Chapter 1108: Chapter 759 Abnormal Palpitations_2 Chapter 1108: Chapter 759 Abnormal Palpitations_2 Feiore was indeed petrified.
In mythological tales, there was talk of deities creating humans from clay, but that was said to involve deities. If a magician could accomplish such a thing, it certainly wasn't a magician Feiore could contend with. Moreover, she worried she had already drawn the attention of this being, prompting her to seek help immediately.
“Transformed into clay?”
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai furrowed his brows.
“Did you bring it?”
“Ah, yes…”
Feiore raised her hands and passed over a bag. Duanmu Huai reached out, took the bag, and opened it. Inside, he indeed found something resembling clay.
“………Hmm?”
Duanmu reached in, pulled out the clay, and slightly furrowed his forehead. The moment he touched the clay, he sensed a hint of divinity within it, though very faint–imperceptible to most people. However, as a deity, Duanmu Huai, of course, wasn't surprised by such an aura.
But, do deities still exist in this era?
This wasn't Faelun, where deities had long become mere legends.
Hmm… this is rather interesting.
Duanmu Huai thought for a moment, then looked at Feiore.
“I will handle this matter.”
That's what Duanmu Huai said, and that's what he did.
“Indeed, that clay possesses a rather peculiar divine aura.”
Resting against Duanmu Huai's chest, Medea looked up curiously, her pale face tinged with a blush, her usually ponytailed violet hair now spread out over both of their bodies.
“Are you very interested in this?”
Duanmu Huai reached out, gently stroked Medea's head, and touched her pointed ears, while she comfortably squinted her eyes like a cat.
“Of course, MASTER. The mysteries of this age are exhausted, but the whimsical ideas of magicians are very interesting. Seeing the tradition of magic radiate vibrancy in an age where mystery has declined is indeed fascinating to me.”
“I'm also very interested in this.”
Just then, Duanmu Huai felt a warm and soft sensation rising up his arm. He turned to see Alice Phil propping herself up, looking curiously at him.
“Then let's go together; we're free anyway.”
As he spoke, Duanmu Huai sat up. At this moment, the morning sun had already shone through the window.
“Alright, let's get ready.”
“Yes, MASTER.”
When Duanmu Huai, dressed and accompanied by Medea and Alice Phil, arrived at the dining room, they saw two people who had been waiting there.
“Ah, brother, good morning.”
Sakura, seeing Duanmu Huai, quickly greeted him while Lorena also waved her hand.
“Good morning, Sir Knight.”
“Morning.”
Duanmu Huai nodded at them; it was no surprise seeing them here as Lorena always took Sakura with her for morning training.
“Good morning, big brother, seeing you holding flowers in both hands always makes one envious. Did you have another pleasant night last night?”
At the same time, Reines chuckled and walked into the dining room, speaking to Duanmu Huai and Medea and Alice Phil, who stood behind him.
“Children shouldn't talk about such things early in the morning–you're still young.”
Duanmu Huai glared at Reines, who was unfazed. As Reines mentioned, over the past year, the relationship between Duanmu Huai and Medea, as well as Alice Phil, had grown beyond ordinary, which was quite normal. As Alice Phil said, they were Servants and connected with their Master, so their relationship was much like a married couple's.
Given that, it was only natural for them to do things that married couples do, right?
Even Duanmu Huai had to admit that their Charm was indeed hard to resist. The innocent and cute Medea brought a youthful sass and joy, and Alice Phil's curvaceous figure was truly mesmerizing. From any angle, both were beauties beyond compare.
More importantly, both were Servants, Heroic Spirits, Familiars–at least… well, one didn't have to worry about accidentally causing a death, right?
In various aspects.
“You really are like an old antique in this regard, big brother.”
Hearing Duanmu Huai speak, Reines pouted and then sat next to Sakura. Following that, Duanmu Huai, Medea, and Alice Phil also sat down, a maid then brought breakfast, and Duanmu Huai spoke of his plans while eating.
“Today, Medea, Alice Phil, and I will go to Furvidge territory and pause classes for a week. Reines, please inform the others.”
“To Furvidge territory?”
“Flore said there seems to be a curious problem with the Spirit Vein there, and we plan to check it out.”
“Ah, I see…”
Realizing the context from Duanmu Huai's explanation, Reines seemed to understand and nodded.
“So that's it, indeed, although Flore's health isn't very good, her frail and pure appearance readily piques a man's interest, and with the Furvidge family being a vassal of El-Melloi, it makes sense for you, big brother, to take their clan leader as a mistress… Ouch!”
However, before Reines could finish, Duanmu Huai smacked her on the head.
“Avoid talking such nonsense, what if you corrupt Sakura?”
“It's just part of a Magician's journey…”
Reines grumbled, holding her head in her hands.
Still, what Reines said wasn't wrong. After joining the Clock Tower, Duanmu Huai had learned many internal secrets of the Magician circle, some of which opened his eyes. For instance, there's no rule that a Magician must marry a wife. Like that muscular brute at the Crown Position debate, more boxer than magician, the leader of the Democratic Faction, Magdanil Tranbellio Elrod Monarch, was rumored to have over a dozen mistresses and dozens of children–such were common occurrences in the Magician world.
After all, for many weaker Magician families, if they could incorporate a potent Magician's bloodline, they might someday produce a descendant with powerful capabilities, which would naturally be a massive gain for them.
As a side note, one of the main reasons Duanmu Huai was popular in the Clock Tower was this very fact. Although his appearance wasn't that of a pretty boy that attracted women, his great Strength, and even the rumors that his bloodline was the reason CASTER Medea was summoned, led many who hoped to incorporate Duanmu Huai into their family gene pool.
Yet, they did not make their move.
It wasn't because they feared Duanmu Huai but, well…
Maybe it was Medea's legend that was too frightening.
Thinking this, Duanmu Huai looked over at Medea, who was having breakfast beside him. He had read Medea's legendary tale, but in Duanmu Huai's view, wasn't that idiot Cupid the real culprit? If it weren't for the Curse Cupid placed on Medea, would she have loyally followed Jason? At least now, in the days he spent with Medea, Duanmu Huai didn't think she was the sort of possessive person mentioned in the legends, and she got along quite well with Alice Phil.
What was it called… pole something sisters?
Ah well, whatever it was.
Duanmu Huai shook off his thoughts and looked back at his breakfast in front of him, although he was reluctant to mention it, but… his biggest dissatisfaction was this.
“Do we really have to eat fish and chips every morning?”
