FATE: Target of Grand Master

After successfully taking Xia Yan's multiple "firsts" and completely satisfying him, Morgan nestled against Xia Yan's chest, and the two enjoyed the tranquility after their passionate encounter.

Avalon is truly beautiful; it would be even better if there wasn't a succubus constantly yelling "Help!" nearby.

"Xia Yan, please, please save me! It hurts so much!"

Meryl's cries eventually broke the silence between the two. Xia Yan and Morgan could only impatiently put on their clothes and discuss the thorny issue of "how to deal with Meryl".

Although Meryl's motives were impure, she inadvertently helped Xia Yan and Morgan break through the final barrier between them. In addition, since she was still a Servant of Uruk's side, it would be difficult and troublesome to eliminate her directly. Therefore, Xia Yan did not intend to let Morgan waste his magic power on internal strife.

But while the death penalty may be avoided, punishment is inevitable.

Meryl's immoral act of trying to take her husband first still infuriated Morgan. If she didn't give this girl a severe punishment, there would be a second and a third. Even the great witch Morgan couldn't just stay by Xia Yan's side all day and do nothing else.

Seeing Xia Yan and Morgan with their arms crossed, both looking at her, Mei Li was the first to feel aggrieved.

"Ugh... How could you do this to my Avalon without me?!"

"Is the last sentence the key point?" Xia Yan couldn't help but complain.

"Xia Yan, don't try to understand succubi with human morality. That will only make you doubt yourself."

Morgan abandoned her previous gentleness and charm, reverting to her former Queen of Winter persona.

"And don't expect this guy to actually reflect on his actions."

"I agree. Let's lock her up in this tower at the end of the world for a thousand years."

"A thousand years is too short, it must be at least ten thousand years, and my various punishment techniques must not be interrupted."

Seeing Xia Yan and Morgan exchanging words, seemingly about to sentence her, Mei Li protested, "You can't treat me like this, this is vigilante justice! Besides, this is still a dream. Morgan, you can come and go freely in and out of Avalon, but Xia Yan can't leave here without my help."

This is indeed a sore point for Xia Yan and Morgan.

Morgan had already told Xia Yan the key to leaving this place in bed. Both of them understood that in order to leave successfully, they would have to make a deal with Mary.

"How about this? Morgan, you release me, and I'll send Xia Yan back. That way, things will end peacefully, everyone's happy, how about it?"

"Dream on!" Morgan refused without hesitation.

"Then I'll have to keep Xia Yan here indefinitely. Are you planning to just give up on the trial of the Demonic Beast Front like this? And what about the other members of Xia Yan's Master Group?"

The reason why Merry hadn't shown up for the past few days wasn't simply because she was avoiding Morgan. She was also observing Xia Yan and the other Masters' personalities and strengths, and had gathered a lot of information.

With Morgan's help, Xia Yan began to mediate.

"Merry, how about we compromise? I can get Morgan to halve the number of punishment spells, and you send me back, how about that?"

"Xia Yan, even if I did something wrong, my intention in entertaining you was good. You can't tolerate Morgan using torture on me. At least you have to give me my freedom back, otherwise I won't be able to help you in the trials of the Warcraft Front."

"Morgan, if I remember correctly, Meryl hasn't done anything substantial these past few days, has she?" Xia Yan asked Morgan.

"That's right, and not just in the last few days. Didn't Gilgamesh say before that she hadn't done anything useful either?"

"Then we get absolutely no benefit from setting her free."

"yes."

Seeing that Xia Yan and Morgan, the husband-and-wife team, were starting to sing in unison again, Mei Li had no choice but to say, "I promise that after you let me out, I will do my best to help Uruk, and I will never enter Xia Yan's dream again. If you are still worried, you can let me sign a temporary contract with Xia Yan. With Xia Yan's command seal binding me, I definitely won't do anything reckless."

Merry's suggestion did tempt Xia Yan. After all, the reason why Merry could slack off so much and Gilgamesh couldn't do anything about it was mainly because Gilgamesh was just Merry's summoner, not a Master who had Command Seals to bind her.

"Merry, do you really think I can't see through your true intentions? Trying to use this opportunity to sign a contract with Xia Yan? Don't even dream about it. I will absolutely not let you get close to Xia Yan!"

"cut."

Mary turned her head away and muttered something.

"This won't do, that won't do, so what will satisfy you?"

"Morgan, let me speak with Merry alone."

Xia Yan felt that if Morgan were involved, this negotiation would probably never have been completed.

Having just achieved a perfect ending with Xia Yan, Morgan was in a very good mood. After reminding her "not to easily believe the succubus's promises," he stood a little distance away and looked out at the scenery of Avalon.

"Xia Yan, I beg you, I'll do anything if you can get Morgan to let me out. Please, please."

Seeing that Xia Yan had sent Morgan away, Mei Li immediately put on a well-behaved act.

"Alright, Mary, you don't need to force yourself to imitate a human. Regardless of the purpose of tonight's invitation, your intention was indeed to treat me well, and you even pushed me and Morgan aside in the end, so I still have to thank you for that. But, you don't do anything with sincerity, and you can't gain sincerity from others like that."

Mei fell silent, seemingly trying to understand what Xia Yan was trying to say.

"Don't overthink it. What I'm trying to say is exactly what it sounds like. Perhaps, as Morgan said, we can't judge you succubi by human moral standards. But I believe that all things have a spirit, and a spirit has a heart. Try a different approach to things, and you might find new enjoyment beyond just watching the show."

Xia Yan took a breath.

"Alright, I'm not here to lecture you. Let's get back to the present. I can get Morgan to stop using the penalizing spells on you, but you must be imprisoned in this Tower of the End for a thousand years. That's the best I can get for you. As for your so-called assistance and freedom, I don't believe you can't create a clone to travel around. That's all I have to say. The rest is up to you."

Mei fell into a long silence. Xia Yan was not in a hurry. He just sat on the ground outside the black gun cage and quietly watched her.

"Okay. I accept. But, could I invite you to visit Avalon again sometime?"

Xia Yan was taken aback, looking at the white-haired succubus in front of him with a strange expression, as if to say, "You really aren't afraid of death." But after seeing the clear look in Meryl's eyes, which was completely different from before, Xia Yan couldn't bring himself to refuse, so he used words like "we'll see how it goes" to brush her off.
