Thereafter, Yaltina regained her consciousness and didn't seem any different from before, which made everyone heave a sigh of relief. As for Fangzheng, he found Yaltina and asked her about what had happened. Facing Fangzheng, Yaltina naturally told him everything honestly.
After learning what happened, Fangzheng immediately went to Xiao Hei and Illya and asked them for Ying Lili's notebook. Then, when Fangzheng realized that something was wrong, he promptly taught them a lesson.
"I didn't think that Ying Lili would have such an ability …"
Fangzheng couldn't help being in awe as he looked at the notebook in his hand. Did she just draw a divine scripture of evil?
Was that even possible? What the hell was going on? Why couldn't he understand anything at all?
"Ying Lili didn't show her notebook to anyone else, did she?"
"Not at all, definitely not."
Illya and Xiao Hei were both shocked when they learned about the severity of the matter from Fangzheng. They didn't think that the thing that Ying Lili drew to kill time would be as valuable as an evil god's token.
"Sister Ying Lili's manuscripts are kept in a safe, and she's printing them herself. I only got the first draft because I begged her, so there shouldn't be a problem!"
Although Xiao Hei was so confident, Fangzheng hesitated again and again before deciding to take the risk and contact Ying Lili to clarify things so that she wouldn't happily show her notebook to anyone else. It was one thing for the normal world to be the Dominion of Lust, but the game world was the God of Games' divine realm. It must not become the Dominion of Lust.
As expected, Ying Lili was shocked when she heard Fangzheng's request.
"Eh? My notebook actually has that kind of ability? Are you sure that girl isn't as coquettish as Asuna? "
"How can everyone be the same as Asuna … I did feel the effect of magic, so you should be careful," Roland said.
"Eh —? So I can't draw anything? "
"It's not that you can't draw them, but you have to keep the original and first drafts. Don't let others see them. You can sell the rest. It's fine."
"If that's the case …"
"Hmm? What happened? "
"Mr Fangzheng, does that mean that in future battles, as long as I display my artwork in front of my enemies, they'll surrender?"
"… … You're really hopeless for your brain."
Although this wasn't wrong from a certain point of view, after reading Ying Lili's book, one's attention would be drawn to the God of Lust's Divine Realm, which was why Fangzheng was the unlucky one. It was fine if it was a cute girl like Yaltina, but if it was a burly man, then Fangzheng would destroy him.
By the way, after this incident, Fangzheng was once again convinced that drawing books was Ying Lili's vocation.
Speaking of which, why was he risking his life to send a telegram in enemy-occupied territory just to discuss whether or not to draw a book?
Fangzheng was speechless.
After that, Yaltina returned to her usual self on the surface. She explained what happened that day to the girls as a mental disorder caused by her physical discomfort. Although some girls teased Yaltina about it, it was obviously nothing to Yaltina.
Soon, this little interlude was over, and it was time for the end-of-term exam.
The fight for first place in the martial arts exam was very intense. Basically, no one gave way to the other, but in the end, Liz from the Seven Luminaries Church defeated Laura and took first place.
As expected of a Subordinate Knight of the Star Cup Knights, Liz was better than Laura in terms of combat experience and height.
But when he looked at Liz who was standing quietly in front of him, the first thing that came to Fangzheng's mind was … If he went out this time, he would have to prepare sufficient food supplies.
Otherwise, a certain someone would probably starve to death.
In contrast, the first place in the liberal arts and science exams was more troublesome. The reason was simple: after this exam, both Miao Jie and Elfen got full marks.
But there could only be one first place.
Therefore, Fangzheng came up with a way to decide the winner – rock, paper, scissors!
Best of three, winner takes all!
Although Fangzheng thought it was a good idea, reality slapped him hard in the face.
The reason was simple.
"… I should've just drawn straws."
Fangzheng sighed helplessly as he looked at Princess Elfen and Miao Jie, who were standing on the podium with serious expressions. Elyse, who was beside him, also nodded.
"They've tied 45 times in a row."
That's right, rock, paper, scissors was the best of three. Elfen and Miao Jie had one win and one loss in the previous two rounds. Originally, they only needed to win one more round, but Elfen and Miao Jie seemed to be serious after that, so they tied 45 times in a row …
"I think I can apply for a Guinness World Record for this."
Fangzheng was rendered completely speechless when he saw that both sides were once again tied. He could tell that the duo had given it their all in order to obtain victory. Not only did they have to observe their opponent's reactions keenly and carefully, but they also had to make sure that their reactions were fast enough so that they would not foul later. Coupled with the mental pressure and exhaustion brought about by a long tie, it all depended on who could last until the end ….
A mere rock, paper, scissors was about to turn into a showdown at the summit of the forbidden city! This was not two girls playing rock, paper, scissors at all, but two peerless experts making use of all kinds of environments to fight each other!
Were they going to take first place in the Sword Duel at Mount Hua?
"Scissors … rock … paper!!"
Under everyone's gaze, the two girls shouted in unison again and swung their right hands with all their might, but … it was still a tie.
"It's the fiftieth time."
Ling was also dumbfounded at this scene, not knowing what to say.
"The probability of a tie 50 times in a row is probably one in ten thousand."
Tio shook his head and could not help but sigh. Everyone else nodded. Like Fangzheng, they did not expect a mere rock, paper, scissors to be able to reach such a stalemate. As a result, everyone's eyes were wide open as they quietly watched the battle between the two of them. They wanted to see who would be the final victor between them.
However, Elfin and Miao Jie ignored the sighs of the people around them. Both of them looked at each other with a smile on their faces. Then, Elfin spoke.
"Miss Miao Jie, aren't you tired?"
"I'm fine, but Your Highness, you're almost at your limit."
"…."
Hearing the two laughing and chatting, the others immediately shut their mouths.
Okay, now they're even using psychological warfare.
"Isn't that world very backward? Your Highness, can you really bear going there? "
"As a daughter of the royal family, of course I'll be prepared to face all kinds of tests. Otherwise, why would I work so hard?"
"But Your Highness, you're a princess after all. Don't you think it's a little too reckless to explore an unknown world? Why don't I set up the first stop, and then you can go there? "
Elfen twitched her brows slightly, but shortly after, she revealed an elegant smile once again.
"This is also a rare opportunity for me, and I won't let it go, Miss Miao Jie."
"It's the same for me, Your Highness."
Miao Jie revealed an elegant smile again.
"I also have my own purpose, and Your Royal Highness, are you really prepared?"
"Oh, what preparation are you talking about?"
"Of course …"
As she spoke, Miao Jie raised her hand and waved it down. At the same time, she mouthed something quickly. Elfin couldn't help but stare blankly at Miao Jie's mouth movements. Although it was only for an instant, it was enough to determine the outcome of the battle between the two of them.
"It ends here. The winner is Miao Jie Yigaret."
Fangzheng announced the winner loudly and let out a long sigh of relief. At the same time, he decided that in the future, he would just draw straws and use luck to determine the winner. He had neglected the fact that all the young ladies in this school possessed unique skills. If they were to clash head-on, it wouldn't be settled in just one or two rounds. If it weren't for Elfin's absent-mindedness at the last moment, perhaps the two of them wouldn't be able to decide the winner until dinner.
"For the next two weeks of vacation, whether you want to go home or stay in school, report to Towa. Miao Jie and Riz can prepare the luggage for your long journey. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask Ciri. Alright, dismissed! "
As Fangzheng waved his hand and announced the end of the first semester of Semuria School, the young ladies heaved a sigh of relief and left the classroom.
Only Elfen and Miao Jie were still standing there motionlessly. Only when everyone had left did they look at each other and smile.
"Princess Elfin, it seems that you haven't had enough mental training."
"I want to ask you, Mitty … Miao Jie, how much of what you said just now was for real?"
Compared to Miao Jie, who still had an elegant smile on her face, Elfin now looked a little serious.
"Of course I'm serious. Your Highness should understand my situation very well. In this situation, if we want to do something, we must make sacrifices. We're the children of nobles, so it's inevitable. And that's why we're here, isn't it? "
"…"
"Then, I'll take my leave now, Your Highness. I have to go back and prepare my luggage. Good night."
As she spoke, Miao Jie lifted the hem of her dress, bowed to Elfin, and turned to leave. Elfen, on the other hand, looked at Miao Jie's back with a blank and helpless expression.
In the end, she sighed.
"It seems that I'm still not enlightened enough."
