When Ryuga was purchasing magic, Erica was the first to notice this in the chat group.
[Erica: "Great!"]
[Erica: "God Ryuga bought my magic again!"]
She immediately started showing off in the group.
Seeing this, Madoka didn't react at first, thinking Erica was happy about successfully selling something and earning points.
Kanae and Tohsaka Rin quickly caught on.
[Tohsaka Rin: "Envious.JPG"]
[Tohsaka Rin: "Before long, Ryuga-sama will probably create an upgraded version of the magic again!"]
[Tohsaka Rin: "Damn it, why is your luck so good, you vixen!"]
Seeing this, Madoka finally understood what Erica was happy about.
Two hundred points was nothing—Ryuga's personally optimized skills were the real treasure!
[Erica: "I wonder how much Ryuga-sama will comprehend this time."]
[Erica: "No matter what, it'll definitely be a hundred times stronger than the original version I use."]
Having already tasted the benefits, she had extreme confidence in Ryuga.
[Madoka: "Congratulations, Erica-nee!"]
After understanding, gentle Madoka felt no jealousy and even helped console Tohsaka Rin.
[Madoka: "Rin-nee, don't be anxious. If big brother is willing to sell his insights, we can buy them too!"]
For something where everyone could benefit, she felt it should be encouraged.
[Tohsaka Rin: "I know, but..."]
[Tohsaka Rin: "Humbly hoping Ryuga-sama will notice me."]
Rin naturally understood Madoka's meaning, but her magic system was completely different from Erica's, and she had no plans to switch to Erica's magic system.
If Ryuga really created an enhanced version of magic, she could naturally purchase and use it, but the effect definitely wouldn't be as good as Erica's.
So she hoped Ryuga could modify her merchandise instead.
Though unlikely, what if Ryuga directly improved the Five Great Magics!
Then she, Tohsaka Rin, would bring glory to her ancestors, become a proper Magician, fulfill the lifelong wish of all magicians including her father, and truly touch the Root!
If so, she should be able to stop her father's decision and keep her sister at home, right?
The one who could most empathize with Tohsaka Rin's thoughts was probably Kanae.
She also had a sister, also had things she wanted to accomplish, and also had a need to become stronger.
So seeing Rin send such a message, she couldn't help but repeat:
[Kanae: "Humbly hoping Ryuga-sama will notice me."]
Seeing this, the others immediately followed.
[Madoka: "Humbly hoping Ryuga-sama will notice me."]
[Erica: "Humbly hoping Ryuga-sama will notice me."]
Suddenly, the chat group took on an atmosphere like a harem waiting for the emperor's selection.
Ryuga, who had caused this situation, paid no attention to what was happening here.
Water-chatting would only slow down his rate of becoming stronger.
In the chat group, after the copying, Erica and the others chatted while waiting for Ryuga's insight to end.
It wasn't that they had nothing to do, but nothing was more important than witnessing a miracle for the second time.
Just then, Tohsaka Rin, who had clicked on Ryuga's profile while bored, suddenly noticed a subtle change.
The twin-tailed young girl rubbed her eyes, somewhat doubting whether she was seeing things.
After confirming multiple times, she swallowed and informed her group friends of this shocking fact.
[Tohsaka Rin: "Everyone be quiet, I have something to say."]
[Erica: "What is it, did you wet the bed yesterday?"]
[Tohsaka Rin: "What I want to say is—bah! You're the one who wet the bed. I stopped wetting the bed at three years old, you vixen shut up!"]
[Tohsaka Rin: "What I want to say is, has everyone looked at Ryuga-sama's profile?"]
[Kanae: "Of course."]
[Erica: "Yeah, didn't we confirm together before that Ryuga-sama was originally an ordinary person from an ordinary world."]
[Erica: "Wait, you suddenly saying this... could it be?"]
[Tohsaka Rin: "Look for yourselves!"]
Soon, in less than a second, everyone checked Ryuga's current information.
The chat group was instantly flooded again.
[Kanae: "!"]
[Madoka: "!"]
[Erica: "!"]
[Erica: "As expected, Ryuga-sama has advanced to Rank 1!"]
Among everyone present, Erica reacted fastest and was the least surprised.
With Ryuga's demonstrated comprehension, his advancement wasn't surprising at all.
Perhaps others who hadn't advanced might have some strange filter, but for Erica, she knew her own strength all too well.
Someone like Ryuga who could master divine power through enlightenment would definitely not be weaker than her.
In fact, for such a big shot, advancement was probably just the initial starting point.
[Kanae: "I'm not surprised Ryuga-sama could advance."]
[Kanae: "It's just, isn't this speed a bit too fast?"]
[Madoka: "Right! Big brother was still an ordinary person just minutes ago, wasn't he?"]
When they said this, everyone in the group was stunned.
Yes! Going from an ordinary person who just contacted magic to a one-man-army strongman in just minutes—wasn't this growth speed too terrifying?
Realizing this, Erica sighed softly.
[Erica: "Ryuga-sama achieved in minutes what took me ten years of studying magic."]
Seeing this, Tohsaka Rin's expression grew distant.
[Tohsaka Rin: "I've been studying magic for two years and I'm still unranked."]
[Kanae: "I've been studying swordsmanship for seven years and I'm still unranked."]
[Madoka: "I, I, I haven't studied magic for long and don't have much achievement, but everyone shouldn't be discouraged! Geniuses like big brother are rare."]
Kind-hearted Madoka tried to comfort everyone.
[Kanae: "Don't worry, Madoka. We certainly won't compare ourselves to Ryuga-sama, we're just sighing a bit."]
[Tohsaka Rin: "Yeah! If we compared ourselves to such a big shot, even Magicians would die of frustration."]
[Erica: "Haha! Madoka is so innocent and cute!"]
[Madoka: "I'm not, I'm not that cute... I didn't even brush my hair today!"]
Across the screen, Erica could almost see Madoka's flustered embarrassment.
With her personality, she originally wanted to continue teasing this pure girl.
But just then, her suddenly ringing phone interrupted her.
This was an emergency call from her uncle Saint Paolo, apparently with urgent orders from their magic association—Copper Black Cross.
A dozen seconds later:
[Erica: "Ah, I was planning to rest and wait for Ryuga-sama to finish his insights, but suddenly something urgent came up."]
[Erica: "I'll leave for a bit, see everyone later."]
[Erica: "After this battle, I'll come back to buy Ryuga-sama's insights!"]
[Erica: "If I can afford them..."]
To be continued...
