Frilian: Starting with Wind Spirit and Moon Shadow, Playing Through the Heavens

"You'll get used to it. I wasn't used to it at first either, but it got much better later. After all, eating can increase your level."

"In this world, the fresher the vegetables, the tastier they are, and the more experience they provide."

As they spoke, only half of the lettuce was still throbbing, like a corpse convulsing.

Frillie didn't even look and kept stuffing it into her mouth, her experience increasing by 1% as she ate.

She wiped the juice from the corner of her mouth and gently wiped her face with the back of her hand on a handkerchief.

"That's it."

"..."

For some reason, even though it was just normal eating, Ronan always got the feeling that he was eating people.

Perhaps it was just his imagination, but since it's a global custom, he could only try to finish the fried egg whole.

The fried egg was now "dead" and no longer made a sound, so it no longer felt guilty.

After sensing it, I found that my experience hadn't increased because my level was already maxed out, but I had indeed gained some soul power.

Insignificant, however…

"That's interesting."

Ronan's mood instantly improved as he pondered, "The essence of experience is the soul, but the soul itself is not the same as experience."

"By eating it, I gain a fraction of its soul. This enhancement is negligible, but it's just a fried egg..."

"I wonder if there's a limit to the effectiveness of this enhancement. If not..."

Ronan's fingers rubbed the cutlery together, as if he could see a bright future.

Looking up at Frillie, who was sipping her juice, he thought to himself, "She's really my lucky star."

Without her time travel, I don't know when I would have been able to strengthen my soul so easily.

The King of Redemption? That's multiplication; only when the base number increases can it become even more powerful after multiplication.

With that thought in mind, he had no more reservations and quickly finished all the food in front of him.

A continuous stream of soul power flowed into his body. After finishing the meal, he sensed it again and found that the basic strength of his soul had increased by one ten-millionth.

"If we stay longer, it will be easy to improve several times over. At that time, it's not impossible to even break through the world behind the goddess."

Ronan muttered to himself, nodding in satisfaction.

"Perhaps I misunderstood Aqua. Although this goddess is unreliable, she can be of great help sometimes."

Seeing Ronan enjoying his meal, Frillie, though not understanding why, seemed to acknowledge her efforts and smiled slightly.

Chris happened to see this scene as he came downstairs.

Immediately, he fled back to the second floor, his footsteps hurried and disordered.

It really was that kind of relationship.

Let's not be third wheels.

Chapter 219, May the kind lich overcome this difficult time.

Axel, inside a magic item shop.

"jingle--"

Welcome!

As the crisp sound of wind chimes rang out, Wiz, the voluptuous shop owner dressed in a purple robe, instinctively spoke and looked towards the door.

She was holding an abacus, calculating her profits and losses for the month.

She was very happy to see the guests arrive, because this month marked the fifth consecutive month of losses.

If no large orders come in, she won't even be able to afford to restock.

However, what came into her view was not the usual figure of an adventurer, but a strange man in a black tuxedo covered in mud.

"Hahahaha—"

The strange man threw his head back and laughed loudly, glancing around at the shop's decorations as he did so. His gaze finally settled on Wiz, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

Wiz was taken aback when he saw this, and then covered his mouth.

"Mr. Barnier?"

This strange man was none other than the demon duke Barnier, who had traveled thousands of kilometers overnight.

The reason for coming here is because of the future that will be cleansed in two days.

He and Wiz had been friends for many years. Despite their ill-fated relationship, he decided to help her out in order to avoid losing his only friend.

"My friend, it's been so many years. How have you been lately?"

Barnier greeted him politely, while giving a graceful bow.

However, he had just lowered his head.

"Freeze!"

Wiz suddenly raised his hand, and a chilling aura instantly emanated from his fingertips.

Wherever the magic touched, everything quickly froze into crystal-clear ice crystals.

However, this did not seem to pose a threat to Barnier, who easily dodged the attack.

"Hahaha—! You're still so impulsive! Don't be hasty, I didn't come here for..."

He was about to explain his purpose when Wiz interrupted him with a serious expression:

"I don't believe it. Anyway, Mr. Barnier has been absorbing negative emotions for quite some time now."

"You must have come here because you saw that Axel was a bunch of novice adventurers and wanted to play a trick on them."

"For example, you could disguise yourself as a succubus, and when they're at their most excited, you could reveal your disguise and say something like, 'Aren't you excited? Haha, you guessed wrong, it's me!'"

"Honestly, so many years have passed, why haven't your hobbies changed at all?"

"I will never allow you to persecute those innocent adventurers."

Although he is one of the Demon King's officers and his race is lich, Wiz was human not long ago.

The most outrageous thing she'd ever done in her life was probably becoming a lich. She lives here to protect these adventurers.

This feeling of being seen through was really unpleasant for Barnier.

He touched his mask, sighed, and, meeting Wiz's wary gaze, remarked:

"You seem to know me quite well, no wonder you're my old friend. But unfortunately, you're wrong."

He spread his hands, making a helpless gesture.

"I have come here to save you..."

……

As Barnier slowly recounted the future two days from now, Wiz fell into a long silence.

Two days later, I will be purified, thus ending this long life.

How should I put this news?

While it wasn't exactly despair, she had been mentally prepared to be attacked from the moment she became an undead creature.

But hearing it out of the blue still inevitably brings a sense of melancholy to my heart.

It's like being told you have a terminal illness and won't live past tomorrow before you've even finished playing a fun game.

"..."

Wiz remained silent for a long time, then lowered his hand and couldn't help but ask:

"So I'm going to die? You came all this way just to tell me you're going to die? Mr. Barnier, you're being way too considerate."

She would rather not have this kind of thoughtfulness.

Just when she was heartbroken and dejected...

Barnier slammed his hand on the shelf:

"Fool! Didn't you hear what I just said? My eyes can see into the future, and you still have a sliver of hope!"

"Now, immediately, right now, come with me to Alcanredia! Take your potions with you."

Among the potions Wiz sells is one that can remove the experience cap; it was a failed attempt she made in imitation of the Demon King's abilities.

The effect is that after reaching the level limit, you can break through the limit and then upgrade without limit.

It looks impressive, but it has a fatal side effect—it will slow down your level progression by more than ten times after you drink it.

This leads to both the strong and the weak looking down on it, since no one in the world has reached the maximum level.

But now, it has come in handy.

Wiz was taken aback, then began to stammer:

"That...that kind of medicine, I've seen no one knows how to use it, it's already..."

"You destroyed what? You already destroyed it?"

Barnier's voice suddenly rose, his brows furrowed beneath the mask.

Fortunately, Wiz only took a deep breath:

"No, no, it's not that. I paid for it myself, so it would be too wasteful to destroy it. I just use it to water the flowers."

She lowered her head shyly, poking at each other with her fingers.

“Mr. Barnier, you also know that we liches have unlimited lifespans. As long as we take good care of that child, that child will one day grow to a level that surpasses mine.”

"It's not impossible to surpass the Demon King."

“…” Barnier laughed in anger.

You actually used that potion, which is comparable to the creation of a god, to water flowers?

He said that with a rather proud air.
