My wife, who's in a vegetative state, please stop eavesdropping on my thoughts.

Historically, every few years during the Black Realm campaigns, there have been cases where 7th- or even 6th-tier transcendents have never returned.

It wouldn't be surprising if the entire army was wiped out.

This time, the urgency is far greater than ever before, and we may encounter an unprecedented disaster.

Therefore, Adele cannot guarantee that she will come back alive.

Back then, her and Elune's father, the previous head of the Selene family, died in battle during the campaign against the Dark Realm.

Furthermore, not long after, Elune became a vegetable, a double blow that was a devastating blow to Adele, who had just taken over the Selenes family.

Aunt Bai

"if......"

Adele's voice was very soft, so soft that it sounded like she was talking to herself.

"If, by any chance, I don't come back."

"Elune, I'm counting on you."

This is clearly why Adele was so eager to announce the marriage.

I was in a huge rush, but there was nothing I could do.

She has no time left.

The marriage partner must be decided before participating in the extermination of the underworld.

After a long silence, the white cat nodded gently.

"Okay, you can go without worry."

"No matter who you choose in the end, I will watch over them and never let Elune suffer any injustice."

"it is good......"

Adele affectionately patted the white cat's head, then turned and walked towards her room.

After walking a few steps, she stopped again.

"By the way, Aunt Bai."

"Hmm?" The white cat looked up.

"I will be in charge of arranging the process for the test in two weeks. No matter what happens then, you must not interfere."

"Um......"

Then, the footsteps faded into the distance.

The moonlight continued to shine quietly on the empty corridor.

The white cat lay on the windowsill, its vertical pupils reflecting the distant horizon.

In that direction, deep within the night, a massive, pitch-black silhouette could be vaguely seen.

It stands there, silent and oppressive, like a giant black thorn growing from the depths of the earth, piercing the entire sky and covering nearly ten thousand years of the world's history.

Aside from those with superhuman abilities, ordinary people who merely observe at night have a chance of going insane or dying suddenly.

This is...

The forbidden item numbered 09 is an abyss beyond human comprehension.

黑界

"..."

"..."

The white cat lay alone on the windowsill, gazing at the night sky in a daze for a long time.

Suddenly I feel a little lonely.

Come to think of it, the most fun time was more than a decade ago, when Adele and Elune were still little girls and their mother was still alive.

Especially Elune back then, she was incredibly well-behaved and adorable.

It's practically a scam to make people want to have daughters...

But now, Elune has fallen into a long slumber, and there is a high probability that Adele will never return.

All I can do is stay here and take care of Elune...

Thinking about this...

The white cat suddenly leaped lightly and landed directly on the roof of the mansion.

Several paws moved with soft, gentle steps, without making a sound.

It intends to go and see what these three addicts are doing right now.

The white cat passed by Oliver's room first. A dim candlelight shone through the crack in the door, and the faint sound of a pen scratching across paper could be heard from inside, as if someone was writing a letter.

The white cat didn't stop and continued walking forward.

When I passed by Lorne's room, it was already pitch black inside, and his breathing was long and even, indicating that he had already fallen asleep.

Well, most ordinary people aren't used to nighttime life, so it's normal for them to go to sleep at this time, but...

Have you digested your food?

Finally, the white cat came to Weiss's window.

A faint light shone through the slightly ajar window, and the white cat curiously peered closer—

Then he paused slightly.

Weiss was standing in the center of the room, his arms slightly outstretched, palms facing upwards, and every now and then a slight whirlwind would be released from his palms.

The white cat's vertical pupils widened slightly, as if it were quite surprised by this.

Hey, this guy...

They're actually practicing the abilities of a wind addict?

It was completely unexpected.

These days, Weiss's behavior within the Serenes family can be described as carefree. He eats and sleeps all day long, and his most important task each day is to push Elune to bask in the sun.

Until a few seconds ago, it thought the silver-haired boy had no interest whatsoever in the fight for Elune.

Unexpectedly, he would secretly practice his skills alone late at night!

It seems this guy with 688 has some ideas in mind...

They are young people after all.

There's nothing wrong with appreciating beauty.

however--

The white cat had just thought of this in his mind.

Then Weiss stopped practicing.

He yawned, stretched, and then turned around and walked to the bed with complete ease, falling asleep as soon as he lay down.

"?"

"..."

The white cat 064 outside the window was immediately embarrassed.

Okay, I spoke too soon.

He's the kind of guy who only has a three-minute attention span...

No, this guy hasn't even practiced for three minutes yet!

That's a bit mysterious.

Chapter 19: Are you worthy of Elune?

The next morning.

In front of the gates of the Selenes mansion, several maids were routinely sweeping the silver-gray pebble path.

It's too early; the owners usually won't be up yet.

After observing for a while, they couldn't help but huddle together, pretending to clean while whispering among themselves.

"Hey, did you guys hear? Only one of the three will be left in the end. Who do you most want to be the one left?"

"I feel like as long as it's not that 'aristocrat,' it'll be fine. That guy is so annoying. He always acts like an aristocrat, ordering us around arrogantly one minute, and then fawning over the young lady the next. He's such a two-faced bastard!"

"Yeah, that guy is the most annoying one, the other two are pretty good, don't you think?"

Several maids were whispering among themselves.

The conversation mainly revolved around Oliver's character and bad behavior.

Without a doubt, this guy was universally disliked by the servants of the Selenes family.

Seeing this, a maid who had just switched to the day shift blinked curiously.

"I haven't served him yet. Is he really that annoying? I saw him from afar once before, and he seemed alright..."

Upon hearing this, the other maids paused, exchanged glances for a moment, and then began to tease each other in unison:

"Okay, your husband."

"Your husband"

"Your husband, your husband"

"Click, click, click!!!"

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps came from the doorway.

The maids all looked up and, upon seeing the newcomer, immediately put down their brooms and bowed their heads respectfully.

A blue-haired girl was seen walking aggressively toward the mansion gate.

She was about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a finely tailored lake-blue short skirt, pure white semi-transparent pantyhose that covered her straight and slender legs, and a pair of blue leather shoes tied with bows.

But what's most striking is her hair.

Her long, sea-blue hair was tied into two huge pigtails, each one fluffy and thick, swaying dramatically from side to side with her steps, like two mermaid tails tumbling in the air.

The amount of hair was so exaggerated that it was almost enough to be used as a broom, dragging on the ground.

The girl's features were exquisitely beautiful, but no one knew who had offended her. At this moment, she was frowning and stepping into the main gate of the Selenes family mansion with an imposing and accusatory air.

Nefertir Wilderges.

The only daughter of the Wilderness family, she is one of the top noble families in Moonlit City, along with the Serenenis family.

As Miss Elune's close friend before she fell into a deep sleep, the maids naturally recognized her.

Even after Elune became a vegetable, Neferpire was the only outsider who would come to visit her every few days.

"marry!?"

"Marrying a complete stranger she's never even met!?"

How could this kind of thing happen?

It might be allowed!?

Nefert almost gritted her teeth as she uttered those words to herself.

She found out about the news last night and immediately overturned the dining table in a fit of rage.

But due to the curfew, she couldn't go out. After staying up all night, she rushed to the Selenes family to demand an explanation as soon as it was dawn.

"What exactly is Adele thinking?"

"How could she normally make such a decision? Could she have been hypnotized by some evil supernatural being?"

The more Nephilim thought about it, the stranger it seemed.

She wanted to confront Adele herself and find out what was going on!

Filled with rage, Nefertir strode across the main gate of the mansion.
