"Oh...! Are you saying that I used to live here, and you were a flower I once raised?" Bexia listened in disbelief as Novalis spoke. It was his first time entering this virtual world, so when did he plant a flower that grew into such a little floral fairy?
But as Bexia thought about his past, he realized that it wasn't impossible to accept. It made sense if it was the information from this account. Otherwise, he wouldn't have appeared here the moment he stepped out of the mansion.
"I thought that after being away for so long, the Master no longer wanted Little Flower," Novalis said. "But I finally got to see the Master come and visit Little Flower! I knew the Master wouldn't abandon me!" Novalis hugged Bexia's arm, her face filled with satisfaction. It was as if a simple touch on the head was all she needed after a long, patient wait.
This dependent feeling touched Bexia deeply, even stronger than Christine's reliance. He had a sense that if he were to deny being Novalis's Master, she would instantly transform into someone else. And really, was he not Novalis's Master?
Bexia asked himself inwardly. There were too many questions regarding this account, but he couldn't be bothered to deal with all these issues. After all, this was a virtual world, disconnected from reality. Having an extra little pet like this, Bexia actually quite liked it.
After all, Novalis, this little flower fairy, was incredibly cute. Whenever she acted cute, Bexia felt like he was melting. He couldn't resist wanting to pinch and touch her!
"Master, if you're going to leave, please take Little Flower with you. I no longer require soil. I can go with you, and I can take care of myself without causing any trouble to the Master!" Novalis looked up at Bexia with her big, innocent eyes, full of anticipation. In her deep gaze, a sense of fear gradually appeared as Bexia hesitated. She was afraid of being abandoned again and sitting alone in a high place, watching the distance. She didn't want to experience that lonely anticipation ever again.
"How can I refuse this?" Bexia roared internally. He suddenly scratched his head, thinking, why not? After all, this was a virtual world, and having an extra fairy pet wouldn't hurt.
"Mhm!" Bexia nodded and reached out to caress Novalis's head. The little one felt as if she had discovered a treasure, clinging onto Bexia's face with her palm, radiating a sense of fulfillment. It felt like a harmonious atmosphere between a little daughter receiving praise from her old father.
"Master, this is something Little Flower brewed with great effort!" Remembering something, Novalis magically produced a small bottle and delicately held a small jade cup in her other hand.
"The Master used to enjoy pouring wine for Little Flower, and now Little Flower can brew wine too! Master~!" Novalis poured a cup of fragrant, strong-scented liquid and looked at Bexia expectantly.
"I can't resist it anymore!" Bexia felt like he was about to collapse. Among all the little ones he had encountered, no one could compare with Novalis in terms of being cute. Compared to the other little ones, Novalis was intentionally trying to be cute to please Bexia. How could he resist?
"I'll just drink it!" Bexia sighed. Speaking honestly, she was actually quite happy. After all, it is common for adorable and beautiful things to be liked by people. If these lovely and beautiful things belonged to someone else, it would be enough to appreciate them with admiring eyes. Having emotions about it is normal as well.
But if these lovely and beautiful things belonged to oneself, then it would be another story – holding them in one's hands would be like holding a precious treasure.
Bexia picked up the wine glass and activated the "Chaotic Gaze" skill once again. This skill could actually be controlled, appearing whenever Bexia wanted to understand something.
"Flower Brew (Improved)
Quality: Divine
Effect: Permanently increases one level, while strengthening soul intensity (effective for levels up to LV80)
Note: A fine wine improved by the extraordinary floral fairy Noelle. It has magical effects and is a rare divine product."
It seemed quite powerful! However, Bexia was already level one hundred, so it seemed like the effect of this thing was useless to her. But it seemed to have a very good smell? Without much hesitation, Bexia poured it into her mouth. After all, this was just a virtual online world – was there anything to be afraid of? And Noelle didn't seem like the kind of little fairy who would use poison to harm her master.
"Mhm!" The moment the liquid entered her mouth, she could only feel a faint scent of alcohol, and a unique sweetness spread out. This taste wasn't coming from her taste buds, but from her soul. It felt as if her soul was drinking alcohol, with no physical barriers in between, instantly transmitting the taste into her soul. It was an incredibly wonderful feeling.
"Master! How does it taste?" Seeing that Bexia was not saying anything, Noelle had an expectant and nervous expression, which amused Bexia.
"It's exceptionally delicious! It's the most wonderful wine I've ever tasted!" Bexia praised her as she casually touched Noelle's small head. Looking at her happy expression, Bexia's mood couldn't help but become joyful. She casually asked, "How is this wine made?"
"It's made by using the first morning dew of the Moonflower, mixed with various fresh flowers, and then soaking in little flowery for some time..."
Bexia didn't have any problem with what she heard at the beginning, but what did the last sentence mean? Wasn't little flowery Noelle's self-proclaimed name in front of him? In other words, the final step of making this wine was to soak Noelle in it for some time... So, this wine was actually Noelle's bathwater?
Bexia's face changed, she glanced at the clear liquid in the cup, and a strange feeling arose from the depths of her heart – she had just drunk a little loli's bathwater... and she even found it delicious! How perverted!
"Why aren't you drinking anymore, Master?" Noelle tilted her small head, looking at Bexia with a strange expression.
"Well... I..." Bexia looked at Noelle's innocent big eyes, and she had a feeling that if she said she disliked it because it was bathwater, this little one would probably have a strong reaction. It felt like she was committing a crime just saying that.
Being honest, it's not that she disliked bathwater or anything, but it just felt like there was a mental block. After all, it gave him a feeling that he was being very perverted.
"It seems like Master doesn't like the wine brewed by little flowery?" Noelle's expression suddenly became pitiful, like an abandoned little puppy, making Bexia feel guilty.
"The wine made by little flowery is very delicious. I was just pondering about something!" Bexia tilted his head back and took another sip, feeling like something intangible but crucial was mixed in the liquid and he drank it down with the wine.
He knew that was his integrity!
