My Weekly Refreshing Mentor Spirit-Chapter 272 - 256: All Magic and Hardcore Skills
Her human side did nothing wrong.
But her divine and royal sides were gravely mistaken; she herself actually impeded the world's progress. When the world no longer progressed, falling behind meant getting beaten.
If you hadn't been beaten for lagging behind before, it was just because others didn't want to beat you.
Moreover, with the enemy using possession to hide their identity and purpose, along with a whole bunch of supporters, this well-tested Religious Warrior was thoroughly outsmarted.
Xue Dili scratched his head; this was the most troublesome situation he'd encountered.
He even felt it was more headache-inducing than when he went to fight Zeus.
At least Zeus had clear weaknesses and shortcomings, and based on his curses and the weakness of "thinking with the little head", many plans could be executed.
But this particular enemy, the only thing he could think of was a Mechanical Descent.
Or outright ignoring the planet, delivering a devastating strike from outside its range, which would require at least a hundred times the power of the Celestial Thunder Star-Burning World-Destroying Cannon.
In short, it's a headache, an extreme headache.
On the message board, Xue Dili had already encrypted this information and posted it. He didn't know if anyone else could see it, if any predecessors would come to help him solve the problem there.
Facing the heretical, there's no need for morality, you just charge together!
After the afternoon classes concluded, Xue Dili had gnawed through three pen tips, and the inside covers of his clinical medicine and ideological books were densely filled with intelligence and content.
He hadn't absorbed a single word of the classroom content; his mind was full of thoughts on how to solve the problem.
When he left the classroom, an unexpected older student approached him.
"Junior, next week is the seven-day holiday. During the holiday, our band has a commercial performance. Would you like to come watch?" Lian Shan said.
"Huh?" Xue Dili was a bit confused.
Suddenly, he remembered that this older student hadn't left the band; instead, she reassembled it. Now it seemed to be going well, even getting commercial performances?
Could it be that their naive sweetness led them to be tricked? How can a commercial band be looking at Ke University, after all, Ke University isn't an art college, but one of the schools with the most academic atmosphere in the East. Any communities here are simply for interest.
Xue Dili felt he really had to take a look, or let that little Knight from Silver City take a look, at least to prevent any cliched drama scenarios from occurring.
"Where's the commercial performance? If I have time, maybe I could bring friends along," Xue Dili said.
"Hm-hm, it's in the West Suburb of Jiang City, at a newly built farm inn, something called 'Silver City' maybe? They're planning a grand opening discount just before the holiday. Several school clubs have been invited over," the older student seemed very pleased and even took out a coupon, saying,
"Junior, this is our internal coupon; when the time comes, you can use it to experience for free!"
Xue Dili: "..."
In fact, he was the second largest shareholder of Silver City.
Looking at the experience coupon in his hand, it read "Silver City Inn Grand Opening, Experience an Authentic Danish Fairy Tale Magic Kingdom Journey!"
Xue Dili: "..."
He suddenly remembered that the folks at Silver City crafted a fake identity for him as "Danish," plus they really looked the part with their golden and silver hair, and no one doubted them.
Moreover, the inn wasn't just fairy-tale themed, it was genuinely all about magic and craftsmanship, with houses entirely made of growing peas, vegetables all magically expedited, flour turned through Bread Technique, and furniture assembled entirely by Knights...
Even the people inside were all experienced feudal warriors and mages.
No bit of nature, all crafted work!
Seeing Xue Dili's hesitating expression, the older student seemed a bit nervous, asking, "What's up, junior?"
"No, nothing; if I'm not busy, I'll go, thank you for taking care of me," Xue Dili said with a smile.
"Yeah, yeah, talk on WeChat then, bye!" The older student dashed over and left in a hurry, knowing Xue Dili wasn't too comfortable with others lingering around him, so she took care not to overstay.
Looking at the coupon in his hand, for the first time today, Xue Dili smiled.
In any case, the people of Silver City are on the right track in this world.
In the Main World, they could become his eyes and subordinates, helping him resolve some matters.
He slipped the coupons into his pocket and headed home.
Given the situation, heading home was the plan for now, as for the issue with the puppet Angel, Xue Dili intended to contact some Veterans from the Interstellar Corps for a discussion.
"Daughter, your dad's coming to slay you now."
Xue Dili's pack of seven wolves were already raring to go.
...
Returning home, the whole house was bustling, and Xue Dili heard not just one "whoosh whoosh" sound.
Xue Dili: "..."
Opening the door, he saw four children clad in little dinosaur pajamas playing games on the floor, with the whole living room lined with a big plastic mat, textbooks strewn all over, and countless blocks and constructs.
The Little Dragon Lady in green dinosaur pajamas shouted "Wa-hey" after assembling a mobile house, then stomped it to the ground.
The child named Bai Ya wore white dinosaur pajamas, Siam's new kitten wore yellow, and Fafnir, even the oldest one, wore pink dinosaur pajamas, playing joyfully with other little girls.
Xue Dili: "..."
The Little Dragon Lady was less than a year old, while Bai Ya and Siam were just about elementary school age, barely over ten, and Fafnir, you're already JK-aged, how do you manage to play along with them?
It couldn't possibly be that she's just playing like this to make herself happy, right?
Or is it that she wants to get along with Little Dragon Lady, so she deliberately integrates herself into her group?
Fafnir is not a child, so Xue Dili considers her from an adult's perspective.
But seeing her so happy, just let her play.
"Dad!" Little Dragon Lady seemed to smell Xue Dili and instantly wobbled over in her little green dinosaur costume.
Wobbling like a caterpillar.
The other kids also came over in dinosaur costumes, making Xue Dili feel like he was in Jurassic World, and when Little Dragon Lady bumped into his ribs, his vision went black for a moment, and he couldn't hold the pack of Sevillas in his hand.
Seeing the kids, Xue Dili still didn't make use of the Sevillas.
The house seemed to have turned into a kindergarten, and Xue Dili wouldn't even be surprised if a slide appeared in the yard tomorrow.
Oh no, there's a park at the east end of the village near the main road, with all kinds of slides and fitness equipment, so there's no need to install any at home. Going there is like a kindergarten field trip.
Suddenly, a sense of duty known as "paternal love" came over him, and Xue Dili asked, "What did Little Dragon learn today?"
"Learned addition and subtraction..." Little Dragon Lady said, a bit unsure of herself.
"We learned addition and subtraction today, and Little Dragon can already handle addition and subtraction of around a hundred." Fafnir immediately said, showing Xue Dili a "praise me" expression.
"Addition and subtraction, huh?" Xue Dili was immediately ready to test Little Dragon Lady, saying, "What is 100 minus 35?"
Little Dragon Lady immediately started using her fingers to count, sweating profusely, and Xue Dili didn't rush her, quietly watching her continue to calculate.
"It's... it's 75!" Little Dragon Lady announced her answer.
Xue Dili: "..."
The other three little ones: "..."
"Then what is 85 plus 25?" Xue Dili's face darkened, continuing to ask.
"It's 100!"
The atmosphere fell silent all of a sudden, even Fafnir wore a ghostly expression, lowering her head and saying nothing.
Xue Dili silently withdrew the Sevillas, saying, "Hold out your palm."
Seeing the Sevillas, Little Dragon Lady seemed to have some instinct awaken, shivering and not daring to hold out her hand.
"Teacher, how about you scold me instead..." Fafnir proactively offered herself up, extending her hand.
Xue Dili: "..."
Forget it, he's starting to feel like the villain here.
But while death penalties can be avoided, living penalties cannot. Xue Dili picked up an arithmetic book from the ground, quickly writing out more than a dozen addition and subtraction problems around one hundred, saying, "This is today's homework, and no bread until it's done today."
"Okay!" Little Dragon Lady's face brightened immediately, and she took the workbook over to the table.
In the kitchen, auntie was making food, and it seemed there was spare rib soup today. By the looks of it, auntie didn't have it easy taking care of the kids all day.
And just as he was sighing about this, the doorbell rang, leaving Xue Dili wondering who would come at this time.
Opening the door, he saw Princess Rabi of Silver City at the entrance, with an unfamiliar female Knight as her escort.
Xue Dili asked, "Is there something you need?"
"Sir, the day before the long holiday, our guesthouse is opening, and I've come personally to invite you." She said cheerfully, holding out a stack of discount coupons, the 0% off kind.
Then, the Little Princess poked her head in to look inside, seeing a bunch of strange little girls in dinosaur pajamas...
Wait, little girls!
Her expression instantly froze, looking at Xue Dili in shock.
Can I join in?
This thought popped into her mind immediately, but she quickly shook her head.
No, I should be wondering where these children came from, right? Clearly, Mister already has the world's most adorable me, so why are there so many children living at his place too!
This isn't fair, why isn't it me!
And then she saw Fafnir who was locking eyes with her, and both of them froze in place, their gazes meeting in the air, like lightning striking between them.
Fafnir: "Dammit, it's an adversary of the same type and nearly as cute as me!"
Princess Rabi: "Dammit, it's an adversary of the same loli type, just slightly less charming than me!"
An unnamed flame seemed to ignite in their eyes, an ominous aura erupting between them.
Neither knew what they were burning with, but they were alight, like fighters who must battle once their eyes meet, their auras intensifying, soaring, surging!
"Sir, may I stay for dinner?" Princess Rabi asked first.
Fafnir raised an eyebrow, as if to say: Hmph, not only not running away but daring to face me directly, you brat!
Meanwhile, the lodgers White Raven and Siam, two middle-schooler-disease lolis, seemed to sense the aura of this astonishing battle, frozen in place with bloodthirsty light in their eyes, awaiting the prelude to this remarkable battle.
Seeing the two supreme beings battling to the edge of the cosmos, eradicating the great way — that would be worth the price of admission even in death!
