"Dong~"
"Get up, Brother Yulian~"
"Dong dong~"
The sun had just risen, and Nico's voice came from outside the door.
Yulian climbed out of bed with a face full of worry.
Since he stopped wanting to chase Frieren away, Yulian's biological clock returned to its usual routine of sleeping in if there was nothing important.
Waking up early was his lifelong enemy.
"What's wrong?"
Yulian forced open his sleepy eyes and opened the door.
"Eh!"
"You are..."
Puella Magi Madoka Magica!
Yulian's sleepiness vanished, his wide eyes filled with shock.
"Doesn't it look good? Sister Frieren did it for me."
Her long shoulder-length pink hair was tied into twin tails with two red ribbons, her wine-red eyes were slightly narrowed, and her small cherry mouth was slightly curved at this moment, revealing a charming smile.
It looked good, but it was a bit hard to bear.
"I suggest changing the twin tails to a single ponytail, and for the clothes, how about changing to a more standard Mage's robe?"
Yulian blinked his innocent large eyes and offered the suggestion.
"Is that so..."
"Now that you mention it, I do feel a bit unaccustomed."
Nico nodded and left.
Although Yulian was looking forward to it, he didn't have the habit of going into a girl's room.
So, snoring sounds gradually began to rise~
"Brother Yulian, get up! How did you fall asleep again?"
Nico's face darkened as she looked at the closed door.
"Coming, coming!"
Yulian was startled awake from his dream and rushed to the door again.
At this moment, Nico's pink hair was tied into a stylish high ponytail, and her slightly longer bangs were also carefully trimmed, revealing a smooth forehead.
Paired with a clean white shirt and a deep blue Mage's cape robe, she shed some of her childishness, and at this moment, Nico truly looked like a Mage.
"Does it look good?"
Seeing Yulian's stunned look, Nico asked.
"It looks great, great!"
Yulian nodded vigorously. He had to admit that Nico looked really stylish at this moment.
With the high ponytail and Mage's cape, the originally young girl instantly felt like an older sister.
And compared to her sweet girl image from earlier, it was clear that Nico preferred and was more used to being like this.
This girl is no ordinary being; with a change of clothes, she becomes divine.
Yulian couldn't help but sigh, the little girl had really grown up.
"Right, why are you dressed so nicely today?"
Yulian habitually rubbed Nico's small head and asked.
"Didn't we agree you would teach me Magic today?"
"How could Brother Yulian forget!"
Nico puffed out her cheeks, looking a bit angry, which was quite cute.
But Yulian didn't think it was cute; the consequences of this little girl getting angry were severe!
"Didn't forget, didn't forget."
Yulian waved his hands repeatedly. Heaven knows how angry the little girl would be if he dared to say he forgot.
"Where is Frieren?"
Yulian grinned and changed the subject.
"Sister Frieren is in her room. We'll leave when you're ready."
Nico bit her finger, suddenly looking like a natural airhead.
Yulian felt a bit strange, but since he had changed the subject, he shouldn't keep pushing his luck.
"Let's go, call her."
Yulian took Nico's small hand and walked towards Frieren's room.
Just as they reached the door, even breathing sounds came from inside the room.
"So she... is also sleeping...?"
"Yes..."
It took quite a while again before Frieren fully woke up and set off with the two of them.
The place Frieren chose for Nico to awaken her Magic power was a small grove outside Southshore City.
It was located in the back hills and was usually very quiet.
Because the carriage was parked in the market, the three of them went on foot.
By the time they reached the back hills, it was already noon, with the sun blazing fiercely.
"This is a good opportunity to see which type of Magic you are more affinity with."
In a clearing in the grove, Frieren handed Nico the sandalwood staff in her hand and simultaneously began teaching basic elemental Magic.
The staff was bought by Frieren from a Magic shop; it only cost a hundred gold coins, which was negligible.
As for the basic elemental Magic, they were simple "Wind Cutter," "Fireball," "Wood Shield," "Water Flow," and "Stone Ball."
These five elements not only represented Magic but were also the simplest elemental Magic.
Except for Flying Sword, which Frieren couldn't cast, Frieren demonstrated the other four one by one.
Yulian watched from the side with great interest.
A fireball the size of a soccer ball, a water column as thick as an arm, a huge wood shield condensed in front of her, and rocks that smashed craters tens of meters wide into the ground.
"Did you remember?"
Frieren moved the rocks away, pointed at the rock pit, and said to Nico.
"If you remembered, cast them once in order."
"As for the incantation for Gold Magic, it's #%*&..."
"#%*&..."
Before the little girl could cast first, Yulian himself, after slightly modifying the Magic, condensed a palm-sized metal small sword in his hand and began playing with it.
"I remembered."
Nico nodded vigorously.
Nico listened very carefully to the Magic language Frieren spoke just now, and after witnessing Frieren casting Magic, Nico was already impatient.
Although it sounded strange, the fact was that the language she had never heard before was automatically translated in Nico's ears into words she could understand, and she remembered it firmly.
"Element, Spirit of Gold."
"Heed my call and gather."
"Follow the flow of my Magic power and condense."
"Magic - Sword of Gold!"
"Clang!"
After Nico finished reciting the Magic incantation, a giant crimson gold sword appeared out of thin air above the rock pit and slashed down!
After a deafening sound, the rock pit was split in half.
The giant sword disappeared, and the pit that had been neatly split in half was then met with a scorching fireball like a small sun.
"Element, Spirit of Fire."
"Heed my call and gather."
"Follow the flow of my Magic power and gather!"
"Magic - Fireball!"
"Rumble!"
A terrifying fireball descended from the sky and smashed directly into the rock pit, and the towering pillar of fire seemed to shoot straight into the clouds.
Bringing a terrifying scene of world destruction!
But the next second, a thick column of water like a waterfall descended from the sky again!
"Sizzle—"
A large amount of steam rose violently as the water and fire collided.
"Wind."
Frieren's lips moved slightly, and a gentle breeze naturally generated, dispersing the bewildering mist.
"Sister Frieren, continue."
Frieren interrupted Nico's hesitation, her expression composed.
"Okay!"
Nico took a deep breath, and then a wall woven from branches, followed by a giant meteorite synthesized from earth and rock, once again filled the large pit Frieren had previously created.
"Is that okay,"
"Sister Frieren."
Nico was breathing heavily, her steps a bit unsteady.
Seeing this, Frieren nodded with satisfaction.
"An astonishing amount of mana and mana control."
"That's enough, Nico."
Looking at everything before her that seemed to have gone through the end of the world, after replying to Nico, Frieren finally had time to diss Yulian.
"You did that on purpose, didn't you?"
Her long white hair floated in the wind, Frieren looked at Yulian with an unfriendly expression, and a dangerous aura was already building up on the staff in her hand.
"Cough cough, for dramatic effect."
"Boom!"
A beam carrying a destructive aura smashed behind Yulian, directly piercing through a large tree as thick as an adult.
"Don't do it again."
