Thanks for the chapter!
Anyone know what happened to Bass' hair? Manga doesn't say anything but does the LN mention it as punishment or something? It went from a few inches long to a severe crew cut. In any case he's relying too much on his position and arrogance as a noble to try to get his way rather than consider why he was outmatched by someone he considers inferior much less the meaning behind his father saying Lilith is employing them rather than them employing her. Guess between losing to Abel, her rejection, and restrained killing intent has finally cured him of his one sided crush but unfortunately turned it into emotional rage and desire for revenge without reflection or thought. Good that Ted is more open minded and mature, although he's way OP in his ability to shrug off matters and not notice important details. Like the fact that Lilith, who looks like she's in her early twenties, had saved and guided his father who was young enough to go hunting on his own without an escort or too busy to go from all the paperwork yet looks at least middle aged now.
Btw, as this is a manga intended for children the scenes of Ted spectacularly jumping off the roof, bouncing off a tree and landing at a bad angle on the stone resulting in blood erupting all over his body, multiple contusions, horrendous screams, etc. resulting in a full body cast for a month, even with Abel's healing techniques, and a liquid diet were left out as too horrific for young minds, and several mature ones. Especially the scene where Lilith, irritated at all the trouble Ted has been causing Abel, along with decreasing the amount of her alone time with Abel, picked him up and threw him a great distance into the trash heap before cleaning up all the blood and other substances from the stone. As a result Ted is now addicted to pain killers, uppers, and various other drugs. However, for some reason the usual side effects aren't showing and his stoned personality under the various drugs is indistinguishable from his usual personality.
