Moon World Girlfriend Comes Knocking

With shoulder-length silver hair and red eyes that held a disdainful look as if he were looking at an insect, he was enough to excite some masochists with particular tastes.

"Three forms?!" Lan Ze was taken aback.

She can be both cute and mature... So this goddess has such powerful abilities besides crying louder than other beasts?

Why do you look so surprised? Shouldn't you have known already?

Kama glanced at Lan Ze with disdain, as if to say, "How can this person be so ignorant?"

Then, she glanced at Lan Ze a few more times and found that the look in his eyes did not seem to have the same "admiration" as before.

This guy really does like mature women, no, I mean older women...?

Kama came to this conclusion in his mind.

Thinking about it carefully, whether it's Tiamat, Kishinami Hakuno Ryougi Shiki, they are all considered older characters... only Sajyou Manaka is an exception.

That's true, that girl is indeed very cute, enough to make even those who don't have a thing for lolis swoon.

Just then, Kama suddenly heard Lan Ze ask, "By the way, why did you call me just now?"

Kama shook his head slightly, glanced at Lan Ze with pity, and smiled, "It's your honor to chat with you, why ask so many questions?"

She paused, then continued, "Besides, staying here and chatting with me for a bit will be very beneficial for you, won't it?"

The people in the basement are now watching us intently. The only one who wants to protect his father has been tied up and thrown into a room, leaving only Kama, an outsider, to enjoy the peace and quiet.

What she said was indeed true. If Lan Ze went to the basement now, he would probably be interrogated by Tiamat and the others about where he had been last night.

Now that he's here chatting with me, I don't have to worry for the time being... although I'll still have to face it sooner or later.

"What you're saying is so nonsensical..." Lan Ze muttered.

"Did you go out last night?" Kama suddenly asked.

She suddenly became curious about where this guy had gone last night and why he didn't come home until the early hours of the morning.

Logically, knowing so many beasts in the house, he should have at least restrained himself a bit.

Lan Ze was initially surprised, then suddenly became wary, shaking his head and smiling, "I just got up early this morning and went for a walk..."

Kama gave Lan Ze a deep look, and then said "Oh".

Lan Ze sensed something was amiss and asked, "Have you discovered something?"

He suddenly felt something was off, because the room was so quiet... although it could also be explained by the fact that everyone was in the basement, which was why it was so quiet.

But--

Now that I've calmed down and thought about it, what were a group of people doing in the basement for no reason?

And why would they need my help?

As Lan Ze thought about this, he had a vague sense of unease.

He subconsciously swallowed, then tentatively looked at Kama and asked, "Are you the only one who knew I went out last night?"

"Or is it that others...?"

Kama scoffed, "I don't know, it's none of my business."

She didn't want to get into trouble; offending so many people at once wasn't a wise move.

After saying that, she looked at Lan Ze's increasingly dazed expression and laughed with a hint of schadenfreude, "Are you alright?"

"It's nothing... I'm fine, just a little bit off," Lan Ze replied, his mood subtly mixed.

He suddenly realized a terrifying truth.

Considering what Kama had just said, Lan Ze was almost certain that his departure late last night and failure to return home had most likely been discovered.

If you go to the basement now, you'll likely be met with interrogation.

But he simply couldn't explain it.

I can't exactly tell my Mother of All and the others, "I did go out last night, and I met a mysterious woman late at night. I took her to a hotel, but we didn't have anything going on. We just played Gomoku all night."

If I said that... probably no one would believe me.

When Lan Ze thought of this, a worried look appeared on his face.

At that moment, he suddenly saw Kama raise his head slightly, look in a certain direction, and frown slightly, as if he was somewhat displeased.

"What's wrong?" Lan Ze asked.

"Someone is spying on you," Kama said.

"Spying on me...?" Lan Ze repeated, his first thought being, could it be that girl named "Arcueid"?

Then, he suddenly slapped his thigh.

It's Merlin!

Without hesitation, Lan Ze turned and rushed out of the hall, scanning his surroundings. Sure enough, he spotted the white-haired mage in a corner not far away.

Merlin clearly noticed Lan Ze as well, and was startled. He turned to leave.

This time, however, Lan Ze held nothing back. He immediately raised his hand and used the Chains of Heaven to bind Merlin, then quickly stepped forward and grabbed Merlin's shoulder.

Merlin turned to Lan Ze with a sigh and smiled, "Lan Ze, hello there... It's been a long time, I've missed you dearly."

Lan Ze grinned at him. "Yeah, long time no see."

"Thank you so much for last night," Lan Ze continued.

"You're welcome... It's what I should do." Merlin smiled calmly, but then he saw Lan Ze also smile calmly, before suddenly turning his head and shouting at the top of his lungs towards the Tohsaka Family mansion:

"Huh? You... you're Merlin? What are you doing here?!"

As she spoke, her voice traveled throughout the entire Tohsaka Family through magic.

Merlin was so frightened that his smile vanished, and he swore for the first time:

"Holy shit!"

At this very moment, in the basement of the Tohsaka Family, a girl wearing a light blue dress is sitting in a chair.

With shoulder-length light blonde hair and a delicate, lovely face, she rested her chin on her hand, toying with Magic Potion on the table with her fingertips.

After a while, Sajyou Manaka covered her mouth and yawned slightly, her two little feet, wrapped in white cotton socks, playfully fighting each other.

After seeing the little girl yawn, Tiamat couldn't help but cover her mouth and yawn as well, as if even yawns were contagious.

Shortly after that, Kishinami Hakuno was standing nearby, also covered her mouth and yawned, followed by Matou Sakura was huddled in the corner. Even Ryougi Shiki seemed to feel sleepy.

Okay... it has now been confirmed that human-to-human transmission has occurred.

At this moment, in this basement, besides Tiamat was already starting to feel sleepy, there was also Sajyou Manaka and Ryougi Shiki silently sitting in the corner. She felt out of place with these people who had a special hobby of feeding Lan Ze Magic Potion.

However, to ensure Lan Ze's safety, she reluctantly chose to stay here for the time being.

Besides these, there was also Kishinami Hakuno, who was not far away, and her junior Matou Sakura, who had no ill intentions.

Tohsaka Rin was unaware of all that had happened the night before and was still asleep, so Matou Sakura didn't disturb her older sister.

Because from the beginning, Tohsaka Rin has always been the kind of girl who needs to sleep until dawn and can't be woken up no matter how much you call her.

Sometimes she gets grumpy when she's woken up... but she never gets angry at her younger sister, because she wants to maintain her image as the older sister in front of her.

At that moment, Sajyou Manaka suddenly sighed softly and said quietly, "Where did he go? Hasn't he come back yet?"

"He left all night and hasn't come home by dawn. It's really suspicious," Kishinami Hakuno suddenly said gently.

They didn't have a good relationship with each other originally, but they were surprisingly united in dealing with Lan Ze's affairs.

In a sense, Lan Ze can be considered to have made a huge contribution to the feelings of the beasts.

"He fell into a deep sleep last night because someone secretly used hypnotic Magecraft on him. I'd better not let him catch the caster," said Sajyou Manaka in her clear and sweet voice.

"Merlin is too wary; he didn't even show his face last night. He'll be difficult to catch," Kishinami Hakuno sighed softly.

They had all noticed the hypnotic Magecraft Merlin had used last night, but Merlin was too cautious and hadn't shown his face at all, so they couldn't catch him.

"Don't let me catch him," Tiamat said in a human voice, her eyes filled with darkness.

This means that the Creation Mother Goddess is angry.

After all, Merlin secretly used hypnotic Magecraft on Tiamat's child in front of her, and Lan Ze's past experiences were also related to Merlin... It's hard not to hold a grudge.

When Merlin was mentioned, the eyes of the people in the basement flashed with murderous intent.

The only ones who could unite these beasts to fight against them, besides Lan Ze, are Merlin.

The former is interrogation, the latter is torture.

Well... there are still significant differences in essence.

Just then, Sajyou Manaka paused slightly in her action of fiddling with the Magic Potion, and turned her head slightly to look outside.

"Miss Saya, what's wrong?" Matou Sakura asked, puzzled.

"He's back."

Sajyou Manaka paused, a strange glint in her deep blue eyes, and continued, "Merlin is here too."

Almost instantly, the atmosphere in the basement seemed to freeze, the candlelight flickered slightly, and the temperature in the basement seemed to drop to freezing point in an instant.

"Lan Ze, you can't do this to me! Let go of me! Let's talk this out!"

At this very moment, Merlin outside was desperately trying to break free of the Chains of Heaven binding him. It seemed that these chains had learned a thing or two from their master, as they even used extremely erotic methods to bind Merlin.

Lan Ze scoffed, "When you tricked me into going out last night, why didn't you discuss it with me properly?"

"I knew Arcueid wouldn't lay a hand on you, and I've been protecting you in secret ever since!" Merlin shouted.

"Have you thought about what would happen if my mother and the others found out I didn't come home last night?" Lan Ze asked.

Merlin paused for a moment, then stuck out his tongue and acted cute, trying to get away with it.

Lan Ze's forehead veins bulged, and he wanted to punch Merlin in the head first.

But then, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart as he sensed an extremely terrifying magical fluctuation emanating from inside the room.

Someone came out... Lan Ze's heart skipped a beat. He glanced at Merlin and said, "I'll have to trouble you to be their punching bag for now. I'll come back when they've calmed down a bit!"

He finished speaking and turned to leave.

But then, Merlin suddenly raised his hand, grabbed Lan Ze's sleeve, and exclaimed, "Hey, Lan Ze, are you trying to escape because you saw Tiamat and the others come out?!"

"Holy shit!"

Lan Ze was startled and abruptly slapped Merlin's hand away, but the man wouldn't let it go. He grabbed Lan Ze's leg, then raised his fingers, the fingertips shimmering with a faint light.

In an instant, Lan Ze felt countless pink petals falling before his eyes, and his steps faltered slightly.

Because what he saw before him was no longer the street he had just been on, but a boundless sea of flowers.

"Inherent Domain?!" Lan Ze abruptly turned to look at Merlin, and said fiercely, "Release me right now!"

Merlin, seemingly unfazed, smiled and said, "Then you should unlock the Chains of Heaven first."

Seeing Lan Ze's obvious hesitation, Merlin knew he had a chance and quickly persuaded him, "Lan Ze, do you really want your dearest friend to die a violent death? I barely escaped from Tiamat's Sea of Life; if I were caught again, I'm afraid..."

As he finished speaking, a hint of sadness appeared in his eyes for the first time.

Lan Ze pondered for a moment.

He felt Merlin was right; there was no need for him to fight Merlin to the death here...

"Well? You unlocked the Chains of Heaven, and I'll unlock the Inherent Domain." Merlin looked at Lan Ze with anticipation, wishing he could grow wings and fly away right then and there.

Under Merlin's expectant gaze, Lan Ze finally nodded gently. "Alright, I'll unlock the Chains of Heaven, and then you can break the illusion—"

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly heard a clear, pleasant voice beside him. "Why don't you all stay here?"

Lan Ze's heart skipped a beat, and he turned his head sharply to look, only to find that a girl wearing a blue dress had appeared somewhere in the sea of flowers.

She was petite and adorable, wearing a Western-style dress, her face as fair and lovely as a porcelain doll. She slightly raised her head, looking at the two men who had momentarily frozen in shock, glanced indifferently at Merlin, then looked directly at the black-haired boy, smiling slightly, "Welcome back."

As she spoke, she glanced at Merlin with a wistful look and said softly, "You're welcome back too."

Merlin smiled slightly, "Miss Sajo, let's talk this over—"
