Can't I Just Raise Myself?

Ryan tried to take the skill book out.

It worked.

"Emmm..."

Looking at the skill book, Ryan had the feeling that a single slap would let him learn some peerless divine technique, but after a moment of hesitation, he gave up. Since it could be farmed, it was better to let 'Lin Qi' learn it first. Once the Game Character's abilities improved, farming as many as he wanted would be no problem.

[Swiftness Lv1 (0/100): Upon use, attack speed and movement speed increase by 20% for 5 seconds. Cooldown: 60 seconds.]

A 60-second cooldown meant it could basically only be used once during a firefight, but the dual speed boost could let 'Lin Qi' burst through at a critical moment, even turning the tide for a comeback.

"This character really is getting better and better."

Ryan rubbed his chin, feeling a sense of planting willows without intent and getting shade. 'Lin Qi' was growing strong, and a beautiful girl was just great, wasn't she?

After learning the skill, 'Lin Qi' left the Church and headed toward the café.

By this time, the nuns had already clocked out; it was free time now, so there was no need to worry about arousing suspicion.

At seven in the evening, 'Lin Qi' appeared at the café entrance.

Ryan's gaze passed through the shop's glass, and he could see 'Lin Qi' standing at the door in her nun's habit. Their eyes met.

"What a strange feeling."

'Lin Qi' had no consciousness of her own; her actions were entirely controlled by Ryan, and whatever she wanted to say could be directly expressed through his thoughts—essentially a will-based avatar of his.

Jingle bell~~

'Lin Qi' pushed the door open.

"Welcome."

Sam, standing behind the register, instinctively looked up and said.

The next moment, his pupils sharply contracted.

It was her!

The nun from last night!

What was she doing here?!

"Boss, a cup of coffee." 'Lin Qi' said in a cool, clear voice.
