Your notoriety is known to everyone.

At this moment, the magic book in his hand suddenly opened, and the figure of the Shadow Demon quickly jumped out of it. It pointed at Elina with a surprised look on its face and said in surprise:

"You chicken coop fox! Why are you in Rogers' dormitory? It's already night time!"

The fox in the chicken coop is a proverb popular in the eastern part of the empire, generally referring to a mistress who destroys the relationship between husband and wife.

Elina's face darkened slightly when she heard this, especially when she saw the hair color and face of the Shadow Demon, her expression gradually became more gloomy.

Chapter 43: The Cowardly Shadow Demon

On the long table in front of the sofa in the living room stood an exquisitely carved brass candlestick with three candles as smooth as jade inserted in it.

Perhaps it was because of Rogers's movement when he entered the room that the three bright flames kept swaying left and right.

Elina's face was originally illuminated by the warm yellow light, and then the swaying of light and shadow added a bit of blurriness to her expression.

She did not respond to the Shadow Demon's question, but just frowned and looked at the Shadow Demon, who looked like a saint but had the same hair color as Rogers.

"Are you feeling guilty?! Why aren't you answering me?"

The Shadow Demon felt a little frightened by Elena's stare, and his voice had a hint of fierceness, as if he was trying to give himself courage.

"You haven't even found the succubus yet, but you've already impatiently brought a halfling ghost into your home. If Earl Breed knew about this, he would definitely be extremely worried about the continuation of the family's bloodline."

Elina still ignored the Shadow Demon's noise, glanced at Rogers lightly, and spoke in a cold tone.

The Shadow Demon at this moment appeared to be only about one meter tall. It had been floating in the air since it jumped out of the magic book, and it really looked a bit like a half-orc ghost.

Rogers sighed when he heard this. He patted the cover of the magic book hard, but unfortunately there was still no response. He didn't know when it would wake up and complete the task of imprisoning the Shadow Demon seriously.

Afterwards, he did not want to explain too much to Elina. After all, he felt that he had no obligation or need to report to her in detail what he had done. So he just said casually, "This guy is a shadow demon, not a halfling ghost."

Hearing this, Elina closed the "Succubus Research" and put it aside. She deliberately did not disturb Rufia who was taking a nap. She slowly got up from the sofa and then walked towards the Shadow Demon.

The Shadow Demon wanted to continue questioning Elena about her shameless behavior of having no manners and decency at a boy's house at night.

However, seeing the other party's gradually cold eyes and the approaching distance, it felt as if it was a prey targeted by its natural enemy. It couldn't help feeling very scared and subconsciously hid behind Rogers.

Rogers observed the reaction of the Shadow Demon with great interest, thinking that this guy had not learned the courage of the Saint at all. He wondered how he developed this timid look that made him hide when he saw Elena approaching.

Then, when he saw Elena's unfriendly gaze shift from the Shadow Demon behind him to himself, he immediately activated the contract and forced the Shadow Demon to move in front of him.

The Shadow Demon glared at Rogers fiercely. As it got closer, its tone began to tremble as it shouted at Elina, "I'm warning you! Don't come any closer!

"What do you want to do? You're not going to attack me?! I'm the great Shadow Demon! When I break free, I'll definitely kick your ass!"

Seeing this, Rogers pinched his chin, looking very delicate.

I felt ashamed that I was so afraid of this Shadow Demon. I didn't expect that Elina could scare it to this extent.

Not only did it capture the saint's emotions, it also chose to reflect its brave, upright and intelligent self, but it behaved so cowardly, which wasted such a good start.

Elina was stunned for a moment, then kept looking between Shadow Demon and Rogers, with a sarcastic sneer on her lips.

“So it’s not the Saint that it reflects, but you.

“That’s right, in the entire Saint Herta, I’m afraid you are the only one who can summon a large group of magicians’ negative emotions.

“Then, in the process of feeding on emotions, this shadow demon should have also instinctively devoured a lot of the Saint’s emotions, which is why it was forcibly influenced by the Saint’s mental power and became the weird appearance it is now.

"Since it has already evolved into a cursed creature targeting you, why don't you remove it immediately? Or do you want to wait to be usurped?"

In just a few words, Elina sorted out the causes and consequences of the birth of the Shadow Demon, and her tone revealed an undisguised murderous intent at the end.

She stared at the appearance of the Shadow Demon. The more she looked, the more uncomfortable she felt in her heart. She seemed to be ready to remove the curse for Rogers.

"No! I have already failed to usurp Rogers! I can no longer threaten him!" The Shadow Demon hurriedly defended himself, then turned his head and looked at Rogers pitifully:

"If she hates me, I can try to stay away from her. If that doesn't work, you can send me to Alice to please her. I will definitely come back to see you if I have the chance in the future. Please..."

A layer of mist filled the Shadow Demon's eyes. It bit its lower lip lightly, its expression filled with sad and pleading, as if it contained endless pleading and desire.

When it first agreed to be managed by Rogers, its first thought was to cheat like Rogers did and then run away when it got the chance.

However, he accidentally helped Rogers to successfully activate the [Liqi Special], and truly kept it firmly under Rogers' control.

It had finally convinced itself to accept this dark reality, but it didn't expect to run into Elena, a malicious intruder.

"Think about Alice! You loved her so much! Alice would definitely not want Alina to treat me like this!

"After all, I was born from your union! Alice also knows my existence to some extent! If there is no room for me here, you can give me to Alice!

"She will be very happy to see me! And as long as I bring you together! You may even be able to return to your previous relationship! Isn't this what you have always wanted?!

"and……"

Seeing that Rogers showed no intention of protecting it, the Shadow Demon became more anxious and helpless, and words of begging for mercy came out like a machine gun.

"Shut up!"

An extremely suppressed cold shout instantly extinguished the Shadow Demon's endless chatter, scaring her so much that tears welled up in her eyes.

"That is to say, isn't the current atmosphere a bit weird?" Rogers scratched his head, feeling as if he was in the plot of some third-rate family ethics drama.

"Also, I must remind you that I am not eager to return to my previous relationship with Alice. Please don't have any unnecessary misunderstandings about this."

Although the illusion given to him by the Shadow Demon was indeed beautiful, it was a pity that it was destined not to be the path he sought.

After hearing this explanation, the Shadow Demon's eyes gradually opened to their limits, and his expression changed from fear to confusion, and then from confusion to anger. It was as if in the blink of an eye he had forgotten that he was still in a life-and-death crisis.

Chapter 44: How to Face the Saint

"No! This can't be a misunderstanding! How can this be a misunderstanding! This cannot be a misunderstanding!

"You should be craving it! You're lying now, right?! You must be lying, right! You damn liar!

"I know you feel sorry for Alice! You must be longing to be at peace with her! You must be longing..."

The words stopped abruptly again as Elina reached out and covered the Shadow Demon's mouth, preventing it from uttering any more syllables.

"I told you to shut up."

Elina leaned close to the Shadow Demon's ear and announced in a cold and calm voice.

But this time the Shadow Demon did not surrender because of cowardice. It struggled desperately, trying hard to escape the magical restraints released by Elena.

It wanted to vent, to roar, to pour out everything on this infuriating and despicable lie.

Rogers looked at the pair of red and swollen eyes that were staring at him, and with a complicated expression, he pushed his monocle with his middle finger.

He knew from the beginning that the Saint also had a crush on him, and he also admitted that he had also been very fond of the Saint before.

If the two of them were not involved in some messy fate, schemes, conspiracies, and other such troubles, they might actually try to be together.

Unfortunately, there is no "if" in this world, and that kind of world line with a completely happy ending will never really happen.

"You are too excited. The real Alice would never be as hysterical as you are now." Rogers commented, shaking his head.

A creature like the Shadow Demon that feeds solely on emotions would naturally go to extremes easily.

Especially since the influence of the Saint's bloodline is much greater than that of an ordinary magician, it is reasonable that the Shadow Demon would become its current state.

The real Alice will only restrain herself, swallow all the pain into her stomach and digest it slowly, and try her best to avoid bringing negative emotions to anyone.

In all the plot lines, she is basically the one who patiently comforts others and never needs others to comfort her.

"I think if I need to keep it, I need to teach it some common sense first, such as what marriage is and what a real intruder is."

Elina used some unknown method to miraculously make the noisy Shadow Demon gradually fall into a coma, and then she gave some suggestions to Rogers.

"It doesn't matter. It would be nice if it could become more obedient." Rogers shrugged and said. He could tell that Elena wanted to discipline the other party, and he didn't feel any resistance to it.

After all, he had a binding contract with the Shadow Demon, so he didn't need to care about the other party's independent will at all.

And judging from the failed experience in training the magic book, it is a good thing to launch this thing that will most likely give him a headache.

However, he was very curious about what Elina had done just now. There was clearly no magical fluctuation flowing out, but she was able to subdue the Shadow Demon so easily.

"Can you learn knowledge and skills directly from foresight?" Rogers looked at Elina curiously, who was carrying the Shadow Demon like a chicken.

The only thing that Shadow Demon can get from his illusory life is emotion, but Elina's [Precognitive Bonus] reflects the reality.

If she could learn from the foreseen future, then this ability would definitely be comparable to a small simulator.

"If you are willing to change our contract to a level of equality, I will answer your question." Elina snorted and did not respond directly.

"Then there's no need to answer." Rogers shook his head slightly and walked straight to the sofa.

He was a little unsure of what requests Elena would make if she answered his question.

Moreover, he only likes to make requests to others, but he doesn't like others to make requests to him.

Besides, with Elina's intelligence, she might trick him with some meaningless answers at any time.

Moreover, considering that Elina still retains a lot of girlish nature, even if the [Precognitive Bonus] has abilities similar to a simulator, it should be a severely castrated version and not too strong.

Otherwise, it would not be described as a high-level bonus in the tooltip, but would be called a miracle.

Elina had anticipated Rogers's reaction and didn't say anything more about it.

When she gently placed the Shadow Demon on the sofa, Rogers put down the magic book and just sat down, Lufia let out a slight whimper and raised her hand to rub her eyes.

The little princess slowly opened her confused and sleepy eyes. As she gradually regained consciousness, she slowly turned her head and fixed her gaze on the phantom demon not far away.

Then her pupils suddenly dilated, filled with disbelief and shock, as if she was completely unable to accept the fact that she saw before her.

"Did I sleep into the future? Both Rogers and the Saint have daughters?!"

Before she could try to gather more information, Elina tapped her forehead.

"This is the Shadow Demon..." Rogers sank into the soft and comfortable sofa and briefly explained the whole story to Lufia.

"It was so thrilling. Fortunately, it is under control now." After hearing what was said, Lufia showed a lingering fear on Roger's face.

Elina sat cross-legged next to Lufia, and after thinking for a moment, she told Rogers that the chief of Morost Academy, Kelvins, had invited her to dinner.

There was no exaggeration in her narration; after what had just happened, she no longer had that mood.

Rogers picked up a bowl and used a wooden spoon to scoop up the cheese mashed potatoes that the two brought for him from the cafeteria. While chewing, he thought about the information revealed in Elena's words.

"Kelvins is a hot-blooded fool. He probably just wants to invite you to play chess.

“However, the Third Prince was very likely to have played a guiding role in this, and you were right not to rashly accept the invitation.

“The Third Prince is somewhat smart, but not much, and he is a passionate decision maker, so it’s not surprising that he comes up with some ridiculous schemes.

"Also, once he starts moving, he won't stop until he achieves his goal. We have to find a way to make him learn to be quieter."

He swallowed a few mouthfuls of cheese mashed potatoes with difficulty and quickly decided to eat Idrul's special apples to fill his stomach tonight.

By the way, he also sorted out his own views and expressed his ideas to Elena.

"It sounds like the Third Prince isn't that big of a problem. Compared to him, you should probably think more about how to face the Saint."

Elina glanced at the sleeping Shadow Demon and spoke in an inexplicable tone.

Chapter 45: He is not normal, I am a little scared (two in one)

The night gradually faded away, the sky in the distance turned slightly blue, and the dawn light penetrated through the gaps in the clouds, quietly spreading across the entire Saint Herte.

Rogers stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom, yawning constantly.

His tired face was reflected in the mirror, with faint dark circles around his eyes, which prominently highlighted his thin bags under his eyes.

Last night, Elina burst out with an unprecedented thirst for knowledge, and she squeezed him with full fighting spirit all night long, as if she was afraid to let him stop for even a moment.

However, this also happened to cater to some of Rogers's plans, so he was willing to go with the flow and compile many reviews on linguistics, which he could directly hand over to Professor Alana in exchange for credits.

The cool water splashed on Rogers' face, bringing him some clarity.

After he finished washing up and changed into his college uniform, he just opened the wooden door of the bathroom and saw Elena leaning against the door.

"You don't still want to wash up here, do you?" Rogers asked weakly.

He was now really a little scared of Elena's unsatisfied look and just wanted her to return to the dormitory as soon as possible.

"This is me following your note-taking method and sorting out many of the key notes you told."

Elena handed Rogers a stack of papers, with a look of lingering satisfaction on her face, without any trace of fatigue like Rogers.

Lufia had fallen asleep in the middle of the night and was now curled up on the sofa, breathing evenly and slowly. She would giggle from time to time, and no one knew what she was dreaming about.

Rogers took the draft and glanced through it casually, finding that the content was very concise and the logical connection was quite clean and complete.
