In the second layer of the dream world, Carl put down the notebook that was materialized by memory and lay on the ground with his head raised.

In the open space nearby, a brand new power armor model stood quietly.

Compared with words in books, Carl prefers to use practice to help himself remember relevant knowledge.

Coincidentally, the power armor transmission structure that his master complained about was mentioned many times in this year's knowledge points.

So Carl simply learned the theoretical knowledge while using the dream world to simulate the new power armor structure.

It’s no wonder that this way of learning helped him understand things much faster.

After adjusting the transmission structure of the power armor, the maximum output of the power armor is almost equivalent to 18 points of strength attribute of the same size.

There is still a gap from the 20 points mentioned by the teacher in Moore's class, but Carl feels that this is not his problem, but that the textbook has not yet taught that level of knowledge.

"It would be great if my artificer level could reach level 10. I could add the magic pattern of the ogre power gloves to the hand armor of the power armor, and the power of the power armor would directly reach 20 points."

Of course, Carl also knew that he could only think so for now.

After recalling what he had learned today and making sure that he had missed nothing, Carl left the dream world.

…

"Wow! What are you doing!"

As soon as he opened his eyes, Karl saw Nia in pajamas standing beside the sofa, looking at him resentfully.

Two silver-gray drill curls hung on his chest, less than a palm’s distance from Karl’s face.

"It's time to get up! How come you're so sleepy right now? No matter how I call you, you won't wake up!"

Perhaps she was really frightened by Carl's appearance just now. As Nia said this, she raised her little foot and kicked Carl's calf.

Whose good person looks like dead when he falls asleep?

"Um, maybe it's the aftereffect of being parasitized by the Mind Flayer larvae? Ever since I gained psychic powers, I sleep very deeply every time I fall asleep."

Because he was afraid that his family and friends would think that he was driven crazy by psychic power, Carl did not tell them about his biological plug-in.

However, after hearing Carl mention psychic power, Nia nodded as if she suddenly understood something.

"It's psychic power! That makes sense, but Karl, don't get too obsessed with it! A monastery in Fairhaven once tried to introduce psychic training to the monks in the monastery, but half of the monks in the monastery went crazy a month later."

"Tsk, why do you all have such a big prejudice against psychic powers? Including my mother, what happened in Fairhaven back then?"

Listening to Nia's evaluation of psychic powers, Carl secretly complained in his heart.

Carl's mother, Elifel, also told him about this matter, but the details were a little different. In the version told by his mother, it was a group of wanderers who tried to master psychic powers that went crazy.

This made Carl wonder whether some shocking case related to psychic power had happened in Fairhaven, the capital of Aundair. Otherwise, why would their impressions of psychic power be so unified?

"Don't worry, my psychic power is only a little bit strong. I can feel other people's emotions, but that's all."

After evading Nia with the words he used to evade his mother, Carl got up from the sofa and prepared to make breakfast.

Soon, a delicious breakfast was freshly prepared. After Nia and Carl finished eating, they started to explain the questions to him again.

"Wait a minute! Check it out now! In fact, I can recall today's memories through psychic power even in my sleep, so I have almost understood those knowledge points!"

"almost?"

Giving Karl a suspicious look, Nia took over her notes and flipped through two pages at random, trying to check Karl's learning progress.

Unexpectedly, Carl not only answered the questions fluently, but was even able to give his own opinions.

"Although you have relied on the power of psychic energy, you are now finally able to understand things like a normal person!"

Karl, who originally thought that Nia was going to praise him, even smiled, but when he heard her evaluation, the smile on his face froze.

He clenched his fists angrily, but Carl did nothing in the end.

"Your definition of a normal person may be different from mine!"

After taking a deep breath, Carl stood up, raised his right hand, and gestured between Nia's head and his chest.

Nia didn't understand what Carl was doing at first, but with her natural intelligence of at least 16 points or even 18 points, she quickly understood everything.

With a "swish", her fair skin instantly turned pink, and was moving towards red skin similar to Hope's at a speed visible to the naked eye.

She is red and warm!

"Damn it! Carl, you bastard!"

Although this should be the age when children grow the fastest, Nia's body has not grown much since she entered school.

On the other hand, Karl, after only a few months of not seeing each other, Nia could only barely reach his chest.

Nia has always been concerned about her developmental delay, especially when girls in her grade are all developing well.

Nia punched Carl's chest with her little fist. Maybe she felt that the damage was too little, so she kicked Carl's calf twice.

But Nia's strength was so weak that Carl even felt like she was giving him a massage.

'Her strength will never exceed 8 points. Do you want to take her to exercise?'

As he was thinking this, Carl discovered that Nia's skin quickly returned to normal.

"Humph! I'm not angry! As long as I can make deeper research in the School of Transmutation, physical development and the like can be improved with just a spell or an alchemical potion!"

Looking at Nia, who was obviously very angry but extremely stubborn, Karl reached out and pushed Nia onto the sofa.

"You! What are you doing!?"

Looking at Nia, who appeared to be strong but was actually weak, Carl stretched out his evil hands.

“Woo~Haha! Carl! You can’t…Haha! Hahaha…”

Tickle the flesh, a child's trick.

But it must be said that this unique phenomenon from the body's immune mechanism is a good punishment for those who are stubborn.

Especially for those guys who can't really do anything but are very annoying.

"Let me go! Carl! If you do this again I will...hahahaha..."

I don’t know how much time passed, but Carl finally stopped.

Nia, who was about to laugh herself crazy, collapsed on the sofa, no longer having the same arrogance as before.

"You have classes later, right? Come to my place after class. I don't think you have any extra food. Oh, and don't forget to bring your experimental equipment."

After saying that, Karl stood up and walked out.

Nia, with a dull look in her eyes, used her limited strength to make a "hmm" sound, but it was immediately drowned out by her own heavy breathing.
