Heath is the dagger crafted by the Gods of Four Pillars for the Magic Master of the Dazzling Star!
He himself is a divine artifact!
Ash pondered for a while, gradually relaxing his whole body, "Thank you."
"It’s the duty of an assistant to relieve your worries," Rose said calmly.
It was then Ash noticed he was unknowingly leaning back against the chair, his head lightly resting on two soft mounds. Yet, he had no romantic thoughts, only feeling completely at ease, all his worries swept away.
Actually, even if one has social resources, dealing with a Legendary Mage is never simple, after all, the latter isn’t a fool, and there’s an important question here: How can he exploit his ho advantage?
But the answer to this question was standing right behind Ash.
As Ash Heath’s assistant, Rose could coordinate all his resources, perfectly implenting all of Ash’s illicit intents. If Heath was the dagger aid at the Magic Master of the Dazzling Star, then Rose was the sheath maintaining the dagger.
And intriguingly, Rose gained Ash’s trust in just one day, even the suspicious Swindler deed her a ’useful tool.’
Ash didn’t even need to spend ti adjusting to the New World, quickly finding Harvey and Igula in Allstars, eting ’Death Mad’ Nia within half a day, and even capturing a maid at night, all thanks to Rose’s significant contribution.
Without Rose, Ash would have spent a lot of ti just being introverted.
Ash never thought he’d open up to soone he’d known for less than a day. Typically, these ntal consultations were handled by Igula, and even the Sword Witch might not qualify—he didn’t want to expose his weak side to soone he liked.
"Even though you’re my assistant, is your care for also because of your childhood bond with Heath?"
Rose noncommittally replied, "Perhaps."
Ash asked, "Did Heath treat you well as a child, so you want to repay him as you grow up?"
"Not at all, I usually protected him as a child," Rose gently ruffled Ash’s hair, "I’m three years older than him."
"Until he suddenly claid he was ’from the Blood Moon,’ he was always an unlucky child, getting beaten on the street, hit by cars when going out, even funeral coffin lids would unexpectedly slide towards him."
"Compared to back then, being your assistant isn’t very difficult."
Ash had an epiphany, "So you consider your family, you’re my older sister, and that’s why you’re so caring?"
"No, no." Rose shook her head, "Our relationship is purely financial, very clean, none of that stuff."
Ash felt a bit confused, but relieved by Rose’s words. If Rose truly saw him as family, he wouldn’t know how to interact with her—he wasn’t really Heath, nor would he stay there long, and Rose was just the projection of a real entity.
Thinking of this, Ash looked up at Rose, "You haven’t dyed your hair or had costic surgery, right?"
"No, why?"
"Nothing, I’m just surprised I didn’t recognize you in another world," Ash thought role-playing made for convenient conversation: "I used to think the connections in the Kingdom of Allstars stemd from real projections, but my relationship with you shatters that guess. I never had an older sister who cared for like you."
"I’m not your sister; we’re just professional associates," Rose corrected.
"Hmm, hmm, hmm."
...
...
"He is the sense of touch born for the Dazzling Star, and I was born to be his companion."
Dedarose smiled warmly, "Years ago, under the Goddess of the Four Pillars, we forged eternal bonds, our destinies entwined like a spiral."
"So now, please step aside, the Four Pillars God Sect will take good care of him and his companions."
Facing her idol since childhood, Sonia narrowed her eyes slightly, her moist, cute cherry lips softly uttered a word:
"Scram."
Whoosh.
The room suddenly filled with wind, the turbulent magic power wave tearing the serene atmosphere, as Felix stood trembling at the door. On one side was the red-haired ponytailed Sword Maiden, on the other was the deep blue-haired Songstress, with starlight seemingly dividing into two camps for them, the invisible killing intent causing the glass windows to vibrate and tremble.
Felix thought to herself that this house was dood to be torn apart, but the issue is, the spoils of your battle is the man on the bed!
She wished she could capture this scene and share it with the Claw Club and Bite You Club fan groups, letting fans know these two most celebrated independent won of the Kingdom of Stars were fighting over an ordinary man!
Really, was this man made of gold, was it worth it? Thinking so, Felix glanced at Ash on the bed, dressed in her clothes, and annoyingly, he wore them just a bit more dashingly than she did...
"I can offer you everything you want," Dedarose said softly, "Fa, resources, social status, and the ritual to free yourself from the Stars Blessing. If you wish, I can promote you to Marquis right now, without any Star Cluster restrictions, yet with all the benefits of the Stars Blessing."
"Of course, if you’re interested, I can even make you a national star; though you might not reach my heights, I can voluntarily retire from the lilight to give you space to grow."
"You should know Ash is the Legendary Mage sought in the Throne Hall search, staying with him only brings endless trouble. However, handing him over to ensures his safety and grants you endless benefits," Dedarose’s voice softened further, sincerely gazing at the Sword Maiden, "If you truly like Ash, then you should consider more for him."
"There’s a love called letting go."
"Moreover, the Four Pillars God Sect cannot possibly control him. If he awakens and wants to find you, how can we stop a Legendary Mage? Separated for a better reunion, or do you think your feelings are that fragile?"
The Village Girl quietly watched the most beautiful woman under the starry sky, suddenly smiled: "True to the idol I admire the most."
"Entice with profit, persuade with reason, move with emotion, incite with faith, for a mont, I almost wavered."
"But you know, I’m a Village Girl from a remote village, perpetually having a short-sighted small citizen mindset."
Dedarose’s smile gradually faded: "So?"
"So we hold tightly to the happiness in our hands." The Claw Sword Saint’s eyes glistened with blood as she spoke each word firmly: "No one can take him from , not even Death can separate us."
"I’ve made my choice, now it’s your turn." Sonia lightly placed her left hand on the sword hilt, "Kill , or be killed by ."
Felix’s legs went weak, turning her head to the hallway, thinking she’d flee the battlefield once the fight began.
"Sonia Sevi, you’ve left no choice," Dedarose said calmly, "But the Four Pillars God decree must be executed, I can only...""
"...invite you to join the Four Pillars God Sect."
