Twice the Disappointment
"I see."
Li Yan nodded dejectedly. Frieren looked at the fragrant food in Li Yan's room and couldn't help but swallow, her big eyes staring straight into the room.
Looking at Frieren's fervent gaze, Li Yan sighed softly, a wry smile on his face. "Let's go, let's eat something together. If you want anything to eat in the future, just come find your senior brother."
"Yay!"
Frieren happily agreed. For her, the food around her senior brother was never bad, especially his cooking skills, which were always delicious.
At dinner time, Li Yan couldn't help but smile as she watched Frieren eat like a child. Seeing her enjoying her meal made Li Yan feel a little better.
Frieren held a chicken leg in her left hand and a chicken wing in her right, eating with great relish. The oily and spicy flavor was irresistible to her, and she didn't care that her mouth was covered in oil.
Li Yan gently picked up a handkerchief and wiped the grease from her lips. "Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you."
Frieren nodded slightly, but her movements remained exceptionally swift. When it came to food, her appetite was even greater than that of an adult warrior. Frieren devoured more than half of the twelve chicken wings and twelve chicken drumsticks all by herself.
After a satisfying meal, Frieren sprawled on the sofa in the room, took out her go-to Magic Tome, and began to read it, swinging her short, white legs in a cheerful mood.
"Frieren, remember to wear socks next time. The weather's gotten colder lately, and you're running around the room barefoot every day. Do you think I don't know you?"
Li Yan criticized him in a very serious manner.
Frieren puffed out her cheeks slightly, ignoring her senior brother's criticism. She wouldn't listen to a mere nobody like him; the happiest thing was walking barefoot on the floor.
"By the way, senior brother, are those two girls also your maids?"
Frieren suddenly turned to look at Xiao Wu and Xiao Xue.
"Xiao Wu and Xiao Xue? They are my personal maids who have taken care of me since I was a child. Most of the food you are eating today was made by them."
Li Yan looked at Xiao Wu and Xiao Xue, who were cleaning the table, with a warm smile on her face.
"I am Xiao Wu, hello Frieren." Xiao Wu, with her blue hair, bowed politely.
"I am Xiao Xue, Frieren. It will be nice to meet you in the future." Xiao Xue, with her pink hair, also bowed.
Seeing Xiao Wu and Xiao Xue bowing solemnly, the Little Fool imitated them and bowed as well, "I am the Little Fool, Frieren."
Frieren blinked her beautiful eyes, a hint of slyness in them, "Senior brother, I've heard Master's disciples say that maids can serve their masters."
"Bang!"
Li Yan gently patted Frieren's head, her face showing embarrassment at being caught out. "What are you thinking? Get back to studying magic."
Having been attacked for no reason, Frieren puffed out her cheeks and continued reading the Magic Tome, feeling wronged. She was completely unable to retaliate; her senior brother had mastered Space Magic, and she was no match for him.
"Hmph, you stinky senior brother, just wait. I've already found a way to counter your Space Magic. When that happens, I'll crush you under my feet."
Frieren muttered a complaint under her breath, her eyes secretly glancing at Li Yan's bottom. She wanted to kick Li Yan's ass as her Grandmaster had done.
On his seventh day at the Magic Continent Association, Li Yan looked out the window at the flowing crowd of people. They were ambitious young people who aspired to become magicians in the future. They came from all over the continent, and their clothes were all kinds of different.
In those seven days, his Godmother only visited him and Frieren once. She was very busy, researching large-scale barrier magic and teaching the royal disciples. All matters of the Magic Continent Association had to be handled by her.
The beginning is always the hardest. Her Godmother was at the busiest time of her career, with magicians from all over the continent deployed throughout the Kingdom. Li Yan finally understood why her Godmother had such a calm expression when she heard that the Demons were trying to assassinate her.
Even if the Demon King of the Demons Race arrived in the Royal Capital, he could not leave unscathed. At this moment, the Royal Capital is full of hidden talents, and magicians from all over the continent come here to seek him out. If the Demons were to enter the city, they would probably be so dead that their bodies would not even be found.
Although there is a Demons in the Royal Capital and even in the Magic Continent Association at this moment, this Demons is not the same as the other Demons; it is a maid Demons.
This Demons maid wouldn't listen to anyone else, but she would only obey her own orders.
"Little Fool, pour me a glass of juice."
Li Yan lay lazily on the sofa, somewhat idly resting his head on Xiao Xue's white silk stockings. He used his levitation magic to place the tomes of Space Magic above him, and he could now perform large-scale Spatial Movement, instantly arriving at any place within his sight.
"Yes, young master."
The Little Fool obediently went to pour the juice; as a qualified maid, she naturally had to complete her young master's orders as quickly as possible.
[P. S.: I don't want to work hard anymore, Frieren, please take care of me.]
