Unlike the famous Journey to the West, the Roc Demon King before Aslan was a young girl in her prime.
But come to think of it, even Sun Wukong had become a sister monkey, so it wasn't too hard to accept Roc Demon King becoming a young girl.
Hearing this, Karyou raised her eyes and stared at Aslan, her tone slightly displeased.
"You want to become my disciple, right?"
Aslan looked at Karyou strangely. He might have known why she had come.
So the teacher who would surely satisfy him, introduced by Shiroyasha, was Karyou.
Looking at the noble yet subtly alluring girl before him, still slightly childish in appearance, Aslan nodded in satisfaction.
In terms of appearance, he was definitely satisfied.
As for her abilities, she was the Great Sage who Leaves Heaven in Disarray—one of the Seven Great Sages—and also the main attacker among them. Her skills were certainly not poor.
One could only say that Shiroyasha was indeed a boss—she truly understood Aslan.
"Yes."
Aslan nodded. He was very pleased with Karyou as his teacher.
"But becoming my disciple isn't that easy."
Seeing this, Karyou scoffed.
"At the very least, you must pass my test."
Hearing this, Aslan was momentarily startled and said with a strange expression.
"What's the test about?"
Last night, he had spent the evening in No Name's library reading the notes on Boundary ability development left behind by Baron La Croix.
He was looking for a subject to test it on.
Karyou calmly raised her right finger and pointed to a distant mountain.
"The test is to use your fastest speed to pick the peach at the peak of that mountain."
Aslan fell silent for a moment, his expression growing even stranger, and he asked in confusion.
"Are you sure?"
Aslan slightly suspected that Karyou had no idea his ability was space manipulation—namely, the Boundary ability.
Though it looked far, it would only take a few seconds to open a spatial rift.
Karyou nodded and said confidently.
"Of course. A word from the Great Sage who Leaves Heaven in Disarray—even my older sister can't catch up."
Seeing this, the corner of Aslan's mouth couldn't help but lift, and he smiled.
"Alright."
Then, right in front of Karyou, Aslan tore open space, reached his hand in, picked the largest and juiciest peach, and handed it to her.
"Hmm~~~~ Eh!"
"No way, why are you the owner of the Boundary Divinity?"
Karyou stared at him in shock, embarrassment quickly flooding her face.
Had she just made a Boundary ability user take such a test?
This would definitely make her look extremely irresponsible, not even knowing her own disciple's abilities.
(Ah, ah, ah, why didn't my older sister warn me?)
(What should I say now? This is so embarrassing.)
Especially with Leticia and Kurousagi present as witnesses.
Telling a space-crossing Boundary ability user to go pick fruit made her look utterly foolish.
"Aren't you Shiroyasha's god's follower?"
"Yes, why? Is there a problem?"
Aslan tilted his head, looking at Karyou in confusion. He didn't understand what she meant.
Karyou fell silent for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Could she say she only heard Aslan was a follower of Shiroyasha—that annoying, lewd demon—and didn't care about the rest?
Aslan's Divinity was also too deceptive, wasn't it?
Wasn't it a Divinity containing fragments of heat and light Divinities?
After all, Shiroyasha was a Sun Star Spirit, so it was natural her bestowed Divinity carried a bit of solar light and heat, right?
But who would have thought Aslan was a Boundary ability user?
Yet, the number of Boundary ability users in Little Garden was too small. Shiroyasha couldn't even find a suitable person to teach Aslan.
No one knew if Baron La Croix was alive or dead—exiled to the outer world or already gone.
So Shiroyasha had to strengthen Aslan from other aspects.
Leticia would teach Aslan martial arts, and Karyou would teach him magic and develop his heat system abilities.
Best of all, if he could learn the Golden Wing Flame.
In the lower levels, few Gifts had greater destructive and offensive power than the Golden Wing Flame.
It was the highest-level Divine Fire capable of burning gods, dragons, souls, and even existence itself.
"No problem."
Karyou paused for a moment, then awkwardly turned her head, trying not to show her flushed face.
But by turning her head, wasn't it even more obvious?
At least Aslan, Leticia, and Kurousagi clearly saw Karyou's red earlobes.
"So now, am I worthy to be your disciple, Master Karyou?"
After hearing Aslan call her master, Karyou looked very pleased.
She even seemed slightly excited, but then remembered she had just made a Boundary ability user race for speed.
She felt embarrassed.
Seeing Karyou's reaction, Aslan understood.
Karyou truly had a childish personality. She could feel so embarrassed over something so small.
"T-That's fine."
Karyou said with a tense face.
"Then, Master Karyou, what will you teach me?"
(It seems this is a good opportunity. Should I persuade her to teach me Golden Wing Flame while she's still embarrassed?)
Leticia clearly realized this. She gently moved her shadow to touch Aslan, reminding him.
Later, remember to praise Karyou more.
Children like to be praised.
"Of course, I'll enhance the fire Divinity into Shining Heat..."
Then Karyou fell silent again.
"Wait? What Divinity fragments are contained in your Divinity? Oh, the Shining Heat Divinity."
"The method to absorb Shining Heat Divinity fragments and perfect them into a complete Divinity."
The next second, Aslan—who had already burned part of his achievements to complete the Shining Heat Divinity—raised his right hand.
After transforming his right hand into golden flame, he said to Karyou,
"Like this, Master Karyou?"
For a moment, Karyou didn't know what to teach Aslan.
But Aslan had already called her master. If she didn't teach him something real, wouldn't she look irresponsible?
Seeing Aslan standing there respectfully, Karyou gritted her teeth and said seriously.
"Then, how about I teach you how to perfect the Shining Heat Divinity into Golden Wing Flame?"
"Please, Master Karyou, teach me."
Hearing Karyou's words, Aslan bowed respectfully. It was the disciple acceptance ceremony.
But Karyou now felt slightly regretful.
How did this happen? How did this happen? Now it was truly difficult.
Originally, she only planned to teach Aslan some ordinary spells and supernatural powers, and develop his Divinity.
But now, why had it turned into Golden Wing Flame—the inherited Gift of the Golden-Winged Great Roc clan?
How could an inherited Gift be so easily taught to an outsider?
