Miss Dragon, the BOSS, will not be captured.

"Thank you for your forgiveness. I lost my composure just now."

What made you so emotional? What caused your sudden disappearance?

"It's my illness..."

Ye Qingxian didn't hide anything from Esther and explained her actual physical condition to her in detail.

"Wow, there are only three days left. No wonder you reacted so strongly."

After listening to Ye Qingxian talk about so many things in the real world, Esther constructed a framework for the "real world" in her mind, but she could only know what it was like by going to that world herself.

Unfortunately, she doesn't have the ability to travel between worlds. A very small number of great mages on the continent of Faya might be able to summon portals to other worlds, but it would be difficult to find where those old guys live.

After crying, the human girl in the maid outfit looked even more fragile, giving off a heartbreaking feeling.

“Wipe your knees off, they’re covered in dirt.”

"Ah."

Ye Qingxian brushed the dust off her knees, then noticed that her stockings were torn. She said to Esther with a guilty expression, "I'm sorry..."

It was clearly Astrea who stepped on her, causing her to fall to the ground and tear her stockings, but now she's apologizing.

Estia remained expressionless, making it impossible to guess what she was thinking. She must be furious if her bottom line had been crossed.

“It doesn’t matter.” Estia didn’t care at all. “However, things have become serious now.”

Since Ye Qingxian said that only dragon tears could cure star psoriasis, then Esther would try to create tears. She wasn't in a hurry before because she knew other dragons and could have them make tears and send them over.

Unfortunately, the dragon clan she knew was very far away from the Netherworld Dragon Abyss, and there was no teleportation array connecting them. It would take at least a week to travel back and forth. Now, Ye Qingxian only had 3 days left to live, and it was indeed too late.

"Come with me to the witch's workshop, let's hurry."

"Thanks……"

Is the issue of touching Estella's body really over? Has she not come after me?

"I'm helping you not because I owe you anything, but simply because I'm kind-hearted. Also, you're not allowed to cry in front of me anymore."

(I just saw my past self in your crying...)

"I understand... I will try to control it in the future."

“And another thing,” Estia turned around as she walked, “what do you take me for?”

"I……"

"That scene was really funny."

"..."

Ye Qingxian covered her chest with her hands and silently followed behind Esther.

She was emotionally agitated and couldn't control her thoughts.

Perhaps it was because she subconsciously regarded Esther as a reliable person that she threw herself on Esther in her moment of collapse.

In reality, her relationship with Estia wasn't even that of friends; the distance between them was quite obvious.

Chapter 43, Page 039: The Witch is an Angel

The closure of the Youjing Longyuan dungeon has affected a large number of players. Apart from the strategy team, those who set up stalls at the dungeon entrance suffered heavy losses and began to protest to the official team.

Under pressure from players, the official team had to issue a statement saying they would do their best to speed up the dungeon maintenance process.

However, in reality, the official team does not have the authority to modify the game content. They are merely a shell company, and all game content is handled by a super AI, which no one has the right to interfere with.

Against this backdrop, Ye Qingxian in the Abyss of the Dark Realm was also in a very tense state.

"This is Miss Witch's workshop."

Estya knocked on the door of the building in front of her, and Ye Qingxian stood beside her waiting. At the same time, she smelled a sweet fragrance, which seemed to be coming from the crack in the door.

"It smells so sweet..."

"Surprised? I forgot to tell you, Miss Witch's workshop sells all kinds of sweets."

"Dessert?"

"She is the best dessert supplier for Youjing Longyuan."

As they talked, they heard footsteps getting closer and closer from inside the door.

"By the way, what's the witch's name?" Ye Qingxian wanted to prepare in advance.

"Cake puffs".

"Cake puffs?"

Ye Qingxian immediately thought of cream puffs, a spherical pastry originating from France, which she had tasted a few times in real life.

Is it a nickname?

"My real name."

"Well."

The witch's real name is Puff? That sounds rather cute...

"I could smell Xiao Ai's scent even through the door."

The workshop door was pushed open from the inside, and Miss Puff came out wearing an apron.

Her flowing gray hair was dotted with many black and white spots, which, upon closer inspection, turned out to be cream and chocolate. Similarly, her apron was stained with various colored dessert toppings.

"Miss Puff, I've come to ask for your help today." Estia got straight to the point, which surprised Puff.

"They didn't even ask me what the latest dessert was. It seems like things are quite serious."

"I need you to make a potion that can induce tears, urgently."

"Potion? No problem, but who is this maid?"

"I...I...Ah! My name is Ye Qingxian!"

The sweet scent emanating from the cream puff made Ye Qingxian momentarily lost in thought, but fortunately, Esther gently kicked her, pulling her back to reality.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, lovely human lady~"

Puff's sweet smile easily captured Ye Qingxian's heart, leaving her stunned, her eyes losing their sparkle, staring blankly at Puff.

"Puff, you've disturbed others again."

"Oh! I'm so sorry!"

Puff raised her hand and cast a sobering spell on Ye Qingxian, dispelling her temptation and protecting her from being tempted again.

"What just happened?" Ye Qingxian wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth with her hand.

"Some weakling human has such poor mental fortitude that he was seduced by a witch." Esther immediately switched to her sarcastic mode.

"..."

The only human present was Ye Qingxian herself; the so-called "someone" was a specific reference!

"I'm sorry, my temptation is passive, and most humans can't resist it."

Witches and succubi are different, and their abilities are also different. 【Sweet Temptation】is Miss Puff's special ability.

"So that's how it is."

"You actually believed Miss Puff's words of comfort? You can resist the temptation of passive skills as long as you are over level 50."

"..." Ye Qingxian fell silent.

"Alright, Xiao Ai, stop teasing her." Puff stood in front of Ye Qingxian. "Come sit in my workshop. While I'm preparing the potion, you can eat as many of the desserts as you like."

"Um, thank you."

"It's okay~" Puff smiled sweetly, "Don't be shy, just treat me like an older sister."

"Ok!"

Angels! Compared to Esther, the witch before me is practically an angel descended from heaven!

"Hmph!" Esther snorted coldly and walked straight into the house. When she passed by Ye Qingxian, she deliberately stared at her with a sharp gaze: "As my maid, you can't even resist a temptation. You're a disgrace to me."

"Uh……"

Ye Qingxian glanced at her maid outfit and then remembered that her current identity was still Esther's maid.

When Estia entered the room, Puff said to Ye Qingxian with some surprise, "Astia is usually very gentle to everyone, why is she so rude to you?"

Ye Qingxian couldn't answer the question immediately. After hesitating for a while, she said, half guessing and half certainty, "Perhaps it's because I'm a human and don't belong here?"

“It’s possible that there are no humans in the Netherworld Dragon Abyss.” Puff patted Ye Qingxian’s shoulder warmly: “Don’t worry, I’ve known Xiao Ai for a long time. She’s a girl who’s cold on the outside but warm on the inside.”

"Cold on the outside, warm on the inside..."

Regardless of what others thought of Esther, Ye Qingxian had almost never seen Esther show her any "warmth".

Of course, the key to the problem may be herself. As an ordinary, even somewhat weak, human player, she seems out of place in the game's most difficult dungeon.

However, Puff's statement about being cold on the outside but warm on the inside is not entirely unreasonable. Even now, Ye Qingxian does not know the real reason why Esther helped her. The two of them have different positions, so how could they help the enemy?

Could it be that she felt sorry for him and wanted to help him? But the other party was Esther, the "evil dragon" dwelling in the Dark Abyss, making it hard to believe that she could be acting out of kindness.

Ye Qingxian went through everything that had happened to her since she met Esther. At first, she was wronged, and later Esther kidnapped her as a princess. No matter how you looked at it, Esther had wronged her. But you can't say that Esther helped her out of guilt, can you?

Even with such a slim possibility, Ye Qingxian was hesitant to believe it, because in her mind, Esther was somewhat terrifying...

Puff led Ye Qingxian into the workshop. Calling it a workshop was an understatement; it was more like a dessert shop. Apart from a small door leading to a dark room, the rest of the decor was no different from a dessert shop.

The display case was filled with a dazzling array of desserts, many of which Ye Qingxian had never seen before. Esther had already started eating, still displaying her terrifying appetite.

"I'll go prepare the medicine. Just treat this place as your home. If you're hungry, just grab any dessert from the cupboard."

Puff walked through the small door and disappeared into the dark passage. Although Ye Qingxian was curious about what was inside, she wouldn't do anything unnecessary.

The tear-inducing medicine was her only hope; all she could do now was wait. As for the desserts Puff had offered, to be honest, she had no appetite for them.

"Hey, maid over there!"

Estia sat arrogantly on a chair in the room, saying, "I'm too lazy to do it myself, you feed me."
