Magic High School.

Li Ge: "?"

Why do you have this hairstyle?

Chapter 205 Exchanging Rings

She seemed to merely roll her eyes, her gaze carrying three parts disdain and seven parts of doting affection, as if she were looking at her silly son.

"The food is ready, let's eat." Luan Poye didn't explain any further, although she now felt quite comfortable with this hairstyle where her long hair was braided into pigtails and then draped over her chest.

She used to like high ponytails because they were convenient, but that hairstyle had many problems. The biggest problem was that it would shift the center of gravity of the head backward, which would be a real problem in high-speed combat. She was thinking of cutting her hair and getting a buzz cut, which would be more convenient for fighting.

But for now, let's keep a little bit.

The meal was ready. Although it wasn't particularly delicious and was just typical home cooking, Li Ge ate as if she were watching a live stream, glancing at the university across the street.

Those vibrant young men and women, those young men and women who seemed to be exuding hormones at all times, and that loser who seemed to want to get praise from another girl in a white dress because of his excellent performance in shooting class.

Unfortunately, the guy seemed to have given several hints, but the girl just smiled and didn't say anything.

Until school was over, the boy silently carried his schoolbag and slowly walked away from the school gate.

Li Ge silently ate a mouthful of rice, watching the boy who had created something in his field leave in such a miserable way, not even coming over to play a few rounds of StarCraft today.

He didn't know why he created such a child. This world was entirely created by his subconscious. And looking at that little devil, for some reason, he always felt like an old man reminiscing about the past.

"That kid was ignored again, or rather, he was actually bullied? It seems like not many people in the whole class are willing to talk to him," Li Ge said, silently taking a bite of rice and watching the loser's figure disappear into the distance after crossing the intersection.

"Yeah, it seems like he doesn't have any male friends. The only one he can talk to is a very pretty girl, not the one in the white dress, but another one..." Ranpo Ye added, seemingly enjoying watching the melodramatic stories of the high school boys and girls across the street.

Looking at the high school across the street, it felt like watching a long-running short drama about high school romance.

"That's so unlucky, I really am a devil." Li Ge laughed wickedly, shoveling rice into his mouth. He looked back at the school and seemed to see the goddess that the loser liked, the girl in the white dress, talking to another rich young man.

He seemed to see the group discussing where to go to see a movie and whether or not to bring that loser along.

There's an NTR element? Li Ge immediately started watching more intently, but also smiled. This probably doesn't count as a NTR relationship, just a melodramatic love triangle.

Okay, it doesn't even qualify as a melodramatic love triangle; it's more like a melodramatic unrequited love.

After putting down her chopsticks, Li Ge said, "I'm full."

Li Ge was preparing to go out for a stroll, or perhaps after school, she would go alone to the deserted playground, take a basketball or a high jump bar, and try her hand at high jump, or perhaps just run freely on the basketball court.

For him now, let alone dunking, he can even jump to a height of about five stories.

"Wait a minute." Luan Poye said, making Li Ge sit up obediently. Then he reached out and put his hand next to Li Ge's lips, and silently removed a grain of rice stuck to the corner of his mouth.

“Honestly, I’ll be laughed at if I go out like this,” she said, then continued, “Hold out your hand.”

"Left hand or right hand?"

"Left hand."

“Okay.” Li Ge silently extended her left hand, and then her hand was taken by hers. Then, Li Ge felt a ring being slowly put on her ring finger.

"This……"

“You gave me a ring before, and this is my response.” She smiled, then took out another ring, a very simple one, seemingly made of silver, and said, “Now, could you help me put it on again?”

"alright."

Li Ge didn't say much. Anyway, it wasn't the first time. He seemed to have regained his sense of rhythm. He coughed, slowly took Luan Poye's left hand, and seemed to recall his state at the time. He slowly put the silver ring on her hand and said the words he had said back then.

Goodnight, night.

The silver ring was placed on her ring finger, and she happily took Li Ge's hands in her own and placed them on her face.

"This is a teleportation ring. When you need me, just inject your spiritual energy into it to activate the teleportation spell, and I can instantly appear beside you. Similarly, when I need you, I can trigger this teleportation to bring you here."

She smiled and explained how this thing worked.

Li Ge paused for a moment, then immediately said, "A very useful feature."

Li Ge was slightly surprised. He didn't know if this function could actually be used in reality, but it was clearly very useful.

The once clear sky seemed to quickly turn into a light drizzle.

In Li Ge's memory, it would rain for an entire spring in her hometown. Her elders said that it was called the plum rain season, which lasted for more than two months with almost no sunny days.

In the summer, after the rainy season has finally passed, we will be greeted by a long period of weather lasting several months, with typhoons frequently visiting.

So in Li Ge's memory, it seemed like it was always raining in this city, drizzling. She had heard people say that this was what the water towns of Jiangnan were like, and that's what made them look like.

The two leaned against each other, watching a mindless short drama on TV.

This television is like a device connecting the surface world and the inner world, displaying all sorts of nonsensical short stories from the inner world, which can also be described as the paradise of the Thousand-Faced Liu Ruyan.

Actually, if you set aside your brain, ignore logic, and aren't the main character, these Akaishi tales are quite entertaining.

And so it seemed, I drifted off to sleep.

Li Ge closed her eyes, and the small house in front of her suddenly disappeared. When she opened her eyes, she saw the familiar ceiling of the medical department, the IV drip filled with huge spiritual particles in her hand, the dim yellow sky, and Xiao Ye, who seemed to be sleeping on the table next to her.

"You're awake?" Xiaoye seemed to have just woken up as well. She looked at the IV drip and said, "Liquid psychic energy saturation solution, specially formulated for situations like yours where psychic energy is depleted, to quickly replenish psychic energy. You look much better now, right?"

"Well, I've basically recovered from the overdraft of my spiritual energy. You don't need to take care of me anymore. It was just an overdraft, not a fatal injury." Li Ge threw off the blanket, lifted the coffin lid, and stretched her body.

The replenishment of psionic energy quickly restored him to full health. Apart from some muscle soreness, he was otherwise fine. The muscle problem would probably be resolved by tomorrow. For them, their recovery ability far surpassed that of ordinary people.

"Alright, let's go back then." Xiaoye didn't explain or argue much. She just stood up silently, like spoiling her complaining silly son, stretched, and briefly revealed her toned abs before slowly leaving.

She didn't even notice the red marks on her face from sleeping on her sleeve.

Li Ge also put on the mask. This time, he controlled it, slightly adjusting the appearance of the clown mask until it became a locust-faced mask like a Kamen Rider before leaving.

The medical staff are very busy; they seem to be in a constant rush every day.

Li Ge seemed to see the senior student who had gone on a mission with her when investigating Kawi. It seemed that she had been promoted to a full-fledged nurse in the medical department. Although she was very busy with work, she would still look in the direction of her former ward from time to time.

The head nurse, a banshee who also belonged to the necromancer faction, was extremely busy, her battle cries seemingly filling the entire hall.

Li Ge smiled and left the medical department. It was already completely dark outside. Xiao Ye seemed to have slowed down and was waiting for him. The ring on her hand reflected the bright lights at the entrance of the medical department.

Li Ge wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Xiao Ye's ring seemed to have changed. It was no longer the silver ring he had put on her before, but seemed to be something like... a ring that could be passed between people?

Just as Li Ge was a little confused and was about to open his Lion's Eyes to take a closer look, Xiao Ye said, "I think I've reached the Quasi-Legendary level... and in terms of my domain, it seems I've made another step forward. Do you want to practice with me? Just like you did before, keep applying pressure to my domain, and maybe I can successfully complete the domain expansion."

Li Ge: "?"

He immediately forgot about the ring and was utterly shocked by Xiaoye's words.

What do you mean, "You're already thinking about starting to expand your domain"?

Dude, how many days have you even been in this field?

At this moment, Li Ge finally had a sense of déjà vu, as if Abaddon was looking at him. He looked at Xiao Ye just like Abaddon looked at him.

Hello, is this the mental hospital under the medical department? I suspect there's a hidden lunatic here. Just how crazy is she to have such outrageous talent in this field?

Li Ge thought to herself, "That's what I'm complaining about."

However, he did not refuse Xiaoye's request. After all, just as Abaddon had been constantly demonstrating the expansion of the domain to Li Ge, and even taking him to participate in a collision between the domain and the world, Li Ge gradually went further and further in the domain.

Now, it's just a role reversal; Li Ge has become like Abaddon before.

“Okay.” Li Ge said, and the two went to the training ground together to prepare for a duo match. However, this duo match was competitive, and Li Ge would be the enemy for several domain-level teaching matches.

Perhaps after a few more attempts, with Xiaoye's talent, she will soon be able to fully develop her domain.

……

Meanwhile, Yilian returned here with a small bag, to this bay, and to this small fishing village.

This is the homeland of the Morphlings, and also the world where other elemental spirits were born.

He took a deep breath, as if making a decision, and stepped inside.

Chapter 206 Pursuing Their Own Lives

After leaving the training ground, Li Ge and Xiao Ye both had mixed feelings.

Li Ge's complex feelings stemmed from the fact that he discovered Xiao Ye's domain was already quite complete, belonging to a state similar to that of the time period after he witnessed Abaddon's collision with the world's consciousness.

Perhaps due to some opportunity, or perhaps through multiple collisions and resonances within the Li Ge domain, the domain might be launched at any time.

This progress is so exaggerated it's frightening... Li Ge even suspects that she may have completely inherited Luan Po Ye's legacy, including the prototype of Luan Po Ye's domain, in order to achieve such progress.

However, Xiaoye's feelings were complicated because she thought she could unleash her domain today. In her perception, this domain was about to overflow, as if as long as that membrane was broken, it would instantly overflow and completely unleash its own domain.

But that membrane just wouldn't break, no matter how much pressure Li Ge exerted from his domain, and even though Li Ge had just recovered a little, he almost collapsed again.

It felt like I was about to break through that membrane, but as soon as I touched it, I retreated.

"Wait a moment, wait a few days, don't panic. You're just a little short of it. Don't rush. I only managed to activate my domain after encountering life-threatening danger and the pressure from another person's domain going berserk. So you can't rush this." Li Ge said, slightly out of breath.

It would be best to wait a few days until he recovers, and then have a few more clashes between domains. Li Ge felt that it should be about time.

"Okay." Xiaoye sighed as well. This thin veil, like a window paper, might have to be broken through later.

"I'm really not doing well anymore, I'll go back and rest first..." Li Ge said, feeling that he was truly exhausted and had no spiritual energy left.

The previous seven consecutive domain expansions had drained him so much that he felt like a dried-up human. He even felt that his psionic energy at that time was not as good as that of an ordinary person before he came to the school.

After recovering a little, he was immediately drained dry by Xiaoye again. He felt that if he used his domain again, he would be lying dead in the medical department again.

Xiaoye nodded and said, "Goodnight, Lige."

"Goodnight, night," Li Ge said reflexively.

The two parted ways, and then Li Ge was stunned for a moment.

This sentence should have been said to Ranpo Ye, but I just blurted it out without thinking.

"Never mind, 'night' is still night, it makes no difference. Since things have come to this, I should go to sleep first." Li Ge thought to herself, slightly raising her left hand to look at the latest message that had just been sent.

The salary for the mission from the execution department has arrived. Li Ge hummed a little tune. If things continue like this, in a while he will be able to buy a new set of magical artifacts, or upgrade some of his previous treasures.

Buying and upgrading equipment is what makes him happiest.

At the same time, Li Ge noticed that she had a lot of accessories on her left hand: a wristwatch, a pass-through ring on her ring finger, and a storage ring on her middle finger.

"To be honest, rings are really convenient as magical devices. You can even wear more than ten without any problems." Li Ge gently stroked the interlocking ring on her ring finger, humming the music that still echoed in her mind from her past life, and walked back to her dormitory.

Get a good night's sleep, then go back to your own area and take a look at the school across the street.
