Li Yu looked speechlessly at Hisako, who was slumped on the ground with a terrified Hisako Arato, and said, "I'm not a ghost. Don't make such a fuss in the future. You'll see plenty more ghosts and such in the future. Also, my panties are showing!"

That pure white dress, thank you for the hospitality. Li Yu looked at Hisako Arato with amusement. Li Yu realized what Hisako Arato meant and immediately stood up, blushing.

"Mr. Li Yu, what are you doing here?!" She knew Li Yu; after all, Erina had shared her experiences in the other world with her. Could the young lady's scream just now have something to do with Li Yu?

Li Yu shrugged and then said, "I'm here to take your young lady away. Natsuki-chan said your young lady also wants to learn True Magic or something, so she asked me to guide her."

Upon hearing this, Hisako Arato immediately understood and hurriedly said, "I'll go help Miss pack her things right away, please wait a moment!!"

After saying that, Hisako Arato ran out to start packing Erina's luggage, since she didn't know how long it would take this time.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Li Yu immediately said, "Why don't you pack your things too, and also call Erina's sister? You can all come with me."

After a moment's thought, Li Yu decided to bring a few more people. Since bringing one or two people was the same, he might as well bring more so they could cook for Asuna and the others together!

Upon hearing Li Yu's words, Hisako Arato was taken aback for a moment, then overjoyed. She quickly said, "Okay, I'll go find Miss Alice right away, please wait a moment!"

After saying that, she hurriedly ran out. This was a wonderful surprise! She thought only the young lady would be going alone, but unexpectedly, Li Yu was taking her along, as well as Alice!

Hisako Arato hurriedly ran to report the news to Senzaemon Nakiri, while Li Yu waited outside. Soon after, Erina came out.

Erina had changed her clothes, had a flushed face. She looked at Li Yu with great dissatisfaction, as Li Yu's sudden appearance had really startled her.

This is outrageous! Suddenly appearing in someone else's room like that is just awful. However, she also found out why Li Yu had come to see her, and she was quite excited.

"Could you please not show up in other people's rooms so casually next time? It's terrifying!" Erina couldn't help but complain to Li Yu.

She hadn't spent much time with Li Yu, but she had gotten to know what kind of person Li Yu was. He was only a little older than her, so there wasn't much of a sense of distance between them.

"I'll definitely do it next time. Get ready, and I'll take you to learn True Magic soon!" Li Yu nodded, gave a casual reply, and then let her go arrange her own affairs.

Hearing this, Erina was incredibly annoyed. What did she mean by "next time for sure"? Was she serious? Erina was at a loss for words.

She took a deep breath, telling herself not to argue with this guy, and then stormed downstairs to prepare for her own business.

Li Yu waited quietly, and soon Hisako Arato returned, accompanied by a girl with short white hair, who was none other than Alice, Erina's cousin.

Erina glanced at Alice but didn't say anything. Even if they were going to argue, they shouldn't do it here, since Li Yu was also there. She still took some things very seriously.

The fact that Li Yu can bring Alice along is good news for them. The world is changing rapidly, and the sooner they can master supernatural powers, the more beneficial it will be for them.

"Everyone's here, let's go!" Li Yu said with a smile, meeting Alice's curious gaze, before leading the group away and disappearing from the spot.

This time, no Magic Array appeared. Before the three of them could react, they felt as if someone had tapped them on the head, and their heads were buzzing!

Erina had previous experience, was alright, just a little caught off guard. After all, when Li Yu teleported her before, there was at least a Magic Array, but now? There was no Magic Array to be seen at all!

"Ugh!"*2. Upon arriving at their destination, Alice and Hisako Arato immediately started vomiting on the spot. Erina's complexion was also not good. She still wasn't used to this. This experience was just too terrible.

"Why so suddenly?!" Erina asked, her face pale. "Where's the Magic Array? Where's my huge Magic Array? Why isn't it here this time? Is this wrong?"

"Because I've become stronger, I no longer need that kind of thing!" Li Yu said this in a serious tone, and then sensed Asuna's location to see where they were.

Upon hearing Li Yu's words, Erina was immediately taken aback. Was becoming stronger really that simple? Was this the right way to do it? Speechless, Erina quickly composed herself.

Asuna and the others were no longer in this city of beginnings, but had begun their journey to the front lines to prepare for battle against the Demon King's Army. The group was already over a hundred kilometers away from here.

Upon realizing this, Li Yu immediately said, "Come on, follow me. I'll take you to this world to get a local specialty first, then you'll learn some skills before heading straight to the front lines."

After confirming the location, Li Yu said this to Asuna and the others, and then started walking towards the city. The three people who heard Li Yu's words were immediately dumbfounded.

What do you mean by taking them directly to the front lines? Good heavens, are they planning to use them as filler characters? They're completely defenseless, and now they're going to send them to the front lines?

But seeing Li Yu leave directly, they didn't dare ask any more questions. Instead, they quickly got up and followed. After catching up with Li Yu, Erina hurriedly asked, "Are you serious about going straight to the front lines?"

She stared at Li Yu in disbelief. Was this right? Were they really sending them up to their deaths?

"Of course I'm serious! Have you ever played online games? What you need to do next is acquire the system of this world, and then start improving your strength to learn skills!" Li Yu nodded with great certainty.

This is no joke. He's not one to joke around. If he says they have to go to the front lines, they have to go. Only through fighting can they become stronger; without fighting, they cannot become stronger.

"But does it have to be the front lines right off the bat? Good grief... Excuse me, is there a resurrection fountain here? If so, please give me one!!" Alice was dumbfounded; this was definitely not good news.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine. Someone will take care of you. Oh right... I almost forgot, you haven't Falna yet. I'll get them sorted out for you after you collect your things." As he spoke, Li Yu remembered the situation of the group.

None of the three had received the Falna of the Gods, but that wasn't a big problem. "Let's go change jobs first," Li Yu thought, leading the three bewildered people to the guild. They were thus led by Li Yu to receive a card and change jobs in a daze.

Erina is suited to be True Magic, Hisako Arato is suited to be a knight, and Alice is suited to be a warrior. The three of them received their cards and learned their purpose.

This thing is basically a game panel, allowing them to learn True Magic. Everyone looked at the small cards in their hands with some confusion, but what followed made them even more bewildered.

Because Li Yu led them directly into the hotel, and after checking them into a room, Li Yu said to the three of them, "Take off your clothes, expose your backs, and I'll give you a Falna. This is the foundation for you to become stronger in the battles to come!"

Upon hearing this, the three young women blushed deeply. They didn't move, instead stammering and unsure what to do, especially in front of a strange man...

"What are you all so shy about? It's not like we're asking you to take your whole bodies off. Goodness, you didn't react this much to those backless dresses you wore to the banquet!" Li Yu rolled his eyes, annoyed. He couldn't understand girls' thoughts.

Then she turned and walked out of the room. The three women were stunned. After exchanging a glance, they could only obediently get to work. Once they were finished, Erina called out to the outside, "It's done... you can come in now!"

Hearing the sound, Li Yu walked in. The three of them had already exposed their smooth backs and were facing away from Li Yu. Seemingly noticing Li Yu arrival, Erina hurriedly said, "You're not allowed to look!!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yu rolled his eyes and retorted irritably, "To be honest, if I wanted to see, you wouldn't have any secrets from me. I know exactly how many moles you have, whether you're Divine Beast or not, Erina?!"

After saying that, Li Yu didn't bother to waste any more words with them. He simply gave the three of them a Falna for leveling up and left. However, his words immediately stunned Erina and Alice.

Good heavens... So, Li Yu has absolutely no secrets from them? Suddenly, the two of them felt incredibly uncomfortable. Were they the Divine Beast Li Yu was talking about?

"Hurry up, we're leaving soon, don't dawdle!" Li Yu shouted from outside to the people inside, urging them to come out quickly.

The three of them looked at each other in surprise when they heard Li Yu's urging. They quickly straightened their clothes and came out of the room.

Erina wanted to say something, but didn't know how to put it into words. The situation was just too awkward. Did Li Yu really see it? Really?

However, before she could even speak, Li Yu immediately took action. Taking the three of them with him and ignoring his deposit, Li Yu teleported directly to Asuna's location.

At this moment, several hundred kilometers away, Asuna and her group were setting up camp with a group of junior students when suddenly, the warning True Magic set up by Sakayori Iroha reacted, and everyone picked up their weapons and looked at the location from which the warning had been sent!
