Mischievous Lolita in the Doll

“Superpowered individuals are like that kid over there. Their abilities come with magic, and they can use them directly as superpowers. Even if they don’t develop their own magic, they can still be considered very strong.” Little Lu pointed to Mill, who was sleeping on the table.

Xia Ye nodded, took out a pen and started writing in her notebook. This was important knowledge, although it might be something that elementary schools in this world would teach, but Xia Ye was currently in a state where she didn't even know common sense.

Seeing Xia Ye's serious attitude, Xiao Lu nodded in satisfaction and continued:

"The latter two are actually of the same type. They are the kind of awakened abilities that don't have any skills themselves. Magical abilities refer to abilities that are related to elemental magic and general magic. These abilities don't come with magic by themselves, or the magic they come with can't be used directly. These abilities require developing their own magic. In terms of power, they may be slightly inferior to superpowers, but in terms of the number and complexity of magic, they are higher than superpowers."

"Mystical magic is similar to magical magic; the abilities themselves don't have particularly strong skills and must be learned later. However, the types of magic it's associated with are mystical magic and general magic. Mystical magic is far less powerful than the other two types, but its advantage lies in its complexity and unpredictability. Xia Ye, your [Sorcerer] skill belongs to the mystical category."

Xia Ye diligently wrote down the knowledge in her little notebook. This knowledge could help her become stronger. Although the world seemed quite peaceful at the moment, not as chaotic as she had imagined, becoming stronger was never a bad thing.

Xiao Lu erased the words on the blackboard and rewrote some things, continuing from where she left off:

"My ability is the [Mysticism], which is also a mysterious category. It is currently known to be the ability that can connect the most types of mysterious magic. Actually, it would be best to have a lich, who is a [Sorcerer] like you, teach me. However, [Sorcerer] is an exclusive ability for them, and under normal circumstances, no outsiders will awaken it. Even if you awaken this ability for some reason, the lich will not pass on the experience and magic of this ability to you. So today, I will teach you."

Hearing this, Xia Ye was not in a good mood. No one wants to be an outcast, because outcasts are isolated. Moreover, her path to becoming stronger had suddenly been cut off.

However, it's not entirely incomprehensible. After all, this is someone else's exclusive possession, and it might even be something they often boast about. Now, an outsider like myself has gotten it. It's already a miracle that they haven't come over and wiped me out; they certainly won't give me a friendly look.

“But it’s okay,” Xiaolu comforted her. “The greatest strength of a power user is not learning other people’s magic, but developing their own. As long as you, Xia Ye, slowly develop your own unique magic, you can become stronger.”

After her comforting words, Xia Ye could only smile wryly. If one could learn the magic that their ancestors had already researched, who would bother to develop these complicated things on their own?

Xiao Lu also noticed Xia Ye's mood and pointed to Mir, who was still sleeping, and said, "That kid's ability is much more complicated. I have never seen anyone in this world with the same ability as him. Although there are a few similar ones, none of them seem to be as mysterious as that kid. Look at that kid, he lives a carefree life."

After she finished speaking, Mir sat up and sneezed. She looked around in confusion for a moment, then lay back down and went back to sleep.

Xia Ye wasn't fooled. She had just explained the classification of abilities, and now she was comparing her, a mysterious ability type who needed to study magic, to Mir, a superpower type who was developing his abilities. This move was incredibly clever.

Seeing that Xia Ye's expression had become even more gloomy, Xiao Lu quickly coughed twice to change the subject.

"Is there anything else you'd like to ask, Xia Ye?"

Xia Ye has already been hit hard by the harsh reality, but she still has a lot of questions to ask.

How can I become stronger?

"Didn't I just say that you should learn or develop your own magic?"

Xiao Lu looked at Xia Ye in confusion. This child had been listening quite attentively just now, so why was he asking such a question?

“That’s not what I meant,” Xia Ye organized her thoughts. “The dean said my ability was D-rank. How can I improve it? Through training?”

Upon hearing her question, Xiao Lu first scratched her head helplessly, and then began to write and draw on the blackboard.

Actually, Xia Ye had wanted to complain earlier. She couldn't understand the writing in this world at all, so it was completely useless for this guy to write on the blackboard.

"This is actually a matter of common sense. In fact, the level increase is not because you do anything, but because you unconsciously increase it when you use your abilities."

Huh? Is that even possible? You can become stronger without any effort??

“However…” Xiao Lu touched her lips with her finger and changed the subject, “This is also related to talent. For example, I am more than a thousand years older than your dean, but my ability is still only B-level. Some people can only reach D-level even if they fight to the death. So it is very rare for someone like Xia Ye to wake up with D-level.

"Furthermore, this grading system doesn't mean that breaking through to C-level is like in fantasy novels. It's just an evaluation of ability, a way to better describe the strength of ability users. If you reach that level, you'll naturally be assigned that rank, just like military ranks. For example, even if I'm classified as B-level, I can easily defeat ten ordinary B-level users. I can even beat someone who has just reached A-level. Of course, I'd rather not be able to beat someone like the Dean."

Isn't this ridiculous? What's the point of this ranking system then? Is it just for showing off?

Xia Ye once again experienced the absurdity of this other world. Is it going to come up with another monster-fighting and leveling-up setting soon?

"Actually, the best way to get stronger is through actual combat. It can increase your combat experience and also improve your spiritual energy and magic power. If you fight monsters, the effect is even better."

Hold the grass! !

Chapter 72 Sak is fooled again

"Hey, get up." Xia Ye patted Mir's face.

Mil stretched, his eyes still seeming a little drowsy. For some reason, he felt more comfortable sleeping in the classroom than in bed, especially with someone on the podium constantly singing lullabies to help him fall asleep.

"Is it noon already?" Mil looked up at the window. The scorching sunlight shone through the glass onto his face. He hadn't noticed it when he was asleep, but the weather was so hot it was almost unbearable.

"It's time for lunch. If you're not going to eat, I'll go by myself."

"Ah~ah~"

After letting out two unintelligible groans, Mir stood up and walked out of the classroom looking half-dead.

The outdoor temperature in summer is unimaginably high, especially at noon. Although those with abilities can use magic to insulate themselves from the heat, the sunlight still makes them feel extremely irritable.

The restaurant would become very stuffy and hot in such weather, with a heat permeating the air.

At times like this, even if there might still be seats in the cafeteria, most people are too lazy to look for them. As soon as they glance around and see a dense crowd, they automatically form an impression in their minds that "there are no seats left here." So many people pack their food and take it back to their dorm rooms to eat.

Mir and Xia Ye went to the restaurant to get takeout. Xia Ye brought a rice bowl that looked similar to what you'd find in the real world, while Mir ordered a bunch of strange dishes, including things like "stir-fried tomatoes with tomatoes," "fried potatoes," "stir-fried duck eggs with eggs," and "steamed sweet potatoes"—all of which sounded very odd.

On the way, they encountered a dejected-looking Sack, who also saw Mir and the others. He ran over as fast as he could and grabbed Mir's shoulder.

“You completely fooled me!!” Sack’s eyes turned bloodshot.

"It failed?"

"Not only did I fail, but I was chased for eight blocks by all the students in their class! I just got back by car."

“But it was somewhat fruitful; I managed to snap a picture of her in a hurry.” Sack showed a photo to Mir.

So what's the point of you taking a picture?

"Where are the wreaths?"

"It got demolished. By the way, your method didn't work at all. I found out that the lady was from the hamster class, but when I went to deliver it, I almost got bitten half to death by someone from her class before I even got close to her!"

“No, Sack, it’s not that the method didn’t work,” Mil patted his shoulder again, changing the style of the drawing to gray and white. “She must have already sensed your feelings. The people in that class who are chasing you must be jealous that you’ve gotten closer to their goddess.”

"Really, Mir, you're not lying to me again, are you?" Sack's drawing style also changed to gray and white.

“I’ve always been on your side,” Mil’s style grew increasingly weathered. “Now let her continue to feel your love.”

"But how can I make her feel my love?" Sack fell for the trick again, like a fool.

Xia Ye couldn't bear to watch anymore. Did this guy Mil have some kind of intelligence-lowering aura? Despite not being particularly smart, he always managed to make his opponent's intelligence even lower than his own, and then defeat them with his rich experience.

Or is it just that this guy is easy to fool? But he didn't seem like an idiot before. Are people in love really brainless?

"This..." Mil looked up at the sky with a weary expression. The intense sunlight almost prevented him from doing so, but the doll's amazing body structure forced him to keep his eyelids open.

“You know, Sack, the most steadfast love in fairy tales is to love even in death. Let her feel that kind of love.”

"Huh?! If you die, you'll have nothing left, right?" Sack exclaimed in surprise, almost making him leave the gray-white art style.

"No, I mean let her feel that love, not actually make you die."

"But how can I make her feel this love?" Sack now looked exactly like a fool who had been completely fooled.

"Then buy her a bottle of rat poison. I'm sure you two, with your deep understanding of each other, will be able to convey its meaning."

Xia Ye, standing to the side, opened her eyes wide, but she didn't say anything. After a morning of cramming, she had learned some things, such as that a person with superpowers would not be poisoned to death by rat poison. At most, they would experience some physical discomfort, stomach pain, or severe diarrhea.

Moreover, for some reason, she felt a strange sense of satisfaction when she saw Mir fooling Sak like that. Was this what pleasure was?

"Why do I feel like you're lying to me, Mil?" Sack asked again, but his expression revealed that Mil had already lowered his IQ to the minimum.

“What does it matter?” Mil looked at Sack with a weathered face. “Life always requires daring attempts to succeed. Just go ahead and do it boldly, even if you feel like you’ve been tricked.”

"I understand, Mir, but I don't have any money right now. I'll have to wait until after the practical training course to buy rat poison."

"Yeah, keep it up. The world is on your side, young people in their prime." Mil cheered him on with his fists clenched.

"I understand, then I'll head back now." With that, Sack left with a determined expression.

That's it, this kid has been completely fooled by Mil.

"You really have a twisted sense of humor," Xia Ye said, glancing at Mir.

Mir just watched Sak's departing figure silently. Unfortunately, it wasn't sunset, and the strong sunlight shining on Sak, the fake ghost, seemed somewhat out of place.

"Pah! Serves you right, they wouldn't lend me the money when I called to ask!"

Xia Ye stared at him speechlessly.

This guy has completely forgotten that Sack didn't lend him money because he spent all his money on flowers, and it was this guy who came up with the idea of ​​buying a bunch of flowers to make a wreath.

"Aren't you going a bit too far?"

No matter what, they are pursuing their own happiness, but this guy keeps obstructing them, which is a bit unreasonable.

"Come on," Mir glanced at Xia Ye sideways, "Aren't you enjoying it too?"

Summer night fell silent.

“And that girl already has a girlfriend,” Mir said, looking in the direction Sack had left. “I’ve seen that girl in the photo before, late at night in the woods with another girl…”

"Stop!" Xia Ye made a stop gesture.

"I don't want to hear it, thank you."

Chapter Seventy-Three: Money is not something external to oneself.

Time always slips away unnoticed. In the blink of an eye, Xia Ye has been in this world for half a month. During these two weeks, she has gone to class almost every day. In addition to some basic knowledge, she also has to learn the common language of this world.

Studying can be tedious, especially when learning a language. Xia Ye lost the initial passion she had when she first decided to study after just one week.

So far, Teacher Xiaolu hasn't started teaching her any powerful magic, but she's quite interested in the basic spells, like the water-walking technique. After Xiaolu taught her that, she made her do a Naruto run on the water to check her proficiency.

However, Mil has been accompanying her to class these past few days. Although he falls asleep instantly on the table as soon as he arrives, he has still fulfilled his responsibilities as a senior.

Although he's a pervert.

Although these days were somewhat boring, the magical spells still made summer nights quite interesting, until one day their homeroom teacher, Lux, called them all over.

"Although it's only been half a month since the start of the semester, we have a practical training session every month according to the rules, right? This time, I've taken on two tasks for you."

Teacher Xiaolu took it upon herself to produce two forms.

"Now you will be divided into two groups, one led by Lark and the other led by me. The tasks assigned to the two groups will be different depending on the situation."

They understood what these words were saying, but they were mainly meant for Xia Ye, the newcomer.

Xia Ye was still a little confused. They had only studied for half a month and were already going to do practical training? She had heard that the practical training in this academy was similar to the mercenary missions in novels. It was somewhat dangerous, but everyone could get some reward, a portion of which went to the academy.

She still hasn't mastered any powerful magic, and her fighting style remains the same monotonous method of slapping magic in the face.

"Now I'll start dividing the teams. The first group is Lak's team: Ula, (censored?) Sak, and Vilse. The second group is led by me: Mil, Carlo, and Summer Night. Do you have any objections?"

"Yes!" Mil raised a hand at the opportune moment. "Why should we have you lead the team?"
