"Unlike you, Alfia probably only has a good impression of me at most."
Ronen shrugged and said, "It's too early to say all this; perhaps it won't even develop to the point of liking, you never know."
"Hmph, Alfia is my elder sister, so I think I know her better. What's more… sometimes only women can understand women."
Meteria smiled triumphantly and said, "It's always best to prepare early. Instead of being flustered by sudden situations and even making regrettable decisions, it's better to prepare yourself mentally early and build up your psychological resilience."
"Most people in this situation would try to keep me and your elder sister at a distance, wouldn't they?"
Ronen couldn't help but say, "Your way of thinking is completely different from ordinary people."
"Is that so?"
Meteria blinked, then shook her head and said, "I just want everyone to be happy, not to mention that emotions like liking and loving cannot be stopped."
"Just like Zeus and Hera."
Thinking of Hera and Zeus, Ronen couldn't help but fall silent.
Although Zeus was more of a playboy, calling it 'liking' and 'loving' felt like an insult to the words, but it was also true that he couldn't control his actions and emotions.
Zeus's heart was very free, and Hera tried desperately to stop him, even getting angry and doing many things that seemed excessive to ordinary people, yet she still couldn't tie down Zeus's heart.
Although Zeus was indeed excessive, it also proved that it is very difficult for a person to change themselves, let alone emotions that humans cannot control.
"I am not Zeus."
Ronen shook his head.
He hadn't reached the point of thinking with his lower body.
"I am not Hera either."
Meteria smiled, as if she had a mischievous idea, and leaned close to Ronen's ear, saying, "This is a win-win situation. I win once, elder sister wins once, and you win twice."
"I will do a good job of psychological preparation for elder sister. Then... let's play together~"
As she spoke, she gently held Ronen's earlobe, lightly biting it.
Her words made Ronen's heart melt, and his whole body seemed to be injected with new vitality, followed by Meteria's giggling.
"As expected, you're still not satisfied."
Meteria showed a mischievous smile.
Sure enough, Meteria had learned to be naughty, becoming more and more like a little devil.
"I was satisfied already."
Ronen shook his head helplessly and said, "You're getting naughtier and naughtier."
Having lit the fire but lacking the ability to extinguish it, Ronen could only lament that Meteria had learned to be naughty.
"I'm not that kind of person with a bad sense of humor, and how could I possibly do something that would make you uncomfortable?"
Meteria grumbled discontentedly.
After letting Ronen hold her hand, Meteria gently applied pressure and lightly landed beneath Ronen, saying, "Although you're very tired, you can hold my hand, so you won't be too exhausted."
Learning by analogy, you are truly a clever little imp.
Ronen looked at Meteria's blue eyes, her playful yet gentle appearance truly moved Ronen's heart.
Moving slightly, Meteria also showed a satisfied expression, then lay on Ronen's shoulder and fell asleep.
Feeling her breathing gradually become steady, Ronen slowed his movements.
After several hours of fighting, she was indeed exhausted.
"Alfia, huh…"
Looking at Meteria's sleeping face, Ronen whispered inwardly.
He and Alfia indeed got along well. Thinking about it carefully, he was also the first man to get so close to Alfia.
These sisters had one thing in common: they lived in a world isolated from men. Even in the battles and expeditions of the Familia Alliance, relationships were mostly comrades-in-arms, and they had no male friends in their daily lives.
Ronen was the first person to enter their lives.
Meteria was fine; she lived very openly and knew what she wanted.
Alfia was more tsundere, so few people could enter her heart.
Now that Meteria had brought it up, coupled with how harmonious they got along.
While anxious, Ronen was indeed inspired with an idea.
"Let nature take its course."
The most important thing now was for Alfia to survive the Black Dragon subjugation battle. If things truly unfolded as Meteria said, he might have to experience being widowed.
Because of Meteria's words, Ronen became even more concerned about Alfia's safety.
"Let's get some good rest first."
Ronen murmured, holding Meteria and closing his eyes.
Although his eyes were closed, his Mind was excellent due to Adjustment Magic.
For him, sleep had become a pure enjoyment.
With the advancement of Adjustment Magic, Ronen no longer needed sleep to recover and adjust his body and emotions.
"Speaking of which, Adjustment Magic has hit a bottleneck and needs a new direction for development."
Ronen remembered something and focused his attention on his internal body.
Adjustment Magic allowed Ronen's body to always be in its optimal state. Over time, his body's structure would also optimize itself, which was what was called evolution.
Coupled with Gravitational Magic, his body was constantly in a state of exercise, making it even more efficient.
It was fine for a short period, but over a longer time, Ronen also discovered a rather private issue.
That was, the way the body expelled waste was not very elegant.
Human waste refers to various waste products that are not expelled from the body but remain and accumulate within it during metabolism and life activities after a person consumes food, air, and water from the outside world.
Although Ronen's Adjustment Magic could effectively utilize body energy, thereby reducing human waste; and expel human waste through pores via Adjustment Magic, going to the toilet was still necessary.
It was fine in the past, but now he needed to use 'internal vision' to adjust his body, and all the body's various messiness was laid bare.
Although it wasn't unbearable, Ronen felt that he should put more thought into this area as well.
For example, cleaning the human body through magical means.
Thinking of this, Ronen delved into deep research on magic.
In just half a day, he completed a new magic—Absorption Magic!
The original idea was to absorb impurities and toxins from the human body through magic, and then expel them from the body through magic, rather than through pores, making it cleaner.
But during this process, Ronen discovered a characteristic of Absorption Magic.
That was, the absorbed impurities turned into 'magical phenomenon' and as long as the magical energy transport of Absorption Magic was canceled, they would directly disappear.
"Material energy conversion?"
Ronen thought of this term.
Although it sounded very high-end, it was actually commonplace.
Because matter and energy can inherently transform into each other, their relationship is inseparable.
Especially since magical energy can cause supernatural phenomena, this in itself is an extremely profound transformation.
Thinking about it carefully, this effect is actually close to the magical energy extraction method.
Converting body energy into Mind energy, thereby rapidly restoring magical energy; and then releasing magic through Mind—this is also a process of transformation.
"The development prospect of this magic is very good…"
Ronen pondered.
