It felt so good to be close to the witch!

Roy's eyes gradually deepened.

According to the border duke's assessment, as long as Roy stays obediently in Blackstone Territory and doesn't approach Star Lake on the day of the Fertility Festival, he will be safe.

This was the Border Duke's primary purpose in writing to Roy, and also the Border Duke's greatest compassion as a high-ranking nobleman of Blackrock Territory for his subordinate lord.

But Roy thought it wasn't like that at all.

He had unknowingly become involved in this struggle long ago.

From the moment he thwarted Lord Denham's plot to seize Blackrock, orchestrated by the Second Prince, he had already offended the Second Prince.

For a powerful figure like the Second Prince, it wouldn't be difficult to find a little time amidst his struggle with the border dukes to crush Roy, the man who had thwarted his plans.

This possibility is not nonexistent; in fact, the probability is quite high!

Now, even if Roy wanted to stay out of it, he couldn't.

Rather than waiting to be killed, Roy's personality dictates that he prefers to take the initiative.

"call……"

Taking a deep breath, Roy looked at Lilia, whose beautiful eyes were fixed on him, and said in a deep voice, "Well done, Lilia. Your discovery has given me a more accurate assessment of the current situation."

"Next, I will remove the pollution from your body."

The Shadow Witch Lilia's eyes widened slightly, looking rather cute. Roy's words had changed so quickly, one second he was talking about serious matters, and the next he was talking about removing the pollution, leaving her unable to react for a moment.

After realizing the meaning behind Roy's words, she said with surprise, "Lord Roy, are you now able to remove even more pollution?"

"Then you should help Vivian get rid of it first. As for me, it's fine."

Roy shook his head: "Lilia, it's not that I don't want to remove the pollution from Vivian first, but given the current situation in Blackrock Territory, removing the pollution from you is the highest priority. As for Vivian, once the pollution is removed, if there's still some capacity left, I'll deal with her as soon as possible."

"...Is that so?" The Shadow Witch Lilia nodded hesitantly, but ultimately said nothing more.

“Let’s get started now, right here.” Roy stood up, took out a high-purity magic crystal and put it in Lilia’s hand, then walked to the bedside: “First, absorb the natural magic power in this high-purity magic crystal, then lie down on the bed. During the process of completely removing the pollution, your body will probably feel some strange sensations, just bear with it.”

Recalling the scene when Roy cleansed Vivian of the pollution, Lilia's neck turned slightly red, and her pale hands unconsciously clenched.

"Lilia?" After waiting a few seconds without seeing Lilia, Roy turned his head in confusion.

"Yes!" Lilia jolted awake. Because of her chaotic emotions, she didn't even think about why Roy had a high-purity magic crystal. She hurriedly closed her eyes and began to absorb it.

The absorption of natural magic is very quick.

Because the magic stored in her heart was far from reaching the upper limit of 99.9, Lilia easily absorbed it all, increasing her total magic power from 60 to 80.

After absorbing the natural magic, Lilia opened her eyes, took a step and lay down on the bed.

After handing the high-purity magic crystal back to Roy, she first clasped her hands tightly together in front of her, but after hesitating for a moment, she loosened her grip, raised her right hand, placed it on her left shoulder, and pulled sharply.

A large expanse of slightly undulating white skin was revealed to Roy as the shoulders of his dress were pulled down, causing him to swallow back the words he was about to say, "I need to hold your hand later."

Could it be that the process of absorbing the pollution for Vivian last time made Lilia believe that removing pollution requires contact with "the part closest to the heart"?

Looking at the girl's delicate collarbone and dazzlingly fair skin, Roy was silent for a moment, but finally reached out his hand.

The girl has already taken such action; if he says something else, wouldn't that make things even more awkward? It's better to just let things continue as they are...

The moment Roy's palm touched her skin, he could clearly feel Lilia beneath him shiver and a large blush spread across her neck.

The coldness in my palms was quickly warmed by my body temperature.

Roy took a deep breath, suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind, and activated his talent [Infinite Desire].

"Om-"

The total amount of pollution within the Shadow Witch Lilia is 54.

As Roy's talent was activated, the pollution within Lilia's body was being rapidly extracted and poured into the high-purity magic crystal he held in his hand.

I recommend a book to a friend: *The Witch's Feast*.

[Recommendation]: A powerful witch with mysterious powers, powers that only women can control.

Watching the witches speeding across the azure sky on their flying brooms, Louis looked down at the flying broom in his right hand, the same kind as the witches'.

The next moment, he followed.

As for how to make money and survive when you first arrive in this world?

Louis said, "Five shillings a night, what could be a faster way to make money?"

Chapter 64 The Second Talent!

Absorb... Impart...

As the contaminants were continuously extracted, the strange sensation within her body caused the Shadow Witch Lilia to purse her lips tightly, her ten glistening pink toes gripping the sheets tightly, creating messy creases.

Pollution and magic are intertwined. Small amounts of absorption are fine, but such a large-scale "release" brings a very strong sensation.

After a long time, when Roy absorbed the last trace of pollution and infused it into the high-purity magic crystal, Lilia collapsed weakly on the bed, her cherry lips slightly parted, and her eyes briefly lost their light.

With no time to worry about Lilia's condition, Roy focused his attention on the gray character panel that popped up in front of him.

-

[Original Sin Contamination Cluster Detected... In Absorption... Absorption Complete... Original Sin Characteristic Identification in Progress... Identification Complete!]

[Energy reserve progress +54%! — Of which [Original Sin Trait - Rage] accounts for 70%, [Original Sin Trait - Pride] accounts for 20%, and [Original Sin Trait - Lust] accounts for 10%]

【当前能量储备进度：102%——37.8%暴怒、29.4%色欲、16%暴食、10.8%傲慢、8%混沌】

-

Looking at the gray text panel in front of him, Roy's eyes showed a hint of surprise.

跟治愈魔女沙妮卡的“60%色欲、40%暴食”比起来，阴影魔女莉莉娅的“70%暴怒、20%傲慢、10%色欲”成分结构更为复杂，原罪特性的种类也从两个提高到了三个。

Before he could ponder the question of the types of original sin traits, a new prompt appeared in the gray character panel before his eyes.

-

【当前能量储备进度：102%——37.8%暴怒、29.4%色欲、16%暴食、10.8%傲慢、8%混沌】

[Conditions met, 100% energy consumed, activating the [Original Sin Cube]...]

[The detected characteristic of the Sinful Priest class absorbing energy is: Wrath – originating from deep-seated irritability, hatred, and anger, leading to an uncontrolled emotional outburst and a strong desire for revenge.]

[Light up the [Original Sin Cube - Chapter of Wrath]!]

[Gained Talent - [Unquenchable Wrath]]

【Unquenchable Fury】: Converts the energy in the body into "fury" and accumulates it, which will eventually erupt.

-

"Chapter of Wrath... [Unquenchable Flames of Fury]..."

Looking at the prompt in front of him, Roy fell into deep thought.

The talent [Unquenchable Fury], awakened based on the [Original Sin Trait - Rage], has a very simple description of its effect: converting energy into "rage" and unleashing it when used.

Compared to the support-oriented [Infinite Desire], [Unquenchable Wrath] is more like a pure combat talent that directly enhances combat power.

Of course, the exact extent of the improvement can only be known after trying it out.

The gray text panel provides a very general description of the talent's effects; Roy will have to figure out how to use it on his own.

Roy glanced at Lilia, who was still lying on the bed with a blank stare and whose body was occasionally trembling, and thought for a moment before standing up, pushing open the door, and going out into the spacious courtyard.

A gentle night breeze caressed the scene, and the moonlight shone like a veil.

Roy stood in the center of the courtyard, closed his eyes, and began to test the effect of his talent [Unquenchable Wrath].

The first step is to determine the ratio of fighting spirit to "rage".

Under Roy's mental control, his fighting spirit gathered at his heart and gradually formed a flame-shaped light mark.

The moment the light imprint was fully formed, Roy had consumed a full three of his 3.2 streams of battle qi!

Such a huge expenditure made Roy's heart pound.

Unable to continue accumulating "rage," Roy sensed the "rage imprint" within his heart and chose to use it.

A loud "bang" echoed in Roy's mind as the "Rage Imprint" within his heart shattered. At the same time, a torrent of rage surged from his heart, flowing through every part of his body.

"Bang! Bang!"

My heart began to pound violently, and the speed of my blood flow suddenly increased dramatically.

On Roy's neck, forehead, cheeks, arms, thighs, and other parts of his body, veins bulged, and explosive power surged within him, causing his skin to turn red rapidly, and wisps of white mist to rise from his body.

The burst of power filled Roy with an urge to vent wildly, and he turned his gaze to a hardwood stake placed in the corner of the courtyard.

Those are tools used for weapons training, and they have extremely high hardness and toughness.

"call……"

Scorching hot gas, almost like steam, billowed from Roy's mouth. He stomped his foot heavily, and with a series of cracking sounds, spiderweb-like cracks appeared in the courtyard's paving stones. Using the terrifying recoil, Roy's body vanished from the spot with a whoosh.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the hardwood stake in the corner of the courtyard disappeared, replaced by Roy slowly retracting his fist.

The steam rising from his body slowly dissipated, and his rapidly beating heart gradually calmed down. Roy breathed heavily as he looked at the hardwood stake deeply embedded in the wall in front of him, at the clear fist imprint on the stake, and a look of shock flashed in his eyes.

Is this a punch I can throw?

Thanks to the nourishment of his talent [Infinite Desire], Roy's physical strength is far superior to that of knights of the same rank.

A Bronze II Knight possesses a physical strength 3 to 3.9 times greater than the limits of an average person.

A bronze-level three-star knight has a physical strength that is 4 to 4.9 times the limit of an ordinary person.

Now that Roy has just broken through to Bronze Level Two, his physical strength is already comparable to Bronze Level Three. But even so, it's simply impossible for him to punch a firmly fixed ironwood stake that far, causing it to deform dramatically and embed itself deeply into the wall.

This is something that a Bronze-ranked player could never do!

Even Silver Knights might not be able to do it without entering a "battle aura burst" state.

Such a tremendous improvement in physical strength comes at an extremely high price.

The "Raging Flame Seal," formed by the condensation of three streams of battle qi, lasted for only 3 seconds.

Three seconds... In such a short time, in actual combat, it would probably only be enough for one or two attacks.
