Interspecies Training Manual

The bathroom was filled with steam.

Celia changed into a clean nightgown; her long, silvery-white hair was still damp, with water droplets falling from the ends.

Using a drying magic spell to remove the dampness from her hair, her little face beamed with joy as she ran into her master's room.

But when the door was opened, Celia was no longer as lively as before; she lowered her head and became extremely quiet.

"Come in quickly, don't catch a cold."

Lying in bed, Luo An looked at Celia, who was wearing a thin nightgown, and quickly threw off the covers.

Celia, like a docile kitten, darted inside and lay down with her back against her owner.

Luo An reached out and wrapped his arms around her slender waist from behind.

The girl's body was soft and warm, with a fragrant scent that was unique to Celia.

Luo An felt a very pleasant and warm feeling.

The person in his arms shrank closer, their little hand resting on their owner's arm.

The feeling of being held by her owner made Celia feel incredibly secure.

"Master, when we were eating earlier, Freya seemed quite afraid of you?"

She broke the silence by starting a conversation.

"The beating Freya suffered was unimaginable. It's impossible to let your guard down all at once. We'll take it slowly."

"Just like Elena, things will get better as long as we treat her normally."

"Don't worry, Elena will take good care of her."

Luo An opened his eyes, resting his chin on Celia's little head.

He mentioned something rather urgent.

"Celia, there's something I need to tell you."

"This time when I went to the city, I bought a C-grade transformation magic book, which can change my appearance and make me look like someone else."

"We've been focusing on our research these past few days. When the harvest arrives, the two of us will infiltrate the goblin colony to gather intelligence."

Although sharing a magic book with someone outside the magic guild would result in severe punishment if discovered, Roan couldn't understand goblin language and desperately needed Celia to go with him.

Without Celia, there's no point in infiltrating.

"I see."

Celia looked up and quickly understood her master's meaning.

If the order given by the newly elected chieftain is to attack the empire, then preparations must be made as early as possible.

An attack of that scale would be a hundred times more terrifying than what we're seeing now!

"Master, I will study transformation magic diligently."

Celia was quite confident in her ability to learn magic.

Mastering this magic before the harvest season is not difficult.

"It's not enough to just transform into a goblin; we also need to observe their behavior so that we can infiltrate without being detected."

Luo An planned to go into the forest during his free time to observe some goblins.

"We still have plenty of time, so let's learn as we go and observe them in the forest."

Celia nodded obediently.

What her master said was something she hadn't expected.

If one's identity is exposed among so many goblins, the consequences will be dire.

"Get some rest."

The room quieted down.

Celia shifted slightly, as if hesitating about something, before finally speaking softly after a long pause.

"Master, I have something else I want to tell you."

Luo An looked down at the little head leaning against him.

"Just say what you want to say."

Celia bit her lip, making a huge decision, her tone inexplicably tinged with a sense of grievance.

"A few days ago, when I saw my master stroking Elena's head, I felt a strange feeling in my heart, a sour feeling, a tightness in my chest, and I even worried that my master was showing less concern for me."

"I tried to convince myself it was nothing, that my master was nice to everyone, but something was just off about him."

Celia had a lot on her mind, and since she rarely had time to be with her master, she decided to say it all.

"And these past few days, with my owner away from the farm, I've been thinking about you every day. I wonder if my owner has eaten well and slept well."

"When the owner isn't at the farm, I always feel like something's missing, and I feel empty inside."

"Master, is my thinking strange?"

Celia had her back to him, so Roan couldn't see the expression on her face.

But he noticed that the elf ears were already bright red.

His heart softened instantly.

That sour, stifling feeling is most likely from jealousy.

He longed for her day and night because the elven girl in his arms held him in the most important place in her heart, and he had deep feelings for her.

"Not surprising at all, not surprising at all."

"Because I care about someone, I feel uncomfortable when I see them being close to others."

"This emotion is actually called jealousy."

Luo An gently rubbed her little head.

"Jealous?"

Celia blinked, seemingly processing the concept.

A moment later, her face turned even redder.

So this feeling is jealousy.

This doesn't seem like the kind of emotion a slave should have for their master.

Luo An laughed and said, "The fact that Celia misses me when I'm not around means she cares about me a lot."

"Celia, you've always been important to me, and that won't change because of anyone or anything."

"So don't worry about what I've done to other people."

Celia's eyes couldn't hide her joy, and tears fell without warning—tears of happiness.

"Yes! I understand, Master."

Trust level +5%

The person in his arms nestled quietly for a long time, so long that Luo An thought she had fallen asleep, when she suddenly stirred and turned over.

Celia asked the question that had been lingering in her heart for a long time in a very soft voice.

"Master, I actually have another question I'd like to ask."

"Why do I always feel a hard feeling in my groin area when I sleep with my owner?"

Luo An's expression froze.

He never expected that this innocent and naive elf girl would suddenly ask such a straightforward and innocent question.

Her eyes were clear and innocent; she wasn't joking, she genuinely didn't understand, and simply wanted to know the answer.

Luo An remained silent for a moment, then smiled helplessly.

"This is a natural bodily reaction."

He stroked Celia's delicate cheek with his hand.

"Because Celia is so beautiful, some things just happen involuntarily."

Celia tilted her head, seemingly not fully understanding yet.

But her cheeks quietly flushed.

She glanced at the hand resting on her master's chest, then at those eyes, which held a look... different from before.

Soon, Celia finally understood what that hard sensation was and what her master meant.

In the quiet room, only the increasingly rapid breathing of the two people could be heard.

Celia suddenly mustered the greatest courage of her life, placed her hands on his chest, and looked down at her master.

Her luscious cherry lips parted slightly as she spoke in a trembling voice.

"If it's the master... then yes."

Luo An's heavy breathing stopped, and he swallowed hard.

He looked at the girl in front of him, her long silver hair cascading down her back, her cheeks flushed.

Despite her body trembling uncontrollably, she stubbornly stared at him.

Those bright eyes held no fear or timidity, but were filled with trust and something deeper.

Luo An soothed her burning cheeks and brushed his hand across her soft lips.

Celia didn't flinch, but pressed her face even closer to his palm, wrapped her arms around her master's neck, and revealed a beautiful smile.

This was an expression Luo An had never seen before.

It's certain that this time, trust will not be compromised like it was last time.

Luo An's heart suddenly raced, and he could no longer suppress his emotions.

Under the moonlight, two figures intertwined.

Celia's voice was intermittent.
