Chapter 220 Trial Use of the Waterbed: Obeying the Master's Orders
While adjusting the water element concentration little by little, Shu Xin considered whether she should give up using magic, abandon the water element, and directly use the magic-rich spring water of Sun Spring to make a waterbed.
After careful consideration, Shu Xin decided to use magic—
The material is soft enough and doesn't leak water. Currently, the only type of plant leather in the Land of Sin is made from snow dragon fruit branches. Since the plant leather has been used up, she can only go to the Snow Clan to exchange for more snow dragon fruit branches if she wants to try it.
Shu Xin's main idea is to promote the waterbeds after they are made so that the flower fairies can also use them. Waterbeds can cool and heat, and the climate of the Land of Sin is still a bit cold for the flower fairies. Even in this weather, Shu Xin can see the flower fairies wearing cloaks when she gets up early in the morning.
Persistence pays off. With the help of the Tree of Life and Shu Xin's continuous adjustments, the final version of the freezing magic circle was finally able to release cold air stably instead of freezing the entire waterbed.
Shu Xin wasn't quite sure what the specific magical principle was. If the freezing magic circle on the waterbed were drawn normally, the magic runes that had been rewritten many times wouldn't be activated no matter how much magic power was input. However, under the effect of high-purity water element, it could take effect automatically without any additional magic power input. It must be using the free magic power in the air.
Anyway, as long as you know how to use a refrigerator, you don't necessarily have to learn how to build one. Shu Xin comforted herself with the refrigerator theory and continued to try to draw the heating magic circle. The waterbed already had the cooling function, so it was time to study the heating function.
When Xi entered the bedroom, the Flower Fairy was sitting on the floor with her back to the door.
Her shimmering long hair and wings almost completely concealed her figure. Xi could only sense the constant flow of magical energy around the flower fairy, and the dazzling magical glow in the air. He curiously peered over and asked, "Darling, what are you doing?"
Shu Xin excitedly raised her hand: "Look!"
A cluster of bright, sparkling red flames danced at the flower fairy's fingertips.
If you look closely, you'll find that at the center of this cluster of flames, which appears translucent and ethereal, there is a beautiful, equally ethereal figure spinning and dancing. The leaping flames are her leaping, the swaying flames are her swaying, and what flickers and dances amidst the surging magic is both the intense and vibrant flames and her graceful and passionate dance.
Xi frowned slightly:
"Darling, if you want to see fire elemental spirits, I can catch a few for you in the volcano. You don't need to burn up all your magic power to condense them, right?"
He's a fire elemental spirit? Wait, burned all his magic?? Shu Xin's eyes widened in surprise.
Xi exhaled directly, blowing out the flame that the flower fairy had presented as a treasure.
The moment the flame burning on her fingertips suddenly went out, Shu Xin's raised arm fell limply. Only then did she belatedly realize that she had no strength left, and her magic power was almost completely exhausted. At this moment, almost every part of her body, limbs, and internal organs was aching.
Having successfully used the freezing magic circle as an example, Shu Xin quickly adjusted the waterbed's heating function. However, she became increasingly interested in the magical runes in the modified magic circle. The key runes in both magic circles could attract free magic in the air. After trying them out and playing with the freezing runes for a while, Shu Xin reached out to the heating runes as well.
The magic of freedom converged into sparks, which then ignited into flames. Within the flames, a tiny, dreamlike, semi-transparent figure appeared. Its incredibly graceful and exquisite dance captivated Shu Xin, who watched it for a very long time without realizing it.
If Xi hadn't walked into the bedroom and interrupted her appreciation, Shu Xin thought she would probably be in big trouble.
Under Xi's disapproving gaze, Shu Xin awkwardly tugged at the corners of her mouth.
Xi couldn't help but sigh.
He had long noticed that Shu Xin lacked basic knowledge about magic, but this most basic knowledge was difficult to explain in detail. Just like fish live in water and birds can fly in the air, he only knew that fish live in water and birds can fly, but if asked why, to be honest, he didn't really know.
But he has something he knows very well and is very good at—
The succubus, who resembled a blond boy, beamed with a bright smile: "Darling, you need to replenish your magic~"
Before Shu Xin could say anything, she was picked up and placed on the soft waterbed that still exuded a faint warmth.
Xi noticed the subtle magical glow flowing across the pale green straw bed and curiously leaned down to examine it closely: "Is this a heating magic circle? Darling, weren't you going to make cool bedding?"
Although her limbs were weak and she was almost unable to move due to her depleted magic, Shu Xin still answered Xi's question with some pride:
"I made it! A waterbed that can both cool and heat! This isn't just a heating magic circle! Can you spot the key magic rune? Try flipping over the patch of grass where the rune is!"
Raising an eyebrow, Xi found the heating rune on the side of the bed that was in an active state.
He reached out and touched it. The place where the runes were drawn was indeed a small, movable circular piece of grass. Following the flower fairy's instructions, Xi flipped over this small, exquisitely connected circular piece on the complete grass carpet. On the back, there were clearly ice runes drawn.
As the frozen runes appeared, the free magic in the air gathered, and the magic runes were quickly activated, with wisps of cold air emanating from the waterbed.
Xi was somewhat surprised. The flower fairy did indeed lack common sense about magic, but it was precisely because of this that she could always come up with many wonderful ideas.
Coincidentally, he also had many ingenious ideas about replenishing mana.
"Darling, how about we try something different today?" the succubus asked with a knowing chuckle.
Shu Xin instantly became alert: "Beast form won't work! The tail won't work either!"
The other party showed an exaggerated expression of disappointment: "Okay, beast form is not allowed, but why is the tail not allowed either? My dear, my master, you were clearly very happy that time, weren't you?"
"No means no!" Shu Xin said firmly.
"Alright, alright," Xi stretched out her arms and pulled the flower fairy into her embrace, gently supporting the back of the fairy's neck with one hand and softly stroking the fairy's cheek with the other. "Then you can't refuse the human form, okay, my dear master?"
"Human form is acceptable, but it must be indoors, not outdoors!" Shu Xin emphasized.
Xi readily agreed, "Of course it has to be indoors, darling. We can try out your new waterbed!"
Her limp body began to slide, but then a steady support came from behind, preventing Shu Xin from slipping out of Xi's arms. She vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
The blond boy smiled sweetly: "My dear, beloved master, you usually prefer me as I am now because I'm harmless enough, but in bed you prefer another version of me because I'm powerful enough, right? How greedy you are!"
"But one must always obey the master's orders, mustn't one?"
Another deep voice, completely different from the boy's clear voice, slowly sounded in the flower fairy's ear.
The young man's broad chest approached from behind, and before her was the boy's sly smile. He blinked, leaned in, and a hot kiss landed on her soft lips, silencing the words the flower fairy hadn't yet uttered. The next second, his large hand covered her eyes, obscuring her vision, leaving only the cool, pleasant chill in the air becoming more pronounced.
Sunlight streamed in through the window; the day was still long.
