Because of the large number of Servants killed in this trial, Xia Yan gained a lot of Master Points. In addition, after Cú Chulainn killed Zhang Hao, Xia Yan also obtained some items from him.

Among them, the portable lightning rod is a rather interesting prop.

【Item Name: Portable Lightning Rod】

[Item Description: A portable lightning rod with magical enhancement effects. It only needs to be carried to activate its effect. It can grant immunity to all lightning attacks and effects with power less than divine lightning and can withstand one divine lightning attack.]

In terms of effectiveness alone, this is a highly targeted item with a very strong targeting effect. However, its drawback is that it is too targeted and not versatile. Moreover, this item costs as much as 35 points in the store, making its overall cost-effectiveness not high.

Xia Yan guessed that Zhang Hao's main reason for exchanging the item was because of Frankenstein's unpredictability. If he had a Servant who would occasionally get emotional and leak electricity, and whose electricity was enough to electrocute him, he would probably buy this item as well.

Xia Yan felt somewhat emotional about Zhang Hao's death, after all, he didn't want to become someone who was used to or even indifferent to killing.

To be fair, Xia Yan didn't think Zhang Hao was a bad person. Unfortunately, even though Cú Chulainn gave him a chance, Zhang Hao still decided to fight to the death.

Under these circumstances, Xia Yan naturally had no reason to back down. All living beings crave survival; it's instinct, and it has nothing to do with good or evil.

"Xia Yan, welcome back!"

Just as Xia Yan was still thinking about Zhang Hao's death, a clear and lovely female voice entered his ears. Immediately afterwards, Xia Yan felt an accessory hanging on his back.

Xia Yan didn't even need to turn his head to know that the person who came must be his goddess.

"I'm back."

Xia Yan reached behind his back and patted Euryale's head, saying, "Eureale, stop cosplaying as a keychain, come down."

"No! You didn't take me with you on this trial. Do you know how worried I was about you? Don't you feel guilty? Don't you have a heart?"

Forehead...

Although Xia Yan knew that Yuri Ellie was putting on an act, he did feel a tiny bit of remorse under her relentless barrage of questions.

"You're not getting rid of me these next few days. I'm going to stick to you all the time! Even when we're sleeping!"

Euryale pressed her advantage.

"No!"

Morgan and Musashi spoke in unison.

Subsequently, unsurprisingly, Yuri Ellie was peeled off Xia Yan by the two of them working together.

Undeterred, Euryale tried several more attacks, but Morgan and Musashi defended them fiercely each time. Infuriated, Euryale stood there stamping her feet. In the end, the goddess could only clutch the hem of her skirt, bite her lip, and look utterly aggrieved.

Seeing that the tension between the three was escalating, Xia Yan immediately stepped in to smooth things over.

"Okay, okay, Euryale, it's definitely not okay for you to stick together all the time, but how about I make it up to you by spending the whole day with you during this break?"

"Three days!"

Euryale immediately raised the price.

"long time."

Morgan didn't hesitate to bargain for Xia Yan.

"Morgan, you!"

Knowing she couldn't beat Morgan, Euryale could only sulk and concede, "Two days!"

"Three hours!"

Morgan doesn't indulge Euryale at all.

"Hey! Morgan! That's going too far! How can you haggle like that!"

"I am the Queen, and I never accept bargaining."

"I'm still a goddess!"

"Hmph, so what if you're a goddess? We just beat one up. Want to try it yourself?"

For some reason, Morgan seemed to have become much more aggressive after returning from the trial, and Euryale felt a little afraid of him deep down.

"Fine, I won't stoop to your level. One day, just one day, that's the most I can give!"

Morgan's eyes flashed coldly, and he was about to speak when Xia Yan interrupted him, saying, "Fine, just one day. Then, Morgan, I'll spend one day with you too, how about it?"

Morgan's gaze softened slightly.

"I'll go first."

"Why should I! I was the one who agreed first," Euryale protested.

Before the fire between the two had been extinguished, Xia Yan felt a soft sensation on his back.

Musashi chuckled and hugged Xia Yan, saying, "Xia Yan, don't forget me! I want a day too."

Xia Yan immediately felt two cold glints.

Well, things are completely in chaos now.

Miss He, who had arrived late and was about to greet Xia Yan, looked at Cú Chulainn in confusion upon seeing this scene and asked, "What happened?"

Cú Chulainn casually tore open a bag of potato chips, popped one into his mouth, and replied, "Nothing much, just that Old Xia's backyard caught fire."

"Um...should we go help them?"

Cú Chulainn calmly replied, "Going there now will only make things worse. Just stay here and watch."

He glanced at Miss Crane and added, "Especially you, you must be careful not to get yourself into trouble. Ever since those two took a bath with Xia Yan, their possessiveness towards their Master seems to have increased considerably. Be careful they don't make you their target too."

"You mean, Boss Morgan and Musashi took a bath together with the Emperor?"

Miss He's gossipy nature was immediately ignited.

"Hey, keep your voice down!"

Unfortunately, Cú Chulainn's intervention was a step too late.

Euryale, who had been arguing vehemently, froze instantly upon hearing Miss Crane's exclamation.

She raised her hand, trembling, and pointed at Morgan, then at Musashi.

"You...and you, you both took a bath with Xia Yan?"

Morgan tilted his head slightly, revealing a meaningful smile, while Musashi whistled and looked away.

The answer is self-evident.

"Um, Euryale, it's not what you think. We didn't actually do anything..."

"Wow..."

Euryale ignored Xia Yan's explanation and ran back to her room crying.

The atmosphere instantly became awkward.

Xia Yan glared at Cú Chulainn, who, knowing he was in the wrong, quickly put down his potato chips and hurried to Euryale's room.

At this point, Euryale wouldn't open the door for Xia Yan. On the contrary, she would be more likely to listen to Cú Chulainn, who was a fellow traveler and wouldn't compete with her for Xia Yan's companion.

Then, Xia Yan finally adopted the air of a Master, saying to Morgan and Musashi, "Eureka was just here to welcome us, maybe with some lighthearted banter, but you two went and made her cry. Should I put you in the safe house for a trial or two next time?"

Morgan and Musashi had been with Xia Yan for some time, so they could tell whether Xia Yan was genuinely angry or just pretending. Clearly, Xia Yan was genuinely angry at this moment.

"We can't entirely blame ourselves. It's her fault for making those careless remarks first."

Morgan touched his hair, knowing he was responsible, but unwilling to admit his mistake.

"Okay, okay, we know we were wrong. Xia Yan, don't be angry anymore, okay?"

Musashi held Xia Yan's hands in both, smiling and apologizing, clearly knowing exactly what to do to please him.

Looking at his two beautiful companions, Xia Yan couldn't stay angry forever. However, he still needed to balance the relationships among his followers to avoid ruining them and affecting his trial, as it would also destroy the harmonious atmosphere he had worked so hard to build.
