Mage Manual

Chapter 1727: Chapter 1278: Sentimental

As the light on Weiser’s body gradually dimmed, Sonia and Diya remained in a state of daze for a long time. When Ash returned with four cups of sweet milk, they took them but only held them foolishly, blushing as they looked at him.

Perhaps because their Bonds Level had advanced further, Ash seemed to understand their intentions just through eye contact. So he drank his sweet milk in one gulp, then took Sword Maiden’s cup, held the sweet milk in his mouth, leaned over, and kissed the Sword Maiden to feed her.

When the Sword Maiden’s eyes became misty and her body limp, Ash repeated the gesture with the blushing Witch, and thus the three of them fell into a state of weakness and emptiness, only able to lie on the bed, gasping softly, while the scent of Demigod in the air grew stronger.

"What’s wrong with you guys?" Ash found it amusing and reached out to brush aside Sonia’s hair, "Weren’t you just watching from the side? Or did you awaken the Meiwa lineage?"

"You still have the nerve to talk about us." Sonia wanted to reprimand him harshly, but her voice softened as if she were acting coyly, "You two are the ones who are Meiwa!"

"I’m starting to strongly suspect you two tricked us!" Diya wiped the milk from the corner of her mouth and shouted, "Have you done the Puff many times before? How can you be so skilled!"

It’s not surprising the Sword Maiden Witch would react this way; what happened in the past hour was too overwhelming for the two girls experiencing it for the first time. First, let me mention, because it was the first time for both, Ash and Sonia were very gentle, focusing more on a deeper connection than on physical touch, like a lone boat floating on a calm sea, accompanied by a gentle breeze and a solitary moon.

When it came to Ash and Diya, though Ash had a bit more experience, Diya was an extremely untalented opponent. If dealing with Sonia was ordinary difficulty, then dealing with Diya was ridiculously easy. However, Diya’s recovery rate was fast; once fully revived, she couldn’t help but boast arrogantly, and after collapsing again, she begged for mercy with a whimper, making the whole experience quite entertaining, like being in an Amusement Park with Sonia watching, even wanting to laugh.

But everything changed during Weiser’s turn.

Initially, Weiser was a bit inexperienced, but she quickly got into the Status, actively seeking change and victory, attempting to conquer the Mage with Divine Being power. To maintain the Mage’s honor, Ash naturally refused to submit, and the two were evenly matched, their Experience Points rising rapidly during the high-frequency clashes. Like Sword Maiden and Witch, they only unlocked the first stage for Ash and were still exploring, but Weiser almost broke through, uncovering techniques they couldn’t even imagine.

More importantly, whether it was Sword Maiden or Witch, there were still traces of girlish shyness, unable to let go completely. Only Weiser was fully immersed in the joy of exploration, indulging in sensual pleasures with Free Will, achieving the best live broadcast effect, making the Sword Maiden Witch watching at close range feel like they were experiencing it firsthand.

Ash felt a bit shy from their words; he didn’t feel it at first, but reflecting on it, it did seem a bit crazy, as if trying to burn each other completely.

Silver Lamp had been silent, and Ash wanted to turn and cuddle with her, but looking down, he was suddenly stunned. He held Weiser’s pretty face and gently wiped away her tears with his thumb, asking softly, "What’s wrong?"

"I also want to do Puff until I cry..." Diya bit her nails, feeling envious, but upon being glared at by Sonia, she immediately fell silent.

"Nothing." Weiser awoke as if from a dream, wiped her tears, and smiled, "It’s because you’re too amazing, Ash, even the Divine Being submits to you."

"So what’s really wrong?" Ash embraced her, his eyes clear, "Is it something you can’t tell me?"

"Hmm..." Weiser made a muffled humming sound, waited for a while, then said softly, "I just feel like our happiness might be limited; these times are so happy, but once they’re over, they disappear."

Ash’s heart trembled; though his face showed no emotion, he was already in turmoil, nervously watching Weiser. But Weiser didn’t look at him, instead nestled in his arms, whispering softly, "Ash, you must promise me one thing."

"What is it?"

"Promise me first."

Ash opened his mouth helplessly, saying, "...I promise you."

"If we lose in the final battle, whether to appease or beg for mercy, you must do anything to survive." Weiser whispered, "If we sacrifice ourselves, you mustn’t accompany us in death... if you give up, then we’ve truly lost. Only you living gives us hope to start again."

It turns out she’s just worried about the Dazzling Star... Ash breathed a sigh of relief, rubbing Weiser’s silver hair, saying, "Though Dazzling Star is an unparalleled rival, we... you all are destined to be the greatest Mages of all time, so it’s natural to value Dazzling Star but you must also value yourselves. Even if you don’t believe in yourselves, you must trust my choice of you; with you all here, I dare challenge the Starry Sky."

"But war is war; it involves casualties." Weiser shook her head: "Even if we suffer death or injury, when necessary compromise, when necessary escape without hesitation, when necessary endure and survive... No matter what unexpected event occurs, I believe you can become the greatest Mage ever, so you must survive to the end, alright?"

Sonia and Diya seemed eager to discuss the topic, but Ash raised his hand, signaling them to temporarily remain silent. He looked at Weiser seriously, suddenly leaned in to kiss her, and moments later, Weiser’s body glowed softly with silver light, which pulsated like breathing, leaving Sword Maiden and Witch watching in open-mouthed astonishment.

As their lips parted, Weiser was flushed with embarrassment, almost to the point of bleeding, stammering, "Wh-why did you do that, don’t use this method to evade answering—"

"I’ll answer, but not now." Ash said, "I’ve figured it out—when you guys relax, you enter different states. The Sword Maiden becomes sly, the Witch gets excited, and you become sentimental. If it were the usual Silver Lamp, I’d be happy to talk, but for the sentimental Weiser, my treatment plan has only one way..."

He leaned down and whispered softly in Weiser’s ear, "And that is to leave you no time to be sentimental."

"I’m not as smart as you, so I can’t worry with you. The only thing I can do is make you happy with me. You don’t have to cry in secret; you can cry in my arms."

"You are a treasure I can’t let go of, and I’ll never let you fall into darkness."

Weiser looked at him dumbfounded, crystal-clear tears rolling down one after another. She pushed Ash away, pursed her lips, and said, "Here, you should be saying sweet things to comfort a girl, not thinking about such things... Ash, you really are... And can you stop your hands when you’re talking? I can’t listen to you seriously."

"I think I might be better at the latter right now," Ash said earnestly.

Weiser chuckled, wiped her tears, and let out a soft hum with the corners of her mouth slightly curved upward. Her watery eyes hinted at Ash—the cunning and confident Silver Lamp was back.

She glanced at the clock, tapped the Miracle Bracelet, and raised an eyebrow, "Oh? It’s already 2:10, why hasn’t Vishi come in yet?"

Ash hadn’t even checked the time when the Divine Being’s hands and legs wrapped tightly around him like a muddy swamp, preventing him from escaping: "Since she’s not coming, let’s continue."

"Huh?"

"What? Wasn’t it you who initiated it?" Weiser arched an eyebrow, "Don’t you love me anymore?"

"Of course I do, but—"

"It seems the Sword Maiden and the Witch are eager to try too. You don’t mind having two more opponents, right?" Weiser wrapped her arms around his neck, tilted her head, and said, "It’s just the four of us tonight, let’s keep it an intimate time without outsiders, shall we?"

"Vishi is not an outsider," Ash said softly.

"Huh?" Weiser blinked, "But don’t you still have to use chains to control her? Doesn’t that make her an outsider?"

"I do have to use chains, but—"

"And aren’t you guys just playing around? You don’t want to admit her, she doesn’t want to admit you, it’s like birds and fish having a secret affair from different worlds... With the three of us here for you, would you still think of her?"

Ash lowered his head slightly, "Actually, she already..."

Weiser continued, "Now that our relationship has entered a new stage, I still have the heart to make you forget about Vishi, since your values are contradictory... With our gentle harbor here, you’ll never be drawn to her abyss again—"

"Think."

Sonia and Diya stayed silent, and the silver light on Weiser’s body had already faded. They saw Ash take a deep breath and say seriously, "I know Vishi is an incorrigible villain, and I know I can’t change her nature, but I still think of her."

"It’s not just playing around, it’s not fake... I’ve truly fallen for her."

"In front of your three lovers, having just experienced a moment of bliss, you loudly declare your love for another person. Truly, that’s so like you, Ash," Weiser smiled slightly, and spoke into the Miracle Bracelet, "So are you not coming in yet?"

Ash was taken aback, realizing Weiser’s Miracle Bracelet had been on a call the whole time.

At that moment, a gap opened in the door, and Vishi was pushed into the room by Felix from outside. Felix glanced at the scene in the room, his pupils shrinking and eyes lighting up instantly, but ultimately he could only reluctantly close the door, leaving the night to them.
