Chapter 1229: Chapter 895: White Bull’s Flash-Tinted Resilient Tail
“It’s her fault!”
“It’s my fault!”
Ash and Vishi quickly said, Filly hurried over to pull Rose back to her seat, stuffing the suitcase back in, and managed to persuade Rose to give Ash another chance.
Vishi helped Ash back into the wheelchair, and Ash took the opportunity to grab her wrist.
“No need to rush; I’ll repay you properly when we’re back in the bedroom.” Vishi feigned shyness: “Master, your lower back isn’t in good shape now. I’ll be a good female knight.”
“I’m just temporarily leaving the feather with you. As long as I wish, I can take it back at any ti.” Ash said seriously: “This not only doesn’t an I trust you; on the contrary, I’ll be watching you with more scrutiny. Once you make an unforgivable mistake, the punishnt won’t just be peeling grapes, Vishi.”
Vishi looked at Ash for a mont, then suddenly grasped his hand and said sincerely: “Ash, I won’t disappoint your expectations. I know, regardless of my reputation or my actions, you wouldn’t dare trust . In fact, I’ve long gotten used to living in a mire of suspicion.”
“I don’t think you’re wrong either; if our roles were reversed, I might have been even more ruthless. But even as I am, you still give a chance to prove myself, willing to see as a mage with personality, not just a disposable tool. I may never beco a good person, but under your constraints, I might really be able to, to…”
By the end, Vishi was already sobbing uncontrollably, crouching down and burying herself in Ash’s arms, like a nun confessing to her lord.
Ash hesitated slightly, but he still reached out to stroke the bare back exposed by her maid outfit: “Vishi…”
“Were you looking forward to saying that?”
Vishi suddenly lifted her head, cupping Ash’s face with both hands, her face showing not a hint of remorse but full of triumphant mischief: “A little act of kindness successfully bringing the fierce Ghost Prophet under your command, isn’t this script satisfying, Master?”
“At least use the term ‘under my command’ correctly!” Ash was furious.
“Exploiting all of a slave’s production value, then giving back a portion as a reward to ensure their loyalty… I once established a force in hell as a demigod; do you really think your crude little tricks can deceive ?” Vishi said disdainfully: “Even the Divine Lord couldn’t command my true loyalty, do you think you can control ?”
“You’re increasingly making think I’ve made a wrong decision.” Ash brushed off her hands, “I never intended for you to be loyal to , nor do I have any subordinates. Relationships between people aren’t just hierarchical.”
“If you don’t have subordinates, then what are those two?” Vishi pointed to Igula and Harvey: “I don’t think they can fill the role of pets well, not even as well as Filly.”
“Not at all, not at all.” Filly quickly denied, “I’m far inferior to Mr. Igula and Mr. Harvey—”
“Filly, she’s insulting you, ignore her!” Ash said exasperatedly.
“If you don’t want to take as a subordinate, then what exactly do you wish for to be?”
Vishi asked: “A pet? A tool? A blade? A bed companion? A prophet?”
Ash looked at her blankly, suddenly feeling a bit disinterested, and waved his hand, saying: “I have nothing to say to you, just do your job as a maid.”
“Alright, I’ll go to the kitchen to prepare afternoon tea then.”
The maid cleaned up the trash on the glass coffee table and turned to head toward the kitchen on the first floor.
Midway, she suddenly stopped, “By the way, Master, there’s sothing I need to tell you.”
“Hmm?”
Vishi turned her head slightly to look back and said: “Thank you for saving too, Ash. Without you, I wouldn’t have survived.”
Ash was slightly taken aback, then he smiled and said: “Mm.”
“But overall, I’ve saved you more, so you still owe —”
“Get lost.” Ash directly grabbed the waterlon rind from Filly and threw it over, Vishi deftly caught it with the tray, winked at him, her brows and eyes curved into a crescent-moon smile, as she joyfully walked into the kitchen.
Igula and Harvey exchanged glances, seeing Harvey nod, Igula sighed.
“When did you evolve to communicate without speaking?” Ash asked.
“It’s nothing, just that when even Harvey can see sothing, it usually can’t be changed.” Igula said: “Do our feathers also need to converge together? Just retaining the Flash Feathers for Harvey and is enough.”
“No need.” Ash said: “My combat power isn’t tied to the Void Wings, in Observer Mode, I can’t cast spells at all; if it’s Vishi’s maid mode, my combat power here is already excessive, so an extra feather or two doesn’t make a difference.”
After Vishi and Filly beca his divine beings, the wonders he constructed in the Kingdom of Allstars were nearly a dinsional reduction of power. Those he could hit were assuredly dood, and those he couldn’t hit, no matter how much strength he added, still couldn’t be reached.
“Now there are three feathers in the golden fish scales.” Ash continued: “We can split them evenly—”
“No.”
“No way.”
Hearing Igula and Harvey simultaneously object, Ash was stunned: “Why not?”
“Isn’t that the apology gift you left for the Sword Witch?” Igula said.
“It’s just a gift; I haven’t decided if it’s for an apology yet!” Ash said: “But the upcoming Angel Hunt will be more dangerous, we can temporarily borrow them, and I’ll take them back once we’re back to reality.”
“But what if we die?” Harvey asked.
“You’re really reminding ,” Ash said exasperatedly: “Then just make sure you survive for , alright?”
“Now both Harvey and I have four feathers each, adding one more isn’t really significant, it’s not like the difference between having none and having so.” Igula said: “But if you save these three reserve feathers, then if you need them, you can use them imdiately. Compared to an average enhancent, a card that effectively boosts combat strength is more crucial.”
Igula’s reasoning made sense, so Ash dismissed the idea, and continued: “Then the next is the final phase of dividing the spoils.”
“There’s more?” Igula was startled.
Ash pulled out a brilliantly shining Seven-colored Tail from his bosom.
“If you want to alter the color of the Seventh Void Wing, or transform colored feathers into Flash Feathers, I can do it.” He said, “I can even upgrade your technique spirits, though there’s a side effect.”
“What!?”
Vishi imdiately burst out of the kitchen, not even wiping the cream she was stealthily eating off her mouth: “You can transform colored feathers into Flash Feathers? How is that possible!”
“It’s true.” Ash shook the Seven-colored Tail in his hand, “Because this is the White Bull’s Seven-colored Tail.”

Upon waking up today, Ash opened the Aurora’s Mage Manual as usual to check on the Sword Witch’s situation. Seeing that their artwork hadn’t changed, he was relieved, and then checked the “Operator Search” for any new card pools, finding none, he was about to exit.
At that mont, the ga suddenly popped up with a ssage: “Rare resource detected, would you like to process it into a rare treasure?”
At that ti, Ash hadn’t fully woken up and absentmindedly clicked confirm. By the ti he realized what he’d done—if the ga had tinkered with pivotal technique spirits like Heart Sword or Emotion Sword, even if they were replaced with better technique spirits, his existing spirit system would collapse!
Ash couldn’t even summon new technique spirits, Vishi had tried long ago, the Mysterious Chains of the Kingdom of Allstars would forbid the birth of technique spirits, or Vishi would have already reassembled a set of soul spirits just by killing.
He quickly checked his soul through inner vision and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, not a single technique spirit was missing; the rare resource taken by the Mage’s Handbook was rely the Flash Feather… Flash Feather!?
Even without having heard Vishi’s lecture then, Ash was quite certain that the Flash Feather was the most valuable loot from this adventure, and it inadvertently got loaded into the Mage’s Handbook?
However, when Ash looked at the ga interface with an expression of frustration, he was imdiately stunned by the ssage that popped up:
“Processing complete.”
“You obtained ‘White Bull’s Flash Tempered Tail.’
‘White Bull’s Flash Tempered Tail’
‘Coloring: Consus 1 Source Crystal to repaint the target’s Knowledge Feather to another color.’
‘Flash: Consus 3 Source Crystals to repaint the target’s Knowledge Feather to Flash Color.’
‘Four Color Pollution: The tempered tail has four colors polluted. Using these four colors to paint a technique spirit can upgrade any technique spirit to four-winged status, but the spirit’s personality will switch between manic brutality/split personality/cold-bloodedly cruel/playfully perverse.’
‘Note: The severed end of the tempered tail is very smooth, as if it was cut off. There are four colors on it stained with other hues, Sword Color stained purple-red, Ti Color stained black and white, Truth Color stained silver, Prophecy Color stained dark blue.’
