet hall, don’t worry about offending anyone, I’ll back you up. Try whatever you see that’s good to eat or play with, I have only one request."

Josh obediently looked at her.

Catherine: "Before 9 o’clock at night, you’re not allowed to return to your room!"

Josh couldn’t help but laugh: "Alright..."

After instructing her, Catherine finally went into the venue.

Josh followed closely behind.

Catherine led Josh among the crowd and said with a smile: "Let me introduce you to everyone, my little guest, Josh."

Everyone quickly nodded and smiled.

"So beautiful, like a doll~."

"She’s so adorable, when did the Duke have such a cute little guest? Only now are you sharing her with us!"

Compliments flooded from all directions, leaving Josh to respond with a professional fake smile.

As the banquet began, Catherine had many people to attend to, so she told Josh to explore, and she turned to socialize.

Everyone at the banquet appeared friendly, elegant, dignified, and enthusiastic.

But Josh could still feel hidden gazes lurking in the dark.

Roland and Mara were hiding and staring at her with anger in their eyes.

Mara said resentfully: "Every year, Aunt always enters the venue with us, but this year she brought her!"

Roland was gritting her teeth, glaring at the distant figure: "We must teach her a lesson and show her whose turf this is!"

Mara’s eyes gleamed: "I have an idea! Several young ladies are coming tonight, they have far superior statuses. Based on our relationship, if we just ask, they’re sure to help us deal with this country bumpkin!"

Roland’s expression finally improved: "You mean..."

A vicious smile flickered in Mara’s eyes: "Exactly!"

Josh was wandering around idly when she turned and saw Roland approaching: "Josh~ you must be bored alone, huh?"

"Uh-huh," Josh responded lazily, not even glancing at her, already sensing the malice in her tone.

These siblings are really...

Naively stupid, having been dealt with before, yet daring to approach her again, they’re truly fearless.

But their tactics are just too childish, making Josh feel like she’s outsmarting kids in kindergarten.

Roland linked her arm with Josh’s: "Let’s go play in the back garden! It’s so crowded here that it’s not fun at all, full of adult socializing, the young gentlemen are all in the back garden!"

She thought that just by mentioning "the young gentlemen are all in the back garden," no girl could resist.

After all, most people come to social gatherings to mingle with peers and flaunt their allure.

Josh raised her eyebrows: "Sure."

She was genuinely bored.

Roland brightened up and led her towards the back garden.

However, the back garden wasn’t lively as she described; it was rather deserted with hardly anyone around, and even the streetlights were sparse.

Roland quickly explained: "Just past this shaded path~."

Josh acted as if she didn’t notice her intentions or the small trap hidden in the bushes, following her straight into their trap.

Soon, three other girls appeared, wearing masks.

Roland had disappeared at some point, while the three surrounded her.

Josh smirked slightly, watching their Spiritual Body release, they really intended to give her a "big lesson."

A masked Mara revealed a smug look: "Josh, you’d better surrender now. If so, we might consider going easy on you!"
