Chapter 36: The Devil Hides

A short separation is better than a new marriage. For the next two days, Luo Xi did not go anywhere. He stayed in the house with Nicole and basically did nothing but eat and sleep.

I don’t know if it’s because he’s been exercising so much and his physical fitness is too outstanding, or if it’s because he’s just in adolescence when his energy is at its peak and his hormones are overflowing, but Luo Xi never feels tired and seems to have endless energy all over his body.

Or maybe Nicole is just too charming.

After all, she has a pretty face and figure, and her temperament and personality are very pleasant. Even if Luo Xi makes strange requests, she will try her best to satisfy them even if she is reluctant.

Because she was too excited and her brain was running wild, Luo Xi would always do some inexplicable things, just like the love action movies she had seen before, such as night raids, getting things all over her face, etc.

But no matter how excessive Luo Xi was, she would just act coquettishly for a while, and if she felt uncomfortable again, she would quickly return to normal after a few words of coaxing.

In this constant accommodation, the noble lady's bottom line was pulled deeper and deeper by Luo Xi again and again. Elemental Castle, dormitory.

In the dormitory, the two people who had just finished a tender moment were lying on the bed. Nicole leaned on Luo Xi's chest, imagining a bright future.

"Haha, I never thought that I could pass the test. I'm so lucky."

“I’m really grateful to my family.”

Nicole was lucky. The wizard who gave her the appraisal and assessment task was none other than the senior from their family. After learning about her situation, he gave her a full score for the task assessment, allowing her to barely pass the assessment and enter the inner castle.

After all, this is not a fair and just modern society. No matter how you peel off the layers of the wizarding world, its core is still family politics, at least on the south coast.

Here, one’s own strength is definitely the most important, but if one has a strong enough network of connections, one can make up for one’s own shortcomings to a certain extent. Sometimes, the role played by the background even exceeds one’s own strength.

Of course it's not fair, but no one ever said it was a fair world, did they? All in all, it's a good thing, especially for Nicole.

"I don't believe in gods, but I really believe from the bottom of my heart that the goddess of luck is on my side."

Although Luo Xi promised to never leave her, she really didn't want to stay with Luo Xi in this way. It would make her feel that she owed Luo Xi and that she was a vassal and a burden to Luo Xi.

She is Nicole of Osiris, the youngest daughter of Count Huiyue. She also has her persistence and pride.

Especially in terms of emotions, she can give, but cannot be forced. What she chooses must be what she wants, and cannot be forced by any external force.

"You sleep a little longer, I'm going to class first."

"Come on, the graduation exam is over, can't you relax for a while? Look, I just got back, why don't we..."

After learning that Nicole only scored 13 points in the comprehensive assessment, the wizard, probably feeling ashamed, criticized her severely and then assigned her a large number of study tasks.

"Here, I've been with you for many days, okay? The stupid bird should fly more diligently. I should seize this hard-won opportunity."

Nicole said as she put on her clothes and left in her boots.

"This is really"

Luo Xi looked at her anxious appearance, shook his head helplessly, and could only leave the bed reluctantly.

"I should also calm down."

The key to a wizard's path is persistence. Only by accumulating little by little can one achieve a brilliant future. It's okay to indulge in women occasionally, but one cannot always indulge in the beauty of women.

After putting on his clothes, Luo Xi sat down at the table and took out a magic book from his space bracelet.

It was a black hard cover with a ferocious demon head on the cover. It was the same magic notebook that the black wizard had held before.

According to the rules of the alliance, after the dark wizard is wiped out, all assets left behind by the dark wizard can be taken as their own as long as they are not prohibited by the alliance.

After the investigator came, Luo Xi handed the ring left by the dark wizard to the investigator to take back to the castle for inspection. A few days ago, when he returned to the castle, the inspection results came out. Luo Xi took a look and found that except for a few missing materials, the rest were returned to him.

Those materials were not rare and valuable, but they were rather dangerous and of no use to the apprentice, so they were taken away. However, they were also converted into magic stones as compensation.

Luo Xi opened the notebook and began to read.

Although demonology is rare in the Alliance, it is not a taboo knowledge. After reviewing it, Castle felt that there was no problem and returned the notebook to him.

Luo Xi was still somewhat interested in the strange transformation technique that Joseph performed that day. Similar knowledge subjects were rare in the castle, so of course he had to study it now that he had the chance.

"rustle…"

Time passed by bit by bit, and only the sound of turning pages echoed in the room.

Soon, one of the apprentice spells inside caught his interest.

"Demon Concealment? I see. That day he used this spell to hide himself, so that I couldn't sense his spiritual power?"

This is an advanced apprentice-level spell with a concealment effect, and it is specifically targeted at the direction of mental power. It can conceal one's mental power so that others cannot detect it.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The fact that his own strength progressed beyond normal logic and he could not find an explanation has always been a headache for Luo Xi, especially when he had to find a way to hide his own strength every time he was assessed.

Currently, the method he often uses is a magic potion that can temporarily reduce his strength. However, not only does this thing give him a headache and discomfort every time he drinks it, he also has to prepare it a few days in advance and is unable to deal with emergencies.

Luo Xi had wanted to find a way to easily conceal his strength a long time ago, and the demon's concealment in front of him seemed very suitable.

He immediately unfolded it and read it carefully.

"This structure looks like a magic seal, right?"

"So this is how you can use the sealing technique on yourself, sealing your own strength, thus achieving the effect of hiding your strength."

After carefully studying the spell, Luo Xi quickly figured out the principle behind it. This is actually the structure of a sealing spell, specifically designed to seal mental power. There are many similar spells in the wizarding world.

However, the model structure of this spell is very delicate, and there will be no side effects when sealing. Luo Xi was full of praise after seeing it.

"Genius, it's really a genius idea. Demon Concealment should not be its original name. I wonder who invented it?"

Luo Xi took a look and found that normal spell models would usually have the source and the wizard's author specially marked on the back, but this kind of black wizard's notebook of unknown origin was not so formal. Luo Xi didn't see any marks after flipping through it again and again. It seemed to be copied from other places.

Seeing this, Luo Xi could only put it aside for the time being, and return to the model in front of him. Of course, he had to learn some practical spells.

"How much time is left now?" Luo Xi opened the system and took a look.

Time point: 238 days.

I had wasted all my time on my promotion to advanced apprentice, so I had accumulated some during this period and didn’t spend much of it. Now there are 238 days left.

Maybe it was because he had participated in more projects outside, Luo Xi felt that his efficiency in accumulating time points was twice as much as usual.

"It should be more than enough to learn magic."

Thinking in his heart, Luo Xi immediately began to learn this spell (End of this chapter)
