his treasure-sensing range was only about five meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some hidden treasures even required direct physical contact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Full-state shared skill… decent, but not as strong as I imagined.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He speculated inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps treasure hunting isn’t the point—and that phrase “treasure in one’s heart” felt odd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wandered for nearly half an hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Found nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course—it was just a folk market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least he’d figured out how the skill worked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Luo De?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De turned toward the voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, standing quietly by the roadside, was a seductive beauty in a simple dark blue belted dress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her purple wavy hair was coiled into an imperfect bun at the back, strands loosely trailing in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her long ears, composed of insect exoskeleton and membrane wings, were especially striking, radiating an exotic charm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Tooth Fairy fairy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De raised an eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rosalia, honestly, even in this crowded street, I’d spot you at a glance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She covered her mouth and laughed softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Tooth Fairy fairy was a refined and intelligent woman, exceptionally skilled at handling men like Luo De.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She effortlessly deflected compliments without leaving a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, Mr. Luo De, where’s that girl who’s always by your side?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She meant Tally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De shrugged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The succubus was probably still asleep in the forest—when unwatched, she was always lazy and sleepy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But discussing another girl in front of a lady went against Luo De’s aesthetics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He feigned ignorance and simply invited her to stroll together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosalia had no objection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They walked side by side, chatting as they went.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How’s things in Coral Bay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not bad.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosalia stopped outside a flower shop, gazing at roses dripping with dew: “Perhaps losing the golem as a powerful ally, the ruling dark elves have retreated, holding tightly to Coral Bay—no longer as aggressively watchful as before.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They’re probably busy searching for these so-called bloodline nodes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, and this concept of bloodline nodes is unheard of—filtering for them must be extremely difficult.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De summoned a shopkeeper and summoned Jin Along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He bought a bouquet of roses and handed them to Rosalia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She smiled in delight: “Mr. Luo De really knows how to charm girls—no wonder you have so many admirers in the forest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I mean it—I give everyone my sincerity.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, he could see the “delight” on her face was fake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A woman as socially adept and as alluring as her couldn’t possibly have never faced male flattery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was just exceptionally skilled—handling every one without leaving a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1127,"2026-06-20T19:55:31.704Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","6cebb78d703ceaac2cd3050c353a0e1b705fca531fd2fdf08ca291c7a799d5f5","i-m-a-forest-warden-why-am-i-enslaving-a-succubu-chapter-224","i-m-a-forest-warden-why-am-i-enslaving-a-succubu-chapter-222",704,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-a-forest-warden-why-am-i-enslaving-a-succubu-cover.jpg"]
