After all, the two had been intimate all night, and this wasn't a long-distance separation; Xi Luo could come back to stay anytime he wanted.

Although Natalia longed to spend the next day with the young man, she knew it wasn't the right time; Shiro had more important things to do.

Given the cunning and treacherous nature of the evil god, Natalia had a feeling that besides the evil god's phantom appearance that day, there were likely other hidden dangers that had not yet been discovered.

At the manor gate, after watching Shilo leave, Natalia clutched her lower abdomen, feeling the still slightly swaying, incompletely refined jade liquid within, and her lips curved into a soft smile.

But then, that curve disappeared, turning into a chill.

Brushing a strand of hair behind her ear, Natalia's eyes sharpened as she murmured coldly, "The world is going to the dogs... In this day and age, even a philanderer dares to be this bold?"

After saying that, Natalia turned and walked into the manor, the aura emanating from her somewhat frightening.

Meanwhile, Vera, completely unaware of the situation, was still biting her thumb, her brow furrowed with anxiety.

The effects of the Blood Bond continued to take effect. In fact, at the beginning, Vera felt that she had a pretty good chance of winning. After all, her status was there, and she couldn't possibly lose to a mere mortal.

But ever since Shiro defeated Slaanesh, Vera suddenly realized that this guy didn't seem like an ordinary person either.

But the contract had already been signed, and there was no turning back. So Vera wanted to take advantage of the weakened state of Shiloh's body during this period of change to seize him in one fell swoop.

However, the reality was somewhat different from what she had imagined; it seemed that she had been thoroughly taken advantage of.

Despite Vera exhausting all her knowledge (scratch that) to deal with Shiro these past few days, she has been defeated time and time again by monsters with both high stats and complex mechanics.

The terrible consequence of these repeated failures is that the [Blood Bond] makes her increasingly submissive to Xiluo. Right now, it's her body, but when her heart truly reveals the thought of complete "degradation," she will have truly lost everything.

Damn it, what am I going to do...

Vera bit her thumbnail, her face full of worry.

Now that Shiloh is leaving the manor today, there won't be many suitable opportunities to fight him in the future, and therefore few chances to turn the tide—although we haven't found any yet.

Waaah...

Before Vera could figure it out, her heart suddenly skipped a beat, and a chill ran down her spine.

Vera's eyebrows furrowed, and she turned around abruptly, her eyes flashing crimson like a tidal wave, turning the scene behind her blood red.

When Vera saw the person standing behind her, she looked somewhat surprised and said, "Ms. Natalia? Is there anything I can help you with?"

For a fleeting moment, Vera clearly sensed a chilling malice. She wondered what it was, but unexpectedly, Natalia was standing behind her.

"Miss Vera... Shall we talk?"

Faced with the pressure released by Vera, Natalia smiled with pursed lips, her aura completely unwavering. Like a steadfast reef constantly battered by raging waves, she offered no response, yet instilled a sense of powerlessness in others.

Upon recognizing Natalia, Vera gradually withdrew her imposing aura, frowned at her, and asked with some suspicion, "May I ask what you wish to discuss with me?"

"Yeah, what did you talk about...?"

Natalia, with her hands folded in front of her lower abdomen, gracefully strolled past Vera toward the small pavilion in the courtyard.

"For example, the things you did to little Shiloh; for example, cheating on me right under my nose at the restaurant; for example..."

Natalia used "for example" several times in a row. Although there was no anger on her calm and mature face, Vera felt that the other party was like an approaching, heavy dark cloud, wanting to crush her.

Vera raised an eyebrow, surprised that Natalia actually harbored murderous intent. Seeing this, she found it somewhat amusing and said, "Hey, hey, hey, is it really that serious? Why don't you have such a big problem with Shiro's other women, but you're so angry with me?"

After saying that, Vera followed Natalia into the pavilion, plopped down on a chair, crossed her legs, poured herself a cup of black tea, took a sip, shrugged, and chuckled, "Not to mention that I was in a relationship with you much earlier than you, besides, aren't we best friends? We're best friends, what's wrong with sharing a man?"

The porcelain cup in Natalia's hand cracked instantly, and veins bulged on her smooth forehead, beneath her kind smile.

"Miss Vera... seems to really need some education."

After saying that, Natalia put down the porcelain cup in her hand, and finally released a powerful aura from her body, reaching out to touch Vera.

boom--!

With just a single burst of power, a fierce wind arose around them, as if an invisible behemoth was about to tear Vera apart!

However, Vera remained unmoved by this terrifying aura, even exchanging an intrigued glance with Natalia, and said, "Oh, don't be so angry. I'll let you go first next time~"

"Who asked you to give way!"

An angry shout suddenly rang out. Natalia was infuriated by Vera's extremely rude words. She only realized her loss of composure after yelling out, so she quickly composed herself and coldly snorted, "Alright, I'm too lazy to argue with you. I'm asking you, what exactly are you trying to do by getting close to little Shilo?"

After saying that, Natalia tapped the table and said in a deep voice, "I advise you to answer carefully. I'm not joking with you. Whether you can leave here alive today depends on your answer."

In Vera's eyes, Natalia's aura condensed into some kind of chaotic phenomenon, as if a heavy, ancient door stood before her, with a crack faintly open between the doors, revealing an indescribable gaze from behind.

Upon hearing this, Vera's playful smile faded, and she shrugged, no longer concealing the mark of the [Blood Bond].

"Do you think anyone could harm that guy? Ha, he's just pretending to be a good boy in front of you. He's incredibly cunning, and he's always the one who's harming others, okay?"

Sensing the unique aura of Shiro on Vera's [Blood Bond], and with his aura subtly dominating it, Natalia's gaze relaxed for a moment, but then turned somber again.

Seeing Natalia's trembling hand holding the porcelain cup, Vera sensed something was wrong. She crossed her arms in a "?" gesture and frowned, saying, "Hey! You should understand, right? Shiro agreed to this contract, and I can't do anything to him, nor will I hurt him!"

"Of course I know..."

Natalia gritted her teeth and said in a deep voice, as if she was suppressing some kind of emotion.

"Shameless thief!!!"

However, Natalia ultimately couldn't suppress her disgust for the thief. The thought that even she herself wouldn't dare to taste the blood and nectar on Shilo had already been tasted by another vampire made her so jealous that she was almost driven mad.

Vera's pupils constricted, and she instinctively wanted to slip away, but after all, her body was only at the [Erosion Realm] level. In front of the [Crown Realm] level, she would only be grabbed in one fell swoop.

"W-What are you doing?! Don't come any closer—!!!"

Vera keenly sensed that Natalia was about to do something very bad, and quickly reached out to try to pry Natalia's hand off her neck, but the other woman used a slight force to shake her off all the strength.

Staring into Vera's crimson eyes, Natalia sneered, "Heh, you like to sneak food, huh? Then I'll let you eat your fill—!"

After saying that, Natalia's eyes shone brightly red, like a pool of blood reflected in the water. Instantly, it captured Vera's mind, pulling out her memories of Shiloh from the depths of her memory and playing them on repeat in her mind.

"Gurgle—???!!!"

Vera froze as if struck by lightning, then arched her back abruptly like a scalded shrimp, trembling violently as if on the verge of death.

slam-la-

Natalia disdainfully tossed Vera onto the grass beside her, coldly looking down at her as her eyes trembled violently, lifeless.

"Goo-hoo..."

As it happened, Vera was stubborn and wanted to grit her teeth and resist, but the brutal defeat CGs playing in her mind on repeat were too powerful. Her body couldn't resist at all, and the rain instantly soaked through her classic men's and women's dress.

"You can enjoy yourself here, you philandering cat."

Natalia felt a sense of relief as she watched Vera convulse, thinking to herself that it wasn't her fault after all, but rather that little Shiloh was just too amazing.

As Natalia disappeared from sight, she also set up a barrier to prevent Vera from running away.

However, such concerns were obviously unnecessary. Vera was in a very disheveled state at the moment. Her solemn robes were stained with damp mud. Whenever she tried to straighten up to dispel the spell, the intense stimulation would interrupt her actions, causing her to collapse to the ground with her eyes rolled back and her tongue half sticking out.

"Mmm, oh my..."

"Nata...Lia...you just wait...ooh ...

Sunlight streamed brightly into the courtyard, and Vera's broken voice echoed endlessly in the empty space, rising and falling, then rising again, repeating itself for an unknown period of time...

At the main gate of Lorthern Magic Academy, passing students frequently glanced at him, wanting to strike up a conversation, but seeing Xilo's current state, they could only helplessly turn away.

Elena and Irene, who hadn't seen Shiro for a long time, clung to his arm like two ornaments, one big and one small, as if they wanted to meld him into their own bodies.

Walking behind, Aria smoothed her hair. Having recently rewatched the game, she naturally didn't seem impatient. Her serene smile maintained her ladylike manners, as if she weren't the one wildly twisting her waist in the secret room.

How are the preparations going?

Today is Elena and Irene's entrance exam. Shiloh knows what kind of special training they have undergone recently, but still wants to give them extra help before the exam.

"Hehe, Elena and I have become really amazing these days."

"Oh~ then I can look forward to your performance."

Xi Luo pinched Irene's little cheek, and looked at the girl's bright smile, the corners of his mouth curving slightly.

Upon hearing this, Elena pulled Shiloh's arm closer to her and said softly, "If you behave well, I'll reward you."

Shiloh also knew that he hadn't seen Elena for several days. This seemingly cold woman was actually incredibly clingy inside, and he guessed that she had been feeling extremely depressed these past few days.

"Okay, I'll make sure you're full."

Silo smiled and whispered in Elena's ear, mischievously blowing a breath, watching the blush quickly spread across her earlobe, and chuckled twice.

Elena rolled her eyes at Shiloh, but her body language betrayed her, and she hugged him even tighter.

Soon, the entrance exams began, and Elena and Irene, who had skipped grades, took the exams along with the new students.

The test simply examined the theory and practice of casting and constructing magic. Elena and Irene performed perfectly, both achieving near-perfect scores.

However, to Shiloh's surprise, Elena's grades were actually better than Elin's.

"Elena is really amazing..."

When she returned, Irene looked at Elena with admiration in her eyes.

During the academy's tests, neither of them would deliberately lower their scores; they both wanted to score as high as possible to make Xiluo proud.

Therefore, Elena truly passed Irene's test.

Sylvie stroked Elena's hair and said gently, "Elena, you've worked so hard, so very hard. As your partner, I'm so proud of you."

Upon hearing this, Elena's purple eyes widened for a moment, shimmering with a crystalline light. Her cold, aloof lips finally melted, revealing a radiant smile.

"Hmm. I'm glad I didn't disappoint you..."

After saying that, Elena finally couldn't hold back her emotions and threw herself into Shiloh's arms, her delicate shoulders trembling slightly.

Elena's talent is not as good as Irene's, but to achieve such results, she has worked harder and endured more hardship than anyone else.

But all Elena wanted was Shiloh's approval, so she could be of help to him.

Even just a little bit is enough.

The two students successfully completed their entrance ceremony. Just as Shiloh was preparing to relive her long-lost campus life, a voice suddenly came from the testing platform on the other side.

"Mr. Shiloh, please wait a moment."

Ok?

Xi Luo looked in the direction of the sound, a hint of mockery appearing in his dark eyes.

On the other side, there was a testing station specially set up for the elf exchange students. Nora had just finished her test and her brilliant score of perfect marks in both theory and practice amazed everyone.

"May I ask what brings you here, Miss Nora?"

Shiloh's smile was gentle.

Nora frowned as she looked away from Shiloh's hands that were resting on Irene and Elena.

philandering man.

She couldn't understand why a philandering man like Xiluo could win the favor of the gods.

Nora shook her head, recalling her aunt's words of warning not to cause trouble for Shilo. She thought to herself that she only wanted to learn from him, not cause trouble. Then she said, "There are some things about magic that I don't quite understand. Could you please enlighten me?"

wow——

Upon hearing this, everyone perked up and looked in amazement at the elven princess on the stage, who stood calmly and dignified, expressing their admiration for her courage.

Xi Luo chuckled twice and said, "Just asking for advice?"

"Yes, I'm just asking for your advice."

Nora nodded, her eyes serious.

She didn't believe that the gods would be so arbitrary, nor did she have the right to question their decisions.

Nora didn't really know what she wanted, but she couldn't get through it without fighting Shiloh.

As Shiloh walked onto the stage, Nora felt a sense of humiliation as she watched him with his hands behind his back.

“…Mr. Shiloh, like you, I am also a transcendent being of the [Stage of Stars].

Nora held the sword in one hand, her bright golden eyes filled with earnest admonition.

However, Shiloh seemed not to hear, only tapping his chin and muttering to himself, "Ah~ if it were a question to be asked, what kind of magic would be best to use for teaching..."

Seeing Shiloh's completely dismissive attitude, Nora's brows furrowed even more.

After quickly exchanging her breath, Nora said in a deep voice, "Excuse me!" Then, wind magic runes appeared beside her ankles, and her figure suddenly disappeared from the spot. There was only a sharp and piercing explosion, and a sharp sword blade was thrusting towards Shiloh's shoulder!
