"Flora Sheffield, warning: This love is not the love you imagine; it is merely an extreme physical desire."
"Grace Sheffield, this Demon Fan should be destroyed!"
After reading the evaluation, Altair couldn't help but think, "Demon Fan of Afflictions, it truly lives up to its name."
"The Sealed Artifacts in the family aren't anything good either. Those with minor side effects have been taken out for use, leaving behind only those with major ones."
As for the Potion Formula side, Altair simply chose to give up, as she never lacked Potion Formulas.
In this world, besides Adam, who possesses the Blasphemy Slate, there might not truly be anyone with more formulas than her.
"The greatest gain from this trip is just the family treasury records and the two 'old fogies' who are still alive."
.

"But since they've both become demigods, why didn't they choose to stay at home and let the family snowball?"
After finishing these thoughts, Altair began walking around the treasury. Like a precious cat, she moved with slow, elegant steps, nonchalantly patrolling this territory that belonged solely to her.
Not long after, the treasury repair team signaled to Bishop Electra, "The restoration work is complete. We may leave."
Upon receiving the signal, Bishop Electra walked over slowly and said to her, "Countess Altair, the restoration work on your family's treasury has been completed."
"Our work for this trip is finished, so we shall take our leave. In seven days, Archbishop Anthony will be lecturing on the Bible at Saint Samuel Cathedral. We welcome you to attend the lesson."
After saying this, Bishop Electra drew a crimson moon symbol on his chest in four clockwise strokes, blessing Altair, "May the Goddess protect you."
Upon receiving the blessing, Altair immediately drew a crimson moon on her chest in return.
After Hahn saw everyone out, Vivian, who had been standing to the side, walked over and picked up the item list to examine it.
As she looked, she whispered, "Darling, your family's stock of Beyonder items is truly vast—all sorts of Sealed Artifacts and Beyonder characteristics from different Pathways."
"Is this not your home too?" Altair asked back with a smile.
"Of course," Vivian nodded casually and replied offhandedly.
After finishing the item list, Vivian pointed at a description and said in a sweet voice, "Darling, I want this. Can you get it for me?"
Hearing this, Altair looked down at the item she was pointing to.
"Paradise Lost."
"Appearance Description: A classic square crystal perfume bottle. The bottle is engraved with complex, overlapping patterns of roses and thorns. Looking closely, these patterns form tiny human faces, either in ecstasy or in pain."
"The perfume inside is a strange liquid that constantly shifts between pale gold and dark rose red."
.
"Ability 1: Heartstring Resonance. After the user sprays the 'Paradise Lost' liquid in a closed space, its scent becomes an ultimate pheromone amplifier. It makes the user's words, gaze, and posture possess an irresistible 'psychological suggestion and persuasiveness,' as if directly plucking the other person's heartstrings."
"Ability 2: Greenhouse of Desire. After the user sprays it in a closed space, they can make all designated living beings in the area erupt with the same latent desire, such as: suspicion, lust, greed, or the urge to confide. The duration of the desire is determined by the amount of perfume used."
"Side Effect 1: Mirror of Desire. Long-term use of Paradise Lost will slowly mirror and solidify the user's core desire. This desire will continuously amplify and sharpen, becoming difficult to conceal or satisfy."
"Side Effect 2: Addictive Lust. The user will become addicted after just one use."
"Source: Obtained from hunting a Desire Apostle on June 1, 1023."
"Currently stored in: Cargo Shelf No. 6, third row, second empty slot on the left."
"Usage records: Deposited by Sheffield in 1023, ————"
"Jonas Sheffield, note: This Sealed Artifact has been tested. A sequence six Dawn Paladin, using the maximum amount, only managed to use it three times before forming an addictive psychology. sequence five ————. Do not touch without strength above sequence six."
After Altair finished reading the description, she said seriously to Vivian, "What do you want this thing for? With your strength as a sequence five Demoness of Afflictions, you can only use it at most five times."
"This piece of trash—besides the ancestor who recovered it and did the testing, look again, has anyone else ever used it?"
"Oh, darling, please, just give it to me. I promise to use it at most three times." As Vivian spoke, she held up three fingers, making a promise and acting spoiled toward the serious-faced Altair.
Because of this Sealed Artifact, Vivian persisted in acting spoiled and cute toward Altair for over half an hour.
But until the very end, Altair did not get it for her.
After organizing the treasury records, Altair left with Vivian, leaving only Hahn and the others to handle the storage and arrangement.
At night, after Altair fell asleep, Vivian quietly got out of bed, slowly left the master bedroom, walked to the first floor of the villa, and entered Butler Hahn's study.
After taking the square crystal bottle handed over by Hahn, Vivian placed it under the desk lamp, curiously sized it up, and asked, "Are you sure you didn't get the wrong one?"
"I am sure I did not get the wrong one," Hahn replied expressionlessly, looking at the person before him.
——————————————
He then added, "The Clan Ancestor orders you to complete the psychological treatment plan for Young Master Lucius as soon as possible."
"Make him remember his true gender."
Vivian nodded directly upon hearing this and explained, "I admit this was a miscalculation on my part. I will handle it as soon as possible."
"What about Altair's bloodthirsty psychology? This kind of psychological state is not easy to treat."
"I'm wondering if this might be due to that 'Rose Ring.' That ring still retains side effects we don't know about."
"The bloodthirsty behavior is not your concern for now; someone will be assigned to handle it," Hahn explained calmly to Vivian.
After finishing, Hahn asked, "The Clan Ancestors know the family owes you this time, so they asked me to inquire what compensation you might need."
"No need," Vivian thought for a moment and then declined.
