It was a blonde woman dressed casually, lying on her side on the bed.

She was dressed in a very revealing and alluring way, and lying on her side, she exuded the charm of a mature woman.

Welcome!

Lucretia chuckled lazily, "I apologize for appearing in this state. My spiritual vision sensed divine power and went to watch the divine war, only to get caught up in it..."

"In order to protect myself on that battlefield, it was necessary to use magic beyond my limits. As a result, my magical power is now completely depleted, and it will take about three months to recover. I cannot use large-scale spells for the time being, and I cannot even move my body."

"Oh, well then you can lie down."

Kusanagi Shizuka blinked, unconcerned, and asked curiously, "Speaking of which, you're Grandpa's friend, right?"

"Yes, we spent some time together when we were young, and it was truly a pleasant experience."

Lucretia smiled and said, "You're wondering why I look so young, aren't you?"

"It's very simple. Maintaining a youthful body is a privilege that only witches with masterful magical powers can possess."

A witch... can maintain her youth even as she gets older?!

Besides flying, Kusanagi Shizuka once again felt a strong sense of impact.

No... For a woman, becoming an old woman is obviously the hardest thing to accept; even flying seems less important in comparison.

Ming Ge could only retort, "She's definitely a girl~"

Chapter 163 Becoming His Shape

"Witch, how wonderful."

Kusanagi Shizuka sighed.

"It's actually quite simple."

Ming Ge chuckled and said, "I'll teach you when I want to learn."

"Thank you, Master."

Upon hearing this, Kusanagi Shizuka's eyes lit up, and she smiled sweetly.

"By the way, who are this young man and that young lady?"

Lucretia didn't refute it, after all, she had said before that it was a witch's privilege, but Ming Ge still said so, which meant that he had other ways to maintain his appearance.

She was simply very interested in Ming Ge, but as a traditional witch, she couldn't see through Ming Ge.

Witches like her possess the power of spiritual vision, allowing them to probe into the Hidden World and obtain information about others, including deities.

Therefore, encountering someone who cannot see through things is the rarest thing.

"I'm Ming Ge, and I'm kind of this girl's mentor in magic."

Ming Ge patted Kusanagi Shizuka's head and said, "Even though it was just harvested today..."

"I am Erica Brantley, who comes for the disobedient god of the island."

Erica nodded slightly and said nothing more, appearing rather docile.

To be honest, Ming Ge still prefers Erica's previous rebellious and unruly demeanor.

"I see..."

Lucretia's gaze flickered slightly as she looked at Kusanagi Shizuka, then she shook her head and said, "This child doesn't seem to have much talent."

Learning magic requires talent, just like Erica's maid, Arianna. She has neither talent in magic nor in swordsmanship, so she can only become Erica's maid to take care of her daily life.

Although Lucretia claims to have lost her magical powers, it's impossible that she truly has no ability to face danger. Spiritual vision is also a core ability of witches, so it's not surprising that she could see through Kusanagi Shizuka's aptitude.

Is that so?

Kusanagi Shizuka looked at Ming Ge.

"Qualifications don't matter, as long as you have the belief."

Ming Ge shrugged.

"Do I even have faith?"

Kusanagi Shizuka said doubtfully.

Who knows?

"You're a high school student now, and you should be able to think for yourself about what you want to do in the future."

Ming Ge smiled and said, "As long as you have an idea, I can make it happen for you."

"Hmm..."

At this moment, Kusanagi Shizuka had many questions and was also pondering Ming Ge's words.

As for future plans... Kusanagi Shizuka never expected to come into contact with such outrageous things. Her original plans for the future were quite ordinary, so she couldn't figure it out for a while.

However, now is not the time to consider these things, so we can only postpone them.

"Oh, right, this... something Grandpa asked me to return to you."

Kusanagi Shizuka shook her head and returned the stone slab to Lucretia.

"This is... the 'Prometheus's Grimoire'. It really is this. I discovered this thing deep in the Caucasus Mountains a long time ago. How nostalgic!"

Since there was no White Horse present, and therefore no divine power of the White Horse was stored inside, Lucretia accepted the stone tablet.

However... for some reason, she ultimately returned the stone slab to Kusanagi Shizuka.

You should keep this; you might find it useful.

Lucretia said lazily, "If you don't need it, you can return it to me later."

Kusanagi Shizuka didn't quite understand, then looked at Ming Ge.

"Put it away, we'll talk about the rest tomorrow."

After Ming Ge spoke, Kusanagi Shizuka finally accepted the stone slab with peace of mind.

After a series of events, it's already afternoon, so we'll stay here for the night.
