After being scammed a few times, I became more vigilant and less easily fooled.

In fact, Ming Ge himself also felt very ashamed, after all, he and Alfia had not been able to fully open up, Meitellia could only complain about wasting a good opportunity.

Ming Ge and Meitellia's relationship has grown closer, but that doesn't mean they've reached the point where they can bathe together.

It's not entirely impossible, but it would be too shameful for Alfia at this point.

Ultimately, the three people's relationship is one of mutual attraction, but also one where they all feel awkward with each other.

"So comfortable."

After seeking Hera's help to update the Falna, the first thing the three did upon returning to their room was to run a bath.

Meitellia and Alfia lay in the bathroom, enjoying themselves with their eyes half-closed.

"It's a pity Ming Ge isn't here, otherwise I could have asked her to help me scrub my back."

Meitellia exhaled and said regretfully.

"I don't have your shamelessness."

Alfia curled her lip and said, "I'm warning you, don't pull any more crazy tricks. Come to think of it, I've never been able to beat you up before, so experiencing it once won't be bad."

"Hmph, we're twins, born only minutes apart. Trying to act like the 'older sister' won't work at all."

Meitellia snorted and laughed, "Besides, compared to me, my sister is much more childish. If anyone should be disciplining you, it should be me."

Alfia's lips twitched.

This was the first time her younger sister had ever said something like that to her.

He really did go astray.

"Whatever you want, just don't cause any trouble."

Alfia tapped Meitellia on the head and warned her again.

"It hurts." Seeing Alfia take action, Meitellia could only look at her pitifully, making Alfia feel a little awkward.

"Stop pretending, I didn't use any force at all."

Alfia rolled her eyes in annoyance.

Damn it, what is this pathetic look?!

Seeing Meitellia's adorable, teary-eyed appearance, Alfia wanted to hug her, but felt awkward about it.

After all, she's a proud and aloof person, and she doesn't usually express her feelings properly.

Meitellia's cute antics did make her seem a bit difficult to deal with.

"Hehe~"

Meitellia stuck out her tongue, making a cute, adorable gesture.

Seeing Meitellia's expression, Alfia could only snort coldly and ignore her.

Before long, Meitellia started chattering away again, causing Alfia to repeatedly lose her composure.

"Poor tsundere, being completely manipulated by her own little angel."

Ming Ge was sitting in the living room, and sighed as if she could see the scene in the bathroom.

In fact, with his perception, he could hear the two sisters playing in the water even while sitting in the living room.

He could even see them from a godlike perspective if he wanted to, but there's no need for it.

If Ming Ge is willing to put aside her pride, she can go in now; there's no need to sneak around.

After listening to their conversation for a while, Ming Ge stopped paying attention.

Instead, they began to replicate Meitellia's performance today and to plan for the future.

"After a day of training, my magic power increased by 22, and other physical stats also increased by an average of 14. The rate of progress is not bad."

Ming Ge, reflecting on Meitellia's performance today and estimating Meitellia rate of improvement in combat, said with satisfaction, "At Meitellia's rate of progress, she'll be able to start close-combat training in a few days."

While double digits may not seem like much, they are actually quite high.

It's quite normal for many adventurers to only gain single-digit increases or even none at all each time.

It's not just that adventurers are approaching their limits, leading to slow progress, but also because many adventurers only operate in the upper safe zones.

The essence of Falna is training—training data in battle to achieve great things. Both of these require taking risks while ensuring a certain level of safety.

It would be absurd to see someone make significant progress by not taking any risks at all, but instead bullying weak creatures like goblins.

Besides these factors, there were other reasons for Meitellia's rapid progress.

For example, exercise methods.

Because of the existence of Falna, this world has seen many shortcuts taken.

This includes training in mental strength, which is basically done by using magic and growing by consuming magical energy.

Ming Ge's Spiritual Training Method involves repeatedly refining and compressing magical power to train it, thereby fostering growth through training.

Physical abilities are constantly honed through Gravity Magic inscribed on the body, and Meditation Recovery Method can quickly restore physical and mental strength. Therefore, this progress is not ordinary, but it is not outrageous either.

Moreover, although Meitellia was clumsy, she tried her best and didn't really treat it as a game.

"Now it's time to consider my problem."

Ming Ge murmured to herself, then turned her attention back to herself.

His rate of growth also slowed down.

The slowing of his physical growth and the gradual increase in his magical power are signs that his physical strength and mental power are gradually reaching their limits.

"Well, I suppose that's close to the limit."

Ming Ge pondered.

Important changes occur in the brain during human learning, including the formation of new connections between neurons—a phenomenon known as neuroplasticity.

The more you practice, the stronger these connections become.

As connections strengthen, information (nerve impulses) is transmitted faster and more efficiently.
