Felix thought that the meal would be tense, but the "battle with the scumbag Ash" that she was looking forward to did not happen. Instead, the "ghost prophet desperate battle" broke out first!
"Vichy." Sonia's voice turned cold in vain: "Don't you feel any guilt for hurting Ash?"
"I didn't know I would have a master at the time." Wei Xi said calmly, "But if I had known, I would have been even more ruthless."
Even Diya, who was working hard on the steak, began to feel dissatisfied: "Yash didn't offend you at that time, why did you have to deal with him?"
Wei Xi said indifferently: "When you kicked away the roadblock, did the roadblock have any personal grudge against you?"
"Wait!" Felix stood up anxiously and shouted, "We are companions who fought side by side and escaped from the angel's ambush together. We finally escaped, why are we quarreling now? Oh, right, Guanzuo really forgot what he did after he passed through the empty gate. Let's continue our discussion."
Vichy ignored her and looked at Ash and said, "If you want something from the maid, then I can give you that. But if you want to dig up the treasures of the Ghost Prophet, then I can only give you the treasures that the Ghost Prophet has."
"As for what the Ghost Prophet doesn't have... it just doesn't exist."
Ash looked at her in silence for a long time, then lowered his head to eat the lamb chops in his hand. The mutton was tender and fragrant, the gravy seemed to explode between his lips and teeth, and the aroma of cumin constantly stimulated his taste buds. It was truly fat but not greasy, melting in a sip and refreshing in a chew.
Isn't this delicious? And you still say you're wasting ingredients...
"Do you really have to do this?" he asked softly.
"That's all I can do," Vichy responded.
The maid actually knew that Ash didn't want to see the Ghost Prophet surrender, but chose this time to let her fully integrate into the team. As Felix said, they just lived and died together, and Vichy played a crucial role in it, helping everyone to explode the water coffin and escape. Sword Princess and the others were less vigilant against Vichy. It just so happened that they came to the Senluo Kingdom again, and everyone would definitely recall the bad things Vichy had done in Senluo.
Now all Vichy needs to do is apologize sincerely, and even Silver Lantern will let go of his hostility towards Vichy for the sake of fighting side by side. Then Vichy will be able to truly integrate into the team instead of being treated as a pest that needs to be guarded against by others.
Vichy really wanted to integrate into the team, and it would not do any harm for her to have a good relationship with the girls. When everyone let down their guard against her, the Ghost Prophet could quietly control the team. Ash's good intentions would bring the biggest disaster to the team.
But what Vichy couldn't accept the most was Ash's kindness.
Because they both hate each other.
Ash couldn't accept the cruel and shameless Vichy, so he hated her; Vichy didn't want to like someone who would affect her rationality, so she hated him. They were at the two extremes of mutual disgust, so even if they were doing the most intimate transactions, they would not interfere with each other's ideals.
What Ash was doing now was equivalent to trying to change Vichy into someone he could accept, which was equivalent to taking a step towards Vichy. If Vichy really responded, it would also be equivalent to taking a step towards him, which was equivalent to being willing to change himself.
You stinky man, I just want to give you my body, but I don’t want to give you my heart!
That was why Vichy responded so decisively and violently, almost wiping out the friendship of life and death that had just been established.
"What's our plan next?" asked Deda Rose.
Ash took a sip of water and said, "I plan to retrace my travel route in Senluo to see if I can collect any traces of Igula and Harvey. The focus of the journey happens to be the Spiral of Silence. After taking a look at the true form of the Silver Lantern, we will find a way to the next country."
No one was surprised by this. Sonia said, "You can use this time to recover from your injuries."
"Recovering from the injury?" Ash was startled, then realized something and tried to circulate his magic power. Instantly, a piercing pain spread throughout his body, causing him to lose control of the plate. Fortunately, Felix immediately stretched out his toes to cushion his pain.
"In addition to attacking, demigod wonders are often also curses." Weishi said, "Any injuries that cannot heal automatically and are difficult to treat will deteriorate into curses. And the "Prison of Self-Injury" is a killing wonder that was studied as a curse from the beginning. It is not used to deal with demigods at all, but a curse wonder to weaken the Lord God."
"You were pierced by nine shadow swords for ten minutes. Fortunately, your soul is profound. Ordinary demigods would have been annihilated by the pain long ago. But even so, the shadow sword curse still remains in your soul. You can rely on your special state to hold on during the battle, but now that you rest, the shadow sword curse will be triggered as soon as you use your magic power, causing you to suffer excruciating pain."
Ash's expression was extremely grim: "Then I am useless, right?"
"Yes, yes, we will support you from now on." Diya nodded seriously, patted her chest and said, "You don't need to work hard anymore!"
When Ash looked sad, Weisser smiled and said, "It's not that serious. Not to mention my healing ability, you are healing yourself. I estimate that it will take at least half a year or a few months to completely remove your Shadow Sword Curse."
Ash immediately relaxed, spread his hands and said with a smile: "Then I'll rely on you to protect me in the next few months. Now I can't even beat Felix."
Felix's heart moved and he was eager to try it.
“That may not be the case,” Sonia said, sipping her juice. “If you can enter the shared virtual wing state again, you might be immune to the pain caused by the shadow sword curse.”
"so……"
"Ash, why did you share Vichy's virtual wings at that time?"
It's finally here.
Ash knew he couldn't hide, but facing Sonia's clear gaze, he didn't want to lie: "Because I can only share Vichy's virtual wings."
"Why?" Sonia immediately asked, "What kind of ceremony did Vichy perform with you to allow you to share her virtual wings? Or, in your heart, it is actually Vichy——"
"No, no, it has nothing to do with Vichy." Ash was a little overwhelmed, so he had to tell part of the truth: "Actually... it's the influence of Hell. I have seen the ghost of the Final Five. The ghost is Vichy's future body. I can share Vichy's virtual wings because of the gift of the ghost."
"Bullshit!" Weishi blurted out: "The future me will give gifts? Will I still run charity?"
Weisser narrowed her eyes slightly, she grabbed Ash's wrist, "What did you pay for it?"
Ash's lips moved slightly, he looked around at everyone and said, "It's just a small contribution."
"It's neither a soul nor a body. It's just something that was temporarily stored in me by the Final Five." Ash took Weisser's hand in return. "You have checked my soul and body. Have you found anything missing from me?"
Weisser looked into Ash's eyes and slowly lowered her gaze: "...It's better this way."
Diya asked in a low voice: "So after you passed through the empty door, you suddenly became..." She hesitated for a long time and tried to come up with a more elegant word, "... wild. Is it also because of the gift?"
When it comes to this question, the girls stare at Ash again. Ash can get away with "How to share virtual wings", but he can't get away with this question. They must know Ash's specific ** mechanism in order to deal with Ash's next rampage.
"That must be due to the influence of the shared Void Wings!" Ash said firmly, "I was contaminated by Vichy's personality, so I lost my mind and turned into an instinctive beast!"
"Don't spit on me!" Weixi refused to take the blame: "If it was really my personality that affected them, they would have been soul-chained by you and become your slaves!"
"But Ash wasn't just indulging himself in lust," Weisser reminded, "He also healed our soul cracks, otherwise we wouldn't have recovered so quickly."
"But he was definitely influenced by Vichy," Diya stood on Ash's side, "The normal Ash is not that kind of person at all. It is definitely not his true intention to become wild!"
Sonia crossed her legs and propped up her chin, looking across the fire at Ash, and suddenly asked, "Have you recovered your memory?"
Ash's eyes wandered: "I have recovered a little bit..."
"Then what do you think?" Sonia tilted her head and asked, "Do you think that you did that kind of thing because of your distorted desires, and it has nothing to do with you?"
Ash blinked, pondered for a moment, and let out a long breath.
"No." He said, "That's actually... what I've always wanted to do."
The campfire immediately became quiet. Felix covered his mouth and waited quietly for Ash to completely expose his trashy scumbag side!
"I have fantasized more than once about being able to hold both of you in my arms at the same time," Ash covered his face in shame and said, "I have never given up the idea of having both of you as my lovers, even though I know that is an unattainable miracle and it is very disrespectful to you..."
"Perhaps I was not contaminated by Vichy's virtual wings, but Vichy's virtual wings tore my mask, causing me to unconsciously reveal my truest and most unbearable side."
At this point, Ash was already feeling extremely ashamed, and took the initiative to take everyone's used plates and wash them.
Sonia and the others stayed by the campfire. They looked at each other and nodded silently. When Ash came back, Sword Princess said to him, "Okay."
Ash was startled: "What's good?"
…
…
In the tent, Ash, who had just finished a shower, lay stiffly on the big bed. He watched Sonia, who was wearing pajamas, untie her hair rope and put on a red silk shawl like a waterfall; watched Diya deliberately change back to her girlish form and put on a cute nightgown; watched Weisser's clothes become cooler; the wildest one was Weixi, who snapped her fingers and the maid outfit on her body dissipated like a flame, leaving only her underwear.
"Good night."
After turning off the lights, Ash felt a warm body pressed against him on both sides. On the left was a curvy body that pressed against Ash's arm, and her breath, as soft as orchid, gently caressed Ash's collarbone. It was obviously Sword Princess. On the right was a lively and exquisite body that not only actively hugged his arm, but also had one leg wrapped around his waist. She was definitely a witch with a very bad sleeping posture.
Behind the Sword Lady was Silver Lantern, who was holding his hands between two soft balls of elasticity. Behind the Witch was Vichy, who had her back to them.
"Don't be nervous." Sword Princess gently stroked his chest and chuckled, "Tonight is a special case, a special reward for you. We watched you fight for us in the water coffin, and we thought that no matter what you asked for, we would satisfy you."
"Your reward could have been even more 'generous'." Yin Deng said with a smile, "But you just passed through the Void Gate and you already paid a lot in advance from us."
"Ash, Liz has fallen asleep." The witch reminded, "You can start now."
"Don't start!" Sword Princess knocked on the witch's head: "You can only sleep tonight, and you are not allowed to do anything else!"
"Wow... I'm not doing it myself, I'm reminding Ash to do it..."
"Ash won't give it to me either!"
After a while, Ash suddenly felt a kiss on his left cheek, and then a sweet whisper sounded in his ear: "Can we go to sleep now?"
"Hmm." Ash snorted softly.
Soon, he was kissed on the right and left cheeks, and Ash felt that he was about to sink into the gentleness of these girls. He knew that this was just a temporary compromise for them to repay him, and it did not mean that they were really willing to serve him together. When he woke up tomorrow, those who should feel wronged would still feel wronged, those who should feel jealous would still feel jealous, and those who should feel hostile would still feel hostile.
But even if it was just a fleeting fantasy, it was a great comfort to Ash.
Suddenly, someone grabbed the palm of Ash's right hand and seemed to be writing on it.
"Ghost Prophet won't apologize"
Then Ash's palm was tickled, and Ash tickled the other's palm as well. The movement of the arm disturbed the witch's sweet dream, and she made a cute snort, and then further entangled with Ash - this guy fell asleep so quickly!
Ash's heart also calmed down. The angels' pursuit, the Starry Supreme's coveting, the crisis of hell, everything seemed to become insignificant at this moment. He could finally put aside the pressure temporarily and fall asleep peacefully.
Perhaps, even if it is a miracle that is out of reach, he can realize it bit by bit...
…
Ash was awakened by the noise of battle.
**As he was left alone, Ash suddenly had a bad feeling. He left the tent and saw a dangerous battle of magic and defense taking place in the dark and turbid sky!
Sword Lady's blood moon frenzy submerged Vichy's figure, and Vichy's soul scream pierced Sword Lady's barrier!
The witch's silk threads tried to strangle the gods, and the silver lamp's ultimate silver light evolved into thousands of miracles!
Ash stared at them fighting each other, and just as he was about to rush over to stop them, his magic power triggered the Shadow Sword Curse, causing him to feel numb all over. Could it be that because he had lost his ability to fight, they took this opportunity to seek revenge, to settle grievances...?
He shouted with all his might: "Stop fighting!"
The fight stopped immediately. Sonia landed in front of him and asked curiously, "Why don't you get some more sleep since you're injured? Did we disturb you?"
Ash asked nervously, "Why did you guys start fighting?"
"We are just exchanging skills and familiarizing ourselves with demigod-level combat." Diya said, "It just so happens that Senluo Country is a place where we can destroy it at will, without having to worry about the aftermath of the battle affecting the celestial phenomena and changing the terrain. There is no better place for us to hone our skills than this."
So that's how it is. Ash breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to pat Sword Princess on the shoulder: "I thought you two were fighting--"
Sonia dodged sideways, and Ash missed. The two looked at each other, and Ash opened his arms to hug her, but Sonia dodged again.
Ash looked at himself and asked in confusion, "Is there something wrong with me?"
The female magicians looked at each other. Sonia coughed and said solemnly, "Actually, we made a decision yesterday after you fell asleep."
"After the battle at Starbridge Hall, I realized that we were too lazy. We didn't hone our skills after we were promoted to demigods, and we didn't even fully master the wonders. If we had spent the past half month studying our own strength instead of eating, drinking and having fun, we might not have been beaten so badly by the Sword Law."
"In order to prevent such a helpless situation from happening again, we decided to devote ourselves to honing our skills and practicing tactical coordination, and strive not to hold you back. In your future decisive battle with Fanxing, we will become your military flag."
Ash nodded repeatedly and clapped his hands vigorously, "Okay! I agree!"
"In order to achieve this goal, we need to get rid of those external influences that will wear down our will." Sonia said: "So... Ash, do you understand?"
Ash blinked and shook his head: "I don't understand."
"We plan to give up sex!" Diya said, jumping up and down. "Lust can easily lead to depravity, and it also causes us to quarrel. It is simply the source of trouble!"
"I don't object to your point." Ash said, "But what does this have to do with me..."
As he was talking, Ash suddenly realized something and showed an expression of disbelief on his face, as if to say, "You guys can't be so outrageous."
"That's right."
Yin Deng covered her mouth, with a hint of charm flowing down her brows: "We plan to quit you."
