"Well...By the way, Iowa, what you did just now was really powerful. You made her lose consciousness with just one shot." Isidor changed the subject. "If you don't want to talk about it, forget it. I'm not really interested in your relationship anyway." Iowa said, dragging Esna aside and helping her change into decent clothes. Her movements were very skillful, and she seemed to have long been accustomed to taking care of Esna. "I'm a little curious, what is your relationship with Esna?" Isidor asked. “I don’t know how to describe it. It should be the relationship between an enemy and an avenger. The last race of dark elves perished in her hands.” Iowa said with a hint of murderous intent in her eyes, but she did not put it into action in the end. "So, you are taking care of your enemies?" "Yes, this is the most ridiculous thing in the world. But if it weren't for Esna, I wouldn't be able to stand here alive." Iovia said calmly. Chapter 44: Maids in the Sanatorium "I don't quite understand. Anyway, if there's nothing else, I'll take Nymega away first." Isidor said as he walked to Nymega's side. "You can't leave, Mr. Isidor."
At this moment, Esuna, who had just woken up, called him from behind. "Anything else?" Isidor asked. "You are the key to the Cup of Babylon, and only you can activate it, so I need your help." Esna stood up and said. Isidor hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether he should agree to Esna's request. "If you are willing to help me, then I swear - I swear in the name of the Knights of the Noldor: I will definitely solve the problem of your soul degradation." Esna added. "But even though I have evolved now, there is still a big gap in strength between me and those monsters. Wouldn't it be a drag if I were with you? Even if I work hard to become stronger, it will only speed up the collapse of my soul." Isidor said. "Don't worry, I have a way to make you stronger while being as safe as possible." Aisina smiled. "Oh? What's that method?" Isidor immediately became interested. "As long as you understand the concept of becoming stronger, you can find a loophole. In short: the so-called 'becoming stronger' that will cause the soul to collapse refers to the enhancement of skills and numerical values, but becoming stronger in a broad sense is more than that." Aisina explained. "If it's not about improving stats and skills...then how can one become stronger?" Isidor asked in confusion. "If everyone only relies on stats and skills to fight, wouldn't it just be a simple game of comparing strengths? However, in fact, the outcome of every battle is unknown, and there are many examples of the weak defeating the strong. Why do you think this is the case?" asked Esina. "I understand! It's the combat skills, right? The experience in combat, the use of skills and weapons, these are all factors that affect victory or defeat! If you improve in these aspects, you can avoid the impact of soul collapse!" Isidor said with sudden enlightenment. "That's right! I promised to teach you swordsmanship before, but unfortunately I have never been able to fulfill my promise. If you want to learn, I can teach you starting tomorrow." said Esna. "Really?" Isidor suddenly became happy. Esina always boasted about her swordsmanship, as if she could handle even the thousand-handed monster with a sword. If he could really learn it, wouldn't it be very beneficial? "Of course, go and settle this girl down." Esna said with a smile. "But aren't you going to the north of the continent? If you practice here, won't it delay your trip?" Isidor asked worriedly again. "No, the environment in the north is very dangerous. I am currently waiting for my teammates to meet up. There are two more on the way. I will officially set off only after they arrive." Aisina replied. "In that case, I feel relieved - see you tomorrow!" Isidor nodded, picked up Nymega and walked down the clock tower. Dora Mei was still standing under the bell tower waiting. When she saw Isidor coming out, she hurriedly trotted forward and asked worriedly, "How is it? Is she willing to treat Nimica?"
"In fact, she has been cured, but it seems that she will be weak for a long time," Isidor replied. "Then let her live in the guild's nursing home. There are special caregivers there. I will apply for high-level treatment for her, and all expenses will be paid by the guild." Dora Mei said seriously. "Eh? The sun rises from the west. When did the guild become so generous?" Isidor said in surprise. "I have sent people to verify it. The body of 'Silver Moon Scimitar' was indeed found outside the town. Combined with the testimony of the hostages, it can be confirmed that it was you who did it. Eliminating the leader of the thieves' group is a great achievement for the entire Grimdor. From this point of view, you can be said to be the benefactors of the entire guild, and this treatment is nothing." Dora Mei said with a smile. "Then thank you for your help. I'm not very good at nursing." Isidor nodded. "Then please follow me. I have already requested a room and you can move in today," said Dora Mei. "Eh? Us? Isn't this the room requested for Nymega?" Isidor asked. "You'll know when we get there." Dora Mei smiled, waved for the carriage that had been prepared on the side, and took the three of them to the sanatorium in the south of the town. As soon as he arrived, Isidor immediately understood why he could live there. Because this was not a hospital-like institution as he had imagined, but a beautiful villa area. The entire sanatorium was protected by a wall, and inside were single-family villas. Many beautiful girls in maid outfits were busy between the villas, mowing the lawn or carrying supplies, which was very pleasing to the eye. "Many high-ranking officials of the Adventurer's Guild and some retired top adventurers live in this sanatorium. Not only those from Grimdor, but also those from other nearby towns who meet the requirements will be sent here for recuperation. The guild has invested a lot of effort here, so safety and comfort can be guaranteed." Dora Mei explained. "Wow, there are so many maids." Isidor couldn't help but sigh with his eyes wide open as he looked at the large piece of white flesh exposed around the waist of the maid who was bending over to water the flowers in front of him. "Ahem, Mr. Isidore, were you listening to me again?" Dora Mei said awkwardly. "I'm listening, I'm listening! Anyway, if you live here, there will be many maids serving you day and night, and you can have fun every night, right?" Isidor said excitedly. "Mr. Isidor, it is Miss Nymega who will be served by the maids day and night. As a family member, you can only visit her temporarily and cannot stay for a long time. In addition, there will be no nightly revelry. The maids here are all serious workers." Dora Mei reminded helplessly. "Hehe, I'm just using a metaphor, just a metaphor. So, which building is Nymega's room in?" Isidor asked. "It's right here. Although no one has lived here for a while, daily maintenance has been done, so there is no problem moving in right away." Dora Mei said, taking out the key to open the door, and walked into the room with Isidor. "This place is so big! I've never lived in such a nice house in my life." Isidor put Nymega on the soft big bed and sat on it himself, enjoying the soft touch. "Master, Master...are we going home?" At this time, Nymega had woken up, crawled over like a kitten, and pressed her entire upper body on Isidor's thighs. "Yes, we're back home. We're safe now, and I've killed that bad woman." Isidor stroked her head and comforted her. "Now that it's safe, let's do it. The master hasn't favored me for a long time. Serving the master is a maid's job." Nymega's consciousness was obviously in a daze, and she reached out and pulled Isidor's clothes. "Well, I won't disturb your sexual pleasure for now. The maid will report tomorrow. Just come to me if you have any questions." Dora Mei said. "I'm sorry, Nymega lost her composure. Let me comfort her first." Isidor had no choice but to wave goodbye to Dora Mei. "Okay, you've just recovered, and the doctor said you can't do any strenuous exercise," Isidor reminded. "Don't try to lie to me. Although I have been unconscious, Abe's perception can be synchronized with my memory - Master, you are leaving, right? We will stay here and wait for you to come back, but as a parting gift, please enjoy a night with your maids!" Nymega said, hugging Isidor's neck and kissing his cheek. "Okay, I will stay with my maid tonight and fulfill all your wishes." Isidor was moved by what she said, so he hugged Nymega and rolled onto the bed, pressing her tightly under him. Chapter 45: Even though we don’t have wings, we still have a spiritual connection Isidor kneaded Nymega's skin under her clothes and felt that the feel was very different from before.
Presumably, Nimega and Abe have completely merged into one at this time, so their skin has become a material close to that of slime. Compared with a real person, it feels more like silicone and is elastic. "Master, how is my skin? It's not too distorted, right?" Nymega wrapped her arms around Isidor's waist and back, but her tone and intonation sounded like Abe's. "Is it Abe?" Isidor asked gently. "It's Abe, the second maid Abe also wanted to serve, but because she didn't have a human body, she was always embarrassed to offer herself to the bed. Now that I have completely shared a body with Sister Nimega, I can pass myself off as the human Abe." Abe said emotionally. "Really? I'm just afraid that I won't be able to tell you two apart in the future." Isidor said with a smile. "Actually, there's no need for you to make such a clear distinction. After all, we are all your maids." This time the answer was again in Nymega's tone. "I found that when you speak, your blue eyes become bright and the red ones become dim; when Abe speaks, it's the opposite." Isidor noticed it keenly. "You've discovered all this, so hurry up and don't keep Abe waiting too long." Nymega said, caressing Isidor's chest. Isidor nodded, and was about to take a step further into the lotus pond when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure at the door. "Who is it?" Isidor turned around and asked hurriedly. "It's me. The door lock is broken and I can't go out. I see you're having a great time but I don't want to disturb you." Dora Mei said with a tearful expression. "Why don't you stay together? I don't mind anyway." Nimega teased. "What nonsense are you talking about? You do your thing and it has nothing to do with me." Dora Mei said, continuing to try to pull the door lock, but her eyes involuntarily drifted to Isidor. "I've thought about it carefully, and this suggestion makes sense. Miss Nymega's body hasn't recovered yet, and she can't bear too much. As a representative of the guild, I have to think about her and share some of the burden." Dora Mei's eyes flashed with love patterns. "Ah?" Nimica said in surprise. "Wait, this doesn't seem right." Isidor quickly conducted an appraisal on Dora Mei and discovered that there was a negative effect of "Charm" in her status bar. He looked at his panel again and was surprised to find that he had gained an extra racial skill: [Charm LV1] After reading the introduction, I found out that it is actually a passive skill. The description is: If an alien has a crush on you, you will unconsciously sublimate that crush into love. "Is this the consequence of touching the Cup of Babylon? Esuna seems to have a similar reaction... but how do I stop it?" "Enough!" Isidor roared, and the situation suddenly reversed. When it got dark, Isidor took a sip of the wine on the table and said with emotion: "Three against one and three killed in return, do you know how to play?" After drinking a bottle of wine, Isidor slowly felt that things might be more troublesome than he had imagined - if this skill was always effective, wouldn't his romantic debts increase? Although this is not a bad thing, skills that are not under your control are always troublesome - after all, locked skills usually have negative effects. It would be fine if the women I attract are as tolerant as Abe and Nymega, but if there is a yandere type among them, wouldn't I be in danger of being stabbed like Makoto in the BE line? After careful consideration, Isidor opened the panel and found the "Skill Fusion" that he had never used. The effect of this skill is that it can merge two similar skills into a new skill. Because it seems that it will lose a skill, Isidor has never used it, but now it seems that this skill may come in handy. Isidor carefully reviewed the skills he currently possessed: [Special skills: Hypnosis, Patience, Skill Fusion, Appraisal]
【种族技能：棍棒精通LV10、进化潜能LV10、野性狂暴LV10、邪恶召唤LV1、魅惑LV1】 [Professional skills: Backstab LV1, Agility LV1] Generally speaking, there are three types of skills, namely racial, professional and special. Since it is stated that only skills of the same type can be combined, if you want to remove the charm, you must choose from the racial skills. Skills like Evil Calling and Evolutionary Potential, which look promising at first glance, must not be replaced, so what needs to be considered is sacrificing one of the stick mastery and feral frenzy. Isidor thought about it and finally decided to sacrifice Savage Fury. Although the bonus effect of this skill is amazing, the negative effect is also huge. I activated this skill in the tomb and almost killed Nymega. Because of this, I didn't risk activating this skill when fighting the Silver Moon Scimitar. In comparison, the stick mastery is much more controllable. Although my current main weapon is a sword, it seems that I can also enjoy a certain bonus. After making up his mind, Isidor simply activated the "skill fusion". [Lost skills 'Wild Rage LV10' and 'Charm LV1'] [New skill acquired: 'Shock Wave LV5' (not evolved)] [Wild Shockwave: Consumes stamina to continuously accumulate energy. When fully accumulated, you can use any part of your body to launch a shockwave, repelling and damaging the target in front.] The system prompt sounded quickly, and Isidor read the newly acquired skills several times. Although it needs to be charged before it can be activated, fortunately it consumes stamina to activate. Because of 'Patience', one's stamina is almost never used up, so this skill can basically be considered as free of consumption. As for why it was already LV5 when he first acquired it, Isidor guessed that it was the result of taking the average of the two skill levels before the fusion and then rounding it down. But what interested him most was the (not evolved) entry at the end of this skill. Could this skill evolve? At present, the highest level of the skill is LV10. If it can become stronger through evolution, then it will obviously raise its upper limit. After reading the skills carefully, it was already late at night. Thinking that he had to go to Esna to learn swordsmanship tomorrow, Isidor hurried to bed. Unexpectedly, as soon as he got on the bed, the two women came up to him in a daze, holding his arms on the left and right, and wrapping their legs around his body, as if they were using him as a large pillow. That night, Isidor had an unusually hard time sleeping. Chapter 46: No cigarette afterward, but love and breakfast The next morning, Isidor opened his eyes and saw that the two women beside him were gone. He got dressed and saw that two people were busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen. As an adventurer, Nymega was not good at cooking. She made the kitchen smoky and choked, and she kept coughing. It was Dora Mei who patiently helped her clean up the mess. Seeing that the two were talking happily, Isidor did not disturb them, but just waited quietly at the dining table. Not long after, two women walked towards the dining table carrying several plates of food that were no longer recognizable. "Mr. Isidor, you're already up. This is the loving breakfast Miss Nymega prepared for you. Even though it looks a bit unpalatable and the taste is not good, I promise it won't kill you." Dora Mei pushed a portion of food in front of Isidor and said. "Dora Mei, what happened yesterday..." Isidor was about to apologize, but Dora Mei pressed her index finger on his lips. "Don't say any more. It's good to maintain the current relationship. I still have work to do in the Adventurer's Guild, so I'll leave you for now." Dora Mei said, giving him a light kiss through his fingers, and left the room before Isidor could react. "Eat." Nymega said to Isidor with loving eyes.
"Nimega, are you okay? Let the maid take care of the cooking." Isidor said as he picked up what looked like fried eggs with a fork and put them into his mouth. "It's okay. As long as I don't fight, this body can handle it. And as your maid, of course I am responsible for my master's food." Nymega leaned her elbows on the dining table and said with her chin supported by her hands. Isidor smiled, and a sense of happiness that he had never experienced in his previous life spread throughout his heart like a hint of warmth. He then ate the not-so-delicious meal in big mouthfuls. "So, is this the reason why you had diarrhea the whole morning and only came to practice sword with me now?" Esina said indifferently after listening to Isidor's story.
