Bubbles were bubbling in the huge alloy pot, and the aroma of food filled the living room.
This was originally a crucible used to refine alchemical potions, but now it is just right for Char and Airola to use it for hot pot.
The two sat facing each other.
Neither Char nor Airola liked to talk while eating, so the living room fell into silence.
Originally there were only knives and forks in the Western Continent, but Airola was taught how to use chopsticks by Char long ago, and now she wields chopsticks very quickly, even more skillfully than Char.
Her posture when eating was very elegant, but her movements were not slow at all. Soon she had swept away most of the food in the pot.
Although she looks slim and slender, Airola is actually an armed beastmaster who has to go into battle to kill enemies. Naturally, her appetite is much greater than that of ordinary people.
In Char's soul contract space, Shanshan was lying weakly. He had just been captured by Char and brought to the kitchen to serve food.
Red was not spared either. Its "slashing" skill also came in handy when preparing food. With one sword after another, it cut the freshly bought beef into perfectly cooked beef rolls.
...
...
It was not as exhausted as Shanshan. After all, swinging the sword thousands of times was just its most insignificant daily routine. The little silver spirit just stared at the red blade in its hand in a daze. It discovered for the first time that the slashing blow could also have the function of cutting beef rolls.
As for Gin, he was lying on his special seat on Char's shoulder and yawning as usual. The little snow ferret had the easiest task, as he was only responsible for providing fire.
After a long time, Aurora put down the bowl and chopsticks, touched her still flat belly and said, "I'm full."
Then she saw Char taking off the headscarf that he had put on his head at some point.
"Poor hospitality."
…
After eating and drinking, Airola returned to the meditation room.
She had just completed a breakthrough, and her soul power was still in a fluctuating state, which required time to stabilize.
And Char returned to the bedroom on the second floor.
He sat down at the desk, lit the magic lamp on the table, and casually took out a book from the bookcase and began to read.
Snap——
A small silver spinning top was thrown by Char and began to spin on the wooden table.
An unknown amount of time had passed, but when the silver top began to wobble, Char suddenly closed the book in his hand.
"Welcome."
Char spoke.
The silver top stopped spinning, swung a few times, and then fell on the wooden table.
"You're a little slower than I expected."
“It can’t be helped… Char-san.”
A soft voice sounded in the room.
"Who told Ai Ruola to be so sensitive? She doesn't look like an ordinary three-ring person at all. I spent a lot of effort to bypass her and see you..."
"Just like the story you wrote, Char... Romeo and Juliet, two people who are not tolerated by the world but meet every night despite numerous difficulties and dangers, don't you think it's romantic?"
Xia turned around and saw a figure standing in front of the window.
This is a girl with a slim figure, a beautiful appearance, and wearing a white dress.
The bright moonlight sprinkled on her profile, making her look pure and charming.
However, what caught her most attention were the slightly protruding white horns among her hair.
There are also the black wings extending from the well-defined back, flapping slightly, and the heart-shaped tail swaying in the moonlight.
There is only one race that meets these characteristics that Char knows of.
Succubus.
Char looked the girl in front of him up and down, his pupils shrinking slightly.
"Where is my innocent school beauty?" "Where is my student council president who is so gentle, kind, well-educated, and upright?"
"Oh, I see."
Char showed a look of sudden enlightenment: "It was you, the cunning succubus, who used your racial talent to disguise yourself as President Diris."
"I see. But do you think I will fall for it? Do you really think that you can do whatever you want just because you have big breasts and make me crazy?"
"No."
The girl in the white dress smiled and denied it. Her pretty face showed two completely opposite attributes: purity and charm. "I am the real Diris herself."
"Something's wrong."
Xia's eyes lingered on Diris' body: "I clearly remember that succubi are a species of the abyss, and they cannot open the soul contract to become beast masters."
"It's true for ordinary people of the same race, but I'm a royal family among succubi, so I can also open a soul contract like humans."
Diris walked out from the moonlight in front of the window, knelt on Xia's bed, and slowly folded her dark wings.
"That's even more wrong. Only the purest and most virgin girl can be contracted with a pure white unicorn..."
Xia looked at the girl in front of him and an absurd guess arose in his mind.
“Could it be——”
"Are you the legendary Shame of the Succubus?"
"That's really hurtful of Char-san." Diris showed a hurt expression: "But I'm still a rookie, and even the racial skill "Dream Creation" is the first time I use it on someone else."
She knelt on Char's bed in a duck-like sitting position, and her heart-shaped tail rolled up the pillow on the bed disobediently:
"I originally wanted to let Char-san have a sweet dream without him noticing, but now it seems that you have already discovered it. Obviously, he is quite confident in his mental strength."
"I can't help it. I've encountered a lot of illusionists recently, and I've developed resistance to them."
Char's body relaxed again. "It just so happens that my Gin is an expert in illusion. It seems that Stand users of the same type are attracted to each other."
He had long anticipated that there was something wrong with Diris. The reason he was shocked earlier was mainly because the contrast between this girl's image before and after was too great.
Also, the fact that a succubus can make a contract with a pure white unicorn is incredible in itself.
Xia lay down on the chair and tapped the table with his fingers: "A succubus royal family from the abyss plane has been able to quietly lurk in Saint Laurent College for so many years. I don't believe that there is no one protecting it behind the scenes-"
He recalled the few cryptic hints that Lieutenant Colonel Sieg had given him after the Ash Cult incident.
"So - you came to see me this time, representing the Empire?"
"Or at least some official part of the empire?"
"It's true that nothing can be hidden from Char-san."
Diris's gaze paused on Char's face for a moment, and then he nodded: "So, can you cooperate with me, Char?"
"Someone wants to see your perfect dream, or rather, wants to see your dream... If you fail to complete the task, they will be punished."
Diris immediately noticed that Char had a strange look in his eyes.
"My dream?"
Char's expression was subtle.
"Of course you can, but I have to warn you first, the last person who spied on my mental world... didn't end well."
"I am a follower of the Dream Dragon, a legitimate succubus princess... I am not some half-baked scumbag, so don't worry, Char-san."
Diris noticed the disappearance of Char's autonomous mental resistance, a smile appeared on her pretty face, and then she silently activated her racial skill "Dream Creation".
The next moment, the door of the room that was originally closed suddenly opened.
Behind the door is not the corridor that was supposed to be there.
Instead, it is a dazzling and boundless sea of stars.
