What do you mean by "this is a dating game"?

Ascending, accelerating, speeding like lightning!

Golden magic lifted Sieg and Xiyou, making them unaware of their physical existence as their consciousness surged wildly.

The colors before my eyes vanished completely, leaving only a ghastly white and diluted black. The edges of all objects blurred, turning into elongated black lines that were instantly left behind.

In the blink of an eye.

Grapefruit took short breaths and realized that she had left the swamp and arrived in a cave.

A pair of purple eyes, shining brightly.

That is……

Nefarian.

Senior Nephalem was barely breathing, and blood was flowing from his seven orifices. He already looked old, but now he was even more emaciated.

He twitched the corners of his lips, as if trying to offer a friendly smile.

When I saw it, I just felt sorry for Xiyou.

"Senior, you need treatment."

Her expression was serious.

"No need. The impact of the shattered essence is far greater than I imagined. I overestimated my current abilities..."

Nefa spoke weakly.

The patient experiences pain all over their body, with severe damage to internal organs and subcutaneous hematoma.

The blueberry skin color has now turned a deep purple.

When the legion commander's essence shattered, he did his utmost to guide it, barely managing to preserve the inner fire.

But it was only enough to keep it.

The fire in his heart ceased to burn, and even the halo the size of a soybean dissipated, leaving only a tiny ember buried deep in the ashes.

One month at most.

At least three days.

His inner fire will be extinguished, and he will become an ordinary person.

Grapefruit crouched in front of Nefarian, using magic to probe.

She realized the situation was critical and Nefa urgently needed medical attention.

However, his condition was too poor; he was too weak to receive any nourishment and could not be treated with conventional emergency methods. The potency of ordinary alchemical potions would likely destroy his already damaged body.

Xiyou opened her bag and took out a small alchemical cauldron.

She looked at Sieg and said, "I'll go dilute the potion."

Sieg's expression was solemn, and he simply nodded.

"Miss Grapefruit... is very kind-hearted."

Nefa struggled to sit up.

He was breathing heavily, and it took a lot of effort just to straighten his back.

Sieg simply watched without offering to help.

He asked, "With your intelligence, you should understand my intentions. Answer me, why did you still shatter the essence and forcibly issue the rallying order after knowing there was no cemetery here?"

Nefarian replied, "I think you underestimated the power of that spellbreaker. He is not an enemy you can contend with."

Sieg wanted to laugh when he heard that!

He pointed at the hole, emphasizing his words: "I've already taken him down! Effortlessly! If you could suppress your goodwill, be a little more despicable, a little more shameless, then we could achieve the best outcome, and no one would get hurt!"

"..."

is it?

Is the Lawbreaker dead?

A happy ending.

Nephallus looked at Sieg's face and inexplicably laughed.

He let out a soft breath, his purple eyes gleaming: "It really is like... Mr. Daigen, you are extremely similar to a king I know. Not only is your tone similar when you're angry, but even the reasons for your anger are the same."

"The reason for your anger?"

Sieg asked.

"He was a benevolent king. He would not reprimand or question his subordinates if they were incompetent or failed to meet his goals; only when they overestimated themselves and were injured in the process of trying to achieve results would he show his serious face and issue a solemn warning."

Is it a revolving lantern?

As Nefa recounted the past, the pain on his face lessened considerably.

His purple eyes were filled with nostalgia, and those precious memories slowly unfolded before him.

He looked at Sieg and said, "I live at 277 Blackstone Street. Mr. Dagen, if you are interested in the king I mentioned, you can come and find me."

The bright red words flowed like water.

A system notification quietly appeared:

Nefa reveals his real address and invites you to visit.

[You have taken a solid first step in establishing a connection with Nefarian and have received a node reward:]

Reclaim a skill you once possessed.

[During your time with the Demon King Sera, you acquired the unique class "Eastern Demon King," ultimately reaching rank nine.]

You trigger memories, drawing strength from fragments of the past. You gain...

[1. Left-handed fighting style.]

[A unique unarmed combat style, drawing on the strengths of various schools, characterized by its agility and speed. Profound and mysterious, as elusive as the shadows, its attacks are fierce and swift as thunder.]

[2. The King's Gift.]

[I bestow upon you a spark. To those who are loyal to you, the spark will continually nourish their bodies, keeping them healthy and at peace; to those who disobey you, the spark will scorch their souls, tormenting them until death comes.]

[3. Intermediate Alchemy.]

You understand the basic principles of alchemy and possess considerable skill and professional competence.

Sieg immediately set his sights on "The King's Gift"!

This skill seems to offer some immediate relief, providing healing to Nefarian!

but--

"Can I use this skill now?"

Sieg frowned, uncertain.

"Demon King of the East" is a unique class.

Unique is the highest quality in "Love in the World of Fire," and it's a dark gold color.

The skills of unique professions are often overpowered, with some having impressive stats and mechanics, but players must be in the corresponding profession to use them.

Sig is now the "Lonely Dancer," a Demon King skill. Can he use it?

If we can't use it, wouldn't that be a waste of an opportunity? The Phantom of the Past only offers two rewards in the first stage.

"Intermediate Alchemy" will not be discussed.

"Left-Way Fighting Technique" is truly powerful. It is not a demon king's skill, but an extremely sophisticated martial art.

With this martial art, Sera's save file shows that Sieg's skills surpass all others.

In unarmed combat, no one can surpass him.

With the blessing of [Body of Burden], Sig's stats are quite high. He just needs a skill that can bring out his stats, and the Left Path Fighting Technique has come at just the right time.

From a purely utilitarian perspective.

At this point, there's no need to hesitate; just choose it without thinking.

"The King's Gift".

Demon King's skills.

Sieg cannot guarantee that he can use it now, nor can he guarantee that it will heal Nefarian's wounds.

This is a vague hope, and even if you choose it, it may be of no use, but you will have a clear conscience.

Sieg believes he may be too rational.

What time is it now?

They're still calculating the benefits and weighing the gains and losses. If they were kind and upright, they probably wouldn't have hesitated at all and would have already chosen the king's gift.

Let's not make a choice for now.

There's one more chance.

In Sera's save file, Sieg, as the Demon King, possesses a large number of valuable items.

Triggering the second node reward and retrieving an item might help Nefarian.

Sieg asked, "Your Remnant Blade Society is the organization that opposes Sera, right?"

Why ask this?

Nefa was puzzled. He said, "It's not so much a confrontation as a fight. The Remnant Blade is beset by internal and external troubles, and morale is low... We are indeed fighting against the Sierra, but it's more because the Sierra won't let us go."

Sieg said succinctly: "I want to join the Remnant Blade Society."

"...There's no need for that. The Remnant Blade will be a quagmire; you shouldn't come in."

Nefa slowly shook his head.

Sieg was very firm. He said, "Nefa, I don't want to go on and on. Listen carefully, you just need to say to me now—'I can recommend you to the Remnant Blade Society.' That's important."
