A Sweet Girl Won't Be Fooled By The Villainess - [Vol. 4] Chapter 40
[Vol. 4] Chapter 40: Radiance
The Holy Lotus, which could only be found with the guidance of the unicorn, was naturally quite different from ordinary lotus flowers.
However, at a certain distance from the Holy Lotus, all Ifia could do was get a rough idea.
For example, the Holy Lotus seemed to have a soft glowing buff. It was radiating light! This left Ifia in awe, thinking that the world indeed held countless wonders!
So, besides helping Saint Tiffany pick a Holy Lotus, could she pick one more? She was already thinking about bringing it to her dorm as a convenient desk lamp!
However, being a product of the Holy Mountain of the Holy See, it was private property. The Saint could, but she couldn’t.
Gee! What a pity.
Ifia never hid her thoughts from Amelia, almost as if she were about to write ‘I want it’ on her face.
Amelia, anticipating this, calmly said, “Ifia, if you like, you can pick more than one Holy Lotus.”
“Really?”
Ifia turned around in surprise upon hearing Amelia’s words.
With eyes filled with anticipation, resembling a little cat begging for treats, Amelia nodded with a smile, “Of course, but you can only secretly pick one, okay!”
Ah, Amelia is truly amazing!
( ^_^ )/
Overjoyed by the fulfillment of her wish, Ifia immediately pounced. She plunged into Amelia’s arms like a soft and delectable dessert.
Amelia gently embraced her, and soon, the desire for hugs and kisses became a reality. Excited, Ifia lifted her head, voluntarily stood on her tiptoes, and gave Amelia a warm and affectionate kiss.
Her sparkling black eyes and the radiant smile on her face showed pure delight. Completely unaware that she was gradually falling into a trap.
The purpose of Amelia bringing Ifia to the Holy Mountain of the Holy See this time was to pick the Holy Lotus and keep it close. As for the Saint Tiffany’s request, it was just an excuse.
It was strange how Amelia found the unicorn foolish and disdainful, yet she perceived Ifia’s clumsiness as extremely cute.
She liked it a lot.
Amelia, who seems to be double standards, raised her hand and patted Ifia, signaling her to go ahead and pick the flowers!
“But, Amelia, there are no boats here. How can I go to pick them?”
After leaving Amelia’s embrace, Ifia looked up at the center of the lake, a distance she couldn’t swim even if she wanted to!
“You can ride the unicorn, it can walk on water.”
“!”
Amelia is like an encyclopedia. She can provide answers to any question. Upon hearing this, Ifia immediately looked at the obedient unicorn standing not far away and waved her hand.
Hearing the call of the pure soul, the unicorn was delighted.
However, it cast a wary glance at Amelia and then walked towards Ifia with caution. Although it could have walked directly past Amelia, it deliberately took a detour.
Ifia was puzzled by this, wondering why the unicorn, which usually behaved well, seemed afraid in front of Amelia. Could it be… because Amelia’s presence is too overwhelming?
Thinking about how Amelia once single-handedly defeated the dark elves in a one-against-five battle, it was indeed quite impressive!
So, it’s not surprising.
Ifia self-consciously came up with an answer and didn’t dwell on the question any longer. Looking at the Holy Lotus in the center of the lake, she couldn’t help but rub her hands together, her eyes full of determination.
Waiting for the future light, Ifia had made up her mind to pick it!
When Ifia was eager to try, the unicorn, understanding human language, naturally knew her purpose. It didn’t stop her. Instead, it was very cooperative.
A human with a pure soul obtaining the Holy Lotus would surely make her soul even more fragrant~
Therefore, the unicorn knelt on its front hooves, neighed, and gestured to Ifia to hurry up. This made Ifia somewhat silent, feeling that this unicorn was even more anxious than she was…
However, Ifia didn’t delay too long and quickly mounted the unicorn. Afterwards, the unicorn stood up and lifted its hooves onto the surface of the lake.
It really didn’t sink!
Ifia widened her eyes in surprise, watching as the unicorn’s four hooves stood on the water without sinking, moving effortlessly towards the center of the lake.
Soon, Ifia approached the Holy Lotus, and she could reach out and pick it.
Seeing this, Ifia didn’t hesitate. She started picking directly!
From a distance, the Holy Lotus looked quite large, but when she got closer, she found it was very small and delicate, not even as big as her palm.
At this moment, it was continuously emitting a soft light, resembling a finely crafted piece of art.
Unfortunately, Ifia, who hadn’t seen a ‘self-luminous’ lamp for a long time, happily tried to pick the flowers with her hands. She directly reached out and grabbed the stem of the lotus. Just as she was about to take it, an unexpected event occurred!
Ifia suddenly felt a wave of dizziness, making her brain spin, and she couldn’t even let go, let alone call for help from Amelia on the shore.
This lotus is poisonous!
The unicorn she was riding, however, showed no changes, still standing there nonchalantly.
This made Ifia feel a wave of nervousness and fear.
She was completely unaware of her own transformation.
A pair of pure white wings suddenly emerged from behind her, unfolding in an instant.
The illusion was very realistic, and with the flapping of the wings, a few feathers fell and disappeared into the deep blue lake.
Amelia, who had been watching from the shore, frowned. She had only heard the Saint Tiffany mention the side effects of carrying the Holy Lotus, but she didn’t know that picking the lotus would also induce illusions.
Seeing the sudden appearance of the pure white wings behind Ifia, Amelia observed her facial expression change.
Ifia’s face was full of fear, and this made Amelia’s expression darken.
She instantly activated the Abyssal Domain, and the thick black magic spread rapidly across the lake, staining the water like countless viruses rushing towards the center of the lake where the lotus was.
Perhaps sensing the danger, the Holy Lotus became alert, no longer expressing affection.
At this moment, Ifia regained control of her body, and she nervously raised her hand to pat the unicorn’s neck, signaling it to run quickly!
However, before running away, Ifia snapped off two holy lotuses with two quick clicks.
Hmph!
She, Ifia, never left empty-handed… It seemed a bit inappropriate to say that. Forget it, let’s hurry up and run with the lotus!
Fortunately, the unicorn was very obedient and quickly took Ifia away.
At this moment, Amelia did not retract her magic. Instead, she became even more ruthless, allowing the black magic to rapidly cover the Holy Lotus, preparing to devour it completely.
However, before Amelia could give the next command, Ifia panicked and exclaimed, “Ah, Amelia, this unicorn has gone crazy, quickly catch me!”
The next moment, Amelia raised her hand to catch the falling Ifia from the sky.
The illusion wings behind her did not disappear, they continued to gently flap.
Ifia, relieved to have landed successfully, looked up and said, “Amelia, I picked the lotus!”
Beaming with satisfaction, Ifia raised the two lotus flowers in her hands.
She had a smile with two little dimples on her cheeks, unaware that a circular halo was glowing above her head.
