MMORPG: Rebirth as an Alchemist-Chapter 540 Elena’s Wager

"What's all the commotion about?" Elena went out of the pavilion, groggy and yawning. When she flung the curtains that served as the only divider between the guest room and the outside, Ren saw how Josh and the others' faces changed.

Elena was wearing a delicate sleepwear made of shimmering silk with intricate lace detailing, which flowed gracefully around her figure as she moved. The garment was a soft shade of lavender, which complemented her fair elven complexion and radiant silver blond hair.

The others present were momentarily stunned by her beauty. Her ethereal features were striking, with delicate, pointed ears and bright, sparkling eyes that seemed to shine like stars. Her lips were full and rosy, and her skin was smooth and flawless, like alabaster.

But it was not just her physical beauty that captured the attention of those around her. Princess Elena had a commanding presence that was both regal and warm, drawing people towards her with a natural magnetism. She moved with grace and poise, her every motion seeming to flow like water, and her voice was gentle yet commanding, holding a natural authority that was impossible to ignore.

As she looked out to see what was happening, her expression remained serene and composed, despite the chaos around her. Her beauty and calmness only served to enhance her regal presence, making her seem even more otherworldly and captivating.

She was indeed beautiful, but Ren had to pity for that someone asking the Princess's hand.

Josh and the others were completely spellbound by Princess Elena's beauty. They stood frozen, unable to react or even speak, as they drank in her ethereal presence. Her natural grace and charm seemed to fill the room, making it difficult for anyone to look away.

As Josh stared upon the elven Princess, he felt a strange sensation in his chest. It was as though he was seeing something that he had never seen before, something that he could not explain. He found himself transfixed by her bright, sparkling eyes, which seemed to hold a world of mystery and wonder within them.

The others present felt the same way as if they were under some kind of enchantment. Princess Elena had a rare beauty that was both alluring and mysterious, captivating anyone who beheld her with an unexplainable fascination.

For a moment, no one spoke, and the only sound in the room was the soft rustling of the Princess's silk sleepwear as she moved. It was as if time had stopped, and everyone present was lost in the beauty of the elven Princess, unable to look away or even think of anything else.

"Oh my." Elena faked a surprise, and he looked at Ren in a half-demure and half-teasing kind of way. "Who are they? Your friends?"

Ren replied with a big, fat, hard "NO."

"You must be Elena," Josh muttered, eyes rounding. His voice suddenly found the vigor of its youth.

"Who?" Kylie asked, grumpy and sullen.

"You know, that popular NPC who became an instant sensation. Apparently, she's an Elf Princess," Josh explained without pulling his eyes from Elena.

Ren had known about that forum circulating in the net. Apparently, Elena's popularity was making rounds now even as they spoke, and everyone who wasn't in the Fey Realm, men mostly, was trying to gain access to the Elven Kingdom by spending days in the Maze Forest just so they could get to know the Princess in the future.

Of course, Ren didn't let that opportunity slip by his hands. It was the perfect time to auction his Maze Forest map, and right now, the bid was getting as high as four million and counting.

Ren had slipped a few pieces of info as well to spike the price. He spread the fact that the players could marry Elena if they reach their relationship level with her to [Intimate] and proceed with the final quest for her hands in marriage.

Ren might have added something to spice things up, and it worked, as evidence by the ludicrous price of the map. It was first come, first serve with the Princess's affection, after all.

Whoever acquires the map first had the highest chance of marrying her.

The players could have multiple marriages in the game, but the NPC could only end up with one player. And that was final and irrevocable.

Ren got to say that his plan worked like a charm – thanks to the Princess, of course.

"Now that your companions awake, it's our turn at the room," said Kylie, voice bitter and spiteful when the boys fawn over at the Princess.

Elena looked at Ren, and the latter explained the situation.

"Oh. If it's just about a room, then I might have a solution," Elena said, mischief in her smile.

Ren didn't like where this was going. Usually, he received the end of the blunt for the Princess's antics.

And he was right when Elena pulled something out from her storage and said, "I assume that you guys are out of provisions. That's why you wanted to stay in here, right?"

The princess didn't let them speak and added, "This is one hundred [Glamping Tents x100]. They aren't just ordinary Tents you buy in the stores. No. This is Elven-made, and only high-ranking nobles and royalties may have this. Just pop this little thing on the ground, and it would turn into a small hut. Warm, cozy, and impenetrable."

As the Princess explained, Ren couldn't help but frown. If she had that thing, then why didn't she use it in the first place? Was she bluffing?

It must be.

Or not.

He would never know.

"This would surely aid you in your journey here," finished Elena.

"How much are you selling those?" Lily asked for the first time.

While Josh still couldn't find his words. He was still dumbstruck at Elena's beauty. Maybe this event had turned him into Elena's fan instead of a Lily fan.

Or maybe he was thinking of marrying the Princess in the virtual world while getting Lily in the real world. It was every man's dream.

Who could tell?

"Oh, I'm not selling this sweet thing." Elena giggled. "If you can defeat my companion over here, then these items are yours. For FREE."

See? Ren thought with a hard sigh. The Princess and her antics.
