Reject me, you damn woman.

Historia agreed with both hands.

"May I?"

Compared to Historia, whose emotions were written all over her face, Elena's first reaction was to worry about Lin En.

"The Holy Test Space should be a very confidential matter. Is it really okay for Xia and I to observe it as well?"

Lin En smiled and was about to signal the latter to be relieved, but Novi spoke first:

"Stop saying that,"

The girl had a cold face, her eyes were not focused on the two people, she turned her head and said coldly:

"You normally wouldn't be qualified, but now you are my brother's approved guests. Forget about that red-haired idiot. You always belittle yourself. Are you saying that my brother has problems with his ability to judge people?"

"Hey, who are you calling an idiot, Miss Fish?"

"Your Highness Novi, that's not what I meant,"

Elena waved her hand and looked at Lin En:

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."

Lynn just smiled and nodded.

When Lin En first came into contact with Elena, he thought that she was the kind of mortal protagonist who liked to play the pig and eat the tiger, but as they spent more time together, Lin En discovered that he had actually misunderstood Elena.

When the mortal protagonist says that he is not good enough, he is just pretending and waiting for the villain to come and slap him in the face. But Elena is different. When she says that she is not good enough, she really feels that she is not good enough. To put it bluntly, she lacks confidence. There is nothing she can do about it because it is a result of her living environment since childhood.

This is the opposite of Historia, who is always pampered and full of confidence.

The stronger the heroines are, the more benefits they will gain when they refuse. In a sense, helping them become stronger is also helping Lin En himself.

It seems that my next step is to properly guide Elena to express herself more, and the best way to help her gain confidence is to give her a sense of satisfaction.

I don’t know what Elena wants most now, and whether I can help her get it with my ability.

"Is there anything you want, Elena?"

Lynn suddenly asked.

"Hey, why do you ask this question?"

"Haha, I'm just asking casually. Besides, maybe I'll need Miss Elena's help later, so it's only right to ask about the price in advance."

Lynn narrowed his eyes meaningfully.

This sentence was both a sincere question and a test. Lin En believed that if it was Elena, she would be able to understand the hint.

Sure enough, Elena pursed her lips tightly.

Sure enough... Lin En has "seen" my ability, the ability to "listen to everything"...

No, if it was Lin En, it would be only a matter of time before he saw through it, but he would probably prefer me to say it out loud.

As for what I want...

Elena subconsciously glanced at Lin En, then quickly looked away, lowered her head, and twisted her ten bare fingers together. After a moment of silence, she suddenly remembered something and lifted the hair by her ear, revealing her white, slightly red, delicate earlobe, and smiled:

"Thank you, Lin En. I am very happy to have met you all and live the life I have now..."

She raised her head and smiled brightly:

"It would be my honor if I could use that ability to help Lin En!"

"Woo woo woo, Xiao Ai!"

Historia was so moved that she threw herself into her friend's arms, but Lin En had a headache.

Although it was great to be able to get Elena's ability for free without paying any price, it seemed that his own problem was being avoided so easily.

As for Novi, who was standing aside, he looked at the three of them, as if he was thinking about something. Then, he looked at Elena with a look that revealed a hint of hostility.

When facing people other than Lin En, the girl's emotional intelligence and EQ are quite high.

Ask for what you want, what are you looking at my brother for?!

Soon, the group returned to the ballroom. The elite Shadow Knights had blocked the place and prohibited anyone from entering or leaving. However, when they saw that the person walking in front was actually Lin En, they simply bowed and saluted without stopping anyone.

However, it actually didn't matter whether anyone tried to stop them or not, because Lin En actually discovered that outside the ballroom, a layer of red barrier was surrounding the place. It was the red dragon city-level protective barrier of the Empress Mother.

Mordiana was already dead, but she still wanted to keep the barrier open, obviously not wanting outsiders to discover what was going on. With the remaining protection from the Empress mother, the barrier naturally could not stop Lin En.

He casually opened the barrier and the group walked in.

Lynn glanced at it and immediately frowned. Thanks to Quinn, he still underestimated the seriousness of the matter.

At this moment, in the hall, almost all the high-ranking officials of the empire whom the Empress Mother could trust and summon at once were here.

In addition to the Empress herself and Grand Duke Reinhardt who had just made a great contribution, Quinn who was yawning boredly in the corner, and the Red Dragon Legion Commander Hilta were also here. In addition, Lin En also saw several old men with serious faces and wearing sacrificial robes.

Lin En recognized that they were the high priests and others in the palace. According to the customs of the empire, these priests were the ones who were originally responsible for presiding over and maintaining the holy test.

But at this moment, these old guys, who usually always looked calm and as if they had no desires or requests, were kneeling on the ground in fear, with beads of sweat on their foreheads.

Lynn needed no introduction as he noticed the blazing white ball of light in the center of the hall.

Because that thing was so conspicuous, a ball of light the size of a basketball was suspended in the dance floor, emitting terrifying light and heat. At the same time, there seemed to be tiny black cracks spreading from it. It was a sign that a high-level space technique was about to collapse.

The holy test space is not just about to explode, it has already started to explode!

Only with the help of these long-term priests and the Empress Mother who possesses six kinds of blessings, a delicate and precarious balance has been achieved.

But it is only a matter of time before the distance is breached.

"Lily?"

Linn asked tentatively.

"I, I can't come!"

The palm of his right hand flashed with light, and the heroic girl's equally shocked voice rang in Lin En's mind.

Lily has performed the duties of an administrator in the Holy Test Space for nearly a thousand years. In fact, compared to those priests, Lily is the one who is truly responsible for maintaining the Holy Test Space.

But she hasn't encountered this situation yet.

Lynn was silent for a moment.

"Is it possible that the Holy Test Space has undergone such a change because you left it?"

"Is that right?"

Lily sounded even more shocked than Lynn.

"........"

Lin En was silent for a while, and finally decided not to tell this possibility to anyone.

The existence of the Holy Test Space is certainly very important. However, if the premise of its existence is that Lily will imprison herself forever, forever accompanied by darkness and loneliness in the space, then this space might as well not exist.

Even without the holy test space, he can still revitalize the purple gold flower.

"No, Lin En, it's not because of my departure that the changes in the Holy Test space are due to other reasons!"

At this moment, Lily suddenly said.

"Oh, can you tell me more about it?"

Lily paused, as if she was organizing her words:

"When I was still alive, I found an elven wizard who was extremely good at space magic and illusion magic to help me build the Holy Trial Space. I also worried about what to do if one day due to some unexpected events, my soul could no longer manage the space."

"So from the very beginning of the design of this space, my role as the administrator was just to assist. Even if we lose the administrator, the Holy Test Space can still operate on its own."

Lynn frowned:

"You mean, the problem with the Holy Test Space right now is not because of its operation, but... it is trying to break through itself?!"

Lily's voice was also a little solemn:

"Although it sounds incredible, this may be the only explanation."

"Your Highness Lin En, are you listening?"

At this moment, a somewhat unhappy voice suddenly interrupted the two people's riddle. It was the Red Dragon Legion's commander, Hilta. At this moment, his eyes hidden under his helmet were fixed on Elena and the others:

"The Holy Test Space is the biggest secret of the Purple Gold Flower. Is it a bit inappropriate to let a few outsiders come into contact with the Holy Test Space?"

Just as Lin En was about to speak, it was Alina who took the initiative to step forward, bowed and spoke:

"Your Majesty, please don't blame His Highness Lin En. It's only because I have a special talent that His Highness Lin En thought might be useful at this time that he brought us here."

"Oh, is that Elena?"

The empress, who had originally focused all her attention on the holy test space, turned around and found that it was Elena. She couldn't help but look at the girl a few more times.

"It is I, Your Majesty!"

Elena was a little flattered that the empress still remembered her.

"I can vouch for Elena."

Lin En still didn't have a good face towards the Queen Mother, but he also said lightly.

"I can do that too!"

Quinn raised her hand from a distance, looking like she was watching the fun.

Commander Hilta wanted to continue speaking, but the Queen just raised her hand:

"That's right."

"His Majesty!"

Hilta was a little shocked.

"Sir Hilta,"

The empress did not even turn her head.

"You also know that the Holy Test Space is one of the foundations of the empire. In order to maintain the empire, I can pay any price and make any attempt. Therefore, unless you have a way to solve the current problem, don't persuade me anymore."

Soon, Elena arrived next to the holy test space.

Feeling the enormous power within it, the girl swallowed.

After discovering her ability, she listened to many things, and relying on this ability, she became an arcanist and even became a disciple of Master Holly.

But this is the first time to hear a treasure of this level in the Holy Test Space.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here even if you fail."

At this moment, Lin En's calm voice suddenly sounded in the girl's ears.

Is that right?

The girl smiled brightly.

Then there is nothing to be afraid of.

Close your eyes slightly,

Let’s… begin!

First, inject magic power into your fingertips.

Then spread it out!

Imagine that magic is an extension of yourself, to entangle, to touch, to understand what you want to listen to.

The girl had a serious expression and pursed her lips.

In fact, although few people in the entire hall believed in her, Elena knew from the beginning that she would not fail.

Because, rather than saying this ability is Elena’s “talent”, it is better to say that it is her “power”.

She was not negotiating or requesting, but "commanding" everything to be heard by her!

No living being, not even an inanimate being, can resist a girl.

Even the secret treasures created by the hidden arcanist who reached the pinnacle of arcane arts thousands of years ago are no exception!

The white light and magic power were responded to, and the girl's eyes widened.
