    Gilda hastily replied, “He’s busy making pills. I didn’t want to disturb him, so we just had a brief


    conversation before I left him to do his work.” She then immediately entered the house.


    Wuhlricht walked out of the door and muttered to himself, “What is going on with Severin? He’s


    completely clueless! My daughter is very beautiful, and she even took the initiative to drop by and see


    him. Isn’t that a very good opportunity for them to grow closer? He’s been crafting pills for days on end


    now. It wouldn’t hurt to take half a day off to spend time with my daughter, right?

    Wuhiricht’s thoughts then took a different turn as he suddenly realized, “Is it possible that Severin


    doesn’t like Gilda? That doesn’t make any sense though Why did he promise me that he’d take good


    care of her if he didn’t like her? Does he feel a sense of obligation simply out of guilt?”


    After contemting for a while, Wahlricht decided to confront Severin about it. He arrived at Severin’s


    residence just as Severin was back in his yard.


    “Uncle–master! What brings you here?” Severin asked, feeling slightly anxious that Wuhlricht had


    arrived just moments after Gilda left. Wuhlricht could not havee over that quickly unless Gilda had


    told him something.


    “Let’s talk inside,” Wuhlricht said, wearing a serious expression.


    Once they were behind closed doors, Wuhlricht got straight to the point. “I have a question for you,


    Severin


    “Please ask away,” Severin replied.


    “I want to know if your promise about taking good care of my daughter is genuine. She’s no longer


    engaged, so I’m genuinely hoping that you two will end up together.”


    Wuhlricht continued, “I’m not trying to put pressure on you though, so let’s get that straight. You only


    agreed to help her because I begged you to and put you in a tight spot. I want you to be with her out of


    genuine love and concern, not just because you regret what happened. You understand what I mean,


    don’t you? You must show genuine concern for her before you can attempt to win her heart.”


    Severin was a little startled initially. He wondered if Gilda had already told Wuhlricht about Severin’s


    confession so quickly. He looked at Wuhlricht and replied earnestly, “You have nothing to worry about.


    I’ve given this a lot of thought, and while I did. feel a sense of responsibility toward her, I’vee to


    realize that she’s a very good woman as I’m getting to know her better. Gilda deserves to be loved.


    She’s strong in her convictions about love and justice, and she’s filial and sensible too. If she returns


    my feelings, I’ll cherish her out of gemine love for her.”


    Wuhlricht was content with Severin’s response. “I’m happy to hear that. Since you have genuine


    feelings for her, you should take the initiative to spend more time with her when you have the chance.


    Go for walks with her. Don’t spend all your time making pills. You’ve already crafted a lot of pills for the


    sect, and we’re no longer in as short supply as we were before.”


    Severin smiled and said, “I’ll do my best. I can see that she’sfortable around me, so I’m confident


    that I’ll stand a good chance as long as I put in the effort.”


    “That’s reassuring.” Wuhlricht said, reaching for the door. “I’d have nothing to worry about anymore if


    you two are together. I think you’re far better than Frederick anyway. Hepletely burned bridges


    with her, disregarded their prior rtionship, and ruined my daughter’s reputation. That was already


    bad enough, and he made things worse when he allowed people within the sect to spread nderous


    rumors about her. If our sect had been as strong as theirs, I would have already confronted him and


    taken him to task.”
