Chapter 834 - 427: Feeding Myself to the Enchanting Demon
Chapter 834 - 427: Feeding Myself to the Enchanting Demon
"But, it should be fine!" Flora blinked, thinking to herself.
Even though she might have not held back this time, since Herbert tacitly approved, it should be okay, right?
"Hehe~"
Flora, who already had the reputation of being a Wise Man among Demons, found her thoughts even sharper after entering this state of clarity known as Wise Man Mode.
Right, nothing to panic about!
She recalled Herbert’s gentle demeanor before he left not long ago, and she let out a sigh of relief.
Just scaring myself~
Herbert didn’t intend to blame her at all!
"Master... hehe~"
She murmured, her gaze lowered, half-closing her eyes, as she raised her hand to gently stroke her abdomen, tracing over the patterns that were gradually fading.
Flora could feel that she had been bestowed with a rather unique power that aided in the purification of her bloodline.
"With this power, my grasp on breaking through to Epic has increased a bit."
"Moreover, according to the implications in Master’s words, if it’s not enough, I can ask him for more."
"No, he didn’t say that I have to lack it to ask, it seems I can even if I don’t lack it..."
The Enchanting Demon’s eyes lit up, unconsciously licking her lips, blinking as she pondered seriously: "Twice a day? Is that feasible?"
"No, that might be too direct, so let’s extend the time... once every three days!"
The Holy Light Enchanting Demon seriously furrowed her brows, fully utilizing the wisdom that earned her the title of "Wise Man," striving to calculate an appropriate replenishment frequency.
"But, once every three days, isn’t that a bit too long?"
"Once every two days?"
"Or, twice every three days?"
"Hmm... but I also have to consider other people’s schedules."
Flora thought for a moment, then added an item to her plan.
"Together then?"
"Hmm... it might not be impossible."
.
.
"Phew..."
Meanwhile, Herbert, having dressed himself, let out a long breath as he headed to another room in the Holy Sanctuary.
He must declare that he was looking for Valentina and another to reunite—not running away from a fight.
He had won, after all!
Never mind whether it was a big win or a narrow win, what’s important is that he was the victor.
"But I never expected it, really didn’t!"
When he stepped forward with the resolution of "feeding the Demon with his body," Herbert thought this would be another boring war, assuming he could easily claim victory.
Having been repeatedly drilled by Miss Hungry Dragon and Miss Mermaid, he could be considered a battle-hardened warrior of tenderness, not easily defeated by enemies.
At first, the situation indeed went just as he imagined.
As the guide, he completely had the upper hand, easily guiding Flora.
But soon, Herbert experienced a harsh truth firsthand—that efforts are worthless in the face of genuine Talent Ability.
He almost got overturned by Flora!
"Almost got tripped up, really can’t be careless with them."
"Thinking back carefully, it seems like everyone is a master, all have their unique skills."
Herbert reflected that the Monster Girls he was dealing with were indeed no pushovers!
Not a single one.
Their Talent Abilities are all things like endless stamina, perpetual smoothness, blood that stirs emotions... each one with a knack.
If not handled properly, it would be easy for them to counterattack.
This time too, as a mentor, he almost got led by the nose by his trainee.
Had to admit, Enchanting Demons truly were geniuses in close combat.
Enchanting Demons genuinely had a unique talent in this area, possessing an almost instinctive comprehension.
Any move Herbert casually made, Flora could instinctively extrapolate and innovate.
No need to think, it was completely muscle memory engraved deep in the bloodline.
From clumsy, to mastery, then to proficiency, finally starting to attempt specialized techniques, Flora took less than half an hour in total.
By the end, she was already trying to self-research specialized techniques.
Scary, right?
Yes, it’s very scary!
Although Herbert narrowly won in the end, the outcome of future battles... remains unknown.
"Speaking of which, if I hadn’t blessed her, if she still had her previous strength, maybe the pressure would be lighter."
Herbert raised an eyebrow, self-mocking: "Isn’t this like shooting myself in the foot?"
"Hmm... oh, I remembered."
Instead of internal conflict, he directly chose to shift the blame, muttering in his heart.
"It’s all Nenasha’s fault!"
Yes, blame this Harmonious God!
You blessed too much!
...
["Hmm?"]
And just as Herbert tried to pass the buck, in a hidden corner of his soul, the accused Nenasha blinked.
["..."]
He tilted his head, looked down at his own palm, and blinked uncertainly.
Eh?
Really?
["Has my power recovered this much already?"]
In a certain sense, Herbert was right; the "blessing" just now did have something to do with Nenasha.
Indeed, He took a risk to provide some support to Herbert so that he wouldn’t embarrass himself in front of Flora.
What kind of "Divine" cannot bestow blessings?
No way!
I won’t allow such a thing to happen!
Holding onto this thought, Nenasha acted directly without Herbert’s consent.
But the problem was—the amount wasn’t right.
Yet, what Nenasha granted wasn’t much, far from the enhancement Flora received.
The blessing not only wasn’t swallowed by some entities, but surprisingly increased!
No, this doesn’t follow the rules!
Huh?
Is there some undead causing trouble?
That’s not right!
Which undead would dare create trouble in front of me...
["Well, never mind. It’s probably a reward from the world’s will!"]
Nenasha wasn’t one to dwell on trivial matters, and since this wasn’t a bad thing for Flora, He just casually threw this matter to the back of His mind.
["Decided, if Herbert asks later, I’ll just say it’s all thanks to me! Anyway, he doesn’t understand it~"]
However, despite feeling relaxed, He couldn’t help but want to comment:
["Speaking of which, this world’s reward mechanism is really strange, not caring about anything else but encouraging the birth of an Enchanting Demon Paladin..."]
It’s really odd!
...
...
"It’s really odd!"
Herbert looked at the two Monster Girls in the room, raised his eyebrows in confusion, and couldn’t help but laugh: "I say, you two, what’s with these looks?"
No wonder Herbert’s expression was hard to maintain; the scene was simply too amusing.
At this moment, one of them in the room was sitting with her knees hugged, while the other had curled her body into a ball.
Kreti sat frowning in exasperation, while Valentina, unsurprisingly, had fallen into a deep sleep.
Snoring away!
World-renowned painting — Valentina Sleeping.
It was no big deal that Miss Hungry Dragon was sleeping; Herbert was quite used to it.
But the problem was Valentina’s position — she had curled into a ball, leaving Kreti squeezed into the corner of the room.
Yes, in a room at least several hundred square meters, the two of them used less than a square meter of it.
So space-saving.
Herbert couldn’t resist teasing: "I say, you all don’t need to be so cramped, just sit freely, no need to huddle in the corner."
"Hmph."
Kreti rolled her eyes at Herbert’s teasing, muttering quietly: "Don’t look at me, I didn’t do anything!"
"It was Valentina who, after eating her fill, yawned and suddenly fell asleep!"
Miss Devil was also speechless.
Family, who would understand!
This guy insisted on sticking beside me, not curious herself, but had to press on me so I couldn’t go peep—uh, go investigate!
"Why are you guys so slow, what took you so long?"
"You, huh? What’s that smell? It’s oddly nice... hmm?"
Kreti complained, suddenly freezing, her eyes gradually widening.
What, a smell?
!!!
"Wait!"
Although unsure what it was, Kreti instinctively wanted to flee.
However, she was pinned down by the deeply sleeping Valentina, unable to move at all.
Sealed.
A tragic corner scene come to life!
In the end, Kreti could only watch in terror as the unusually fragrant-scented Herbert walked towards her with a mischievous grin.
"Don’t come any closer!"
!!!
"Stop—"
"Stop right now!!!"
