nAnsel let go of the hand that was actually no longer choking Seraphina’s throat, gently placing it on her hand that was still touching his face.

nThe youthful Hydral closed his eyes and sighed:

n“You have won.”

nHe opened his eyes, the warmth in his gaze and the smile on his face were not his usual pretense.

n“You and fate have both triumphed, Seraphina.”

nAnsel, caressing the back of Seraphina’s hand, spoke in a voice no longer filled with confusion, “I cannot bring myself to harm the one who is unique to me.”

n“I cannot hurt you anymore, nor can I bear to see you continue to hurt yourself.”

nSeraphina’s smile seemed ready to soar to the heavens. She tried to keep her laughter from being too exaggerated, and coughed lightly.

n“Is that all there is to it?”

nAnsel paused slightly, then helplessly laughed and touched the young girl’s cheek, bending down to give her a light kiss on the lips.

n“I love you, Seraphina.”

n“!!!”

nSeraphina covered her face and squirmed, forgetting the intense pain in her waist and abdomen. If it weren’t for Ansel holding her down, she would probably be rolling around in joy.

n“Hehehe… this is enough, this is enough! Ansel, let’s go home! Let the revolutionary army deal with the giant snake, we’ll go back and discuss how to handle my ascension!”

nHaving obtained what she wanted, or rather, having obtained more than she wanted, Seraphina happily pressed her cheek against Ansel’s.

nHaving gained Ansel’s trust and affection, she had no regrets left.

nAs for the fight, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future, she wasn’t in a hurry.

n“No, Seraphina.”

nAnsel shook his head: “Since I have made my choice, there is no need to think of other methods.”

n“…Eh? So, should I get ascended directly?”

nSeraphina tilted her head.

n“Your current condition is not good, become my pact head first.”

n“Oh, that works too… huh?!”

nThe young girl widened her eyes: “What’s going on, how can it suddenly be possible?”

nAnsel smiled, he reached out and held the snake ring on Seraphina’s left index finger, lightly pinched it, and the ring turned into powder.

n“This —” Seraphina was stunned for two seconds, then she punched Ansel in annoyance, “Did you give me a fake?!”

n“The ring of the pact head is just a formality, the essence is from me… well, you’ll know in a bit.”

nThe half of the sentence that Flamelle said, Ansel could complete it himself.

nIf the problem is not with the pact head, then who else could it be?

nBut at that time, he was unwilling to admit it, still wishfully thinking that his feelings were the catalyst of fate.

nNow it seems that the problem that Seraphina couldn’t become his pact head, is really simple.

nThe pact head is almost equivalent to a part of Hydral, and to become a part of the body, of course, there is only one requirement.

nThat is purity.

nEither subdue or even enslave it with an absolutely domineering attitude, or establish an indistinguishable, deep relationship with the other party, as long as it is pure enough, there will be no problem.

nAnd Ansel could neither bring himself to completely enslave Seraphina, nor did he deny his feelings for Seraphina, in such a dilemma… if he couldn’t even recognize his own heart, how could he turn Seraphina into his pact head?

n“This time, there will be no problems.”

nAnsel said so, extending his right hand, forcefully piercing his chest, and without hesitation, he cut a large hole.

nSeraphina was startled, and quickly pressed Ansel’s hand in panic: “Ansel, what are you doing, I’m not mad at you, don’t do this… eh? What is this —”

nIn the chest that Ansel had cut open with his own hands, Seraphina saw a pure black heart. freёwebnovel.com

nThe heart is not the key, the key is… this heart, embedded with a full eight rings!

n“An, Ansel.”

nSeraphina stuttered as she looked at the steady beating heart and the rings deeply embedded in it: “This, this is —”

n“This is the symbol of the pact head.”

nHydral, who exposed his heart to the cold wind, smiled: “It is also the oldest covenant ceremony. Let the pact head, personally take the ring of the pact head she wants to become from the beating heart of Hydral.”

n“From now on, my heartbeat will be at your fingertips.”

nSeraphina didn’t know how Ansel’s heartbeat was, she only felt that her own heart was about to explode.

nShe, who never understood what romance was, now just wanted to faint in Ansel’s arms.

nThe young girl took a deep breath, tried to steady her hand, and extended her slender fingers into Ansel’s chest.

nShe immediately saw the most ferocious snake head ring, unlike before, Seraphina could feel that this ring was calling her, looking forward to connecting with her.

nWatching Seraphina carefully remove the ring symbolizing the head of strength from the heart, Ansel couldn’t help but laugh: “There’s no need to be so careful, I’m not that fragile —”

n“Ansel.”

nSeraphina, who had already taken off one ring, was still staring straight at Ansel’s heart.

nShe suddenly raised her head, her eyes blazing as she said:

n“Can a person only become one pact head?”

nAnsel was stunned.

nWithout waiting for Ansel to answer, Seraphina suddenly took off another ring, then without saying a word, she directly put the two rings on her index and middle fingers.

n“Seraphina!”

nAnsel grabbed Seraphina’s hand: “What are you doing! Even I don’t know —”

n“What are you talking about, Ansel.”

nThe moment she put on the two rings, Seraphina instantly felt two indescribable, seemingly limitless terrifying powers begin to surge in her body, raging, almost about to burst her body!

nThe lower half of her body, which had been crushed into meat, began to regenerate at a scalp-numbing speed, and it was getting faster and faster. At the same time, Seraphina’s entire skeleton seemed to start growing, her already not short height began to grow taller and taller, but still maintained a slender curve.

nThe girl’s face twisted uncontrollably with pain, but she still tried to smile, speaking in a hoarse voice:

n“Ansel likes me, and I like Ansel… I don’t understand what love is, but…”

n“I don’t want Ansel to pay the price alone, I don’t want… Ansel to lose to fate!”

n“The one who wins —”

nShe passionately kissed Ansel’s lips and laughed out loud:

n“Just me is enough!”

nAnsel was silent, only holding Seraphina’s hand tightly.

nThe girl’s body had already been reshaped, but that huge power was still unable to be vented, it was constantly transforming Seraphina’s body. At the same time, another equally powerful force seemed to be changing Seraphina’s senses, as well as that almost perverse intuition.

nThe pain of this transformation made Seraphina involuntarily curl up, screaming out loud, her bones breaking and reassembling, her muscles tearing and reorganizing. In Seraphina’s perception, the whole world was spinning, her mind was constantly exploding with pure pain, but the clarity in her heart did not waver at all, on the contrary… it was burning intensely!

nDevour, devour, devour!

nThe beast in her soul roared excitedly, just like Seraphina’s mood at the moment, every bit of pain was proof of her becoming stronger, every bit of torment was nourishment for her growth, she would devour everything, devour all of this, towards that endless peak —

nWhen she ignited such a belief, Seraphina felt what Ansel said… the transformation of the soul from the inside out, sublimation.

nShe felt her consciousness sink into the deepest part of her thoughts in pain, sinking, sinking, and sinking again.

nIn the end, she arrived in an endless white space.

n“This is our first encounter, isn’t it?” A voice, haughty and aloof, echoed behind Seraphina. The girl turned around, only to be met with… another version of herself. –>
