"Ginas-sensei, did I ask a foolish question?"

"Not foolish, but this question is too basic. Roxy, do you know what is important for a Mage?"

"Knowledge."

The demon girl answered without hesitation.

"Besides that?"

Ginas asked again.

"Innate Magic Power aptitude?"

Roxy was not too sure.

"Talent is indeed also important, but talent varies in height; do those without high talent have no way to delve into Magic?"

"Sorry, Sensei, I can't think of anything else."

Roxy lowered her head.

"You were an Adventurer, right? Then think: besides being Uncommon themselves, what else do Adventurers need."

"Uh, that's of course trustworthy Teammates."

"Anything else?"

"Excellent Weapon Armor Equipment is also important."

Ginas nodded, then said: "Similarly, for a Mage, External Object Assist is also important; there are many methods to Solve Mana Insufficiency.

You can inscribe Magic Circles to lower the Magic Power Requirement for casting a certain Magic, or produce some potions that temporarily boost Magic Power, thereby temporarily increasing the total Magic Power one can mobilize.

Besides these two methods, there is an even more Simple Effective way: replace it with a staff of better quality.

Everyone's total Magic Power varies in height, and all of these can be compensated for through External Objects.

Right, Roxy, the staff you're using now shouldn't be too good a kind, right?"

Roxy nodded.

"Then the way to Solve your Mana Insufficiency problem is very simple: you just go Directly and swap for a better staff.

As for staff selection, let's put it this way: the better the Production Material and Production Craft used, the Larger the Amplification the staff can provide to the Mage.

Of Course, comparatively, the price also becomes higher.

But you……"

Ginas spoke to here and Paused, looking at the boy behind the demon girl.

"I think you probably don't need to Worry about this problem."

Realizing what the Sensei before her was thinking, Roxy hurriedly Waved Hand: "This is my Private Matter, please don't Involve Broly."

Roxy knew that if she brought it up, with that kid Broly's generous Nature, he would Definitely give her a Very Good staff, but if she just accepted it with peace of mind like that, it would be too thick-skinned.

Even if they were true lovers, before becoming a Family, they shouldn't accept overly Expensive Gifts; moreover, between her and Broly, they were still only a Guard and Employer relationship, at most Plus a comparatively Intimate Friend relationship.

"Alright, Roxy, your Private Matter I don't care about; the question I've answered, do you have any other doubts?"

Ginas could see the Disciple before him's Self-esteem; although he knew Roxy and Broly these Two People's relationship was very good, since the girl had no intention of piercing the window paper, this wasn't something he as a Sensei should Manage.

"No more, Ginas-sensei."

Roxy Shook Head.

"When you can release Water Saint-Class Magic, remember to come Tell me, I'll help you record it in Credits."

Before Graduation, being able to become a Water Saint-Class Magician is definitely a big bonus item; Ginas didn't forget to mention it to the girl about to leave.

"Thank you, Ginas-sensei. After I can release Water Saint-Class Magic, I will definitely come Inform you."

Roxy bowed in thanks at the Front Door, then left with the boy beside her.

"Roxy, you want a staff?"

Walking on the corridor where Sunset light was spread, Broly Directly asked the demon girl beside him.

"I want, but you don't give."

Roxy nodded, yet Shook Head.

"Why?"

The boy was somewhat Confused.

"Do you know what is most important for friends Getting Along?"

Roxy stopped, turned around to look at him and asked.

"What is it?"

Broly looked at the girl in doubt.

"It is Equality."

The demon girl whose Cute profile was reflected by Sunset light said the answer with a serious and earnest Expression.

"Once between two people interacting, the value provided for the other is not Equal, then two situations will Appear.

Namely, one side will feel inferior about being unable to Give Out more Repayment for the other's extra contribution, or one side will feel at ease about the other's extra contribution."

"Roxy, you can Rest Assured, my contribution to you is completely Voluntary."

In the Aspect of Capturing Crystal Palace's acknowledged Capture targets, Broly is not Stingy with his own contribution.

"But I cannot accept your contribution with peace of mind."

Roxy's values do not Allow herself to ignore the contribution of those who treat her well.

"Then you can Repay me!"

Broly Stepped Forward One Step.

"What Repayment do you want?"

Clearly the boy was shorter than her by a head, yet it made Roxy involuntarily Step Back One Step.

She thought of the bold report she had made earlier, her lips pressed lightly, and her cheeks began to feel hot.

Fortunately, the sunset light was especially brilliant tonight, and the light happened to cover the red glow on her face.

【If he wants me to use a kiss as repayment, should I kiss him or not?】

Roxy became a little nervous, and at the same time, a subtle thought arose in her heart.

【Just using a kiss to exchange for a good magic wand, isn't that a great deal?】

If the boy proposed this kind of repayment requirement, Roxy thought, she probably would not refuse.

Just as the magic race girl was thinking wildly, Broly had already spoken his repayment requirement: "Roxy, you being able to feel happiness is the best repayment to me."

"Eh?!"

What's the deal with feeling a little disappointed inside?

"Happiness is too empty a thing, and your happiness doesn't do me any good anyway, Broly, please don't use this as an excuse to be good to me; otherwise, I will really feel pressured."

Roxy turned around and walked quickly, her two ponytails showing a light green color under the light, swaying back and forth behind the magic race girl.

"Pressure?"

Broly looked at the Crystal Palace Panel, where Roxy Migurdia's Happiness Value had risen by two points again, and really couldn't figure out whether this counted as pressure or happiness.

"Then I won't give you the magic wand; you figure it out yourself?"

Broly caught up and asked.

"Mm."

Roxy responded with a sound, and the Happiness Value did not decrease.

Obviously, she was not the kind of person who says one thing but means another.

"Then can I give you something else?"

Broly asked again.

"As long as it's not too precious and I can afford to repay it."

Roxy did not refuse.

"That's good."

Broly nodded; his Crystal Palace still held the ore mined in this cycle, gathering dust for a long time.

And according to the cycle when mining started, Roxy only needed to pay him the mining fee.

As for the cost of crafting it into a Magic Accessory, without rush, it would probably only need 50 Ranoa Gold Coins.

Roxy doesn't earn much now, just because as a student she didn't become an Adventurer, but if she became an Adventurer, the girl working hard and taking more high-paying commissions would definitely be able to earn this money.

Broly took off that night to the Nelis Kingdom, found the Wood Magic Tool Workshop again, and placed an order for the Crystal Love commission that was canceled last time.

However, regarding the crafting of Magic Accessories, he had some customization requirements: earrings, necklace, bracelet, anklet, all made according to what is more suitable for a magic race girl to wear.

Besides, the ore part that was originally for private use was changed into two Hair Chains, believing that tied on Roxy's two twisted breadsticks would look very good.

"Customer, your requirements have been recorded; regarding production time, it will probably take more than a month. May I ask where your residence is? Once the Crystal Love accessories are finished, we will go notify you."

Broly answered the other party; regarding his residence in Sharia, it left the person in charge of the Wood Workshop somewhat stunned.

If it were local, notification would be simple, but cross-border?

"No need for you to notify me; in a month, I will come over to this side again."

Broly also knew that asking the other party to notify cross-border was not too reliable, so he stated the situation of coming to look in person.

"Then, welcome Customer to visit again next time!"

The person in charge bowed respectfully to him, and Broly left the workshop.

The next day, Roxy asked him for leave.

"I am going to prepare to explore the Labyrinth with Rene, hunting some Magic Beasts to obtain Magic Stones."

The most expensive material for making a magic wand is the Magic Stone; Roxy planned to rely on her strength to hunt Magic Beasts in the Labyrinth and obtain Magic Stones of high enough quality, and according to her plan, she could probably reduce the cost of making the magic wand by more than half.

"During this period, Broly, you go hire new guards to replace us in guarding you."

Although Roxy had been a guard for eight months without encountering any attack incidents, after all, Broly is a rich child, so his safety still needs to be considered.

"Can I follow you to the Labyrinth?"

Broly asked.

"The Labyrinth is too dangerous for you now; you'd better obediently stay in Sharia."

Roxy decisively refused the boy's request to accompany them.

"I'm not afraid of the Labyrinth or anything, because I am very powerful."

Broly hurriedly said.

"Yes yes yes, Little Brother Broly is the most powerful; however, if you are really that powerful, you shouldn't need to hire us as guards, right?"

The Catgirl Rene had her hands crossed behind her head, and what she said made Broly give up the idea of showing off his strength.

He got Roxy to be a guard by playing the role of a weak and helpless Rich Young Master; if this persona was gone, would the girl stop being a guard?

"Then alright, you two pay more attention to safety."

Broly could only helplessly give up and openly follow them.

"Broly, you also take good care of yourself."

Roxy instructed him.

"See you when we come back."

Rene waved her hand and left together with Roxy.

As for Broly, he changed his clothes and secretly followed them.

Not being able to follow openly does not hinder him from secretly following.

Of course, Rene, as a Cat Beastman, has decent Perception, so he cannot get too close.

Water Creation, Refracted Surface Deploy, Optical Invisibility!

Water ripples surged around Broly.

The No-Underwear Water Flow Holy Light Technique he had never managed to learn before was actually figured out in This World.

During his days at the Magic University, through accompanying classes, Broly also learned a few things.

Deploying a Water Film around himself, refracting surrounding light, thereby achieving the invisibility effect trick, was merely One Of them.

In the case of being In Air, if people below don't know in Advance there is someone in the air, it is Almost Impossible to discover him converging his Breath and Flying in the sky.

"Blue Goddess descending from heaven, wave your staff and Freeze the World, Freezing Domain!"

The Labyrinth Environment is Not Suitable for using Fire Magic; conversely, Ice Magic derived from Water Magic is more Suitable.

"Well done, Roxy, next, leave it to me Meow!"

Roxy is Responsible for controlling the Monsters attracted over, while Rene uses her Iron Fist Claw to Conduct the harvest.

Wherever she passes, large numbers of Monsters controlled by Roxy's Freeze Field are easily torn apart by her.

The cooperation between These Two People is extremely tacit; even Level A Labyrinth Monsters are easily Hunted by them.

"Magic Stones have been collected, Roxy, when are we going back?"

Battle End, when gathering Monster Materials, the Catgirl asked.

"Wait a bit more, I want to Earn more money in This Side Labyrinth."

Roxy replied.

"But Rene smells stinky all over now, really want to go back and take a Bath, then lie on a soft bed to rest and sleep, in the morning, go mooch off Little Brother Broly's Home for delicious breakfast food."

The white Catgirl Complained; as a Cat Beastman, she likes Clean much more than certain Dog Beastmen surnamed Tedorudia.

"I want to Earn more money, after going back, Buy a Gift for Broly."

Roxy stated the reason why she continued Hunting other Monsters in the Labyrinth even after collecting the high-quality Magic Stones she needed.

"Usually, I receive much care from him; just as the Weather Gradually turns cold, I Prepare to Buy him a set of warm clothing."

"Eh, What Kind of clothing costs So Much Money?"

"It is clothing made of Fire Salamander Leather."

"Ah, Unexpectedly buying such an Expensive Gift?"

"If the Gift given is cheaper than what the other party uses daily, wouldn't it have no Meaning?"

"That's true too, then Rene come help too."

"Huh?"

"Rene also receives much care; when he treats you to meals, he always treats me too, and Benefit from him offering tribute to my clan, other students also offer tribute to my clan, Indeed should Properly Repay, so Rene just Endure a bit more, accompany you to Earn enough money to Purchase clothing made of Fire Salamander Leather Meow."

"Rene~"

"What, Little Roxy, could it be you're moved to tears by me?"

"No, I just want to ask you, want to Bathe?"

"Eh, how to wash?"

"Fire Magic Plus Water Magic, I can Generate Hot Water; although consuming extra Magic Power in the Labyrinth is Not good, As Long As we find a pit to hold water and Heat it, no need to sustain Cast, afterward use Magic Stones to Recover Mana, this is still No problem."

"That's wonderful Meow~"

When Roxy and Rene found a pit to hold water and Bathe, Broly who came along silently cleaned up surrounding Labyrinth Monsters that might come Disturb the Two People.

Time quickly passed another three days, Broly returned to Sharia in Advance; Roxy only came looking after returning to Sharia and passing one day.

"Broly, I'm back, Long Time No See, want to go Shopping together?"
