Seeing that Natalia was still standing there in a daze, Eros bent down, picked her up, and walked towards the stairs of the basement entrance.
Natalia almost screamed when she was suddenly picked up, but fortunately she controlled herself at the critical moment and did not make any sound.
When they reached the entrance to the basement, Natalia buried her red face in Eros's arms and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito:
"Can this punishment be postponed? Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow is fine."
"Can we not do this now, not here..."
Eros raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile:
"No, this matter must be resolved now."
After a long time, Natalia's delicate back pressed against the hard, cold stone wall.
The wooden door of the basement entrance was very close. Staying in this place, she felt as if she could hear Aisha's breathing outside the door.
That is why Natalia tried her best to control herself and not make any sound.
So much so that Ayesha, who was sitting outside the door of the basement, knew nothing about it.
There was only one door between them.
After a long time, Natalia, dressed neatly again and with sweat dripping on her fair forehead, stood in the ritual formation and prepared to be promoted.
Eros leaned against the stone wall nearby and watched.
Natalia, who was in the center of the ritual formation, took a deep breath and activated the auxiliary ritual formation on the ground.
Then she took out the potion that she had prepared long ago, as well as the profane fire that Eros had just given her.
After Natalia drank the potion in one gulp, she immediately extended a wisp of her consciousness to touch the blasphemous fire in her hand, hoping to use it to ignite the spiritual fire.
The process went smoothly, and in just half an hour, Natalia successfully ignited the spiritual fire and advanced to Sequence 6.
Feeling the surging power in her body, Natalia slowly turned her gaze towards Eros who was leaning against the stone wall, her eyes filled with emotion.
This time, she was promoted again without suffering any strange erosion. It seemed that he had used the so-called family secret method again.
If it weren’t for the help of this secret technique, she was sure that it would not be so easy for her to advance to Sequence 6.
As we all know, the biggest threat to promotion does not come from the crazy consciousness remaining in the potion, but from the strange erosion from the spiritual world.
If the strange erosion can be avoided, the risk of promotion will be reduced by at least 80%.
As expected of an ancient family that once gave birth to gods, their heritage is indeed profound. They even have this secret method that can be carried around at will to isolate themselves from the weirdness.
"Thanks!"
Natalia walked up to Eros and thanked him softly.
Eros chuckled and said, "We're all family now, what are you thanking me for?"
Natalia pursed her lips but did not refute Eros' words.
Seeing this, Eros reached out and took Natalia's hand and said:
"I've already promoted you halfway through, there's no reason for you to escape now, right?"
After hearing this, Natalia lowered her head and said nothing.
After this kind of thing happens the first time, it becomes much easier the second time.
After a while, next to the door at the basement exit.
Just as Natalia held her breath and waited for what would happen next.
The sudden pain in her body made her eyes widen.
Even though she had tried her best to control herself, she still couldn't help but let out a cry of pain.
Outside the door of the basement entrance, Ayesha, who was sitting on a small stool, heard her mother's cry of pain and immediately stood up from the stool, her little face full of tension and worry.
She really wanted to ask about her mother's current situation, but she was afraid that speaking would disturb her mother's promotion.
So she could only pace back and forth while listening to her mother screaming in pain from the basement.
After a while, the noise coming from the basement stopped.
Ayesha was startled and quickly focused her attention, listening carefully to the movements inside the basement.
But as she listened, Ayesha's little face wrinkled.
Why does my mother keep making such noises?
With doubts in her heart, Aisha waited anxiously outside the door for more than half an hour.
But later, when she heard that the noise coming from inside not only did not stop but became more and more intense, a sense of panic arose in her heart.
She suddenly thought of a possibility. Could it be that her mother failed in her promotion and then transformed into a monster with tentacles?
This would easily explain why there was a constant sound of slapping walls in the basement, because that was the sound of the dancing tentacles accidentally hitting the walls.
Thinking of this possibility, Ayesha's heart almost stopped and tears began to fall uncontrollably from her beautiful big eyes.
She sniffed, no longer worrying about whether she would disturb her mother inside, and shouted with a choked voice:
"Mom! How are you now? I'm coming in!"
Having said that, Ayesha was about to push the door open.
At this moment, Natalia's exclamation came from inside the door:
"Don't!"
But it was too late, the door had already been pushed open.
Time goes back to the past. In the basement, Eros whispered in Natalia's ear:
"Ayesha seemed to have heard your voice."
Hearing Eros' words, Natalia blamed him with a somewhat shameful tone:
"It's all your fault! How could you do this..."
Looking at Natalia's ashamed and angry expression, Eros said with a hint of smile in his tone:
"Don't worry, she won't think too much about it."
Hearing this, the panicked look on Natalia's face relaxed a little.
But later, after hearing the footsteps outside the door, Natalia showed a look of shame on her face.
Ayesha was so worried about me outside, but I was...
It was too late to say anything now, she could only try her best to cooperate so that this farce would end as soon as possible.
But at the most critical moment, she suddenly heard Ayesha outside the door saying that she was going to come in.
Natalia's pupils shrank suddenly and she immediately screamed.
[It feels a bit dangerous, why not change it! ]
