"Demon Sound Knowledge: Gun technique, Mind, Transcendental Insight."
"Demon Dragon Abyss: Heavy Axe, unrivaled destructive power."
"Demon Ruin: Fist Claw, invincible divine power throughout the body."
"Demon Ye Jian: Unknown, but capable of condensing the Dull Holy Grail with a boy’s body, more dangerous than other demons."
On the second day after the Distant Realm disappeared, at Rose’s villa, Ash and the others, who had rested for a night, finally started sorting out intelligence.
Looking at the information on the whiteboard, Ash was quite worried. Even without borrowing the power of mages, these demons possessed extraordinary combat power. How could they deal with them? Moreover, they’ve drunk the Dull Holy Grail. Wouldn’t they beco stronger the next ti they et? Although they seed to compete with each other, they had consensus on certain matters. Wouldn’t they join forces?
Many problems lingered in Ash’s mind. He needed more professional advice.
Igula said seriously, "... In summary, I think the probability of Sword Maiden monopolizing is the greatest."
Vishi had a different opinion: "I have more confidence in iwa. She gradually grows into the most beautiful image in Ash’s eyes. Even if Ash’s aesthetics change, she will follow suit, so even if Ash gets tired of Sword Maiden, he will never tire of iwa. However, iwa doesn’t seem to mind Ash ssing around, so the final result should be that Ash loves iwa most, but maintains connections with everyone."
Harvey said, "I think Hanna, Tamasi, Filly, and Nia are the most suitable."
"Don’t drag into this!" Nia stood up abruptly, "And don’t group with other won either!"
"Nia, Nia." Filly quickly pulled Nia down, "Ignore them, I’ll continue applying nail polish for you."
"I don’t want to... my feet aren’t pretty!"
"Nail polish can protect the nails. We train so frequently, we need to take good care. Besides, your foot shape is nice; it will look good painted."
At this mont, both Filly and Nia were in pajamas. They stayed at the villa directly upon returning last night. Everyone was too tired to move, and they only took a bath after waking up this morning.
Igula glanced at Harvey, shaking his head: "I have no intention of discrimination, but Harvey, do you understand won? I’ll repeat it: I’m not saying there’s sothing wrong with your brain, but can you really understand love between humans? And why those four in particular?"
"Because I only know them." Harvey said honestly, "And I think Ash also likes them, so they’re suitable."
Filly and Nia, who had been a bit angry, couldn’t help but glance over—it wouldn’t an much if Vishi or Igula said Ash liked them.
But the one speaking was the Corpse Lover, Harvey!
This dull-minded corpse enthusiast could see that Ash liked them? It wasn’t his good observation; it could only be that Ash’s behavior in front of him was too obvious!
But this ti, Igula poured cold water over them in ti: "How do you judge who Ash likes?"
Harvey raised two fingers: "Female, alive."
Vishi let out a snort, struggling to hold down her mouth and belly, but still couldn’t help but laugh out loud on the sofa.
However, Harvey thought for a mont and added, "Truly likes Ash."
Upon hearing this, everyone was slightly taken aback, looking at the necromancer in surprise. Igula smiled: "Now you know what true affection is... But, by that logic, why not choose Lissdia? Lissdia also participated in the first love war."
Harvey blinked, then imdiately showed a disgusted expression: "Ash, Liss is still a child. You’re too much of a pervert!"
"I’d rather not be called a pervert by you!" Ash scratched his head, almost going crazy, "And it’s Diya who likes , not Liss. Diya is an adult woman, a year older than Sword Maiden... Why am I even explaining this! Let’s return to the main topic, no more discussing my love life!"
Ash hadn’t yet had a psychological counseling session with Igula, so this information wasn’t leaked by him. But the problem was, not only was Vishi present to witness the five-person brawl, but more importantly, Filly and Nia had traveled with Sword Maiden and iwa for a while, and with just a little wordplay from Igula and Vishi, they truthfully divulged all of Ash’s girlfriends’ information.
"But discussing these four demons doesn’t lead anywhere. It’s much more valuable to discuss your eight love interests." Vishi licked her lollypop, "Currently, there are eight."
"There are eight for now." Igula corrected seriously: "Not to ntion that Ash has infinite possibilities, but even now these eight aren’t all of them—Ash, is the Silver Lamp really coming back?"
"I will definitely bring her back." Ash said calmly, "She’s waiting for ."
He opened the "Aurora’s Mage Manual" - "Operator Interface," and looked slightly lost at Weiser’s character art inside. Unlike the previous black-and-white color sche, Weiser’s character art now had a touch of silver, making her look rejuvenated.
If the change in character art says nothing, the change in Silver Lamp itself confirms Ash’s thoughts. He rembers when Silver Lamp was first born, she appeared as a five or six-year-old girl. According to Vishi, most Divine Beings start as children, needing long experiences to nurture their intelligence into growth.
But the Silver Lamp Ash saw in the Dream Treasury was already a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, and even though they were apart for only three months, a Divine Being couldn’t grow at such a speed, especially one imprisoned in the Dark World.
Ash preferred to believe that Weiser hadn’t completely disappeared, and that she is slowly awakening within the Divine Being.
That complex yet pure, cunning yet loyal girl who always liked to bite people’s lips was holding her Mage’s Handbook as she slept on the dark Silver Lamp Island.
It wasn’t Ash dreaming of the Silver Lamp; it was Silver Lamp dreaming of Ash.
At that mont, Rose ca over with snacks, a bottle of wine, and a bunch of glasses, then stood in front of Ash: "Hand."
Ash, not understanding, stretched out his hand, and Rose clasped his wrist, interlocking her fingers with his, and then—
"Hmm!"
Ash groaned, the strong pain in his palm made his scalp tingle: "Why are you pressing my palm!?"
"They say you have eight love interests." Rose said calmly, "To prevent you from dying in bed, I think it’s necessary to enhance your connection ability. I learned this massage technique overnight; if you persist, it will be effective."
"They’re talking nonsense. I’m not that ridiculous!" Ash defended himself righteously, "But your pressing feels good, so send the tutorial later. I want to learn the advanced dicine of the Kingdom of Allstars too."
Vishi laughed: "Given there’s a iwa inside, I think you’ll only survive with a Miracle..."
Filly looked at the bottle on the coffee table with a complex expression: "Do you want to drink?"
"Drinking is good, I love drinking." Vishi clapped her hands, "If you can drink everyone under the table, the victor can do whatever they want!"
"You, the one with the worst alcohol tolerance, are saying this." Ash mocked: "I hadn’t fallen that day, and you were already down."
"I wasn’t talking about myself." Vishi shot a aningful glance at Filly: "But, will soone actually take advantage of others being drunk to do sothing indecent..."
Filly’s legs tightened, lowering her head to look at her knees, thinking, how could that be—she made sure everyone was out cold drunk before making a move. How could Vishi know?
"I wouldn’t do such a thing!" Ash said irritably, "And there are caras in the public areas of the villa, so any misdeeds would be recorded!"
Oh, I see!
At this mont, Nia noticed the change in Filly’s mood and saw Vishi’s subtle glances at Filly, recollecting when she called Ash only to have Filly answer. She stared wide-eyed at Filly, who averted her gaze, not daring to et Nia’s eyes.
"Drink." Nia bit her lip lightly, "Then let’s drink; I want to drink!"
"But the focus isn’t the drink this ti, it’s the container." Ash suddenly produced a cup in his hand: "It’s ti to inventory our spoils."
What Ash brought out was the key artifact guiding the third Angel Hunt—
The Dull Holy Grail!
