Chapter 33 - Luke's Problem!

Chapter 33 - Luke's Problem!

"Do you always treat others like this?" Sylvia blushed, arranging her somewhat messy clothes while glaring at Luke angrily.

"What do you mean?" Luke looked at Sylvia with interest.

"Um... it's just suddenly, meeting a girl for the first time and then kissing... kissing her or something like that..." Obviously, Sylvia hasn't been able to recover from the enchanting atmosphere just now.

"Of course not, I've only done this to you~" Luke looked proud. This was the first kiss of the world's number one singer. It could be said to be a dream for many men in this world.

Although she knew that Luke was just trying to coax her, Sylvia's heart still couldn't help but skip a beat.

"And besides, didn't you say it yourself? You're my fan." Facing Luke's words this time, Sylvia rolled her eyes at him.

"You can't do whatever you want to your fans! Thanks to you, I'm somewhat disillusioned with the term 'idol.'" Speaking up to this point, Sylvia furrowed her brow.

She forcibly suppressed the turmoil in her heart, trying hard to present herself very seriously, and then spoke, solemnly saying to Luke, "Don't you truly realize that there's something off about yourself?"

Upon hearing Sylvia's questioning, Luke seemed a bit dazed.

Is there something wrong with him?

That's right, he is indeed acting strangely, and it has been going on for quite some time.

In the most straightforward terms, his current condition is actually the onset of inner demons.

Of course, it doesn't mean he has literal xinxia-style inner demons; it's just a metaphor.

The cause is actually because he has grown too quickly. In just two years, he has depleted the swordsmanship accumulated by the Fan Xinglu lineage for thousands of years.

It's not just since he arrived in this world; he has already shown signs even before the start of the official mission.

Rapid progress leading to a mismatch in mental/psychological state is a threshold that every genius has to go through, and Luke is certainly no exception.

However, it's not that severe for him at the moment, and ultimately, this issue can be blamed on Claudia.

If according to Luke's original plan, he would have secluded himself in Jielong Seventh Institute for a full three years, then directly participate in 'Lindwurm Festa.'

As long as he could complete the main mission and return to the main god space, all his current issues would be easily resolved.

Within the main god space, there are specialized facilities designed to address various problems that arise for agents due to overly rapid progress.

However, Claudia's appearance disrupted the calm and tranquil state of mind that Luke had managed to barely maintain.

Having no experience whatsoever in this area, not even having had a romantic relationship, Luke faces the 'enthusiastic reception' from such a beautiful girl.

To say that he didn't feel a bit light-headed inside would obviously be impossible, but this light-headedness is causing a problem.

When your heart is aflutter, having a stern demeanor is like a lollipop without sweetness.

The most noticeable manifestation is that Luke has lost a bit of composure and calmness, becoming somewhat proactive and aggressive. As time goes on, this situation is expected to become more and more serious.
