Several hours later, Ellie finally finished browsing through the records and sighed.
Many of the theories were ones she had never seen before and couldn't judge. Luo Fan, on the other hand, carefully studied the research on slime structures and seemed to have gained some insights, even determining the direction for future enhancements.
Although banning magic reduces magic usage, wouldn't it be possible to use magic again if one widens their own magic channels? However, it's such a waste; with armor-piercing bullets, why bother with a broken pistol?
Returning to the management desk, Ellie handed all the books to Freya and prepared to leave.
"Ellie, I wonder if you still have your mother's research notes? I'm very interested." Freya smiled professionally and took the books to inquire.
"Quickly say no! This guy is no good!" Luo Fan shouted, as he himself was hiding a monster research diary.
"Teacher, I don't have any here either. My mother's research is always kept very secure."
“I even went to the place where she used to live, but I couldn’t find any relevant research. If you don’t have it here either, then forget it.” Freya seemed disappointed.
"By the way, I admire her a lot. She's the boldest scholar I've ever met, and these reports have given me a lot of inspiration." She added, then looked at the slime on Ellie's shoulder with a half-smile.
"Thanks!"
"Where are you staying now, still at the Princess's residence? Let me see you off." She packed her things, seemingly also preparing to leave.
"Teacher, there's no need for that. We can go back by ourselves."
“That won’t do. I heard that Toria has advanced, and I was just planning to go see her when I have some free time.” With that, she suddenly moved into the warehouse and then quickly moved in front of Airi, all in less than 2 seconds.
"Lightning Release?!" Daisy stared wide-eyed at the mage with this rare attribute.
Lightning magicians are quite rare, and they are predominantly male, with females being extremely rare.
"Young lady, you have good eyesight; it is indeed Lightning Release. And your Yuki-onna is also very well trained!" Freya exchanged pleasantries politely before following Airi and the others out of the library.
She studied the carriage pulled by the horned lion with great interest before sitting inside.
"This woman, is she planning to follow us? Could she have some ulterior motive towards me? Was her initial behavior just an act, or was she simply not aware of what was going on?" Luo Fan was curious and would have to find out more about her background when they got back.
It seems that her attitude gradually changed after the principal left.
Inside the carriage, she indeed caught Luo Fan and began to examine him closely. Luo Fan was somewhat terrified; this was no joke.
"Aili, can this slime really communicate with you telepathically?"
"Um."
Because of Luo Fan's repeated warnings, Daisy, the big-mouthed one, became much more obedient and stopped undermining him.
"Daisy, is it okay if he and your Snow Maiden are also together?"
Daisy nodded, looking quite distressed. This woman was a bad person; she couldn't expose Luo Fan's secret.
Xiaoxue, holding her slime in her arms, sat far away from Freya, afraid that Freya would come and snatch it away.
“You don’t need to do this. I really mean you no harm. I’m just curious why this slime can see through my disguise so easily.”
After saying that, she transformed back into her original form, the beautiful woman in Luo Fan's eyes.
"Wow, sister is so beautiful!" Daisy exclaimed. Having not noticed before, Ellie finally understood why Luo Fan had acted that way; he really was a big pervert.
Even Xiaoxue's gaze towards her changed noticeably; it turned out that Brother Fan's preferences hadn't changed at all.
“Daisy, you guys are pretty good too, and the Snow Maiden is adorable.” Freya said with a smile, while her hands were sensing the differences in Luo Fan.
So many magic cores, and they're all dark-type, no wonder it's so dark. It can even block my senses; it's definitely not an ordinary slime.
"Luo Fan is very smart, sister, please don't make things difficult for him, okay?" Daisy said coquettishly, having almost no resistance to this beautiful woman.
"Okay!" As soon as he let go, Luo Fan jumped into Ai Li's arms.
o((⊙﹏⊙))o.
This woman is something else; she's actually started studying his anatomy. She's definitely not a good person.
Seeing her getting close to Daisy, Luo Fan quickly reminded the latter to avoid falling into a trap.
As a result, the two of them whispered to each other the whole way, completely ignoring Luo Fan's warning.
Inside the princess's residence, Toria was stunned to see Freya arrive; they hadn't seen each other for a long time.
"Freya, are you now willing to join my knight order?" Caitlin asked curiously from the side, having been thinking about this lightning-type girl for a long time.
"No, I don't want to be ordered around by you. I just came to see my good sister. I heard she finally advanced." She smiled and hugged Toria's delicate body, which made Luo Fan's eyes widen.
They really are good friends! Could it be that Toria also graduated from the Second Magic and Martial Arts Academy? That shouldn't be the case, right?
"Hmph, if you don't want to, fine, who cares!" Caitlin cursed, then grabbed the slime next to her and started kneading it.
"You little brat, how dare you lie to me! There's no entrance to the secret realm inside the lava!"
"It's sunk inside, isn't it? Why don't you use your compass to look for it?" Luo Fan was still enjoying the princess's massage, but his eyes were drifting to the other side, looking absent-minded.
"The secret realm has been found, but I'm saying the entrance to it can't be found!"
As Freya watched the princess talk to the slime, she seemed to have discovered something.
"Good sister, can the princess hear the slime's voice too?"
“Yes, we can all do it!” Before Luo Fan could stop her, Toria blurted out.
"Little one, how did you do that?" Freya released Toria's delicate body and leaned closer, her smile widening.
"I don't know, I don't know anything. Xue'er, let's go find Xianxian to play!" After saying that, Luo Fan disappeared into the shadows and left, and his other clones also disappeared at the same time.
Xiaoxue paused for a moment, then ran off as well.
"Toria, do you know what's going on here?"
"The ability he gained in the secret realm is similar to telepathy, but he needs to actively connect with it," Toria said after thinking for a while.
"It has such an ability? This slime is really something else. I really want to study it properly." Freya's eyes widened, her interest growing stronger.
"You'll only scare him away like that. Freya, did you really come here just to see me?"
“Of course. Your Highness, I would like to stay here with Toria for a few days. Once you go to Holy Sea City, it will be even more difficult for us to see each other again.”
"Whatever~" Caitlin was still thinking about what Luo Fan had just said about the narrow entrance to the secret realm. If that was really the case, then they would have to find other methods. Trying to trick him into going in again would probably be very difficult.
However, it wasn't a complete loss; at least the message garnered the guild's support over there, so we wouldn't be so passive when we went to Holy Sea City later.
"Then it's settled! Toria, let's go to the backyard and practice. It's been a long time since we've sparred. I wonder how strong you are now."
In Xianxian's room, Luo Fan was carefully observing the woman's movements; he hadn't expected her to stay.
Why is this wicked woman, who's like an old witch, coming to ruin my peaceful life? Even if you're beautiful, it's not allowed.
"Brother Fan, don't you really like beautiful women?" Huo Yu asked curiously from the side.
"That's a different matter. That beauty is no good! She started touching me inappropriately right away and even tried to study my magic core!" Luo Fan complained, only to find that she had once again set her sights on the adorable Ahri.
Xianxian was still meditating. Luo Fan had put a lot of pressure on her after he reached level 45, and she had been meditating for much longer each day, even though Luo Fan tried to persuade her.
Xiaoxue, who was standing to the side, was also stimulated and became unusually hardworking, so Luo Fan now had much less time to play with them.
