Miss Witch's Devotion Has Gone… Twisted-Chapter 211: Rest

"You haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll go cook."

After enjoying Loren's head pat, Seraphina led the other two maids into the kitchen.

If it were Mirrorheart, she would definitely be asking things like whether he wanted to eat her first or not at this moment. Seraphina was still too normal.

"Wait a moment before going. Do you know anything else about The Perpetual Observer?"

"The Perpetual Observer? Let me think..."

Seraphina began to ponder, but Loren's suspicion had already been dispelled. Nothing happened after she uttered that name.

Loren planned to later verify what consequences ordinary believers would face for speaking that name. The consequences were likely extremely severe, so Loren decided to wait until someone offended him before testing it.

"That sister said that Observers cannot interfere with reality. If they want to do something, they have to pay a great price, like losing a part of their divinity...

"All of this was heard a long time ago. I only treated it as a story back then. I never thought you would actually need it. I'll take you to find her when I get the chance."

"Mm."

The matter of going to the Uridia Kingdom should be put on the agenda. However, Loren had just returned, so he needed to rest for a while before going.

Currently, Loren's plan was to go there in the summer to escape the heat. While going to find that half-vampire, he could also conveniently go find Cecelia. Loren had promised to go find her too.

After chatting with Loren for a while, Seraphina obediently went to cook.

"Time to eat!"

Anna was the first to sit at the dining table. Although what she ate outside wasn't much worse, it was still the dining table at home that most stimulated her appetite.

"It'll be a while before Seraphina finishes cooking. Go wash up first. It's been so long outside with no chance to bathe or change clothes."

"Oh."

Anna got up and left. Loren also headed into the bathroom first.

There were several bathrooms at home, so there wasn't much worry about not having enough space.

Water flowed over Loren's body, washing away his fatigue.

With his physical stamina at forty points, Loren's energy was abundant. But even if his body wasn't tired, his mind would be. Loren hadn't rested properly since discovering that the God of Happiness was actually the Angel of Confusion. He even wished he could sleep with one eye open.

Loren glanced at the mirror. His eyes even had some bloodshot streaks.

He lifted his hair, exposing both eyes in the mirror. Loren always felt his eyes were hiding some secret.

There was a sense of disconnection between the two eyes, as if someone had swapped eyes with him.

"Can see through illusions, unaffected by cognitive modification..."

These were the two effects Loren currently knew about. He suspected his eyes were related to The Perpetual Observer, after all, the Observer's blessing was called 【True Sight Eye】. Just hearing the name seemed to fit these effects.

"But it can't see through physical disguises. Logically speaking, a god of such high standing as The Perpetual Observer shouldn't be fooled by something so simple... Could it be that I received an incomplete ability?"

Loren decided to move up the timeline for going to Uridia. He was becoming more and more interested in that strange vampire.

"Ah... comfortable..."

After washing up, Loren soaked into the bathtub. After all, he had money. Loren understood how to enjoy life well and had even built a bathtub at home.

Compared to those blood-sucking nobles, Loren's little bit of enjoyment really wasn't much. Moreover, he rarely used his position for personal gain. The money he usually had was earned from writing songs.

If he really wanted to use his position to make money, the amount he could rake in would be a sum even nobles wouldn't dare imagine, and he didn't take money from ordinary people either.

For example, that ten percent of assets confiscated from the great nobles of the Bardo Kingdom. That amount of money already exceeded the wealth of the vast majority of nobles within the Gedlan Kingdom.

Soaking in the bathtub, Loren turned on the record player beside him and played a song by Cecelia. This record player was also brought back from the Uridia Kingdom.

"This is what you call living..."

Being able to live such a good life in this crazy world was indeed rare. Loren was truly one of a kind. If it were someone else, they would have died who knows how many times already.

However, even while relaxing, Loren was still thinking about the dangers he faced.

"True Sight Eye is passive. I cannot control it."

Even if he encountered an illusion, Loren most likely wouldn't know, and thus couldn't conceal it. The user of the illusion could also easily discover that the illusion wasn't affecting Loren. This was the case with the Angel of Confusion this time. It probably tried to use illusions on Loren a long time ago but immediately realized they were ineffective.

This was also a troublesome point. Although the benefits far outweighed the drawbacks overall, there were still some disadvantages, preventing him from playing the fool to lure in the tiger.

"Think of a way to get back at the God of Confusion... They've already set their sights on me..." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Loren thought for a moment. Getting revenge on the God of Confusion was actually quite simple. Someone hated the God of Confusion more than Loren did.

"I'll help Noah next time I see him."

Actually, Loren had many ways to rapidly increase his strength. It's just the side effects were a bit severe. He couldn't use them on the witches, and even he himself used them very cautiously. The simplest method was to borrow power from the Outer Gods.

But Noah was different. Loren had no goodwill towards him. He himself was sufficiently fanatical, fitting the conditions perfectly. Even if he died prematurely, Loren wouldn't feel much heartache.

Noah was actually very intelligent, capable of understanding technology and magic. But he was fanatical enough that even if Loren explicitly stated he was using him, Noah would go along with it, as long as he could get revenge.

Lying in the bathtub, Loren took a look at everyone through the Abyssal Gaze Eye. They were very obedient. They didn't even take off the Abyssal Gaze Eye while bathing. They even knew Loren could see them through it...

Now, more and more people were living in Loren's home. The bathrooms were becoming insufficient. Some people were queuing up, while Anna was at Loren's door, and she was up to some small tricks.

"Don't..."

Before Loren could see clearly, Anna pushed open the door:

"Master Mentor, I'm here!"

"I remember locking the door."

"I learned a trick from Mirrorheart."

Anna showed the wire in her hand, then casually threw her clothes aside and jumped into the bathtub.

"Stop!"

Loren's shout was too late. Water splashed everywhere, the entire bathroom was splattered with water, and even the fresh clothes Loren had prepared got wet.

"Can you stop being so mischievous!"

Loren pinched Anna's face, gently pulling on it. Even as punishment for Anna, he didn't use much force.

"Oww... I won't dare next time..."

With Loren pulling her face, Anna's speech was a bit slurred. Only after she apologized did Loren let go. Anna also rubbed her face. Her adorable appearance made Loren's expression soften considerably. But immediately after, Loren's expression suddenly changed.

"Anna."

"What is it?"

"Behave. Don't step around randomly."
