Chapter 405 : Why Am I So Unlucky Tonight!

“Click.”

The crisp sound of handcuffs snapping shut coincided with the sound of a car door opening.

The door of the car carrying the two Divine Children was opened.

Inside the carriage, the Divine Child with long, blue-gray hair looked up slightly. The bridge of her nose, visible beneath the black lace eye mask, cast a perfect shadow in the moonlight.

Daiyi looked back at Adelina, who was being escorted into the car by Bernice, and greeted her, “Miss Adelina, long time no see... or rather, we just saw each other.”

Adelina nodded, her rose-tea colored hair sliding over her shoulder with the movement.

Her gaze subtly swept over the Divine Child’s ribbon-covered eyes. Her first thought was that Felyn was actually bringing another strange girl home.

Just how many girls did Felyn have around him?

But the next second, when she sensed the cold, detached aura of the Divine Child, she tightly clenched the hem of her skirt, trying to guess the other party’s identity and realizing that this person was far from simple.

Bernice walked up to Daiyi’s side, tapped on the car door, and complained in a low voice, “Miss Daiyi, my dear Miss Daiyi. My mission was to protect you in Seiva City, and now I have to protect not only your boyfriend but also your boyfriend’s girlfriend.”

Bernice leaned closer to Daiyi’s ear, lowering her voice even further, “When you two have children, you’re not going to ask me to change diapers, are you?”

“I’m sorry, Bernice, but right now, only you can...”

Daiyi’s words were interrupted by Bernice’s smile. Bernice winked slyly, clearly about to say something outrageous.

“Unless you let me be with Senior Felyn too,” or perhaps, “I also want to join the war to snatch Felyn.”

Guessing what Bernice was about to say, Daiyi quickly reached out to stop her.

The Divine Child of Order was right behind her; she absolutely could not hear those words.

Bernice pouted, a little disappointed that she couldn’t see Daiyi lose her composure.

She felt that something had clearly happened between Daiyi and Felyn tonight. Perhaps the two had become true lovers, or perhaps Miss Daiyi had finally started to fall for him.

If the two continued to live together, it was easy to imagine what would happen.

Bernice’s thoughts were interrupted by a sudden surge of noise.

At the end of the street, a purple banner embroidered with the crest of the Sivishus Empire pierced the night.

The knight carrying the banner wore a royal sash, and the magic crystal badge on his chest glittered in the moonlight.

These were genuine Royal Guards.

Presumably, the disturbance in this area, or perhaps a certain person here, had attracted the attention of a very important figure.

Bernice leaned against the car, arms crossed over her chest, and looked up at the rooftop.

Silafiel, the guards of the Claude Family, Dorothy’s personal knights, and the Royal Guards—everyone gathered here was because of one young man.

Thinking about it, it truly felt a little unbelievable.

Felyn had not only noble young ladies around him but also a Princess, a Divine Child, the Daughter of the Demon King, and an Evil God.

“Felyn, what exactly is the difference between you and the Demon King...”

...

“Dorothy, what are you doing?”

Felyn looked at the pink handcuff on his wrist and at the pink-purple-haired Dorothy.

The pinker the color, the harsher the restraint.

“B-Brother F-Felyn, I was just too happy, so I subconsciously...”

I was too happy, so I subconsciously played with handcuffs.

Was that reasonable?

The other end of the handcuff had not yet been snapped onto Dorothy’s wrist. Felyn quickly covered Dorothy’s hand, preventing her from getting excited again and cuffing herself to him.

That would truly be the end.

“Brother Felyn, what are you doing... I don’t have the key for the handcuffs, so as long as we’re bound together, Brother Felyn will be completely inseparable from me tonight, and those bad women won’t be able to steal you away anymore...”

Watching the adorable-looking Dorothy utter such terrifying words, Felyn tried to bring her back to her senses.

“Dorothy, can we discuss this? In the future, please don’t handcuff people or try to kidnap me...”

“No.”

Dorothy flatly refused Felyn’s request, gently prying his fingers away with her hand, attempting to cuff herself to him.

“Why not?”

“Brother Felyn is going to be stolen by other girls. Brother Felyn is also a bad person; he always likes other girls. Miss Adelina must have been very comfortable hugging you just now. I saw the look of enjoyment on Brother Felyn’s face then. Even though her chest is big, Dorothy’s isn’t small either. Brother Felyn can lean on me more too.”

Dorothy glared at Felyn in dissatisfaction, then looked down at her own chest.

The benefit that magic brought to Dorothy was that she wouldn’t age.

But correspondingly, her physical development would also stop.

Comforting words like “It will get bigger in the future” were completely useless to Dorothy.

“Wait, Dorothy, you’ve just described the Brother Felyn in your mouth as a pervert! I wasn’t enjoying it at all then!”

Dorothy was still prying Felyn’s hand away with her fingers, occasionally making grunting sounds of effort.

She wanted to remove Felyn’s hand, snap the handcuff onto her own wrist, and cuff herself to Felyn.

“Brother Felyn only needs to be a pervert to me. As long as we put on these handcuffs and go back to the bedroom together, we can do many, many perverted things. I’m willing to do anything for Brother Felyn...”

Felyn watched Dorothy’s eyes grow increasingly frantic, watching the corners of her mouth curve upward, and subconsciously swallowed.

He was a little scared.

He had made a promise to Dorothy earlier because he didn’t want to keep avoiding her, lest it cause her to invest even more emotion in him.

For Dorothy, avoidance wouldn’t solve the problem; it would only make it worse.

He could tell his other clients, “Let’s not meet again; the contract ends here.” The worst result would be that the clients would be sad for a few months, or even a year, and then they would give up.

But if he said that to Dorothy, she would only say, “Brother Felyn, you love to joke.” She wouldn’t give him a chance to explain; she would immediately cover his mouth and try every means to take him back to her bedroom, slowly forcing him to accept her affection.

Therefore, Felyn had planned to face Dorothy directly, even if he risked being imprisoned.

But when this moment truly arrived, Felyn was still a little afraid.

“Click.”

Just as Felyn’s mind was racing, he heard the sound of the handcuff closing again.

The other end had been cuffed.

It was over.

It was truly over now.

I... I’m going to be taken back to the bedroom by Dorothy.

I’m going to become Dorothy’s... become Dorothy’s...!

Felyn seemed to envision his fate: he would be like the teddy bear on Dorothy’s bed, never able to get up again.

“Eh?”

Dorothy’s confused voice interrupted Felyn’s despairing fantasy.

She blinked in confusion, just like Felyn, and looked down at the other side of the handcuff.

A fair, feminine hand had indeed been cuffed.

But that hand did not belong to Dorothy.

“Zervanie, what are you doing?”

Silver-white long hair cascaded down, obscuring Dorothy’s vision.

Zervanie’s sweet smile eclipsed the moon, dominating Dorothy’s sky.

“Felyn, do you usually play... so wildly with Her Highness? Do you like handcuffs and imprisonment?” Zervanie looked at her own wrist, and only after confirming that she was completely cuffed to Felyn did she turn to face Dorothy.

“Oh dear, my apologies, Your Highness. I accidentally got cuffed with Felyn. This is terrible.”

“Accidentally?” Dorothy frowned, looking at Zervanie in front of her, her voice becoming sharp, “Are you saying you accidentally walked over, accidentally grabbed my hand, and accidentally slipped your hand into the handcuff?”

“Mhm, Your Highness Dorothy is so clever; you guessed it all.”

“Guessed my foot! You clearly did it on purpose!”

Dorothy tugged at the handcuffs with both hands, finding that she couldn’t pull them apart at all.

These handcuffs were custom-made by her. Without the key, it would require a divine spell or magic of Rank 5 or higher to break them.

“No, don’t do this, no no no no no...”

Dorothy panicked, her pink-purple curls constantly brushing against their wrists.

She was the one who wanted to be cuffed to Brother Felyn, so why did Brother Felyn end up cuffed to Zervanie instead!

Why was she so unlucky tonight!

Just as Dorothy was panicking, Veronica, who had just come up the stairs, brought Dorothy even worse news.

“Your Highness, Princess Lecia has already brought the troops...”

Veronica stopped mid-sentence.

She saw the scene before her and was momentarily unable to comprehend what was happening.

Zervanie and Felyn were cuffed together, and Dorothy was kneeling between them.

W-What kind of position was this? What was the relationship between these three?!

“Princess Lecia said that the King wants to see you now... So, Your Highness, we should leave.” Veronica walked up to Dorothy and patted her shoulder.

“N-No! The key... right... where’s the key?! Where is my key!”

Dorothy frantically searched her pockets, suddenly remembering the words she had spoken earlier.

“I didn’t bring the key!”
