The story of the black silk female knight

Melody raised an eyebrow:

"You just said it yourself, you still can't see through Chiba's invisibility, and you didn't remember her scent back then... Could it be that you just got lucky?"

"How could it be luck?"

Valensa said irritably:

"Have you forgotten that before the third attack, I not only sheathed my sword and shield, but also closed my eyes? That was the only thing I could think of at the time."

"Oh?"

The students stared wide-eyed, and even the glamorous female teacher seemed a little curious.

"CaoCao's invisibility technique is indeed very impressive..."

Valensa then praised the Thousand-Leaf Grass's invisibility ability again before slowly explaining:

"She leaves absolutely no trace after she becomes invisible, so even the best eyesight is useless. She also makes no sound, and with the cover of fake green leaf blades whistling through the air, hearing is of little use either."

At that time, I hadn't yet memorized Cao Cao's scent, so tracking it using either smell or taste was equally impossible... So, wasn't there only one way?

"You mean...touch?"

This time, it was the descendant of the legendary swordsman Ryan who spoke up. His eyes were bright, as if this was the part he couldn't understand the most.

"Yes."

Valensa smiled and nodded:

"I can roughly guess what Cao Cao is thinking... Rather than defeating me directly, she wants me to be unable to bear the pain and admit defeat on my own."

Therefore, she definitely wouldn't go all out, but would instead inflict shallow wounds on me multiple times... As it turns out, my guess was completely correct.

But forces are reciprocal. No matter how good Cao Cao's invisibility is, she will always leave a directional force on me when she attacks.

I used my slightly more sensitive sense of touch than normal to carefully sense the reverse of force, which allowed me to deduce Cao Cao's approximate location before I grabbed her...

What happened next should be easy to understand, right? After being captured the first time, Cao Cao escaped from me using ninjutsu, but she left behind her shoes and tabi socks, which I used to track her scent..."

"..."

The students fell silent for a moment.

Can you use the direction of your tactile sensation to deduce the enemy's location while being stabbed?

Is this something an ordinary person could do?

"so what?"

Melody rolled her eyes at Valensa, clearly annoyed.

Are you trying to say that your sense of touch is more sensitive than normal because you can cook?

"correct."

Valensa nodded solemnly:

"Touch is also a very important skill in cooking... Many ingredients need to be touched by hand to sense their condition and handle them in the most appropriate way. What's wrong with me, as a chef, having a sensitive sense of touch?"

"It's nothing... I just feel like I've wasted the last ten years or so of practicing swordsmanship. I should have learned to cook from a master chef."

Melody pursed her lips, clearly not believing Valensa's nonsense at all.

However, everyone has their own opportunities. Even the War Academy will not forcefully inquire about the secret techniques the students possess; they only care about their grades.

"Valenza is indeed very outstanding. Even though it was her first time facing a secret technique she had never seen before, she was able to stay calm and find a solution with clear thinking."

The glamorous female teacher first commented on Valencia, then abruptly changed the subject:

"However, Valencia clearly managed to do it through her unique and special skills, which is not suitable for everyone to learn... So, as your teacher, I will teach you a method that anyone can master through training."

"Come."

The glamorous female teacher then beckoned to the thousand-leaf grass:

"Use your invisibility to attack me."

"...Uh, teacher, you're bullying me!"

Chiba was clearly unwilling, but not wanting to play the role of a disobedient child, she could only try to refuse using a cute, coquettish tone:

"How could someone's invisibility technique possibly work on you?"

"Don't worry, I won't use any power beyond the Pearl level."

The alluring female teacher smiled and winked at Qianyecao:

"And I'll give you a chance... If you can fool me with invisibility once, I can give you special tutoring and teach you how to defeat Valensa... You must really want to win back, right?"

"Varied……"

Thousand-leaf grass was immediately captivated.

Although she was confident in her abilities, Valencia's explanation made her realize that Valencia's title of top student was well-deserved.

If we could learn some of Valencia's weaknesses from her teacher, it would definitely be much easier to defeat her.

Moreover, Chiba could roughly tell that although the alluring female teacher in front of her was very strong, she was definitely not a Yao-rank powerhouse.

The Leaf Concealment Technique, a secret technique passed down by the Chiba family, is said to be invincible among those below the Radiant Rank.

If she only manages to fool the other party once, Chiba Grass feels that her success rate is quite high.

"Then I'll have to offend you, teacher~~"

With a cute, tilted-head smile, Chiba once again leaped back into the air, formed hand seals, and shot out a barrage of green leaves towards the alluring female teacher.

"Wood Spirit Technique: Flying Leaf Blade!"

Even though they knew it was just an illusion used to complement the invisibility spell, many students still stared wide-eyed... They couldn't see any flaws in these illusions.

"Humph."

But the glamorous female teacher didn't even move her feet. She simply flicked her wrist, causing the whip to coil in mid-air like a snake hunting its prey, and pulled Qianyecao out of hiding and tied her up tightly.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeee..."

The thousand-leaf clover struggled a few times, but couldn't break free, so it puffed out its cheeks and pouted:

"You caught me in one go... Teacher, you must be cheating! This is definitely not something a Pearl-level power could do!"

Chapter 48 Carnivorous Female Teacher

"Cao Cao, you're mistaken. The teacher didn't use any power exceeding the Pearl level."

Seeing Centaur get its comeuppance made Valensa happy, and she smiled amicably.

"If you fail, you should admit it gracefully; that's a lady's virtue!"

“Ummmmmm…”

The thousand-leaf clover's cheeks became even plumper:

"How do you know how much strength the teacher used? Is it because you can cook, or is your eyesight a little better than others?"

"correct."

Valensa nodded solemnly:

"In cooking, paying close attention to the color changes of ingredients is a fundamental skill; without excellent observation skills, you cannot make good dishes."

I can't speak for other things, but at least the way the teacher grabbed you just now, the strength, speed, and skill he used were all at the level that even a Pearl-level warrior could achieve.

If you don't believe me, you can ask other students with good observation skills... like Ryan, for example. He's a descendant of the Sword Saint, his noble character is evident to all, he wouldn't lie to you, would he?"

"Valenza is right."

Seeing that Thousand Leaf Grass was looking at him, Ryan readily nodded:

"The move the teacher just made was definitely something only a Pearl-level expert could use. In fact, with Chiba's eyesight, he should have been able to see it too."

"Wow wow wow..."

The thousand-leaf grass made several very unwilling sounds, then its eyes darted around:

"Maybe the teacher used magic? Valensa and Ryan have great eyesight, but you're just warriors, right? How could you possibly see through magic?"

This is clearly sophistry, because that glamorous female teacher looks like a warrior no matter what, and the magic department teachers don't even have their practical combat classes here.

But Chiba was very skillful. She made full use of her petite and cute appearance, making her sophistry not at all annoying. At most, people just wanted to pat her head hard.

The few magicians among the students simply smiled and did not directly refute them.

This displeased Valensa, who glared at Harry with a slightly fierce look and mouthed a silent threat:

Come out and speak up for me, or I won't invite you next time I cook something delicious!

"……Well."

Harry was speechless. He looked at Melody and Giru, only to find that both of his companions had looked away, clearly having been won over by Valensa's delicious food.

Unfortunately, Harry could only speak on behalf of the wizards among the students:

"The teacher didn't use any magic either; there were no magical fluctuations here just now."

"This……"

Thousand-leaf clover has completely run out of excuses.

"Okay."

The glamorous female teacher patted Qianyecao's head reassuringly.

"Actually, the Chiba family's invisibility technique is really amazing. Even I can't see through it... The reason I was able to sense your location is entirely your own fault."

"...My own fault?"

Chiba first pretended to be obedient, rubbing her hand against the glamorous female teacher's palm. She then glared at Valensa with a mocking expression and made a face before asking curiously:

"Is it because my cultivation is not enough?"

"You could say that."

The glamorous female teacher smiled and nodded:

"Think carefully...when did I just find you?"

"Emmm... I was just about to use the illusion to attack you, teacher, when... Ah!"

It seems that the thousand-leaf clover has finally figured it out:

"Teacher, you didn't see through my invisibility, but sensed my attack intention? I've heard my older sister say before that there are excellent warriors who, even without any special abilities, can use their honed experience and intuition to sense the hostility and killing intent we release at the moment of attack."

"That's right, this is the technique I'm going to teach you next."

The glamorous female teacher smiled and nodded:

"The ability to sense killing intent is a skill that, like the spiked sword technique that Teacher Dotarot taught you before, is very difficult to master completely, but it doesn't require any training threshold. As long as you are willing to work hard, you will achieve some results."

Once you master this technique, you can not only deal with enemies skilled in stealth, but also maximize your combat effectiveness in environments where your senses are severely affected.

"correct."

The glamorous female teacher then cracked her whip in the air again:

"Because of that duel between your top student and the transfer student, I haven't even introduced myself yet... Come to think of it, this is the first practical lesson I've given you."

I'm certainly not as famous as Professor Dotalok; I'm just an ordinary Lighthouse-level expert, but perhaps some of you have heard rumors about me… You can call me Professor Edvina.”

"Edwina?" xN

Many students' eyes lit up.

Melody's eyes lit up, as if she had met her idol:

"You are the senior Edvina, known as the Asura Woman? I heard about your legend from the bard in the tavern back home!"

Legend has it that you once ventured alone deep into the desolate lands to gather intelligence. Discovered by the Beastmen, you fought your way out, luring nine elite Beastmen warriors into a pitch-black place, where you successfully turned the tables and killed them all… The technique you used back then was the ability to sense killing intent, right?”

"Hahaha...that's just the bard exaggerating."

Edwina covered her mouth and giggled:

"There weren't actually nine enemies... there were only six. I lured them into the ruins beneath the Barrens and fought them for a while in the darkness before finally taking them down."

When I returned to the meeting point with my companions, I found that they all thought I was dead... and were sorting through my belongings and mourning me... those guys.
