Nightti.
After Shami finished freshening up, he sensed sothing wasn’t right. Standing at the villa entrance, he stood there dazed for ten minutes before anxiety began to set in, contemplating whether to step out for a bit.
Although knowing there’s a high probability that nothing bad would happen, he couldn’t help but worry.
Fortunately, the appearance of the girl slowly erging from the shadows of the night eased his concerns.
"Lina, you’re back?"
Seeing the fatigued white-haired girl, Shami stepped forward to check her condition. She was unhard, and the cowlick on her head was intact.
"Did you chat with the teacher for a long ti?"
The white-haired girl shook her head.
"Actually, I only chatted for an hour. Then, on the way back, I seed to have taken the wrong paths a few tis and got lost, that’s why I ca back so late."
The white-haired girl embarrassedly touched her cheek and, seeing Shami, her eyes brightened, "Were you specifically waiting for , Shami?"
"No. I was just standing here to enjoy the cool breeze."
Retracting his gaze, Shami pushed the white-haired girl’s shoulders to return to the villa together.
"Did you encounter anything on the way?"
"No, but it seems like I wasted a lot of ti..."
"You could have used the one-ti Teleportation Gate."
Shami thought about it; a lv1 one-ti Teleportation Gate doesn’t seem capable of returning him to the Demon King’s side.
"But since it’s given by Shami, I can’t use it lightly."
Compared to the carefree use by the flat-haired girl, the white-haired girl cherishes it a lot.
"Honestly. After we return, take a nice bath and then go to sleep."
"Hmm."
The white-haired girl nodded, glancing at Shami behind her, her small mouth hesitant, unsure whether to tell Shami about it.
In the end, she didn’t speak up.
Shami’s anxious heart settled.
Walking up to the second floor and returning to his room, just as he was about to open the door.
The door on the opposite side opened, Saili leaned against the door fra, her arms crossed, looking at Shami.
The Magical Girl finally caught Shami alone.
"The one sneaking around stealing books from the library, that’s you, right? You’re a cunning little rascal, Shami."
"Borrowing the na of ’Hundred-Changing Phantom Thief’ to freeze birds, as a Magical Girl you have no right to say such things!"
"I have sothing to tell you. Co inside first."
The Magical Girl gestured towards her room.
Shami walked inside.
The door closed.
"What is it?"
"It’s about magic."
"Hmm?"
Shami grew curious.
"You should know, as a Mage, when casting magic, you’ll consu Magic Power inside, while also draining your physical strength. Once reaching the limit, not only is the Magic Power completely depleted making it unable to cast magic temporarily, but the body also falls into a weakened state."
"Isn’t this the case for all Magical Girls?"
Shami thought of Magical Girl settings, they’re mostly similar, generally all like this.
"Ahem."
Saili coughed.
"But it varies from person to person; there are quite a few Magical Girls with special differences. For example, twenty years ago in the history of Fata, there were three Magical Girls; one would enter a gluttonous state after depleting Magic Power, constantly eating non-stop. The other two would enter a sleep state, able to sleep three to four days at a ti."
Shami tilted his head 45 degrees and nodded.
"I understand."
Great, seems like it’s a Demon King highly receptive to novel ideas.
"Later, those three Magical Girls beca famous Great Mages in Fata’s history."
The Magical Girl chatted naturally, finally bringing it back to herself and getting to the point.
"As a Saintess, I face the sa problem..."
"Is it gluttony or deep sleep?"
"Neither. It’s about body water content..."
"After using magic, does it rapidly deplete body water?"
Shami’s guess was pretty accurate.
The Magical Girl nodded.
"Then drinking more water in advance could solve the problem, but after all, that tackles the symptom not the root cause."
Grabbing his chin, Shami began to ponder seriously.
His general direction was right, but more precise specifics were sowhat off.
"It’s not about drinking water..."
The Magical Girl opened her small mouth, but the next mont couldn’t spit out the words.
Wait, can’t speak further ah!
How can such a thing as bursting be spoken, totally different from the previous two sequelae categories, right!
Although she had done quite a bit of psychological preparation, when it ca to really explaining her reason for picking flowers a second ti, the Magical Girl still found it difficult to vocalize.
If the Saintess is seen as a monster, if Shami discovers she wants to explode water after using magic...
Plus currently already holding enough leverage in Shami’s hands, if truthfully told, wouldn’t it just be freely offering another weakness?
After hesitating for a long ti, the Magical Girl decided to conceal it for now.
"Forget it, I won’t say anymore."
"How can this be?"
The rare mont the Magical Girl wanted to open up her heart, precisely the best chance for promoting trust between them, how could it just be given up like this.
Shami leaned forward, looked earnestly at the Magical Girl, and began to guide her.
"Speak up if you have sothing, Saili, I’ll find a way to help you solve it, no matter what, as a well-inford Demon King, I won’t be surprised."
The Magical Girl bit her silver teeth, still unable to articulate it.
"Still no..."
The Magical Girl refused again, seeing this, Shami didn’t insist further.
"Alright then. Lureya understands Spiritual Technique, Spiritual Technique and Magic have similarities, maybe I could chat with her."
Turning to leave, Shami startled the Magical Girl, quickly grabbing him.
