Mage Manual-Chapter 1275 - 926: Meiwa’s Love Lecture

When the sixth rainbow rain refreshed all mages, Sonia and Freyja’s Rainbow Holy Grail also finished solidifying. However, compared to them who survived the ordeal, it was actually the Dazzling Star Mage Legion that heaved a sigh of relief — the Wandering Mages had long been decimated by them, leaving only the Dazzling Star Mages who were ordered to clear the field having to persist.

Fortunately, it ended, otherwise, this small group of Dazzling Star Mages would also have been kicked back to reality by them.

Going back to report, they wouldn’t even know how to write it. If they said that a few hundred of them were overwhelmed by seven beautiful female mages, would the higher-ups think they watched too much Dedarose?

It wasn’t just the Dazzling Star Mages; all mages who entered this scene were perplexed — even if these seven female mages knew each other, they wouldn’t necessarily trust each other, right? The Rainbow Holy Grail is a rare opportunity, extremely precious, even the heritage of the Ghost Prophet might not compare, family might even fall out over it, so why could they unite as one?

What exactly was it that connected them?

Watching the mages disperse like a tide, Meiwa directly collapsed onto the green brick floor, hugging the Sword Maiden’s thigh and said, "So tired—"

Sonia glanced at the nearby open-air café: "Let’s go sit over there and distribute the spoils."

Freyja spread her arms towards her, blinking: "I don’t want to walk, can you carry me over?"

Sonia was slightly taken aback, then chuckled, squatting down to lift Freyja in a princess carry. Meiwa wrapped her arms around the Sword Maiden’s neck, proudly making a victory sign towards her companions, her smile as sweet as a little girl’s.

Filly couldn’t help but look at Siflin, who nodded slightly. As Meiwa’s strength increased, her intelligence seemed to proportionally decrease; although her position should be the leader of the team, she was more like everyone’s favorite group pet, extremely clingy, extremely fond of acting cute, preferring to use her watery eyes to charm her companions. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

The Medical Practitioner had discussed privately with Purple Moth, believing the main reason was Meiwa’s increasingly strong desire for love conflicting with the reality of Ash’s absence. At her age, Meiwa was already in the phase where her desire burnt to wield a sword against foolish men, classified as high-risk needing to register residence and travel paths at the Crime Hunting Hall, especially when she had someone she liked, it was like adding fuel to the fire — except this was more like a volcanic eruption.

In a way, they all felt that Ash’s departure was very timely. If he had left a bit slower, Ash’s life path might have only ended up leaving reports of "Model Citizen Freyja valiantly kills cult leader".

However, in this situation, Freyja chose celibacy. Even though she’s quite adept at rewarding herself, logically speaking, those little rewards couldn’t satisfy Meiwa; if time passed without emotional release, Meiwa would almost certainly twist and revert to a normal Blood Moon citizen.

But she encountered Siflin, Hanna, and Tamasi.

The reason Meiwa acted coy with them was actually to gain emotional support to fill the void left by Ash. Of course, this wasn’t meant critically, just like how singles often act cute and playful in online chat groups with others, sharing cute cat photos, to gain emotional comfort.

Though Siflin and the others didn’t dislike the coquettish Meiwa, once she gained the "Bewitching Aura", her power grew larger and would involuntarily emit her pink emotion. Siflin, being a cold-blooded creature, could resist a bit, and Tamasi, a steel-hearted girl, could hold on, but Hanna, a normal person, was almost driven to an inner turmoil by Meiwa’s teasing.

Since seeing in the diary that Ash planned to return to the Kingdom of Gospel, Hanna had set a trap throughout the country. Even if it meant defying authority, she wanted to teach Ash a proper lesson, not for anything else but to punish him for creating such a wicked Meiwa!

At the same time, they couldn’t help but pray for Ash.

After all, Freyja wasn’t intentionally using the Bewitching Aura against them, its power wasn’t even one or two percent. If Meiwa ever encountered Ash and unleashed the full force of her Bewitching Aura, they couldn’t imagine what could happen — Ash burying both bed and himself immediately?

Now seeing Meiwa acting coquettishly towards the Sword Maiden, and the Sword Maiden seemingly subtly influenced by her Bewitching Aura, Siflin and Hanna had slightly curious expressions.

You usually pamper your sisters with lustful teasing, and they can’t do anything about it, but the one you’re teasing now, has a hostage to vent their passion...

Unaware of her companions’ complex feelings, Freyja was placed on a chair by the Sword Maiden, and she cheerfully thanked her, then asked: "Sonia, can I have everyone drink the Holy Grail together?"

"I don’t need it." Filly hurriedly said, and Nia walked away immediately to show her stance.

Freyja looked at Sonia, who pondered for a moment and said: "You all contributed to helping us, both emotionally and logically we should share with you."

"But Nia and I are a bit special, so drinking it won’t do much." Filly shook her head: "Though I accidentally drank some, it’s because I wanted... to let the master taste it. If he could drink it directly, I actually wouldn’t want a single drop. Don’t worry about us, you all enjoy it."

They had previously drunk the Holy Grail Jade Liquid, but aside from improved physical fitness, there were hardly any other changes. Even Nia had lost interest in competing for that resource.

"Not much use, still some use."

Freyja obstinately said, "This is the result of our joint effort. There can be a difference in how much one drinks, but if you don’t want even a drop, I would feel like I’m bullying you."

At this time, Sonia raised her eyebrows, "Filly, Nia, are you willing to give me your share of the Holy Grail’s Jade Liquid?"

Filly: "I’m willing."

"Then I won’t be polite, since you said you wouldn’t use it," Sonia said as she lifted the Rainbow Holy Grail, "but there seems to be something else you won’t use, so I suppose you won’t mind if I take it—"

Nia almost dashed over to snatch Sonia’s grail, took a small sip, and then put it back. Filly bit her lip lightly, but still came over to pick up the grail and took a shallow sip.

Then it was the internal distribution among the five female mages. Siflin and Hanna, aware they didn’t contribute much, only took two sips of Meiwa’s grail. Tamasi took a big gulp, leaving half for Meiwa.

However, Freyja eyed Sonia’s grail with envy, "Can I have a sip of yours to see if it tastes different? Of course, you can have a sip of mine too!"

Sonia didn’t refuse. The two exchanged cups and drank them down. As they put down the grail, they subconsciously licked their lips and smiled at each other.

Paw-Paw Sword Saint really liked this Meiwa they met for the first time. Earlier, when Freyja suggested they share drinks, she consulted Sonia first instead of deciding on her own like it was a bribe. Kind-hearted, grateful, versatile, and a cute little sister who loves to act cute, who wouldn’t like her?

"Give this grail to Filly," Freyja handed the grail over, "Sonia’s lover was teleported away by the grail; you must be very anxious."

Just as Filly reached out, Nia rushed over to snatch the grail and hugged it tightly, staring straight at Filly. The little lamb hesitated for a moment and then gave up competing with Nia.

But Freyja couldn’t help but speak up for Filly, "Nia, you want to chase after Sonia’s lover too? Do you have that right?"

"What right?"

"Filly just had a liquid exchange-level wet kiss with him, and during the kiss, he was holding Sonia’s hand tight, thinking about Sonia," Freyja loudly declared Filly and Sonia’s accomplishments, "Do you have any accomplishments with Sonia’s lover?"

Nia stared at Filly with wide eyes, an incredulous expression as if she had been betrayed. Filly turned her head away, covering her mouth with her hand.

"I..." Nia bit her lip lightly and impulsively blurted out, "He touched my whole body!"

But she was overwhelmed with shyness after saying it and immediately went to a corner hugging the grail.

Now it wasn’t just Filly; even Sonia’s pupils contracted, only Freyja remaining calm, nodding in thought, "The wet kiss earlier was somewhat unavoidable, but touching someone’s whole body shouldn’t be so. It must have been out of a strong personal will. So Nia indeed has the right to pursue him."

"Come to think of it, Sonia, you and Nia look very much alike. Are you twins?" Meiwa tilted her head, "And you both like the same person... Your relationship is so interesting."

"I don’t know," Sonia’s voice took a twist, her face showing a dangerous smile, "It seems he has a lot he hides from me. However, with what I already know, the ambiguous connections he has with other women are at least more than a handful."

"So that’s how it is," Freyja nodded, not too surprised, as such messy relationships are very common in the Kingdom of Blood Moon, "Do you accept him like this?"

"Huh?"

"If he is someone who likes many women, would you accept him?" Meiwa said earnestly, "Take me as an example; the lover I like is also someone who is very promiscuous. During the time he was away from me, he established life-and-death dependencies with many women. Although I’m confident, at this moment he truly prefers those women over me."

"But I like him, including this little flaw of his, and even if he likes others, I will accept it," Freyja said, "I have such awareness that made me determined to like him."

"Sonia, you’re different from me. I feel you don’t fully accept your lover; you suffer because of his shortcomings and feel sad because of his actions. In my place, there are three proverbs, though I no longer abide by them, they still hold some truth."

"All relationships that make you worry will taint you, all relationships that make you feel wronged will hurt you, and all relationships that change you will control you."

Freyja held Sonia’s hand with concern, "If you will feel pain because of your lover, I hope you will carefully consider whether this relationship is worth your continued investment."
