Jobless Reincarnation: Emiya the Great Hero Must Show His True Skills

Loki's adventurer career can be described as a series of disasters.

Even if you occasionally encounter reliable companions or friendly friends, it usually doesn't last long, and you'll soon find yourself alone again.

Loki once complained about her origins, believing that all her misfortunes were due to the Migrud race, and that if it weren't for this race, she wouldn't have suffered so much.

So she completely abandoned her past and tried to gain the approval of others through various means.

To avoid being mistaken for a Sperud, she covered her blue hair with a large hat. Not wanting to be mistaken for a child or looked down upon, she boasted to everyone that she was a genius magician, proficient in all attributes and omnipotent.

Such a clumsy lie will naturally be exposed quickly, but at the same time, Loki will also be forced by insidious and malicious people to solve some impossible problems.

Her tragic adventurer career finally came to an end when she arrived on the Central Continent and went to study at the La Noa Magic University.

At the magic university, she spent four years studying magic. After learning water-level magic from her teacher, Genus, she felt that she had fully matured and surpassed her teacher.

As a result, she argued with her teacher about magic, argued back, and parted ways with her teacher on bad terms, forcing her to start her wandering life alone again.

To survive, she had to choose between becoming an adventurer or finding a job.

Because of her past experiences, she still had some psychological trauma regarding the profession of adventurer, so she chose to come to the territory of Fituia to find some magic-related work, and by chance met Senis, who came to look for a tutor, and successfully got the job of a magic teacher.

Loki didn't have high expectations for becoming a magic teacher for children.

She had seen too many so-called magical geniuses at the magic university, most of whom were just mediocre, lacking both the mindset to seek magic at all costs and the will to strive to become stronger.

Most people learn magic simply because they are aimless and hope to gain attention from others and show off their uniqueness.

Loki originally felt that she was different from those people; she believed that only she truly understood the real meaning of learning magic.

That's why she talked back to her teacher and distanced herself from others...

In that almost extreme state of mind, she arrived at the village of Buena and, along with Senis, met the other's two children, Shirou and Rudeus.

After a brief encounter, Lokishi was certain that Rudeus was a true genius.

At only five years old, he was able to use intermediate-level magic without chanting.

Even at La Noah Magic University, this could be considered an unparalleled miracle.

Luo Qixi once believed that her talent was unparalleled, but compared to this, it was like comparing the bright moon to a firefly—the difference was enormous.

Of course, the difference in talent alone wouldn't cause Loki to have any reaction. She had seen too many geniuses in her adventurer career, but those who rely solely on talent could not achieve any great feats or accomplishments. On the contrary, those who lacked talent but did everything they could to make up for their shortcomings and worked hard to the end were the ones who could become truly extraordinary.

Luo Qixi originally believed that this was who she was; she possessed an arrogance that rivaled anyone else's and firmly believed in her uniqueness.

Then she saw Shirou, this boy who, despite having only average talent, was never bound by the barriers of talent and created miracles solely through willpower.

Before meeting Shirou, Lokishi firmly believed that her efforts were no less than anyone else's, and that she had worked hard since childhood to achieve her goals and get to where she is today.

However, after witnessing everything Shirou did, overcoming all difficulties to achieve his goal, Rocchi suddenly realized her own immaturity.

Because he lacked the innate abilities of the Migrud race, he fled the village. Because he was discriminated against because of his appearance, he tried various ways to prove himself. Because he possessed slightly stronger magical talent, he became complacent and even looked down on his mentor...

He spent his whole life running away from and escaping the predicaments he encountered, never truly confronting his weaknesses and flaws.

On the contrary, this boy never felt confused or lost. Despite his immature appearance, he possessed a stronger belief and will than most adults. Even when faced with insurmountable difficulties, he would do everything in his power to try and overcome them completely.

Loki saw her own immaturity completely reflected in Shirou.

Luo Qixi regretted it in that instant. She didn't know what she regretted, but she felt that she had to make amends for her past foolishness.

So for the first time, she disregarded the difference in talent and used all her efforts to teach Shirou magic.

Even if Shirou's magical talent was not outstanding, she was willing to devote all her efforts to imparting all her knowledge and experience to him.

Luo Qixi originally firmly believed that the two could perhaps establish a mutually trusting teacher-student relationship.

Until that night, after that incredibly embarrassing incident, the relationship that should have been built suddenly collapsed...

Chapter 47 This is a feeling that can never be spoken aloud.

Luo Qixi felt she could completely explain why she did that thing that night.

First of all, although Luo Qixi looks like she is only thirteen or fourteen years old, she is actually thirty-eight years old because of her race.

As a real adult, it's perfectly reasonable to do things to relieve one's desires because the nights are too lonely.

Moreover, Paul and Senis were so passionate every night that Rudeus and Shirou, who lived on the first floor, were fine, but Loki, who lived on the second floor, could hear the intense noises coming from their room almost every night. Under such constant turmoil, even the most rational person would lose control.

Although Luo Qixi is an adult, she looks too young and has little actual experience with sexual matters, though she does possess a certain degree of curiosity...

In short, Loki believed that it was perfectly reasonable and without fault that she would spy on Paul and Senis while doing *that* in the hallway that night.

However, although she could make up for it with countless reasons in her mind, in reality, when Loki discovered that Shirou had seen her shameful behavior from beginning to end, her rationality completely collapsed.

If possible, could I just die...?

A deep sense of despair welled up in Luo Qixi's heart, and she desperately hoped that this was just an embarrassing dream she had.

However, reality doesn't disappear just because she tries to escape. When Luo Qixi wakes up, she even wishes she could commit suicide to escape her current situation.

Fortunately, Shirou did not talk about what happened that night, and never even mentioned it.

Although the other party clearly saw his poor performance, Shirou seemed to be deliberately avoiding the topic and trying to make him behave normally, based on his gentle attitude.

Rocky was naturally incredibly grateful to Shirou, even deeply moved.

She naturally hoped to act normally and return to the pure teacher-student relationship she once had, just like before.

However, Loki soon tragically discovered that she seemed unable to treat Shirou as an ordinary student.

It could be because her shameful behavior was witnessed by the other person, causing a psychological change, or it could be that Luo Qixi herself had always been attracted to this overly outstanding boy...

After that, whenever Loki spent time with Shirou, she would always feel a slight flutter in her heart, and even just seeing his face would make her heart race uncontrollably.

Could this be that kind of emotion?

Luo Qixi really didn't want to believe it, but she couldn't help but think about it.

She might have fallen for Shirou.

Throughout her long life, she had rarely felt this way about the opposite sex, and had almost never longed for the opposite sex around her, so she even thought that she would never experience the unique romance of a young girl.

However, now, when facing her student, a boy who has just turned ten, she actually felt the same fluttering emotions as a teenage girl.

Luo Qixi could hardly believe how depraved she was.

If Shirou knew that he was such an immoral teacher, he would surely be utterly disappointed in himself, and even despise someone as shameless as himself.

A deep sense of inferiority arose in Loki's heart, and from that day on, she began to do everything she could to distance herself from Shirou, trying to avoid further contact with him and unable to control her emotions.

This effort was very effective. Loki only maintained basic class time to teach Shirou magic, and kept her distance from him at all other times. In this way, she was finally able to suppress her impulses and control the feelings that should not have appeared in her heart.

Although this made her feel very lonely and increasingly depressed, Loki believed that this was the best outcome.

As long as the superficial teacher-student relationship can be maintained, and I can continue to impart my magic to the boy and help him, that's enough.

However, all of this vanished in that monster hunt.

During the monster hunt, Loki was almost attacked by a monster, but fortunately Shirou intervened in time, drawing his bow and shooting down all the monsters to save her.

At that moment, Luo Qixi felt as if she were witnessing a scene from a dream, and her heart was pounding so fast it felt like it was going to pierce her chest.

She almost entirely suppressed her heartbeat and controlled her overwhelming emotions to maintain her composure and avoid being overwhelmed by her uncontrollable admiration and longing.

That's why Loki realized she couldn't stay with Shirou any longer.

For both Shirou and himself, it's best for their relationship to end here.

Despite the loneliness and indescribable sadness in her heart, Lokishi announced on Shirou and Rudeus's birthday that she would be taking her graduation exams and ending her career as a tutor.

She also recorded all the knowledge she possessed, all the techniques and experiences she could recall, and gave them to Shirou as a gift.

Even if I can't personally teach him this knowledge and skills, I'm sure Shirou will be able to learn something from the notes and become an excellent mage who isn't limited by talent.

The night before her graduation exams, Luo Qixi couldn't sleep well at all.

Every day that had passed felt like chains, trying to bind her to this place. She truly felt a deep sense of reluctance and regret, and did not want to leave this village.

But Luo Qixi overcame her emotions and firmly believed that her choice was the right one.

The next morning, she got up early and went out to take Shirou and Rudeus outside the village for their graduation exam.

"The road is quite long, you two should mount your horses."

Locci is leading her beloved horse Caravaggio.

Shirou and Rudeus exchanged a glance before carefully mounting their horses.

Since there were three people riding together, it was necessary for Loki to control the horse, Rudeus sat in the front, Shirou sat in the middle, and Loki held the reins and sat in the back.

"Oh..."

After the horse started moving, Shirou couldn't help but lean back, revealing a panicked expression.

Seeing the other person's flustered look, Luo Qixi couldn't help but laugh and said, "Shirou, you're actually afraid of horses? I didn't expect you to have something that matches your age."

"..."

Shirou did not respond to Loki's words.

He nervously adjusted his posture, his face slightly flushed.

Chapter 48 Water Saint-Level Magic

Riding on Paolo's beloved horse Caravaggio, Shiro felt extremely nervous, and his entire posture was quite stiff.

Rudius and Locchi thought he was afraid of riding horses, and both gave him tolerant smiles.

But only Shirou himself knew that he wasn't afraid of riding horses, but rather that when he was on horseback, he was almost pressed against Rocchi, which made him feel inexplicably embarrassed.

Especially when he touches a young girl's skin, he always instinctively recalls the scene he witnessed that night outside Paul and Senis's room...

He originally only felt respect for Luo Qixi, but after seeing that scene, he developed a different opinion of her.

Shirou didn't know what kind of emotion he was experiencing.

He simply didn't want to show these emotions on his instinct.

Although he didn't know why, he didn't want to ruin the relationship he and Luo Qixi had already built.

"If you're scared, Shirou, just lean on me."

Seeing Shirou's increasingly nervous expression, Loki smiled and spoke.

Shirou, looking rather helpless, said stiffly, "N-no need. Or rather, it's precisely because we're so close that it's uncomfortable..."

"Ok?"

Upon hearing Shirou's words, Loki looked visibly confused, unable to understand what he meant.

Seeing this, Rudeus couldn't help but laugh and tease, "What? So you're shy, Shirou-nii? You really do have feelings for Ms. Loki!"

"No, not really... probably."

Shirou's answer did not sound very firm.

The main reason was that the scene of Luo Qixi that night kept replaying in his mind, coupled with the soft touch from behind from time to time, which made his heart beat faster.

"Hey, Shirou, are you shy...?"

Upon hearing their conversation, Luo Qixi's lips inexplicably curled into a smile.

She seemed to suddenly become very happy, and couldn't help but let Shirou lean against her.

"To be honest, I've always felt that you, Shirou, are really bad at dealing with girls. If you don't find a way to overcome this, you'll suffer a lot in the future."

"This……"

Shirou couldn't respond, and he felt the back of his head touching Rocchi's slightly protruding chest.

As a result, the person was completely unable to make any movements.

At the same time, Luo Qixi herself was a little shy, but she didn't show any attitude on the surface, appearing calm and composed.

During the process, neither Shirou nor Loki spoke, but Rudeus asked various questions from time to time.

"Teacher, what crops can be harvested from this field?"

"It's mainly Aslan wheat, the raw material for bread, and there should also be a small amount of Battier flowers and vegetables. The Battier flowers will be sent to the capital to be processed into spices. As for the rest, they are all things that are usually served on the dinner table."

"Oh, isn't that a green pepper over there? The one the teacher doesn't dare to eat."

"I...it's not that I'm afraid to eat it, besides, Shirou's green peppers are really delicious..."

Time passed slowly in the midst of simple, casual conversation.

About an hour later, the farmland was no longer visible, and the group arrived at a grassland with nothing in sight.
