This dragon girl raising system is a bit strange.

[System rewards are being distributed]

[A rating earns you a reward:]

[The Intermediate Ring of Reallucali (Green)]

[Rhealucari's Intermediate Magic Ring (Description): Slightly enhances the mage's mental power.]

[2000 Professional Experience Points]

Thor noticed that Rhea Luccali's intermediate magic ring was stored in the system and could be retrieved at any time.

The ring can slightly enhance mental power.

Enhancing mental strength is extremely important for mages.

The effectiveness of spellcasting is linked to mental strength.

"nice one."

This ring can enhance spellcasting effects, which is very important for him given his current lack of stats.

He left the ring in the system and would retrieve it when needed.

The equipment is of good quality and isn't bad.

The equipment in this game, from lowest to highest quality, is white, blue, green, purple, orange, and red.

Generally speaking, green quality is the dividing line between rarity and scarcity.

And the price of a green quality piece of equipment is not low.

If we use Yulia as a unit of measurement, let's say Yulia is worth 10 gold coins.

So, green-quality equipment is worth about 1-2 Yu.

One to two Yu, that's a huge sum for anyone else.

For Thor, this was not a small expense.

"2000 experience points..."

He had no concept of this experience value.

Then a thought struck him.

"System, add points!"

[Adding points...]

[Cultivation level progress increased by 20%]

Current level: Tier 2 (20%)

Thor laughed.

The design of these numbers is actually quite sound.

As expected of the mission in the third chapter.

This 20% progress seems like very little.

It should be noted that it took him three years to advance from the first rank to the second rank.

On average, the progress is only 33% per year, not to mention that the second stage of cultivation is much more difficult.

Based on his aptitude, without any fortuitous encounters, it would take him at least two years to advance 20% from the second to the third tier.

It would normally take ten years to cultivate to the third level.

This is the suffering of those who lack talent in cultivation.

If Yulia has an S-rank aptitude, how long would it take her to reach the second tier?

Thinking this, he looked at Yulia, who was playing with ants.

"Well......"

He looked back.

Forget it, the differences between people are too great.

The thought that he might one day be surpassed by someone like that left him speechless.

You might not even reach level three with a lifetime of normal training.

This guy who plays with ants every day can easily reach the third tier in the future.

Just then, a system notification came through.

[Yulia: Affection level increased by 2]

Current favorability rating: 24/100

Thor was so angry he laughed.

No.

What does her piling up ants have to do with her?

Why does having a pile of ants increase your favorability rating?

Is it because building ant mounds makes you happy that your favorability rating increases?

"System, can you explain this to me? What's the principle behind it?"

system:【......】

The system sent six points.

"Oh well, never mind."

He put away the panel.

Perhaps this is truly the blessing of the god of leeks.

The only explanation is:

Yulia had a great time, and so she took the opportunity to thank Thor for bringing her along.

Thor didn't bother to think about it further.

"System, what's the next task?"

The first stage (10 affinity points) is the starting task.

[The initial task consisted of only one element, and it has been completed.]

Other side quests for individual characters will be available from the second phase.

The second stage (25 affinity points) mission is not yet unlocked.

[Current Affection Level: 24/100]

Thor patiently read through the system's words.

In other words, the 10 favorability points are too early in the game and are essentially a beginner's bonus.

Only one task will be refreshed.

Once you reach 25 affinity points, a new quest sequence will be unlocked.

There is 1 point of favorability remaining.

It should arrive soon.

Thor decided to let things take their course.

Based on past experience...

When he engages in purposeful behavior, the increase in favorability is limited.

On the contrary, some unexpected opportunities can increase favorability.

Thinking this, he looked at Julia.

She piled them up for a while, turning them into a small mountain. Her tail swayed back and forth, showing that she was quite happy.

"You're happy, but who could be happier than you..." Thor sighed and muttered to himself.

He should consider bestowing upon Yulia the title of "Joy of Fire".

After all, his dragon horns and tail are also red.

"The fiery red god of joy..." Thor's lips twitched.

He began to question the meaning of life, and couldn't help but compare this simple-minded dragon maid to the all-powerful killing goddess he remembered.

The Yulia he remembered was a combat master who was proficient in both swordsmanship and magic, but also had a fiery temper and would kill at the slightest provocation.

She is almost synonymous with being ruthless and taciturn, and it is rare to see joy or happiness on her face.

Did he pick up the wrong person? He wondered seriously.

Considering Yulia's dazzling S-rank talent, he felt he hadn't mistaken her for someone else.

"Could it be that some people are destined to turn evil?"

Thor didn't really like this kind of clichéd plot.

"Forget it, who knows what the future holds?"

He shook his head, trying to stop himself from thinking about these things, and walked straight toward Julia.

Upon hearing Thor's footsteps, Julia quickly dropped the stick in her hand, stood up straight, and became extremely respectful.

"It has been confirmed! All the ants are dead!"

Hearing her serious tone, Thor was speechless.

I just thought it was fun.

Thor, who had seen through everything, did not reveal the truth, but simply said:

"That's good, thank you for your hard work."

He then patted Julia on the shoulder.

"Get ready, we're going to our next destination."

Yulia's straight shoulders shrugged, and she asked, puzzled:

"Next place?"

She thought there was still a battle to be fought.

Thor explained to her as he walked:

"This place is quite close to my school. Let me show you around. I happen to have something to do here."

"School?"

Yulia then realized.

"Oh right, today is Monday."

Today is Monday.

It seems like they need to go to school.

But by now, it's long past the normal school age.

"Young master, don't you have to go to school?"

Thor noticed her confusion and shook his head.

"It's not that I don't use it, it's that I don't want to."

"Anyway, it's pointless to go, after all, I..."

He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Too strong."

That's certainly not true.

It's true that going to school is useless.

But that's not because he's too strong.

It's not because he's useless.

Anyway, I won't learn anything at school, and wasting time every day is not a good thing.

To improve himself, Thor goes out with different girls every day to hone his skills...

social contact.

Judging from the results, it was very successful.

His social skills have been greatly improved.

That's what he thinks, anyway.

"School..." Yulia muttered to herself.

She had never seen what a school looked like, and of course, she had never attended school.

She only learned about schools from the saintess.

She had no idea what was inside.

It is said that dragons also have schools.

But she was an Argonian abandoned in the wild. She had lived in the wild ever since she could remember.

She wandered for several years but still couldn't find a gathering place for dragons or sub-dragons.

Instead, they were discovered by the church and captured because they were gathering information in human territory.

Therefore, she didn't know much about the dragon clan's school.

Yulia roughly imagined that the school should be a place to learn magic and swordsmanship.

Such a place should be a place where different people fight and compete with each other.

People improve their skills through competition and practice.

The winner should also receive a generous prize, such as a roast pigeon.

Thinking about the roast pigeon from yesterday, she felt a little hungry again.

"What's wrong with you now? You're drooling." Thor said speechlessly.

"Oh, I'm sorry."

She wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth with her hand.

Yulia could probably guess that the school Thor attended was mostly attended by nobles.

She can't afford to be too embarrassing.

"arrive."

Thor stopped and pointed to the building ahead.

The school’s iconic structure is characterized by its vast grounds, slightly faded dark brown exterior walls, and three decorative conical spires.
