I let the genie out of the bottle

“There’s no need to be so polite. We’ll probably have a lot more time to spend together in the future,” Lu Ye said gently. “If you keep focusing on formalities like this, it will make our interactions quite complicated.”

"Yes, thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty." The leader of the Magic Society's female wolf lowered his head, cold sweat gradually beading on his forehead.

Do you spend a lot of time together?

Could this newly born god-slayer have his eye on the Italian magic society?

He realized something from Lu Ye's words, but he was also praying that his guess was wrong.

After all, this is the territory of that Sword King.

Although he is not present at the moment, if this seventh Godslayer really wants to seize the allegiance of all the magic societies in Italy, then there is a high possibility that the two Godslayers will fight.

It's hard to say what will happen to the last two god-slayers, but those caught in the middle are probably not having an easy time.

Lu Ye could roughly guess what these guys in front of him were thinking, but he didn't care.

He is greedy, so he will not let go of any opportunity, whether it is a small gain or a big profit.

He is selfish, so as long as he can get what he wants to do, he doesn't care what other people think.

"You are a wolf from Zhongshan, arrogant and rampant when you gain power," is a sarcastic saying.

However, as long as one can remain humble and not become arrogant, what's wrong with being unruly?

"Well then, I have a few small matters I hope you can help me with. What do you think?"

Lu Ye said in a calm tone, "Harmless."

However, a faint, malevolent aura emanated from his body.

"We are willing to do our utmost to fulfill your orders."

The elite magicians of the Italian Magic Society stationed in Rome lowered their proud heads.

Chapter Thirty-Four: Ning Can Do Alchemy?

"Your Majesty, please come with me. Let me take you to your temporary lodgings."

Liliana stood respectfully in front of Lu Ye, her face filled with unconcealed bitterness.

When Lu Ye mentioned that he needed a temporary place to stay, the female wolf commander immediately suggested that the Bronze Black Cross take care of settling him in.

As for the reason, it's because Lu Ye and Liliana already know each other and are quite familiar with each other.

It was obvious that she saw Lu Ye as a hot potato and couldn't wait to get rid of him.

Although he noticed this, Lu Ye didn't seem angry.

However, in her heart, she silently doubled the number of tasks she planned to assign to the [Female Wolf] magic society in the future.

In this world where god-slayers run rampant, Lu Ye is already considered quite considerate and gentle.

Moreover, the reason he didn't refuse...

Among the members of the Mystic Side present, only Liliana was a young and beautiful girl.

As for the others, you can tell from their appearance that few are under forty years old.

Lu Ye is not a member of the "looks-matter" club; he just happens to be adhering to the principles of such a club.

Moreover, seeing Liliana, the girl with whom he had previously had a conflict, with a look on her face that seemed to yearn for him to refuse, Lu Ye felt compelled to agree.

The result is that—

The usually serious knight girl involuntarily pouted, feeling like she was about to cry.

Because she was once conscripted by Marquis Voban to perform a ritual to summon a disobedient god, Liliana herself had a certain shadow over god-killers.

Now, they must face Lu Ye, a newly minted god-slayer...

Lu Ye could see the fine beads of sweat on her forehead.

Especially before Lu Ye became a god-slayer, she had fought against him, trying to stop him from going to the Temple of Mars.

She has never regretted this matter to this day.

Because she was indeed doing what she was supposed to do; the only pity was that she lacked the strength to prevent the disaster from happening.

It's important to understand that although Mars the Disobedient was eventually returned to mythology, the calamity of the incarnation of the disobedient god in Rome still had a significant impact.

However, even so, she felt uneasy, fearing that Lu Ye would pursue the matter from before.

Her feelings at this moment were like those of the bully who had once humiliated Han Xin but later learned that Han Xin had become successful.

Panic.

"Are you afraid of me?"

Following behind her, Lu Ye suddenly asked.

Are you worried that I might hold a grudge against you because of what happened before and take revenge?

"Ahem——"

In an instant, her azure eyes widened in shock, and she let out a terrified scream.

"Um—" A few seconds later, she calmed down, her face flushed with embarrassment, and turned around respectfully, saying, "Your Majesty, there is no such thing."

You definitely shouldn't say things like you're worried the other person will be petty and retaliate.

Otherwise, you might offend the other party.

So-called god-killers are a group of capricious individuals.

In other words, no matter who it is, once they possess power sufficient to transcend human society, it becomes difficult for them to be bound by the morality and laws of that society.

"There's no need to worry about such a small matter. Please rest assured, I'm not the kind of person who holds grudges."

Lu Ye shook his head and sighed, seemingly feeling helpless about the girl's excessive wariness.

"Is that so?" Upon hearing this, the knight girl relaxed a little.

"Speaking of which, I seem to remember stabbing you in the abdomen with a sword, right? Has your injury healed?" Lu Ye asked, seemingly out of curiosity.

Upon hearing this question, Liliana instantly felt the wound in her abdomen begin to ache again.

Although spells can be used to heal injuries, generally speaking, it is rare for slightly deeper injuries to be completely healed by spells.

The reason, it seems, is to avoid the body becoming dependent on magic.

Therefore, Liliana's abdominal injury can only be described as having undergone partial treatment and has not fully recovered.

Liliana naturally had no intention of hiding anything and answered honestly.

After all, she didn't see any benefit in hiding her current physical condition.

"Oh, I understand." Lu Ye nodded gently.

Then, he reached out and gently patted the girl's abdomen, which was still recovering from her injuries.

"Ouch—that hurts!"

It really hurts, I almost cried.

Liliana felt incredibly wronged.

But... there was nothing they could do but endure it.

Knew it.

Seeing Liliana's aggrieved expression, Lu Ye's mood immediately improved.

Bullying others is indeed a great way to make yourself happy.

"Wang, were you a lone magician before?"

Although she was internally cursing, Liliana still had to do everything she could to keep Lu Ye from getting bored on this journey, in order to avoid any unforeseen circumstances.

Therefore, she was also trying to talk to Lu Ye to pass the time spent on the road.

"A lone magician?" Lu Ye thought for a moment and shook his head slightly. "I probably wouldn't qualify."

"Then, Your Majesty, before you killed the god, who were you?" Liliana asked curiously.

"I think..." Lu Ye touched his chin, and an answer came to his mind.

"I remember you have some alchemists here, right?"

he asked.

“Yes.” Liliana nodded. “A group of people who pursue the transformation of matter, explore the truth of this world, and hope to gain knowledge and eternity.”

At this point, she seemed to have thought of something.

"I've heard that there are some mysterious groups in the East, very similar to alchemists, who seek to achieve immortality through alchemy—"

"Your Majesty, could you perhaps be an alchemist?"

Lu Ye paused, and noticing this, Liliana obediently stopped as well.

"it's not true."

Do you know about Jia Yi's "Ode to the Owl" from the Western Han Dynasty in China?

Lu Ye asked with a profound and inscrutable expression.

"Jia Yi's 'Ode to the Owl'..." Upon hearing this, Liliana showed a look of shame, as if she was ashamed of her lack of knowledge. "I have only heard of this article and do not know its contents."

"Ah." Lu Ye nodded, indicating that he understood.

Actually, this is normal. Even in China, many people only knew the name of "Ode to the Owl" when they learned about Jia Yi as a person during their school years. Therefore, there is no need to feel ashamed.

“There is a line in this poem,” Lu Ye said in a transcendent tone, “that heaven and earth are the furnace, and creation is the craftsman; yin and yang are the charcoal, and all things are the copper.”

"I am not an alchemist. For me, what needs to be explored is actually the universe and all things in the world."

P.S.: I'm so angry, I'm about to explode!

Chapter Thirty-Five: Let's Spend Our Lives with Books

How do you feel about the development of magic in this world?

Lu Ye was sitting at his desk, holding a magic book sent by the Bronze Black Cross, and silently asking the little devil a question.

"How rubbish! Are all the humans in this world a bunch of useless trash?" Mozlis clicked her tongue softly, her face filled with undisguised contempt.

Lu Ye continued to carefully consider the contents of the magic book in his hand, showing no reaction to Mozlis's words.

For a beginner like him, the content of this book was already quite profound.

Now that he has acquired the identity of a god-slayer, he naturally won't hold back.

The idea that god-slayers fight against disobedient gods, and that mystical magical forces offer their power, is a consensus in this world.

It's incomprehensible when someone can't adapt to their situation and is always being dramatic.

In the past few days, he ordered all the magic forces in Italy to collect as many magic books as possible for him.

Although I couldn't learn too much in a short time, I still gained something.

"Trash...why would you give such a rating?"

"Almost all knowledge of magic is based on mythology, seeking power by begging the so-called gods of this world. There is absolutely no direct use of the rules of this world."

Lu Ye immediately understood.

Mythological systems are themselves a product of humankind in this world, or perhaps the greatest masterpiece.

After learning about the mythological system, they only knew how to indirectly use power through the mythological system, thus forgetting how to bypass the mythological system.

This is like forgetting how to walk because you have a car.

Moreover, there is an even more important point.
