It was night, in the grove in the back garden of the castle.

Shadow stood quietly with her sword in hand, the woods in front of her in shambles, apparently just finished training.

Closing her eyes, the battle between Chestnut Squirrel and Valk suddenly came to her mind, and there was a struggle on her face.

"Mother, I can't keep up with my younger brother." There was some pain in her tone, some relief at the same time, and full of contradictions.

During this time, she has been trying to break through the Earth Knight, but this bottleneck has been stuck with her for three years, making her realize that she really does not have the talent to become a knight, even if she puts in so much effort, the official knight is already her peak.

She looked at the crescent moon hanging in the sky in the distance, and couldn't help but think of the queen's last explanation in her heart, and couldn't help but take a deep breath, and her gaze gradually became firm.

……

In the castle living room, Komatsu was napping on his desk, and his big tail swept on the table like a broom.

And Su Luo was thinking with the help of an oil lamp, biting a quill in his mouth, and he was planning Komatsu's training plan at this time.

Now that Komatsu's various race values and main moves have been raised to the maximum level, he has to prepare for Komatsu's evolution.

Although the system has the function of helping pet beasts evolve directly, he is not sure what Komatsu will become after evolution.

If it is a normal evolution, the race value of the chestnut squirrel clan must still be distributed in strength and speed, and it is more and more biased towards monsters that attack the object, and this is obviously a waste of the chestnut squirrel's ability to perceive energy.

From his observation of monsters in the recent period, even if it is the same race level and race value, the gap between different monsters is still very large, and even if he has an enhancement function, it is still difficult to make up for the innate gap between monsters.

"How do you get the chestnut squirrel to turn in the direction of magic?" Su Luo touched his chin, now that the Chestnut Squirrel's race value was full, all he could think of was to continue to strengthen the spirit of the Chestnut Squirrel and let it surpass the racial limit, but the cost of doing so was very large.

In addition to the race, all he can think of are moves and characteristics, just like the acceleration trait can further increase the speed of the chestnut squirrel, he thinks that maybe he can let the chestnut squirrel learn some spell-type moves, so that it gradually moves towards magic, as for the characteristics, he doesn't know what specific characteristics are magical, it should be more difficult.

In addition to the attributes, it may be possible to let the chestnut squirrel eat some resources with attributes, so that it gradually transforms towards the corresponding attributes, the chestnut squirrel is now no attributes, and the plasticity is still very high, and it can be transformed to any attribute.

It's a pity that the attribute can't be obtained through the system, and he needs to pay attention to it at ordinary times, which is not a small price.

"Theoretically, the evolution direction of monsters is diverse, and the more adequate the preparation before evolution, the better." Su Luo thought silently in his heart.

Knock knock~

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door of the study.

Squeak, squeak!

Komatsu's ears instantly pricked up, but he didn't open them immediately.

Su Luo looked over with some doubts, stood up and went over to open the door, and found that it was the shadow standing outside the door.

"It's so late, what's the matter?" Su Luo wondered and welcomed the shadow into the room.

"Your Highness......" Shadow said in a solemn tone, "I want to learn magic!" ”

"Learning magic?"

Su Luo was stunned for a moment, "But aren't you a knight?" ”

"The path of the knight has been difficult to catch up with His Highness." The shadow took a deep breath, "I want to continue to follow in the footsteps of His Highness!" ”

"My path doesn't necessarily work for you." Su Luo frowned and said, "You don't have to follow my path. ”

The shadow looked calmly at His Highness, who he had been guarding, and shook his head: "Your Highness's path is my way." ”

"If Your Highness can't teach me magic, I'll go and learn from other mages."

Su Luo was stunned for a moment, and hesitated: "It's not that I can't teach you, it's just that ...... I'm not sure if I'll make it, you're already a knight......"

"Knight." The shadow bowed slightly, and then saw the fighting qi in his body suddenly surge, and then suddenly overflowed out of the body, "It's not ...... now."

In order to learn magic, she actually dissipated the fighting spirit that she had trained for so long - Su Luo was stunned again, and her brows furrowed even deeper, I'm afraid this shadow is not sick, right?

But...... For the original third prince, the shadow really has nothing to say, even the third prince is willing to protect it with his own life.

Thinking of this, he sighed and smiled helplessly, "Okay, then I'll see if I can make you a mage......"

Letting the shadow sit down at the desk, he looked at Komatsu and stretched out his hand to beckon.

Squeak~

Komatsu reluctantly got up.

Then I saw it groping in the big tail behind him, took out the two magic crystals, and reluctantly handed them to his beast master.

Su Luo showed a helpless smile on his face, during this time, he had been strengthening other chestnut squirrels, and Komatsu had a very big opinion, so he thought of such a way to let Komatsu keep the magic crystal, which calmed the little guy's mood, but he wanted to pull out some magic crystals from Komatsu, and it was still a little troublesome~

After taking the two magic crystals, he began to absorb them, because Xiao Song was already in the state of the six gods at this time, and the reinforcement of the other chestnut squirrels had also been completed, so he did not absorb all the remaining magic crystals, and planned to withdraw the money in an emergency.

Soon, he successfully absorbed two magic crystals and gained 365 energy points, with a maximum energy value of 813 points.

"Shadow, are you ready? I'll teach you meditation right now. Su Luo asked, he felt that teaching the meditation method to the other party and letting the shadow meditate first should make the enlightenment a lot smoother.

"Yes, Your Highness."

After getting the response, Su Luo turned on the teaching function of the system, but this time the target of the teaching was no longer a monster but a human.

In an instant, the shadow felt her consciousness suddenly roar, and streams of information suddenly appeared in her mind, allowing her to master the method of meditation at once.

Closing her eyes and trying to condense her mental power according to the method recorded in the meditation method, she soon entered a meditative state.

"It worked, and so far there are no anomalies." Su Luo squinted slightly, it seems that this teaching of the system is very successful!

Squeak, squeak, squeak-

Komatsu stepped forward and looked at the shadow in front of him with a curious expression, it could also feel the fluctuations of spiritual power surging on the other party's body, and was very curious about what his beast master had done.

"This is the Beastmaster's meditation." Su Luo smiled, but the next moment he suddenly sighed lightly, looked at Komatsu, and at the same time focused on meditation.

"Meditation...... Can Komatsu learn to meditate as well? ”

Originally, because meditation was the reason for the Beast Master's move, he didn't think much about it, but now he suddenly moved a little, and according to the feedback from the system, Komatsu is indeed able to teach meditation, but the specific situation and effect are unknown.

If Komatsu can successfully learn the meditation moves, it will definitely be able to further increase its soul strength and spiritual race value, and may be able to make Komatsu move closer to the magic monster.
