Oh no, I have become a character in the card pool?

Chapter 49: Just learn how to take care of others
A circle of ripples like a water mirror appeared out of thin air on the open space not far from the shrine.

It's like mirrors reflecting each other.

Thus, two distant places were connected.

A petite girl with white hair ran out with her head down and sobbing.

"I'm sorry, Miko-sama, you told me to find someone, but I didn't find him until the end."

A pair of slightly round fox ears trembled along with the girl's sobbing shoulders.

She held the exquisite round mirror tightly in her hands.

He lowered his head.

"Xiaobai is too useless."

She pursed her lips, feeling uncomfortable.

Obviously, for these abandoned children, the witch is the most important benefactor.

But she finally had the chance to hear the witch instruct her on a task, but she couldn't even do such a trivial task as running errands and finding someone.
How can I repay the kindness of the witch in this way?
Because the girl lowered her head, her mind was still confused because she had not completed the task.

So she didn't notice.

There was a strange figure in front of the portal she opened.

".ah!"

The girl bumped her head into Lin Xuan.

Fortunately, Lin Xuan reacted early and grabbed her clothes in time, preventing the little girl from falling dizzy.

"You, who are you?" Xiaobai covered her head, raised her head with tears in her eyes, and saw Lin Xuan standing in front of the shrine.

She opened her eyes wide and looked terrified.

The girl knew that this shrine was the residence of the shrine maiden and was a very sacred place. People usually didn't dare to go near it for fear of disturbing the shrine maiden.

But the witch seems to have some cooperation with the alliance war zone outside.

Only at times like this would people from the war zone outside send important figures in to talk to the witch.

And in the girl's impression.

Everyone who came in from outside could not hide their disgust and discrimination towards these children in their eyes.

Of course.

After all, they are a different species that doesn't fit in.

——It is a homeless monster that is tainted by the filth of the underworld, neither human nor demon.

"I'm so sorry to interrupt your conversation. I'll leave now!"

Xiaobai tried to break free from Lin Xuan's hand in panic. She reached out to her head to find her hat, which could cover her fox ears.

Then she realized that she had run in such a hurry that she didn't even know where she had lost it.

This made the girl even more at a loss.

"Take it easy."

At this moment, a gentle young boy's voice sounded with a faint smile like the clear wind.

"You are very skilled in using the [Water Mirror Reflection Technique]. I remember that even if you use props, you must keep the ether stable throughout the entire process."

"On both sides of the opening and the end point, the error in the input demonic power cannot exceed 2%, otherwise the 'mirror images' on both sides will be different and you will get hurt during the transmission."

The black-haired boy squatted down and looked at the stunned girl with tears in her eyes, as if to encourage her.

He praised: "Not only did you easily connect the two sides, but you also did not let any demonic power leak out during the crossing process."

"That's amazing. Who taught you that?"

Lin Xuan had an impression of this skill - because it came from Xingjian Jingli's unreasonable displacement skill, [Mirror Image of the Myriad Scenes of Heaven and Earth].

In the plot of the mobile game, he tried to increase the strength of the human alliance as much as possible.

In addition to recording the etheric rituals he used and ensuring that copies could be preserved among humans, he also tried to allow more spirit masters to appear among humans.

He also tried to find a way to use the various powers of the various spirits under his command in conjunction with ether.

Try to come up with some practical strengthening techniques.

The previous "storage space" technology was a derivative of these countless attempts.

The same goes for this [Water Mirror Reflection Technique].

Compared to the fox, which has the power to teleport regardless of conditions as long as it sees it once and walks past it.

This skill is much worse and can only be used for point-to-point transmission in reserved places.

But even so, it requires extremely subtle control over the ether or demonic power - in the mobile game, a music game will pop up to complete the level, which is not an easy task.

"what"

The girl seemed to have never been praised like this by outsiders.

She lowered her head in embarrassment.

The fox ears drooped. Although everyone who lived with her said that she was the most talented among them, otherwise the mission that the witch sent to the "outside world" would not have been given to her this time.

But she always thought that this was just everyone's good intentions, after all, she was a new kid in recent years.

And now.
This black-haired boy, who had never seen anyone from the outside world, praised her abilities in an objective and rigorous manner.

This made Xiaobai feel a little excited, and it was a warmth she had never felt before.

"My magic."

She paused for a moment, and seeing the encouragement in Lin Xuan's eyes, she continued, "I learned my magic from everyone in the village at the beginning."

"However, because they said I was very talented, they only showed me the scroll and asked me to learn on my own, and also asked me to come to the witch to try it out."

The girl's voice became a little quieter.

Because the shrine maiden usually doesn't care about them. No matter if someone approaches or no one comes to disturb her, the shrine maiden just looks at the sky.

And she learned the water mirror technique from a time when she was practicing alone somewhere.

The witch suddenly appeared nearby, and when she was trembling and dared not move, she came over and pointed out several of her mistakes in a cold voice.

Rather than teaching, it seemed to Xiaobai that the other party couldn't stand her clumsiness and therefore demanded that she must be perfect.

"I see."

Lin Xuan nodded and glanced at Xingjian Jingli who was still standing on the steps of the shrine.

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

Although he is still puzzled, how could this child, who is neither a spirit nor looks like a human, appear in the space where foxes live?

However, if it were more than a hundred years ago, only creatures with minds would appear in our field of vision.

For Xingjian Jingli, this was already an annoyance that she could not accept.

And it was just like just now.

Lin Xuan actually noticed that when the girl ran over, Xing Jian Jingli frowned slightly.

After all, the fact that the man couldn't be found couldn't really be blamed on the girl. It was indeed some bad guy who interfered and stole the man away along the way.

But with Xing Jian Jingli's personality, she didn't want to talk much even to the envoy sent by the alliance.

Comforting the child.

For her, it was beyond the scope.

"Then, sir, I will leave first."

Because she was suddenly interrupted, Xiao Bai's frustration was alleviated a lot. But she still didn't forget that she shouldn't be here.

However, this time, her hand was still held.

"and many more."

Lin Xuan pointed at himself, and then at the mirror that was still tightly held in the girl's hand.

He rubbed the girl's soft, equally furry fox ears.

He chuckled and said, "Didn't your mission ask you to come find me?"

"Now I, the real owner, am standing right in front of you, but you suddenly want to abandon me and run away. What's going on?"

The words fell.

Xiaobai looked up at the handsome boy in front of him, then looked down blankly at the positioning mirror in his hand.

The fox ears on her stupid head were both standing upright and drooping.

"Eh? Eh?"

Her eyes rolled around in confusion.

Lin Xuan turned around and looked at Xing Jian Jingli with satisfaction.

See, this is how I comfort kids, it comes from my extensive experience in caring for troubled teenage girls.

Do you understand? You are a fox who can only see through people's hearts but not understand them. Learn more.

However, Lin Xuan discovered that a certain fox's light golden eyes were, for some reason, even colder than before.

She came over.

Beside him, he said calmly, "You are really skilled, Lin Xuan."

"I originally thought that you were only interested in powerful contract spirits, but now it seems that you don't even want to let go of a human cub of this age."

Lin Xuan: "?"

Before he could widen his eyes and denounce the filthy thoughts in the heart of this ethereal and sacred-looking witch.

I saw Xing Jian Jingli had already taken a step ahead.

Walking to the front, a figure in blue and white shrine maiden costume walked across the rice field, her short skirt swaying gently, and she spoke softly.

"Come on, I'll take you to the village. It's quite far from here."
