Chapte 27 Professionalism
update icon Updated at 2025/8/7 14:10:12

The victories in the three team battles have caused panic among the three knight squads. After all, gaining 17 points in just three days speaks to our strength. And they didn't even dare to challenge us in return. Really, if we were still leveling up quickly like before, defeating you all would be a piece of cake. There's no need to panic about something like this.

But I have to admire their professionalism, persistence, and ability to take risks. Because on the same night we were celebrating Marsha joining our guild, they immediately launched the challenge after midnight.

Oh, of course, when I say celebration, we just bought some extra side dishes. The food was the same as usual.

But that's not the point. The point is that they all simultaneously challenged Princess Annie! I think we should give each of them the title of "Suicidal," not just me.

"This is not just excessive, it's abnormal," Aliyah said angrily upon hearing the broadcast.

"Uh..." Marsha seemed like she wanted to say something, but faltered and remained silent.

"Don't mind them. Even though they used to be your comrades, there's no need to pay attention to them. You are our comrade now," I said with a smile to Marsha.

That's right, Marsha has been completely abandoned by them now. Her resignation was actually announced less than ten minutes after the battle ended, as if it had been prepared in advance.

Yes, it was prepared.

And they even wanted to take away Marsha's weapon, claiming it was the knight squad's public property. But when Bai Yueguang and I confronted them, they ran away like cowards.

They're just useless.

"These useless people are really annoying... No, I've been annoyed for a long time," Aliyah seemed eager to take them all down.

"That's right, we were originally following the plot, but... it's still annoying," Bai Yueguang nodded.

"Sorry... I caused trouble for everyone because I lost. Should I just quit? In that case..."

"What are you talking about?" Dale pushed up his glasses and said, "Even if we maintain this performance, even if we forfeit all three matches, we would only lose three points in a day. In fact, if we go all out, they don't stand a chance, considering we can challenge them in return."

"Dale is right, even if they all challenge us, we can just challenge them back, so there's no need to worry," I also nodded.

"But I..."

"I said don't worry, Princess Annie. You're actually very strong, don't you know?"

"Fir, um..." Bai Yueguang wanted to stop me, but Aliyah and Dale stopped him at the same time.

"Am... I strong?"

"If I'm not mistaken, you can actually use Forbidden Magic, right?"

"How... how did you know? But, that... I can't control that power at all."

"Forbidden Magic?" Fran became interested and walked over.

"The water-based Forbidden Magic of the Witte Empire, it sounds interesting. What is it? Tell me."

"I... um..."

Princess Annie seemed a bit hesitant, her eyes constantly flickering.

"How about this? You tell me your Forbidden Magic, and I'll teach you a water-based Arcane that you can use."

Princess Annie's level hasn't increased much, she's only level 16, so she should be able to use Arcane Magic with some effort.

"Water-based Arcane? Do you know water-based Arcane?"

"Yeah, I have some knowledge of it."

"But..."

"Let's do this."

I reached out and placed my hand on her forehead, then pressed the 'teach' button next to "Arcane Tsunami".

Princess Annie's gaze became vacant for a moment, but after a while, she returned to normal.

"I... What is this... I feel like a magic has just appeared in my mind! What's going on..."

"Alright, I have told you about magic, now it's your turn to tell me about your forbidden spell."

"Uh, I mean, how did you do that just now? "

"It's complicated to explain. Just think of me as someone who has read a lot of books and became a human library. Anyway, let's talk about forbidden spells."

"Um... can you tell me another Great Ultimate?"

"Well..."

I stared at her for a while.

"Are you sure? You should not be able to use that kind of magic right now."

"It's okay! Just tell me."

I sighed and placed my hand on her forehead again.

But this time, everyone in the room leaned in, even Lanya took out a strange device and pointed it at us.

"Hey, what are you guys planning to do?"

"Research."

Lanya said casually.

And the others nodded at the same time.

"Because even if we ask you, you won't be able to explain it, so we have to research it ourselves."

"..."

I have to admit she was right, except for one thing.

It's not that I don't want to say, it's that I don't know why either.

But I still taught her another magic I knew.

[Great Ultimate·Torrential Rain·Corrosion]!

"Wow... such a powerful magic... I can feel it."

Princess Anne suddenly became excited.

"Um... these magics..."

"Don't worry about it, I learned them casually."

If those people who have been studying in the magic tower for decades heard me saying this, would they spit blood?

"Well... since that's the case, let me tell you about my forbidden spell."

Princess Anne paused and continued.

"I have mastered a forbidden spell called [Marie's Dream Scream], it's a water magic, but... I can't use it because... it can only be used right after waking up... and I have insomnia."

Special Mission: Dream of Marie

Completion condition: Hold hands with the wielder of the forbidden magic [Marie's Dream Scream], enter the dream realm, and defeat Marie

Completion Reward: Obtain Marie series magic

"Please hold my hand and sleep with me!"

"Uh?"

"You're really daring, to say such things. After all, I am a princess..."

Lanya chuckled.

"I'm also a princess, why didn't you come to me!"

Princess Cher shouted loudly.

"Focus, people! Hey!"

"Alright, we'll talk about this later... the other side has arrived."

Looking outside the house, it was already surrounded by countless names.

"Should we refuse the duel?"

Dale asked.

"No."

Princess Anne shook her head.

"I want to give it a try!"
