Elden Ring, my witch is a talkative beautiful girl

A Tui, who was caught in the middle, was overwhelmed. Before the verbal conflict between Melina and Lani turned into a fight between women, he raised his hands to stop the quarrel between the two children.

"We still have important things to do, remember?" Ah Tui tried his best to look stern and pretend to be angry. The witch and the Dark Moon Princess avoided looking at him guiltily.

When the argument gets heated, no one wants to show weakness and give in first. But after calming down, I think it was really childish.

"That's right." Ah Tui was very satisfied with the deterrent effect. He finally managed to hold the situation back from getting out of control. "Regarding the next mission, could you please tell me in detail, Lani?"

The original plan was for them to rush directly to the site of the meteorite crash after finishing the matter with Gaileed and catch up with Blaze who had gone ahead, but they received a call from Iggy on the way, informing them to go to Kalia Castle first to meet Lani.

Since the nominal boss had spoken, they used the blessing to teleport to the vicinity of the city, and then rode over on horseback.

Lani took a sip of water to moisten her throat and replied, "Blazer has already completed the initial reconnaissance mission for the Eternal City. The location is in the western part of Ningerfurm, beneath the deep crater created by the meteorite crash."

"Shall we set off now?" asked Ah Tui.

"Don't worry. I didn't call you back just to say these words." Lani pressed her four hands together, signaling him to listen before leaving. "Blazer has other important matters to attend to. Considering your lack of a qualified guide, I will make an exception this time and go with you to ensure that our target is not lost."

She stood up from the throne and lowered the wide brim of her hat with one hand to hide the sly smile at the corner of her mouth.

"Huh? You want to come with us?" Melina's face was filled with reluctance. "With three people on horseback, Torret will definitely be overloaded. You'd better stay home and communicate with us remotely."

"Really? Could it be that the legendary spirit horse can't run just because of the weight of a weak woman like me?" Lani returned her gaze to the Fader. "Atai, you're Torret's master. Do you think it can carry the three of us at once?"

"Let me think about it." Upon hearing this, Ah Tui seriously calculated the possibility of carrying three people on one horse. "If it's someone of Blaze's size, or a warrior wearing armor, it would probably be difficult. But a mage like Lani shouldn't have any problem, because Ah Mei is very light, it will just be a little crowded."

"What do you mean because I'm light?" Melina protested.

"It's very light, it is. Look, just like this." Without saying anything, Ah Tui held the witch's flexible waist with one hand and lifted her up steadily. "I can hold you with one hand. With this weight, Torrett should have no problem running. At worst, I can reward him with a little more later."

Ah Tui put Melina back on the ground. The witch was startled by his sudden intimate behavior. She just reacted at this moment and turned her head away with a red face: "Don't... don't scare me suddenly. Say hello to me before doing this kind of action next time."

"I'm sorry for scaring you. I just wanted to prove to you, Amei, that you are really light." Atai apologized foolishly, and Lani rolled her eyes at the side.

Melina stamped her foot in frustration. "Forget it, this won't happen again. It's fine if you say so, but don't blame me for not warning that certain nerdy girl." She lowered her eyelids and made a face at Lani. "Torret doesn't like strangers, so be careful. Don't get kicked several meters away by one of its hooves before you even get on your horse."

"Don't worry about that. We in the Kalia royal family know a thing or two about animal taming." Lani made a noise to attract attention, and the floor-to-ceiling windows of the observatory opened wide. "I'll go ahead and communicate with Torrett. You can all take your time to climb down the stairs."

She shook off her snow witch skirt and floated down the tower lightly and effortlessly like a soul jellyfish.

"That's a clever use of the idea." Ah Ti nodded thoughtfully. "Using gravity magic to reduce your own weight, you can't fly, but you can use it to glide. How much concentration would it take to float down from this height?"

"Don't worry about how much concentration it will take to float down." Melina excitedly grabbed Atei's arm and pulled him along as she ran away. "I can't wait to see her get kicked away by Torret. If you go too late, you won't be able to see it."

Before she met A-Tu, she was bored most of the time when she was with Lingma, so she spent a lot of time doing unnecessary things.

For example, teach it a series of self-defense measures to prevent it from being abducted when it is alone (basically impossible unless the whistle is stolen).

She didn't expect that all those boring efforts would come in handy at this time. She just deliberately provoked Lani and set a trap for her, waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

"Amei, watch your step and run slower." Ah Dai was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He couldn't understand why his partner became so childish when Lani was involved.

He didn't think there was any possibility that Lani would be kicked away by the spirit horse.

To be honest, with Torret's not-so-smart IQ and greedy personality, he was at the mercy of the shrewd Dark Moon Princess.

And Melina seemed to have forgotten one thing, that Lanie had a dragon as a guard knight.

(P.S. Ding ding ding ~ Ding ding ~ Lani has temporarily joined the team!)

Volume 2: The Flowing Stars: Chapter 79: The Sword of Li and Pu

As Atie expected, when Melina pulled him all the way to the bottom of the tower, instead of seeing Torret beating Lani violently, the two sides got along extremely harmoniously.

Harmony was reached, and the favorability of the spirit horse had risen to over eighty. It had allowed /Q*un（三）俬零7爾二罒紦Silani to caress its head at will, revealing an expression of great enjoyment.

In front of Torrett, there were various dried fruits with three-digit basic measurement units, including the ubiquitous Roya dried fruits, most of the sweet wine dried fruits, and a small amount of extremely rare cold dried fruits.

This is something that is difficult to buy even in the royal city of Rodel. It can be said to be the best among dried fruits. When you take a bite, it is sweet and cool, and it is icy and refreshing. Even the horses who have eaten it say it is delicious.

Torrett buried himself in the mountain of dried fruits, enjoying an unprecedented sense of happiness, and didn't care who provided the feed.

"Torret! You traitor!" Melina walked forward angrily, pulled Torret's ear and pulled him away from the pile of dried fruits. "What did I teach you before? How can you just eat food given by strangers?"

Torret lowered his head and flicked his tail. "Nah—(I didn't want to, but she gave me too much dried fruit.)"

Under the Dark Moon Princess's offensive power, Torret's dignity lasted less than three minutes before he surrendered to the fruit feast.

And strictly speaking, Lani is not a stranger.

Apart from the two times they had met before, Torret's first master had a pretty good relationship with the Dark Moon Princess. The two sides had had a series of simple exchanges on magic, and she had also ridden a spirit horse before.

Otherwise, Lani would not have taken the initiative to ask about Torret's situation when she met Ati for the first time.

Ah Tu shook his head and laughed: "It's pretty much what I expected. You know that Torrett likes this, right?"

"You can't just eat anything of unknown origin." Melina was furious when she saw Lani chuckling smugly. She continued to lecture the spirit horse, "What if someone eats something poisonous? Who will be held responsible if something goes wrong?"

"Whee-Whee—(I am a spirit horse. Even if I am poisoned, I will not die. I can come back to life by drinking a sip of Red Drops.)"

"You glutton, why are you so proud instead of reflecting on your mistakes?" Melina jumped onto the horse, fixed its neck with both arms, and performed a cross-fixing stranglehold.

This round of punitive measures that add fuel to the fire and bring suffering upon oneself seems unlikely to end anytime soon.

"Are you guys always this noisy?" Infected by the lively atmosphere, Lani's smile brightened with genuine joy. "It's not what I expected. It's really... quite interesting."

Ah Tui shrugged. "Usually, Ah Mei would just say a few words, but rarely would she actually do anything. Maybe it's because Torrett was so nice to you, and she's a little bothered by it, right?"

It was impossible for the witch to really strangle the spirit horse, so she was still measured in her actions. A'ti ignored Torret's pitiful look and was too lazy to intervene and act as a peacemaker.

"Oh? You're just bothered by Torret's overly nice attitude towards me?" Lani twisted her twenty fingers together, beginning to understand Melina's usual mood. A certain block of wood was truly unyielding. "Never mind, let's just leave it at that. Speaking of which, I haven't had time to award you with your rewards since you completed your mission this time, so this royal treasure, the 'Sword of Night and Fire,' is yours."

The Sword of Night and Fire, a legendary weapon treasured by the royal family of Kalia for generations.

It is said that it was created on the top of a snowy mountain by a group of stargazers, the predecessors of magicians.

One side of the sword is inlaid with pyroxene representing star magic, and the other side is inlaid with agate symbolizing the faith in fire. The complex magic patterns engraved on it are enough to make an ordinary magician faint on the spot at just one glance.

Only those who stand at the pinnacle of magic can carve 108 complementary magic array seals on the thin and narrow sword.

If the "Famous Sword Yueyin" was forged from a single piece of pyroxene by the Kalia blacksmiths with their constant pursuit of perfection, and could be considered the pinnacle of blacksmithing, then the "Sword of Night and Fire" was a masterpiece of magical skill, a flawless and perfect work of art.

Ah Tui's intelligence was so high that it was almost beyond the reach of a warrior. After seeing the Sword of Night and Fire, he immediately realized how valuable this weapon was. So, he once again accurately avoided the correct answer: "The armor and Yueyin you gave me are already treasures. This legendary weapon cannot be..."

"Take it! Take it!" Lani interrupted him with a smile and emphasized her tone. "I never take back what I give away. Do you want to refuse my gift and bring shame to Witch Lani? Hmm?"

This heavy "hmm" is meaningful, meant to remind A'tai not to repeat the mistakes of the past.

Speaking of this, Ah Dai put on the Sword of Night and Fire like a ptsd, and took one step closer to becoming a true humanoid arsenal.

Lani was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she still had to keep an elegant and decent smile on her face.

Others dream of getting and fighting to own a legendary weapon or magical item, but now that it's in my hands, I can't even give it away and have to resort to threats every time.

"What are you guys doing? Wow, the blue-skinned girl dropped some new gear again?" Melina finished scolding Torret and confiscated his dried fruit mountain. She glanced over, her eyes glued to the Sword of Night and Fire. "This thing looks just as good as the Moon Hidden Sword. Partner, come and try it out and see if it's any better."

"The method for performing this sword skill is the same as Comet Azrael's. Both require a brief period of accumulating power." Lani pointed to the empty valley. "If you want to try it, cast the spell in this direction. I haven't seen the Night and Fire Sword's skills in years."

Seeing that both of them wanted him to try out their weapons, Ah Tui nodded, raised his sword parallel to the ground, and infused it with magic power to awaken the runes engraved on the sword.

Combat skills, Dark Comet!

With the input of magic power, the violent energy was transformed and sublimated many times, converging on the tip of the sword.

"Beep-boom!"

A beam of high-temperature energy burst out in an instant, scorching the air, melting the rocks, piercing the mountain, and creating a large hole with a radius of more than ten meters on the mountain wall.

"I originally thought that the famous sword Yue Xiduan was outrageous..."

"I didn't expect this sword to be even more outrageous..."

A Tui and Melina swallowed their saliva at the same time.

How could this be the "Sword of Night and Fire"? It was clearly the "Sword of Outrageousness and Speculation" that opened the door to outrageousness with outrageous power!

Aside from being inferior in range, the sword's body accumulates magical energy, thereby amplifying the power of the released beam to surpass even Comet Azler's, and its energy consumption is more than half as low.

Furthermore, a sword with a fire-attributed agate stone attached is also a good choice for barbecuing and warming up. It is a must-have tool for killing and robbing, as well as traveling.

Now "Beichen Tianlang Blade" and "Fire Joy" are all complete.

Volume 2: The Flowing Stars: Chapter 80 The Librarian Goes Crazy!

Under the clear sky, the air at Lake Lienya is as moist and fresh as ever.

The overloaded but not overweight trio, starting from Lani who was sitting at the back, Ati in the middle, and Melina in the front, dismounted one by one and walked to the door of their temporary destination.

Because the temporary boss suggested taking a detour, the two employees did as she asked.

Having just gotten a legendary weapon from a rich woman, the witch felt embarrassed to go against the tycoon for the sake of the Sword of Night and Fire.

At the wooden door of the study, Ah Tui cast a questioning look at Lani: "Where is this?"

Ranie straightened the brim of her hat, which had been blown askew by the wind, and squinted her eyes as she replied, "Kalia's Study. I need to come here to pick something up before heading to the Eternal City. I've assigned someone to guard this place, so it won't take too long to get in."

The magic key was inserted into the tightly fitting hole, and the door of Kalia's study slowly opened inward, revealing a circular library built around a central column.

A wide variety of books are placed on bookshelves that span more than ten floors, and the crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling emit soft light that illuminates every corner of the study.

"So many books?" Melina looked around. "It looks like there are many more books than in the Magic Academy's library."

"The Great Library of Rhea Lukalia contains only books related to magic," Lani replied calmly. "And this is the Royal Library, painstakingly built by generations of the Kalia royal family. In addition to the treasured Kalia secrets, it also contains legends, history, literature, and art from across the borderlands. There are over a hundred thousand books stored here."

In terms of the richness of its book collection, Kalia's library would be ranked first in the border area. Only the Kalia royal family, who came from a magical family, would have enough financial resources and interest to collect so many paper books.

"Miriam, come out and see me."

Lani's cold shout echoed in the study for a long time, but the person she called did not come out to receive the guest.

"Miriam, come out and see me!"

Lani raised her voice and shouted again, but still no one showed up. The situation became a little tricky.

Melina asked, "Not many people come here all year. Did the security guard you assigned to the library skip work?"

It's not uncommon for the boss to find an employee in a leisure position slacking off during a checkup. The employee works as a security guard and librarian in the study, and it's a position that looks very idle.

The possibility of librarians themselves becoming books is also not ruled out.

Lani felt a little embarrassed by her subordinates' lack of respect.

Just as she raised her right hands slightly, preparing to try a more effective way to call someone, a sharp sound of breaking through the air came from the other side of the circular corridor of the study, and a deep blue light occupied the entire field of vision of Princess Dark Moon.

The long-range magic attack that came from her own territory made Lani stunned for a moment, but the remaining reaction time was still enough for her to cast "Dark Moon" to eliminate the attack from unknown source.

Before she could act, there was someone who was faster than her and more adapted to dealing with sudden attacks.

Fighting skills, Kalia returns!

The glow shield repelled the ultra-long-range magic attack, and Atai diligently performed his duty as a guard.

A dog in the wild on the roadside might come up and bite him, so he has developed a conditioned reflex.

The slight tension that had risen between Lani's brows disappeared with the back of the person standing in front of her. She had been acting alone for too long and had forgotten the sense of security that could only be experienced when being protected by someone.

Because of the distance, Kalia's counterattack with the catapult dissipated halfway due to exhaustion of energy.

In a split second of contact, A'tai recognized the magic cast by the attacker.

Although its power was less than 50% of that of the original owner's own hand-casting, the shape, the light, and the terrifying sniping distance were undoubtedly the magic "Loretta's Longbow".

Before he could think further, the second attack followed, and the attacker seemed determined to achieve his goal.

Pray, Golden Tree Shield!

The coordination was flawless. Melina filled in and blocked Loretta's second longbow shot. "What's going on? Your enemy is ambushing you. They're coming to kill you."

After blocking the second wave of attack, the three took advantage of the gap to hide in the blind spot under the corridor wall.

"Iggy and I are the only ones who have the key to the study from the outside. It's impossible for a third person to enter here without my knowledge."

Lani thought of the only possibility, and the identity of the attacker was about to be revealed, "The person who attacked us... is Miriam!"

He possessed the superior Kalia magic and launched a surprise attack from the study. There was no other possibility except the librarian who was already in the library.

But the question is, why would she attack her own boss when she has nothing better to do?

"Are you kidding me? Why are the guards you arranged attacking us? Are your men going to rise up and overthrow the enemy?" Melina was shocked. This was different from what we agreed.

Why do I always get targeted every time I enter the library?

"If you want to know, why not ask the person himself?" A Tu suggested.

Melina said humiliatedly, "My dear, normally someone who intends to rebel wouldn't reveal their reasons, right?"

"How do you know if you don't try?" With the mentality that a try wouldn't hurt, Ah Tui shifted sideways, cautiously poked his head out, and shouted, "Miriam, we're not hostile, why are you attacking us?"

The Faded One's roar echoed in the study.
