"As long as you don't hurt Master ntor, I won't bla you...
"I'm sorry for how I've been towards you lately..."
The mont the two reached their reconciliation, Reflection Naclis suddenly looked down at her own hands.
"What's wrong?"
Loren noticed her movent and asked.
Reflection Naclis didn't speak at first, instead using her shadow to materialize a chainsaw, then she finally spoke:
"I suddenly feel my control over shadows has beco stronger... I couldn't create things like this before, and my power seems to have increased as well."
"Just as I thought..."
Loren had guessed correctly earlier. After reconciling with her reflection, it indeed enhanced Naclis's Arcane Ability.
Other people's Arcane Abilities are simply a type of power, but Naclis's Arcane Ability has consciousness. If the two couldn't reconcile, the power of the Arcane Ability would be greatly limited.
"Do you feel anything?"
Loren turned his head and asked Naclis. She also tested it out, and a chainsaw similarly appeared in her hands.
This wasn't just Naclis gaining stronger control over her Arcane Ability. One must rember, in the past, when the reflection left Naclis, she was completely unable to use her Arcane Ability.
"Congratulations..."
Loren felt genuinely happy for Naclis. During this trip to Uridia, Naclis, Laila, and Movila had all gained enhancents.
Especially Loren himself. Among all the other things he gained from this trip, nothing was as important as Blood Moon Condensed Light.
Before, Loren had an abundance of Mana but lacked powerful magic. It was like having endless Gunpowder but only being able to make fireworks.
Now, with Blood Moon Condensed Light, Loren's Mana could finally achieve its proper effect. The Gunpowder could finally be made into bombs.
After helping Naclis and her reflection resolve their conflict, Loren walked out of the small room. As soon as he stepped out, he saw Mirrorheart rolling around on the floor.
For so reason, it reminded Loren of those children who throw tantrums and roll on the floor in shopping malls, trying to get sothing from their parents.
"What kind of madness are you up to?"
Seeing Loren approach, Mirrorheart finally stopped:
"I know everything that happened between you and Cecelia."
Hearing Mirrorheart's words, everyone turned their gaze towards Loren. Lilith looked around, confused about what was happening, but still followed the others in looking at Loren.
"What happened between the two of us?"
Even Loren was completely baffled at this mont. Even if sothing really had happened, it would be others who should be anxious. Mirrorheart shouldn't have any reaction at all.
In fact, Mirrorheart had always been dedicated to helping others "conquer" him, so Loren found it very difficult to understand Mirrorheart's current reaction.
"You hit Cecelia, but you refuse to hit ."
"I..."
Loren felt sothing blocking his words. He didn't even know how to retort to Mirrorheart.
After learning the specific situation, the others all breathed sighs of relief. Only Anna showed a hint of envy.
Cecelia herself crawled out from under the bed, glanced at the situation outside, then crawled back under.
She had been lying face down the whole ti because her bottom still hurt.
In any case, Cecelia had sowhat bewilderingly joined Loren's big family. After learning Cecelia was a Witch, Loren's wariness towards her completely vanished.
At this mont, Loren really wanted to give Mirrorheart a beating, but seeing her expectant little expression, he couldn't bring himself to do it.
"Get up first, the floor is dirty."
"It's not dirty. Seraphina cleaned it very thoroughly."
Hearing Mirrorheart ntion her, Seraphina raised her hand, looking very well-behaved.
"Well, as long as you're happy then..."
Loren rubbed his temples, turned around, and went back into the room. Laila also quietly followed behind Loren.
After Loren closed the door, Laila suddenly blocked his path. However, she didn't speak, just turned her face to the side. A blush rose on her cheeks, and she appeared very bashful and hesitant.
"What are you trying to do?"
Loren thought Laila wanted it. Indeed, since coming here, Laila hadn't asked for it yet.
"I..."
Even though Loren asked directly, Laila was still extrely bashful. He hadn't seen her this hesitant even before.
After struggling internally for a long ti, Laila finally spoke:
"You... how about you try hitting a few tis?"
Loren froze. He confird it several tis in his mind. He was certain he wasn't hallucinating.
"Co on, just try it..."
As she said this, Laila directly flopped onto the edge of the bed, burying her face in her arms, avoiding Loren's eyes.
Loren hadn't expected Laila to be so full of contrasts. Usually so bold and straightforward, acting very proper. Loren never imagined she had this side to her.
"Why do you suddenly have this idea..."
"Anna told a long ti ago, saying it gives a different kind of feeling. I didn't take it seriously at the ti, but I occasionally rembered it later. Until today, when I saw how much Mirrorheart valued this matter, I got a little curious..."
"No way..."
Loren had thought of many possibilities. He thought Mirrorheart had corrupted Laila, but it turned out to be Anna.
"The morals of the world are declining..."
Before Loren could finish his lant, he heard Laila urging him:
"Hurry up, my sense of sha is about to explode. If you refuse, I'm afraid every ti I think of this in the future, I'll be so embarrassed I'll want to die..."
If Loren actually did it, it would be consensual, sothing Laila could accept in her heart... But if Loren refused, it would just be Laila acting crazy alone, which would be truly mortifying.
After hesitating for a long ti, Loren finally did it, though he went much lighter...
...
"I feel like I'm so strange..."
Laila was lying across Loren's lap. She used to just lie down directly, but it wasn't very convenient right now.
"Thank goodness you can still feel that you're strange..."
Hearing Loren's words, Laila felt a bit indignant. She suddenly sat up, leaned on Loren's shoulder, and brought her mouth close to Loren's ear:
"Am I a bad child? D...a...d...d...y..."
As soon as the words left her mouth, Laila regretted it. Steam seed to faintly rise from her head.
She didn't wait for Loren to reply, scrambling and stumbling as she ran out of Loren's Bedroom. She couldn't even understand herself for saying such a thing just now...
In fact, after Laila ran out, Loren even heard the sound of her head hitting the wall.
Given a Witch's physical constitution, hitting a wall wouldn't cause any harm, so Loren just let her be.
"Day after day..."
Loren stroked Starnight's back. Starnight had been standing on the headboard. She had also seen this scene just now, but Loren figured she was just a Bird and wouldn't understand these things, so he didn't pay much attention.
Only Loren didn't notice that Starnight had now frozen stiff. She felt her worldview had crumbled a little, but...
