Lina, Rosa, and Terra looked at each other. They secretly discussed the plan between them and after a few minutes, they came to a conclusion.

"Madam Anda, we agree with your suggestion. Please take care of us during this time." Lina politely said their decision.

"Hehe. You don't have to be so polite. We ladies have to take care of one another. There are too many evil men out there. Thankfully, I was blessed with the best man in the world. Ladies, if have trouble finding a good man in the future, my husband is available." Anda started her usual advertisement.

"You see that, ladies? Be careful not to fall for her trick. She already tricked so many girls into the family using this technique." Leyvi chimed in.

Anda stomped her leg. "Hus...band! Stop interrupting my recruitment procedure!" She turned to the three ladies quickly. "Sisters, don't listen to him. He is just afraid that he will lose in the night battle."

"See! I knew it. That's the reason why you wanted to recruit them so much! Hahaha! I exposed you!"

Lina, Rosa, and Terra were speechless throughout the comedy skit, but they could see that Leyvi and Anda had the best relationship out of any couple they had encountered so far.

After Leyvi and the group returned to the Mercenary City, they parted ways with the three ladies temporarily. The feeling of being watched immediately vanished, making him suspect that someone was monitoring the three ladies, not him. The mystery that remained was whether the person monitoring had bad intentions or not.

Leyvi also received a message from Sawi. She requested to meet him.

Leyvi then replied to her, agreeing to meet. If she wanted to see the metal bat, Leyvi wouldn't mind showing her, but the place must be private.

"How about you invite her to a love hotel?" Anda jokingly suggested.

Leyvi rolled his eyes. "She wanted to see the metal bat, not my bat."

"Yours is a metal bat, too. Hehe." Anda giggled.

In the end, at Nala's suggestion, Leyvi invited Sawi to a famous hotpot restaurant in Mercenary City. They had private rooms for their customers to enjoy the food with their companions. The restaurant served a variety of demonic beast meats, spirit vegetables, and others for cultivators.

What made this hotpot restaurant so popular was the broth they used. It was unknown what they added to the broth. Not only did it taste unique, but all the customers had confirmed that the broth had a libido-enhancement effect. Mercenaries loved to dine in this hotpot restaurant before they visited some brothels.

Leyvi finally knew why Nala suggested this place. She had an ulterior motive all along. However, Leyvi still agreed to it because he rarely ate in places like this because they always had Tasya and the maids cooking for them.

It wasn't a bad idea to test something new once in a while. Sawi tried to reject initially, but once Leyvi said he would treat her, she instantly agreed.

The next day, Leyvi and the ladies went to the famous hotpot restaurant, The Lusty Meaty Pot!

Leyvi shook his head after he read the restaurant's big signboard and commented. "This restaurant's name is something that Nala would come up with."

"Hehe, darling really knows me, inside and outside! I wonder who the owner is. Maybe we could get along." Nala acted shameless as usual.

"I wasn't praising you." Leyvi's eyebrow twitched.

"Hehe." Anda giggled. "So where is Sawi?"

"Hmm.... that's weird. She said she's already here." Leyvi replied.

Leyvi spread his spiritual sense and saw Sawi. She was hiding in an alley between buildings, wearing an oversized hoodie.

"She is hiding. She must be afraid of you, the evil panda." Leyvi said.

"Hohoho~ You need to save her from this evil panda then." Anda laughed evilly.

Leyvi then walked over to Sawi's hiding place.

"Yo, Sawi! What are you doing hiding here? Hahaha!" Leyvi suddenly appeared in front of her.

"AHH!" Sawi fell on her butt. "Leyvi, why did you scare me like that?"

"Haha! Who told you to hide like this? Are you that scared of my panda wife?" Leyvi helped her up.

She patted the dust off her back. "No.... I'm not scared of her. I just don't want people to see me at that place. It's embarrassing."

"Why? Because of the name? Hmm... it does sound embarrassing to say. Let's go Sawi, it's time for some lusty meaty pot!" Leyvi said it out loud and pulled her.

"Leyvi, that's embarrassing!" Sawi immediately put up her hoodie to hide her face.

When Leyvi and the ladies met again, Sawi hid behind Leyvi.

"Hello there Miss Sawi. Don't be shy." Nala grabbed Sawi's hand and pulled her out from hiding.

The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

"Alright, let's go in," Leyvi said.

In the hotpot private room, all kinds of ingredients were lined up around a big Yin-Yang pot of simmering broth. The Yin-Yang pot contained broth in two flavors: mild and spicy.

Sawi immediately drooled after she saw the spectacle on the big dining table. When the aroma reached her nose, her mouth became even more watery.

Although she is an array master, her work was mostly maintenance, the cheapest job in the field. So, she never had enough money to enjoy food like this.

"Hahaha! Sawi, stop drooling and come sit here. Pick anything you want and cook them in the broth." Leyvi invited.

"Ah..okay.." Sawi wiped her drool and started to pick ingredients that she wanted to eat.

After stuffing themselves up, Leyvi finally opened up the real conversation. "So why do you want to meet me, Sawi?"

"Burp....Can I talk with you alone?" Sawi asked timidly while she quickly glanced at Anda. She had never eaten as much as this. Her stomach felt bloated.

Leyvi raised his eyebrow and pretended to be suspicious of her, "Sawi, are you really aiming for my body?"

"No no no! Don't misunderstand! I'm just trying to be considerate because it might be something you don't want to tell others." Sawi explained.

"Hahaha! Don't worry about it. Just say it. Why would I be secretive with my women?" Leyvi felt slightly awkward inwardly saying this. After all, he kept a big secret from his women, except for Anda, of course.

Sawi was stunned. Does he really trust his women that much? This is tier-5 spirit equipment we are talking about! If other people knew, they might hunt Leyvi.

She had been mulling over this matter for days whether or not she should expose her secret just to see the thing created by her ancestor. The only reason she could resolve herself to do this was because she strongly felt that Leyvi was a good person.

"It's about the tier-5 equipment." Sawi sent a sound transmission first to see Leyvi's reaction.

"Oh, the tier-5 equipment. Which one?" Leyvi spoke normally.

"Whi-which one??" Sawi almost falls from her chair. What do you mean by which one? How many tier-5 equipment do you have?

"Hahaha! I'm kidding. I only have this one thing. A tier-5 metal bat." Leyvi brought out the metal bat without hesitation. "You should recognize this. The replica is being showcased in the Hall of Fame building."

Sawi fell from her chair. She couldn't believe that Leyvi had casually shown her something that should have been the most important secret to him. This was a tier-5 spirit weapon!

"Leyvi....you...they...." Sawi climbed up from the floor and checked the ladies' expressions, only to find out that they weren't reacting to the tier-5 metal bat at all. It was as if they knew about it all along.

As someone who had been keeping a big secret alone for a long time, she couldn't comprehend how Leyvi was able to trust them completely. Informing them about this would only increase the probability of his secret leaking out.

"Hehe." Anda giggled. "Leyvi, look at her. It seemed like she has a tendency to fall from her seat like you."

Leyvi chuckled. "Ah, I finally found a fellow 'seat-slipper'. What a good day."

The ladies laughed at Leyvi's joke.

Sawi was speechless. Why are they so relaxed? This is supposed to be a serious situation. Is a tier-5 spirit weapon not a big deal anymore nowadays and I'm just being paranoid over a small matter?

"Sawi, why is your mouth still open wide? Are you still hungry? I can cook for you. There are still many demonic beast meats here." Leyvi joked again.

"Darling, maybe she wants your 'meat' now." Nala sexualized the joke.

Leyvi rolled his eyes and replied. "That's what you want. Not her."

"Tee-hee! Busted! Darling always knows what I desire!" Nala acted cute.

"So why do you want to see this thing? How did you know that I possess this metal bat?" Leyvi changed the subject to the tier-5 weapon again.

"Leyvi, can I examine this metal bat?" Sawi snapped out of her speechless and made a request, ignoring Leyvi's question.

Before Leyvi could reply, Anda spoke first, "Miss Sawi, aren't you being too unreasonable? My husband is a trustworthy person, so he has always been transparent with us. He told us this big secret because we are his women. But what about you?"

"I..." Realization dawned on Sawi that the sight of her ancestor's legendary creation had made her too impatient.

"He told us that he got along well with you and thinks that you might be his good friend from now on. Hmph! but from what I see, his judgment this time is wrong. He didn't hide anything and treated you sincerely, but you completely ignored his question." Anda looked disgusted.

Sawi froze.
