Chapter 677 : Gimme That

The Imperial Palace district was not peaceful.

The struggle for the "Morning Star" in the Royal Capital District had reached a fever pitch, but the territory was too small. The majority of the "Morning Star" was in Seiwa's dungeons.

The Royal Capital District was about to be unsealed. Whoever could get out of the city first would seize the initiative.

The Empire's Third Princess, Her Highness Lecia, sat in her study, drinking tea and chatting with the person opposite her.

"My sister seems to have broken recently. Her smile is very stiff, and the light in her eyes is fading. What's wrong with her?" She twirled the teaspoon with her slender, rosy fingers and blew on the tea.

"Perhaps something happened with her Big Brother Felyn? I also feel that Dorothy's illness has been getting more and more serious lately. I don't dare to get too close to her anymore."

"Oh my, even you, brother, are afraid of my sister. How rare."

Lecia turned to look out the window, contemplating whether to tell Felyn the news that Dorothy was about to break.

Once the Royal Capital District was unsealed, she couldn't imagine what Dorothy would do.

Dorothy was now like a compressed spring. Once released, she might just pierce the heavens.

"Brother, how is that matter of yours progressing?"

"Rest assured. When the people from the Royal Capital District rush to the dungeons, they'll find that there's no 'Morning Star' left in Seiwa's underground. I'm really looking forward to seeing their expressions. When the Royal Capital District is unsealed, I will personally lead the team. There will be no mistakes."

"You can't overdo it either, or people will suspect that someone is privately collecting the 'Morning Star'."

"Mmm, don't worry."

"Also..." Lecia was not at ease. "The Silafiel and Claude families, they're not involved, are they?"

"No, why do you ask? Are you also worried about Felyn? Lecia, I don't want both of my sisters to marry the same man."

"I just don't want to implicate these two pillars of the Empire. The situation is turbulent right now. If problems arise in their two families, it will be a headache for me."

Dorothy was probably sick.

Felyn was well aware of this.

Normally, she would send him a greeting message every morning, noon, and night.

But recently, she hadn't.

The reason was also very simple: Dorothy had probably guessed the relationship between him and Adelina.

Compared to Waldrick of the Silafiel family, Dorothy was a bit more terrifying.

In order not to become a toy in Dorothy's room, to let Anise experience a satisfying script, and to help Viloti get rid of the bad guy, Felyn was undergoing special training with Anise.

"Anise, I'm ready." Felyn was very serious. To receive guidance from the Demon King's daughter was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Anise nodded in satisfaction, standing with Felyn in the small courtyard behind the house.

A protective magic had been cast around them, so the training inside would not be seen by people outside the house.

The garden created by Fiorella was somewhat similar to the flower beds in the Imperial Palace, very suitable for training.

Seeing Felyn's serious and solemn expression, Anise was quite surprised.

This guy Felyn... to save me, he's actually studying so seriously.

He's working hard for me, and I'm actually a little happy about it. What's going on?

Anise's brown eyes blinked, hiding the embarrassment in her heart.

"The coordination between divine arts is very important. Although I don't know divine arts, I can teach you how to make your divine art attacks more fluid." Anise raised her hand and began to construct magical patterns.

"I will control the magic to Tier 2, so we'll be on equal footing."

Actual combat was always the best way to improve one's strength. Anise planned to use magical attacks to simulate real combat, allowing Felyn to become proficient in using both divine arts.

The first spark of magical power burst from her fingertips. A fist-sized magic bullet, with a sharp whistle, shot towards Felyn's position.

This was the most basic magic, but in the hands of the Demon King's daughter, its speed, accuracy, and power all reached the pinnacle of Tier 2 magic.

Felyn had already activated a buffing art seal to increase his agility, but the magic bullet still grazed his cheek as it flew past. Felyn had only barely managed to dodge the attack.

So fast!

Seeing Felyn's somewhat disheveled state, Anise was a little smug. Magic was the thing she was most proud of.

"At the same tier, the power of magic is much greater than divine arts." Anise said while preparing to launch a second attack. "Felyn, do you want to learn?"

"Can I learn magic?"

A smile tugged at the corner of Anise's mouth. "Of course, you can't."

"Then why did you ask me?!" Felyn glared at Anise.

"I just wanted to show off in front of you! I finally have something I can be proud of, and you won't even let me show off!" Anise huffed, then launched her second attack.

This time, she launched two magic bullets simultaneously.

According to her experience, Felyn would probably dodge the first one, but he would be unable to dodge the second one no matter what.

Anise was already starting to fantasize in her mind about Felyn falling to the ground, hugging her thigh, his eyes shining with admiration.

Felyn, worship me! Treat me better in the future, and ignore that mother dragon!

But in the next second.

Two magical patterns also appeared in Felyn's hands. A purple magic circle materialized in his palm, and then two identical magic bullets shot towards Anise.

Anise recognized at a glance that these were the two spells she had just cast.

How could this be! How can Felyn use magic!

Magic is mine!

"Boom!"

The collision of magic power created a violent shockwave, and both Anise's and Felyn's hair began to flutter with the blast.

Anise's lips were agape. The shock of seeing Felyn, a human, use magic was no less than seeing Seraphina clinging to Felyn and calling him Master.

"Felyn, are you actually a demon?"

"How could I be? Of course, I'm human."

"Then how can you use my magic?!" Anise took two steps forward and shook Felyn's body, completely in disbelief. "Have you really become my subordinate?"

Felyn's head spun for a moment; he was about to be shaken to the point of vomiting by Anise. "That's my divine art, it can copy... stop shaking."

"Copy? So overpowered? Speaking of which... I seem to remember my father telling me about a church that could copy others' divine arts."

Anise finally let go of Felyn and sized up his face. "Can you copy anyone's divine art or magic?"

"Not really. Currently, I can only copy people who are willing to let me copy. I never thought I'd be able to successfully copy your magic before."

"What are you talking about?" Anise crossed her arms. "I don't remember being willing to let you copy my magic."

"I'm not too clear on that either. It should be that people who have a relatively good relationship with me won't resist my copy of divine art."

A relative... good relationship?

Is my relationship with Felyn already so good that I would subconsciously provide him with magic?!

Is our relationship actually that good?!
