"What's so strange?" Andonara asked, her eyes blinking and looking quite cute.
Roland hummed and said, "It seems to have become more gentle and gentle."
"Really?" Andonara raised her eyebrows and smiled crookedly: "Do you like this feeling now?"
Roland nodded.
A fool doesn't nod his head. It seems that his wife wants to change her temperament and image, so of course she needs to support her.
He didn't pay too much attention to this matter, and then went to deal with the affairs of Kasulevin and his daughter, as well as Bigby.
First, he took out the magic materials in the space ring, exchanged them for gold coins at market prices, and then bought Kasulefen a small manor in the city, which was less than 500 meters away from Roland's manor.
Then put the remaining gold coins in the cellar of this new manor.
In the cellar that smelled of moldy earth, small treasure boxes were lined up side by side, each containing about fifty gold coins.
"I have put the remaining money here, and there are 609 gold coins." Roland looked at Kasuleven next to him and said: "This money, as long as you don't spend it lavishly, is enough for you and your daughter to live a prosperous life. In addition, the manor I have temporarily transferred the guards from the Magic Tower to help with the guarding. After you settle down and become familiar with this place, you can hire someone you trust to guard the manor. At that time, I will withdraw the guards."
Money matters must be explained clearly, and then guarding matters must be explained clearly.
Otherwise, the other party may mistakenly think that he wants to use guards to control her, which will be troublesome.
Maybe the kindness turns into resentment.
Looking at Roland's already attractive face, Kasulifen's heart was filled with gratitude.
A few days ago, she lived with her daughter in a small house with few furniture and lack of food. She was always worried.
However, now, he has his own manor again, and he is even the owner of this manor. Different from before, even when Aldo was alive, she was just a concubine who was promoted from a dancer to a concubine. She was lucky to be the first to conceive a child, so she received some preferential treatment. However, as more descendants were born, her status gradually changed. It's not that important.
Some time ago, Aldo died, and she even fell into despair, thinking that she finally had a chance to escape from the common people, but she did not expect that she and her daughter would fall into the abyss again.
Fortunately... Roland came to save her from the fire and water.
The ups and downs of life were too exciting for her, and Roland, who helped him in times of need, naturally won her favor.
Especially Roland's straightforward and noble attitude... How many nobles can do this if they give hundreds of gold coins back as soon as they are promised
And now he has shown that he has no intention of controlling himself.
Such a good man... She looked at Roland with eyes full of autumn water: "Sir Roland, I believe you."
"Also, what are your plans regarding Bigby."
This sentence, like a bucket of water, poured away the tenderness in Kasulevin's heart, and she suddenly became silent.
"I know he is not your son, and he is still an illegitimate son. You may not like him, but I personally suggest that you should treat him like your own son."
"Why?" Kasulevin's face was full of confusion: "Or is this your opinion?"
The word opinion is a bit strong, but it does not mean anger or dissatisfaction.
Instead, she was full of flattery. If it was Roland's opinion, she would implement it.
The closer someone is to the bottom, in most cases, the better they can understand the 'situation' and the easier it is to succumb to power.
Roland shook his head and said: "I just suggest it, because if you truly treat him like your own son, then you will have a very strong backer in the future."
"He is very talented in magic?" Kasulevin asked in surprise: "Obviously he is just the son of a peasant woman."
Roland wanted to say that you were also a dancer... but after thinking about it, he let it go.
The obsession with blood and lineage is rooted in the hearts of most people in this world.
I am a hero, and my son is still a hero.
I am a noble son, and my son will always be a noble son.
Of course... it's normal to have such thoughts.
For example, the blood of the Reed family's warriors is very unreasonable. After so many generations, once it is activated, it is extremely powerful. It even has more growth potential because it is hybridized with humans.
Andonara is now a legend and dares to fight demigods. When she reaches the demigod level, she can definitely kill most gods.
"His magic talent may be a little worse than your daughter Yadsel." Roland explained: "But he has a very good character and is very tenacious. He even dared to think in his heart when he thought I was going to take him away. He has the intention to kill me. This is a very good quality. At the same time, he also values his relatives very much. He dares to kill for his mother and attaches great importance to family ties. Even if you don’t say that you want to replace his biological mother, as long as you treat him better, he will definitely do it in the future. I will repay you for the rest of my life."
Kasulevin nodded repeatedly to show that he understood.
In her opinion, mages are all smart people, and what smart people say should not be wrong.
After finishing speaking, the two came out of the cellar and saw two children playing on the lawn of the manor.
Bigby grabbed a blue bug and clumsily tried to please his half-sister, but he frightened her into tears and was comforting her in a panic.
Roland walked over, and Yadsel, who was wiping away tears, immediately stopped crying and hid behind Bigby.
She is obviously an older sister, but she wants to be protected by her younger brother like a younger sister.
Bigby looked at Roland and smiled.
He knew that the man in front of him was indeed a good person, and he was indeed good to him.
"From tomorrow on, you two will go to my magic tower to receive basic magic training. You have to get up early. Do you understand?"
The two children nodded vigorously.
Then Roland turned and left.
Bigby hesitated for a while and wanted to follow Roland.
But as soon as he took two steps, he heard someone behind him shout: "Bigby, where do you want to go?"
Bigby turned around and looked at Kasulevin with some confusion.
The young woman came over, held his hand, and then held her daughter's hand, leading the two of them into the house. At the same time, she said: "From now on, this will also be your home. I am your eldest mother. It is my duty to take care of you. Of course, as a boy, you will also have the duty to take care of Yadsel in the future. Although she is a sister, she is still a girl after all."
Yadsel puffed up her face: "I am a sister, I don't want my brother to protect me."
Bigby was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily, with a faint smile on his face.
His eldest mother's hand was very warm, only a little bit warmer than his mother's. He liked it very much.
After Roland returned to his manor, he sat in the manor and watched Andonara busy making cakes. He always felt that something was wrong.
Recently, Andonara seemed to have made him feel like a different person.
Overall, her personality remains the same, but some small actions have changed.
It’s hard to say exactly, it’s just a little habit that only a very loving old couple can feel.
Or the atmosphere.
Andonara quickly baked the cake and brought it to the table.
Roland took a bite. It was sweet but not greasy, and tasted as good as ever.
Then he looked Andonara up and down and frowned slightly.
"What's wrong?" Andonara asked him with a cute smile, tilting her head.
Hmm... Although it's cute, it's still weird.
Normally, Andonara has always been sexy, so why is she taking the cute route now
While eating the cake, Roland asked: "By the way, did you get that magical goddess statue in the backyard?"
"Yes, I have started to believe in the goddess of magic now, and I plan to be her priest part-time."
Roland blinked in surprise. For a purely physical profession that cannot cast spells, believing in a god and gaining the authority to use divine spells is a good way to increase strength.
Although compared with priests with truly high 'perception' attributes, the power of their divine spells will definitely be slightly inferior, but it is still better than not being able to cast spells.
"It would be great if you could get the permission to use the 'teleport' spell after becoming a believer of the Goddess of Magic."
Think about it, Andonara is already capable of close combat, and then she learns teleportation or teleportation, tsk tsk.
Then the reason for her change in personality was found.
Maybe it's a side effect of believing in a god
After hearing that the priest believed in gods, his personality changed a little because he agreed with the gods' ideas and could even sense the gods' spirit
That makes sense.
Roland nodded. With the answer, he didn't think much more about it.
He was never afraid of Andonara's soul being replaced.
Because it's very simple, he is a mage and is extremely sensitive to mental fluctuations.
Everyone's mental fluctuations are different and change every day, which is caused by emotions.
But the inner spiritual core will not change.
The core of Andonara's soul remains the same as before, without any problems at all.
After eating the cake, Roland went to take a shower, and then returned to the room to see Andonara in translucent pajamas, lying on the bed with a hunched red face.
Well... Roland took out a dragon meat reagent from the system backpack without hesitation, drank it in one gulp, and then waved his right hand and threw the bottle aside grandly. Like a soldier who sacrificed his life generously, he said righteously: "Let's fight. Bar."
Both of them had rested for a few days, and it was time for combat training.
But Roland knew very well that he couldn't defeat Andonara.
There may still be a fight ahead, but in the middle and later stages, I am just meat on the felt board, letting her slaughter me.
Seeing Roland's sullen behavior, Andonara's face turned even redder.
Then Roland walked to the edge of the bed with hands and feet.
Roland thought this would be a long and hard battle, but he was wrong.
This is a devastating battle.
The winner is yourself.
It's incredible.
He stared blankly as Andonara kept rolling her eyes, her whole body trembling, and then her eyes turned pink strangely.
this!
Roland was startled.
He even felt a familiar divinity leaving Andonara's body at an extremely fast speed.
Then it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Then Andonara's eyes turned back to pale gold.
This, this, this!
What's going on
Roland opened his mouth in surprise. He had a weird, bad premonition.
At this time, Andonara, who had been rolling her eyes, suddenly came back to her senses. She stared at Roland for a while, then turned over with a swish and threw Roland to the ground.
Looking at Andonara, who was still unfinished, Roland understood that this was the woman he was familiar with in the past.
What just happened was... God is a ghost
In fact, he also had the answer in his mind.
Around early the next morning, the two finally finished their discussion.
Roland hugged Andonara and couldn't help but ask: "How could you agree to such an outrageous thing?"
"You know?" Andonara asked sheepishly.
"I am also a mage after all. When her divine consciousness is separated, I can still feel it."
Andonara drew circles on Roland's chest with her fingers and asked curiously, "How does she feel?"
"Isn't that you?" Roland asked with a strange look on his face: "It's your body, it's just you I feel."
"Really?" Andonara smiled half-heartedly.
But she didn't ask any more questions.
In fact, although it is the same body, the feeling is completely different.
How to put it... Andonara is a top-quality mango that is ripe, sweet but not greasy, and makes people want to eat it all the time.
The pink-eyed version of Andonara looks like a freshly ripe strawberry, sour and sweet, and quite delicious.
Moreover, Roland thinks that the strawberry flavor can be developed a bit, such as adding some seasonings.
Seeing Andonara's half-smiling expression, Roland felt that he wanted to take the initiative, so he asked: "You haven't answered me yet, why did you agree to such an outrageous thing."
"It's not outrageous, I just let her borrow her body for a while." Andonara said hehely: "Your souls have been fused, and you still need this little contact?"
"That's different!" Roland explained: "That's just asking her to help me improve my soul quality, it's business."
Andonara touched Roland's face and whispered: "I know that you are the son of gold, so you have many concepts that are different from ours. The most sincere and deepest love here between us is the fusion of souls."
Roland was stunned: "Wait, is this a recognized thing?"
"Of course." Andonara smiled and said, "Haven't you read a lot of books? When the legendary characters in the books fell in love, didn't they always say... that they would like to merge with your soul, regardless of you and me?"
"Isn't this a way to express love?" Roland was startled.
People on earth often say the same thing, my heart and your heart will never be separated.
Isn't it just a rhetorical device
Is the fusion of souls in this world a 'phenomenon' of love
Roland felt that something was wrong, and he was once again tricked by 'subconscious ideas'.
In other words, had he courted the goddess of magic before
So why would she agree to such an outrageous request
Could it be that...she really loves herself deeply
Roland felt like he was almost confused.
Looking at Roland's dumbfounded expression, Andonara said calmly: "Don't worry, I will find a way to blend with your soul soon. This is the condition of her promise to me."
But in the Kingdom of Magic God, a ball of divine consciousness flew back from the main plane and submerged into the body of the goddess.
Mythra groaned softly and sat on the throne. Her waist kept twisting and turning, and it took a while to stop.
"This is so exciting."
Her face was as red as transparent agate.
