Having a powerful lord as a father figure, what's wrong with just wanting to draw cards?

"Domi, what did you say to Master Edward? He seemed quite upset."

Calling him by his nickname and using a respectful title when addressing Edward is excellent! It shows that she is much closer to Kelsey than Edward is to her!

Domi shook his head with a hint of pride: "No, I just stated some facts to him."

"If anyone's to blame, it's his poor resilience and damaged Dao heart."

After listening to Domi's testimony, Kelsey pondered for a moment, then, as if firing a bolt of lightning, spoke without warning:

So... is it about me?

Gah...

Domi was stunned for a moment, and this action further confirmed Kelsey's suspicions.

"Hmm~~?"

Kelsey narrowed her eyes with a mixture of curiosity and pressure. Little did she know that when she narrowed her eyes, it looked like she had natural eyeliner, and the beautiful curve made Domi unable to look away.

Domi felt ashamed to say those words and wanted to lie.

But his previous experience with Catherine still haunted him. He was afraid that Kelsey would keep her distance from him because of this, and even more afraid that he would say the wrong thing and cause the tragedy of the man being silent and the woman crying to repeat itself.

Under immense pressure, Domi finally confessed:

"I just can't stand Edward dressing up like a princess in front of you, it makes me a little uncomfortable..."

He couldn't lie, so he decided to express his feelings completely and accurately.

Sincerity is often the most powerful weapon.

Actually, there's one more sentence left unsaid between the two paragraphs: "Seeing the way other people are reflected in your eyes..."

Leaving out a sentence doesn't count as lying, does it?

But Kelsey seemed to have guessed this sentence out of thin air.

I quickened my pace, skipping and hopping, until I reached Domi. I crouched down so that I could make eye contact with the short Domi.

The two looked into each other's eyes, their starry pupils reflecting each other's images.

"Domi, look, what's in my pupils?"

"Next time you feel bad, do this: when you look at me, you will always be the only one in my eyes."

"Ok!"

After saying that, Kelsey stood up, pressing down on her skirt, and followed Domi again.

However, in a place where Domi cannot hear, watching Domi's slowly growing figure, it is as if one can glimpse the future.

She gently raised her lips and uttered something no one could hear—Forget-me-not… Domi.

Chapter 31, Section 30: One-on-One Nighttime Tutoring by the Teacher (Love and Care) (Flow)

The next day, Domi got up early as usual, walked through the still dimly lit corridor, climbed to the top floor of the castle, pulled out his small cushion from the corner, sat down on the floor, and began to practice [Body Tempering Technique - Breathing].

The purest first rays of purple light illuminate the earth long before the sun rises, and he is always in position before then, waiting for the purple light to envelop him with full vitality.

With a power and speed bonus of 0.004, I fully enjoyed the day's benefits.

I got up, stretched, and my bones cracked as my muscles were fully stretched, leaving me feeling refreshed.

The only thing that clashes with this incredibly healthy body is the dark circles under his eyes, which are as noticeable as panda eyes.

This brings us to Carlos's punishments, which were nothing short of torture.

That night, after copying the notes ten times, he and Kelsey went back to sleep. As her personal maid, Kelsey's room was next to Domi's. Of course, Domi never slept in her own room.

Please don't get the wrong idea. He treats Kelsey like a mother, and Kelsey treats Domi like a son, so naturally nothing untoward will happen.

As for why he did this, it's naturally because he felt more at ease and comfortable sleeping in Kelsey's arms.

Yesterday's situation was a bit special.

After downing three energy potions and one night vision potion, Domi was not only as energetic as an ox, but with his eyes closed, everything outside was as clear as daytime, even if only outlines were visible.

Night vision drops work by covering the cornea with a thin film that provides night vision, so closing your eyelids can also help to some extent.

And so, he endured until 3 a.m. before finally feeling sleepy.

However, after a two-hour nap, I had to get up again.

With that kind of schedule, who doesn't have dark circles under their eyes? Kelsey? Unfortunately, she doesn't, so the Joker only has Domi.

"Domi, breakfast time!"

At that moment, the familiar call rang out again, just like always.

"coming!"

A beautiful day must begin with Kelsey calling for dinner!

After breakfast, it's time to head to the classroom in the side hall.

One of the advantages of studying at home is that you don't have to carry a huge, heavy backpack around; all you need to bring is a notebook.

The three brothers walked together, each with a notebook tucked under their elbow... or more accurately, they formed a triangle.

Argyle often isolates herself because she doesn't fit in with her two younger brothers, so she walks ahead by herself, while Domi walks alongside Edward.

Edward also had dark circles under his eyes, but he didn't look listless; his mental state was similar to Domi's after practicing his breathing.

This is obviously wrong.

Yesterday he really gave Edward a severe emotional trauma and earned him 1500 villain points, so why is he acting like nothing happened now?

Domi couldn't help but ask:

"Edward, are you... alright?"

"Huh? What can I do?"

"It was last night..." Domi thought for a moment, realizing she had indeed been a bit too decisive and had damaged his Dao heart. She should apologize to him now.

"I admit I said those things too harshly, so I want to apologize to you."

Unexpectedly, Edward didn't take it to heart at all, and casually waved his hand:

"Hey, don't say that. After all, I was in the wrong first. Now I know, you really like Kal'tsit."

"That's true, such a cute girl, only a little older than us, who wouldn't like her?"

"I was also blinded by greed back then, and I wanted to hit on your girl... That's why I want to apologize to you!"

As he spoke, Edward casually put his arm around Domi's shoulder, and the two became as close as brothers.

After hearing these words, even Domi couldn't help but admire Edward.

Over the years, even though he has been tricked by himself time and time again, he always just laughs it off and never learns from his mistakes.

This is also important because Domi always provides follow-up services after scamming people, just like he turned himself in after the last scam.

Moreover, he recovers from each emotional setback the next day and never gets hung up on one person.

Domi doesn't believe the "carefree" explanation. Edward must have buried all his resentment deep inside; he's definitely a hidden Casanova!

"Edward, I'm starting to look at you in a new light. You might... be quite remarkable."

Edward was completely baffled, looking utterly bewildered.

"Clam?"

You are my hero!

……

This time in class, Domi wasn't as idle as before.

To avoid being punished that night, he not only listened attentively to the lectures but also took incredibly detailed notes, his level of diligence rivaling that of Argyle, which made Connor quite uncomfortable for a while.

Fortunately, only Edward still gave him a familiar recipe and a familiar taste, so he didn't associate it with the idea of ​​a personality transformation that would destroy his humanity.

As soon as get out of class ended, Connor immediately found Domi and asked him about his situation.

He was also very curious about what could have caused such a significant change in the study attitude of this good-natured, lecherous boy in just one day.

"Uh……"

Faced with Connor's inquisitive gaze, Domi had to come up with a reasonable excuse.

He couldn't reveal the fact that he had special training, as that was an agreement between him and Carlos. Nor could he say that he had nothing to do all afternoon, because if he did, Connor would almost certainly confront Carlos directly.

The remaining 10% were forced to stay here for classes.

Therefore, his reasoning must be consistent with his own circumstances and based on specific realities.

Use professional skills to review your past behavior, earnestly implement your persona, and conduct attribution analysis on Connor's purpose.

By simulating the possibilities of various cases, we can identify tipping points and thereby solidify the underlying logic of industry models...

Clearly, Connor needs to understand this student to ensure that the child's precious childhood is not wasted.

Now that we know the other party's deeper purpose and there is no way to break through directly, taking a roundabout approach is also a viable option.

After a moment of contemplation, Domi finally answered:

"Teacher, as you know, my father arranged other activities for me, so I couldn't attend your magic class this afternoon. But I do have a desire to learn magic!"

"But because I was lazy yesterday, my father punished me by making me copy the day's notes ten times, which is why I didn't have the chance to borrow magic books from the library to study on my own."

"Therefore, after much painful reflection, I decided to pay close attention in class and give myself enough time to study on my own!"

Dominic speaks with a lot of logical reasoning, and Connor is used to it. But what he cares more about is that Dominic actually has the idea of ​​learning magic!

He's Dominic! A once-in-a-century "genius" in the Bloomfield family!

It is precisely because of him that this kind of heart is all the more precious.

Connor, having been through it himself, knew how difficult it was to pursue education under difficult circumstances. He immediately empathized, almost bursting into tears, and patted Domi's shoulder, deeply moved, saying:

"Alright! Since your father won't let you take formal magic classes in the afternoon, come to the library after dinner and I'll give you individual instruction!"

"Don't let my slovenly appearance fool you, I'm one of the few archmages in the empire, I can definitely teach you well!"
