Full-time Mage: Heavy Water Returns to the World

……

The moonlight shines.

In the quiet mountain path, only the occasional rustling of the forest and the slow, deliberate sound of footsteps could be heard.

A man and a woman passed through the Goddess Hall and arrived at Fragrant Hills, which faced Goddess Peak across the distance. The whole mountain was covered with a sea of ​​flowers, and the fragrance was overwhelming.

At the end of the sea of ​​flowers, an elegant little pavilion stands quietly. Upon closer inspection, a swing is set up there, with green vines interspersed with flowers, swaying in the night.

Asha'ruya arrived at the door of her attic, gently pushed open the wooden door, bowed slightly, turned her head, and smiled charmingly.

"Please come in, Brother Nan Yi~"

Throughout the journey, Asha's behavior remained so obedient, as if the two of them had actually known each other before and were quite familiar with each other.

Only Nan Yi knew that he had never seen Asha's Ruya while he was in Norway; this was the first time the two had met.

Nan Yi nodded and entered the boudoir of the Parthenon Saintess. The interior decoration was quite simple and elegant, making it impossible to tell that she was a saintess above all others.

Behind her, Asha Ruya followed closely in, closing the wooden door behind her. At the same time, a chaotic aura emanated from her.

"This is a simple isolation formation."

Asariya stepped past Nan Yi, a fragrant breeze wafting by, and knelt down at the tea table in front of her. With her delicate hands, she picked up the teapot, filled a cup, and pushed it towards Nan Yi.

"This is Longjing tea that I specially brought back from Hangzhou. Brother Nan, could you please check its quality for me?"

Seeing this, Nan Yi sat down opposite Asha Ruya, shook his head and said, "I don't drink tea much, so I can't help Miss Asha Ruya in checking it. You can just call me Nan Yi. Brother Nan is too cheesy."

Nan Yi drank the tea in front of him in one gulp, and Asha Ruya covered her mouth and chuckled when she saw this.

"Then I'll call you Southern Military Intelligence Bureau."

"I've long heard that the Southern Military Intelligence Bureau and Sister Chu have a very good relationship. After meeting her today, I'm even more curious about Sister Chu."

"If you have the chance to come to China, I'll introduce you. Qingxuan really enjoys interacting with pretty girls." Nan Yi nodded.

"Pfft~"

"Then I'll leave it to the Southern Military Intelligence Bureau. I'd also like to see just how outstanding someone is who has earned the praise of all the marine demon researchers in Donghai City."

Upon hearing this, Nan Yi looked at Asha's still smiling eyes and said calmly, "I didn't expect Miss Asha to know so much about the news that the East Sea City military had blocked."

"The Military Intelligence Bureau is too kind. I just happened to notice Miss Chu's research experience and went to great lengths to learn about it."

As she spoke, Asha Ruya suddenly leaned forward, her alluring curves almost touching the coffee table, her eyes brimming as she looked at Nan Yi.

"But what I'm more curious about is how the blood-red alert in Donghai City was lifted. The Mitsubishi family is quite tight-lipped about that."

"I wonder if the Military Intelligence Bureau can clear up my doubts."

"Hasn't Miss Asha's answer already been given?"

From the moment they entered, Asha'sia never steered the conversation in the right direction, as if the two of them were simply having a normal chat.

Nan Yi continued speaking.

"Instead of discussing things that have already happened, I'd rather know something about Salang."

"Hehehe~ Thank you for the reply from the Southern Military Intelligence Bureau."

Asariya poured Nan Yi another cup of tea, its fragrance spreading out.

"But Salan is one of the seven cardinals of the Black Vatican; her information isn't cheap."

“Since Miss Asharea has taken the initiative to contact us, she must have already decided on a price,” Nan Yi continued.

Upon hearing this, Asha's meaningful expression vanished, leaving only a radiant smile.

"What if I wanted Brother Nan?"

Asha's ambiguous words could easily lead people to misunderstand. Although Nan Yi knew Asha's character, he was still unsure of what she meant at this moment.

If the goal is to win over Nan Yi and the Chinese forces behind him, it wouldn't actually be very beneficial for Asha'ruya. In the struggle for the Goddess title, the Chinese influence is negligible.

“Miss Asharea, could you elaborate a bit more? If you're after the goddess, I don't think we're a good choice.”

Seeing that Nan Yi spoke frankly and was not affected by her words at all, even Asha Ruya began to doubt her own charm.

Few men in this world are completely unmoved by her.

"The Southern Military Intelligence Bureau really has no sense of romance." Asha Ruya rolled her eyes. "Fine, enough joking."

Asha's lips curled into a slight smile, like a shrewd little fox.

"Actually, what I want is very simple, something that should be easy for the Southern Military Intelligence Bureau and Sister Chu."

Nan Yi rectified the gods and awaited Asha's next words.

"I want information about convicting celebrities."

To condemn the Shadowborn?

Upon hearing those four words, Nan Yi's eyes sharpened instantly. Looking at the excessively beautiful face in front of him, he wondered what the other person meant.
What exactly do you want?

Upon hearing this, Asha Ruya smiled sweetly.

"Don't be nervous, I have no ill intentions."

“I have investigated. Since the Ike family was wiped out, they have been completely under Sister Chu’s control. With the help of Sister Chu’s relationship with the Southern Military Intelligence Bureau, they have naturally turned from a criminal organization to a legitimate one. They have transformed from a small family supported by the Judgment Shadows into a large family with official backing. They have not only participated in the development of the new city, but also entered some military projects.”

"If it weren't for the Southern Military Intelligence Bureau and Sister Chu, the Ike family would have been wiped out by the local court long ago, right?"

"I've always been curious why Sister Chu would get involved in this, doing scientific research and being the hidden head of a vampire family. The difference is just too big."

"until……"

"I have learned some secrets through certain means and have roughly come to a conclusion."

"Sister Chu..."

"Has a mark of sin been planted on him?"

"..."

The small pavilion in Xiangshan fell into a deathly silence.

Looking at Asha's faint smile, Nan Yi suddenly realized how terrifying this woman was. She seemed to be asking questions, but she already knew everything.

But right now, Nan Yi was clearly more concerned with another question: "Where did you find out? From the Dark Dimension?"

Now it was Asha's turn to be stunned. Even the smile on her face froze, and for a moment she didn't even notice that Nan Yi had tacitly agreed with her words.

Because she had never told anyone about the Dark Dimension, no one knew that she had made a pact with the darkness. Compared to Parthenon, the towering tree, the Dark Dimension was her true support.

But now, this secret has been revealed so easily by Nan Yi, it's like realizing while chatting that you're completely naked in front of the other person.

“Miss Asharea, there’s no need to be nervous. There’s no conflict between us for the time being, and no one who shouldn’t know about this will find out.”

"I just want to confirm the source of the information."

Asha's senses returned, and she quietly looked at Nan Yi's face without saying a word. She stared at him for a long time, as if trying to discern something from his expression.

After an unknown amount of time, Asha's eyes finally stirred, and her red lips parted slightly.

"The Southern Military Intelligence Bureau is becoming increasingly astonishing."

Asha's face lit up with a smile again.

"But judging from the Military Intelligence Bureau's performance, I think I might make even more money from this deal."
