Another World Witch Training Manual

062. Unexpected Gain

"Eve," Xinlai suddenly asked, feigning seriousness, "if Lorenz came looking for you one day, would you leave with him?"

When Eve heard Sinley mention Lorenz, she paused for a moment, then turned to look at Sinley.

"Why...why are you bringing him up?"

"..."

Xinlai was silent for a moment, then smiled helplessly, "I saw his name on the guest list."

"what……"

Eve visibly panicked. She awkwardly straightened her clothes, then asked weakly:

"Did you...did you see him there just now?"

Xinlai shook her head. "Answer my question."

In Eve's view, this question is a bit like her current boyfriend asking her, "If your ex-boyfriend came looking for you, would you choose to leave me and go with him?"

A poor answer could cause a lot of trouble.

"I, I..."

Seeing Eve's conflicted expression, Xinlai suddenly felt that Eve needed to experience an argument with Lorenz so that she could see her true thoughts.

"I'm not feeling well, why don't you wait for me in the garden?"

Xinlai roughly pulled Eve's hand off, then patted the dust off her arms, put her hands in her pockets, and walked to the other end.

"Xin...Xin Lai..."

Eve wanted to reach out and grab Xinlai, but then felt something was off and put her hand down.

She watched Xinlai's figure disappear around the corner, sighed indifferently, and chose to walk towards the garden alone.

Unsurprisingly, after taking only a few steps, Lorenz, the one who had put her in such a dilemma, suddenly appeared in front of her.

……

……

Seeing this, Xinlai walked away indifferently.

He wasn't worried that Eve would suddenly change her mind, since her ideas went against Lorenz's, and their breakup was only a matter of time.

As for whether Lorenz would do anything out of line... Sinley believed he wouldn't.

As a wanted criminal, Lorenz could not possibly enter this masquerade ball under a legitimate identity.

Moreover, if they were to cause trouble and get caught, Eve would also be implicated, which would only exacerbate the rift in their relationship. Lorenz wouldn't be that stupid.

Without thinking further, Xinlai turned around and found Dali, who was hunting for women in the crowd, and quietly followed behind him.

As expected, Dali set his sights on a noble widow who was always drinking alone in the hall.

This time, it seemed like a lucky break, and Dali actually got his hands on a meal. The noble widow saw that Dali had a decent face, so she naturally didn't refuse him. The two chatted for a while and then hit it off immediately, heading towards the guest room that Rieskech had prepared for them at Tansteen Castle.

Xinlai was not a troublemaker.

But he is absolutely vengeful, and having inherited the blood of the Golden Radiance royal family, he has an extremely strong possessive nature.

In the simulation, Dali's disrespect towards Eve almost led to Eve being discovered.

But Sinlai didn't care whether it was a simulation or not, and his performance made Dali the first eunuch at the banquet.

He leaned against the wall, silently counting the time.

But the commotion inside told Sinlai that he had clearly overestimated Dali's true strength.

Less than three minutes.

It's actually over.

Although it barely passed the mark...

But judging from the woman's earnest demands in the room, the lonely and isolated noble widow was clearly not satisfied.

Xinlai couldn't wait any longer; he still had to pick up Eve.

So when Xinlai turned the doorknob, she was about to force it open.

There was a moment of silence inside.

"You! You better hide!!"

Dali jumped up abruptly, then asked in confusion, "Why should I hide?! Aren't you a widow?!"

"I have a man!!"

"Damn it...why didn't you say so earlier?!"

The sound of clothes being put on quickly came from inside. "Who is your man?"

This question seemed to have touched a nerve with the woman, and she fell silent for a moment.

"Say something! If your man's rank is lower than mine, I can be with you openly and honestly," Dali asked anxiously, looking at the doorknob that kept turning.

"Yes……"

The woman sighed, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked at Dali:

"It's Kobok."

The doorknob is not moving.

The sound of dressing stopped.

The air in the whole world seemed to freeze.

Xinlai: ?

Dali: ¿

Dude, this is...

For a fleeting moment, Xinlai felt a pang of sympathy for Dali.

If a man as dignified as Kobok were to discover that his wife and Dali were having an affair, Dali and his entire family would likely be ruined.

Dali, who was putting on his pants at the head of his bed, must have thought about this problem as well.

In that instant of world silence, Xinlai forcefully broke the doorknob, and with a "bang," her hand passed through the wooden door, unlocking it from the inside.

Xin Lai kicked open the door and entered the room, only to see a woman in a black halter top, her clothes disheveled.

Dali has disappeared.

The woman realized the person wasn't Kobok, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Then she pulled the covers up and exclaimed, "You...who are you?! How did you suddenly barge into my room?"

Xinlai ignored the woman, looked around, and asked, "Where is Dali?"

"..."

"Wh...what Dali? Don't slander me..."

Before the woman could finish her rambling, Xinlai didn't hesitate at all and flung open the curtains. Dali, completely naked, was cowering and staring at him.

Seeing that her scheme had been exposed, the woman fell silent, and silence once again spread.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Xinlai ended the image-capturing spell and happily saved the video of the process from breaking down the door to finding Dali inside.

"Who...who are you?!" Dali glared angrily at Xinlai. He had thought it was Kobok himself, given Xinlai's aggressive demeanor just now!

Sinlai did not answer Dali's question, but simply smiled.

then……

"Bang"

Xinlai showed no mercy. Her left and right punches dealt high damage. She launched a fierce knee attack on Dali's lower body and then a powerful elbow to his nose. With a muffled thud, Dali was knocked to the ground in pain in just a few blows, curled up like a shrimp and clutching his groin as he howled in agony.

The woman beside her was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe, cowering in the corner of the bed, afraid that Xinlai would do the same to her.

Xinlai glanced at Dali, who was lying on the ground writhing in pain, and nonchalantly shook her clothes.

He then glanced at the woman again, and said in a completely emotionless voice,

"I took a picture of what happened between you and this guy. If you don't want Kobok to know, you'd better find a way to redeem yourself."

After saying that, Sinlai kicked Dali in the stomach again.

With a soft "Oh," Dali's face turned as red as a pig's liver, and the veins on his neck bulged. He had lost the ability to groan, and Xinlai left satisfied.

The woman watched in fear as Xinlai's figure disappeared through the doorway. After a while, she dared not get out of bed and cautiously approached Dali.

"Are you... alright...?"

Dali felt as if his skull had been ripped open, and he could barely feel the throbbing sensation anymore...

"Quick, call a doctor..."

"Smack, my smack... I can't feel it anymore..."

"..."

……

……

Unexpectedly, a meal with Dali yielded unexpected results, something Sinlai hadn't anticipated.

He walked contentedly toward the bathroom where Eve and Lorenz had argued, his steps light and brisk.

Furthermore, he also saw Kobok talking to someone...

Oh…poor Kobok.

It seems Skechers' poor performance wasn't due to external factors; it turns out it's a family trait...

From now on, Fessael should be renamed Legendary Green King.

Xinlai shook her head helplessly, then quickly walked to the bathroom.

The interior was exactly the same as the simulation, and faintly, one could hear Eve's resolute refusal:

"I'm sorry... Lorenz."

"I can't leave yet..."
