"Have you missed me?"

As he spoke, Altair's hand involuntarily began to stroke Eileen's waist and abdomen.

Eileen gave a relaxed "hmm" and then immediately blushed, lowered her head, and dared not look directly into Altair's eyes.

Just before lunchtime, the closed study door was reopened from the inside.

After opening the study door, Altair came out carrying Vera, who was disheveled and pale.

After going downstairs, Altair thoughtfully placed Vera in a table seat not far from him.

She then gestured to the maids to order another meal and more utensils.

But not long after, Vivian caught the two of them having a meal together, as she rushed back home.

Vivian didn't immediately reprimand them for their intimate behavior. Instead, she anxiously asked Altair, "Are you alright? I only learned about your werewolf attack last night after I went to the church's stronghold this morning."

"Why didn't you tell me about this right away?!"

As she spoke, Vivian began to punch Altair with her little fists to express her dissatisfaction and complaints.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Altair simply pulled her into his arms to forcefully end her complaints.

Holding Vivian in his arms, Altair explained, "I'm sitting here safely in front of you now, so don't worry, I'm fine. I'm not missing an arm, I'm not missing a leg, and I don't even have any wounds."

"Last night, it was just an insignificant Sequence 7 that attacked us. I didn't even have a chance to make contact with that kind of trash; Simon took care of him all by himself."

"And don't forget, I recently advanced to Sequence Six and became the Witch of Pleasure."

"Even those of the same rank might not be able to beat me. If I encounter someone I can't defeat, I'll run away."

With Altair's explanation, Vivian, who was already flustered by her concern, gradually calmed down.

So he turned to the maid serving him his meal and said, "Go and tell the kitchen to prepare lunch for me."

After the maid left, Vivian turned her gaze to Eileen, who was standing to the side. After looking her over, she said, "Come and sit down."

Watching Eileen move slowly but normally, Vivian couldn't help but sigh to Altair, "I thought the kitten would really steal fish."

"I've created so many opportunities for you, I never expected you to be so useless."

After understanding what Vivian meant, Altair awkwardly turned his head away, not daring to look her in the eye.

If Altair had the ability to freely change size, she would definitely shrink to a tiny size and disappear into a crack in the ground right now, because the current situation is just too embarrassing.

Seeing this, Vivian couldn't help but reach out and straighten Altair's head, turning him to look at her. She explained sternly, "You are now under the influence of the lingering effects of the 'Pleasure' potion."

"Look at yourself, the way you're behaving, is that even manly?"

"I don't care what you thought before, but now you have to do what I say."

After saying that, Vivian got up and pushed Eileen down in front of Altair's table, saying, "If you still consider yourself a man, you should have sex with her right now, immediately."

Before Altair could react, Vivian involuntarily began to pull off Eileen's clothes.

While pulling at her, he said, "This is what a man should do—if you only enjoy my body, you'll definitely get bored—and that won't solidify your belief that you're a man—as a man, you should conquer—"

Seeing the scene before her, Altair was quite helpless. In order to end the situation, she simply picked up Vivian and carried her up to the bedroom on the third floor.

Vivian, on Altair's back, continued to berate him. "Altair, you're not a man—put me down—Eileen, get on here."

Altair responded with a chuckle: "You'll soon find out whether I'm a man or not."

At 3 p.m., Altair received Bishop Electra alone.

After the servant put down the tea and left, Bishop Elektra said, "Count Altair, apart from the scratches on your hands, are you really not injured anywhere else?"

"I can sense that your physical condition isn't very good; it seems like you're severely anemic—"

"If there are any large-area injuries that I am not comfortable knowing about, I can send a female clergy member to treat you when I get back."

Altair shook his head and explained to Elektra in a weak voice, "You've misunderstood, Bishop. I was indeed not harmed in any other way."

"The reason I am in this state now is due to personal reasons, and I regret that I cannot disclose those reasons."

"Hmm." After listening to Altair's explanation, Elektra didn't open her mouth but spoke directly through her throat.

After taking a sip of black tea, he explained routinely, "Count Altair, after receiving your notification last night, we immediately dispatched a team of extraordinary individuals to investigate."

"I need to confirm for you now, the people who attacked your convoy last night were only three: one werewolf and two ordinary people infected with wolf venom."

"Ordinary people died on the spot, while extraordinary individuals were captured by you. There were no other people or extraordinary individuals present at the scene, is that right?"

Upon hearing this, Altair nodded slightly and said, "That's true."

After saying that, he asked curiously, "Didn't the night watchmen find the bodies of the two infected people?"

"Or is there some other unexpected event?"

"We've found the bodies you mentioned," Elektra said, then paused for a moment and added, "and not just these two."

"Not far away, we also discovered the body of an Extraordinary being that has been released and taken from the Special Being, and according to our divination, this Extraordinary being is also a werewolf."

"And beside this body, there is another extraordinary body that is releasing its unique characteristics."

"What's even more terrifying is that a battle between extraordinary beings broke out not far from where the incident occurred, about five or six streets away."

"And without exception, all of these people are extraordinary individuals who have achieved this through a different pathway."

"You should know that most of the extraordinary individuals who have mastered this path come from the Southern Continent and are members of the Rose School."

"If possible, may I take your prisoner with me? The church needs to consult with him on some matters."

"Alter smiled and shook his head, explaining, "I'm afraid I can't comply. He should be dead by now, but rest assured, I ordered the guards to interrogate him after he returned last night."

"You can take a copy if you need it."
