They only need to undergo spiritual baptism and live a normal life; they are not obligated to strictly abide by religious rules.

Before Bézier, Lizzette had seen some of her sisters who had already begun to live ordinary lives, only to have their purity stolen by the men they loved at night.

She didn't understand it then, but now she understands some of it.

"Lord Lei Zhe... are you still awake?"

With a shy blush on her face, Lizzie knelt down next to Reiji, who was lying on the bed, and whispered to the man in front of her.

She knew that Reiji was no ordinary person and that she would definitely be discovered as soon as she entered, but even so, Lizzette followed her heart's desire and did it.

“...Lizzie”.

Turning his head, Reiji sighed as he looked at Lizzie in front of him. His golden eyes shimmered with starlight in the darkness, clearly reflecting the girl's delicate features.

Lei Zhe is not a wooden character, nor is he a sadistic harem man who controls his upper body with his lower body, taking in every woman he meets, loving every woman he falls in love with, and sleeping with every woman he meets. He is more like a human bulldozer.

He was not the kind of person who would be aroused by a minor like Lizzie; he could sense Lizzie's dependence on him.

After all, being protected in such a dangerous environment, and with a man who travels through time to save you appearing in front of you, the probability of not being tempted is really quite small.

If Rezzer were in Lizzette's shoes, knowing his future was bleak, and a beautiful girl traveled through time to change his fate and save him, he would also have an outrageously strong liking for her, and it wouldn't be hard to imagine him falling in love with her.

Therefore, Reiger could guess what the girl wanted to do, but at this moment he absolutely could not let her take the initiative. He had no romantic feelings for Lizzie, nor did he desire her body.

After calling the other person's name, Lei Zhe suddenly reached behind them with one hand, grabbed their shoulder with the other, and then pulled them into a hug.

"Ah!" The sudden pull and the embrace made Lizzie scream cutely, but after she came to her senses, a hint of anticipation flashed in her shy eyes.

Her little head rested against that reassuring chest, her entire body almost buried in his embrace.

But Rei Zhe did nothing. In the next instant, he pulled the thin sheet over the girl and hugged her like a child.

“Hmm…” Listening to the steady heartbeat of Rezer’s chest, Lizzie looked up and could see Rezer’s handsome face, which seemed to be meticulously sculpted, but the look in his eyes did not have the lust that a man should have in the girl’s memory.

Clearly, in the memories of the spring and the dream of truth, men would become like wild beasts when faced with such situations.

"Lord Lei Zhe... I..."

"Lizzie, let's just stay together peacefully like this. This is all the tenderness I can offer you."

Razer held this insecure and dependent child in his arms. His feelings for Lizzet were the same as his feelings for those children in Black Bullet. If she wanted his extraordinary affection, then he was sorry...

Did I...do something that you dislike?

Her hands involuntarily gripped Rezer's clothes tightly against his chest. Hearing this tactful rejection, tears welled up in Lizzet's eyes, along with a sense of loss.

She was also afraid that the other person would dislike her, so she felt panicked.

"No, it's just that I can't respond to the emotions surging in your chest right now."

He gently stroked the girl's head and spoke softly, calming her panicked emotions.

But hearing the man holding her confess his inability to reciprocate her feelings, Lizzie's reserve and shyness faded. She pursed her lips and revealed her most sincere longing, saying:

"I... love you, Lord Reiji. Before we part tomorrow, I want to offer you my purity. You said you would personally turn me into a witch. A witch... is not a pure girl."

These words were the final decision the girl made after learning of the impending separation.

She had nothing to be grateful to Lei Zhe for, except for her own purity, which she could share with him along with her emotions.

Starting tomorrow, she will no longer be Lygate, but the witch Lyseroth.

With titles such as the Witch of Babylon, the Witch of Lust, and the Witch of Flame, how could she possibly be associated with purity?

"It is my honor to be liked by a pure girl. I don't want to lie to you, I can't make any irresponsible promises to you, and I certainly can't do such a thing to you."

"Our encounter was truly dramatic. I was keeping my promise to save you in the future, but I never imagined it would turn out like this."

Listening to the man's bitter and helpless words, Lizzie felt a mix of emotions. Only after truly opening her heart could she see what kind of feelings Rezhe had for her.

Was it merely because of a promise? Was the way you saved and cared for me simply because of a promise you made to your future self?

Why do I feel resentful when I shouldn't be feeling this way?

Lizzie looked up at Rezer's golden eyes with a complicated expression. No matter how many times she looked at them, she loved those beautiful eyes. With mixed feelings, she didn't want to pressure Rezer anymore, so she asked:

"Lord Reiji, how did you meet my future self?"

"...We were enemies at first, after all, you were a vicious witch back then. When I defeated you and was about to kill you, I originally planned to casually throw your soul into hell, but in the end, I did just that..."

Reiji recalled his less-than-pleasant encounter with Liselotte. His momentary lapse in judgment had led to everything that was now. If he hadn't held back, he wouldn't be in this situation now.

Of course, Razer didn't regret it. He had gained a powerful witch in return, so it was a good deal.

"Hmm... then why did Lord Reiji let my future self go?"

However, when Lizzie heard Rezer describe their future encounter, she trembled slightly.

Little did she expect that her encounter with Lord Razer, as a future witch, would be so full of tension, and that she would almost be sent to hell by Lord Razer.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. After experiencing something like that, my mind was completely twisted. What good could come of two people meeting?

Then, why did he and Rai Zhe, who were originally enemies, let him go, and how did they later make a pact?

Lei Zhe simply looked down at the curious yet nervous girl in his arms, patted her head, and whispered:

"Because at the moment when Liselotte was about to fall into hell, your helpless, sad, and crying appearance appeared. I was very interested in how you suddenly transformed from a wicked girl into a helpless little girl. After seeing your memories and learning about your life, I let you go, even though you were my enemy."

"Afterwards, during what was a fairly pleasant time together, we made a contract that I would help you rewrite your past as payment for serving me."

After hearing this, Lizzie's hand, which was gripping Rezer's clothes, kept wavering between loosening and tightening.

I never expected that I would be saved because of my appearance. But if I put myself in their shoes, after experiencing that kind of thing, it's normal for me to cry.

The malice that has befallen me is simply too overwhelming.

"Lord Reizhe, are you only letting me go out of pity?"

"Yes, there is also resonance between people who are also pitiful. There is a saying in the East: 'Don't advise others to be kind if you haven't experienced their suffering.' If I were a girl and went through what you went through, I might not be half as kind as you."

"Lord Lei Zhe..."

Lizzie pursed her lips, buried her head in Rezhe's arms, and held him tightly, feeling the immense security and happiness in his embrace. Then she asked in a muffled voice:

"Is there anything pitiful about someone like you?"

"Yes, I was just an ordinary person like you at first, living my own peaceful daily life. But when I went out for a meal or trip with my family, I unfortunately encountered a cannibalistic ghoul."

Looking at Lizzie, who resembled a child in his arms, Rezer's eyes held a gentle smile and memories as he softly recounted his own story, as if telling a bedtime story to a child.

"A cannibalistic...ghoul?" Lysette swallowed hard upon hearing this. Based on that sentence, she already had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going to happen.

"They are monsters that can only feed on human flesh and look exactly like humans. They are also called ghouls. My parents and my sister were eaten by these guys right in front of me. If someone hadn't come, I probably would have become their food too."

Lizzie felt a chill run down her spine upon hearing this. Although she had already guessed the tragedy that would follow, she hadn't fully imagined that someone as powerful as Lord Reiji would have such a past.

"My experience back then was somewhat similar to your dream. Driven by hatred and a desire for revenge, I also wanted to gain power to take revenge. My goal at the time was to kill all ghouls until they were completely wiped out."

"I will kill any ghoul without mercy, regardless of whether they are old, weak, women, children, kind or not, even helpless infants, and then throw their souls into hell."

At this point, Rezhe gently stroked Lizzie's cheek in his arms, guiding her to look up at his burning golden eyes.

In Lizzie's dazed gaze, she saw countless twisted undead fighting and devouring each other in Rez's eyes, which seemed to be burning with hellfire, and some of the undead were letting out miserable howls in the hellfire.

An enormous number of undead, too many to count, wailed in hell, while countless others fought and slaughtered each other amidst frenzied cries.

“Ugh…” Even though Lizzie had experienced war, she instinctively trembled and curled up when she saw this scene. Then, realizing her fear and retreat, she turned pale.

Because of her retreat, she saw it as rejecting the person she longed for, as fearing and excluding him.

The girl saw Razer's calm gaze and saw no emotion from her actions. She simply spoke softly to her:

"This is the true nature of the man you admire, a being no different from a demon. The shining qualities you rely on and love about me are also evil lights that should be avoided and never loved."

It wasn't meant to discourage Lizzie; it was simply to tell her that he wasn't the prince in her eyes, nor was he as perfect as she imagined.

Reiji cannot allow himself to become someone else's presence in Lizzet's eyes; he is simply himself and will not try to be someone else's presence.

If someone you cherish wants you to be excellent, then Leizhe is willing to change and become even better.

However, he could not become the beautiful and gentle being in Lizzette's eyes; that was not him, and could never be him.

The so-called overlords and gods are those who do whatever they want, follow their own will, and trample on and rise above all rules, laws, and morals in the world, breaking the so-called shackles, constraints, and frameworks.

This is the kind of domineering demeanor a god should have, but Lei Zhe's heart will not show that kind of domineering attitude to those he cherishes. He can crush the shackles and constraints imposed on him by others, but he cannot easily break the constraints he has placed on himself.

P.S.: Please vote and recommend! Some people like harem stories because they're more exciting, but that doesn't fit Lei Zhe's character. A harem is fine, but it depends on Mengmeng's methods as his sister-in-law. Will the methods she used on Lei Zhe Mountain be effective? After all, she's good at that kind of thing...

Chapter Eighty: Rosemary's Longing, The Witch's Redemption

"I......"

Faced with Reiji's self-confession of his true self, which seemed to make her want to back down and deny herself, Lizzet simply gritted her teeth and responded with her actions.

To Lei Zhe's surprise, she suddenly reached out and grabbed his arm, then approached him with tender affection in her eyes.

"..."

With her slightly widened eyes, Lizzie looked at the pale blue eyes before her, tears streaming down her face. Her eyes were filled with longing and affection. Her face was almost identical to Reiji's. She left her thoughts on the lips of the person she admired.

It was probably just a light kiss, the kind of kiss a naive elementary school student would give her, and that was the limit for Lizzie. It ended after a light touch full of emotion.

"No matter what Lord Rezhe is like, even if he is a demon, he is the demon who redeemed me. I will accept everything about you. Whether you can reciprocate my feelings or not, please let me stay by your side."

Lizzie gripped Rezer's arm tightly and spoke frankly about her innermost desires.

Ah, I don't want the man to leave, I absolutely don't want to lose him, I want to hold on tightly to this ethereal golden light.

Please pause for her a little while, or shine your light on her a little longer, because she is undoubtedly happy right now.

For her, even if that dazzling golden color was inherently evil, it was a light that gave her salvation.

In her dream, God did not respond to her faith and desires, but this golden light, which should not have been adored, gave her equal care and responded to her requests.

Protect me, cherish me, redeem me, so what if the other party is a demon?

She had already been tinged with the other's colors; Razer was the dawn that redeemed her.

Lizzie's eyes flashed with unimaginable determination and longing as she forcefully embraced the man who was so close to her.

Deep within their hearts and souls, both she, who was saved across multiple timelines, and the present-day Lizzie, see only the light that belongs to Reiji.

Once the door to her heart is opened, all those multiple emotions resonate and merge with Lizzie.

I want to reach out and touch that one and only light, even if I can't become as dazzling as the other person, I want to get it by any means necessary!
