Magic: My equipment slots have no restrictions

Although Victor was somewhat interested in the so-called magical creatures, he was more interested in the fact that the items he had obtained were most likely from his deceased senior.

He didn't want to disappoint his senior, as he believed in remembering those who helped him.

"equipment."

With a slight thought, he immediately felt a chill run down his spine, and then looked at the equipment slots.

The slot that previously held the item "Student who accidentally trespassed into the territory" is now glowing with a faint light, and the item information can still be viewed, but the girl's corpse is nowhere to be found.

Are you looking for me?

At that moment, Viktor suddenly heard a hoarse voice behind him, uttering each word slowly and deliberately. If he had to describe it, it would be "a fake."

Viktor stopped in his tracks, turned around abruptly,

But there was nothing behind him.

Just as he was wondering what was going on, he suddenly felt his trouser leg being tugged, and then he looked down.

Then, within his sensory field of vision, he saw a little girl with grayish-white skin.

"Um?"

Viktor frowned, looking at the other person with some suspicion. If it weren't for the proportionally scaled-down academy gown the other person was wearing, he probably wouldn't have recognized him at all.

"Are you a student of Silvermoon Academy?"

"I am."

The little girl responded in that strange way, a hint of curiosity flickering in her large, unfocused eyes.

However, Viktor could tell that the corpse was curious because of the equipment's feedback to him, rather than because he actually saw that emotion in the other person's eyes.

Furthermore, in those few short seconds together, Viktor could sense that this senior's consciousness was very active, and she did not appear to be a dead person.

Perhaps it's because it was transformed into a magical pet.

"Let's get going."

Viktor felt a little strange being stared at by something that was neither warm nor breathing.

He touched his slightly cold back and continued walking.

"..."

The senior girl glanced at him, then followed behind with her short legs, stretching out her two gray hands and looking down at them.

Having just been summoned, she hadn't yet adapted to this body; she had only just come to understand the fact that she had been transformed into a magical pet.

Looking at the two severely shrunken hands, even those lifeless eyes were now filled with deep resentment.

And this emotion was transmitted to Viktor's mind without any error.

"Unexpectedly, even now, this senior student hasn't forgotten the humiliating way she died."

Viktor thought to himself, a chill creeping down his spine for no apparent reason, and couldn't help but interrupt the other's thoughts:

"I'm sorry to wake you up this way, but this is all I can do."

Hearing this, the senior student raised her head, stared at Viktor's back for a while, and slowly spoke:

"La."

After learning the senior's name, Viktor began using his social skills, asking about her life and hobbies, and what she did at the academy.

What friends do they have, and what are they good at?

Soon, Victor felt the chill behind him lessen considerably, and he also sensed a slight sense of familiarity from the equipment representing Laura.

"..."

Seeing that Laura was now willing to walk alongside him, Victor breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the time was ripe.

"Was Laura also sent here by her mentor for training?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Laura's face, which had previously shown a slight smile, returned to its usual calm.

Victor knew that the other person was thinking about that terrible cause of death again. But this time, he didn't feel the chill on his spine deepen.

"I did come here to gain experience on the orders of my teacher."

Immediately afterwards, he heard Laura's childish voice in his mind, and his expression finally relaxed a lot.

There is a spiritual connection between a pet and its owner. When the intimacy level exceeds "nodding acquaintance",...

Both parties can then have a heart-to-heart talk.

He hadn't used it before because he didn't want Laura to feel the difference between him and the other person, but now that the other person had used it, the meaning was completely different.

"However, going through the left passage was my idea and someone else's, but... never mind, that's all in the past."

Laura lowered her eyes slightly, her ashen eyes somewhat empty.

Fortunately, it was only for a moment; the senior student glanced at Viktor's profile.

"Thank you anyway."

"There's nothing to thank me for; it was just something I did in the middle of the day."

Victor smiled and looked toward the cave entrance that emitted a faint glow in the distance, but in his mind he was pondering Laura's words.

When the other person brought up the past, there was a clear sense of resistance, which clearly meant that there might be more to Laura's death than met the eye.

They even have an inseparable connection with "the other person" mentioned by the other party.

"By the way, Senior Laura must have also descended into this mushroom cave before, right?"

As they talked, the two returned to the entrance of the mushroom cave, and Victor immediately asked:

"Do you know which road to follow to find the materials we need?"

As he spoke, Victor took out a black scroll and handed it to Laura.

Laura stiffly reached out and took the scroll to examine it carefully.

At that moment, Viktor used the dim light cast from the cave entrance to examine the senior student and realized that her hair was also black.

Moreover, aside from Laura's ashen complexion, the other woman was actually quite beautiful, and seemed to have mixed Eastern and Western heritage, giving her a unique kind of beauty.

"Um......"

Laura seemed to have adapted to the mind connection, and her musings began to be done in her mind, making them audible to Victor.

She frowned slightly, then relaxed her brows: "I do know the location of the materials here, but some of them are not easy to obtain."

Viktor's eyes lit up; he hadn't expected the senior student to be so talented.

For a moment, he could already picture himself quickly and safely collecting the materials and then developing the potion on his own.

To everyone's surprise, Laura suddenly looked up and then gave a serious look:

"Although I don't know who your advisor is, I can't help you cheat no matter what."

"?"

A question mark slowly surfaced in Viktor's mind, and then he couldn't help but laugh.

I never expected my senior to be such a well-behaved student.

But this is fine too.

"It seems that the senior has forgotten what the essence of cultivation is."

He shook his head. "Cultivation is just a process, but what we get is the result of cultivation, which is an improvement in a certain aspect, more or less."

"..."

Laura blinked her big eyes, touched her chin with her little hand, and looked thoughtful.

But her brows had already relaxed.

"That makes sense. Well... this won't happen again."

Her lips didn't move, yet she continued to convey her thoughts through a spiritual connection.

Then, she quickly walked towards the middle passage.

Just as Viktor was about to catch up, he saw that the other person had stopped again.

"What's wrong, Senior Laura?"

In response to Victor's question, Laura slowly turned around and spoke with a serious expression:

"There's a long road ahead without any light. Could you... light my way? Or, come closer to me?"
