Chapter 109: Propriety

~6 min read 1,185 words

Luo De is a man of propriety.

He never exposes others’ private matters to their faces.

Although he thought using a whip in such a situation was a bit odd, our forest warden was the type who had seen the world.

Elves’ restraints often lead to slight quirks in their thoughts and habits.

Respect.

Luo De stepped back two hundred meters.

He picked up a small stone and tossed it far away.

Tap—

A few seconds after the stone made a sound.

The magic treehouse snapped open abruptly; the elf, forehead slick with sweat, glared and scanned left and right nervously.

Until she saw Luo De waving at her from afar.

Although she had warned him before, this distance was far too great.

She seemed to realize something, her body stiffening instantly.

Overcome by guilt, Kali Site immediately recognized his blatant attempt to hide the obvious!

It must be because of recent research stress—she had forgotten to set up a soundproofing and alerting array again!!!

And the dignified, proud female elf had always outwardly despised such things.

Now that she was caught, she was already humiliated and furious enough to kill.

“Kali Site , haha, nothing much—I just wanted to ask you again about gravity magic, you see, there are so many bugs in the forest, their buzzing makes it impossible to hear anything.”

The elf’s expression darkened.

A faint blush appeared on the tips of her long ears; her hands clenched tightly into fists.

Realizing he had spoken wrongly, Luo De quickly backtracked:

“No—I mean, even if any sound was made, at this distance, no one could hear it.”

Whether intentional or not, he only made it worse.

Without a word, Kali Site hurled an ice spike.

Ping!

Blocked by Luo De’s [Darkness Seal].

“Alright, sorry—but I was definitely over a hundred meters away.”

“Shut up!”

The elf’s hands glowed with magic; thick vines erupted from the ground, wrapping tightly around Luo De.

As they tightened, the spherical shield of the [Darkness Seal] cracked.

“Forget it!”

“It’s perfectly natural—you see, every night with Tally I—”

“Don’t lump me in with you perverts!”

The vines surged violently, crushing the spherical shield—but were also blown apart by its explosion.

Although Luo De deliberately controlled it, he still blew off the bark of several nearby trees.

He looked heartbroken.

He remembered these trees—they had been infested with pests, and he had treated them daily to save them.

“Don’t fight in the forest!”

Kali Site paused, not casting another spell.

Her face remained dark.

“Forget everything.”

“Forget what? I don’t know anything.” Luo De sighed in relief now that she had stopped moving.

He didn’t want to hold onto this girl’s private matter.

Hearing this, the elf snorted coldly.

She turned and walked away.

Luo De had not forgotten the purpose of this trip.

He quickly called out to her, asking about his doubts regarding gravity magic.

“Should I say you’re brazen or what, human? At a time like this, you still—”

“What time? What happened?”

“.”

Kali Site took a deep breath.

After calming down, she said:

“Take out the gravity stone—I’ll teach you to mimic it.”

“Uh—I accidentally crushed it.”

“. Human, do you know how expensive a gravity stone is?”

“Sorry—I’ll compensate you.”

Fortunately, the elf wasn’t overly concerned with money.

She sighed and began indulging her habit of being a teacher.

Her slender arms crossed over her chest; the form-fitting green-and-white bodysuit perfectly outlined her figure.

Her proportionate yet substantial chest sagged slightly under gravity, the bodysuit revealing every detail except the very top.

Her golden hair was tied into a long braid at the back, swaying in midair.

After a brief pause:

“I have no spare gravity stones, but I can generate a gravity field for you to mimic and sense. Come here.”

Kali Site extended her arm, palm open.

She placed Luo De’s hand on the back of hers.

As he drew closer to her body,

Luo De caught the girl’s scent—and a faint trace of blood.

On her snow-white nape, a thin bloodstain was barely visible.

Purple essence began to flicker.

The familiar sensation of gravity came through his hand.

“Don’t distract yourself—feel the details of my spellcasting.”

“Though essence and magic differ slightly, their pathways in gravity magic are identical—just like the cumbersome casting steps of the old era, only differing in efficiency.”

“Gravity fields don’t require great talent; the key is mimicry. Many are born with perception issues and can never use them for life. Don’t move! Let your essence trace my magic—I’ll guide you personally!”

“Not there! Fool!”

“Again! Remember—follow my magic!”

As the lesson deepened,

Luo De stood directly behind Kali Site , his right hand pressed against the back of her right hand.

The two gradually pressed together.

After roughly half an hour of mimicry, Luo De successfully replicated the gravity field.

A small patch of space before him warped under the pressure of the gravity field.

“I see.”

“As long as you mimic, gravity fields aren’t hard—you’re learning too slowly! Again. Wait—your sword hilt is poking me!”

“Uh—”

Luo De stepped back half a pace.

It’s not my fault.

The elf’s rear was very round; in her focused teaching, she had been unintentionally brushing against Luo De.

Sensing Luo De’s movement, Kali Site froze instantly.

At this moment, how could she not know?

She swung her elbow backward.

“Are you trying to die?”

Luo De was about to speak.

A sound came from afar.

Someone was there.

He turned his head and caught sight of the witch Dimeya, whose concealment spell was just failing.

Huh? Did this spell bypass my perception?

Needless to say, there is a significant gap between spiritual warriors and mages in the realm of perception.

“Dimeya.”

“Good afternoon, both of you.”

She still wore a dark high-slit gown; her delicate, snow-white skin flushed pink; the strapless dress revealed most of the northern hemisphere of her large bust, and the wide brim of her hat kept all sunlight from touching her.

The ends of her golden hair were playfully dyed pink, tied into a thick braid that fell over her slender waist and rounded hips.

She bowed respectfully to the two of them.

Unfortunately, the wide brim of her hat also obscured her cleavage.

“How long have you been here?”

“Not long—since the two of you held hands.”

“That was already half an hour ago! Besides, we were practicing magic.”

Kali Sitebianjiedao 。

“Of course, of course,” Dimeya laughed.

“.”

She turned to Luo De, her smiling face turning serious.

“Thank you for saving me, Mr. Luo De. The moment I recovered from my injuries, I came to the forest to find you, but I heard you had gone out.”

Luo De waved his hand, indicating it was nothing.

“Though you are my savior, I still feel I must remind you—being unfaithful is not good.”

“Daphne thinks of you nearly every day. Now you’ve taken in a succubus, and if you go chasing after an elf girl as well...”

Kali Sitebanzhelianshuo :

“I’ll say it again! We’re practicing magic!”
