Like everyone else, Vichy was still wearing a tight-fitting white lace wedding dress, but her expression now was as if she was wearing torture instruments. She stood in front of the door with her hands folded in anxiety, neither leaving nor coming over, looking down at her toes, like a student who was punished to stand.
"Vichy?" Ash asked tentatively.
Hearing Ash's voice, Vichy's body trembled, and he turned to face the wall, changing from standing in the corner to standing facing the wall.
"Go ahead." Weisser pushed Ash and said with a smile, "All evil must be brought to justice. This evil person will not surrender to the law. Use your justice to crush her evil!"
Ash glanced at Visser unhappily, and then he really walked over. This scene was quite subtle, after all, Ash was naked, while Visser was a bride with six divine equipment. The equipment difference was too obvious, and Diya could hardly look away.
And Sonia was looking at Weisser.
It was not until this moment that she vaguely realized that Weisser was helping Vichy. They all knew that there was always a thick barrier between Ash and Vichy called the three views, and tonight, when their relationship was changing, was the best time to break the barrier. If they missed this opportunity, perhaps they would really have to wait until the end to break the barrier.
If you think about it carefully, Weisser's previous series of teasing actions against Weixi, in addition to being malicious, were actually more to help Weixi integrate into the circle of friends. If Weisser hadn't deliberately teased Weixi and made Weixi unable to help but quarrel with them, the Sword Witch would never have regarded Weixi as a friend, at most as a companion.
Those who fight side by side in life and death are companions, and those who get along well with you in daily life are friends.
But the one who should hate Vichy the most in the team is Weisser, but instead of retaliating, Weisser took the initiative to help her. There is obviously only one reason for this.
Sonia leaned close to Weisser and whispered, "Do you think of yourself as his mother? Do you pamper him so much?"
"Now that you mention it..." Weisser pondered, "It would be interesting if he called me 'Silver Lantern Mother'... After all, gods can't have children, so it's reasonable for him to compensate me with a child... And I also want to call him baby."
"Hello!"
"I know what you mean." Weisser blinked, "But he said I was his treasure! I thought I was the only one who regarded him as a treasure!"
Sonia sighed helplessly: "I am increasingly suspicious whether Ash is a Veela..."
"Besides," Weisser lowered her eyelids and said faintly, "Don't you think this can make Ash happy and also take revenge on Weishi?"
Sonia was startled, and suddenly understood Weisser's deeper meaning.
At this time, Ash brought Vichy back. The elf bride was still very nervous. She didn't speak or look at Ash, and let Ash manipulate her, with an attitude of resignation that she was reluctant but could not resist. Ash lay beside her and looked at her for a while, kissed her forehead, and smiled, "If you're not ready, let's go to bed."
Vichy finally looked at him, and after a moment, he whispered, "I've been ready for a long time... But are you ready?"
"Do you mean the same thing when you say prepare as when I say prepare?"
"Of course, from the first day I was locked up by you, I was ready to flatter you and survive." Weishi snorted, and the nervousness gradually faded, returning to the proud and unruly temperament of the ghost prophet: "Even without a miracle, I have the confidence to control you through close contact, but you just never gave me the chance."
She suddenly rode on Ash, staring at him straight in the face: "Once you relax and show your weakness, I will definitely force you to unlock my chains. When there are no chains to restrain you, I will make you pay for what you have done! No one can enslave the Ghost Prophet, no one!"
"You've made me a little scared."
"Hehe, you're scared, right?" Weishi raised his head: "So it's not me, but you who are not prepared-"
"I'm afraid you'll leave me."
Ash reached out and hugged Vichy into his arms, and asked with his face close to hers, "Are you afraid too?"
"I'm afraid of you?" Wei Xi laughed angrily: "Yash, do you think I'm afraid of you?"
"You're afraid of yourself," Ash said. "You're afraid that you'll no longer be like yourself."
Wei Xi's body froze, and he muttered, "... No."
"Just like you refused my help and insisted on completing the Six-Wing Trial alone. You were afraid that if our relationship progressed further, you would no longer be the carefree ghost prophet, but would become my demon maid." Ash said, "But you don't have so many concerns normally. The only difference is... you are wearing a wedding dress and a wedding ring."
"Compared to the invisible ruby chain." He took Vichy's left hand, "this visible chain scares you more, right?"
Weixi looked at him quietly without saying anything, her eyes gradually became tearful, she pursed her lips and looked aggrieved, as if begging him to stop talking.
But Ash did not let go of this demon who was weak except for his dignity, and continued: "Are you waiting for me to propose the option of trade?"
"If I bullied you, you could continue to avoid the problem, not take responsibility, and continue to deceive yourself... What you fear most is not the chains on your fingers, but your own betrayal of your ideals that you have held for thousands of years and your past sufferings."
Tick, tick, tick.
Sonia and Diya both held their breath, not daring to break the tranquility of the scene. Even Weisser was stunned. She didn't expect that Ash would actually seize the opportunity to attack fiercely... Is this the level suppression brought about by leveling up three times in one night
"Can you please stop bullying me tonight?" Wei Xi lowered his head, his voice trembling slightly, and said aggrievedly: "They are watching..."
Ash licked the tears from her eyes and said softly, "I just want to tell you that you don't have to worry at all, because you... will never be able to turn back into the ghost prophet you used to be."
"Although it's not much, I believe I have changed you a little, just like you have also taught me some bad things. No matter what happens in the future, you will no longer be that crazy ghost prophet. Although you are still cruel and violent, you have seen higher scenery with me. Your pride does not allow you to continue to waste time looking at the creatures under the clouds... More importantly, you have found your own way. Even without me, you will pierce the Seventh Heaven fiercely and find the highest opportunity in the chaos."
"Of course, you will not be my exclusive demon maid. Your dignity does not allow it, nor does your persistence over the past thousand years. Neither a ghost prophet nor a demon maid, you will have a more resounding, more dazzling, and more awe-inspiring title."
"You will definitely become a magician who stands at the top." Ash said seriously: "I have never doubted this."
"But in my eyes, you will always be Maid Vichy. Who made me see a lovely maid waiting for me to wake up the first time I lost my memory of you?"
Wei Xi wiped her eyes and looked at him with a complicated expression. After a long while, she said faintly:
"How did you manage to take off my underwear while saying such nice things?"
Ash hesitated for a moment: "Then... I'll help you put it back on?"
Vichy chuckled and gave him a cold look, her eyes flickering with charm and allure, making Ash slightly dazed.
"Three lifetimes of wandering, a thousand years of cultivation..."
"I've done so many evil things in my life, I deserve to meet you, a bastard. Now I'm really locked in by you." She unbuttoned the back of her wedding dress, and her two soft balls pressed against Ash's chest. Then she leaned over and whispered in Ash's ear: "All my persistence over the years has been ruined by you, bastard."
Ash's scalp was tingling, and his blood was boiling. He took a deep breath and asked, "Do you still want to leave?"
"I want to be your slave for life." Wei Xi bit Ash's ear and said softly, "Lock me up."

This time, Ash finally didn't go to replenish water.
Because Wei Xi hugged him tightly and refused to let him leave. In addition to the reason of being a spoiled child, another reason was...
"Pfft, Vichy, you are too... too cute, aren't you?"
"Now I really believe that Ash is your first love."
"Great, it turns out I'm not the weakest one!"
After holding back for more than half an hour, everyone finally couldn't hold back their laughter and commented on Vichy's performance. Yes, it wasn't even an hour. In more than half an hour, Vichy was completely wiped out and had to stop to recover. In terms of health bar, she was not as good as Sword Lady, in terms of combat recovery, she was not as good as Witch, and in terms of burst, she was not as good as Silver Lantern, so she refused to show her face and kept burying her head in Ash's arms pretending to be dead.
Ash stroked Vichy's curly twin ponytails, also trying to hold back a smile. Because he was used to teasing Vichy, he couldn't help but tease Vichy just now, making the rebellious elf maid say a lot of love words that she wouldn't normally say, which was particularly interesting.
Just then, he heard Vichy ask sullenly, "Are you disappointed in me?"
Ash couldn't hold it back anymore and burst into laughter. Vichy was so angry that her face turned red, but she didn't dare to show it, so she could only hug him tightly.
It took a while for Ash to stop laughing. He wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "I should be disappointed in you for so many reasons. You only focus on this one thing?"
"Since you are so disappointed, don't look for me next time. Let the three of them accompany you."
She is the type who likes to act like a spoiled child after relaxing... Ash hugged Vichy's slender waist and said with a smile: "You said you wanted to be hypocritical and I cooperated with you, you said you wanted to trade and I cooperated with you, you refused to join the team and I cooperated with you, you insisted on completing the six-wing trial alone and I cooperated with you..."
"So you don't have to worry, just follow your own pace, there is no disappointment, I will cooperate with you. Don't worry about the image of you in my mind, I am mentally prepared to accept everything about you, whether it is good or bad, happy or sad, because... I love you."
After a long while, Ash finally heard the person in his arms hum softly, and replied in a very low voice: "I love you, too."
Ash felt as sweet as if he had taken a big bite of ice cream, and his whole body relaxed, feeling that the last bit of regret in his heart had disappeared. He looked at Sword Lady, then turned his head to look at Silver Lantern and the Witch, and finally his courage caught up with his desire, and he mustered up the courage to open his arms and embrace them all.
"Huh?" Sonia raised an eyebrow.
"Wow!" Diya looked expectant.
"It turns out that Lala Fei can also become arrogant." Weisser laughed.
"Your scheduled time is over. It's my turn now, right?" Ash blinked, and his voice seemed to be filled with incredible magnetism: "This night is still long."
... ...
...
As the early morning sunlight penetrated the window screen, it cast a golden outline on the messy room.
Sonia and the others were all sleeping soundly, even Weisser. They were still wearing their wedding gowns, but some were hung and some were not. Fortunately, they were the wedding gowns that were drawn out, otherwise they would have been damaged in the battle last night.
Ash was sitting between them on the bed, wearing pajamas, which was a rare occurrence for him. He was looking at the photo in his hand with a faint smile on his face.
"If you ask me again, you might really regret it."
He glanced at the lovers. Sonia's mouth corners were slightly upturned, and it was unknown what sweet dream she was having; Diya curled up with her pillow tightly, and seemed to be murmuring something; Weisser had the most standard sleeping posture, and her body was slightly glowing; Vichy slept the most soundly, and it seemed that she was exhausted.
"I originally just wanted to see them put on their wedding dresses and be satisfied..." Ash muttered to himself, "But now I really don't want to leave."
"I want to stay a few more days, even if it's just to be with them for one more day."
"I know I can, but every day I stay, I become more eager to live and more reluctant to leave. It can only be now, and it can only be me."
"Come on, death madman."
Ash took one last look at Sonia, Diya, Weisser, and Vichy, and with a helpless smile, he said softly, "It's all because you like me. Now I have to become someone worthy of your love."
As the wind blew up the curtains, a photo floated gently onto the bed. The photo showed four brides watching the parade in the castle. Vichy was evil and charming, Weisser was holy and quiet, Diya was lively and lovely, and Sonia was charming and dashing... Their most beautiful moments were perfectly captured in the photo.
Sonia suddenly opened her eyes, she sat up and looked around the room, but she didn't know what she was looking for. She looked down and saw a photo on the bed, picked it up and saw a vague shadow, but she rubbed her eyes and looked again, there was no shadow in the photo.
There were only four of them, the brides.
PS: I will adjust my schedule tomorrow, watch a movie, do some other things, and take a day off. It's the end of the month and I want to ask for some monthly tickets. I wonder if you have the money handy.
