Subaru Natsuki, who returned from the new Three Kingdoms

But the moment she made up her mind, she saw Subaru Natsuki squat down in front of her with a serious expression, pull out a handful of green things, and hold them to her lips:

"The best quality mung beans."

"Have some."

Capela was stunned.

She had tensed up every inch of her body that could be defended, and even her mind was firmly locked on the Witch Factor, for fear that Subaru Natsuki would find any opportunity to touch her and take the Witch Factor.

After all that effort, this is all the man could come up with?

Is this really a human?

Looking at Subaru Natsuki, Capela realized for the first time that there were significant gaps in her knowledge and experience.

After obtaining the Witch Factor, she traveled to many places and met all sorts of people in order to collect capable 'children'.

Among those he tormented, there were quite a few who wanted her to repent.

Some knelt and begged for mercy, others hurled insults, some tried to exploit her arrogance, and still others attempted to sway her with kinship, love, and faith.

Unfortunately, none of them worked for her.

After a long pause, Natsuki Subaru actually squatted down in front of her and handed her mung beans.

And those mung beans were raw?

In that instant of distraction, Capela felt another portion of power being pulled out from deep within her body.

Her gaze suddenly changed, and she immediately regained her composure, forcefully activating the witch factor to sever the strange pull.

No response.

It cannot be shaken.

We must not let this man continue to touch my spirit.

Capela kept her eyes tightly shut, completely ignoring the mung bean Natsuki Subaru offered her.

Natsuki Subaru waited for a while, but seeing that she had no reaction, the expectation on his face slowly faded.

"Don't you like to eat it?"

Capela still did not answer.

"These are top-quality mung beans."

Natsuki Subaru picked one up and waved it in front of her.

“My old Huangfeidian (a type of cat) especially loved eating this. Every time I took it out, it would practically bury its head in the bowl.”

Capela's eyelids trembled slightly.

She didn't understand what "Zhuahuang Feidian" meant.

But she could tell that Subaru Natsuki seemed to genuinely regard her as a horse.

'If I become emperor in the future, I will definitely execute you first!'

This made her so angry that her brows trembled uncontrollably.

Seeing that she still didn't move, Natsuki Subaru couldn't help but rub his temples.

"A mount with its own thoughts is indeed difficult to handle."

"If only I could control my mind."

It's a pity that the expert got away yesterday....

Natsuki Subaru sighed, the image of that blue-haired figure appearing in his mind.

This statement heightened Capela's vigilance even further.

He really wanted to control himself?

What a vicious fellow.

With such an arrogant attitude, one might even believe he was the "Arrogant Bishop" Capella.

Natsuki Subaru had no time to care about Capela's feelings at the moment; he was already immersed in his regret of not being able to learn mind control.

The thought of mind control brought back his resentment towards Guan Er and Zhang San.

Liu Bei was incredibly skilled, but despite following him for so long, he learned nothing except being constantly bullied by two anthropomorphic creatures.

Natsuki Subaru grew angrier the more he thought about it, and his fists slowly clenched.

In fact, Natsuki Subaru had already made up his mind before he died of illness in Xuchang.

They wanted to fight these two anthropomorphic creatures to the death on the battlefield of Guandu to avenge the grudges of the past.

"It's hateful that God didn't give him a chance!"

At this point, Natsuki Subaru suddenly fell into deep thought again.

"But thinking about it carefully, God might not have given me no chance."

He looked up at Capela, his eyes gradually brightening.

"After all, I still have the opportunity to return to the Three Kingdoms period."

As long as I learn medicine and cure my physical ailments, I might as well have a go at those two brothers, the one in black and the one in green!

It's not impossible to find Liu Bei and learn the Benevolent Swords and Mind Control!

"It's fate, it's all fate."

Although Capella couldn't understand, she sensed something ominous in Subaru Natsuki's expression.

The man seemed to have thought of something troublesome again.

Could he have actually remembered how to use mind control?

Capela had never heard of any long-term, stable method of mind manipulation; if it existed, she would have already dominated the entire upper echelons of Lugnica.

But judging from the strange behavior of Subaru Natsuki, she dared not gamble...

Subaru Natsuki quickly regained his spirits.

But that's a story for another time. Since mind control isn't working for now, let's try another method.

Since the mounts have no thoughts of their own, they need to be conquered by force and strength.

In other words, a thinking mount can make her feel its personal charm through daily interaction.

Once she is gradually influenced by this personal charm, she will naturally become her mount willingly and wholeheartedly.

Subaru Natsuki then instinctively looked at Capella's feet.

But there was only an empty expanse of ice over there.

Natsuki Subaru then remembered that Capella hadn't even grown legs yet.

Where did the shoelaces come from?

"How hateful! It's fate again."

He sighed.

"As expected, God is still testing our family."

Feeding them won't work, and neither will tying their shoes.

Natsuki Subaru was silent for a moment, then suddenly clapped his hands.

"It seems there's only one last option left."

He sat down in front of Capella.

Tell a joke.

Capela opened her eyes, a bad feeling creeping into her heart.

Subaru Natsuki has already started.

Do you know why feet are whiter than hands?

Capela: "..."

.......

One joke is finished.

Natsuki Subaru was grinning from ear to ear, but Capella remained unmoved.

Natsuki Subaru thought she might not have heard him clearly, so he repeated it.

Capela: "..."

Second time...

Natsuki Subaru laughed so hard he almost fell over, but Capela remained unmoved!

And so—

The third time...

Natsuki Subaru laughed until tears streamed down his face.

At this moment, Capela finally realized something was wrong. Was this kid going to keep repeating those two sentences?

What does he think he is? Does repeatedly entering the same term generate new replies?

Capela's eyes widened, and for a moment his heart skipped a beat.

Buhou!

She quickly calmed the witch factor.

The next second, the fourth time came...

The fifth time...

The sixth time...

Capela's expression gradually became empty.

Capela had only one question on his mind: how did this person in front of him survive until now?

Capela momentarily lost his focus.

The pull immediately reappeared.

She steadied herself abruptly, her face so dark it was almost dripping with gloom.

Natsuki Subaru, however, thought she was just not smiling.

"It seems that taming this mount is indeed more difficult than I imagined."

He summarized earnestly:

"But it's okay."

As the saying goes, even the most virtuous woman can be swayed by a persistent suitor, and even the finest horse can be deterred by an acquaintance.

"Starting today, we'll take you out for walks."

"Now I'll take you with me."

"Take me with you when the future comes!"

"Hahahahaha!"

A hint of fear finally surfaced in Capela's eyes.

She didn't know where Natsuki Subaru planned to take her, nor did she know what kind of torture this man's so-called walk would turn into.

For the first time in her life, she longed so much for that red-haired swordsman to be by her side...

Subaru Natsuki has already freed himself from the other restraints around the ice.

He led Capela out of the dungeon, grabbing her by the hair and walking towards the outside.

Elsa remained where she was, but was completely drunk and unconscious.

……

Just after Subaru Natsuki left with Capella, Roswaal was still observing the battle situation outside the mansion from the sky.
