"How can I not worry?"

Luvia took that twenty-sided silver die from Xia De's hand to check it, but soon returned it to him:

"It's all me. If it weren't for my rashness in doing what I did tonight, you wouldn't have been targeted by the evil god."

Xia De laughed:

"I feel that even without tonight's events, at the end of the Fatumont Island story, that god of misfortune would have found me. Don't refute me, my intuition is very accurate."

He stroked Luvia's hair:

"The god of luck is the old god 【White Holy Tree】 worshipped by the forest hermits. Although this old god is no longer here, I might be able to get help from the hermits. And I also said, this is not the first time facing an evil god, I will handle this matter well."

She looked up at him in Xia De's arms, nodded "um" with some guilt, and Xia De looked at her eyes and asked again:

"Do you know? Your eyes now are even more charming than in the past."

Luvia also revealed a slight smile:

"Xia De, even if you say so, I can't go downstairs with you tonight. I don't want to make a mess everywhere... However, if you just want to feel these eyes..."

She paused, and with a blush on her face, she whispered a few words in Xia De's ear. Xia De was startled:

"Are you kidding? How can this be?"

Luvia didn't care:

"Just like just now, can't you use False Immortality?"

But she worried:

"Although you often praise my eyes for being big, it seems they are not big enough compared to this... but it should be enough. Which side do you choose? I remember you usually start from the left."

"Stop!"

Xia De, who was really scared, stopped her immediately:

"I don't have this hobby. Really, why do you have such thoughts?"

"Because, I really don't know how to repay the love you gave me."

The purple eyes stared at Xia De:

"All along, you have given me too much."

"It should be, all along you have tolerated me too much."

Xia De kissed her brow, and Luvia confirmed that Xia De really rejected her proposal, so she said gently:

"Go find Miss Jia Lin Na, don't let her wait too long, have a good dream."

Xia De then left the quilt and tucked her in. And when Xia De was about to leave, the girl who was lying there looking at him asked one more time:

"Xia De, do you really not want to try?"

"Not at all, go to sleep, really, the thoughts of girls nowadays are really strange."

He said this and left the room. When he was about to close the door, he said again:

"Good night, Luvia."

"Good night, Xia De."

The door closed, and Xia De crossed the living room to the second floor, accompanied by the sound of Little Mia's footsteps in the stairwell. Luvia listened to these sounds, covered herself with the quilt, and looked at the ceiling with a smile for a while. She got up slightly to look at the 【Pedestal of Fate】 on the bedside table, touched her eyes again, and then lay down again, closing her eyes and falling into a deep sleep.

The phantom of the long-haired girl appeared by the bed. She sat there looking at her sleeping face, thinking about the past and the present:

"If I had met Xia De in the first Sixth Era, what would have happened?"

Miss Jia Lin Na had a strange feeling that night, and that was that Xia De was a bit too excited. Witches all have the ability to feel Xia De's subtle emotional changes, and tonight Xia De's emotional changes were not subtle, but very rough—

"I almost called Tifa to help, yes, just a little bit."

This was Friday morning. While Xia De was still washing up in the washroom, Miss Jia Lin Na said to Luvia at the dining table. The red-haired Duchess was radiant early in the morning. Luvia suspected that she got up so early today because she didn't sleep at all.

Knowing that Xia De was still emotionally changed by her proposal last night, Luvia felt funny in her heart, but more was envy. Girls all covet the gentleness of Xia De's embrace and his ungentlemanly behavior at certain times:

"Then why don't you call Vanessa or Sylvia to help tonight? Or..."

She glanced at Tifa, who was preparing breakfast in the kitchen:

"Really call her to help. I won't interfere with your affairs, but it's meaningless for you to continue blocking like this."

"I'm not blocking, I just didn't find a suitable opportunity. At first, I was a bit angry and didn't agree, but now I'm stuck instead."

The satisfied Miss Jia Lin Na tilted her head and thought for a while:

"I'll think about it again. I originally planned to wait until Xia De's birthday this year to give him a surprise."

"What birthday surprise? Are you talking about Angelina? Angelina's birthday is on the ninth of next month. This is her eighteenth birthday. Speaking of which, it really needs to be prepared in advance."

Xia De, who walked out of the washroom, said, followed by a cat that was very energetic early in the morning. When Angelina had her birthday last year, Xia De gave her the "Armless Goddess" statue he made in the Randell River Valley as a gift. Angelina still kept that gift in her room and liked it very much.

Although the birthday that people in this era value most is the sixteenth adult birthday, the eighteenth birthday is relatively not very important, but Xia De still wanted to prepare a unique gift for Angelina.

Miss Jia Lin Na and Luvia tacitly stopped talking about the previous topic. Some things don't need to be said in front of Xia De:

"Angelina's birthday banquet this year probably won't be as lively as last year. I don't think you need to prepare anything special. As long as you appear at the birthday banquet and dance the first dance with Angelina, Angelina will definitely be satisfied."

"Don't be so perfunctory; everyone only gets one youth at eighteen... Alright, let's not talk about this."

At the breakfast table that followed, Miss Jia Lin Na and Luvia also discussed the issue of the 【House of Pseudo-Humans】 with Xia De. Now the specific location of the 【House of Pseudo-Humans】 has been determined, and the weapon that can suppress the "flesh of the eldest son" is about to be completed, so there is no need to drag this matter on.

Xia De naturally had the same idea:

"I need to break into the deepest layer of the House of Pseudo-Humans from the outside and return to that core room. Ellie and Little Liana can help me break through the flesh wall. Besides that, for safety, I will go to Danister in a while to see if it is convenient for the academy's unicorns to appear on Fatumont Island.

So there is only one last problem left to solve, which is the damage to the flesh body in the depths of the 【House of Pseudo-Humans】. I am not afraid of this, but the unicorns and others who go to help cannot bear it.

Although among the helpers I can invite, there are also existences like the Guardian of the Earth who have no flesh body at all. But recently, the anomalies of the earth have increased, and they still need to stabilize the heart of the earth, so I won't look for them this time."

Miss Jia Lin Na reminded:

"The maid in that castle is not a flesh body either. Although she claims that she is unwilling to leave the castle, if you really make a request, I don't believe she won't help. She is clearly the helper left to you by that Ice Witch Empress."

"I will ask Miss Winnie. But even with her, others still need protection. This kind of flesh erosion power is quite unique, coupled with the influence of whisper elements, I think ordinary means should not be able to protect everyone."

Xia De said, and then thought of his "armor":

"The golden armor sent by Miss Gao De should be able to protect one person. After the blessing of the Sun Temple in the 【Gravel Sand Sea】, the miracle elements on that armor are already very strong, which was reflected in the Battle of Moon Bay."

"Are you talking about that golden kitty armor?"

Luvia asked with a smile, and Xia De corrected immediately:

"It's golden lion armor."

Then the witch and the diviner both laughed. They were just teasing Xia De on purpose, and Xia De didn't care:

"If we can't find other ways, let Vanessa or Danister wear the armor and follow me. As for the safety of Ellie and Little Liana..."

Miss Jia Lin Na interrupted him:

"You don't have to worry so much. The 【Witch Council】 has the protective characteristics of giving members resistance to the harm of such environmental relics. Simply put, it is to reduce the impact of the venue effect we receive to the lowest level.

Great witches can all receive the protection of the Witch Council. This kind of protection is not omnipotent, but it should be no problem to persist in accompanying you deep inside. We can't bear the core area, but we can set foot in other areas. As for the unicorns, Little Liana is the academy's unicorn, and we have no right to dispose of it, but Ellie is still in an unowned state, or rather, its owner is you.

We bring it into the council and register it as the council's unicorn, and the council's power can extend to it. Although this requires a vote, the Speaker shouldn't refuse a unicorn."

Xia De breathed a sigh of relief:

"That's even better. You only need to accompany me through the outer and middle layers of the 【House of Pseudo-Humans】, and finally choose one person to wear the armor and accompany me deep into the core area. So when will this matter be handled? I was thinking of waiting until the All Souls' Festival ends and the elemental environment on the island stabilizes before going to deal with the 【House of Pseudo-Humans】 to complete the story of the third act. The All Souls' Festival ends on Saturday, and Sunday is the first day of next month."

In other words, Xia De will be able to see Adele again on Sunday.

"Today is Friday, right? Meeting tonight, you tell Claire in a while, let her mention it in the council. If there is no problem, she can directly lead that unicorn into the council."

Miss Jia Lin Na then reminded Xia De again:

"Although everyone will understand that the unicorn belongs to Claire, since it has been registered under the council's name, if someone really wants to borrow it, it will be difficult for Claire to refuse. For example, Chaos, that guy who always calls himself 'I am the most beautiful', she has always wanted to raise a unicorn." ===== CHAPTER 3461 =====
