"Go to class during the day. Here, this is your fourth-year badge. Take it."
"Four...fourth grade?!" The robin was stunned.
……
……
"Tuesday's enchanting class seems to be a bit different from what I currently understand..."
Latis sat in the front row, looking at SilverShul so close to him, and silently pondered:
"There's been so much going on since I got back. I haven't even tried using the enchantment from Terry's World yet. I wonder if it will be successful..."
"In short, enchanting is one of the subjects that best reflects the differences in a mage's magical skill level..."
Illusory spell runes appeared in Teacher Yinxiu's hand, and then, with the help of the magic network, an ordinary "Fourth Ring Spell - Life Aura" instantly appeared in her hand.
"Most of us humans don't have innate magical abilities, so learning enchanting is especially important. Many battle mages have survived tough battles by overtaking others in this area."
Her hand suddenly clenched, and the range of the "light of life" suddenly more than doubled.
"My mastery of ranged enchanting is 81%. In a mage battle, even if your faction is stronger than mine, if my attack range is much longer than yours, my chances of winning are definitely greater."
Silver Hugh slowly opened his hand, restoring the range of the "Light of Life," and then clenched it again, instantly solidifying the emerald light like a gemstone.
"Within the attack range, if my mastery of powerful enchantments is far superior to yours, I will have an absolute advantage in the contest of spells."
She dispelled the spell, gently adjusted her beret, and asked with a smile:
"Does everyone understand?"
Chapter 140 The Sister with the Two-Piece Tongue
"Hey, add gas!"
"Hey, powerful enchantment!"
"Hey, fireball!"
"I countered your spell!"
"Aren't you my teammate?!"
……
Latis walked out of the classroom and looked at the boys who were playing a simulation game in a circle. Three black lines immediately appeared on his forehead.
"Damn it, a bunch of childish idiots..."
He shook his head, turned and left, silently thinking:
"I'm not that immature teenager anymore; I won't play those childish games anymore!"
……
"I'm so hungry..."
Silver Xiuer, who was hungry every day, packed her bag and walked out of the classroom of Intermediate Class 3.
"Hey, super fuel!"
"Hey, Chain Lightning!"
"Wait, isn't that a sixth-ring spell? We're just mid-level mages!"
"Oh, really?" Latis chuckled dryly and said, "I thought we were all legends..."
……
Latis was humiliated and kicked out of the gas-filling game circle. He wandered around the corridor for a while, cursing, when he suddenly saw Teacher Yin looking at him with a kind expression.
He remained silent for a long time, then turned and ran.
"Hey, don't run away!"
Latis ignored him and kept running.
"Little La!"
Latis, covered in sweat, fled in a sorry state.
Then, amidst a surge of energy from a secret technique, he crashed hard into Teacher Yin, who had teleported to his side.
"Woo!"
Silvershur's eyes widened, feeling as if his whole body was about to fall apart. He involuntarily fell backward, only to be caught by Latis with lightning speed around the waist.
“I…” Yin Xiu’er almost choked on her breath. She coughed a few times and said weakly:
"I have something to tell you..."
……
At the Stupid Cat Cafe at No. 60 Tianhai Street, Latis apologetically served Silver Shul a cappuccino as he coughed incessantly.
"I...it's been a long time since I've had such an expensive drink...thank you."
SilverShull lifted his cup, gently swirled the latte art on the surface of his coffee, took a small sip, and continued:
“Your little sister, Miss Robin, asked me last night to apply for an entrance exam for her, so I recommended her to Bogu Academy…”
"Huh?" Latis paused, scratched his head, and said:
"I didn't expect her to still choose to go to Bogu Academy... Wait, why didn't she tell me?"
“Well, that’s exactly what I wanted to talk to you about…” Silver Hugh nodded politely to the nun who had brought the cake, and continued:
"Little La, your younger sister seems to have a rather stubborn personality. I don't know how much you know about this, but she doesn't seem to want to grow up in an ivory tower under your protection. Perhaps you should consider..."
“But she’s still so young!” Latis said instinctively. “I don’t need her to do anything for me, do I?”
"Well... everyone has been a teenager once!"
SilverShuffle smiled understandingly, stood up, patted Latis on the head, and said softly:
"I know how much you care for your younger sister as her older brother, but you also need to recognize her capabilities, okay?"
She sat down, took a deep breath, and tightened the corners of her mouth that had been turned up in a smile as she said:
"I heard that she was promoted directly to the fourth year by the principal of Bogu Academy."
"...Fourth grade?"
Latis remained silent for a while, then suddenly remembered that he was only a third-year student. He couldn't help but mutter to himself, speechless:
"So now I have to call her 'senior'?!"
……
After Silver Shul left, Latis picked up a waffle from the table, took a bite with his coffee, and suddenly came to his senses, staring blankly at the thought:
"Wait a minute, didn't Kotori not have a magic level? Why is she already in fourth grade?"
"Fourth grade, fourth grade... It seems that the group that used the spell-casting grenade was from the fourth grade? No, I have to ask her what happened tonight..."
He shook his head. Still shaken from the day's events, he was planning to skip class in the afternoon to go home and write when he suddenly made eye contact with the nun shopkeeper.
"...?"
He paused, then raised an eyebrow to express his confusion.
The nun nodded, pointed at him, and then went into the room behind the counter.
"Wait, sis, what do you mean? Is this also an unofficial maid cafe?"
Latis remained silent for a while, then, at the beckoning of the nun who peeked out of the door, he involuntarily walked towards the door.
"Lust is a knife above one's head, Latis. The knife... guides, guides what?"
He shook his head, left ten gold coins at the counter as payment for his meal, and went into the room.
After walking through a brightly lit passageway, Latis's eyes widened in surprise. A small chapel had appeared before him!
[Level 6 Divine Spell - Mind Link]
The divine prompt appeared before his eyes, and he immediately turned to look at the nun who was praying before the statue of the goddess in front of the pulpit. Then a gentle voice entered his heart.
"Greetings, Lord Latis, messenger of the goddess."
"Uh... was that you speaking, Sister?" Latis scratched his head, then sat down on one of the three rows of benches in front of the statue of the goddess. After offering a brief prayer, he continued to ask:
"What is the messenger of the goddess? What do you want with me?"
"Please forgive me for only being able to communicate using divine magic under the gaze of the goddess." The nun slightly opened her mouth, revealing her tongue, which had inexplicably been cut into two pieces. She shook her head apologetically and continued speaking through the mental link:
"The goddess's messengers—or, in the common parlance—the cyber police, are the goddess's agents in the outside world. Apart from the temple headquarters on the floating island, there is no branch of the temple even in the capital of the Kingdom of Norard."
"Because the goddess does not need worldly faith, or rather, all the mages who rely on the magic network to cast spells are her believers..."
"But as agents of the Holy Church, we still need to help each other to fulfill the Goddess's mandate. I believe you have already met Miss Mitu. She is a devout believer from the area from Lundia to Dragonhorn and has done a great deal of work for the Holy Church."
“However, Miss Mitu is ultimately outnumbered and outmatched, and as the kingdom’s apprentice ferryman, she is not exactly idle. Therefore, we need to get to know you, Mr. Latis, to provide some additional assistance.”
"I see." Latis nodded in understanding, stroking his chin as he asked:
"Then why don't you recruit more people? I mean, Her Majesty the Goddess has followers all over the world. Shouldn't she be able to get millions of people to respond with just a call to arms?"
"The agent was personally selected by the goddess..." The nun looked helpless, shook her head, and said:
"We have no right to overstep our bounds, and the goddess's favor is not something that can be easily discerned. We can only do our best to share the burdens and solve the problems of Your Majesty."
"That must have been exhausting..." Latis exclaimed sincerely, then suddenly scratched his head and asked:
"If only the monsters could accept the goddess's request, there are so many monsters in this world, they would definitely be a great help."
The nun's gaze froze. The goddess statue behind her radiated a seven-colored light. In this increasingly dazzling light, instead of using a telepathic connection, she opened her mouth, which had two halves of a tongue, and gently moved her lips.
……
……
"So all I asked was for help, why all this fuss..."
Latis walked out of the Silly Cat Cafe, glanced back at the cozy decor, and frowned.
I didn't understand what her lip movements meant, but never mind, I'll remember when I see her again.
