Chapter 236 (2): Little Devil’s Smile
“If you’re going to be so stubborn, I can only congratulate you on winning it all in advance.” Planck’s eyebrows jumped up, his expression mischievous. “What about the Ministry of Magic? Did they order you to become the Anointed One at all costs?”
“Miss Yvette did mention it,” Wayne admitted.
“So it’s Her Majesty’s order?”
“Who knows? The world is too complicated. All I want is magic...” Wayne lamented. Pure magic was too dull, though. It would taste better with some magical girls as additives. Having only magical girls would still be too boring, of course. Having magical big sisters and magical cougars for a richer flavor suited his greedy taste more.
Thus, after parting ways with Planck, he visited the magical cougar first.

While Wayne was whispering sweet nothings to Moonlight’s High Reverend at her residence, giving away four months’ worth of love and affection, Kristen and Vera were visiting Veronica at the Lando Estate, bearing gifts.
They both heard that Veronica had become a Holy Maiden candidate and would be out of town for three to four months. Thus, they organized a girls’ meeting without inviting Wayne.
Vera was the organizer, bringing Kristen with her.
While walking along the path to the estate, Vera cocked her head at Kristen with a strange look in her eyes. “Senior, you seem to have gotten even prettier lately, and your complexion looks better. Did I imagine it?”
“Really?” Kristen touched her face. Wayne hadn’t lied to her about facials being good for skin.
“Really. You must have gotten into a relationship,” Vera emphasized the last word. I know that you must know what I’m getting at, so stop hiding and let’s have an open conversation.
