"That's right." An Nan sat next to Ash, not sure whether to hide the embarrassment or to help Ash make up for it: "They are all in the trial."

Ash glanced at her and said, "We lived in Azula for half a month before... in the funeral office."

"Then remember to give me half a month's rent."

"You're so stingy... I did some research during that time and found that you did a lot of things in that year, including reforming the systems of the various consortium cities in Fanmu La and Mengfei La, guiding organizations to reduce their dependence on the Gospel system, and timely investing resources in the technological wave brought about by the concept of the Void Gate." Ash said: "In the year since I left, Gospel has undergone great changes."

"It's not all my credit," An Nan said, "some of it is due to Diya's foresight... As long as Her Majesty works hard, she can govern this country well."

"But now that the five countries have united, you are not only facing domestic conservative forces and corruption in the bureaucracy, but also challenges from the other four countries. This is a major change that has not happened in a thousand years. You can't find any examples in history books. You can only grow rapidly in the competition... Are you sure you want to continue?"

"What's the meaning?"

Ash pulled with his fingers, and an illusory chain connected from Annan's collar to his hand. "This is a soul miracle I invented. It can not only suppress the blessing of the stars, but also remove the blessing of the stars from your souls. But if you still want to continue to be in charge of the Gospel Kingdom, you can't remove the blessing of the stars. After all, you are one of the highest leaders of the Gospel, and the Stars are likely to focus on your blessing of the stars."

Annan and other Gospel ruling classes have already implanted the Blessing of the Stars, so Ash borrowed the Soul Locking Spirit from Vichy early on, and invented the miracle 'Dawn Soul Lock' based on the prototype of 'Ruby Chain'. In fact, this is not a binding miracle, but a soul healing miracle. During the existence of the Dawn Soul Lock, the bound soul will always remain pure, suppressing all the influence of the miracle curse, and naturally will not be brainwashed by the Blessing of the Stars.

He was confident that suppressing the Blessing of the Stars would not attract attention, but removing it would be tantamount to provoking the starry aristocracy system. In any case, An Nan would not be able to continue to serve as the chief witch of the Gospel.

"Before we leave, you can consider whether to remove the Blessing of the Stars. If you want to remove it--"

"I can answer you now." An Nan said seriously: "I want to stay in Gospel and be the chief witch. I have my career here... I will not give up even if I have to bear the blessing of the stars."

Ash smiled softly, stood up and said, "I think so."

"But if you do this, you will have to be involved in an unprecedented five-nation competition. Are you confident that you can win this national game?"

"I can't guarantee that I can win." An Nan put his hands together, his eyes sharp: "I can only guarantee that I will never lose."

Ash looked at the purple moth in front of him and recalled the first night he came to Gospel, when Annan confidently told them that she was going to blaspheme Gospel. At that time, she was so arrogant and insolent, treating life as an interesting game, willing to give everything to achieve the craziest achievements. After becoming a witch, Annan restrained her arrogance, but at this moment, Ash found that she still treated life as a game, but it was no longer a role-playing game, but a national management game... The flame in her eyes, what unprecedented great achievement was she going to ignite?

"Give me your hand."

An Nan didn't understand why and spread out her palm. Ya Xiu quietly mobilized the power of longing and drew a moth pattern on the back of her hand. As the longing was engraved, An Nan found that her connection with the Purple Resentment Hidden Concubine Dragon became closer.

"You are now a legendary magician. Theoretically, there will be no one in the world who can harm you. But if other countries can't afford to play, or if angels come to find you, you can activate this mark... I will definitely come here if I can."

Ash patted the back of her hand gently and said, "Keep going, young lady. From now on, I will still be your strongest supporter. This should be enough as rent, right?"

Yaxiu emphasized the word "firm". An Nan looked up thoughtfully, but saw that Yaxiu turned his head away and didn't look at her. This bastard, An Nan thought, his first kiss was obviously mine, but now he refuses to kiss me or say anything nice. He even beats around the bush when expressing his feelings. Does he think I don't like to hear sweet words of love?

But... this one isn't bad either.

"Not enough. Far from enough."

"Ah?" Ash was startled.

"I'll accept this for now." An Nan took his hand and put it to her lips, smiling, "But what I really want is a country, a paradise where I can paint as much as I want."

"When I get tired of the gospel, you have to find me a better toy, such as... your heaven."

…

An Nan walked briskly back to the witch's confidential room, where Qinna and Nona were chatting. As soon as she came back, she said, "Think of a reason to seal off the palace. We don't know how long Ash and the others will stay here, so no one can see them during this time."

"Spread the rumor that the chief witch is pregnant, and no one will dare to question it for the next ten months." Qinna said lazily, leaning against the chair: "Of course, it doesn't matter if it's not a rumor."

An Nan glanced at her sideways. She was in a good mood now and was not angry at all.

"Let's say I used the secret technique of the Isu Palace to fight against the legendary magician of Blood Moon. In the next period of time, I need to repair the palace's miracle rituals." Nona kept up with current affairs and gave a very reasonable idea.

"Then you, Seat 7, will be in charge."

An Nan sat in his chair, propped up his chin and stared at Qin Na, "I didn't expect you would do something human occasionally."

Qinna raised her eyebrows: "Hmm?"

An Nan briefly talked about the conversation between Yaxiu and Qinna, and finally added with a blush: "I thought you really went to him to suggest that I and you and him... I even asked him to confirm it."

The Elf Chief raised his eyebrows, with a rather amused expression on his face: "Is that all Ash told you?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?" An Nan was startled, and a bad thought suddenly popped up in his mind: "You really proposed it to him!?"

“Not really.”

An Nan breathed a sigh of relief: "I knew you weren't that outrageous... So what did you say?"

Qinna spread her hands: "You know that Nona and I can also share senses, so what I propose is that you, Nona and I will work together--"

"Qina!" "Sister!" An Nan and Nona stood up at the same time, roaring.

The Elf Chief tapped his lips and chuckled, "By the way, his eyes and expression showed no sign of objection..."

…

…

It seems that fulfilling their wishes is the key to passing the trial.

Finally finding the clue to pass the trial, Ash relaxed and walked briskly to the palace of others. Although Diya had not passed the trial yet, at least she was no longer in pain, and this alone was worth Ash's success in carving the witch.

Perhaps they have to fulfill the wishes of Sword Lady and Vichy before the three of them can pass the Six-Wing Trial together.

At this moment, Ash heard Felix's nervous pleading voice coming from the corner in front, "Sister Vichy, please don't be like this, come back with me, okay..."

Turning the corner, Ash saw Felix kneeling on the ground, at a loss, and in front of her was the ghost prophet crawling on the carpet. Vichy was wearing pajamas and her hair was disheveled. She had lost her former elegance and looked as miserable as a sick snake crawling in the dark. But just by looking at her shaking shoulders and the cold sweat on her face, you could tell how much pain she was in.

Ash went over and grabbed her hands, and the first thing Vichy said when she saw him was: "Sword Princess or Witch?"

Ash was stunned and replied: "Witch. I found a way to help her pass the trial, but how did you know--"

"What is the solution?"

"She wanted to go home, so I took her home, and then her condition improved." Ash said, "The key to this trial is probably to find a way to fulfill your wishes, but you are ill and can't do it, so I have to help you fulfill it... What is your wish?"

Vichy supported herself on Ash with both hands to avoid falling down, breathing shallowly and rapidly, and seemed to be exhausted. Ash took Felix's towel, wiped the cold sweat off Vichy's forehead, and sat on the ground holding her in his arms.

After a while, Wei Xi slowly shook his head: "I don't have any wishes. Your method doesn't work for me."

Ash looked at her and realized something in his heart: "Do you have other ideas?"

Vichy nodded and whispered weakly, "I have a way to pass the trial on my own... You just need to please your sword witch, and I only need a little... a little help from you."

"What help?"

She raised her head and looked into Ash's eyes, "Unchain me."
