Dog Brother saw Su Mo intending to stew him and instantly turned pale, wailing with a snotty nose and tears.
However, he knew Su Mo wasn't lying. Summoned as a Caster, Dog Brother naturally understood the methods mages used to recover mana, one of which was consuming high-calorie food.
After letting Dog Brother go, Su Mo felt a bit dizzy, a result of his depleted mana.
The earlier threat of stewing Dog Brother was just to scare him; Su Mo wouldn't actually do it. So, he commanded, "How much longer do you plan to stay? Hurry up and go Spiritually Manifest for me! Do you want me to stew you?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Dog Brother quickly nodded and instantly Spiritually Manifested, disappearing from everyone's sight.
As for Mash, although she was his Servant, she consumed Chaldea's mana. Not only that, but the mana for Servants summoned through Saint Graphs was also supplied by Chaldea. Otherwise, how could Ritsuka Fujimaru, who was at the bottom among Masters, have contracted so many Servants? Let alone supporting so many Servants in activating their Noble Phantasms.
At most, the mana of an excellent magus could only support Servants activating their Noble Phantasms once or twice. Any more, and the operation of their mana circuits would have long since collapsed.
Su Mo being able to last this long was undeniably a feat. Or perhaps, being a Heroic Spirit himself, he possessed more abundant mana than other mages?
Thinking about it, Kiyohime had used her own mana to activate her Noble Phantasm twice, and then Big Dog had used his own mana to activate his at least three more times! Good heavens, Su Mo realized it was a miracle he hadn't fainted by now! (Kiyohime was summoned using the system's Summoning Ticket, consuming the protagonist's mana.)
"Um... Kiyohime, you..."
Su Mo originally intended to order Kiyohime to Spiritually Manifest, but before he could finish speaking, his vision went black, and he fainted.
"Master."
"Senpai!"
Kiyohime and Mash both rushed over, but Kiyohime was a step faster. She caught Su Mo and anxiously checked his physical condition, her beautiful face now filled with worry.
"Don't worry, he's just exhausted his mana. He'll recover after a good sleep," the Director stepped forward to explain.
"No matter how excellent a magus is, if their Servants recklessly squander their power without restraint, the Master will still feel fatigued. Honestly, it's already a miracle that Su Mo managed to hold on until Mash's training was finished."
In a teachers' lounge at a school.
His consciousness returning, Su Mo's eyelids twitched slightly. He felt his head resting on something soft, bouncy, and incredibly elastic. The sensation made him sigh in comfort.
A unique, faint floral scent wafted into his nose. At this moment, Su Mo realized what he was actually resting his head on.
It was the legendary *pillow!
"Huh? You're awake already?"
Kiyohime's delicate and beautiful face flushed with a captivating blush. Her fair, small hand caressed Su Mo's face, then, as if thinking of something amusing, she said with a hint of playful malice.
"Don't open your eyes yet. Guess who I am!"
Su Mo obediently kept his eyes closed, shifting his head to lean more comfortably. He then began to comment, "This full and elastic feeling, and this clear and pleasant voice... it must be my little *honey Anna!" (He had a mistress in his previous world while married.)
Kiyohime was stunned at first, then looked at Su Mo with surprise, her eyes seeming to say, Goodness, he looks no older than 17 and already has a mistress.
"That's not it," Kiyohime shook her head, denying his guess.
"Not it? Then let me think again?" Su Mo pondered for a moment, and Kiyohime watched him with anticipation.
"Then it must be my second *honey Lilya!"
Kiyohime almost choked with anger, suppressing the urge to violently throw Su Mo off her lap. She gritted her teeth and said, "That's not it!"
