"Mm-mm-mm!"
While teacher Serie struggled restlessly, Gut didn't stop.
Thanks to Flying Brother's incredible talent, in just four and a half minutes, Gut had completely mastered Curse Reversal Magic.
Following the principle of making full use of resources, for the remaining two and a half minutes - that is, 2.5 minutes, 150 seconds - Gut had other arrangents, diverting this ti to his deceased senior brother Bodie's Body Training thod.
Since the two major parts of the Body Training thod - Body Training and Combat Practice - had already been completely imprinted in his mind through the item mory Bread Enhanced Version, he wasn't worried about not being able to recall the cultivation details.
As long as Gut thought slightly, the two different cultivation pathways for Body Training State and Combat State were clearly retrieved from his consciousness, allowing his current extrely powerful talent to understand and supplent them.
In the Body Training pathway, there was one part that didn't seem quite suitable for him. If he could deviate from it slightly, wouldn't that achieve better results?
In the Combat pathway, many pathways seed unnecessary. If they could be deleted, wouldn't both response speed and casting consumption be optimized?
Just like this, ingenious ideas swirled in Gut's mind - so were improvents to the Body Training thod itself created by his senior brother; so were targeted adjustnts for himself practicing the Body Training thod...
Even after the 2.5 minutes passed and the Kirin Flying Talent Experience Card expired with its enhancent effects fading, the enlightened state in Gut's mind didn't dissipate.
Or rather, it silently switched to a different mode.
Previously, relying on that terrifying talent, Gut's subconscious had been more focused on intensive output of improvent ideas.
Now, without the talent enhancent, he followed the direction of these ideas to perfect the Body Training thod to its optimal state as much as possible.
Finally, Gut achieved it.
[Ding!]

"Phew—"
After exhaling a breath of stale air, Gut opened his eyes with an expression showing neither joy nor sorrow, without excessive emotional fluctuation.
The rewards leveraged by using the Kirin Flying Experience Card this ti could truly be called terrifying.
Not to ntion the most basic achievent of completely mastering Curse Reversal Magic.
Just the system's main quests alone - he had completed two in succession, accumulating four talent trait draw opportunities, two copy opportunities, and one cut opportunity.
Plus the System Investigation Module and various enhancents to the Body Training thod.
This rich harvest should have made Gut extrely joyful. However, the two special notes under the Transcendent Body and Combat State talent traits made Gut feel a certain lancholy and doubt.
Was it because senior brother Bodie hadn't used this function much, so there was no enhancent effect in this area?
Or was it that...
His equipnt had already beco so powerful that even Transcendent Body couldn't make it stronger.
Mm, it was probably the latter.
Feeling the soft touch under his right index finger, Gut suddenly rembered he had physically "muted" his teacher earlier.
He quickly withdrew his finger. Looking at his teacher's indifferent golden eyes, Gut gave two dry laughs and, learning from yesterday's girl Sola, tried to "act cute to get away with it."
However, Serie clearly wasn't buying Gut's act. With a single glance, she firmly fixed her disciple to the wall, pulled out a chair from under the table, and while leisurely enjoying the remaining breakfast, occasionally glanced at her handiwork with satisfied nods.
It wasn't until Serie finished today's breakfast and walked into the bathroom with her change of clothes that the seal on Gut changed slightly.
However, it wasn't relaxation but moving Gut's position to a visual blind spot while adding so magical power to make the seal even more secure.
Hearing the rushing water from the bathroom, Gut's throat moved slightly. But even using all his strength, even activating his newly acquired talent trait Combat State, he couldn't do anything about his teacher's seal.
"Sigh, such a waste."
"Even if she won't let go in to watch, at least give a bowl of rice. With the sound of Serie's shower as accompanint, Gut didn't dare imagine how deliciously he could eat..."
When Serie erged from the bathroom, though her hair was still wrapped in a towel, she had already changed into her usual outdoor clothes.
Pulling over a chair to sit beside her disciple, Serie cast Magic to Make Hair Dry and Smooth on her hair while questioning Gut, who was sealed and hanging on the wall.
"During your enlightennt just now, to what degree did you comprehend Curse Reversal Magic?"
"A very high degree."
"How high?" Serie frowned and continued asking.
"This high."
Gut gestured with his freed hands, like a certain leader playing an accordion, constantly bringing them together and pulling them apart.
He intended to tease his teacher with this.
However, from the elf's deeply furrowed brow, it was clear she didn't appreciate her disciple's frivolous attitude.
Looking at the rubber hanger in the hotel suite, Serie had planned to use it to give her disciple a small punishnt to make him more respectful toward his teacher.
But if the target was Gut, would this be punishnt for him or a reward?
Recalling the last ti she had beaten Gut and he enjoyed it, Serie silently abandoned this idea.
This was no ordinary disciple - she needed to use magic to deliver serious punishnt.
Like Magic That Makes You Itch Continuously, Magic That Makes You Fall Even on Flat Ground, or Magic That Makes You Miss Even Guaranteed Rewards When Drawing Lots?
Seeing his teacher's expression enter ominous contemplation, Gut tensed up and imdiately understood it was ti to end this joke.
So he quickly said, "Teacher, do you rember our agreed Three-Year Term?"
"I rember." Serie asked in surprise, "You an during this enlightennt you've already mastered the introductory section of Curse Reversal Magic?"
"That's right."
Out of trust in his teacher, Gut initially wanted to follow this thread and also confess to his teacher that he had completely mastered Curse Reversal Magic.
However, probably because he had just ntioned the Three-Year Agreent main quest, an idea ford in Gut's mind.
"Teacher, would you like to make another Three-Year Agreent with ? This ti, let's bet on whether I can completely master Curse Reversal Magic during this period?"
The disciple's words made Serie pause, unable to imagine how much he had comprehended during his enlightennt to dare propose such harsh gambling conditions to her.
Thinking of all the miraculous things that had happened to this disciple, Serie ultimately didn't promise lightly but pondered for a long ti before speaking.
"One year."
"If you want to bet, I'll only give you one year."
According to her calculations, even with Gut's currently demonstrated best comprehension ability plus frequent enlightennts, he would still need at least two more years to completely master Curse Reversal Magic.
Betting on one year was already quite conservative.
"Well..."
Since he suspected his teacher might have magic to listen to others' hearts, Gut kept repeating one year in his mind to suppress his own thoughts.
"Then teacher, let's discuss the stakes."
"Since you've set such a 'harsh' condition, can my required stakes also be a bit 'higher'?"
"What do you want to bet? If it's too excessive, I won't agree."
Serie watched her disciple, her eyes flashing with warning.
"If I win, would you go on a date with ? As lovers, for no more than three days, and any transgressive actions would require your consent. How about it?"
"Acceptable."
"But if you fail to do it, I require that for twenty years you must not harbor any improper thoughts toward , and our teacher-student interactions must strictly follow propriety and morality."
"Fine."
The mont Gut agreed, a crisp notification sound rang out.
[Ding!]
The corner of Gut's mouth curved into a smile. Plan successful.
Originally holding a trial mindset to exploit a bug, seeing if the Curse Reversal Magic Stage Two that the system had already settled could be triggered again.
Unexpectedly, it really worked!
[Main Quest - First Date with Her]
[Quest Requirents: Complete first date with Serie and achieve emotional progress]
[Quest Rewards: Talent Copy Opportunity X2, Talent Gift Opportunity X2, Guaranteed Pregnancy Set X2]
"Huh?!"
"Isn't the main quest Curse Reversal Magic Stage Two?"
"And what the hell is this Guaranteed Pregnancy Set?!!!"
