Chapter 1 Eruo

Eruo ran into the tavern in a huff, pushing open the door and heading straight for the bar, jumping onto a chair.

Her dumpling-like cheeks stared intently at Hillria. I'm watching you…

Watching…

Hillria's bartending movements slowed, and she almost made a mistake. Helpless, she put down the cocktail shaker and looked at Eruo, whose cheeks were puffed out like a little bun.

Hillria said, "What's wrong? Aren't you teaching the monster girls magic and divine arts? Why aren't you teaching them, and what are you doing here? And why are you staring at me like that?"

Eruo didn't answer, just stared.

Um, seeing Eruo not answering, Hillria's mouth twitched slightly. Then she stopped looking at Eruo, picked up the cocktail shaker, and prepared to continue mixing drinks.

As soon as she started, Hillria immediately felt a resentful gaze. She forcibly ignored it and continued mixing, but the resentful gaze seemed to be getting closer and closer. In the end, the drink still wasn't finished.

Helpless, she put down the shaker again, turned around, and was about to speak when she saw a face almost pressed against hers, and she took a step back in fright.

Looking at Eruo standing on the bar, Hillria reached out and rubbed her little face, then said, "Sit down properly and tell me what's wrong."

Eruo said, "I really can't teach those monster girls. They can't even cast a Fireball spell without making a mess. It's just torture."

"I'm tired. I can't teach them anymore."

Hillria put a glass of juice on the bar in front of Eruo and said calmly after listening, "So, the monster girls can already read? And they've successfully cast Fireball?"

Eruo immediately sat up straight, put down the glass, and said proudly, "Of course. Not only can they read, but with one Illumination spell, they can understand everything immediately."

"The Illumination spell allows people to instantly learn any language I know."

Hillria clapped her hands with understanding and said, "Look, you've already taught them to recognize words, and they've only been learning for a few days, yet they can already use Fireball. That shows you're teaching them very well."

"Besides, your former students were all at least epic-level people, right? They only came to you for guidance when they were stuck at a bottleneck, didn't they?"

Eruo lowered her head and thought about it, and it seemed that was the case. Hmm…

Hillria continued, "Now look at the monster girls. You're teaching them from scratch. Every step of the way has your involvement. If they become epic-level or legendary-level, it will all be your credit. Are you sure you want to give up on them?"

The more she listened, the more sense it made, and the more excited she became. Eruo immediately said, "Who said I was going to give up on them? I just… I just…" She saw the glass of juice. "I just came to have a glass of juice."

Eruo picked up the glass and drank it all in one gulp, put the glass on the bar, looked at Hillria, and said, "I'm done drinking. I'm going back to continue teaching them now."

After speaking, Eruo immediately jumped off the chair and ran out of the tavern.

Hillria watched Eruo run out and clicked her tongue, saying, "Hehe, after becoming a little kid, she's much easier to fool."

Hillria picked up the cocktail shaker and continued mixing, looking very happy.

…

Lynn flew in the air, looking around. Hmm, it's strange. How come I haven't seen a single ferocious beast? I've seen a few treasure chests, but there are obvious signs of ferocious beasts lurking around them.

Lynn saw another treasure chest and flew down, landing beside it. After opening it, he prepared to fly up and continue searching for treasure chests.

Just as Lynn was about to leave, he suddenly noticed something. Huh? What's this?

Lynn walked over and took a look. Good heavens, a huge scale appeared before his eyes.

Lynn compared it and found that the scale was bigger than he was. Geez, how big must the actual body be?

Let's identify it.

Name: Waterscale Python Scale

Category: Material

Effect: High-level material with a wide range of uses

{Waterscale Python scale, an extremely rare material}

After reading it, Lynn put the scale away. It's really strange. Logically speaking, with such a big scale, its owner must be huge. Why haven't I seen such a big target in the air?

Now when Lynn flew into the air to find treasure chests, he would pay attention to any signs around him.

Soon, Lynn gradually discovered some traces.

Looking at the huge walking marks on the ground in front of him, it looked like it had just left not long ago. Why haven't I seen even a glimpse of its figure?

This is really a headache. Lynn scratched his head. Really, not finding this guy makes finding a treasure chest a bit thrilling, afraid that it will suddenly jump out and swallow me in one bite.

Shaking his head to get rid of the image in his mind, he took another look at the walking marks and flew away.

Not long after Lynn flew away.

A meter-long snake swam out of the grass beside him, raised its horned head, looked in the direction Lynn left, flicked its tongue, and followed. https:/

After leaving the snake's path, Lynn didn't find any more traces. However, he saw a lot of ferocious beasts. After turning around the entire secret realm, he still didn't see the mysterious Waterscale Python.

Lynn returned to the sky above the large pool. He had opened all the treasure chests and obtained a large pile of rare materials. Should there be something that Little Aunt needs?

Not finding the mysterious python, Lynn prepared to leave the Waterscale Secret Realm. He flew down towards the clear surface of the large pool.

With a splash, water splashed everywhere, and Lynn plunged straight into the water, quickly diving downwards.

After feeling that strange sensation again, Lynn returned to the secret realm he was in at the beginning, filled with pools of water.

Lynn flew in the air, water dripping from his body, looking at the dense pools of water around him. How am I supposed to get out?

While Lynn was thinking about how to leave the secret realm, a snake came to the other side of the large pool.

The Waterscale Python looked at the large pool and then dived in, slowly reaching the bottom of the pool. However, it didn't find the strange beast. After turning around at the bottom of the water, it swam upwards.

Coming out of the large pool, the Waterscale Python flicked its tongue and then looked into the air. After looking for a while, it emitted a burst of light and disappeared.

A huge shadow suddenly enveloped the large pool. The Waterscale Python, having returned to its true form, coiled its massive body in the sky above the large pool, lowered its head, and looked at the large pool. After comparing it, it found that the large pool was a bit small.

After flicking its tongue, the huge body began to shrink slowly. It stopped when it had shrunk halfway, looking like it was about the right size.

The Waterscale Python flew in the air and, like Lynn, quickly plunged into the large pool.
