Water Mage in the Flame Realm-Chapter 336 - 324: The Demoness’s Little Cutie

"How did you get through it?"

Faced with Andrew’s question, Catherine actually thought seriously for a moment, then shook her head and shrugged: "I can’t remember. The memories of those two periods are completely blurry."

Because she was completely bare-chested, a simple shrug caused certain other things to undulate up and down twice.

From Andrew’s angle, he could see it clearly, but Andrew was completely unmoved.

Because what Catherine was saying was: two pieces of memory.

Getting one Strange Fire requires enduring a torturous ordeal.

Two Strange Fires mean going through it twice.

In other words, what Chairman Beiru painstakingly wants to obtain from Catherine, the ultimate secret to her possessing two Strange Fires, actually lies in "enduring pain"?

And after experiencing such a possibly unimaginable high-risk pain for an outsider once, Catherine actually chose to... go through it a second time?!

"Why?"

Andrew continued working with the "Water Priestess Series" for treatment and asked softly, "Why did you... do all these things?

You personally killed your sister, your husband, and seemed to treat your own life with some carelessness — you know, the Blood Refining Plan at five times the dosage, and twice at that, it’s a miracle you survived, isn’t it?"

"Of course I know that!"

Catherine said, revealing a rare hint of helplessness and annoyance, "But what can I do? The Magic Guild developed a new version of the Dragon Transformation Combat Technique based on the Blood Refining Plan, which can safely acquire the Fire of Extinguishing, but that’s only useful for a Flame Warrior, not for me, a Crimson Knight.

For me, only the Blood Refining Plan — the plan that works for all Warriors — is useful. The earlier stages can be withstood and survived."

Andrew’s heart moved: "So that new version of the Dragon Transformation Combat Technique still originates from the Blood Refining Plan?"

"Of course!" Catherine sneered, "You wouldn’t really think that the people of the Magic Guild would truly abandon that plan, would you? Even my father coveted that plan!"

Andrew said nothing more, silently digesting the information revealed by Catherine’s words.

Many previously misunderstood matters became much clearer.

It turns out everything still stems from that Blood Refining Plan!

The Magic Guild didn’t truly abandon that project but rather developed the new version of the Dragon Transformation Combat Technique based on it.

Chairman Beiru stole that plan and developed the Dragon Awakening Potion, but it wasn’t successful.

Catherine, however, mixed the Blood Refining Plan and the Dragon Awakening Potion, doubling the dosage, making her the first Warrior in history in the Flame Realm to possess two Strange Fires simultaneously!

Andrew thought for a moment and asked again: "What exactly was the original Blood Refining Plan? And does it have a connection to the existence behind the Magic Guild? What kind of existence is that, or rather... what kind of dragon is it?"

Since the new version of the Dragon Transformation Combat Technique originates from the Blood Refining Plan.

And the new version of the Dragon Transformation Combat Technique allows someone like Capella, a Flame Warrior, to acquire the Fire of Extinguishing and summon that terrifying dragon shadow.

Then it’s easy to think: the original Blood Refining Plan most likely has a very close connection with that dragon shadow!

"You this doctor, you really have quite a lot of questions." Catherine looked at Andrew, with an interest seemingly wanting to get to know Andrew anew, "Aren’t you worried about your own little life? You even have the mind to gather intelligence here?"

Yes, indeed it was gathering intelligence.

This was because previously in the Royal Court, after a battle with Capella, Andrew had a strong feeling: the existence represented by that dragon shadow behind the Magic Guild might just be the root of the problem with why the Flame Realm is the way it is!

Of course, Andrew would never admit this aloud, simply saying casually, "Just asking casually, if you’re not willing to say, or if you don’t know, then forget it."

While speaking, another "Water Sacrificial Magic" landed on Catherine’s severed arm wound, not only was Andrew using Water Magic to treat Catherine, but he was also using his own Water Magic to probe the Formless Blade Fire within Catherine, trying to create an effect similar to Water and Fire United to further enhance the treatment effect!

"Do you have a ’Snickers’ on you?" Andrew asked.

Catherine directly flipped her hand to take one out. Back when she was severely injured at the Shield of Flowing Fire by Chairman Beiru’s giant flame hand, her injuries were never fully healed until she ate a Snickers made by Andrew, slowly recovering, so she always had Snickers on hand since then.

Andrew reached out to take it, casually crushing it, kneading it into a pale blue magical stream, and directed it towards Catherine’s mouth.

"Open your mouth." At that moment, Andrew truly seemed like he was treating an ordinary patient, "Oh right, remember to suppress your Fire of Extinguishing before eating."

When developing the Snickers initially, to prevent the Magic Guild from using them, Andrew specially made a little trick: the Professionals of the Warm Fire Commerce Association would taste something delicious when eating a Snickers. The Professionals of the Magic Guild would taste a stench when consuming it. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Catherine was still a Crimson Knight, not a Flame Warrior, but she nevertheless had the Fire of Extinguishing.

It was seen that Catherine’s expression moved, seeming to recall some unpleasant memories, then obediently complied and temporarily suppressed the Fire of Extinguishing before opening her mouth to swallow the magical stream transformed from the Snickers.

"Alright, there’s nothing else." Andrew wiped the sweat off his forehead, pulled up Catherine’s clothes, and calmly said, "The injury has stabilized. You should be able to feel it, right? Your severed arm is regenerating, but for it to fully regrow will take a considerable amount of time."

Catherine stood up, silently feeling her body’s condition, and a look of amazement gradually emerged on her face.

When she looked at Andrew again, her eyes even had a noticeable hint of appreciation and admiration.

"Truly worthy of being the Water God’s heir!" Catherine looked at Andrew with a smile, "How did such a difficult thing as making a severed arm regenerate become seemingly naturally simple for you? Thank you! Now I kind of understand why my sister likes you. Alas, it’s a pity, it truly is a bit of a pity..."

She spoke while sighing, appearing genuinely regretful, truly from the heart.

A biting cold wind blew through the mountains, the wind still bitterly cold, and now unmistakably carried a previously absent intense murderous aura!

Andrew, as the Water Magic Lord, was the most sensitive, how could he not feel this change?

He was taken aback: "You... are going to kill me now?"

Catherine closed her eyes for a moment and when she reopened them, there was no trace of regret on her face, only coldness: "Yes."

This scene truly looked like a demoness capturing a cute little creature, the cute creature fighting to survive, enduring grievances, even taking the initiative to treat the demoness, only for the demoness, once healed, to want to kill the cute creature — all the cute creature’s efforts in vain!

Strangely, after hearing Catherine’s affirmative answer, Andrew did not show much fear.
