Chat group, if you have anything to say to my Holy Sword,

"This is so troublesome." Kevin looked at the person blocking his way, his face still showing his usual expression, but he was already complaining inwardly.

"Hi~ Kevin!" A pink figure seemed to appear out of thin air. Alicia stood with her hands behind her back, smiling as she watched Kevin. "Wow, that's amazing! You're number one among the new recruits! You even broke someone else's record from back then!"

How should Kevin respond to that? He simply gave an awkward laugh, of course.

"Alice, what's wrong?" Kevin asked, changing the subject.

"Oh~ this~" Alicia seemed to have been waiting for him to say this, and her smile became even brighter.

She calmly pulled a phone from her coat, tapped the screen a few times, and then, with a swift flick of her wrist, shoved the phone screen in Kevin's face! "Here!"

Kevin's initially disdainful gaze suddenly widened when he saw the photo.

Oh my God!

In the video, a man with a smile is squatting down in front of a girl, putting shoes on her. The girl looks at the man with a blush on her face, and it seems as if pink bubbles are floating in the air!

"Isn't it romantic?" Alicia put her phone away, smiling brightly.

"How romantic!" Kevin couldn't help but agree.

“Right, right~?” Alicia immediately leaned closer, clasped her hands together beside her full cheeks, tilted her head, and looked at Kevin with a radiant smile. She asked casually, “So~ where are the Xiling people?”

"Huh?" Seeing the girl pressing closer, Kevin shifted his gaze to the other side, and suddenly an idea struck him!

Ah, he has a great idea!

Kevin's gaze suddenly stopped avoiding his eyes and instead looked intently at Alicia.

"As for Xiling, he will attend the recruit banquet tonight, I assure you."

"Really~?" Alicia raised her beautiful eyebrows slightly, turned to the side, her hands still behind her back, and drew out the last syllable of her voice.

Kevin nodded affirmatively.

"If he doesn't come, then you can come after me."

"Oh dear~" Alicia immediately put on a sad expression. "How come in your mouth, Kevin, do you think I'm some kind of unreasonable, bad girl? That's so hurtful~"

"Hehe," Kevin forced a smile. "How could that be?"

"Alright then~" Alicia's expression instantly brightened, her smile returning. She waved and walked past Kevin with light, almost dancing steps, humming a little tune. "Kevin, I believe in you~ Looking forward to seeing you tonight! Bye-bye~"

Kevin breathed a heavy sigh of relief upon seeing this.

The next second! Kevin suddenly remembered something crucial!

"Wait! Alicia!" he shouted in the direction Alicia had disappeared. "The photo! That photo! Send me a copy!!!"

A few minutes later, Kevin looked at the incredibly clear picture on his phone screen and couldn't help but grin wildly.

Without any hesitation! Kevin's fingers flew across the screen. Recipient: Mei Recipient: Su

Xiling not only knows Mei, but also Su. After all, it used to be the three of them who went to a concert. Xiling almost got caught climbing over the wall.

Su replied almost instantly.

That was a huge shocked emoji.

Mei replied a few minutes later.

Why did he dye his hair?

-

In a certain laboratory, Möbius is still working hard today.

But today was different from usual. The blood seemed to sense something and changed. Unfortunately, Mebius didn't know what the change was. Just then, a message popped up on his phone.

A voice that has garnered special attention.

Mebius picked up his phone with disdain and opened a message someone had sent him.

A photograph and a piece of text caught her eye.

"Professor Möbius, we'll be waiting for you at the recruits' banquet tonight!"

Normally, Mebius would have simply turned off her phone, but at this moment, a happy smile appeared on her face.

"Finally it showed up."

Chapter 115 The Witch's Healing, The Dance of the Hero and the Witch.

The banquet hall was brightly lit, filled with the aroma of food and the energetic conversations of young people. There was no alcohol involved, as some were minors; instead, there were colorful juices and delicate pastries, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of an overly formal yet lively university social gathering.

The topics revolved around embarrassing moments at the training camp, the quirks of a certain instructor, and a vague yet firm vision for the future.

Inside the room, Xiling looked at her outfit in a full-length mirror, making sure everything was alright. She then slightly adjusted her hair.

"My hair seems to have grown a bit, so does that mean I've grown up?"

The bodies of heroes are different from those of humans; perhaps the only way to tell if they have grown is by their noticeable hair.

"It seems to have been a little longer after defeating that ancient god."

Xiling looked at herself in the mirror a couple more times, and feeling that everything was fine, she pushed open the door and went out.

When Xiling arrived at the ballroom, she looked around but didn't see Kevin.

"That guy didn't even wait for me. When I find him, I have to give him a piece of my mind in front of Mei and let him know what happens when you offend a hero."

As for Xiling, she looked at the buffet-like area and a slow smile appeared on her lips.

Of course, eating is the most important thing.

-

In the room, Elena gazed at herself in the mirror, an expression she had never shown before appearing on her face.

Just like that night, the beauty that the girl displayed as she walked toward death under Xiling's gaze.

Elena clutched her heart, preparing herself for what was to come.

"That guy must be feeling really guilty right now. With that kind of personality, how could I have..." The girl didn't finish her sentence, but instead closed her eyes and sighed helplessly and relievedly.

When she opened her eyes again and looked at herself in the mirror, she seemed to be saying to herself, or perhaps to her reflection, "Don't be speechless when the time comes; that would be so embarrassing."

A confident smile returned to her face.

"Of course, I could definitely do it, because I'm a genius."

The hat on her head was gently placed on the bed by Elena.

She was about to leave to attend a banquet.

Offer the awkward hero a [witch's healing].

In his daily life, Xiling doesn't really pay attention to his surroundings, because it would be impolite to those around him. So at this moment, two heads, one white and one purple, were seen staring at him from the wall on the other side.

The purple-haired figure saw Xi Lingling's steps forward and pushed up his glasses with an "I knew it" expression.

“I knew he would head straight for the self-service area as soon as he came out; everything was going according to plan.”

"Isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Kevin's voice sounded a little guilty. If Xiling found out he had schemed against him, she would definitely retaliate.

"The plan has already begun, there's no turning back now, Kevin." From this angle, Mei looked at a pink-haired girl in a maid outfit crouching in a corner not far from Xiling.

Kevin saw this scene too. Yes, once the arrow is released, there's no turning back. Now he can't turn back even if he wants to.

"Brother! My brother, I'm doing this for your happiness! I'm begging you, please don't take revenge on me!" Kevin prayed silently in his heart, but just then he caught sight of another beautiful figure out of the corner of his eye.

She was a mature older woman. After she entered, she immediately searched for a certain figure in the lobby. When she noticed Xiling, she immediately started walking, her target clear: Xiling who was heading towards the self-service area.

"What's going on?" Kevin asked, puzzled.

May, who also noticed this, frowned. The current situation was not what she had expected. Why was Dr. Mebius here?

"Plans can't keep up with changes, Kevin. Looks like you're in for a rough time." After discovering that the plan had changed, May handed Kevin a death sentence.

Kevin gave a forced look.

"It seems so."

The center of the storm.

Xiling finally arrived at the self-service area, happily looking at the table full of delicious food. It wasn't that Xiling couldn't afford to eat there normally, but that it was more cost-effective to eat it for free.

Just as Xiling was about to grab a plate of roast meat.

He noticed two sets of footsteps on his left and right, clearly heading in his direction.

Xiling didn't stop what she was doing; she picked up the grilled meat again before turning her head to look over.

"Hi~" A bright, smiling face, as radiant as a spring garden in full bloom, instantly filled Xiling's left-hand view. Alicia was now incredibly close, her pink hair almost brushing against his arm, her crystal-blue eyes curving into crescents, sparkling with a mischievous yet affectionate light. "Xiling~ Long time no see~ Did you miss me?"

"Not at all, thank you."

Xiling picked up her fork and replied to Alicia as if they were having a normal conversation.

"Huh?" Alicia took another small step closer, trying to awaken the other's sense of goodness with her presence.

"How could this be? We haven't seen each other for so long! I've been thinking about you every single day! How could you be so cold to me!"

“No,” Xiling said innocently and honestly. “I was just stating the facts.” After thinking for a moment, she added, “After all, honesty is a virtue.”

That matter-of-fact attitude made Alicia feel slightly frustrated.

Alicia looked helpless, one hand on her hip, a slender index finger waving in front of Xiling with a hint of exasperation: "Xiling, Xiling~ You can't treat cute girls like that~ You'll never find a girlfriend!"

Xiling skewered a piece of roasted meat with her fork, dipping it slightly in the sauce.

"Then I also think it's wrong to deceive cute girls."

“It has indeed been a long time. Alicia, how have you been lately?” Xiling asked with a smile.

"Hmph..." Alicia snorted softly, her face blooming with a smile again. "Of course I'm doing great! I'm happy every day! It's just that my friend is always so elusive, making me worry about her terribly every day~"

"You're not talking about me, are you?"

Just as Xiling was about to put the roasted meat into his mouth, another set of footsteps came from the other side.

As Xiling ate her barbecue, she turned around and saw a familiar yet unfamiliar face.

"What is Mebius doing here?" The thought flashed through Xiling's mind.

While Xiling was thinking, he saw Mebius come up in front of him, his eyes fixed on him with an almost greedy scrutiny, scanning him from head to neck, shoulders, arms, waist... as if he were not a living person, but a rare living specimen waiting to be studied!

Faced with such a terrifying gaze, Xiling was so frightened that she quickly ate another piece of roasted meat.

Just then, Alicia walked forward happily, as if she had seen a good friend. "Hi~ Dr. Möbius! I didn't expect you to actually come to the recruit banquet~ What a rare guest!"

"Also, staring at a boy you're meeting for the first time so intently can easily scare him away!"

"Is that so?" Mebius replied calmly to Alicia, her gaze never leaving Xiling.

"You came to see me? What's the matter?" Xiling put down the plate he had finished eating and looked at Mebius with a puzzled expression. He didn't seem to have any interaction with the other person.

Just then! Möbius moved!

She took a step forward, her high heels clicking crisply and rapidly on the floor, instantly closing the distance between them! Xiling could even smell the mixture of disinfectant and some other odor on her. Her lips were almost touching Xiling's ear, her warm breath carrying an undeniable certainty: "You're not human, are you?" It wasn't a question, but a resolute statement.

"You started by swearing, isn't that a bit inappropriate?" Xiling moved her head slightly away.

Mebius stepped back. "I was just stating an obvious fact."

"So, why did you come to me? Just to say this?" Xiling looked at her.

“No.” Mebius’s answer was concise and forceful. She moved closer again, and then, under the watchful eyes of Xiling and Alicia, she gently raised her hand and placed it on Xiling’s chest!

Her fingertips, through the thin dress shirt, felt the steady, powerful beating of a heart beneath. A near-morbid expression, a mixture of fervent thirst for knowledge and utter ecstasy, instantly appeared on Möbius's face! Her lips involuntarily curved upwards, her eyes burning with a flame capable of consuming reason, as if she were touching not a living person, but a key to ultimate truth!

"Let's make a deal!" Her voice carried an undeniable urgency and an almost frantic allure!

Mebius's hand, which had been resting on Xiling's chest, along with his other hand, tightly embraced Xiling's neck! Their faces instantly drew close to each other, creating an ambiguous yet purely possessive distance devoid of lust!

“Listen!” Her breath was hot on Xiling’s face, every word filled with desperate fervor. “Anything I have—money, authority, rare materials, even… myself! Whatever you want, I’ll give you it all! Without reservation!” Her voice was like a devil’s whisper, full of deadly temptation.

"But the price is—you! You'll become my personal experimental subject! How about it!"

Mebius's gaze seemed to want to devour Xiling alive! That desire, stemming from the unknown blood sample, had long since turned into a nightmare, gnawing at her reason and soul day and night.
