The wound was healed, the fox was full, and a sense of drowsiness gradually crept in.

Julianna knew she should maintain a basic level of vigilance, but perhaps the girl’s affinity was too strong, making her feel an unusual sense of ease, to the point where her guard was significantly lowered.

She was wary of such emotions, yet she couldn’t help but yearn for this feeling.

Ever since she became aware of her surroundings, her nerves had never relaxed.

She had to be alert to everything around her.

Those seemingly harmless, beautiful flowers and plants could be poisons specially selected by assassins for her, and the exquisite, luxurious halls could be the elegant tombs prepared for her.

Remembering that danger lurked everywhere, Julianna firmly believed that as long as she lived, she could never escape this atmosphere of constant suspicion.

But perhaps it was because she had been on edge for too long that she felt somewhat exhausted.

Only now did she realize that she might not actually dislike this sense of security, this feeling of being wrapped in safety, of resting on a beauty’s lap, and being able to sleep without any worries.

Had she fallen for a honey trap?

However, after years of living on the edge, she still hadn’t completely let go of her last shred of caution.

She slightly closed her eyes, calculating in her heart how she would make her move tonight.

Having received the healing from the Varelis Saintess, even if it was the most basic healing skill, the time she needed to recover her strength was greatly reduced.

Originally, she would only regain a tiny portion of her strength by tonight, but after Vanessa’s treatment, she was confident she could recover some of her strength tonight.

Not much, but enough to capture the Saintess in front of her, whose magic hadn’t yet recovered and was only at the apprentice level.

The thought of finally being able to rid herself of the hateful bloodline illness and using it as bait to lure out more potential enemies made Julianna feel as if she had eaten honey, her lips curling into a smile.

Yet, she remained unaware that the seemingly ordinary pet collar around her neck had begun to emit a faint, inconspicuous red light.

Seeing the little white fox on her lap gradually becoming more comfortable, Vanessa understood that she was beginning to relax.

Vanessa’s peach-shaped eyes slightly narrowed, like a holy mother bestowing love and mercy.

Have a good sleep~

As night fell and the sky darkened, the white fox opened her eyes, now filled with a swirling crimson light and a fierce glint, unlike the harmless look she had during the day.

Her eyes were now full of cunning and profound meaning.

Vanessa’s body was like a small sun.

After spending the afternoon with her, Julianna’s condition had been slowly healing under the warm aura Vanessa emitted.

She had rested enough.

She could feel the eternal glacier within her body beginning to melt slightly, a trace of magic starting to flow again, seeping into her limbs and bones.

Her fingertips grasped onto this minuscule power.

The bright moon hung in the sky, unable to warm the long, dark night.

As it grew late and Vanessa’s magic was exhausted, she could only find a large tree in the forest to shelter from the wind and rain, leaning against the trunk to rest.

Perhaps because she had taken care of her all afternoon, combined with the battle with the Crimson Demons during the day, the cherry blossom-haired girl was completely exhausted.

Her head tilted slightly, resting against the tree trunk, her eyes slightly closed.

Her delicate, pink eyelashes, as thin as cicada wings, seemed to be frosted under the moonlight, exceptionally moving.

The girl’s breathing was steady.

Even though she was exhausted and had fallen asleep, she still held the little fox protectively in her arms.

She truly had no ill intentions toward her, even though Julianna had always maintained a sliver of awareness and caution.

When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits.

Julianna raised her head gracefully, standing up.

It could only be said that this Saintess was still too naive, with a bit of cunning but not enough.

It was understandable; a young, innocent girl seeing something cute would inevitably lower her guard and become less vigilant.

Looking at the cherry blossom-haired girl who had no guard against her, sleeping peacefully before her, Julianna looked at her like a prey that had already fallen into the net, unable to struggle, and revealed an excited, joyful smile.

She gently leaped off the girl’s soft lap.

Under the moonlight, a white shadow flashed, and several large, broom-like tails gradually expanded, enveloping the little fox.

A blinding white light suddenly burst forth.

“……”

Vanessa slightly frowned, as if feeling some discomfort, and with great effort, she opened her heavy eyelids, looking at the scene before her.

Her tired eyes revealed a trace of disbelief.

“……Baby?” Vanessa could only barely make out Julianna’s figure from the white light, murmuring in shock and confusion.

Before she could say more, a figure took shape within the white light.

A pair of large, fluffy white fox ears stood erect, and several large, broom-like tails with intricate patterns floated behind her.

Before Vanessa could react, a pair of long, white-stockinged legs extended from the light.

The perfectly shaped, beautiful arches of her feet slightly curved, the toes adorned with red bow-adorned wooden clogs, less than an inch from her nose.

A cold, rose-like fragrance, full of an aggressive scent, invaded Vanessa’s nostrils.

It was unclear whether it was the scent of the fox-eared girl’s body or her hair.

Vanessa was dumbfounded, staring blankly at the snow-white hair cascading down like a snow lotus, tied up with a golden jade hairpin.

The enormous fox tail lifted the stunningly beautiful white fox girl, whose smile could enchant hundreds.

The white fox girl’s snow-white sideburns were adorned with exquisite red flowers, and the bell tied to her fox ears jingled crisply as her ears twitched.

The moonlight fell on her frosty white skin and hair, but only those captivating crimson eyes emitted a deadly, soul-stealing charm.

Like a piece of arsenic wrapped in honey, though fatal, it made people unable to resist throwing themselves into the trap.

“Already awake?” The seductive voice, with its natural charm, made one’s bones soften and heart melt just by hearing it.

The white fox girl sat on her large tail, one leg crossed, one hand supporting her cheek, her lips curling into a regretful, charming smile.

“Originally, I thought I’d at least let you have a good night’s sleep tonight. It seems that’s not possible now.”

“…..Who are you?” Vanessa felt a dangerous aura from the white fox girl and instinctively reached for the silver-bound hammer beside her, but a fluffy tail suddenly swept it away.

“Saintess, thank you for saving my life today and for taking such good care of me~” Julianna placed one hand on her chest, slightly bowing.

Just this simple action caused the white fox girl’s ample chest to heave, her voluptuous figure accentuated by the short-sleeved, hemless palace robe she wore.

The bell on her fox ears jingled, and the back of her robe was tied with a purple bow.

Her snow-white thighs, smooth and tender under the moonlight, were covered by white stockings tied with red ribbons, reaching up to her thighs.

“To express my gratitude, please come to my home for a visit.”

The white fox girl smiled, admiring Vanessa’s shocked and bewildered expression below.

Her delicate fingers gently adjusted the stocking at her thigh, the silk and skin gradually separating, sliding down to her flawless ankle, and she lightly removed it.

The red rope bell at her ankle jingled pleasantly.

As the white stockings were removed, her jade-like toes, painted with a red polish similar to her eye color, resembled priceless rubies or exquisite, delicious apple candies.

The silver moonlight climbed up the snow-white, jade-like arch of her foot.

The white fox girl used the gap between her big toe and second toe to hold a dark brown pill, extending it to Vanessa’s lips.

She propped her cheek with one hand, her beautiful face adorned with a charming, captivating smile.

“However~ To ensure that our future master-servant relationship is pure and free of any betrayal or divided loyalties, you must take this pill in front of me.”
