I thought receiving handmade chocolates from Attorney Fei for Valentine's Day would be the last surprise of the day.
However, a surprise is called a surprise precisely because it is a surprise.
It's because just when you think you've reached the top, it always surprises you with a triple somersault in the air.
After briefly tasting the Unbeatable Queen's chocolate, Yuzuru Hanyu leisurely swung on the swing in the backyard, stroking the fluffy little head of Bobo, who was lying beside him, dozing off with his eyes half-closed.
Suddenly, a slightly hurried flapping sound came from afar.
A black crow with a slightly frightened look in its eyes was flying crookedly toward them, and it seemed to be holding a small package in its claws.
However, when it flew closer and sensed the aura that Popona unintentionally emitted below, it was instantly so frightened that its feathers stood on end and it let out a sharp "caw!"
The crows performed a dramatic mid-air stop.
I almost fell headfirst into a bird pancake.
Its biological instinctual fear made it tremble and dare not approach any closer. It could only hover anxiously in mid-air, emitting pitiful and helpless "caw caws".
It's like saying, "Brother, spare me! I'm just a deliveryman!"
Bobo lazily raised its eyelids, glanced at the cowardly crow that had disturbed its peace with a kingly disdain, turned its head away disdainfully, and rubbed its head against its owner's palm again.
—Weakling.
They don't even have the qualifications to make desserts.
Yuzuru Hanyu couldn't help but laugh out loud at the comical scene.
He waved to the panicked crow in the air, releasing a gentle aura.
Only then did the crow seem to find its anchor. It carefully lowered its altitude, tossed the small box wrapped in dark purple velvet and tied with a silver ribbon into Yuzuru's arms, and then, as if it had completed its mission, flew away without looking back, its speed more than twice as fast as when it came.
"Using crows to deliver things..."
Yuzuru weighed the box in his hand, which emitted a faint magical aura, and chuckled to himself.
Is Miss Witch cosplaying as Harry Potter?
Why not just send an owl?
He might even receive an acceptance letter from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, with a major called "How to Effectively Manage a Harem."
Unwrapping the velvet box revealed a more gothic and refined obsidian-colored heart-shaped box.
Upon opening the box, several chocolates, as beautiful as rubies yet subtly shimmering with an eerie purplish-black luster, were neatly arranged inside.
Just by looking at it, you can feel the extraordinary magic it contains.
"Miss Witch, you're still up to your old tricks..."
Yuzuru picked up a piece, held it to his nose and sniffed it. In addition to the rich aroma of chocolate, there was also a very subtle, yet strangely sweet fragrance that could stir up the deepest desires in people's hearts.
This isn't chocolate; it's clearly a tactical nuclear weapon concentrated with countless doses of "love potion."
Specializing in attacking the lower body... no, I mean, attacking the psychological defenses.
That's what they say.
Yuzuru took a bite without hesitation.
The True Love Potion works on humans, but it doesn't say it works on angels.
This is like trying to get Godzilla drunk with a glass of beer—a pipe dream.
The texture is incredibly smooth, melting in your mouth, sweet with a hint of bitterness, and a lingering sweetness after the bitterness. The witch's skill is indeed impeccable—if you ignore the magic that comes with it, trying to penetrate the depths of the soul and stir up the most primal desires.
Yuzuru savored it carefully, feeling that the little bit of magic that tried to cause trouble disappear like a mud ox sinking into the sea, easily swallowed, dissolved, and absorbed by his own greater power, without even making a bubble.
"The taste is good, the texture is perfect, but the creativity is zero."
I ate way too much chocolate today, in every sense of the word, from its physical sweetness to its magical properties.
Koizumi Akako always appeared to be at odds with him, constantly opposing him and saying that she would trample him underfoot and make him her prisoner, with an attitude as arrogant as a peacock spreading its tail feathers.
But in reality, both of them were determined to have each other.
That's why the proud and arrogant witch would use such an awkward and mysterious way to present this carefully "prepared" chocolate with hidden secrets on Valentine's Day.
It is both a provocation and a form of alternative recognition and...marking.
For Koizumi Akako, who inherited a thousand years of red magic and bore the heavy responsibility of passing on the witch's bloodline, Hanyu Kusunoki, a powerful, mysterious man who was completely unaffected by her magic and could even suppress her, and whose appearance perfectly matched (or even exceeded) the witch's aesthetic standards, was simply the perfect "partner" candidate.
There was no one more suitable than him to conceive the next generation of witches with her and continue the glory of the Red Magic lineage.
Even witches need to "produce offspring" and consider superior genes!
A thousand-year-old tradition cannot be treated lightly.
We must never let our relationship with her end or even decline.
What appears to be a playful rivalry between the two is actually a covert struggle for control of the future.
Koizumi Akako wanted to conquer him, to make him fall at her feet; while Hanyu Kusunoki wanted to make her willingly submit and willingly enter his world.
However, Yuzuru Hanyu was not in a hurry.
He slowly closed the chocolate box, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.
Tomorrow is the monthly "Magic Seminar".
As a sincere return for Miss Witch's generous Valentine's Day gift, he naturally had to personally visit Miss Akako and, together with her, "properly," deeply, and "academically" "taste" and "discuss" the wonderful aspects of the chocolate and its "side effects."
