In the shimring flow of green light, Vera’s figure completely unfurled.
Three erald green Divine Rings slowly rotated behind her, emanating mysterious natural law waves.
After completing her advancent, Vera slowly opened her eyes, her jade-like pupils filled with vibrant vitality.
She gently raised her hand, and the vines spread throughout the space retreated like tides, turning into green specks that dissolved into her palm.
With one step forward, Vera’s figure suddenly appeared before Aster Grant.
The distance between them was close enough to feel each other’s breath.
Seeing Vera so close, Aster Grant was montarily in a daze.
"Master~"
Vera suddenly stretched out her slender fingers, gently lifting Aster Grant’s chin.
In her complete form, she was similar in height to Aster and was slightly floating, allowing her to gaze directly into his eyes.
Those erald eyes stared straight into Aster’s, carrying an unprecedented assertiveness:
"Do you like like this?"
Aster was montarily speechless.
Having grown accustod to Vera’s younger form, he was sowhat at a loss facing the sudden display of a mature aura from the elf.
Under Vera’s burning gaze, he awkwardly turned his head to the side, a faint red creeping up his ears.
This reaction made Vera’s lips curl into a mischievous arch.
She suddenly realized...
That her master seed even more helpless against her mature form?
"Looks like I’ll have to use this form more often from now on..."
Vera mused inwardly, her eyes full of deeper amusent.
Nearby, Scarlett witnessed this scene, her eyes widening instantly.
She hurriedly turned and grabbed Veridia’s sleeve, lowering her voice urgently:
"Sis! Why are you still standing there? Master is being teased by that elf!"
Veridia looked bewildered:
"Teased? Isn’t Vera also Master’s Beastbond?"
Seeing her sister remaining clueless, Scarlett stomped her feet in frustration.
She leaned closer to Veridia’s ear and explained the situation in the simplest terms:
"Think about it, Sis. If Master is won over by that elf, won’t our status drop drastically? We’ll end up with all the exhausting chores!"
"Most importantly, what if Master doesn’t want us anymore under that elf’s spell?"
While speaking, Scarlett sneakily glanced in Vera’s direction.
The mory of being tied up with vines, mouth stuffed with a thick, long vine still vivid.
If that vengeful elf overheard her criticizing her, especially now with increased strength...
The thought alone gave Scarlett an involuntary shiver.
But her words did seem to trigger Veridia.
Although she firmly believed Aster wouldn’t favor one over the other, that elf’s tactics...
Recalling Vera’s usual cunning display of innocence, Veridia’s gaze turned sharp.
"No way!"
Veridia gritted her teeth, quickly firming her resolve.
This scheming elf must not be allowed to succeed!
At this mont, Vera was gazing at Aster with his chin lifted, her eyes involuntarily settling on his slightly pursed lips.
A bold idea crazily burgeoned within her mind...
The master seed startled by her appearance, why not seize this mont...
A trace of determination appeared in her eyes as she slightly raised onto her toes, preparing to act.
Inside the Beastbond Space, Lazuli nearly exploded with rage upon seeing this scene.
Her fists clenched tightly, uncontrollable crimson Fire of Destruction erupting around her.
Lilith noticed and discreetly edged away.
Even at Monarch Tier Five, she had to fiercely avoid such flas.
Watching Lazuli’s deanor, though, she couldn’t help jesting:
"Isn’t this sowing chaos upon oneself?"
Because a Beastbond needs the master’s permission to exit the Beastbond Space.
And Lazuli had deliberately feigned injury, resulting in...
Aster preventing Lazuli from leaving the Beastbond Space during the Sanctum period.
Which was now why Lazuli could only watch the elf making her moves in anger.
"You!"
Lazuli spun around, flas of fury ablaze in her golden eyes.
But seeing Lilith wisely raise her hands in surrender, she turned her sight back to the outside.
Only to be further inflad!
The accursed elf dared to steal her master’s first kiss?!
"Boom—!"
Raging Fire of Destruction engulfed the entire Beastbond Space.
Lilith quickly raised a blood-red shield to protect herself, filled with silent awe:
Lazuli’s prowess when enraged...
Absolutely terrifying!
Most unfortunate was the Tree of Life in the center of the Beastbond Space.
Under the ravage of the Fire of Destruction, it curled its branches into a ball, desperately releasing Life Energy to forge a barrier, trembling in resistance against this unprovoked disaster...
Outside.
A sudden, strange chill climbed from her spine, causing Vera’s body to shiver.
But she was entirely dazzled by the charm of Aster now...
An arrow at the ready, it had to go forth!
As she closed her eyes, nearing Aster.
"Clap!"
A soft sound, a hand entwined with Ghost Qi suddenly ca between her and Aster.
As Vera’s lips touched that icy surface, her eyes snapped open.
Veridia was disdainfully flicking the back of her hand, faint watermark clinging to it.
This unexpected twist finally brought Aster back to his senses.
Realizing he was almost forcefully kissed by his own Beastbond just now?!
Not to ntion Vera being particularly bold today, quite out of character.
Aster quickly pulled up the system panel to check:
[Life Spirit (Vera)]
[Talent: Myth Five Stars→Myth Nine Stars]
[Level: Commander Tier Nine]
[Status: Mating Period (due to Heart of Nature defect)]
[Power: 50000→60000 (MAX)]
[Constitution: 50000→60000 (MAX)]
[Spiritual: 60000→80000 (MAX)]
[Speed: 50000→60000 (MAX)]
[Skills: Life Spirit (including Natural Lant, Elf Monarchy, Lifebloom, etc.), Reincarnation, Life Domain, Law of Life]
Seeing Vera’s attributes, Aster was sowhat lost in thought.
The most striking was the status labeled "Mating Period" in Vera’s column!
Although Vera maintained a humanoid form, Beastbond indeed had this biological cycle.
Aster was aware of this common knowledge.
While reviewing the Heart of Nature’s description, the system indeed ntioned this material had a "slight defect"...
Specifically stating it wouldn’t affect talent improvent effects, so he paid little mind.
But he never thought the so-called "side effect" would lead Vera to enter Mating Period prematurely!
However, after thoroughly examining the system description, Aster was relieved.
This state would rely amplify Vera’s emotional impulses, particularly causing her to act out of line in intimate situations, without real harm.
He now realized that Vera’s bizarre behavior earlier...
Was likely influenced by this defect-induced Mating Period!
