Upgraded Black Lightning
Flamme leaned gently close to the cake, gazing at the small burning candle on top of it, her wishes popping out one after another in her heart.
Will wishes really come true?
Flamme murmured softly, gazing at the candle flickering with a dim light as her wishes surfaced one by one. She longed for the death of the Demons, she longed for humanity to gain peace, she longed to become a great mages like Serie, and she longed to meet another half who would work together with her to fight against the Demons.
Which young maiden's heart does not turn to love, yet the burden on her shoulders was too heavy and her standards for the other half were exceptionally high. Rather than finding a man just to make do, she would rather dedicate her whole life to magic.
Thinking of the other half, Flamme could not help but recall the afternoon's time when her well-behaved godson drove his newly invented Pink Miracle, taking her to circle around the backyard that had already become a sea of flowers to enjoy the twilight sunset.
Thinking of her godson's bright and cheerful smile from childhood to the present, his handsome face, and his capable body, Flamme could not help looking at Li Yan, who was eagerly waiting for her to blow out the candle.
It seemed that the other half she had always wanted had always been by her side. It seemed that all her desires for the other half were entirely a miniature version of her godson: gentle, capable, obedient, well-behaved, reliable, confident, and sunny. Although he still had some minor deficiencies in terms of strength, that creative mind was something no mage in the current era possessed.
As the first mage in human history to master Space Magic, her godson had already walked at the very forefront of this era. In the future, he might not be able to defeat the Demon King, but he still possessed potential that no one could underestimate.
Her thoughts drifted further and further away. Flamme snapped back from the candlelight and, under everyone's gaze, gently blew out the dim candle.
As the candle on the cake was blown out, Li Yan gave a gentle snap of his fingers. The next second, all the candle flames went out completely, and the lights inside the house instantly turned on.
"The candle is blown out, you can start eating the cake now, everyone."
Li Yan neatly cut the cake into small pieces and placed them into plates so that they took up just the right amount of space.
"I want that strawberry and grape one."
Frieren pointed at the part of the cake with strawberries and grapes, her eyes full of yearning. For this delicacy she had never eaten before, for some reason, she liked it from the bottom of her heart.
Perhaps it was also related to the visual appeal of this delicacy.
Handing the strawberry and grape portion into Frieren's hands, Li Yan looked toward his godmother Flamme. Flamme pointed to the location of the cherry; obviously, she favored the cherry carrying elegance and beauty.
The two women took the cake and tasted it with full joy. Li Yan cast his final gaze toward Little Fool, and seeing her hesitating without knowing which piece to choose, Li Yan smiled lightly and handed the portion containing chocolate to Little Fool.
Gazing at the chocolate cake portion Li Yan handed over, Little Fool took it excitedly. Actually, she could have any part, as long as it was given by the young master.
Gently sticking out her small tongue to lick the cream on the cake, Little Fool widened her eyes slightly. This taste was sweet and soft, just like eating the clouds in the sky.
"Delicious!"
Little Fool tasted it with deep satisfaction. Sitting on the stool, she could no longer control the joy in her heart, and her short legs swung back and forth happily.
At night, Li Yan and the women sat on the roof, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the night sky. Frieren lay on Flamme's thighs with a salted-fish expression, looking up at the beautiful starry sky. Perhaps due to the angle at which she was lying, she pushed away the somewhat obstructive figure with disdain.
Feeling Frieren's light push, Flamme smiled and patted her head lightly.
"I can only see half the night sky now."
Frieren puffed up her cheeks as she spoke, while Flamme pinched Frieren's small cheeks with dissatisfaction. "Then don't lie on my thighs. A Yan doesn't give you this much trouble."
Li Yan turned his head to look, and seeing Frieren with her puffed-up cheeks being kneaded by Flamme, he could not help letting out a light laugh. The half of the night sky Frieren was looking at had clearly encountered the obstruction of a plump figure.
Frieren wanted to resist, but she was intimidated by Flamme's merciless gaze, so she had to bite the bullet and look at half of the night sky. Gazing at the weak, helpless, and pitiful Frieren, Li Yan moved closer at a very opportune moment and also rested his head on Flamme's thighs.
Sharing one of Flamme's legs each equally with Frieren, Li Yan looked blankly at the sky with the familiar lap pillow. Sure enough, as Frieren said, only half of the beautiful night sky could be seen.
Flamme gently stroked Li Yan's head, tidying up his somewhat messy hair, which caused Frieren, resting on the other side, to widen her eyes and cry out that the master was biased.
Three months' time passed. Under the gaze of the women, Li Yan rolled out the upgraded version of the Black Lightning he had recently developed, except that it no longer required human pedaling, but only the infusion of Mana. This Black Lightning required a huge Mana foundation, and it also needed to be provided continuously. To drive it, a Mana foundation of level forty and above was merely an appetizer.
Frieren climbed onto the Black Lightning motorcycle impatiently, wearing a confident expression. After some simple, basic instructions from Li Yan, she already understood quite a bit about the basic ways to drive the Black Lightning motorcycle.
As the power was directly maxed out by Frieren, the Black Lightning was like a demonic wild leopard darting through the forest, its speed extremely fierce. Frieren, driving the Black Lightning motorcycle, opened her mouth slightly, controlling the direction in a flustered manner, and her beautiful white hair blew about wildly in the wind because of it.
"It's t-too... fast, senior brother, I can't take it anymore~"
Frieren's eyes were moist, and her two short legs trembled in panic. The speed of the Black Lightning motorcycle far exceeded her imagination, and she had already forgotten how to stop and how to slow down.
"A Yan!"
Flamme took out her staff with a serious expression; if Frieren could not stop, then she would use magic to stop her.
"Leave it to me, godmother!"
Li Yan rubbed his forehead. Regarding Frieren's reckless behavior, he also had nothing to say. He had originally thought Frieren would drive at twenty or thirty yards leisurely, but he had not expected her to surge straight to one hundred forty or fifty yards. Such fast speed was simply three times that of a warrior.
Space Magic quickly jumped, acting like a cooldown-free version of Flying Thunder God. Li Yan quickly approached the speeding Black Lightning motorcycle and, relying on his Spatial Movement ability, successfully boarded Frieren's backseat.
"Give me the handlebars, just let go."
Li Yan's tender words rang in Frieren's ear. Frieren subconsciously released her grip on the fierce accelerator. A large tree was about to collide head-on in front, and the corners of Li Yan's lips curved up slightly. Space Magic activated instantly, and the Black Lightning motorcycle vanished from the spot. The next second, the Black Lightning motorcycle appeared from a hundred meters high in the sky, and along with several consecutive instantaneous movements, it finally returned safely to the starting point.
"Phew... I survived... wails..."
Frieren got off the Black Lightning motorcycle with lingering fear. Her legs trembled endlessly because she recalled the extreme speed just now. She was as if caught in a storm, dodging several obstacles in succession, and her heart was still beating violently even now. That kind of life-and-death crisis was the first time she had ever felt that magic could not save her.
"Idiot! Don't go driving all rashly next time." Flamme scolded her head-on. Frieren could only lower her head pitifully to take the scolding. When she thought she would receive Flamme's daily head pat, a warm embrace hugged her.
"Don't be like this next time, I'll worry."
Flamme's eyes were moist. In that kind of situation just now, she had also been somewhat at a loss. The speed of the Black Lightning motorcycle was too fast, and she had completely not expected Frieren to instantly leave her field of vision, to the extent that her magic could not force the Black Lightning motorcycle to a stop in the first instance.
