What's wrong with me, a mage, loving to farm?

Chapter 135. A Golden Melody, the Olive Elf

"A Serenade of Tranquility"

If one had to say what would be most suitable for these magic crystal mice, it would undoubtedly be Serenade of Tranquility.

The power of a quiet serenade lies more in its silent comfort and harmony than in its ability to convey joy.

However, Kroya still wanted to give it a try.

The chapter "Serenade of Tranquility" actually celebrates the peaceful and harmonious growth of all things under the sun's rays.

As long as the sun shines, all suffering and pain will gradually disappear in the light.

Because no matter what, the sun will rise as usual, and the pain and struggle will disappear with the rising sun.

Its ability to calm all the restlessness of magic comes from this, which is equivalent to an extremely ingenious technique.

If we could extend that further, we could see happiness in the sunlight.

To elaborate further, these magic crystal mice...

"It's a bit strange, but I want to give it a try." He gently stroked the head of the magic crystal rat. "I just don't know if you can really withstand absorbing all this painful emotions and remain as stable as the sun."

The Magic Crystal White Mouse has a very high intelligence.

They climbed onto Chloe, raised their heads and stared at her with expectant eyes.

"Give it a try."

Kroa began to imprint one of them.

However, during the engraving process, he slightly altered the spell model of "Tranquil Serenade" and added another type of magic.

That is, the fourth-level mental magic: Light of the Mind.

This magic allows one to radiate their spiritual power in the form of light, influencing those around them, including people and magical beasts.

In fact, there are similar magical methods on the holy side as well. For example, when bishops and other holy priests preach, they use this kind of magic to make believers feel baptized and illuminated by the radiance of "God".

Its effects are actually quite good.

Most importantly, this magic doesn't require a high level of magical power, but rather a high level of mental strength.

This is perfect for a level 3 monster.

The mental strength of the Magic Crystal White Rat is actually quite special, much stronger than human strength, so it shouldn't have any problem using this.

He initially thought that modifying the inscription of such powerful magic would be extremely troublesome, but to his surprise...

Very relaxing.

Even the magical imprint of the Serenade of Tranquility, when applied to the magical imprint of actively accepting the light of the soul, gently and silently integrates it completely into one's body.

It only took one minute to succeed.

[Imprint complete, Magic Crystal White Mouse (Rainbow Poem: Crimson Song Chapter 3 and Light of the Soul)]

[The current magical form changes, and the effects will also change.]

[Currently, the Magic Crystal Rat can extend its spiritual power, forming a halo of spiritual energy. Within this halo, it can absorb all emotions of sadness and pain.]

The maximum absorption limit cannot exceed its level's maximum, and a certain amount of time is required to process different emotions after absorption.

[Continuing to cast this spell will result in evolution, with a certain probability of completing "Rainbow Poem: Crimson Song" or learning "Rainbow Poem: Golden Melody" ahead of time.]

Kroa's eyes widened.

Complete!

To complete the "Poem of Rainbow Light" that he is currently studying!

This was a prompt that had never appeared before, because in his mind, this magic was extremely advanced, absolutely complete, and could not be expanded any further.

Furthermore, it mentions "The Poem of Rainbows: Golden Melody," which, if I'm not mistaken, should be yellow, following red and orange.

So, it turns out there's a slight possibility of learning later chapters ahead of time without having to follow the steps exactly?

It was indeed a bit beyond his expectations.

"Could it be that my previous guess was wrong, and that it is actually a magical amplification ability, allowing it to accept magic in this way?"

Could we try experimenting with more magic?

He felt it wasn't impossible to try.

As for "Golden Melody".

"Just guessing, could the golden melody be about happiness? That's a rather broad concept."

I felt that since it was a prestigious title like "The Poem of Rainbow Light," it shouldn't be that simple, and I probably wouldn't continue to focus on mental power.

Since the Orange Song is already about mental power, will the third chapter continue?

"Never mind, let's see what this spell is first."

Kroya shook his head, temporarily putting the matter aside, and looked at the magic crystal rat, commanding it, "Let me see the magic you've just learned."

The latter nodded, and suddenly a golden halo appeared on his body, dancing merrily.

Its body was enveloped in this halo, making it look like a crystal statue filled with golden liquid.

Gorgeous.

Even Kroya felt very comfortable under these radiant lights; the joyful light emanating from the Magic Crystal White Rat could immerse one in it.

You don't need to think about anything, just enjoy the happiness it brings, just like watching some comedies in a past life, it's pure and simple happiness.

The magical plants and beasts growing in the laboratory were all bathed in these halos—Holy Light Four-Leaf Clover, Woody Curved Vine King, Thick Earth Potato, Orpheus Swan Recorder Tree... and that olive branch that had been propagated.

It, which had been calm and still, suddenly trembled.

If Kroya had been watching, he would have noticed, but his attention was completely drawn to the ghost owl that had suddenly woken up.

The latter made a sound:

"Coo coo?"

There was a hint of doubt in it.

Then, the ghost owl flapped its wings and flew over.

It stood on a tree branch-shaped shelf that Kroya had specially made, tilting its head 180 degrees to look at the golden-glowing magic crystal white mouse.

"Wait, you can't eat this!" Kroa quickly warned it.

Mice and snakes are both food for owls, so who knows if it might suddenly peck at the magic crystal white mouse a few times.

"Coo-coo!" the owl called again, then suddenly flapped its wings and flew above the magic crystal white mouse, before slowly transforming into an olive branch laurel wreath.

A beautiful, emerald-green olive branch crown slowly landed on the head of the magic crystal white mouse, casting wisps of light upon it.

The combination of emerald green and gold somehow created a sense of the divine.

Meanwhile, the olive branch was undergoing some subtle changes—its leaves were actually growing.

Tender new buds grow on the crown, intertwining and entwining, making the originally simple crown a little complicated, but even more magnificent.

This is the second unexpected thing that happened to Kroya today.

The owl's crest actually reacts to the joyful aura emanating from the Magic Crystal White Mouse, and judging from its appearance, it seems to have evolved.

Through the Celestial Imprint Technique, Kroa could see the owl's soul bathed in golden light within the magnificent crown.

Tiny grayish-white fragments fell from its body.

Like an evil spirit that vanishes into thin air under the sunlight, drifting away with the wind.

After the grayish-white fragments fell, the owl's soul became even purer, and the olive branch deep within its soul also lost its white color, revealing a touch of green.

If its previous name should have been "Pure White Olive Branch," then now it could be loosely called "Eternal Green Olive Branch."

"This change is..." Chloe pondered.

He could barely understand that the grayish-white fragments that fell from the owl's body were perhaps a jumbled mess of unpleasant memories.

It disappeared under the illumination and stimulation of the light of happiness.

Why did the olive branch also lose its white light? In Kroya's previous guess, it was probably a magical rune that helped the owl stabilize its emotions.

Now it seems that this seemingly pure white might not be quite right, and may even represent a negative emotion.

He pondered for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and turned to look at the olive branch planted in the demon soil.

If the olive branch inside the Owl Star Spirit undergoes a mutation, will it also change?

The result is affirmative.

Lush green leaves have grown on the branches of the Yongqing olive tree.

But only one leaf grew.

It was like a vibrant, lustrous piece of jade, trembling on the olive branch even though there was no wind.

It seemed to want to fall, but because it didn't have enough strength, it looked like it was struggling on top.

"Is that so?"

Kroya glanced to the side, then silently imprinted the same magic on the remaining nine crystal rats.

then……

Ten magic crystal white mice emitted a golden glow.

The dazzling light illuminated the entire laboratory as if it were daytime.

The evergreen olive tree absorbed this light, and its leaves grew rounder, greener, and more... ethereal.

It's actually elementalizing!

The process of transforming matter into elements seems to draw upon the golden light of joyful hearts.

"Can this also involve a change from matter to elements?"

"This is really interesting. You guys can actually have such a strange reaction." Kroa waited to see what kind of changes it would produce.

After about ten minutes, it seemed to have absorbed enough energy to detach itself from the branch and drift away, creating a gentle breeze around it.

It was a refreshing breeze that carried it to Kroa.

"Elf, you are an elf."

Kroya extended a finger and let it fall onto her fingertip, which immediately conveyed a sense of consciousness.

"Happy~"

The consciousness, drifting like a gentle breeze, stirred the surrounding objects and created a refreshing breeze.

"Wind spirit, shouldn't you be a spirit made of wood magic?"

"……hapiness."

The message it conveys seems to be happiness in the literal sense.

After emitting this consciousness, it eagerly left Kroa's finger.

Then it flew directly to the Magic Crystal White Rat and merged its body into the latter's body.

Immediately afterwards, light, bird-like wings appeared beside the Magic Crystal White Mouse, lifting it up and disappearing into the laboratory.

"...!!!"

Kroa's spiritual power remained with it and was not severed by its disappearance.

Instead, they were carried into the outside world, flying towards a snowy wasteland at an extremely fast speed, almost like teleportation.

In the blink of an eye, we passed the frozen sea and arrived on land, where we saw a group of stone buildings.

That's... the Hanjiao Island pier.

Here, soldiers and Atlantean knights are surrounding a parked carriage, which appears to be the carriage of a Seleucid merchant.
