“Is this an intelligence headband?”

Looking at the metal wire sucked onto the skin on Carl's forehead, Nia reached out and touched it curiously.

To the touch, the metal wire seemed to be fused with Carl's flesh.

If pulled, the wires will twist along with the skin.

This makes Carl look like a resident of some cyberpunk world.

It’s just that the transformation he carried out was the most basic one.

"Won't this be uncomfortable?"

Poking Karl’s face, Nia looked surprised.

"It will be really uncomfortable if you keep poking me like this." (_) Looking at Nia with some dissatisfaction, Carl raised his hands and twisted his ten fingers.

This action reminded Nia of the experience of being tickled. She jumped back and actually fell directly on the sofa.

Bending her body, she protected her vital parts by crouching with her head in her hands, and looked at Carl vigilantly.

"Hey! There's no need to be so defensive. Where's the most basic trust between people?"

After having experimented with the Dragon Claw Hand on Nia once, and under Nia's repeated threats, Carl agreed to our condition of never using this forbidden technique lightly.

But Nia obviously did not give up practicing defensive moves.

Isn't this a clear sign of distrust?

"Don't give me that! You said before that you would help me improve the Iron Guard. It's already the second half of the second year, where is the design?"

A faint light shone on the metal line extending from the forehead to the temples, and Carl's intelligence, which was raised to 19 points, made him recall the incident quickly.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm busy all the time. And you know, my intelligence attribute is not very high, there will always be times when I can't take care of everything."

After hearing Karl’s explanation, the expression on Nia’s face remained unwavering.

"Really? But I heard you were very active when you were modifying Hope's equipment!"

"How can it be the same? We know each other very well!"

Although he complained in his heart, Carl still explained: "Please, you are my best friend, don't be jealous because of my friendship with other people. I will introduce you to each other some other time. Hope is a very trustworthy person."

After saying this, Karl blamed himself severely in his heart.

He always felt that his words were like those of frivolous men who were having multiple relationships at the same time.

Of course, no matter how much they reflect on themselves, they still have to find trouble with Lisanna.

No one else would tell Nia about Hope's affairs except her.

"You are thinking about how to punish Lisanna now, right? This matter has nothing to do with her. I asked her about it."

Obviously, Lisanna is the heartless one who is the most fence-sitter, but Nia is now very protective of her, as if they have a deep sisterly love.

“How could I possibly think of causing trouble for Lisanna, I was just thinking about when to take you to meet Hope.

By the way, would you like some of my mom’s ham?”

Realizing that he couldn't continue to dwell on this topic, Carl decisively changed the subject.

Of course, Nia knew that Karl was trying to change the subject, but she could only sigh helplessly and wait for Karl to cook.

If the name is not right, then the words will not be right. She is not Carl's girlfriend or wife, so naturally she has no right to forbid Carl from interacting with other girls.

"It was obviously me who was there first..."

Nia hugged her legs with a bit of grievance, grabbed the fabric of the sofa and snorted.

Before long, the room was filled with the tempting aroma of ham.

"bump!"

Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Lisana came over with dishes in her hand, smelling the smell.

"Wow! It's the ham made by Aunt Elifel! I want to eat three bowls!"

Swinging her long white legs, Lisanna rushed into the house.

However, before Lisanna could get close to the pot, a kitchen knife was placed horizontally in front of her.

Looking at Carl in confusion, Lisanna didn't understand what she had done wrong.

No matter what she did wrong, she still had to eat!

"Have you finished your homework?"

Putting on the attitude of a stern brother, Karl asked with a vengeance.

Looking away guiltily, Lisanna swayed her body, ready to act like a spoiled brat.

"No, I haven't finished it yet, but, but Lisanna is hungry!"

As she spoke pitifully, Lisanna exuded an adorable aura that came from a cub.

After holding on for more than ten seconds, Carl was defeated.

But even though he softened his heart, he still leaned over to Lisanna's ear and warned her, "Don't mention each other in front of them anymore. Got it?"

Nodding blankly, Lisanna received a bowl of freshly cooked pickled pork with preserved vegetables.

Lisana ate the meal with great relish, accompanied by the fragrant rice.

“Dinner is ready!”

Put the food on the table and today's lunch begins.

Nia had calmed down by now. Seeing the metal wires on Karl's arm, she asked with concern:

"You still haven't finished the Ogre Power Gauntlets, right?"

This sentence is basically giving both parties a way out. Nia is like a child in this regard. If she is still angry, she will even refuse to eat.

"Yes, that's right, but that would take up two of the synchro quotas."

Whether it is the headband of intelligence or the ogre gauntlets, they need to be attuned to the user to take effect, and ordinary people can only attune three magic items.

If Carl was not an armored division, he would really be reluctant to do this.

The conversation between the two sides eased the originally dull atmosphere, and then the three began to talk about their recent academic problems.

Although there are three people, in fact, it is mainly Carl and Nia.

Lisanna was concentrating on eating almost the entire time.

"By the way, Lisanna, do you want me to make some intelligence headbands for you to help you enhance your intelligence?"

The intelligence improvement brought by the intelligence headband can only enhance memory and thinking speed. Knowledge still requires their own thinking to understand.

But being able to remember knowledge is still of great help to rangers.

"Eh? Is this possible?"

“I can only help you memorize the knowledge quickly, but you still need to understand and apply it by yourself.

By the way, it is forbidden to wear intelligence headbands during the exam, so don’t think everything is fine just because you have a headband.”

After hearing the first half of the sentence, Lisanna's eyes lit up. She then stood up, put one foot on the stool, and was about to roar to the sky and deliver some very childish lines.

But after hearing the second half of the conversation, she silently got down from the stool and dusted off the stool.

"Woo, woo, woo, is there no shortcut to learning?"

"No."

"Wow~ Why did I have to come here and suffer like this?"

Lying on the dining table, Lisanna let out a painful groan that belonged to a poor student.

Nia patted Lisanna on the back lovingly, but as a genius, she was unable to empathize with her good sister.

In her opinion, interpersonal communication is much more difficult than studying.

Ah! I think I caught up. My previous message is useless.
