Those ugly aspects of her that she had never shown to outsiders, and that she herself felt ashamed of, were all revealed to that man without reservation.

Really...

Oh no, the urge is acting up again.

Eileen instinctively squeezed her legs together.

"Mother?"

Erza's voice rang in my ears.

Eileen snapped out of her daze and found her daughter looking at her strangely.

"what happened?"

“I called you several times,” Erza asked, puzzled. “What were you thinking about just now? You seemed so distracted.”

“It’s nothing.” Eileen shook her head, looked in Hope’s direction, and said calmly, “Whatever he’s doing, it’s best not to disturb him right now.”

"Let's go back."

The crimson magical light shone once more.

The four disappeared from the mountaintop and returned to the manor's restaurant.

Cana and Erza sat back down in the restaurant and continued eating breakfast, discussing where they should go for a stroll later.

Mirajane... finds herself not in the restaurant, but in an unfamiliar room.

The room was very large and tastefully decorated.

Dark solid wood furniture, heavy velvet curtains, several landscape oil paintings hanging on the walls, and hand-woven Persian carpets on the floor.

A faint fragrance filled the air, a blend of rose and lavender.

"This is......"

Mirajane looked around, and before she could react, she heard a soft "click" behind her.

She turned around and saw Eileen close the door, lightly tapping the lock with her finger, and a crimson magical light flashed.

The room was completely sealed off by magic.

Mirajane's pupils contracted slightly, and she instinctively stood up, looking at Eileen warily.

"Lady Eileen? What's wrong...?"

"take it easy."

Eileen leaned against the door, arms crossed, a playful smile on her lips, her gaze slowly sweeping over Mirajane.

That gaze didn't seem to be looking at a junior, but rather as if it were examining a fine work of art, with scrutiny, appreciation, and a hint of... danger that was hard to define.

Mirajane's intuition told her that something was wrong.

Being teleported here was not a mistake, but something Eileen did on purpose!

"Lady Eileen," Mirajane suppressed her unease, her face still bearing a gentle smile, "Is there something you wish to discuss with me privately?"

"of course."

Eileen left the doorway and walked step by step toward Mirajane in her high heels.

With each step she took, her aura grew stronger.

It wasn't just the oppressive power of magic, but also the aura of a superior who had experienced the vicissitudes of life and looked down upon all living beings.

Mirajane instinctively took a step back, her back hitting the cold wall.

There is no turning back.

Eileen walked up to her, reached out and lifted her chin, forcing the flustered girl to look her in the eye. "Mira-chan, you've discovered my secret, haven't you?"

Mirajane's pupils suddenly contracted.

It's just a single, mature woman venting her frustrations alone at night; everyone can understand that. Why does Eileen have to target herself like this?

Seeing the change in Mirajane's expression, Eileen's smile deepened. "You really did find out."

"In order to keep this secret, I have to take some special measures to shut you up."

Isn't it just for my own amusement?

Why is there an atmosphere of wanting to kill someone to silence them?

Mirajane felt a chill run from the soles of her feet straight to the top of her head. Just as she was about to explain, four crimson magic ribbons suddenly wrapped around her wrists and ankles.

Completely powerless to resist, Mirajane's limbs were firmly fixed to the wall, her whole body in a "T" shape.

Eileen reached out and gently unbuttoned the top button of Mirajane's white shirt with her fingertips.

"What...what are you going to do?!" Mirajane's voice trembled.

"What?"

Eileen chuckled softly, her fingertips slowly tracing across Eileen's collarbone, raising goosebumps. "Of course, I'm checking to see if my daughter's friend is developing normally."

Oh no! It's QQ Space!

Mirajane's pupils dilated, and she screamed in fear.

"Hope! Help me!"

Chapter 434 Following One's Heart

At the same time, on the top of the hill behind.

The morning mist has dissipated, and the sunlight is shining even brighter.

Hope, who was still sitting cross-legged in mid-air, seemed to sense something and suddenly opened her eyes, subconsciously turning her head to look towards the center of the manor.

"Mira?"

Sensing Eileen's magic, Hope hesitated for a moment before turning back. Perhaps it was a mistaken feeling; with Eileen in the manor, no one could pose a threat.

Unless it's a formidable enemy that even Eileen has to fight with all her might.

But if such a guy really came, Hope would have already gone to kill him.

Unfortunately, Hope was unaware that, due to the misunderstanding between the two, Eileen had become Mirajane's greatest danger.

Without further ado, Hope closed her eyes again.

A gentle breeze blew by, stirring the hem of his clothes and strands of his hair.

If there were a powerful expert who was proficient in 'magnetic field power' present, they would have noticed that Hope's magnetic field power was steadily increasing at this moment.

1000 horses......

2000 horses......

5000 horses......

The magnetic field power surges through the meridians, like the mighty Yangtze River.

The power was growing wildly, increasing with every breath.

This is neither meditation nor enlightenment.

"Magnetic field power" is a power of the mind. It does not depend on external spiritual energy or magic, but originates from the cultivator's own talent, will, and belief.

As long as one follows their heart and remains steadfast in their beliefs, most people with strong magnetic fields can experience rapid growth in their power.

And that is exactly the state Hope is in right now.

Last night, he "defeated" Erza, Mirajane, Kana, and the beautiful Irene who offered herself to him in one night.

One spring breeze, and the flowers bloom four times.

The magnetic field power allowed his physical abilities to reach an unbelievable level; his endurance, recovery ability, and control were all far beyond what ordinary people could comprehend.

in other words.

He can go on for as long as he wants, and he can be as fierce as he wants.

The exhilarating night completely dispelled any lingering worry Hope had about due to the previous "nine deaths and one life" divination.

After sending Eileen back to her room, Hope, feeling something, went alone to the quiet, deserted back mountain to begin to comprehend the power.

He no longer suppressed his desires, nor did he pretend to be his true nature.

He admitted that he was a womanizer.

He admitted that he was a womanizer.

He admitted that the feeling of immorality was a thrill.

But so what?

He doesn't steal or rob, he doesn't force or coerce; every woman is with him willingly.

He was good to them and was willing to give everything for them.

The moment this thought took root in her mind, Hope felt a sense of relief, as if she had broken free of invisible shackles.

In less than half a day, from dawn to daytime, Hope's power surged by 2 horsepower, bringing his cultivation level to 22 horsepower.

This is the terrifying aspect of 'magnetic force' following one's true nature.

So what kind of person is the real Hope?

Ha! It's just a cheap little silver worm!

......

Two more hours passed.

The power increased by another 5000 horses.

Hope felt that his cultivation breakthrough was almost complete, so he stopped cultivating.

This time, he gained a clear and thorough understanding of himself, and his strength also improved. Although he failed to break through to 23 horsepower, Hope was still in a good mood.

Even a growth of just one unit of magnetic field power is incredibly precious.

Hope looked down at his palm, his fingers spread wide, a faint but powerful current of electricity leaping at his fingertips.
