The demon princess was defeated and captured? Sorry, I acted in it)

Xue Feiya is not the kind of person who would easily postpone a promise she makes. She always does what she says.

It's just yawning, which is always with him.

"Ha... It's okay, it's okay. Just sit here for now. By the way, I remember I told you last time about your unique magic type."

"Yeah! I can talk to cats and dogs! It's so useless!"

"You just want to remember these useless things, right? Your special magic is called [Word Spirit Technique], so remember it well.

Stop it, you!"

“Ouch!”

Thank you, Livra, your stupidity prompted me to jump up and hit you on the head, and I came to my senses immediately.

Xue Feiya crossed her arms across her chest in annoyance, then turned around, her dark purple eyes filled with magical particles as she looked into the distance.

The view passes through the mountains and extends to the other side of the forest in the distance.

"Teacher Xia Ya...? What are you looking at?"

"See if there is a three-headed lion monster in the forest now... Tsk, I forgot. It seems to be active only at night. I should have caught one last night. It's sleeping in the broad daylight. It's hard to find."

"Looking for the three-headed lion monster...? Ah! Could it be...!"

"Yes, I want to use the monsters to test the control limit of your [Word Spirit Technique]. Last time, I verified that you can control multiple monsters at the same time, but if there are some monsters with relatively strong strength, you can still control them. I need to verify it."

"Woo woo... I understand the truth, now that things have come to this... please make sure to find a docile lion monster!"

"There's no such thing as a docile creature. Forget about that. You can't even find one right now."

"Huh...that's good..."

"Um?!"

"No! I mean, it's such a shame that we can't find it!"

It's just like your surprised look when the teacher says there will be a surprise test, but suddenly the test paper can't be found.

But that's okay.

A vortex of magic unfolds in front of Xuefia, and [Storage] is activated.

She took out a long fishing rod made of black crystal magic stone.

It sparkles and exudes a strong presence under the sun.

The surface of the fishing rod is also carved with many patterns of large fish using exquisite craftsmanship.

It can be seen that Xue Feiya put a lot of thought into making this fishing rod.

Xue Feiya looked at this "strongest weapon" and nodded repeatedly.

"Old buddy, it's time for us to work together again. Livra, wait there for a while. It doesn't matter if we can't find the lion monster. I'll go catch you a wind dragon fish."

"Wind Demon Dragon Fish?! Isn't that the legendary fish that eats people?"

"Ah? What legends? There are so few species in your Aulus. There are wind dragon fish in this lake. Wait, I'll catch one for you."

"!"

broken.

No lion monsters.

But there are more ferocious creatures than the lion monster!

13. It’s really not me!

Teacher Xia Ya said it very well. She said to give Livra a whole big fish to practice. Every word and every move was full of teacher ethics.

but...

The reality seems to be different from what Livra expected?

Now, an hour has passed.

Sitting on the big rock, Livra, who was originally full of energy and high tension, felt sleepy.

But the Wind Demon Dragon Fish still didn't come.

Teacher Xia Ya has been sitting cross-legged by the lake fishing for a full hour...

But in this hour, let alone the Wind Demon Dragon Fish, not even an ordinary small fish was seen!

Adhering to the principle of not sitting there and waiting for death, Livra jumped down the stone steps lightly, carefully walked behind Xuefia, and tilted her head to check her current condition.

"Natsu... um."

Livra uttered only a single word and then fell silent.

Her little heart beat to a rhythm that was unfamiliar to her.

Ms. Xia Ya is usually cute enough...

When fishing, her charm is even more dazzling.

The black feather-colored long dress made her look like a black rose blooming by the lake, forming a beautiful visual contrast with her silver hair sparkling in the sun.

Xue Feiya squinted her eyes, remained calm and composed, as still as a mountain. Even though she had been sitting there for an hour, she did not show any impatience or wavering. The movement of her hand holding the fishing rod did not change, and she was as steady as an old cat.

Putting aside other things, just the concentration that Miss Xia shows when fishing is enough for Livra to learn from.

Livra has never been a calm person since she was a child.

But now, looking at Xuefiya's calm profile, Livra instinctively didn't want to disturb her fishing, and her heart calmed down along with the ripples on the lake.

——And if you observe carefully, you will inevitably discover some details that you have just overlooked.

Ok?

Ms. Xia Ya...it seems that she is not completely as still as a mountain...?

Her calm little head shook up and down in a tiny amplitude, which was not easy to see without careful observation.

thus.

A terrifying possibility emerged in Livra's mind.

Shouldn't it be.

..

impossible?

Just when Livra was about to deny this possibility, she heard a soft and cute snoring sound.

"Huh...Mmm...steamed fish...fish..."

"Ahhh, you're asleep! Miss Xia, wake up! Aren't you fishing?"

"Hmm...? Huh?!"

Xuefia was awakened from her sweet dream of eating grilled fish by the shout. When she fixed her hazy vision in front of her, she saw Livra, who was about to cry but had no tears, pouting and looking as if she had wasted the past hour.

Xuefei held the fishing rod steadily with one hand and rubbed her eyes with the other hand. She had just come to her senses.

Livra puffed up her cheeks, expressing her protest in a not very confident manner.

"Wow... Miss Xia Ya, you said you were fishing, but you were clearly sleeping..."

"I'm sorry... No, Livra, this is what you don't understand."

"Eh?"

It is impossible to ask Xue Feiya to apologize honestly. She has her own persistence when holding the fishing rod.

So, let me begin the story of the evil ways.

"Fishing is too profound, you don't understand. Big fish won't be caught overnight. I am sleeping on purpose. Only when I fall asleep will the big fish relax their vigilance. Otherwise, if I am energetic, the Wind Demon Dragonfish will not dare to approach. I will wake up the moment the big fish bites the hook, so what you see is just the appearance."

"Ah... there is such a saying, but does it really work..."

"Of course it works, so don't disturb me while I'm fishing. Maybe the fish was about to bite the hook, but you scared it away."

"I see...! Then please continue. I was impatient! But..."

After all, Livra is not a complete fool. Her Royal Highness the Princess can be quite smart sometimes.

"But... since the goal is to catch fish, why do we have to use fishing? With Ms. Xia's ability, she can even use magic to force all the fish out of the lake, right?"

"Asshole...Asshole!"

"?!"

"Do you think there are shortcuts in life? You're trying to be clever when you first start learning magic. How can you possibly learn well? Reflect on this now!"

"Yes! Teacher Xia Ya, I know I was wrong!"

"That's...that's the way it should be."

Xuefia suddenly stood up and scolded Livra in a hot temper.

When she sat back by the lake, she felt very guilty.

It’s not that she hadn’t thought about using magic to catch fish directly, but this method was extremely disrespectful to fishing!

Xue Feiya didn't know why, but ever since she first came into contact with fishing as a child, she had an inexplicable obsession with this sport. She liked the exhilarating feeling when she caught a big fish.

Although she only caught a few fish a few times...it was definitely just because she made a lot of mistakes and had bad luck!

Livra learned new knowledge and became more aware. She quickly crossed her legs, sat gracefully next to Xuefei, and kept quiet.

This time she was patient.

Moreover, Xue Feiya didn't dare to sleep anymore.

"Uh...why are you sitting next to me?"

"Of course I will learn Miss Xia Ya's fishing skills up close! You always say that you like fishing, I think it must be amazing, please allow me to watch!"

"Oh! You know me very well! That's right! Then open your eyes and watch carefully. When the big fish is hooked, do you see the fishing rod in my hand? This is my old friend. I made it myself. We have worked together to catch many big fish. It has made great achievements!"

"Great!"

He made lofty and exaggerated statements.

Every word and every tone is so sonorous and powerful.

But...as time goes by.

However, a trace of cold sweat oozed out of Xue Feiya's forehead.

Bite the hook...

You guys should take a bite!

Am I supposed to wait until lunchtime and get nothing? Isn't that shameful?

Livra yawned, but quickly put away her tiredness and continued to try to open her eyes wide and look at the lake.

Through the water surface where the exquisite black and gold fishing rod was hanging, there was no sign of any living creature swimming, let alone any big fish taking the hook.

"Um... Miss Xia? I wonder if something went wrong?"

"No problem. I told you, this... this is a very difficult thing. Do you think the legendary fish is so easy to catch?"

"Didn't you just say that this isn't the legendary fish?"

"I changed my mind. I want to catch the Wind Demon Dragon Fish King."

"Fish King?!"

Then it makes sense why you are so patient!

Unknowingly.

Another hour passed.

The early morning sun had already moved a lot towards the middle of the sky, and the air was gradually becoming hotter, with the slight coolness of the early morning gone.

Livra could no longer hold on.

She stared at the calm lake, turned her neck stiffly, and looked at Xue Feiya who was sweating profusely.

Huh...? Is it so hot now?

"Teacher Xia Ya... I think... we don't necessarily have to be the fishing king, just... something ordinary will be fine? Training should also be gradual, right..."
