Chapter Twenty-Seven: Retilly's Change
Back in the dormitory, Yang Xi suddenly found that Retilly and Asuna, who had slept together when he was there, actually occupied a bed by themselves after he left.
Looks like I can't sleep tonight.
But fortunately, with Yang Xi's current physique, there is no need to rely on sleep to recuperate.
Gently moving the chair away, Yang Xi had just sat down, and Retilly, who was originally asleep, opened her eyes, "You're back?" β
"Huh? Woke you up. How do you know it's me? β
"Feel it. Ever since you left, this room has been patronized by a lot of people, and if it weren't for your stern-looking sister who calmed everyone down, I'm afraid that I and the little girl with orange hair would have been discovered by them! β
Of course, Yang Xi knew who the "they" in Radili's mouth were, and suddenly a wry smile appeared on his face, "Have you been fortunate to have suffered this time?" β
"It's not so much about the hardships, but it's better to say that it makes me quite interesting."
"Interesting? Now, Retilly, how about letting you come to IS School Park? β
"Going to school? Although I have no problem with my academic qualifications, will this school accept 'primary school students'? β
Retilly smiled self-deprecatingly, her body, which will never grow, is a hard injury!
"No problem, I've found something out there this time, and I've found a magic potion that will give you a chance to shape your body again."
"Oh? You mean the kind of magic potion that can make the body grow? β
"That's right." Yang Xi nodded.
"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, I've studied that potion and concocted it, but it doesn't work for me at all."
"How do you know my potion won't work if you don't try it?"
Yang Xi knew that the raw materials he provided were not only the flowers from the underworld, but also a drop of yellow spring water in the flowers. How can the effects of magic potions made from these holy materials be compared to ordinary magic potions?
"Okay~~"
Rettilly nodded indisquently. On the contrary, with her immortal body, even if she drinks poison, it will hurt for a while at most, and she will not be able to die at all, or she really hopes to have her life. However, since he has promised Yang Xi to find a reason to survive and start a new life. She has no desire to die for the time being.
took the test tube handed over by Yang Xi, opened the bottle, leaned in and sniffed it, "Most of the materials in it are the same as what I know, but it seems that something special has been added, I can't tell it, alas~!" β
As a shrine maiden who is good at divination, concocting magic potions is also her specialty.
"Don't sigh, it's surprising enough that you can smell the material inside! Drink it! β
"What is urging, the person who refines this bottle of potion is a great magician-level storage zΓ i. I'd like to look into it a little more. β
"What is there to study? If it works for you, I'll tell you the two raw materials you can't distinguish, and if it doesn't work for you, it's useless to study it again! β
"Well, since you say so"
As if the bottle of potion in her hand was some rare treasure, Radiri looked at it very reluctantly, and then swallowed it with her head up.
After waiting patiently for a few seconds, Retili spread her hands, "Look. I'll just say, what effect is it."
Before she could finish speaking, her face began to change drastically.
"Ah~~!!"
Retilly, who would not wail even if she was beaten into a sieve by a machine gun, actually let out a scream of pain, although she had already suppressed her voice. But it also woke up tomorrow, who was not far away.
"Why, you're back?"
When he opened his eyes, he saw a happy smile on Yang Xi's face, and he noticed the change in Retilly. Suddenly became panicked, "What's wrong with her?!" β
Yang Xi shook her head and motioned for her to be quiet.
Asuka, who realized it, also regained her composure. Patiently looked at Retilly.
At this time, Retili was already convulsing all over her body due to the severe pain, and her originally petite body was curled up in a ball. In a short period of time, her pajamas were already wet with sweat, and through the moonlight shining in through the window, her white and tender skin was looming.
But neither of the people in the room was in the mood to enjoy the wonderful scene.
After a while, she seemed to have stopped her life activities, and remained in that position.
"Retiri"
Calling softly, Asukina tried to touch her body with her hand, but quickly took it back, "It's so cold!" It's so hard! Is she dead?! β
"How could Retili die so easily, and I won't allow her to die in front of me! Calm down, she's in some kind of metamorphosis right now. β
"Metamorphosis?"
"Well, just like a worm wrapped in a cocoon, only by breaking through this tightly bound cocoon can it turn into a beautiful butterfly."
Yang Xi's analogy is somewhat inappropriate with Restili's current changes.
It's not so much a bug about to break out of its cocoon as a butterfly, but a snake that is molting!
That's right, the reason why her exterior is cold and hard is entirely because her outer skin is dead, and the essence inside her is constantly shrinking. When the time comes, he will give up his current body and form a new individual.
I don't know how long it was, but there was a dull vibration in the air.
Knock~knock~knock~
It's the sound of a heartbeat!
And it's getting faster and faster, as if some hibernating creature is about to wake up.
With a click, a crack appeared in Radiri's appearance, and then a white and tender hand like a newborn baby stretched out from inside!
Immediately afterwards, the head, body, and legs also fully appeared, and the original "shell" of Retili disappeared without a trace.
As if to indicate that the previous Restili has disappeared, and what remains is the new Restili!
Looking at the beautiful woman who appeared in the room, as if she had come out of the moon, Asuna Yuuki's eyes widened, and the scene in front of her had completely subverted her perception of science.
A mature woman who looks like she is in her twenties "walking" out of the body of a teenager, am I dreaming? Or have I not been resting well lately and am hallucinating?
Just when Tomorrow Nai was thinking nonsense, Yang Xi opened his mouth and asked, "Retili, how do you feel?" β
"Hmm. I do feel the feeling of being reborn, and this body is a thousand times stronger than the previous one, and the magic is the same. β
Although Rhaetie's body has stopped growing for nearly a thousand years, all the growth that should have been recorded by her body has been recorded. This time, with the help of Yang Xi's magic elixir, her thousand-year-old accumulation was completely developed, and the pain of the process was as if she had really died once.
At this time, Retilly, whether it is realm, physique, or magic power, has all reached the peak level that can be reached. Arguably. After thousands of years of hard work, she has finally risen!
is another helper at the peak of the SS rank, and a legendary magician who has lived for thousands of years.
Perhaps, she can make her power even further!
Looking at Retilly's uncovered jade body, Yang Xi said that his big gun was already hungry and thirsty!
If there's not a light bulb here, just push her to it and make her her one of your own.
For people like Retilly, who follow him halfway and don't have much emotional foundation, Yang Xi has always used the technique of double cultivation to strengthen the opponent's strength while controlling the opponent's mind. Turn his soul completely towards himself, thus avoiding the possibility of betrayal.
Retili was always going to be toppled down, but not now. Thinking that his sister was already stuck in the bottleneck and couldn't get up, of course he had to take the lead in helping as a younger brother.
As for Yuuki Asuka. That is, Asuna, although she is also the heroine of an anime, she can be called a woman with unlimited potential, but she is obviously not as obvious as the two "supporting characters" of Retilly and Oribana Chito. After all, she can only be regarded as an ordinary person in the daily department. There is nothing special about it, only the experience of taking it, that is, being involved in the "SAO incident"
So. Yang Xi didn't intend to let her gain much strength, or rather, he didn't intend to let her own strength improve.
βISβ
Her experience of the various life-and-death battles she experienced in SAO and Mythology can be revealed through guΓ² driving IS.
That's right, Yang Xi plans to train her to be the second "Brunhilde"!
As early as when he brought Yuki Assuna to the IS School Park, Yang Xi had already quietly called Shinozhishu and asked her to build a special machine.
Come to think of it,It won't be long before she can rightfully become a member of the IS School Park.γ
As for Retilly
Originally, Yang Xi thought that she would grow into a girl at most, but who knew that she suddenly became an intellectual beauty exuding a mature atmosphere! With her current appearance, let alone a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, no one will believe that she is a slightly more mature eighteen-year-old!
What to do? Or just let her become a teacher.
Just as Yang Xi was making arrangements for their future, Yuuki Asukina let out an exclamation that startled him.
"What's wrong?"
Asuna didn't answer, just covered her mouth with one hand, and pointed forward with the other hand tremblingly
Looking in the direction she was pointing, Yang Xi smelled a strong smell of blood at the same time.
I saw that Radiri used her magic power to form a sharp knife in the palm of her hand, and pierced her heart very calmly.
But what happened next was very strange, there was no blood splashed as expected, and there was no shock like blood gushing out like a fountain, just a small amount of blood flowed out as if it had broken a little skin.
Obviously, one of her palms is completely inserted!
When Retilly pulled out the palm that had been pierced in, Yang Xi and Assuna could clearly see that the ruptured heart was repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the severed ribs were quickly connected. But in the blink of an eye, the hideous wound on his chest had disappeared.
The smooth skin is restored as before, and there is not even a scar. (To be continued......)
