I have to hypnotize you, Aura!

The old arrogant one.

The result of being arrogant is that you get thoroughly exposed.

Fingel felt filled with determination. Magic was wonderful, he had to learn it, and he absolutely had to become Celia's apprentice.

"...Why did you do this? You've been together for a while now, okay? And it's impossible to get in through connections. I'm not that kind of person."

Flame pulled her hair back, speechless. They had already done worse things, yet they still wanted to do something so perverted. Was there any point in it?

She was increasingly realizing that it was difficult for humans to understand each other... especially Fingel. She felt that this man's mind was a mess, and he would occasionally come up with some incomprehensible ideas. The only thing she could be sure of was that he was in heat 24 hours a day.

"Also, I'm not Master's favorite student... Celie often says some really hurtful things."

At this moment, the words above Flame's head scrolled.

[Is this guy... in heat again? He wants to sleep with someone he doesn't even know, just because he's heard of them... Seriously.]

[He wouldn't just accept anyone with female characteristics, would he? That seems a bit disgusting.]

[Flame has doubts about you....]

[Keywords for increasing favorability...]

[Implantation failed...]

[Affection Level: 199 (Cannot be increased at the moment)]

.......

Oh... this is slander, isn't it?

Hey kid, talk to me!

Fingel's eyelids twitched; he wasn't used to it... Lately, he felt that driving this thing was just asking for trouble, and he could only swallow his anger when he was scolded.

Forget it, I'll get my revenge tonight.

He coughed twice, trying to forget the truth behind the entry, which was still quite useful after all.

"So? What did she say? Could it have anything to do with taking me on as her apprentice or something?"

"Maybe your master will think I have extraordinary talent and be a martial arts... no, a magic genius, and take me on as his apprentice?"

The words above Flame's head immediately started scrolling.

[Fingal always has these unrealistic dreams... Should I comfort him? It's a bit pitiful, someone who can't learn magic...]

Fingel:?

You have chosen to disable the mind-reading entry.

He felt that this thing didn't need to be kept on all the time—unless the other person could see it, otherwise only he would feel awkward.

“No… Celia said that we shouldn’t take on human disciples. Your situation is a bit special, so I can’t be sure.”

"Furthermore, the requirements for teachers to accept apprentices are very high, so..."

Flame sighed. Honestly, Ms. Celie is really not lovable. She says things that are easy to hurt people's feelings.

Halfway through her sentence, she abruptly changed the subject—she suddenly realized that if Fingel did that kind of thing in front of the teacher, he would definitely be punished, right?

That's good. Flame wants this man to know that he can't get aroused by any woman he sees, or he'll die.

"But you can give it a try. I'm also going to see the teacher with Frilian soon... Shall we go together?"

"Okay!"

"...You seem to have some ulterior motive."

"...I don't have any bags, sis."

Chapter Sixty-Six: The Chaotic Brain

In the manor garden, where the morning mist had not yet dissipated, roses climbed the wrought-iron archway, their deep red petals like velvet, and dewdrops rolled like shattered diamonds among the folds of their petals. Florame, lifting her silk skirt, crouched beside a clump of irises.

She genuinely liked the environment here... It seemed that Fingel, in an effort to please her, had the servants collect many beautiful flowers and create a garden.

Pansies swayed like butterflies in the morning light, while the sundial on the castle's spire cast shadows on the lawn embroidered with dandelions.

Flame sighed, her fingertips gently tracing the blue-purple petals with their gold patterns, before turning to look at Fingel.

'Fingal may seem carefree, but he's surprisingly a very good nobleman... He's not arrogant towards commoners and even offers help... The other day he asked me to use magic to promote plant growth in a farmer's vegetable garden...'

She really thought it was great, and it was something Flame had always wanted to do.

'If only this man were a little more normal, less...perverted?'

Forget it.

She thought for a moment and then said:

"I'll ask my master about it... I'll also look into these related matters, but..."

"So, Awula, what are you planning to do? Are you going to leave her here? Wouldn't that be a bit dangerous?"

"I'll leave your control over the demons aside for now—but are you sure that if you weren't around, she wouldn't suddenly decide to kill people one day? After all, she's a demon."

Flame asked, still unwilling to believe in demons.

She had some deductions about Fingel's matter—it must have been that the demons had developed a concept similar to 'companion' in some way, and that this companionship relationship had gradually evolved into a subordinate relationship.

But this doesn't mean the demon race has become better; a demon race will always be a demon race.

Huh....

Flame suddenly wondered if she herself might have been affected by such magic.

For a moment, she looked at Fingel with a slightly strange expression... When did she gradually accept this scumbag?

"Um...that is a problem. If I'm not around, she might actually cause some trouble."

Fingel didn't notice Flame's little scheme because he had temporarily turned off the system's mind-reading feature.

Actually, some time has passed since the last time, and because I went a little too far, Aura has started avoiding me... Is she worried that I'll be subjected to that kind of thing again? No way!

Speaking of which, it's been a few days since I last visited Aura. And what about Frilian... she actually complained to her master? Where did she pick that bad habit? She needs to be properly disciplined.

He thought for a while and decided to take care of things in the town first, and then leave with Aula... He couldn't leave Aula in the town, as that would cause unnecessary trouble.

While Aura brought benefits to himself, he also brought some trouble. Some nobles in the kingdom had heard the news and sent envoys to communicate with the nobles here.

Fortunately, Fingel had brainwashed the long-absent, idiotic second nobleman into becoming an idiot, thus preventing the deception from being exposed.

Seriously... So it's all Aura's fault, isn't it? It's time to punish her!

Fingel made up his mind to go and have a heart-to-heart talk with Aura... and by the way, he'd been feeling a little sexually frustrated lately.

"Hmm... I feel like there's something strange about your expression?"

He happened to catch a glimpse of Flame's expression—it was somewhat eerie, as if she had seen something filthy.

So familiar... Ah, right, I had the same expression after my first time in bed.

Right.

I'm a little excited.

Fingel liked it a little, while Flame gave herself... cough cough, damn it, Qi Xingyu.

"Oh? Really? Hehe, sorry." Flame brushed it off. "In that case, you should go and deal with Aura's matter first... Florian and I have rested long enough, so we'll go ahead."

"You already know my master Celia's address, so you can come over there yourself."

?

So kind?

its not right.

Although he's become a superhuman, his intelligence still reigns supreme, so Fingel decided to see what he was thinking.

.....

[You have chosen to open the Mind Reading entry]

[Flame: This guy... he didn't use that weird magic on me too, did he? No, he definitely did! This guy will do anything to sleep with a woman, he's such a pervert.]

[It seems to be called... Tsukuyomi? I guess I need to confirm with Celie.]

[Where's Frilian? Frilian might have been infected too... No, I have to go find Master to check first. I can't let Frilian get infected by that bastard... I have to...]

'wipe...'

Fingel's eyelids twitched slightly, and his smile became somewhat forced... Honestly, calling me an idiot all the time, am I that kind of person? Okay, I am that kind of person... but is it really okay for you to slander me like this?

That's going too far! They took you and your master in for over a month, didn't they?

"What's wrong? Are you worried about getting lost? It's easy to find." Flame smiled insincerely. "It's easy to find, isn't it? Besides, Celia is very strong. You might be discovered even if you're only nearby."

[Seria should be able to spot the problem... This girl is more powerful than I thought. I can start researching this kind of illusion magic later.]

[It seems my words haven't been detected yet... What a bizarre ability! Can it change a person's thoughts without them even realizing it? Disgusting... disgusting magic. It's hard to believe I would find magic disgusting.]

[No, it's not the magic that's disgusting, it's that Fingel is such a pervert! He could be doing much better things, but he insists on wasting his time on something as pointless as sleeping with women.]

If she lays a hand on Celia... I hope the teacher will teach her a lesson.

...

Ah, beautiful women are such liars.

You want me to fight Celia?

Sailors attacking Imperial Guards? That's going too far.

Fingel frowned slightly, feeling like he'd been scolded but couldn't bring himself to say it... Was mind-reading really just torture?

I really want to get revenge. I should pick her up and beat her up for her big fast, but wouldn't that be unreasonable?

How heartbreaking, Ms. Flamel.

Wait, when did I start talking about reasoning?

Fingel's tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed, and he suddenly realized that he seemed to have become so upright. It was just like fighting; he could just go in whenever he wanted!

I'm a total scumbag!

As long as I maintain this awareness, I am invincible!

Is it all Flame's fault? How could she secretly speak ill of me in her heart?

Damn it, the British police are here!!

war!

Fingel instantly stopped doubting himself. Rather than wasting his own energy, he decided to attack others. This is called the Misery Behavior Principle.

"Ah, very strong, very strong, oh yes."

"Flame".

He suddenly broke into a smile, grabbed Flame's shoulder, and smiled broadly.

Ah, just thinking about how soft it is, it's so nice.

If it were a Framer, even a slap would leave a lingering fragrance, right?

"?What's wrong?"

Flame felt a little uneasy about Fingel's expression, wondering if he was up to something bad again.

"Were you just insulting me, dear Ms. Flamel?"

Fingel's tactical black face.

?

Flame found it absurd. When did I just curse you? Has this man gone crazy again?
