Things about the female knight in black stockings

Chapter 51: Encounter difficulties and take a nap

After returning to her dormitory from Tia's room, Valencia has been reading the information, trying to find a way to crack Hagakure's technique.

Although Valencia won the duel in the afternoon, it was just a duel... If it was a battle of life and death, it would probably have a different outcome.

For example, the poison quenched by Chiba on the ninja tanto does not only enhance the sense of pain, but also seals the throat when blood is seen.

Although Centifolia has not yet reached that point, female brats are full of bad intentions, so Valencia must take precautions and be prepared.

But the more she looked through the information and recalled the details of the afternoon duel, the more Valensa felt that Hagakure's technique was indeed very powerful.

No matter how strong your eyesight is, you won't be able to detect anything unusual, it won't leave any traces, it won't affect the airflow, light and temperature around you, and it can also deceive the detection of all magic at the same level.

This is the art of Hagakure, one of the trump cards that allows the Chiba family to stand at the top of the Four Islands Alliance and become the strongest anti-demon ninja family.

The murderous intention sensing technique taught by Teacher Edwina in the afternoon is a method, but its effect is limited.

Qianyecao, who already knows the existence of this skill, will definitely strengthen her control over the murderous intention. When she can control the killing intention freely, the perception of killing intention will be useless.

Smell tracking is still a method, and Valencia has also memorized the smell of centipede, but this method is also easy to target.

There are many alchemical potions and spells that can block smells, or you can successfully confuse your sense of smell by adding a large number of beings with similar smells to your own in the surrounding environment.

The simplest way is for Chiba to lead Valencia into her room, and then fill the room with clothes and socks that haven't been washed for several days, so she no longer has to worry about Valencia locking her in through her sense of smell.

Therefore, we can't put all our hope in the sense of smell. We must find a more reliable way to deal with Ye Yin's technique.

Valencia continued to look through the information while frowning slightly.

Chiba is not the first foreign student from the Four Islands Alliance to come to France. Historically, France and the Four Islands Alliance have held several friendly martial arts competitions, and there are many records of battles with Hagakure's art.

Judging from these battle records and the reflections written by the combatants themselves afterwards, the Hidden Leaf Technique has the strongest effect on visual and magic detection. Ideas in these two directions should be eliminated first.

Because during a certain exchange and discussion, there was a paladin with dragon blood, who was born with a high-level true vision pupil that could see through illusions and disguises. In the end, he was defeated by the Chiba family's Hagakure technique.

However, Ye Yin's technique is not really flawless.

The information in Valencia's hands and her personal experience during the afternoon duel can confirm one thing.

That is, although the Hidden Leaf Technique can almost completely eliminate traces of its own existence, it cannot truly eliminate the collision volume of the body... That's why Qianyecao was caught by Valencia.

According to the data, in the discussions and exchanges between Fran and the Four Islands Alliance, the only two victories that Fran had against the Chiba family's Hagakure technique were both based on this point.

The first winner was a pure water magician. She caused a heavy rain, making the Chiba family's Taimanin unable to hide in the rain.

The second winner is a summoner who has a giant bat familiar that uses ultrasonic echolocation to break Hagakure's technique.

These two records gave Valencia a lot of inspiration, but after thinking about it carefully, Valensa realized that it would be difficult for her to replicate the success of her predecessors.

Needless to say, there is no need to talk about the magic rain. Valencia has not had any magic talent since she was a child. Even if she had the talent, it would be too late to learn water magic now.

The level of spell cultivation that can summon a heavy rain in an instant must be at least Harry's level, and it may not even be enough.

It would be a good idea to ask Tia for money to order a few magic scrolls for the rain spell... But this can only be used to passively defend against the attack of the Thousand Leaf Grass. It cannot provide long-term vigilance, so it can only be considered a bad strategy.

Ultrasonic echolocation... Valencia really tried it.

She wanted to use the power of her mind to change her body so that she could be like a bat, but she found that it didn't work.

The power of the mind is indeed magical. Anything imaginable can be realized, but the prerequisite is that the user can think of it.

Human hearing cannot hear ultrasonic waves. Valencia simply cannot imagine what it feels like to use ultrasonic echolocation like a bat. Continuing to forcefully imagine is just a waste and embarrassment of the power of the mind.

So she gave up after trying it a few times.

Until the night was extremely dark, Valencia still couldn't think of any good ideas, so she could only stretch and yawn to prepare to show off her energy.

If you encounter difficulties, sleep well.

However, this night's efforts were not without some gains.

Valensa hasn't figured out a good way to break Ye Yin's technique yet, but she has come up with a few strategies that can be used first, so there is no need to be too hasty.

. . . . .

In another room at the same time.

Chiba is not asleep yet.

She moved the bed in the middle of the room, and a lot of green leaves and seeds were scattered on the floor, forming a very strange symbol.

Qianyecao closed her eyes slightly and sat cross-legged among the symbols, forming seals with her hands.

As the seal progresses, one can see weak spiritual energy being pulled out from the green leaves and seeds on the ground and condensing at Qianyecao's eyes.

"Wood Spirit Technique. Eyes of Spiritual Vision. Open!"

Finally, Thousand Leaf Grass completed all the seals, and opened its eyes. The green eyes became even more vivid, and the seeds and green leaves on the ground all lost their luster.

"Huh~~ha~~"

This spell seemed to be a heavy burden for Chiba. She did nothing after finishing the spell. Just standing up from the ground made her breathe heavily and there were beads of sweat on her forehead.

Without wasting any time, Chiba immediately took out the two ninja short swords she had used in her duel with Valencia this afternoon and placed them in front of her eyes to observe carefully.

"Ugh!"

With just one glance, Chiba vomited blood, threw the ninja sword to the ground, and almost fainted.

But Qianyecao showed a happy smile and murmured to himself:

"Sure enough! That abominable Hungarian bad woman is not a pure-blooded human being... Such evil bloodline power is probably on the level of the ancient great demon mentioned by His Highness Himiko, right?

Hmph, she obviously has such a dirty and evil bloodline, but she likes to pretend to be a noble female knight... I hate this kind of prude Hun the most!

If I can find a way to expose her bloodline... it would be better to match some of her atrocities. Even if she is currently very popular among her classmates, her career as the chief student should be over, right?

Hum hum hum…cough cough cough…”

Qianyecao seemed to have thought of some bad idea. The more she thought about it, the happier she became, but she spat out another mouthful of blood and coughed several times in succession.

She quickly covered her heart and pressed down her skirt again:

"But what kind of bloodline is this... I wanted to use the pupil of spiritual vision to trace the origin through the blood stains remaining on the weapon, but I almost pissed myself at just one glance, and I didn't see anything..."

Chapter 52 How can a female ninja be inferior to a female knight in such a matter?

"Good morning, classmate Cao Cao."

"Your honor, classmate Valencia."

The next day, in front of the Advanced Soldier Department's Tactical Theory Classroom, Valencia and Chigusa were both smiling and seemed to be very cordial and friendly. It was impossible to tell that they were actually plotting against each other.

Valencia even took the opportunity to give Chiba a big hug, pressing Chiba's little face in her arms and shaking it from side to side, making many boys who saw this scene look envious.

Qianyecao clenched her silver teeth in Valencia's arms, but when she raised her head, her face was full of cuteness, and she winked at the boys playfully.

Suddenly, many people felt sorry that they were not petite and cute girls... Then they could enjoy the embrace of the beautiful girl with black stockings with their face like Chiba, right?

However, the recognition that the chief student and the transfer student have become good friends has become a consensus among many people following this interaction.

Acting requires a full set of skills, and for an opponent like Qianye Cao who is good at stealth, it is better to keep her right under your nose than not knowing where she is on guard.

So Valencia took advantage of the situation and sent out an invitation:

"By the way... Mr. Cao Cao, you may not know, right? I actually have a little bit of cooking skills, and I was lucky enough to get a status in the Food Association. I often cook delicious food for a few friends after class in the afternoon. Share...Cao Cao, would you like to try it too?"

"Okay, I'll be looking forward to it."

Qianyecao smiled and agreed without any hesitation.

She was worried that she wouldn't have the chance to approach Valencia in private and openly to look for a chance to make a move. Valencia's invitation was just a pillow for sleep.

Of course, Qianyecao didn't think Valencia was really kind enough to treat her to dinner, but she wasn't afraid.

How could a female ninja be inferior to a female knight when it came to tricking someone?

Chiba is very confident.

. . . . .

Two days passed peacefully like this. Valencia and Qianyecao had maintained a superficial friendship. No one had done anything wrong, and they seemed to be waiting for the opportunity to cause trouble.

The day before the rest day, both parties seemed to be ready. At noon, Valencia invited Chiba to go to the back mountain to taste delicious food after class in the afternoon. Chiba happily agreed.

This time Valencia not only had a complete set of new kitchen utensils that Tia asked Enoli to buy for her, but she also prepared a lot of high-quality ingredients in advance, enough for her to cook a big meal.

All the friends she made in the second stage of the admissions assessment were gathered. Miterela hooked up with her twin brother Meade, who had an unusually high synchronization rate with her. Tia also hooked up with another girl in the command department, the dancer Jacqueline. .

It can be seen that everyone is in pretty good shape after entering school. It has only been more than ten days, and almost everyone has improved.

Even Luka is much more confident than before, but the dark circles under his eyes are more serious, probably because he is tired from sleeping late every day.

The beggar's chicken wrapped in yellow mud was buried under the fire, and the snake meat obtained from the dream witch and the turtle caught from the pond behind the dormitory were put into the soup pot and simmered together.

After taking care of these two things, Valencia took out the iron pan she just bought and smiled at everyone:

"The inspiration for the new dish I'm going to make comes from Cao Cao's hometown... I replaced the sizzling seafood fried rice from the Four Islands Alliance with fried noodles. Let's try it."

After saying that, she took out the round noodles prepared in advance, beef strips, shredded onions, clams, shrimps and other ingredients under the curious and expectant eyes of everyone.

bang bang bang bang...

As the dual-wielding shovels and the iron pan continue to make collision sounds, the aroma of a large portion of fried noodles that looks delicious becomes more and more tempting.

As Valencia announced that the cooking was completed, everyone who had been impatient for a long time stabbed out their forks and scooped the fried noodles into their own small plates.

Even Qianyecao, who was always vigilant, kept swallowing her saliva. After observing for a while and confirming that many people were devouring the food, she also took out the tableware she brought with her.

The country of the Four Islands Alliance is very similar to the Neon Country in Valencia's previous life in many places. There are ninjas, kimonos, and chopsticks.

suck~

It is much more convenient to eat noodles with chopsticks than with a fork. Although Qianyecao was the last to start, he ate no less fried noodles than the others.

"Ummmm... you really deserve to be the top student. Valencia-san's craftsmanship is great."

Qianyecao, who had a good meal of fried noodles, touched his bulging belly and burped:

"The last time we had a duel, you always used the excuse that you were a chef to give various explanations. I thought you were trying to hide it, but I didn't expect that you are really good at cooking~~"

"As long as you like it, Mr. Cao Cao."

Valencia smiled gently and took out the beggar's chicken and snake and turtle soup that were already cooked:

"I'm also worried that you won't be able to get used to it when you are far away from your hometown... Come on, try these again, they are all my specialties~~"

"Ugh...I just ate too much...but these look delicious."

Qianyecao looked conflicted, but she quickly gritted her teeth and made a decision:

"There is no other way... I can only use that ninjutsu."

After saying this, she didn't wait for others to react, and then she started to form seals openly. Soon, a bright green energy emanated from her body, and was gradually absorbed by the surrounding vegetation.

The slightly bulging belly that had been caused by eating too much fried noodles soon became flat, and the plants and trees that had absorbed the greenery were obviously much more energetic.

"This is……?"

Everyone cast curious glances at Qianyecao.

"It's just a little trick passed down from our family~~"

Qianyecao, who finished casting the spell, waved her hand:

"Ninjas may not always have food supplies when performing missions outside, so our ancestors of the Chiba family developed this technique... which can extract essence and nutrients from nearby vegetation to satisfy hunger.

I just used this technique in reverse to distribute the excess nutrients to the plants, so that I can eat more delicious food. "

"Is there such a powerful ninjutsu? After learning it, no matter how much you eat, you won't gain weight?"

Meludi's eyes suddenly shone, she hugged Qianyecao's neck, and her voice was extremely sweet:

"Can you teach me this technique? Mr. Caocao~~"

"This……"

Qianyecao seemed to be a little overwhelmed by Meludi's enthusiasm. She tried her best to break away while expressing regret:

"I'm afraid it won't work... This is also the secret ninjutsu of the Chiba family. Without Chiba's blood, no matter how hard you practice, it will be useless."

"Really...that's such a pity..."

While talking and laughing, Valencia had also distributed the beggar's chicken and snake and turtle soup to everyone, and everyone once again waved their knives and forks to taste it.
