Whose youth romance story begins with a witch's trial?!

"That's right, what I am, whether I'm a holy son or a creditor, is not something you should be considering. It's my own business!"

"Eh...?" Meruru blinked as she looked at Chang Rong, who was forcefully reciting CEO romance novels.

"You haven't fully recalled the details yet, have you? Well, I can't remember them at all either, so let's just leave it alone!"

"No, I don't care...!? No, no, no, we can't just ignore this, I might... Waaah!?" Meruru tried to argue softly, but was immediately flicked on the forehead again. Three hits in a row, shocking the world!

"Whether it's judging you, forgiving you, or executing you—that's all my authority, and has nothing to do with you, you jellyfish!" Chang Rong stood up, patted his chest, and then pointed at Meruru in a rude and impolite manner, saying loudly.

"Jellyfish...?"

"That's right! Listen up, you stupid jellyfish. Don't think about anything else. Right now, you're just my possession! I have the right to do whatever I want with you, so—you don't need to think about anything else, understand!"

Chang Rong's tone carried an undeniable air of dominance, instantly stunning the Ice Meruru who was still struggling with self-destruction.

A few seconds later, a blush returned to Meru's pale cheeks on the ice.

Ownership... I am Chang Rong-sang's ownership...

“I…I understand, Chang Rong-san…! Since it’s property…I, I’ll cut off my own limbs and then chain them securely to you, Chang Rong-san—”

"Quack, that's not what I meant!?"

Faced with the drooling, panting Meru on the ice, Chang Rong's tough and aggressive attack mode didn't last more than a few minutes before she instantly became listless and shrank back in fear.

Ah, you're right... No matter what, you must be, my holy son, who belongs only to me... That's the one thing I can be absolutely certain of...

As she pounced on Chang Rong, frantically dribbling and charging at him, the ice skater, who was much taller than Bao Shengma, thought to herself with a warm feeling.

------

"Zzz... Meow? You idiot big-breasted girl, don't even think about touching Onii-chan... Hmm?"

Amid Chang Rong's wails, Ze Du Ke Ke, who was sleeping soundly on the sofa, was suddenly awakened.

She wiped her drool and breathed on it, then saw Chang Rong and Mei Lulu standing together in a quiet scene, as if nothing had happened.

"Thank you for your hard work, Coco-chan. Meruru is awake now, let's go back and rest too," Chang Rong said with a smile, ruffling Ze Du Coco's head.

"Hehehe... Okay, Onii-chan, really... Next time, just leave these kinds of guys to fend for themselves... Hmm?"

Coco, whose fur had been stroked, revealed a contented and happy smile. Then, halfway through her threatening words, she met Meruru's eyes.

Meruru smiled happily, then slowly walked to Coco's side, gently whispered in Coco's ear.

"Well, um... Miss Coco... you really, really... are such a nobody."

"what?"

"Once Chang Rongsang becomes my one and only Holy Son... please don't come and cause trouble again..."

"Aha!?"

Looking at the seemingly harmless, smiling Meruru on Ice, Zedu Coco was completely bewildered and couldn't figure out the situation for a moment.

"After all, well... although it's a bit rude to say this, but... Chang Rong-san is so perfect, so kind, so outstanding, a being even more dazzling than the Great Witch... if you were to just take her away like this, it would be an outrageous and wasteful act, wouldn't it?"

"Huh?!?!"

Zedu Coco instinctively exhaled three times, but before she could unleash her powerful attack, she saw Ice Meluru finish speaking, then gracefully smile and nod, before placing her hands together on her lower abdomen and following Chang Rong out of the infirmary with an elegant and courteous posture.

"..."

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Ze Du Ke Ke rushed to the bedside without saying a word and started groping around.

"No, no, that's not right. I don't have [Vision] magic, what good would touching this thing do me...!"

Zedu Coco got angry and quickly turned around to chase after the two, trying to figure out what exactly happened in the infirmary when she was introducing her granddaughter's future husband to her grandfather in her dream.

Meluru on Ice —→ [85/100]

I have a feeling that if this continues, it will eventually turn into midnight updates...

I might as well take a day off to adjust my biological clock...

Chapter [90.5 - 4.5 = 86]

It seems like nothing's changed, even though I'm practically sick of typing every day ^q^...

192. Superman's promise: If you don't keep your promise, Superman will...

It's quite rare that today is a day when my nose wakes up before my head.

Before her brain could even fully awaken from the dream, Chang Rong's nose was jolted awake by a certain scent. The smell was so strong that it forced the rest of her body to crawl out of the warm bed.

Good morning, Chang Rong.

"Good morning, Nanoha Kaori... uh, um..."

Chang Rong groggily got out of bed, sniffling as she stared blankly at the black-haired girl with twin ponytails wearing a cycling helmet sitting upright on the sofa in front of her, and the tall guard with a headband who was almost always by her side.

"Because I found more near-expiry chocolates in the warehouse, I made some chocolate bread this morning. Please have it for breakfast if you don't mind, Chang Rong."

Nanoha Kurobe brought out a plate with a delicious-looking chocolate bread on it, which was the source of the 'fragrance' that had been wafting through the air. The aroma of wheat and butter milk was already quite rich, and when combined with the sweet and bittersweet scent of chocolate, it brought a sense of pure bliss just from the aroma alone.

"It smells so good...! But that Nanoha fragrance, and Onee-sama, you guys, uh..."

"As an accomplice, I hope you, Chang Rong, can slowly savor this baked chocolate bread and then give your evaluation of its color, aroma, and taste. It would be even better if you could be captivated by it, rather than asking questions like, 'Why are you in my bedroom again, Nanoha Kaori?'"

"So why are you and my sister in my bedroom again, Nanoha Kaori!?" Although Nanoha Kaori had already read Chang Rong's thoughts, it didn't stop her from saying it out loud.

Seeing a beautiful girl smiling and saying good morning to you on your pillow first thing in the morning, and even thoughtfully preparing chocolate bread for breakfast, should be a very heartwarming scene... However, considering the lock on the front door, this scene, which has been observed for two consecutive days, has become somewhat terrifying.

Yesterday, after returning from the infirmary, I took Coco and Meruru to the kitchen and cooked a small meal. Before going to bed, I made sure I locked the goblin room door from the inside. I even pushed and pulled it several times to confirm... How come Nanoha still respawned?

"Hmm... perhaps it's some strange magic from the veterans. After all, there are still many unsolved mysteries hidden on this witch island." Kurobe Nanoha rested one hand on her chin, striking a thoughtful pose, and gave a deliberately cool response.

"The magic of the veterans...? That's certainly a possibility." Chang Rong agreed with Nanoha Kaori's explanation and nodded in agreement.

"Hiss hiss hiss—" As for the older sister standing to the side, after seeing Chang Rong's 'hehe he believed it!' look, she put on a smug 'I told you so' attitude towards Nanoha Kaori.

This guy is easy to fool; any excuse will do, and sometimes he'll even convince himself without one. I bet if he were stripped naked and collared one day, he'd suspect it was his seniority that was pulling the strings.

"Anyway, please try it if you don't mind." Naoya Kaori handed the chocolate bread to Chang Rong, who nodded his thanks, took the bread, and put it in his mouth.

"Hmm... The chocolate on the outer shell and the filling have slightly different flavors, providing different layers of texture. The bread itself is also very soft, and the slightly salty seasoning is the perfect finishing touch... Strange, why do I feel like I can't stop eating it?"

Chang Rong became more and more addicted to the food, and felt as if she were flying in the sky.

"...Hmm." Watching Chang Rong grow bigger and bigger, gradually sinking into her...too...too...! Kurobe Nanoha Kaori nodded secretly.

Indeed, the way to someone's heart is through their stomach, and to win someone's stomach, you need to occasionally treat them to a little bit of protein powder...

"Is there more? No, no, it's really delicious. As expected of Nanoha Kaori! Her skills are amazing!" Chang Rong hurriedly wiped his drool and shook his head vigorously, suppressing the strange urge to rush over and hug her leg and say, "Sister, give me another bite."

"Is the dosage not quite enough...? Anyway, I'm so glad you like it, Chang Rong. If there's a chance, I'll teach you how to make it, whether it's chocolate or chocolate bread. So what's the schedule for today? Shall we continue with the mine-clearing operation?"

For a fleeting moment, Naoya Kaori showed a look of disappointment, but she quickly adjusted her mindset, nodded in response to Chang Rong's praise, and then asked expectantly about today's work.

"No, let's not continue with the mine-clearing today. Nanoha, you can't keep using your [Vision Magic]. It not only puts a strain on your body, but also affects your mental state if you see too many images for too long... Nanoha?"

Chang Rong waved his hand to indicate that it was a day off, but Kurobe Nanoha Kaori froze on the spot after hearing this, showing a surprised expression of being completely unaware of the situation.

"Big sister, this is different from the scene we rehearsed before...!" Nanoha Kaori looked at the guard with the hairband behind her, her expression somewhat helpless and panicked.

Why did you give me a day off?! This heartless boss shouldn't be like this! You should have dragged me around having hallucinations every day, making me so exhausted that I had to go to the infirmary to rest, and then you would have taken care of me by my bedside, and I would have kept you locked up by my side under the pretext of being too weak and needing to rest for a long time!

Plans can't keep up with changes, and things have come to this—

"Hiss hiss hiss!" "Straight, isn't this going way too far, Sister!?"

Nanoha Kurobe looked at her older sister with pitiful eyes, hoping to gain the wisdom of the veteran. The veteran, however, believed her own superior wisdom told her that this was the time to use her superhuman strength to easily surpass Chang Rong.

"...?" Looking at the bizarre scene in front of her, where Nanoha was blushing and desperately trying to block the guards with her hairband from getting closer, Chang Rong even wondered if the chocolate bread was really meant for her. Why did her older sister seem to want to start a game with her right there and then?

Just as Nanoha Kaori stopped the guard with the hairband, trying to prevent a shocking and extraordinary case from happening right under her nose, another set of footsteps came from outside the door.

"Wait...why is someone else here!? We shouldn't be waking up this early...oh well, what can I do!"

Snap—whoosh!

"So, Nanoha Kaori, you didn't need to run away—wow, that window-jumping move was so cool!"

As always, Naoya Kaori reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on when she heard footsteps. Although Chang Rong thought there was no need for her to run away, since she was just there to deliver breakfast.

However, Naoya Kaori's action of opening the window, leaping out, landing gracefully, rolling, and then hiding in the woods was so smooth and fluid that Chang Rong forgot to complain and only wanted to give her landing without splashing water a perfect score.

After her initial shock, Chang Rong looked at the headband-wearing guard who had seemed ready to fight her, but this time, her nagging and foolish younger sister wouldn't be there to get in her way.

"^q^ Haha... I suddenly realized that your cloak is so cool, is it one of the standard ones?" Chang Rong swallowed and asked the cool and mysterious cloaked woman in front of her with a smile.

"Hiss hiss hiss—!"

Unlike Nanoha Kaori, who shyly runs away every time she gets caught simply because she thinks 'breaking the lock and trespassing is wrong,' the veteran older sister doesn't care about any of that and is ready to pounce on you for today's melt-in-the-sky experience without saying a word.

"Chang Rong-san~~ I picked some fresh flower tea, it's very helpful for recovery... Although it seems that Lord Saint doesn't need to recover anymore, it still tastes very good! Hmm... Guardian?"

The footsteps finally reached the room. Ice Meluru, carrying a tray with teacups and a teapot, entered the room with a holy and pure smile, only to witness the bizarre scene of Chang Rong almost being pinned against the wall by the guard.

"Haha, good morning, Meruru. We're rehearsing here."

Chang Rong directly used the same type of false evidence from last time. Since the person involved, Xi Luo, was not present, there was no way to refute it.

"Rehearsal...? Speaking of which, it has a strangely pleasant smell... Hmm, anyway, please have a taste, Chang Rong-san, it's good for your health..."

Meru sniffed curiously on the ice, but 'chocolate bread' was a completely unknown area of ​​Meru's knowledge. She could only describe it as 'strange yet smells good'.

However, Meruru didn't pay much attention. She placed the tray on the tea table, carefully poured the tea, and handed the teacup to Chang Rong with both hands. Then she shrank to the side, looking at Chang Rong with extreme nervousness, just like a student waiting to check whether their college entrance examination score could barely exceed the third-tier university admission line.

"Hmm... It's a very unique flavor. Although it's novel, it's not hard to accept. In fact, it's very fragrant and easy to drink, with a subtle sweet aftertaste. It's delicious!" Chang Rong's eyes widened. She had thought that Meruru's housekeeping skills weren't that great, but the flower tea she brewed was indeed very tasty.

"Chang Rong-san, if you like it, that's really great...!" Ice Meruru breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Chang Rong's happy expression.

"I was thinking, if Chang Rong-san doesn't like it, I might as well just go to the basement and grab a bottle of Witch Killer Potion and drink it all in one go. But, but Chang Rong-san really likes my herbal tea... hehe, so I don't have to die..."

"It doesn't look like it!"

Meruru smiled with relief, but the pressure immediately shifted to Chang Rong.

This isn't flower tea at all, it's gravity collapse liquid...!

"If Your Highness likes it, would you like to go flower picking with me next time? Don't worry, I will teach Chang Rong-sang how to identify flowers that can be used to make flower tea. It's very, very simple, even someone like me can learn it!"

On the ice, Meruru asked timidly, with a hint of anticipation.
