Chapter 3877

Xia De counted the number of blood drops falling in his heart and deliberately controlled the wound on his palm not to heal so quickly. The good news was that after ten drops of blood, the witch's complexion actually recovered its ruddiness at a speed visible to the naked eye, and this complexion was much better than when she first appeared.

And after the twentieth drop of blood fell, her breathing also became smooth.

"Now I don't have to worry about Miss Jia Lin Na and the others talking about me."

Xia De noticed that the gold bracelet "limiter" worn on her wrists and the gold silk collar behind her neck were both emitting a faint light. He didn't quite understand what this meant, but guessed in his heart that these alchemical equipments designed by Megan might have added a function to check physical condition.

The witch's condition was getting better and better. After the 25th drop of blood fell, the wound on Xia De's palm also completely healed.

Although he didn't expect his blood to have such a significant effect on the other party, as long as the treatment went smoothly, it was fine. So Xia De prepared to reach out to help her straighten out the four elements that were still restless in her body. He pressed his hand on the witch's brow, but just as his fingertips touched the skin of her brow, the witch's whole body suddenly trembled abnormally.

Just when Xia De thought she was about to wake up, the girl hugged his right hand and sat up, then bit down hard.

"Oh!"

The teeth tore the wound again, and the obvious sucking sensation was clearly longing for more blood. Xia De scanned the top of the other party's head in shock and surprise, confirming that the race mark floating there was indeed human. However, before he pushed the other party away, the witch's movements also stopped.

Through the three hands hugged together, Xia De saw that she had already opened her eyes, and there was astonishment in her golden eyes. She was clearly fully awake.

Because of the movement just now, her glasses were tilted to one side. Her golden eyes met Xia De's, and embarrassment and shyness immediately appeared in the astonishment.

For a moment, neither of them spoke, only the campfire in the camp crackled nearby. Even though she was no longer drawing blood at this moment, the witch's ruddy and healthy complexion was still becoming redder at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"If I were her, I would want to find an ant hole to crawl into right now."

Xia De could well understand the other party's thoughts at this moment; the action of biting his right hand just now should be the confusion of consciousness before waking up.

So after a moment of silence, he blinked, pulled his injured hand out of the other party's hands, and pressed his left hand on his right hand to treat himself. After all, if he didn't treat it, the wound would heal again.

Xia De looked down at his hand to give the other party a chance to adjust her mood, but the witch had no such intention at all. She touched her blood-stained lips with her left hand, looked around, paused slightly on the two severely injured and unconscious ring warlocks, and then stared at Xia De's face without blinking, with pink clouds on her face.

One hand supported on the blanket, her legs curled up when she sat up. Her eyes blinked, and as the redness on her face gradually faded, the strange girl clearly felt her heartbeat getting faster and faster.

When Xia De finished the treatment and looked up at her again, she just took off her glasses. The improvement in her physical condition seemed to make her vision better too.

"You..."

She spoke softly. Although her health had improved, she still gave people a feeling of delicacy.

This was a witch he was meeting for the first time, and he had exposed so many secrets. Xia De was already prepared to be questioned by the other party, and was prepared to use his powerful strength to make the other party recognize reality, and then make her apologize for the attack just now.

But the witch, who looked the same age as Luweiya and Dorothy, did not continue to speak, but gradually brought her face close to Xia De. Xia De held his breath subconsciously. Every witch had her own unique perfume called "Witch's Scent," and for some reason, the perfume scent of this black-haired witch made the outsider feel a heartbeat.

So before the other party was about to bump into his face impolitely, Xia De hurriedly coughed. The girl seemed to be awakened, and retreated with a slightly red face.

"About what happened just now, I'm sorry, I think I recognized the wrong person."

The accent when she spoke had a very strong Arcadia regional style, which was influenced by the Gudelin-Oll language, making her tone feel soft when she spoke.

With golden eyes staring at Xia De, she asked again:

"This scent, I have tasted it before... I mean, Mr., have I seen you somewhere before?"

"Hmm?"

The shocked outsider hurriedly recalled whether he had accidentally let his true appearance appear in the newspaper, but it was clear that he did not understand the other party's meaning, because the witch pursed her lips and showed a shameful expression again:

"The illusion on your face is affected by my constitution, I can see through it directly... you give me a very kind feeling, like an old friend I haven't seen for a long time."

Xia De still didn't understand what the other party wanted to express, but it seemed that this witch was still very polite.

And the other party's next sentence let Xia De know what those words just now meant.

"So, can you let me pursue you?"

"Hmm? Was that just hitting on me?"

Xia De suddenly realized, and "She" in his ear was already laughing. Seeing that this beautiful Great Witch of Chaos didn't seem to be joking, Xia De also stared at her and asked:

"Lady, you discovered that my gender is suspected to be a problem, right?"

The witch nodded quickly:

"Of course, when I mistakenly attacked you in the library just now, I felt that your gender was a problem. Now I feel that my physical state is better than ever, and my perception is particularly sharp, so... sorry."

She grabbed Xia De's hand with her delicate hand, and after letting go of Xia De, she observed her own palm:

"Yes, there is indeed a problem."

"Then why..."

The witch looked at Xia De again:

"There is a very familiar scent in your blood. The 【Star Dewdrops】 were provided by you to a colleague of mine, right? Since that's the case, you are definitely not an enemy, and can even be called a friend. Plus, I attacked you, but you saved me, so I formed a very good first impression of you.

As for gender, I don't care about gender. Since I was very young, I told myself: since I am the most beautiful girl in the world, the lover I choose for myself in the future must also be someone whose appearance can rival mine.

If I can't find such a person, I would rather be alone for the rest of my life, and this idea became clearer after I became a witch. So, since you are not a bad person, whether you are a woman or a man who can be immune to the witch's curse, it doesn't matter to me at all."

Xia De suddenly felt that he understood the tone Miss Jia Lin Na used when she mentioned her. The other party's narcissism was indeed a bit excessive.

"But even so, we just met, and you..."

Unexpectedly, the witch replied:

"Oh, do you think I am that kind of shallow girl? No, I am not."

She finally stood up, and even pulled Xia De, letting him stand up too. The witch took a deep breath. The lightness of her whole body at this moment was something she had never experienced before, but she still continued to say to Xia De seriously:

"I confessed to you, not just because of your 'beautiful' appearance, but also including perfection in every aspect such as soul, cultivation, knowledge, etc. Yes, in my eyes, you are perfect in every aspect."

She raised her neck slightly, which reminded Xia De of a white swan:

"As for myself, maybe I am not necessarily the best in every aspect, but I can guarantee that I am the most beautiful after combining many aspects."

She nodded to herself:

"I tasted powerful strength from your blood, and your soul is definitely not weak. I believe that more than one girl has praised your outstanding appearance, and the unique temperament you have is even more extraordinary. I have never met someone like you. It's like being arrogant, but also very humble, like being very kind to me, but actually having a sense of alienation."

She finished these words in one breath, and finally asked again:

"Then, Mr. — I'll call you that for now, I'm not joking with you, are you willing to let me pursue you?"

She pointed to herself again:

"Forgot to introduce myself, my name is Vigo Valeria Astley."

"Astley?"

Xia De had heard this surname at Mr. Old Laibury's place in the morning.

"I am John Watson, yes, this is a fake name, my real name is not convenient to reveal for the time being."

Xia De also introduced himself. The situation was unclear, and he felt that the witch in front of him was different from any girl he had met before. The outsider was not good at getting along with such girls.

And Miss Astley didn't care at all that Xia De used a fake name:

"Hello, Mr. Watson, welcome to Arcadia City~"

She said quite seriously:

"Please forgive my presumptuous confession to a beauty like you just now. I just can't help it when I encounter beautiful things, and I am deeply attracted by the scent of your blood. Please believe that I am absolutely serious. In addition, please allow me to apologize again for attacking you in the library just now and biting your palm after waking up.

I behaved too rudely, but I am definitely not that kind of girl usually."

She bowed to apologize to Xia De, then clicked twice and took off the "limiters" on her left and right hands. After taking a deep breath, although the smog here was serious, she still showed a satisfied expression. This kind of health was something she had never experienced.

"She" in Xia De's ear was still laughing. In fact, "She" had been laughing since just now.

Xia De also took a deep breath. He really didn't want to talk about this topic anymore. He pointed to the two people bound by chains and moonlight rings:

"Miss Astley, I know there is a reason for attacking me, and I don't care about biting my palm. After all, your consciousness was not clear at that time. Can you explain where these two people came from? Also, how should I deal with them?"

The witch had seen those two attackers just now. She clearly knew the intention of the two:

"They belong to the 【Jade Alchemy Association】 and came to trouble me. This is related to some very complicated past events and also involves a high-level relic. You didn't kill them directly just because they attacked you, but wanted to wait until I woke up and asked for my opinion before making a decision—I appreciate you more and more.

Then let's take them away from here first. After all, this is not a place to talk about things."

She blinked at Xia De, and there was a playful expression in the iconic golden eyes of the Great Witches:

"I want to invite you to be a guest at my home. You tell me about your connection with the Council, I will tell you my story, and compensate for my reckless behavior just now—Mr., you don't want to miss the friendship with another Great Witch in the Council, do you?"
