I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 309, 1.21-25: The Girl Imprisoned in the Tower
Dionysus was silent for a moment. He raised his eyes and looked coldly at Mu Yegui with his gloomy phoenix eyes. As if he had heard a joke, he casually asked, "Equality?"

"Isn't it equal? ​​I'm not in a weak position, and you can't do anything to me. So why aren't we equals?" Only the passive party is in a weak position, but Mu Yegui has been proactive from beginning to end, and even actively chose to accept his attacks.

“If you weren’t Samuro, you wouldn’t be standing here alive,” Dionysus said slowly.

“Unfortunately, I was born a Samuro and cannot change my race at will, so your assumption is invalid. And our status remains unchanged.” Mu Yegui’s face was calm, and his tone was devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

Dionysus suddenly burst into a low laugh, acting like a madman who had lost his mind, completely devoid of any decorum. "Hahahaha, what an amusing remark! My abs are aching from laughing so hard. You're really confident. The Samuro's weaknesses are more fatal than any other race's; they can even lead to death if they're injured."

After laughing, he quickly regained his composure, as if his previous actions had never happened. He slowly walked up to Mu Yegui and looked down at her.

"I don't care what Laziness's orders are, but I really do want to kill you right now." He remained in that dazed, drunken state, his words casual yet carrying a chilling killing intent for the first time. Seemingly nonchalant, he was actually exceptionally serious.

"I also want to know where my weakness is, but unfortunately I don't remember where it is. If I am injured and die because of it one day, I can only accept my fate." Mu Yegui raised his eyes to meet his gaze and said softly.

"Isn't your weakness that book? If that book is destroyed, you'll die. That wine is for the book, not for you, since I know it's useless to you." He lifted his eyelids and said lazily.

Mu Yegui was slightly taken aback, and suddenly felt a little dizzy, something he had never felt before.

In a daze, she recalled the introduction to the Nightmare Book.

[Introduction: The moment you sign the contract, your life becomes one with the book, sharing its birth and death.]

So, without her noticing, her life had already been completely separated from Mu Yin's?
Before she could think any further, everything went dark, and she collapsed.

Dionysus caught Mu Yegui's falling body with a casual gesture, his narrow, golden phoenix eyes glancing at jealousy as he asked, "Aren't you nervous? She's with me now."

“I think Sloth wouldn’t want to face Sher’s pursuit immediately, and Sloth…” Jealousy’s words were spoken very softly, so softly that perhaps only he himself knew what he had said.

“I’ve changed my mind. He still needs the Dark King. If I break the book, it will release the Dark King, and then a lot of trouble will follow. So I won’t hurt her, at least not until the Dark King is taken away.” Dionysus casually tossed Mu Yegui to Jealousy and turned to leave.

Jealousy took Mu Yegui and held her in his arms, his dark orange eyes filled with a complex emotion.

Did she get drunk because the book got drunk?
It seems like this is the first time I've seen her drunk...

Her exquisite, beautiful face, as perfect as a doll's, was now flushed with a slight blush, something that had never appeared on her previously pale face.

Dark orange eyes silently scanned the unfamiliar yet familiar face, from the eyebrows to the nose and finally to the rosy lips. As if by magic, jealousy slowly lowered its head.

Dionysus was walking along when he suddenly turned his head and saw Jealousy's ill intentions. His lips twitched slightly, and he said, "Let me remind you, you'd better not do such a thing in front of me. Even if I'm not under the Duke of Arrogance's command, I will still report it to him."

“I didn’t do that,” Jealousy said, looking up with a light laugh.

He showed no panic at being caught red-handed with ulterior motives, and calmly denied it to Dionysus, his thick skin showing not even the slightest blush or shame.

Dionysus: "..." At first, he didn't pay much attention to Sloth's statement about always being mindful of jealousy, but now he realizes that Sloth was right; this guy really does need to be watched out for.

He walked up to Jealousy, stretched out his hand, and said, "I'll carry him. I'm just afraid someone will lose control first."

“You’d have to have that kind of organ first,” Jealousy said with a light laugh.

“You actually thought about it, you lecherous man,” Dionysus frowned and said. “My master, whom I admire, is here. Is he even a man if he can resist?” Jealousy lowered his eyes and spoke slowly. No one knew whether what he said at that moment was true or false.

"I didn't realize you treated her like your master." He said honestly, his jealous attitude was ambiguous from beginning to end, making people think that he admired Mu Yegui, but sometimes his attitude was very strange, not like that of a lover at all.

Her long, curled, misty gray eyelashes fluttered slightly, as if she were about to wake up.

Jealousy frowned sharply, snapped his fingers, and the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.

It was in a very old royal court, devoid of any decorations, the only thing present being a long staircase and...

At the end of the stairs stood an ancient, black throne.

The throne is carved with a crown covered in thorns, which appears to have pierced and wounded it.

Below the crown are seven different totems, only the second one from the left, a winged sea serpent totem, is lit up, gleaming with a golden light.

Jealousy carried the drunken Mu Yegui in his arms, step by step, up the stairs, and finally stood at the top of the stairs and looked back at the dark abyss below.

He gently placed the girl on the throne and tenderly kissed her eye with complex emotions.

He knelt on one knee in front of her, his right hand gently placed on his left chest, which was closest to his heart, while his left hand cradled Mu Yegui's left hand, which was adorned with a black ring.

The girl leaned against the throne, her eyes closed, only her eyelids twitching slightly, as if she was about to wake up.

“Although I’ve always called you Master, I haven’t actually performed the master-acknowledgment ceremony yet. Why don’t we do it together now?” Jealousy’s blue-streaked, tousled hair turned gold in an instant, and he looked up at the girl quietly.

The girl slightly lifted her eyelids, slowly opening her cold, silver vertical pupils, her gaze gradually focusing on the jealous face.

"You asked me to give you an answer about how I feel about you. I thought about it for a long time, and in the end, I only got one answer."

"I have never been a prisoner of love, and my love for you is not the kind of pitiful love you might have. I am just a faithful believer who longs to be close to his or her God, yet I still want to possess and defile my faith."

"I think I'm beyond saving, but I don't want to be cured. Because I'm instinctively jealous of everyone who gets close to you, and this ugly emotion makes me extremely enjoy it, as if I 'love' my god."

"I have you." He parted his thin lips slightly, gazing at the girl's silver vertical pupils with a light smile, as devout as a faithful believer.

The hand that was placed on his chest slowly moved down and pierced his abdomen without hesitation, digging out a blood-soaked rib.

He broke one of his own ribs.

Jealousy lowered her head and used her own strength to make a delicate little bone ring from her rib, which she then slipped onto Mu Yegui's left index finger.

His dark orange eyes gleamed with an unfathomable depth, and the corners of his lips curled slightly upward.

[The Seven Deadly Sins - Envy: I hereby pledge my loyalty to Muyegui, dedicating my life to him as my master, with no second thoughts or betrayal, as evidenced by this bone-binding vow.]

Attention everyone! Seven lanes, jealousy has caused a false start!!
