I don't want to conquer witches anymore.

Duke took a deep breath, then took Amber's outstretched hand and said softly:

"let's go."

The two walked hand in hand away from Amber's house, but before they had gone far, the door slowly opened and two heads peeked out.

"I smell the stench of love, Xingyin... Ouch, what are you doing?"

"Call me 'sister'." Xingyin withdrew her hand that had been flicking Xinghua's forehead expressionlessly, then pinched her chin and looked at Duke and Amber's backs. "Interesting. I didn't expect the fake name he told us was his girlfriend's name."

Xinghua's eyes sparkled with gossip, and she didn't even bother to retaliate for the earlier flick on the forehead. Her eyes gleamed as she asked, "Do you think we should sneak over there?"

Xingyin hesitated for a moment.

Her naturally composed nature prevented her from doing anything so suspicious, especially since they had only just arrived in this strange city. Furthermore, the Queen of the Clothing Kingdom had no interest in matters of romance or love. Now that she knew "Amber Cecil's" name was Duke and that they had a close relationship with this Amber, she felt there was no need for them to risk following her.

But at that moment, certain impurities mixed in with her soul affected her without Xingyin noticing, causing her to change her original thoughts.

She casually said, "As long as you call me 'sister'."

"No problem, sis (today only), let's go!"

"?"

I never expected Xingyin to be so spineless; I feel like I've lost out a lot.

……

"I see. So you're going on a date with witch Anne tomorrow. No wonder you needed to 'test the waters' with someone." Amber said, linking arms with Duke, with a hint of schadenfreude. "I think I understand your predicament now. Are you afraid that Anne will drag you away tomorrow and force you into marriage?"

"……No."

"You hesitated!"

Duke looked away and abruptly changed the subject, asking, "Do you know Annie?"

“I don’t know them. There are so many witches in the floating city, it’s impossible for me to know them all, right?” Amber shook her head. Because of her spatial talent, she was a celebrity among the witches in the floating city. Everyone knew her, but she didn’t know all the witches. “However, witch Annie is very famous. I’ve heard of her name.”

Is she that famous?

"She does have some personality issues; she's notoriously possessive. Her extreme behavior once drove two of her former female friends to become enemies. Fortunately, she's quite withdrawn and rarely makes friends, let alone boyfriends, so she hasn't caused too much trouble," Amber said, rattling off her stories. "The last time Witch Annie reappeared in the public eye was with the infamous Duke scandal. Tsk tsk, why did you have to provoke her?"

Although Amber didn't know Anne, after meeting Duke, she had curiously looked up who his five girlfriends were and had some understanding of Anne's personality and past.

Duke said expressionlessly, "The person involved is now full of regret, deep regret."

"Alright, let's not talk about your ex-girlfriend anymore," Amber said with a grin, changing the subject. "Where should we go on our next date, Duke?"

"First and foremost, of course, are the famous historical sites of the floating city."

"Huh? What is it?"

Duke pointed to the glowing street ahead—a certain luminous creature was relentlessly pursuing the troublemaking adventurers.

"A world-famous painting depicts Guangbao's act of bravery."

Chapter 121 I Choose to Follow the Follower Who Is Following You

Duke's group of romantic interests come to the art exhibition to view a famous painting, "Guangbao's Heroic Act".

The image shows a man and a woman holding hands, standing in the crowd of onlookers, their backs to the viewer.

An unnamed ex-girlfriend of a succubus asked, "Who is that guy?"

"It's Duke."

The succubus girl asked again, "Who is that woman?"

"It's amber."

The succubus girl was very puzzled: "What about Cecil?"

"Guangbao acted bravely and righteously."

While admiring Duke's heroic act with amber in hand, his mind was filled with these strange Soviet jokes.

To be fair, Cecil's heroic actions are indeed a beautiful sight in the floating city. Not only are her fights entertaining, but they are also incredibly satisfying, with the entertainment value of a WWE exhibition match. Many Cecil fans are simply people who enjoy watching the show, and they watch every episode because of her wonderful heroic deeds.

The floating city is a city full of adventurers. There is no shortage of warm-hearted and righteous adventurers, but there are also plenty of adventurers who are used to misbehaving and have poor personal morality. Therefore, troublemakers and heroes have achieved a dynamic balance in this magical city.

Overall, while the floating city is relatively safe, with no major crimes and no environment for organized crime or gangs to thrive, minor security issues arise frequently. In terms of frequency of incidents, Gotham City is considered to have a more peaceful and honest society compared to the floating city.

Therefore, Cecil was often either doing a good deed or on his way to doing a good deed on his days off.

Duke, a fan of Guangbao's lighthearted, fun-loving style, would often wander the streets to find Cecil, who was performing a heroic act, and then enjoy a 4D action blockbuster from a bystander's perspective. Watching his friend beat up thugs was far more stress-relieving than watching a mindless popcorn movie in a theater.

When Du first introduced Grete to the floating city, his first stop was to show her an action blockbuster. Today, on his first date with Amber, Duke felt he should also share his daily hobbies with her.

"How is it? Not bad, right?"

"It's really good, very stress-relieving." Amber nodded in deep agreement. "I finally understand why there are members of the 'Cecil Fan Club' who follow Cecil around every day. Isn't this much better than any idol's concert tour?"

"right!"

Last year, a few "idol girl groups" that were supposedly very popular in the human empire came to the floating city. Amber bought a ticket to go and take a look, and regretted it immediately—wasn't this action blockbuster with its hard-hitting punches much better than the soft singing and dancing of the girl groups? Moreover, the powerful witches, the female knights' killing, and the decadent doujinshi were more... well, which was more erotic depended on the art style.

When Duke was juggling five relationships, all his actions were directed by the system's missions. The fact that he could juggle five relationships without (temporarily) capsizing was entirely due to his stunning good looks and the system's meticulously crafted missions. Otherwise, if this 100% straight man were left to decide how to date, even a witch wouldn't be able to manage it all, and wouldn't know where to go.

For this date, the Witch's Guide System did indeed release corresponding daily tasks. As long as Duke accepted the tasks, he could return to the auto-play mode and be carried to victory.

However, Duke didn't accept the task. He preferred to rack his brains himself to figure out where to go on a date rather than let the system get involved. After thinking about it all night, he came up with the classic trilogy of "watching a movie, eating, and shopping."

Compared to the trilogy of "Rabbit Man, Two People, and Overcooked," its quality is much lower.

However, compared to the seemingly endless wait for video games, the classic trilogy was relatively easy to replicate in another world. Watching Cecil's act of heroism, in Duke's opinion, was no less enjoyable than watching a movie together. Seeing that Amber was quite satisfied, Duke proudly put his hands on his hips, just about to boast to her, when he saw Amber smilingly say:

"But Duke, when are we finally going to stop talking about your ex-girlfriends? You're on a date with me today, aren't you?"

"Right...right now!" Duke immediately changed the subject, "Are you hungry? If you are, let's go eat."

"Hmm." Amber's eyes darted around, and she wrapped her arm around Duke's, moving closer to him. She said in a slightly coquettish, nasal voice, "I'm hungry."

"Then let's go."

As the two walked hand in hand away from the crowd, Cecil, who had just dealt with a few drunken adventurers harassing women, happened to be flying in mid-air and, by sheer coincidence, spotted the two on a date. To be precise, Cecil initially noticed a pair of suspicious sisters sneaking around and following someone, only to discover that the person they were following was none other than Duke and Amber.

And they were even walking hand in hand?!

Did Duke and Amber get together?

Shocking Guangbao for ten thousand years.

"No, I have to go and see what's going on."

Cecil panicked and immediately landed, concealing her radiance. She knew her tracking skills were worse than those two sneaky guys, and her target was far too conspicuous (too famous in the floating city). So instead of humiliating herself by directly tracking Duke and Amber, she chose to follow the sisters who were tailing Duke and Amber.

……

"You did this on purpose, didn't you?"

Amber's previous "anger" was actually a joke, because her older siblings had taught her dating skills when she was young, saying that sometimes a girl being a little dramatic could be fun. She had been putting this into practice in her dating life (if Bain, who had casually said that to Amber back then, knew the current situation, he would probably be kicking himself). But now she was genuinely a little angry.

"I run into nine of your 'ex-girlfriends' just by going out to buy food, right?"

"No...it's not that exaggerated. I only have five rumored ex-girlfriends."

Duke's explanation was weak because he didn't know why either—if explaining Annie's situation to Amber was considered "reporting," then taking Amber to watch Cecil fight was roughly equivalent to watching a movie, both being expected and normal situations.

So, running into Natasha and Kazuki at the restaurant you booked in advance would be a pleasant surprise.

"Is it a matter of quantity?" Amber gritted her teeth and leaned closer, pinching Duke's stomach hard as she angrily shouted, "Why are we hiding? Am I someone you can't show your face to anyone?!"

“It’s my body that’s hiding on its own,” Duke explained, sounding utterly helpless. “I don’t know why.”

"what?!"

They had just darted under the table with lightning speed under the waiter's strange gaze, and now the two of them were huddled together, keeping a distance where they could feel each other's breath on their cheeks, trying their best to keep their voices down as they argued.

When the two idiots realized that their distance was too intimate, so close that they only needed to tilt their heads slightly forward to kiss, it would still take them more than ten seconds.

Chapter 122 The Hero of Love

Duke really didn't expect that not long after they entered the restaurant, they would see Natasha and Kazuki walking in side by side. If he and Amber hadn't reacted quickly enough, they would have been spotted on the spot.

Although it wouldn't be a big deal if we were discovered, it's always better to avoid trouble.

The restaurant he had booked in advance had a tablecloth that stretched all the way to the floor, which became the perfect cover, protecting them from being seen by Natasha and Kagetsu. However, because the table was narrow, the two of them had to stand very close together to hide themselves.

"Sir, would you like to order now, or would you like to wait a moment?"

A waiter standing nearby, holding a notepad, asked very politely.

"Wait...wait a moment."

"no problem."

This waitress was clearly a worldly person. Even though the scene in front of her seemed a bit strange, she maintained her extraordinary professionalism, and her perfect smile remained unchanged. However, when she saw that Geyue and Natasha were frequently glancing in their direction, the waitress couldn't help but let her lips twitch slightly.

You've been discovered!

"What do we have to hide from? Are you so afraid of introducing me to your ex-girlfriend?"

"I'm not afraid, it's just a subconscious reaction. You better hide it, your butt is showing."

"Oh..." Amber subconsciously twisted her body, obediently tucking in her exposed buttocks, and moved a little closer to Duke before realizing, "Wait a minute, you're still being stubborn!"

"But you obediently hid yourself, didn't you? I don't think you wanted Natasha to find out, did you?"

"I didn't want to be disturbed, it was definitely not because I was afraid of being targeted by that bisexual succubus."

“Natasha, actually… uh, nothing.” Duke’s survival instinct told him that it was better not to reveal the truth now. “Shh, keep your voice down.”

"I do not."

Although he said that, Amber's body was very obedient, and he lowered his voice considerably.

What an idiotic couple!

A pair of platypuses born together, right?

Why should I be here watching them flirt?

The waitress, who was practically living in Bengbu, was bursting with complaints, but she managed a forced smile: "Gentlemen, please just call me if you need anything."

After saying that, she turned and left, leaving Duke and Amber, who thought they hadn't been exposed, squatting on the ground arguing.
