After the school festival, Daiyi would leave.

After the school festival, the contract with Adeline would end.

After the school festival, Olivia would most likely be like a normal person.

After the school festival.

Felyn suddenly felt that his life was about to undergo a dramatic change at this point in time.

It wasn’t that he disliked change, it was just that he wasn’t ready for it.

Felyn wasn’t an absolutely heartless person; he also disliked partings.

Especially with… clients he got along with quite well.

Dislike it or not, he couldn’t stop anything, especially when the other party was a high-ranking and powerful young lady.

Just be himself.

—

Dungeon, sixth floor, Silver Badge area.

Unlike the endless grasslands and bright environment of the fourth floor, the sixth floor was more like an elven forest perpetually soaked in a deep blue night.

The forest was filled with glowing mushrooms, and luminous dust floated in the air. They drifted without a pattern, sometimes gathering and sometimes dispersing, like the breath of the entire forest.

It was precisely this environment that allowed for the existence of Crystalwing Moths.

When they were in danger, they would release their scales, which were also the raw material for Starfire Crystal Dust.

Before being rendered harmless, the scales had a hallucinogenic effect. If one accidentally inhaled them, their body would temporarily lose control.

“Strange.”

Felyn leaned against a tree trunk and looked around.

It had been two hours since they arrived in the dungeon. The long walk had already caused fine beads of sweat to appear on the forehead of the beautiful girl beside Felyn.

She took out a handkerchief to wipe it, then looked at her makeup in a mirror to make sure it hadn’t been messed up by the sweat.

“We’ve run into this kind of situation. I don’t know if it’s unlucky or lucky.”

The boots under her feet stepped on thick moss, and each step splashed a few fine points of phosphorescence.

“It’s definitely lucky. It means our luck is good, and we haven’t encountered any danger,” the girl behind him said.

Felyn walked very fast. She kept her head down and carefully watched the path under her feet, making sure to keep up with his pace.

“I was worried before that I would encounter danger if I teamed up with you. For example, your reputation has spread to the dungeon, and all the magical beasts would be like your fans, swarming up after seeing you.”

Zervanie adjusted the slightly tilted black and blue witch hat with one hand. The shadow cast by the brim just covered her half-closed blue eyes.

The long, silvery-white hair under the brim swayed gently as she tilted her head.

She was wearing a deep blue high-collared robe, with a dark silver belt cinching her slender waist.

The songstress had now transformed into a battle maiden, accompanying Felyn.

“Am I really that amazing in your heart?” Zervanie puffed out her chest, a hint of pride at the corner of her mouth.

The one teaming up with Felyn was none other than Miss Zervanie.

Adeline and Viloti both had family matters to attend to over the weekend, so the task of collecting materials with Felyn fell to Zervanie.

This time, Adeline and Viloti were not following behind Felyn. There were only the two of them for several kilometers around.

Not even a magical beast.

That’s right, Felyn had encountered the exact same problem as last time: he had walked for two hours without encountering a single magical beast.

Magical beast, you’re not in the dungeon at all, where are you hiding?!

Felyn passed through an arched tree root with glowing vines hanging down, and a small circular clearing appeared in front of him.

With their arrival, the faintly glowing grass and the luminous dust in the air tilted together.

“The magical beasts might be on their lunch break. Let’s have lunch here and take a rest.”

Felyn felt it was a bit strange. He couldn’t figure out why there were no magical beasts on the sixth floor today either.

This situation hadn’t occurred yesterday.

How strange.

Zervanie took out a picnic blanket from her bag and spread it in the center of the clearing.

She knelt on the blanket and smoothed out every corner. Her long, silvery-white hair brushed against the picnic blanket, making a pleasant rustling sound.

Zervanie felt that this sixth floor was simply too suitable for a date. In such an environment, it was hard not to improve her relationship with Felyn.

Not to mention, she had also prepared a secret weapon.

“Felyn, I-I accidentally made a little too much lunch yesterday. Do you want to try some?” Zervanie’s thighs rubbed against each other nervously.

Just a taste, he probably wouldn’t refuse, right?

“No,” Felyn refused very bluntly!

“Ah? So decisive? Just try a little, see how my cooking is,” Zervanie said, holding the lunchbox with a white bear sticker in front of Felyn.

“The cooking is great, but I’m not used to it.”

Felyn pushed away Zervanie’s lunchbox and even stepped back.

A long time ago, probably half a year ago.

Zervanie, who was still under contract, suddenly had a whim to cook for Felyn, and ended up giving him food poisoning.

If it weren’t for Zervanie’s panicked expression at the time, he would have really thought she was trying to harm him.

Felyn had once observed Zervanie’s cooking process.

It was just like a five-year-old girl playing a kitchen game, completely without any logic.

This girl was, in a sense, even worse at cooking than Viloti.

Viloti just couldn’t make it, while Zervanie would make the dish in a strange way.

“I-I stayed up all night making it. Since you’re not going to eat it…”

Zervanie buried her head, sitting on the blanket in a W-sitting position, her hands tightly clutching the lunchbox, and slowly turned away.

“I know I’m not good at it… so I practiced for a long time…”

Seeing Zervanie’s pitiful appearance, Felyn couldn’t help but sigh.

Just one small bite, it should be fine, right?

“Since you can’t finish it, I’ll have a little.”

“Really?!”

Zervanie pumped her fist and opened the lunchbox.

Inside were evenly sliced steaks, and the rich sauce poured over them gave off a fragrant aroma.

There were even black pepper and rosemary on the steak, looking like a lot of effort had been put into it.

It’s just…

“How is it? Hmph, I’m also very good at cooking now.”

It was clear that Zervanie really wanted to change her bad impression in Felyn’s mind of being completely unable to cook.

It was just that her somewhat careless habit hadn’t changed.

Felyn took the small fork Zervanie handed him and scraped off the sauce on the steak.

A circular pattern appeared on the surface of the steak. This was the signature pattern of a barbecue restaurant on Homhote Street. They would print this mark on their takeout food.

“Remember to cut this part off next time.”

“Ah?” Zervanie leaned over.

Felyn saw her body freeze on the spot, her cheeks flushed red.

“Boohoo, Felyn, Felyn…” Zervanie pouted, her eyebrows furrowed, her eyes about to squeeze out water.

She called Felyn’s name, trying to ease the embarrassment.

“I just, just wanted to make a good dish. I’ve been practicing for the past few days…” Her hand gently rested on Felyn’s arm, swaying back and forth.

“I’ve been communicating with Miss Viloti all this time, but the results are still not very good…”

Felyn seemed to have found the reason. He couldn’t imagine what good things these two young ladies could make together.

“This is what I made myself…”

Then Zervanie took out another box from her bag and placed it on the picnic blanket.

Felyn opened the box. Although it wasn’t as exquisite as the previous one, it didn’t look like harmful substances either.

But this was definitely made by Zervanie.

“What made you decide to cook?”

Zervanie now gripped Felyn’s arm tightly and said in a low voice, “I-I also want to be a good wife. If I can’t cook, I can’t be a good wife, so…”

Starting two days ago, Zervanie had been busy in the kitchen whenever she had free time.

Last night, after finally managing to make something that could be called food, she began to struggle.

She was worried that Felyn wouldn’t like what she made. She was worried that Felyn would think she didn’t have the potential to be a good wife.

This anxiety reached its peak when she woke up this morning.

On the way to the dungeon, she had temporarily bought a steak lunch from Homholt, hoping Felyn would like it.

Felyn looked at the lunchbox Zervanie had made herself, his mouth opened a few times, and he found that he really couldn’t say “Your cooking is so delicious, you’ll definitely be a good wife in the future.”

“A good wife doesn’t necessarily have to know how to cook, right? And someone who knows how to cook isn’t necessarily a good wife. If she makes you a full meal and then goes on a date with the guy next door, is that still a good wife?”

“The most important thing is the intention to consider the other person. Even if you can’t cook, if you consider him in other areas and help him where you can, that’s the essence of a good wife.”

He finally managed to smooth it over.

Felyn looked down at the lunchbox in his hand and felt that at least Zervanie’s cooking wasn’t too bad this time.

“I’ll try it.”

Under Zervanie’s expectant gaze, Felyn forked a piece and put it in his mouth.

“How is it?”

“Mhm, not bad. Much better than the last time I ate…”

From chewing to swallowing to Felyn speaking.

Less than ten seconds.

Before he could finish his sentence, Felyn was lying on the ground, clutching his stomach.

“Felyn?! Are you okay!”

Zervanie quickly knelt beside Felyn and turned him over.

“Are you not feeling well?! Right, right, I have to do artificial respiration quickly!”
