Megan was staring suspiciously at Severin when the latter smiled and produced a tiny bottle with a wave of his palm. He handed it to her and said, "I returned to give you this. Do you remember my promise to give you a treasure that could change your attainment if I managed to find something like that? Well, here it is. There are two drops of liquid inside this little bottle. Fill a bathtub with water and put one drop in. Then soak yoursel in the bath. Do this twice, and your attainment talent should be sufficiently boosted to help you make a swift breakthrough to profound master."

"Thank you so much! I thought you'd forgotten all about it! I'm glad you came back and gave

gave this to n

to me!" Megan exclaimed in joy. The treasure meant the world to her because it was the key to whether or not she would be able to become a practitioner.

Severin then reassured her, saying, 'Benjamin is an alchemist, so you'll be able to train very efficiently in the future with the pills he makes. We're not sure if we'll have another chance to return, so please must take good care of everyone for me."

Megan nodded fervently. "I will."

Severin then said, "I'm going to make a reservation at a restaurant tonight. We'll celebrate your newfound path to attainment while letting Gilda experience a sumptuous feast."

"Okay!" Megan agreed with enthusiasm after some thought.

Severin then proceeded to introduce Gilda to the Shanahans and his parents. After spending a few days. in South County Mansion, Severin distributed some pills to the bodyguards so they could improve their attainment. Finally, he left with Gilda.

The couple visited nearby cities for a few days before heading back to the sect. Along the way back, Severin asked, "How do you think Sheila, Sofia, and Diane would feel if they knew you were my girlfriend?" Gilda was startled by the sudden question. "Are you planning to tell them already? Maybe we should take

things slowly. I'm not ready for that yet."

Severin chuckled and understood Gilda's hesitance, "Okay, I won't tell them just yet. I'll let you break the news to them once you're more comfortable with it."

Gilda smiled gratefully and said, "Thanks for your understanding."

Severin felt his heart flutter as he looked at Gilda. He eventually asked, "Can I kiss you?"

Gilda blushed in an instant and said awkwardly, "I'm not mentally prepared for a kiss yet. And besides, it's going to be embarrassing if someone sees us making out on the flying sword."

Severin approached her with a grin and pulled her into his embrace. "Don't worry. I've used my mental power to scan within a hundred-mile radius of this place, and you can rest assured that it's only the two of

us in that area. We can share a little kiss a private."

"B-b-but I'm not r-r-ready yet!" Gilda was red, and her heart was beating madly. Although they had grown much closer in the past few days and she had already begun to accept him completely, kissing was something very foreign to her. She and Frederick never went that far in their relationship despite being

together for a long time, while things were progressing a little too rapidly with Severin even though he had

only been with her for a few days.

In that split second that Gilda spaced out, Severin lowered his head and planted a kiss on her red lips.
