Roa remains silent, his expression unchanged.
Seeing Roa's expression, Freya understands everything.
Helpless, Freya sighs, tired of talking to Roa, and directly says to everyone, "Forget it, let's go."
Claire and Rinslet exchange glances, seeing a hint of confusion in each other's eyes.
Roa stands at the teleportation array and says to the two behind him, "Let's go."
Freya's words do have some truth, but Roa feels there is no need for that.
After getting Est, Roa has become increasingly arrogant. To be honest, if it came down to a contest, even Greyworth would definitely not be a match for Roa.
Team competitions require some time before the next match continues. With nothing to do, Roa casually asks the two behind him, "Do you need me to guide you? In terms of Blade Dance techniques."
Rinslet excitedly exclaims, "Is that possible? Then I'll count on you!"
Claire is a bit unhappy, but seeing Rinslet's excited expression, she just pouts and says nothing.
Roa spends the morning teaching the two, and in the afternoon, he continues his training related to being a spirit tamer.
The development of abilities is not something that can be achieved overnight; a new system requires more time to adapt.
All along, Roa has been leading himself, focusing on going in hard alone.
But now that he has Est, the abilities of the white-haired little loli are undeniably strong, and having white hair is equivalent to having a built-in buff.
Following the principle of practice leading to true knowledge, Roa finds a secluded place to continuously hone his Blade Dance.
Thus, time slowly passes, and it becomes evening.
In Ellis's dormitory, Roa follows his usual routine: eating, chatting with Ellis, and then returning to his room.
Est pops her head out, quietly borrowing Roa's divine might, snuggling up to him, hugging his arm, with a satisfied expression on her face.
"I feel like I've come back to life."
Roa: ???
Listening to the little white-haired girl's outrageous statement, Roa is left speechless.
He pushes the little white-haired girl aside and sits at his desk, sketching on paper.
Est peeks over curiously, watching Roa's movements.
The notes are about magical research.
Because Roa's magical power is very special, it has unique uses, allowing for many creative applications.
However, the techniques he can think of have mostly been developed.
The plasticity of magical power, converting magical power into threads, and other simple yet practical techniques are also being continuously developed by Roa.
Est looks confused at the pen that keeps sketching and moving in front of her, but she doesn't need to understand.
Like a little cat, Est rubs her head against Roa's arm.
As Roa thinks, he reaches out to stroke Est's forehead, and she shows an expression of enjoyment.
Research shows that petting cats can bring joy, and interacting with cats can release various neurotransmitters in the human body, such as serotonin, dopamine, and endorphins, creating a sense of pleasure.
Roa doesn't have a cat, so he can only pet the little white-haired loli.
While feeling happy, it also helps Roa improve his focus.
Half an hour later, Roa goes to bed, holding Est as he falls asleep.
The softness in his arms makes Roa feel relaxed; Est is a great pillow, reminding him of the feeling of being held by Roxy in his childhood.
But this time, that girl does not appear again, and the dream ends here.
A night without dreams, the next morning, when Roa opens his eyes, he looks at the ceiling.
This time, Roa wakes up very early. His rest time is already short; human sleep is merely to compensate for daily consumption. Since Roa has not consumed anything, why would he need to compensate?
Roa's gaze shifts from the ceiling to the window, where everything outside is a gray blur.
Estimating the time, it is probably around five or six in the morning.
Getting out of bed, Roa found that Est had also woken up long ago.
The days were nothing special; as usual, he trained Claire and Rinslet, and during his leisure time, he chatted with the witch.
Suddenly, a week had passed. During this time, Roa trained with Claire and Rinslet and engaged in battles with the three teams again.
As Freya had said, to help Claire and Rinslet develop their teamwork, Roa simply let the two little ones go first, waiting to step in once they either won or lost.
Of course, two against five mostly resulted in more losses than wins.
However, they did manage to win sometimes. Whenever the two were knocked down for one reason or another, Roa would step in promptly, executing a smooth combo that took down the five opponents.
Today's weather wasn't great; the once blue sky was shrouded in haze, and dark clouds gathered above, hinting at the possibility of rain.
The three gathered together, discussed, and decided to take a day off, each packing their own things.
Roa then went to the library, took a book from the shelf, and sat down to read.
Ignoring the eager gazes around him, Roa held Est in his arms and focused on the contents of the book.
Since Roa had killed a team by himself for the second time, rumors related to him had spread throughout the academy.
It is undeniable that powerful individuals are respected wherever they go.
This was also true here. Compared to the time when he first arrived at the academy, after the novelty wore off, viewing Roa from an objective perspective revealed that he was quite a good person.
Just as a girl was nervously preparing to say something, a sound of something breaking through the air was heard, and an unknown object shattered the window. The students were startled, and Roa frowned as he caught the thrown item.
It was an ordinary knight's longsword, thrown with great speed, but even at that speed, it was still limited to an ordinary person; it was naive to think it could harm Roa.
The knight's sword glimmered coldly as Roa weighed it in his hand and turned his gaze toward the direction from which it was thrown.
