Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 260 There are too many tsundere heroines!
Lani handed the wooden upside-down statue to Bai Shi and said:

"On the east coast of Lienia, there is a very conspicuous building. You may have seen it before."

"That building is a library called Kalia's Study. It was once an important place for the Kalia royal family."

"But now it's just an abandoned building that no one cares about."

Lani sighed slightly. The once glorious Kalia royal family has now fallen into decline.

Kalia was once led by her mother, the Full Moon Queen Reinara, and became a powerful royal family that could compete with the Golden Tree. But now, due to Reinara's loss of heart, it has also fallen.

If Lani chooses to lead many magic knights and old ministers as Princess Kalia, then there is actually a chance to revive the glory of the Kalia royal family.

But this is not her path, and she will not regret her choice.

But... after all, I feel a little emotional.

Lani continued to speak to Bai Shi:

"In that study, there is a secret path leading to Lienia's Divine Tower."

"However, normally there is no way to unlock that road. If you want to go there, you need this item."

"The structure in Kalia's study is very peculiar. I'm sure you will be surprised by it."

Bai Shi took the inverted image and turned it upside down.

There was a slot on the base above the head of the wooden statue apprentice, which was the structure used to connect the inverted statue to the planetarium.

Bai Shi put away the upside-down image and nodded to Lani.

"Okay, I'll accept it."

I deserve this reward for my achievements in several battles!

Lani nodded slightly, very satisfied with Bai Shi's willingness to accept it.

She doesn't like owing favors to others, and if Bai Shi keeps refusing, she will feel uncomfortable.

After Bai Shi accepted it, he planned to go and see Melina in the amber egg.

However, the expression on Lani's face at this moment was very conflicted, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.

Maybe Lani is really very conflicted now, so even Bai Shi can easily see that she seems to have something to say to him.

But Lani herself didn't realize that her facial expression management was out of control.

Seeing Lani like this, Bai Shi quietly turned his head and waited, pretending to read the books on the bookshelf, leaving Lani enough space to think.

Lani hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke:

"Oh yeah... there's one more thing."

"You have been to my magic tower before. After I leave, if you want, you can go there to see if there is anything you need."

"Whether it's books or anything else, feel free to take it."

"Those are no longer needed, but don't destroy it too much."

"Well... there is another... a magic tower."

"It's better not to go there..."

Lani's voice became weaker and weaker, but she still pretended to be calm.

Although she said it, she felt conflicted in her heart and she couldn't calm down for a while.

Bai Shi nodded silently in agreement, but he was cheering in his heart.

The other magic tower that Lani mentioned is the last of the three sister magic towers - Rena Magic Tower.

Reina is the pseudonym that Lani once used, and her real identity should be the snow witch of Lani's teacher.

In her magic tower, there is a portal left by Lani.

That portal is the portal to the main stream of the Ansel River, from where you can go to the 'Eternal City' Noxstella.

If you don't take this portal, you will need to go to the 'Unknown Eternal City' at the bottom of the deep roots and drift in a coffin to reach the main stream of the Ansel River, which will be much more troublesome.

The most important thing is that although Lani seemed very conflicted and said it was best not to go, she still took the initiative to tell him.

For someone like Lani who has a tsundere personality, what this means is self-evident.

Of course, these are all blind analyses.

Regardless of whether it is true or not, the Lani branch line can continue to move forward.

Bai Shi agreed and thanked Lani for her generosity.

Then he quickly passed on the topic.

Bai Shi looked at Lani, who had not yet recovered from the shock, and asked her:
"You said you were ready to leave. When do you plan to leave?"

When Lani saw that Bai Shi was asking about serious matters, she completely regained her usual calmness and replied:

"Well, I'm ready to leave."

"I will inform you when the rebirth is almost complete, and then leave."

At the moment, it seems that there is no problem with being reborn, and there is nothing she needs to do even if she continues to stay here.

And once the girl's rebirth is complete, it would be best to leave the time to themselves.

It would be a bit of a downer if she stayed here and watched them enjoy their reunion after their rebirth.

Lani continued:

"Thanks to you, I don't have to worry about Blaze anymore. I'm also leaving old man Iggy in your care in the future."

"It is time for me to embark on my own journey, a path that goes deep into the darkness."

"Having said that, it was fate that really brought us together during this period of time. I should thank Torrett as well."

"It wasn't long, but it felt good to be with you."

Lani turned around, leaving Bai Shi with only her back.

But then she turned around and looked at Bai Shi worriedly.

"By the way, remember to wait until I leave before going to those two places."

Bai Shi nodded in agreement.

Although I had originally thought of taking advantage of this time to pick it up, but since Lani said so, there is no need to save this time.

After all, that is where Lani's real body is, and it may have special meaning to her.

Anyway, there is no rush to go, so it’s not a problem.

After Lani finished speaking to Bai Shi, she floated up into the air and continued to lie on her back reading.

But at this moment, she turned her back completely, so that Bai Shi could only see her back, and the book in her hand was held very close to her face.

Seeing that Lani no longer paid attention to him, Bai Shi walked to the center of the library and came to the side of the Full Moon Queen.

In the amber egg, Melina's figure has almost taken shape.

Through the hazy amber egg, Melina's figure was blurry, with only a vague outline.

At this moment, Melina was curled up like a baby, with her hair flying around.

Bai Shi looked at Melina curled up peacefully in the amber egg, and he felt completely relaxed.

Everything is going smoothly.

Speaking of which, it's about time that Burke sew some clothes for Melina.

The outfit she usually wears must be arranged, and a few sets of clothes must also be prepared for her to change into.

If possible, Bai Shi hopes that Burke can sew a few nicer ones.

I wonder if Burke can sew a maid outfit or a sailor uniform if I tell him about it...

Hmm? If I don’t have the body data, I can’t sew clothes…

Bai Shi couldn't help but feel a headache. It seemed that he would have to make do with making Melina wear some ill-fitting clothes for the time being.

It would take time for Melina to be reborn, so Bai Shi did not stay in the library any longer. He planned to go back to the magic academy to take a look, as he had not seen teacher Se Lian for a long time.
-
Lani, who had been secretly using her soul to observe Bai Shi, saw him teleport away with her own eyes. She then put down the book in front of her and covered her stomach with it.

Lani sighed.

"…In the end, I gave the things to him."

"The curse of death, maybe it will help him if he holds it."

"Besides, I left a way for him. I don't know if he will go there..."

"No, I told him not to go. Based on his previous behavior, he probably won't go."

“I don’t know if this is the right thing to do.”

Lani looked up at the ceiling and closed her eyes.

"Oh, I'm so confused. Why am I so hesitant about this? Do I really want him to come?"

"Rani, Rani, you are not indulging in unrealistic fantasies, are you?"

"If the outcome of all this is different from what I imagined, it's all my fault."

"…If he can find a way and come here, then I will reluctantly believe in so-called fate once again."
-
Bai Shi came to the magic academy through blessing.

At this moment, the magic academy has already repaired some areas, but due to the lack of professional craftsmen, the progress is slow.

Fortunately, the craftsmen transferred from Stonewell by Bai Shi were already in place before he left, and the construction speed was significantly increased.

Bai Shi found Teacher Se Lian who was watching the construction team working upstairs.

When he saw Bai Shi, a smile appeared on Teacher Se Lian's face.

"Disciple, you are really going too far. Look how long it has been since you last visited me, your teacher."

"I'm not some witch that's hard to meet now, am I?"

"But... although you don't care much about me, I always keep you in my heart."

"During the time you were away, I have been diligently helping you rebuild the magic academy~."

Listening to teacher Se Lian's teasing, Bai Shi could only smile and briefly told the teacher about his previous experience.

Teacher Se Lian, who was joking just now, immediately became serious when he heard that Bai Shi had entered the spirit world.

Bai Zhi had not had much contact with things related to the soul, but Se Lian was different. She had once used a ritual to place her soul in the source stone, and she knew that anything related to the soul could not be taken lightly.

So Se Lian immediately asked Bai Shi about his condition in detail, and then forced Bai Shi to check it again.

Only after she confirmed that Bai Shi's soul was fine and had even become noticeably stronger did she relax.

After listening to Bai Shi's experience, Se Lian jokingly said:
"Oh, I didn't expect this to happen."

"Would you like me to come with you next time you go? I don't want to miss out on something fun like this."

Bai Shi shook his head and refused.

"No need, teacher, you should stay here and help me look after the magic academy."

“It’s not really a challenge for me there yet.”

Although Teacher Se Lian said this as if jokingly, if Bai Shi agreed, she would definitely go with him.

However, Bai Shi would never let Teacher Se Lian pass. He didn't want his teacher to suffer spiritual damage there every moment.

Seeing Bai Shi’s refusal, Se Lian did not insist and started talking about what happened recently in the magic academy.

"Apprentice, thanks to Stonewell's construction team, the academy is now being repaired quickly every day."

"In about two days, it will be back to its full glory."

Bai Shi looked at the Faded Ones working hard below and nodded.

The construction team was composed of powerful Faded Ones, which meant that their support was very fast and they arrived at the Magic Academy in a short time.

And because they had been renovating Stoneville, the speed of work was quite excellent.

At this time, Bai Shi noticed that there was a zombie in the team, which surprised him.

Since this zombie appeared here, it must have been brought here as an exception because of his excellent work.

The living corpse of the Holy Body of Tumu? It's really surprising.

But Bai Shi didn't care much about it. After all, it was just a special zombie.

However, when talking about construction, Teacher Se Lian pulled Bai Shi aside and pointed to a towering tower nearby.

This tower is located in the center of the Magic Academy. It rises from nowhere, passes through the entire Magic Academy, and goes straight into the clouds.

Se Lian looked at the tall tower and said:

"On top of that towering clock tower, there should be the greatest and most important magic circle in the history of the magic academy - the realm of magic."

"This is the magic circle that covered the entire academy in the past."

“A vivid success experience is like an instant inspiration. To put it in an exaggerated way, it can turn a baby who can’t walk yet into a magician in an instant.”

"It can be said that the former glory of the School of Magic is inseparable from the blessing of the Land of Magic."

"But for some unknown reason, there has been a complete malfunction there and it no longer provides this effect."

"I have searched in various places in the magic academy before, but there is no way to get there."

"Now that you've learned gravity magic and used the storm, you should be able to fly over, right?"

"How about you go up there and take a look?"

Bai Shi nodded, the blessing of the magic realm was indeed powerful.

Covering the entire Magic Academy, you can enjoy the bonus as long as you are in it.

You should know that this is a percentage-added magic. In reality, it directly improves intelligence and has a very strong effect on learning and studying magic.

Even ordinary magicians can get a considerable bonus, and the bonus obtained by the masters is probably even stronger.

This thing definitely needs to be fixed.

And now Bai Shi can indeed fly, if it doesn't work, he can call on Celine Shanks for help.

However, Bai Shi plans to take the path in the game this time.

That is, go through the crystal cave of the academy, where there are two crystal people.

The main reason is that Bai Shi really wants to meet those crystal people.

Those crystal people are a communicative race, and have connections with the Magic Academy and certain other forces. There are even corrupt crystal people.

Maybe we should get in touch with them and see what the so-called wisdom in the stone is.

Then, before leaving, Bai Shi asked about the whereabouts of the cuckoos.

Although the cuckoos expressed their submission, Bai Shi did not trust them that much.

As an army that has existed since the Knox Dynasty and has been wary of the Magic Academy, they will not surrender so easily.

Moreover, the white consciousness also needs to supervise their behavior and stop all kinds of bad behaviors.

It’s a pity that the magic academy’s surveillance of the outside world is only in the lake area and some special places.

For example, the place where Teacher Se Lian was once imprisoned.

Therefore, the whereabouts of the cuckoos are not easy to observe. Perhaps this was a requirement made by the cuckoos in order to avoid becoming a complete vassal of the magic academy.

Judging from the cuckoos' behavior when the construction team arrived, they were relatively normal.

But it's hard to say whether he is pretending.

Bai Shi thought that he should see with his own eyes what they looked like.

　Good news, there are many formulas that can be used for the make-up exam.

　　Bad news, I got so nervous I forgot the formula halfway through writing
