“I didn’t expect you to take my words so seriously,” Felix’s voice was filled with incredible admiration, “and you actually used this method to forcibly purify your distracting thoughts.”

"But your distracting thoughts are too strong, aren't they because of the demigod? They haven't been purified all night." She pondered, "But that's not right. If all demigods are like this, then Sword Princess and the others should be as serious as you. But I have never found any abnormal signs in them, so this should be just your personal problem."

That’s because all their abnormal signs are here with me!

Ash gave up on treatment completely, "Just finish the check-up and go back. We can talk about it tomorrow if there's anything."

"What, you still want to continue? Wait, am I disturbing you? You are not finished yet?"

Hearing Felix's suppressed laughter, Ash knew she was teasing him, and said unhappily, "I'm just a spectator after all, can you show some respect?"

"Okay, okay, I'll check it for you right now... Forget it, you can toss and turn in the middle of the night by yourself, and your body is healthier than mine, I'm sure I can't find anything. And if something bad happens... You don't want to see me chop off my hands, do you?"

"Hello!!!"

"I'm just praising you for being awesome, don't be angry. At most I won't laugh." Felix said seriously, "But I won't touch you. After all, there are rules for abstinence. I'm just worried that something might happen to you, like falling off the bed and fainting... But don't you want to control yourself a little? After all, you're still under the curse..."

Ash was furious: "You were laughing the whole time, you never stopped!"

"Wait for me, take a deep breath, take a deep breath." Felix took several deep breaths and breathed slowly, "No, I can't stop completely. I want to laugh as soon as I smell this smell."

"You are such a nasty person..." Ash was so moved by her that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He waved his hand and said, "Didn't you just say you had something to talk to me about? Now go back to sleep."

"Well, it's not a big deal." Felix shook his body, and the bed creaked under his hips. "I just suddenly felt a little embarrassed. I have no right to say anything about your affairs, and you said such excessive things."

"It's none of your business. I was asking for your honest opinion."

"But aren't you broken?"

"I didn't expect..."

"Do you think that your behavior of liking several girls will win the recognition and praise of me, Felix Vosloda, an independent female magician? Do you expect that I should look at you with stars in my eyes and envy your deep love for them?"

Well said, the girls in the closet give a thumbs up to Felix.

Ash was speechless and said with embarrassment, "So I am stupid and fragile and I want to be scolded, okay? So what are you doing here? Are you not satisfied enough and you come to scold me again?"

Felix then noticed that he was a little agitated, so he calmed down and said, "Sorry, I accidentally got so aggressive... But I don't think it's my fault. It's because you were too irritating."

"But no matter how trashy and irritating you are, I shouldn't have said those words to break your fragile heart. I'm sorry." Felix said sincerely: "My education taught me that I should remain elegant even when facing scum."

Ash was speechless: "Are you here to apologize or insult me... Okay, okay, I accept your apology. Even if your cooking is not delicious, I will not take advantage of it, okay?"

"I won't cook bad food." Felix pouted: "I have studied the new ways of eating you proposed for a long time, and I will let you try them only after I am sure they taste good."

"I came here to tell you..."

Felix let out a long breath and said faintly, "Ash, do you know that I hate you?"

"Really? I can't detect it at all~" Ash said in a clip voice with a very annoying tone: "I always thought that you always like to make fun of me to get my attention~"

The girl in the darkness was silent for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Are you angry?"

Ash said angrily, "If I were angry, I would have called someone to beat you up. You are really... Although you have a sharp tongue, you really hit the nail on the head. I am angry at myself, not you. Igula is just like you. He also dislikes me and often insults me, but he is my best friend."

"Although I'm not considered wise, I can still distinguish between good intentions and bad intentions." He smiled and said, "You don't have to apologize specifically in the future. I asked for your opinion, which means I trust you. If you really feel guilty, just make me a cake tomorrow... No, the more I think about it, the angrier Igulla is. After he pissed me off, he didn't apologize at all. I declare that Harvey is my best friend."

"Are these the only two people you can consider as your best friends?" Felix asked.

Ash was stunned, and a strong feeling of sadness came over him - his best friend could only choose between the trickster and the necromancer?

"Why do you suddenly want to eat cake?" Felix asked curiously, "You don't usually like desserts."

"Ah, that's because today is my birthday. I'm not interested in the cake, the point is to share it with Sword Princess and the others." Ash said, "Don't worry about it, just keep talking about how you hate me."

Felix was silent, his tone was very complicated: "You did it on purpose, how can I continue... I actually scolded you on your birthday..."

"You broke my defense, and I made you feel guilty. Isn't that fair?" Ash chuckled, "If you can't say it, then let's talk about it next time."

"No, I'm going to say it now." Felix shook his head: "Do you know when I started to hate you?"

"Since the first time we met, when I kidnapped you on the train?"

"It started when I met your two 'queens'," Felix said calmly. "Sonia already surprised me, and then the witch came all the way from the Gospel Kingdom to find you. I thought they were deceived at first, but then I found out that they were unwilling to give up, and you wanted them all... At that time, I thought you were a disgusting veela."

"Those who are unfaithful to love should all die."

Ash couldn't help but remind her, "For birthday cakes, I like fruit cakes."

"I know it's your birthday. I'm just expressing my true feelings, not scolding you on purpose." Felix muttered, "The better the Sword Princess and the Witch perform, the more I feel sorry for them. I look forward to you coming back from the Star Prison every day so that they can kill you to prove your truth."

"So I'm really happy these days that they keep their distance from you and you reflect on yourself." Felix continued, "I would say that you delayed them. In fact, I don't really want you to break up with them, but I think you should choose your true love and love her wholeheartedly, and keep a distance from others as friends, instead of being promiscuous and shameless like this and getting entangled."

Diya, Weisser, and Weishi in the closet could all sense the Sword Lady's excitement from Sonia's subtle body movements. They cursed inwardly, "You knew Ash would choose you," and then silently lowered their favorability towards Felix, temporarily defining her identity card as "Sword Lady faction."

When Felix said this, she could only be defined as a side swordsman!

"Thank you." Ash said sincerely, "But I can answer you now."

"I have always felt that I am a mudblood magician. I have absolutely no qualities that a magician should have. I understand all the principles, but there are some mistakes I have to make, and some people I just can't give up. The only bad habit I have as a magician is believing in miracles."

"Believe that what is false can become true." Vichy pricked up his ears.

"Believe that impossible wishes can come true." Weisser blinked.

"Believe in the fairy tale of the princess and the knight." Diya smiled.

"I also believe that every love will have a happy ending." Sonia had a complicated expression.

"So Felix," Ash smiled, "I'm sorry, I may not be able to meet your expectations."

The darkness fell into silence, and after a long while, a faint sigh was heard: "It is so."

"But in this case, Ash will become the biggest destabilizing factor." Felix said, "If you continue to be distracted, you may tempt Sword Princess and the others to fall and ruin the good situation that we have worked so hard to achieve. Even if you want to refuse, you don't have the strength to protect yourself."

You are late, everyone thought.

"So in order to maintain the current atmosphere, I want to give you some... gifts."

"You should have received it when you opened the miracle bracelet."

Ash turned on the miracle bracelet he used to watch dramas. A dim light screen emerged in the darkness. There was a new prompt inside: "The Duke wants to pair up with you." He clicked to confirm, and then received a photo sent by Felix.

The blonde girl sat on the bed in a tight nun's uniform. Her black stockings slightly tightened her thighs, which complemented her short skirt. Her chest was soft and only covered by two white silk strips, as if it would be uncovered by the wind...

Ash couldn't hold it anymore and subconsciously scrolled to the next photo, only to see a blonde girl tied up in mid-air with ropes, her body outline perfectly displayed...

Ash decisively turned off the light curtain: "Where did you get the nun's uniform? And how did you tie yourself up!?"

"The clothes are just a water magic illusion. I changed the color a little. The rope is a wind magic miracle. I just made it visible." Felix said nervously, "How is it? Does it look good?"

Ash couldn't go against his conscience: "It looks good, very good, but why did you--"

"I'm just worried that you'll be devoured by desire and turn into a beast, and then take the initiative to defile Sword Princess and the others." Felix breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The smell here also proves that you do have the potential to become a beast."

"So I thought... as long as I exhaust your desire in advance, Sword Princess and the others will be safe. But according to the rules, I won't touch you, and I don't want to touch you, so this is the only way."

Felix seemed a little embarrassed, and his voice became lower and lower: "You can use these photos normally. I have no objection."

"If you have any special requests, such as clothing, poses, hairstyles, etc., you can put forward them, and I will try my best to meet your requirements. If you want to see a video... as long as it is not too extreme, I can shoot it for you."

"But you have to promise not to attack Sword Princess and the others, and let them train well, okay?"

The corners of Ash's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help asking, "But why did you do this? Do you... like Sword Princess and the others very much?"

"There is one thing. I really don't want to see an excellent female magician being delayed by you." Felix said, "Also, I have already boarded your pirate ship and attacked my ancestors. I can't turn back. I also hope that the overall combat power of the team can be higher and higher. Everyone should train well instead of competing for your favor."

"Rather than letting a rubbish like you defile them and affect their development..." Felix lowered his head and said, "It's better for me to sacrifice myself."
