Bleed Enough and It Won't Be Awkward (Continued)

Eris raised her hand expressionlessly and covered her ears with her fingers.

After a while, Furina regained her composure, and with a hint of resignation, she shouted:

"Hmph! Whether you are a giant beast or Melusine, since you have come to Fontaine Court, you are a subject of my Goddess of Justice!"

"Yes, Lady Furina."

"Just like before, just listen to me!"

"Yes, Lady Furina."

"... Why did you just tell me such an important secret all at once?"

"Because Lady Furina asked."

Eris gave the same answer as expected.

Furina couldn't help but feel a little frustrated. She scratched her head, her chaotic emotions and thoughts tangled in her small skull.

For a moment, Frena couldn't tell whether Eris was simply too naive, or whether she was special in Eris's eyes, so that Eris would answer any question she asked truthfully.

Furina bit her lip, deciding to put those distracting thoughts aside for the time being, and asked:

"In short, no one here will notice, not even Neuvillette, right?"

"Hmm, you can't tell."

"Alright, then prove to me how you can imbue someone with the power and aura of Demon God... To facilitate the experiment, I'll transform myself into an identical ordinary person. Don't misunderstand, it's just for verification. You understand, I'm the Hydro Archon, not a mortal, right?"

"If Eris says she believes, will Lady Furina be happy?"

Eris was not surprised by Furina's almost self-revealing emphasis.

There was probably too much information today, and even Furina was having trouble processing it all at once.

Furina forced a smile. It was partly because of her slip of the tongue, but even more so because of the look in Eris's eyes that seemed to force her to believe him as long as Furina was happy.

"Whether you believe it or not, I am the Hydro Archon!"

"Yes, you are of course the Hydro Archon, Lady Furina."

"Just prove it to me quickly!"

Once again, Furina gave up entirely, ignoring everything else and only wanting Eris to prove her point.

Eris nodded, a red dagger appearing in his hand, as if congealed blood, and then he thrust it toward his own neck.

"Hey! Wait a minute!"

Furina quickly grabbed Eris's wrist.

"What are you doing? Trying to commit suicide?"

"Eris will not die. It's just that the transfer of power requires the exchange of bodily fluids, and the most direct way is for Lady Furina to drink Eris's blood."

"No, no! Even if you don't die, won't you feel pain? Besides, drinking your blood is just too weird! Let's find another way, a less bloody one!"

"Oh, there's another way."

The blood-red dagger in Eris's hand disappeared.

Furina breathed a sigh of relief.

Then she saw Eris cup her face in her hands and slowly move closer.

"Ugh!!"

Furina's eyes widened suddenly, filled with a look of bewilderment, confusion, and helplessness.

Eris gazed at Furina's bewildered and helpless blue eyes.

"Sizzle!"

After a while, Furina was still staring blankly at Eris.

Eris only stopped because of immense willpower. The bright and flamboyant blue-clad girl possessed a softer and sweeter flavor than imagined.

The silk thread connected the two, and time seemed to stand still at that moment.

"What... what did you do to me!?"

It took Furina a while to come to her senses. She covered her lips and retreated in terror.

At this moment, not only her fair and tender face, but even her hands covering her mouth were radiating an indescribable blush of shyness.

Five hundred years! Her first kiss has been preserved for five hundred years! She never imagined that she would lose it one day!

However, before the shock of her pure body being tainted had faded, Furina suddenly felt a power she had never felt before.

"This is..."

Furina couldn't help but raise her hand, following a certain instinctive impulse, towards the empty space beside her.

"Boom!!!"

The massive flow of water carved out a huge, seemingly endless cavity.

Furina's pupils contracted.

This was far more powerful than any other water-type Vision she had ever seen. Yet this was merely a casual display of power, a drop in the ocean compared to what flowed through her body.

Furina stared blankly at her palm.

"The power of the Demon God?"

Without a doubt, this is definitely a power at the level of Demon God.

Although it's unclear what level they fall into among Demon God, they are definitely not comparable to mortals.

Eris gazed intently at Furina, while simultaneously stroking his own lips.

Thank you. This Demon God Power is well worth the price.

Damn, you got off easy.

Damn, you got off easy.

Damn it...

The Anqi expressed envy, jealousy,... no, criticism and contempt at Eris's serious application for Demon God Power, which he then used specifically to harass young girls.

Furina took a deep breath, her heart pounding faster than ever before. There were two reasons: the kiss from before, and the power within her, though she didn't know the exact proportions of each.

'Calm down, calm down, I am Furina, the Hydro Archon Furina!'

Furina tried her best to appear as if she wasn't making a fuss.
