Chapter 664 : This is a Life-or-Death Battle

Felyn walked a little further away.

He walked out of the building and came to a corner on the roadside.

If he were to ignore Seraphina at this moment, he would be fine for now. But after the Royal Capital District opened up, his life would definitely be taken by the furious Seraphina.

He glanced at his watch. He had been out for ten minutes already. Eitani was most likely getting suspicious.

Ideally, she would need another ten minutes before she got up to look for him. At least, she would need ten minutes to find him.

Twenty minutes, that should be enough, right?

If I work hard, and Seraphina works hard too, we should be able to finish ahead of schedule.

When I go back, I'll just buy Eitani a little gift to appease her.

Although the plan was simple, Felyn was confident he could do it.

In order not to be turned into dust by Eitani's super-tier magic and Seraphina's dragon breath, he had to give it his all.

Felyn took a deep breath, unbuttoned his collar, and his eyes gradually became resolute.

This was a life-or-death battle!

Come on!

"Seraphina." Felyn adjusted his voice to the one in the contract, making it slightly deeper.

"Eek—!" A blush-inducing sound came from the art seal. "I'm here, Master, I'm here. Seraphina is right here. I'm on the floor right now..."

"Are you kneeling properly?"

"Kneeling properly, kneeling properly!" Her voice was urgent, wishing she could pass through the art seal and bring Felyn directly to her side.

Because Felyn was not by Seraphina's side, all he could do was help her soften her dragon scales.

The specific operation still required Seraphina to do it herself.

"Tie yourself up with a rope, quickly."

The whip couldn't be used. Seraphina could only use a rope for friction.

This would be very inefficient. It felt like twenty minutes wouldn't be enough.

"Still not tied up? I don't have much time. If you don't do it within ten seconds, I'm hanging up the art seal."

"N-no, please, Master, don't hang up the art seal. Seraphina is already trying very hard."

The progress was even slower than Felyn had expected.

He stared at his watch. Ten minutes had already passed.

But Seraphina hadn't even removed a single scale!

It felt like it was all over.

"Ma-Master, why aren't you talking? Is it because Seraphina isn't doing well enough?"

"Yes. You haven't even removed a single scale in ten minutes. Are you trying to fool me?"

"Absolutely not, Master, absolutely not! Seraphina is already trying very hard. Master, Seraphina's clothes are already soaked with sweat, so... hiss~ Master, please continue talking. I feel the old scales are starting to glow."

Felyn raised his eyebrows, finally seeing a glimmer of hope for victory.

But just at this moment, just as Seraphina's body's convulsions were about to reach their peak, the old scales glowing with red light were about to fall off, and her body was finally about to be liberated, a cold, emotionless voice came to Felyn's ear.

"Felyn, what are you doing?"

Felyn's body trembled, his heart racing wildly, startled by Eitani's voice.

He didn't dare to look up. He didn't even dare to breathe.

The whole world fell into a strange silence. Even the wind disappeared.

It's over.

It's absolutely over now.

Why did Eitani find me after only ten minutes? Why!

And at this moment, a terrible sound came from the communication art seal.

"Master... why aren't you talking? Master, you can't stop at this time, I'm about to—"

The call was disconnected.

Felyn pressed the disconnect button, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

Although the sound of the communication art seal wouldn't be broadcasted, what if the Demon King's daughter's hearing was extremely sharp and she could hear it?

The Dragon Lady is also terrifying, but right now the Demon King's daughter is by my side. Let's just survive the present first!

"Master? Who's calling you Master?"

Eitani heard it after all!!!

Felyn began to panic.

This panic was no different from being caught in the act on the bed.

"No one, hahaha, Eitani, you must have misheard, right?" Felyn wanted to stand up, but his legs were a little weak.

"I wouldn't mishear." Eitani shook her head, her voice still calm for now.

But Felyn could see her nails digging into her arm.

"I was just waiting for you, waiting until the grilled steak got cold. And you were here playing with your pet?"

Felyn felt a wave of dizziness. The Demon King's daughter had accurately found the core of the problem.

"What are you talking about, Eitani? I was originally going to buy you a gift, but I received a call request from someone else, so I was talking on the phone here."

"A gift?" Eitani's eyebrow raised, her shadow falling on Felyn's face. "The last gift you gave me was Seraphina's bracelet. It was still warm when you gave it to me. It must have still had her body temperature, right?"

Felyn was constantly forced back by Eitani, her words like ice arrows piercing his chest.

"Whose was today's gift worn by? It couldn't be Seraphina's again, could it?"

Eitani cornered Felyn. "Could it be that you were just on the phone with Seraphina?"

This woman's sixth sense was terrifyingly accurate!

When Seraphina was removing her old scales, her voice would become more charming and viscous, so Eitani hadn't recognized it.

She had guessed it purely on intuition.

"She called you Master? You two really play rough..."

"Seraphina? The Dragon Lady, right? Eitani, you've misunderstood."

Felyn gradually regained his footing. "How could the Dragon Lady call me Master? She hates humans the most."

"I was really going to buy you a gift. There's a huge flower shop nearby. You look so beautiful today, and you helped me so much during the day, so I wanted to give you flowers as a surprise."

"But halfway there, a client of mine sent me a message, forcing me to talk on the phone, or she would come find me."

Felyn began to get into character. His hands were behind his back, secretly squeezing a drop of eye drops.

Don't ask why he carried eye drops; this was professional quality.

Felyn took the opportunity to rub his eyes and dropped the water droplets into his eye sockets.

"My client is a bit aggressive, so... so I had to do it."

Eitani watched Felyn's face become more and more aggrieved, watched his body slowly curl up, resisting the cold.

"I didn't want her to disturb our date, Eitani. You look really beautiful today, so... so I wanted to spend more time with you."

Felyn deliberately squeezed out a smile for Eitani. "I just answered her call on the way, wanting to see what she had to say. I'm sorry, Eitani, for letting you hear something you shouldn't have."

"I know you're very angry. If this happened to me, I would be very angry too. No matter how you hit me or scold me, I can accept it. It's just..."

Felyn looked into the distance, pretending that the corner was the flower shop.

"Just wait until I give you the flowers, then you can scold me, okay? You really deserve a bouquet of flowers tonight."

Eitani stood there stunned, her lips unable to close.

Felyn was originally buying me flowers?

Felyn valued our date so much? He even wanted to give me a surprise!

He actually said I'm beautiful...

Eitani had been very angry just now. She had searched all the way here, and then heard that kind of voice from Felyn's communication art seal. She wished she could release a super-tier spell right now and imprint Felyn on the wall.

But Felyn's words, like dye dropped into water, instantly transformed Eitani's accumulated anger into another emotion.

This huge emotion made her cheeks begin to flush, and her eyes begin to dart away.

Eitani swayed her body slightly, looking elsewhere.

Her hands were behind her back, clasped nervously.

Her toes drew circles on the ground, dispersing the shyness in her heart.

The Demon King's daughter had heard such ardent words from Felyn for the first time.

"R-really?" Eitani's voice softened. "If it's true... th-then I'm not angry anymore. I won't be angry about what happens between you and humans. Y-you don't misunderstand, it's not like I came looking for you because I was worried about you, and it's certainly not because I was jealous seeing you with other girls. I'm the Demon King's daughter..."

"It's true. How could I lie to you?"

But those who lie have to swallow a thousand needles.

As soon as the words fell, the communication art seal in Felyn's pocket began to vibrate with an unprecedentedly frantic frequency.

Messages, calls, these requests appeared like a torrential downpour.

It was Seraphina.

It was Seraphina, who was about to reach the peak but was suddenly interrupted.

The Dragon Lady, she was going crazy now.
