7. Throbbing
The Kraken can't walk on land, and although Riviathan has unexpectedly enough intelligence and magic to simulate the form of human feet, the most important abilities of these feet are not something she can imitate.
Before he fully mastered flying, Liviatan could only lie or sit like a disabled person, which seemed to be a little more difficult for Liviatan.
In terms of intelligence, she already has the wisdom equivalent to about twenty years old for humans, and the development of the kraken is very rapid, and in just a few days, she has already discovered that Liviatan's long hair, which is about to drag to the ground, has grown again.
However, when she returned home, Lilith found a scene that she had never thought of, or rather, this scene immediately calmed her restless heart.
It is no longer known when Leviatan, who had been lying or sitting, was transferred to a basin filled with water that was large enough to hold him, and most of them were the masterminds of this incident, his eldest daughter and youngest daughter, who were sitting there staring at Liviatan's tail motionlessly.
...... Calm down, Rena's matter, think about it later.
"Sister, if I have a tail, can I swim in the water?"
The youngest daughter tilted her head to look at her sister, while Liviatan shrank into the water, most of the time, out of shyness.
"Well, I guess that's okay. Mia nodded, "Liviatan, why can't the Kraken walk on land? You can also have a human form, as long as you study hard......"
"It was just an illusion. Liviatan swam to the edge of the basin and symbolically slapped a few splashes with his tail. "I don't have any human legs. Fish tails can't walk. But I don't want to change either. Once my teacher and I learned the magic, we were ready to fly. β
Liviatan, probably because of the relationship that was rescued by "Lilith", did not show any hostility towards himself and his daughters. Moreover, it seems that she also subjectively concluded that the person who saved her that day was herself.
Forget it, there is no need to explain, so maybe it will be convenient for you to teach her magic.
After the daughter. I started to have apprentices again, and this kind of life seems to be good.
"Well, I want to learn magic, too. β
Lilith complained, but quickly turned and threw herself into her arms.
"Mom!"
"Mother. "&" Teacher. β
"Don't worry about Liviathan, as long as you work harder, maybe tomorrow you can fly a little at a low altitude. β
Lilith asked, "How's your body recovering?"
"Very good, teacher, I have ...... It's almost always flying. β
It is not a scandal to have the talent of Chinese people. Liviatan has always been proud of his magical talents.
"Well, it's good to be able to keep it up all the time. But if you just be able to stay that way and not do anything else, then it's the same as not flying. β
Lilith explained, "With your qualifications, you shouldn't be a complacent Cheng dΓΉ who stays here, but you have to do it, keep afloat as a norm, and learn more magic on top of that." β
"Whew, I don't understand. β
"Ahem, sister, sister will take you out to play. β
"Now you can only float and move at low altitudes, but when you reach a maximum of 50 meters, you can't keep your balance, and to be honest, this kind of Cheng dΓΉ alone is not really 'flying'. β
After the daughters left, Lilith's tone became a little harsher. After all, apprentices are different from daughters, their daughters are the harbor of their own souls, and what they want to do is to give them the greatest tenderness.
And the words of the apprentice, not to mention, without strict guidance, there is no way for her to really learn, and ......
Why did he want to save Leviathan, he knows very well.
Kraken ...... is a natural magician, why not get such combat power for nothing. She must become a fighting force of her own.
Lilith hid the smile from the corner of her mouth, annoyed why she was thinking about such a thing at this time, in this place.
It must be because of Rena, that alchemist, it seems that his qualifications are not as good as he imagined. What is the difference between this and those magicians who were still laughing at themselves back then, no matter how bad their qualifications are, even if they work hard, they are in vain.
Damn, why would a woman who didn't have much to do with him hinder his mood with his daughters when he got along with this new apprentice.
It's time to spur her up.
"Don't be discouraged, Leviathan, you already have enough qualifications compared to other human magicians, as long as you study hard and don't just show off your qualifications, you will definitely be able to reach heights that ordinary people can't reach. β
"That'...... Can I be like the teacher?" Liviatan looked up, "I heard them say that the teacher is the most powerful magician. β
"Well, of course you can"
γHow is it possibleγ
Lilith once again showed a smile that didn't belong to the right now, "As long as you work hard, it's no problem to surpass me." β
[Even if you work hard for a lifetime, you can only listen to me forever.] γ
"Teacher?"
β...... Nothing, sorry. You have a good rest. I still have something. β
Lilith covered her forehead and walked out, perhaps not angry at Liviathan's words.
The comparison between creatures is the most normal, and I will not be so irritated because the apprentice has the idea of "wanting to surpass the master".
So, it must have been for other reasons just now, why did I suddenly have these inappropriate thoughts when I was still in this room, in the house where my daughters lived.
It's as if there is something that you can't control and can't figure out, and it's like you're disturbing your mind. However, in this world, is there anything that you can't control?
Go and solve Rena's matter, perhaps, it's just because of years of patience that I happened to meet Rena, an alchemist who can't satisfy me, and I caused my own irritability.
"Hmm. β
Headache, no, maybe dizziness is more appropriate now.
Why, I get dizzy?
Lilith landed not far from Rena's house, but it seemed that the dizziness did not lessen because the magic stopped. She looked more like her own actions......
That's right, every time I take a step closer to Rena's home, I feel further pain.
It cannot be expelled, and it seems that the only way to alleviate such symptoms is to retreat through guΓ².
What is this? Could it be that some god is telling himself not to enter Rena's house? A small number of gods are very just, and they will fulfill their obligations according to absolute rules, but now, this concept does not apply to them at all.
Because of myself......
"Whew, that's timely, that guy. β
Lilith glanced at the sky, although she didn't know who had fulfilled the agreement, but now there were even more strange things waiting for her.
Why should God interfere with himself, and any activity of his own in the human world should not violate their so-called rules. Is it because there is something extra in Rena's house, something that she can't see?
"Interesting. β
Lilith muttered, and entered Rena's room through the second-floor window as usual.
There are living people......
Lilith had just landed on the floor before she noticed something was wrong. That's right, right now, at my feet, most likely in the room downstairs, there is a living person.
She knows magic, because, she's trying her best to drain the breath of the zΓ i with a fairly advanced magic, but why...... This kind of magic is very similar to the trick I used before?
Does this have anything to do with God's intervention just now?
"Excuse me. Rena, are you still working at this late hour?"
"You!"
Rena exclaimed, but then covered her mouth and tiptoed downstairs, and soon, after returning to the room, Rena had an angry look on her face.
"Frey, is she asleep? β
"Don't try to beat my daughter's idea!We made a pact that I'm just responsible for taking your money and making what you want, and this has nothing to do with my daughter, witch!"
"But you're too slow to do it Rena. β
Lilith felt that she had probably found the source of her irritability this time.
Not because of Rena, but because of the guy who was eavesdropping downstairs and made him feel abnormal in his heart, "And didn't I say it? Your house, it's better not to have too many people, but even if I stand here today, I can know that there is another person 'sleeping' next to your daughter?"
"This ...... She was innocent, just the one who came to accompany my daughter. β
"Anyway, come on, Rena, my money isn't for you to squander like that. β
Lilith quickly ended the conversation, and now, the interest in the person who was still eavesdropping had completely outweighed the displeasure with Rena.
It seems that it is also interested in itself, and although I don't know why, if it walks away on foot, it will probably catch up.
"If you haven't finished it the next time I come back, then I'm sorry. You can keep your mouth shut, but I want to keep you shut up in the safest way. β
After a slight threat to Rena, Lilith gave up her original purpose and decisively chose to leave. As expected, the person who eavesdropped on it seemed to be planning to follow.
Did you follow...... Very well, then, just behind yourself, take a walk, and let yourself see what is the reason for you, let yourself as a witch ......
I feel nervous and expectant. (To be continued......)
