Chapter 175: Fountain of Light

Shadow.Q could tell that Rita was "teasing" Nivalis, but she didn't pry into the details. Instead, she casually commented on the new markings on Rita's forehead. "Did Nivalis draw that for you again? The design looks different this time. Is it still a guaranteed critical hit on the seventh strike?"

Rita glanced at the mischievous Nivalis. "I'm not sure."

Rick, who had been quietly listening nearby, asked, "Is she going to help us today?"

Zoey also looked at Rita with anticipation.

Rita turned to Nivalis, and Nivalis played along, dramatically turning her head away, saying, "I'll only help *you*—no one else~~" With that, she flew off, leaving the rest of the group behind.
