"Because it's really funny." Felix pursed his lips, his eyebrows curved and full of smiles: "In order to give up sex, I have to give up you... Hahahaha, in the stories I've heard, it's often the case that men have to give up sex when they meet Veela. These stories are all about advising men not to indulge in women and to learn to control their bodies. But you can actually force four female magicians to give up sex. Even a real male Veela can only do this, right?"

"No, they just don't want to have any contact with me for the time being so that they can focus more on training!" Ash tried to explain: "This is different from Veela!"

"Isn't this different? Don't Veela also use charm to wear down people's will?"

Ash shook his head. "You have never seen a Veela, so you think the charm of a Veela is some kind of spiritual charm. But a real Veela can be so enchanting that it will take you forever. You can't stop at all. You will only feel like you are immersed in a sea of ​​pleasure..."

Felix looked at Ash's emotional expression and raised his eyebrows: "I don't understand, but why do you understand so well?"

Ash blinked and lowered his head to continue washing clothes: "Anyway, I support their choice to focus on magic. Since they believe that "without a man in mind, the sword will naturally become a god", then I will naturally not affect their state of mind."

"What about the truth?"

"I haven't replenished Sword Princess' energy for a long time..." Ash lowered his head dejectedly: "I really want to kiss and hug Sword Princess..."

"I can see it," Felix said. "Since the third day, you've gradually become as needy as an unwanted puppy. These past few nights I've been wondering if you'd raid their tents at night."

"You figured it out?" Ash was startled: "Then are they also..."

“They must have seen that,” Felix shrugged. “But that’s the point of quitting.”

"Compared to momentary happiness, only by possessing strength can one pursue more precious happiness. And they do this not only for their own training, but also for the future of the team."

"Only when they are completely isolated from your influence can they put aside their grudges and work closely with each other. You know, these few days are the best days for them to get along with each other since I met you."

"You should know that even half a year ago, when Sword Lady and Witch took over the Four Pillars of God Sect on your behalf, you were clearly trapped in the Four Pillars of God Sect with only an unconscious body left, but they still argued endlessly about it."

"Things got more complicated after you woke up," Felix adjusted the water flow to wash the clothes, and the water made a gurgling sound. "We only maintained the most fragile peace on the surface, but the verbal battles and intrigues in secret never stopped for a day. There were several times when conflicts almost broke out. Fortunately, you suppressed the conflicts in time."

"I thought their relationship would never get better." Felix glanced at Ash. "After all, they have irreconcilable conflicts of interest, and each of them thinks they have a chance to be the only winner, so they can't escape the zero-sum game competition at all."

Ash lowered his head and scrubbed the clothes in silence.

"But they have shown me the side of a talented female magician these days," Felix said. "They are serious, focused, inspired, and able to draw inferences from one instance to another. The battle at the Star Bridge Hall completely aroused their sense of crisis. In order to become stronger, they indulged their talents without reservation. Even Sister Vichy did not hide her talents. They tried their best to absorb nutrition from each other, and almost every day they left their previous selves far behind."

"Ash," Felix exclaimed as he spun off a pair of dark blue underwear, "They are sparkling."

Ash looked at the clothes he had washed: "What on earth do you want to say."

"I'm just speaking your mind." Felix said, "Your whole face is full of self-doubt, 'They've improved so quickly since I quit, am I holding them back?' When you came back, you took the initiative to help with the laundry, and I washed it for eight days before, but you didn't say a word... You're surprisingly understanding."

"...I will wash my own clothes from now on." Ash felt a little embarrassed.

"No, everyone has their own responsibilities in the team. I am a small sanctuary magician and I am responsible for handling chores. Your responsibility is to take care of their "contraband." Felix glanced at him and took his unwashed shirt to himself. "Besides, you wash so slowly and your efficiency is too low. You can't use your magic power, and you really become a small fish."

"Hey, you're going a bit too far!"

"Let's fight. Can you beat me?" Felix challenged, "If you have the guts, get beaten up and don't tell your girlfriends."

"I'll spank you when I recover my magic power." Ash said something harsh, and then hurried away, as if he was really afraid of her hitting him. Felix waited until he was far away, looked at his unwashed shirt, held it up, took a deep breath, and subconsciously tightened his buttocks.

When Felix finished washing the clothes, he found that Yazheng was grinding coffee by hand. He added milk and sugar to his cup and handed the black coffee to Felix, "You only want to drink the original flavor of the beans, right? But my cooking skills are average, so you have to make do with it."

The blonde girl looked at him strangely, took a sip of coffee and said, "I can't be their meal replacement, and they don't allow me to have contact with you."

In fact, whether Sword Princess and the others abstain from sex or not, Felix and Deda Rose are not allowed to "touch" Ash. However, taking advantage of this abstention event, they also established the code of conduct for Felix and Deda Rose, and clarified the boundaries between them and the "contraband" Ash.

"It's just a reward for you to finish your chores." Ash said unhappily, "Although I don't often notice your contributions, but now that I have noticed, I should at least show it off."

"You're just sending me away with a cup of coffee..." Felix muttered, "You're really stingy with a woman who's not yours..."

"You just said that you were just speaking my mind." Ash held up the coffee cup, "What about your mind? Do you also think that I am hindering their development?"

Felix thought for a moment and asked, "Let me ask you a question first - if you have children with them, will you be good to their children?"

"Of course." Ash said without hesitation.

"You prefer Sword Princess the most now, so will you prefer Sword Princess's children in the future?"

"Treat them equally." Ash replied: "Although I don't have any parenting experience, I will try my best to treat our children equally."

"Let's assume that you can really treat everyone equally," Felix said, "but won't your child be very pitiful? From the moment she is born, she knows that she is not her parents' favorite child, and there will be many half-siblings to share the love she can get."

"And if even the mothers are in a competitive relationship with each other, do you think the children will become friendly and united? Or do you have the confidence that they can completely let go of their obsessions and serve you wholeheartedly?"

Ash was about to say something in rebuttal, but he fell silent upon hearing this.

Felix rested her chest on the table and leaned towards Ash. This usually weak and timid blonde girl suddenly showed an aggressive demeanor.

"This is what I really think." Miss Vosloda said, "You are not delaying their development, you are delaying their lives."
