Isa in Need of Comfort

The sound of the explosion in the distance did not affect Su Ran’s entry into the Witch Game.

As the saying goes, he couldn’t run from major events, and there was no need to run from minor ones.

In his current state, lying on the bed, even if he wanted to run, he lacked the strength.

These past few days, Su Ran had continued to work as a play-along for Qiu Feifei.

In addition, another batch of power-leveling orders had been settled, and he had just managed to save up another sum of money.

Su Ran believed that since he had to investigate and resolve the cause of the beast tide, combat would be unavoidable.

Thus, another ten thousand yuan was transferred from his bank card and deposited into the Witch Game.

Entering the game, Su Ran directly possessed the power of a Sequence Six through the top-up.

He quickly found Isa, who was in meditation, in the house.

Through her character status, he could see that the originally gaseous magic essence in her body had gradually turned into the shape of a small vortex, attracting nearby magic essence.

Even when not in a meditative state, the amount of magic essence on Isa was constantly increasing.

And in the house, there was an additional green marker.

Clicking on it, he could see the status corresponding to the marker.

[Philly, Sequence Four Rosebud]

‘The rescued witch is called Philly?’

This status had not appeared before, but had only been loaded this time upon entering the Witch Game.

Therefore, Su Ran suspected that this status required the other party to regain consciousness or for other conditions to be met before it could be viewed.

Su Ran did not hide his aura.

The moment he appeared in the house, both Isa and Philly had already sensed his presence.

Isa, who was in meditation, directly interrupted her meditative state.

Without even having time to put on a shawl over her nightgown, she quickly walked down from the second floor in her slippers.

“Your Highness Su Ran!”

Seeing the familiar figure flickering with purple light, she didn’t even think and directly threw herself onto Her Highness Su Ran, greedily breathing in the fragrance emanating from Her Witch Highness, feeling her soft and warm body.

‘It’s been a few days since I’ve seen Her Witch Highness. As expected, chatting through paper slips is nowhere near as good as the experience of holding Her Witch Highness and talking.’

With this thought in mind, Isa was almost intoxicated in Su Ran’s embrace.

She even rubbed her head against the rise and fall of Her Highness Su Ran’s chest, feeling her smooth and elastic skin.

He didn’t know if it was his imagination, but ever since he had swallowed the fourth potion, his perception of everything around him had become more acute.

This time, when Isa threw herself into his arms, Su Ran felt that the stimulation from Isa’s delicate body seemed to be more obvious.

‘Perhaps the simulated body has become more realistic.’

Su Ran didn’t think too much about the reason for this small change.

“Um, Your Highness, I’ve entered Sequence Two!”

Isa raised her snow-white, lotus-root-like arm, on which a layer of magic essence protection glowed.

Even though Isa had already mentioned this in their paper slip exchange, she still wanted to tell Her Highness Su Ran in person.

“But unfortunately, my witch abilities haven’t changed much.”

Speaking of her witch abilities, Isa quickly lowered her head again, seemingly worried that this would disappoint Her Highness Su Ran.

Observing the magic essence protection propped up on Isa’s arm, Su Ran had never seen magic essence protection from such a close distance before.

With the opportunity, of course he had to observe it carefully.

When he got and drank the last potion, he would officially become a superhuman, so naturally he had to learn from Isa first.

Isa would have never imagined that the Her Highness Su Ran she revered was actually still an ordinary person who had not entered a Sequence!

She wasn’t even close to being a witch.

Seeing Her Highness Su Ran not speaking, Isa lowered her head even further, thinking that Her Highness was still disappointed in her.

“The changes in witch abilities don’t happen overnight. We need to constantly use them and deepen our understanding of them for real changes to occur.”

Philly, with her hair in a large braid and wearing a light green long dress, slowly walked down from the second floor.

Perhaps because her newly awakened body was still a bit weak, it took her a long time to come down the stairs, much slower than Isa.

Although the Holy Stone factor had been drawn out of her body, the effects it brought still lingered.

Her slightly pale lips and the weakness her body couldn’t hide all indicated that her body, damaged by the Holy Stone, still needed some time to return to normal.

But even though Philly was in this weak state, she still insisted on walking downstairs and coming before Su Ran.

Moreover, Philly refused Isa’s kind offer to help support her.

She placed her right hand on her chest and bowed slightly.

“Philly of the Witch’s Society thanks Your Highness Su Ran for your help, saving me from the Church’s judgment.”

Looking at Philly suddenly bowing to him, Su Ran extended his hand and made a virtual supporting gesture.

A gentle stream of magic essence flowed into Philly’s body, making her body, which would have originally needed time to recuperate, much better in an instant.

Although it couldn’t be restored to complete normality, compared to her previous weak state, Philly could now possess eighty percent of her original combat power.

“We are all comrades, it’s impossible to see you in mortal danger and not help. Besides, I’ve already said that Her Highness Su Ran is very kind.”

As Isa spoke, she hugged Her Highness Su Ran’s arm, her dark, glistening eyes fixed on Her Highness’s side profile, completely engrossed and unwilling to leave easily.

Su Ran didn’t think much of it.

When Philly appeared, an option had appeared in the Witch Game.

[Teammate Philly’s magic essence circuit has been invaded by the power of the Holy Stone. Do you wish to top up 98 yuan to treat Philly?]

After all, there were still missions to complete.

Since she was a teammate, in order to increase their side’s combat power, Su Ran still chose to pay the 98 yuan.

However, from Philly’s current state, it seemed that the system’s help did not reach the same level as Isa’s, but being able to recover her combat power was already very good.

After treating Philly, Su Ran’s arm tightened.

He then noticed a hint of loneliness hidden in the corner of Isa’s eyes, who was hugging his arm.

In Isa’s view, she had hidden this bit of loneliness very well, so much so that even Philly wouldn’t notice.

But she had forgotten that Su Ran had been with her for such a long time.

His understanding of Isa surpassed everyone else’s, and he had noticed Isa’s emotions at once.

“Don’t worry about the problem with your witch abilities. Just as Philly said, you can take it slow. The important thing is to protect yourself.”

Su Ran turned around and wrapped Isa in his arms, letting her ear rest against his chest.

Although he didn’t know if this body of his had a heartbeat, the warm embrace undoubtedly made Isa feel at ease.

Isa’s original anxiety and unease instantly vanished as she threw herself into the warm embrace, quietly enjoying the moment of peace brought by Her Highness Su Ran.

Philly was also tactful.

Seeing this, she did not linger in the hall, but bowed to Su Ran and quietly returned to the second floor.

She left the hall on the first floor to the two of them.
