It would have been too much of a reckless gamble to take Zara away by force.

"Don't worry, sir. Zara's strength is no match for mine. My mentor once said that the Twinshade Body only activates after falling in love and being intimate with someone they love. If she comes to me, I can completely restrain her and hand her over to you," Felix said. However, Silas shook his head immediately.

"That won't work. There's something I haven't told you. Do you remember the time Zara saved your life?"

"Of course."

That poisoning incident was something Felix would never forget for the rest of his life.

"The stunning beauty you were with in your dream? That was the real Zara! Yes, her true appearance is just that flawless."

Felix was stunned, like a bolt of lightning had struck him. Could there really be such a perfect woman in this world, with a figure and looks beyond reproach?

"Now imagine this. If Zara regains her true appearance and stands before you, as a man- especially one who's already been with her in a dream-could you truly resist that kind of temptation?"

Felix couldn't answer. He was, after all, a normal man. If Silas wasn't lying, then a restored Zara would indeed be irresistible. To put it bluntly, she would be someone most men could only dream of, and saying no to her would be nearly impossible. The saying about being virtuous in the face of temptation always depended on who the temptation was.

"What do we do then? Karina only gave me a day. After that, I can't use the same trick to stop her again." Silas clenched his fists tightly, looking conflicted.

"I see Zara as my own granddaughter. I truly don't want anything bad to happen to her! It's not her fault that she has the Twinshade Body. Do you think she wanted this? But now that Silver Flute has shown up, I've thought of a possible solution!" Felix frowned deeply.

"You want to bet on that one-in-ten chance? I won't agree to it!"

Even Gerald had said that the Twinshade Body, when triggered, had a 90% chance of turning someone into a bloodthirsty maniac and only a 10% chance of remaining normal. With odds like that, who would dare take the risk? If chaos ensued, Felix would be partly to 1/2

blame.

"No! Zara still has some sanity left. I want you to tell her, against your better judgment, that there's a goal she must achieve before anything can change. It's not a permanent fix, but it might buy us some time. And you'll have to handle convincing Karina," Silas said. After some serious thought, Felix realized this idea might actually work.

"Alright, I'll give it a shot."

"Zara agreed, but she doesn't want me to be present. Felix, you must remember that if anything goes wrong-

"Don't worry, sir. If she tries to turn on me, I'll subdue her immediately. The gap in our abilities is significant; you should be well aware of that."

As he waited, Felix mentally prepared himself. But when Zara finally opened the door and walked in, he couldn't help feeling a bit nervous.

achievements "Zara! I never expected you to fall for me. However, you should know my and what kind of person I am. If you want to pursue me, you'll need to meet certain standards. Otherwise, you're just not qualified."

Before he could continue, Zara pulled out a few silver needles, swiftly inserting them into her face. With a gentle sweep of her hand, an absolutely stunning face appeared before him

"Now, am I qualified?" she asked.
