Filling in the Blanks, Winning Herself Over...

Soon enough, the two of them threw themselves wholeheartedly into the battle.

Isolte enjoyed this feeling. Fighting against an opponent stronger than herself, every move was pushed to the limit, and her body's instinctive reactions were faster than her brain.

She practices the Water God Style, a sword technique that emphasizes using softness to overcome hardness and borrowing force to strike back. Her foundation is extremely solid, making her particularly resilient to blows.

Luo Ge didn't need to hold back; even if she cut off an arm or leg, he could reattach it on the spot with a healing magic spell.

The wooden sword whistled as it was swung in the moonlight.

Isolte was slapped away, got up, was slapped away again, and got up again.

Her Water God Style became increasingly effective as she was attacked, and her counterattacks became more and more cunning.

Luo Ge observed as he fought, nodding inwardly to himself.

This girl has even greater potential than he imagined; her future achievements will definitely not stop at the level of the Water King.

Becoming the Water Emperor is a piece of cake.

Even the Water God is only a matter of time.

... I don't know how much time passed, but when Isolte collapsed to the ground, exhausted, her chest heaving violently, she didn't even have the strength to lift a finger.

"Alright."

"That concludes your training for tonight."

Luo Ge stopped, finally ending the training session specifically targeting her.

He knelt down and used healing magic to treat the bruises and abrasions on her body one by one. Then, out of kindness, he pointed out a few issues he had observed during their fight.

There are some things I absolutely must tell you, so remember them carefully.

"You rely too much on sensing your opponent's killing intent, and your practical combat experience isn't very rich either."

"Also, your steps were too short and fragmented when you retreated, wasting your energy. You took five steps to cover a distance that should have been covered in two."

"Also, there's a blind spot in your defense when your left hand is free; be more careful next time."

Isolte lay on the ground, panting as she listened, her eyes bright, memorizing every word.

Although he attacked so fiercely just now, Luo Ge must have his own reasons, otherwise he wouldn't have expended his magic to heal him and focused on giving him instructions.

"Thank you so much. Your guidance tonight, Lord Death God, has been incredibly helpful."

"You are welcome."

"By the way, you can still just call me Luo Ge, like before." Luo Ge waved his hand casually, indicating that there was no need for formalities.

Isolte sat up, her eyes crinkling with curiosity. She leaned closer and asked, "By the way, what brings you to City of Ars this time? Are you just passing through? Or did you come specifically to visit me?"

"..."

Luo Ge didn't speak.

Isolte added somewhat awkwardly, "Um... if it's really inconvenient for you, you don't really need to tell me, I don't really want to know."

"It's nothing serious."

"My younger sisters have reached school age, and I'm taking them to Ranoa University of Magic in the north. I just happen to be passing through here."

"So, you knew I lived here, and you came to visit me, right?" Recalling their chance encounter on the street earlier that day, Isolte's eyes lit up instantly.

"Uh, well."

Luo Ge scratched his head.

"Oh, I see."

Isolte nodded in sudden understanding, then her expression tensed up as she realized something. "If I pass by, doesn't that mean... you're leaving soon?"

"Yes, I think I'll leave tomorrow... or the day after tomorrow at the latest. After all, a high-cost place like City of Ars isn't suitable for poor people like us to stay any longer."

Upon hearing this, Isolte's gaze turned somewhat resentful. She wanted to say, "It's okay, I can definitely take care of you."

But after thinking about it, Isolte held back.

She said with a regretful expression.

"I was originally planning to take you sightseeing in City of Ars, but it's a real shame if we're in such a rush..."

She lowered her head and thought for two seconds, then suddenly looked up, her eyes lighting up.

"Wait a moment!"

"Didn't you just say that you were going to Ranoa University of Magic in the north to send your two younger sisters to school?"

"Yes?"

"What's wrong?"

"Great! Can I join your team?" Isolte was overjoyed.

"Ha?"

"Join us?"

"Why is that?!"

"Oh, it's because my master and I are also preparing to go to the Sword Sanctum to pay our respects to the Sword God. If it's convenient, we can certainly travel together."

"You mean the Water God is also going to the Sword Sanctum?"

Isolte made no attempt to hide anything, telling Luo Ge that it was because her master had received a letter from the Sword God, though she didn't know the specifics of its contents.

"I see."

After listening, Luo Ge couldn't help but murmur to himself.

"How about it?"

Isolte closer, her tone filled with anticipation. "Have you decided to come along? Anyway, you're going to Ranoa University of Magic, which is in the north of the Central Continent, and it's on our way to the Sword Sanctum."

Well...

Luo Ge didn't quite understand why Isolte on coming along, but considering Isolte's and the Water God's strength...

Having two more Water God Style bodyguards on the road didn't seem to be a big loss for him, so he nodded.

"Hmm... If Lord Water God has no objections, we can arrange a time... but it's best to be quick, I'm in a hurry."

"It's settled then. I'll personally explain things to Master tomorrow. Wait for my good news."

They chatted like that, and since there wasn't much else to talk about, they suddenly fell silent for a while.

Isolte almost instinctively reached out to hold Luo Ge's hand, her fingers were halfway there when she finally pulled back.

"Um... you..."

Luo Ge noticed her hesitation and looked at her curiously. "If there's nothing else, I'll go back to my room to rest."

"Please wait a moment!"

Isolte quickly spoke, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "One last thing, I want to ask you... have you ever considered getting married?"

"I didn't have this thought before, but now I think I've changed my mind."

"If you were to get married in the future, what type of girl would you most likely choose?"

"Hello!"

"Isolte?"

Why are you suddenly asking this?

Luo Ge was somewhat speechless.

Isolte closer, her eyes narrowed, and pleaded in a deliberately pitiful tone, "Please, please tell me, okay? Just a little bit, I want to know, I dream about it!"

Luo Ge initially didn't want to pay her any attention, but seeing her like this, he had no choice but to give her a perfunctory response.

"How boring! I just can't do anything with a gossipy woman like you, sigh..."

"If I were to get married... I'd most likely look for a woman who's more mature, a bit older, and who's also very caring."

"Older?"

"Mature?"

"Can take care of people?!"

Isolte's eyes widened, and she immediately grasped the key point. "So, Luo Ge, you don't mind being with older women at all?"

"I don't mind!"

Luo Ge nodded seriously.

Isolte then pressed on, "And what about appearance? Are there any special requirements?"

"Uh... any girl will do, no other requirements."

What about the appearance?

"Appearance?"

"For example, hair color?"

"Blue!"

Luo Ge did not hesitate.

This answer sent a shiver down Isolte's spine.

It matches up.

Everything matches up perfectly.

Older, psychologically mature, caring, and with blue hair.

Although my hair is jet black, it has a light blue sheen when exposed to sunlight.

So, rounding up, her hair color is also blue.

When all the details matched up, Isolte's heart, which had been restless and frustrated by her failed confession, was finally satisfied.

One day, I will prove myself to Luo Ge, prove that I am worthy to stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

Having made up her mind, Isolte, but then suddenly turned back and smiled at Luo Ge.

Goodnight, see you tomorrow.

"Okay, see you tomorrow."

"Good night!"

Watching Isolte leave with light steps, her back view radiating a sense of joy, Luo Ge scratched his head.

I don't understand.

Isolte seemed quite pleased with herself after getting a beating from herself?

With these questions in mind, just as Luo Ge was about to return to his room to rest, he suddenly saw someone standing by the corridor.

Blue hair.

He is not tall.

But Roxy is actually very cute.

She was still holding half a piece of bread in her hand, her big, bright blue eyes gazing lazily in this direction.

Huh?

Teacher Roxy?

The instant their eyes met.

... Luo Ge froze on the spot. He hadn't done anything wrong, but for some reason, he felt a strange sense of guilt when he saw Teacher Roxy.
