I'm not just human!

This time, the knocking was very soft, carrying an indescribable gentleness.

Xia Fa paused slightly, put on his slippers, walked to the door, and whispered:

"Who?"

A girl's voice suddenly came from the doorway:

“Xia Fa, it’s me…”

Chapter 173 A New Entity Appears? A Being Completely Different From the Past!

Xia Fa was slightly taken aback:

"Lillens?"

Lillian was the most beautiful of all the Augustus family girls at the banquet.

At the dinner table, Lillian had repeatedly clinked glasses with him, her cheeks flushed and her eyes full of affection. He never expected that she would actually come looking for him!

"Um...yes...can you let me in?"

Lillian's gentle voice rang out from outside the door, trembling slightly, perhaps due to nervousness.

Xia Fa glanced at the bright moonlight outside the window, then at the luxurious and grand room, and at the faint fragrance, like the scent of a young girl.

He turned the brass doorknob and opened the door.

Lillian stood gracefully at the door, wearing a sheer, form-fitting long dress. Her figure was enveloped in the hazy platinum fabric, her curves alluring yet dignified and elegant.

Beneath her long, golden hair, her jade-green eyes were misty, as if she were truly drunk.

"I...I have trouble sleeping and I'd like to chat with you, is that okay?"

After she said those words, she couldn't believe it herself. For some reason, her swan-like white neck immediately turned pink, and she turned her head slightly away.

Seeing her shy appearance, Xia Fa couldn't help but chuckle. He was about to make up an excuse, mainly because he was too tired today and not in the mood.

But just then, another enthusiastic, bold, yet clear and pleasant voice came from the corridor:

"Shafa! The bathroom in my room isn't working, I—"

The sound stopped along with the footsteps and appeared on the left side of the doorway.

There stood a pretty, blonde girl, staring at Lillian with wide, incredulous eyes.

"Lillens, you...how could you, waaaa...you guys!"

Lillian's face turned completely red, and she frantically waved her hands:

"Marty, no...it's not what you think!"

The girl called Marde turned around and looked at Shafa with a puzzled expression:

"Shafa, you and Lillians...you two wouldn't..."

She seemed eager to ask boldly, but halfway through her sentence, she couldn't bring herself to continue because of the shame in her heart.

Xia Fa was somewhat stunned; he had never experienced anything like this before.

Normally, whether Lillians or Marde came to him alone, he would have to put in some effort to deal with them.

The fact that two beautiful girls came together makes things even more complicated.

It's a little embarrassing to refuse the girls' advances late at night.

But at that moment, Lillians turned to Marde and said:

"Is your bathroom broken? Mine is fine, let me take you there."

Marde was somewhat taken aback. She stared blankly at Shafa, then at Lillians, and nodded as if she had just thought of something.

"Oh... okay then."

Lillian immediately turned around and, with Marde and the two beautiful girls, went to the other side of the palace.

After walking a few steps, Lillians turned around and glanced at Shafa with a hint of regret in her eyes, as if she were hinting at something.

Marde seemed completely clueless about the situation, following behind Lillians.

In the candlelit corridor, the soft footsteps of two girls could be heard, growing ever more distant.

Seeing them finally disappear at the end of the corridor, Xia Fa smiled, shook his head, sighed, and slammed the door shut.

That's good, it'll give me a chance to rest. I'm so tired today.

Lying back on the velvet bed lined with romantic gauze, just before going to sleep, Xia Fa, as usual, meditated, slowly ascending to the boundary between his spiritual body and his astral body.

No matter what, he killed Pompeii, a demigod, at the Eagle level. Although he didn't fight an angel, his understanding of the overlord-level secret contract, the Gate of Stars, should have progressed quite a bit, right?

Last time, after I finished off the Black Abyss Worm with the Angel rank, my understanding of the Gate of Stars progressed to 59%.

I wonder how much more I can add this time.

As he was thinking this, the luminous sphere formed from his consciousness had already arrived at the boundary between his mental body and his astral body.

The two supreme-level secret contracts, the Silver Throne and the Gate of Stars, were now merging even more deeply, yet they still gave off a sense of independence, which was quite peculiar.

Xia Fa did not hesitate and focused his attention on the Gate of Stars.

The next moment, he felt a surge of joy.

The progress of understanding the Gate of Stars has already exceeded 59%, reaching 62%!

Of course, this was the progress he realized he was about to make after just one glance.

But no matter what, having broken through the 60% mark, I... am now able to master a new secret ability!

Xia Fa immediately began to concentrate and try to understand.

A moment later, he felt the glowing sphere formed from his consciousness suddenly plummet. When he opened his eyes again, he saw a shooting star coming from the Star Spirit Realm, which was like the depths of the universe, trailing a long tail in the air, and crashing into his brow.

It must be said that, while both are new secret abilities, mastering the new secret ability of the Gate of Stars was incredibly easy, completely incomparable to mastering the secret ability of the Silver Throne.

There was no mental storm that would make his mind explode; instead, a little bit of high-dimensional information gathered together and emerged as new knowledge that he could understand.

【All Things Attract Stars】

[Create a gravitational sphere, using its powerful gravity to attract surrounding rocks, trees, soil, water, air, and all other matter, creating a cosmic gravitational star that will collide with the target.]

Xia Fa was taken aback at first, but then a strange expression appeared on his face.

I have a strong sense of déjà vu about this secret bond ability...

Just before setting sail, he gained a new secret ability from the Gate of Stars, which was undoubtedly very good news.

Xia Fa carefully reviewed this secret contract ability several times, planning scenarios in which it could be used.

Gradually, he fell asleep.

But he didn't see that in this magnificent bedroom, outside the huge French window, an eye with two pupils was quietly appearing, staring at him emotionlessly as he slept.

Moreover, those eyes with two pupils seemed about to break through the window glass and get closer to him...

……

Xia Fa slept for a full ten hours.

I didn't get up until 10 a.m., in the bright sunshine.

"Aha--"

He yawned widely, stretched, and felt refreshed. All the fatigue from escaping the Scarlet Agent's bullets and killing Pompeii yesterday was gone.

It has to be said that the rich know how to enjoy life, especially former royalty like the Augustus family.

This velvet bed was so comfortable to sleep in that Xia Fa barely dreamed all night and slept like a log.

After getting up and quickly washing up, Xia Fa changed into the suit he had bought yesterday, which cost over 50,000 yuan, and walked out of the room.

As soon as I stepped outside, I saw a waiter waiting respectfully at the door in the corridor.

"Young Master Xia Fa, you're awake. Good morning."

Upon seeing Xia Fa emerge, the waiter immediately bowed with utmost politeness, even bordering on obsequiousness, and continued:

"Let me take you to the restaurant. Breakfast is ready, with all kinds of cuisines for you to choose from."

Xia Fa was slightly taken aback, then found himself both amused and exasperated.

When did I become a young master?

It seems that although only the core members of the Augustus family know that he has signed the Silver Throne, his status within the Augustus family has already spread among the servants and attendants.

Yesterday, when he killed Pompeii in the form of the Starry Silver Throne, many servants of the Augustus family were naturally present.

But when he finished his private conversation with Marshal Gaius and returned to the garden, all the servants had disappeared.

During the banquet, Shafa specifically asked and learned that all the servants who had witnessed the scenes in the garden had their memories erased by the angel Chalcos using some kind of secret artifact.

If erasing memories were only a matter of erasing ordinary people's memories, Marshal Gaius wouldn't need to take action at all; a veteran angel like Charcus would suffice.

At last night's banquet, Charcus and Samuel specifically instructed him not to let the news of his signing of the Silver Throne, a secret treaty of supreme power, reach the ears of the Selene royal family.

Because they were afraid he would be snatched away by the Selene royal family, for example, that the Selene royal family might marry one of their princesses to him...

In fact, both of these angelic elders believed that His Majesty Octavian might marry Princess Victoria to him!

Not only these two angelic elders, but also the other demigod elders tried their best to persuade him not to reveal his identity as the signatory of the Silver Throne, mainly to prevent the Selene royal family from finding out.

Of course, it was just advice, not a mandatory requirement.

Shafa understood that the angels Charcus and Samuel knew that the Augustusian family and the Selene royal family were not only not at odds, but were actually allies who shared both prosperity and adversity.

So, they probably advised him like this because they were genuinely afraid of being recruited as sons-in-law by the Selene royal family.

As for the unsuspecting family demigods, they were simply afraid that the Selenes royal family might harm them out of jealousy or other motives.

Just like at the Fog Festival, when the news of Princess Victoria becoming a demigod spread, Prince Ariman and other members of the Selene royal family were smug, while Cardanaxo and other elders of the Augustus family were jealous.

Of course, Xia Fa himself didn't care whether he was exposed or not.

He had every reason to believe that, even if he had crushed the "SOS Candy" Dick had given him beforehand, the Crimson Agent would have been able to confirm his identity in some way at the very moment he attacked Pompeii.

So, since his biggest enemy has most likely already set his sights on him, it doesn't really matter whether he exposes himself or not.

In any case, as long as he is careful, the Crimson Proxy will have a hard time killing him.
