The Paradise of Reincarnation Begins with Eriri.

"Huh?"

"I told you before not to apologize so easily, but it seems that Shoko has forgotten."

Kiyono Makoto's tone was wistful:

"Say sorry again, and I'll have to punish Shoko-san."

The weak-willed personality of constantly apologizing must be corrected little by little.

Nishimiya Shoko blushed and quickly raised her hand to cover her pink lips:

"...I'm not going to say anything more."

Kiyono Makoto nodded in satisfaction and handed over the ice magic scroll:

"Let's see what skills we can learn."

Chapter 127 Shoko: Kiyono-kun, please punish me properly.

"...Thank you, Kiyono-kun."

Nishimiya Shoko thanked her gently and carefully accepted the ice magic scroll with both hands.

As the scroll unfurled, pale blue snowflakes and ice crystals danced out and quickly disappeared into Glass's body.

"Well……"

The chilly air made Shoko let out a soft hum.

"I've learned it."

The girl's long eyelashes trembled slightly as she reported the situation in a gentle voice:

"Um... the skill I possess is the Freeze Rune."

With her hearing restored, Shoko is now speaking more and more normally and no longer needs to write in her notebook.

Kiyono Makoto asked curiously:

"What skill?"

"It should be... a trap?"

Nishimiya Shoko pursed her beautiful lips, opened the character panel, and let Kiyono look at it for himself, completely without any precautions.

[Skill: Freeze Rune]

[Category: Active Skill]

[Effect: Consumes Spirit Power to generate a Freeze Rune on any flat surface. When an enemy target steps on it, it will trigger an explosion, causing area-of-effect frost damage and applying a slowing effect. There is a certain probability of freezing the target. Please note that consecutive casting within a short period of time will double the Spirit Power consumption.]

Skill Level: LV1

[Note: You can directly use points or improve your skill level through training.]

"Looks pretty good... I just don't know how much damage he sustained."

Kiyono Makoto's face revealed an expression of keen interest:

"Shoko, set up a freezing rune, let me test its effect."

"Huh?"

Nishimiya Shoko paused slightly, unusually not obediently following her instructions, but instead looking over with concern:

"...Won't it be dangerous?"

"Don't worry," Kiyono Makoto said confidently. "Team members attacking each other naturally have a high damage reduction, and I'm tough now, so I can definitely withstand it."

"Well, okay then..."

Despite Makoto Kiyono's insistence, Shoko Nishimiya finally agreed.

With her right hand covering her chest, Nishimiya Shoko half-squatted down, gently pressing her left hand on the floor.

Pale blue frost surged from Nishimiya Shoko's palm, flowing and spreading across the floor, quickly condensing into a sky-blue frost rune, shaped exactly like a standard hexagonal snowflake.

"It's only one meter in diameter..."

Seino Makoto's size can be roughly estimated by visual inspection:

"It looks a little small."

Upon hearing the evaluation, Nishimiya Shoko instinctively lowered her head and apologized.

"Sorry……"

Makoto Kiyono silently held up two fingers:

This is the second time.

"Huh?"

Nishimiya Shoko's beautiful eyes widened rapidly, and she quickly covered her pink lips with her hands.

"You've already apologized twice in such a short time," Kiyono Makoto said slowly. "I'll let it go this time, but there's no third time. If there's a third time, I'll really have to punish Shoko properly."

"Thank you, Kiyono-kun..."

Instead of being angry, Nishimiya Shoko expressed her gratitude and thanks.

If it were Zhai Li, she would definitely be kicking people out by now, right?

Kiyono Makoto looked down at the frozen runes on the floor:

"The trap looks rather conspicuous... Could we make it invisible?"

Nishimiya Shoko quickly shook her head:

"right……"

Just as she was about to say sorry, Shoko quickly realized what was happening, hurriedly raised her hand to cover her pink lips, and whispered with a blush:

"Um... that's impossible."

Makoto Kiyono: "How long can a rune last?"

Nishimiya Shoko: "Twelve hours."

"It's been a long time." Kiyono Makoto nodded slightly. "How's the skill consumption?"

Nishimiya Shoko's voice was gentle:

"The consumption is very low, it feels like I can set up ten at once."

"Continuous spellcasting will double the consumption of mental energy."

Kiyono Makoto offers this reminder:

"So there definitely aren't ten."

"Oh……"

Nisuko nodded obediently.

"Let me try it and see how it goes."

Kiyono Makoto raised his right foot and stepped on it.

The moment it landed, the freezing runes on the floor were instantly activated.

Click!

A crisp sound of ice breaking rang out.

Countless ice and snow fragments suddenly exploded, carrying a bone-chilling cold, and quickly adhered to Kiyono Makoto's body.

"Kiyono-kun, are you alright?"

Nishimiya Shoko clasped her hands to her chest, looking at her with worried eyes.

"fine."

Kiyono Makoto did a quick stretch and felt a slight stiffness, but it wasn't a serious problem.

"The skill damage isn't high, but the sound is very loud, so it feels like it could be used to provide an early warning."

The sound of ice breaking is very loud, and since Glass has specifically enhanced her hearing skills, it can indeed be used as an early warning skill.

Not only that.

The Frozen Rune should also be able to work in conjunction with Water Magic. For example, if Water Magic is used in advance to put the target into a 'wet' state, the probability of freezing should increase significantly.

"call……"

Seeing that Kiyono Makoto's tone was natural and his expression was calm, Nishimiya Shoko couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"It's good that Kiyono-kun is alright."

Her gaze shifted downwards, and she suddenly noticed a damp patch on the floor, clearly related to the freezing rune from earlier. Nishimiya Shoko instinctively apologized.

"Sorry, the floor is wet..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Nishimiya Shoko reacted quickly, hurriedly raising her hand to cover her pink lips and nervously looking up at Kiyono Makoto.

"Stop covering it up," Kiyono Makoto said quietly. "I've already heard you."

Nishimiya Glass: "..."

Kiyono Makoto clicked his tongue softly:

"It seems that fate has decreed that I will severely punish Shoko tonight."

"..."

Nishimiya Shoko blushed and remained silent.

If it were anyone else, Shoko would be on high alert and tense right now.

But Kiyono... has absolutely no relation to it.

"I got it."

Kiyono Makoto snapped his fingers lightly and looked at Shoko, whose body was tense, like a primary school student who had made a mistake:

"Praise yourself in ten ways, and do not repeat yourself."
