Chapter 225: 224 ‘You Slacking Princess.
“Gaaaa——!!”
Maybe sensing the threat of death, the half-human half-centipede monster finally let out a frantic shriek.
Seeing Luoqi holding the dazzling Holy Sword, resembling a Goddess descending from the heavens, charging in her direction, the monster made a desperate attempt.
“Boom!”
Bound by the earth, the monster could only spit out Dragon Breath, sending forth the mightiest Dragon Breath yet to rise into the sky, like a scorching waterfall surging toward Luoqi.
Luoqi, facing the immense Dragon Breath, was utterly calm. Instead of dodging, she charged straight into it.
“Clang!”
The radiance of the Holy Sword spread over Luoqi’s body.
“Hum!”
The Guardian Light also began to shimmer.
Under the protection of the Heroic Spirit Guardian, Luoqi could already resist the attack of the Dragon Breath to some extent. Now, with the power of the Holy Sword, the damage inflicted upon her was reduced by more than half. The monster’s Dragon Breath could no longer pose any threat to Luoqi.
And so, Luoqi, like a beam of light flowing against a waterfall, broke through the scorching Dragon Breath and rushed in front of the monster.
“Slash!”
The next second, Luoqi raised the Holy Sword, adding the Magical Sword’s radiance to its blade.
It’s worth mentioning that the originally red glow of the Magical Sword turned into a dazzling gold color upon blending with the Holy Power of the Holy Sword.
The golden Magical Sword emerged from the Holy Sword and was brought down by Luoqi in a swift strike. It entered at the top of the monster’s head and exited at the end of its centipede-like body, like a beam of light sweeping across, instantly slashing through the entire length of the monster.
“————”
The monster’s shrieking came to an abrupt halt.
“Tap!”
Amidst the distinct sound of footsteps, Luoqi, holding the dazzling Holy Sword, also landed on the ground, her back to the monster as she slowly converged all her Magic Power.
Behind her, the monster stiffened, motionless for a long while, until after some time, a fine line appeared in the middle of its body.
Centered on that fine line, the monster’s body split in two, sliding toward completely opposite directions, collapsing to the ground.
“Thud…”
A neat thumping sound of crashing resonated.
The bifurcated monster stirred up dust and debris before collapsing onto the ground, motionless henceforth.
“Phew…”
It was only then that Luoqi exhaled, turned around, and looked at Shane.
Shane, with one hand holding the Holy Sword and the other giving Luoqi a thumbs-up, said,
“Nobody does it cooler than you.”
Shane offered a somewhat negligent compliment.
Luoqi immediately rolled her eyes, ignoring the teasing Shane while she began resealing the Holy Sword and approached him.
“Was that Grant Magic you just used?” Luoqi arrived in front of Shane, sounding quite surprised: “So that’s the magic you chose from the library, huh?”
“How so?” Shane blinked and said, “Didn’t I mention it before?”
“No more!” Luoqi defiantly said, “When I asked you before what type of magic system you chose, you not only didn’t tell me but also pretentiously told me that I would find out eventually.”
“Right.” Shane felt no embarrassment and responded, “Now you know, don’t you?”
“You… this guy…” Luoqi couldn’t help but slap Shane’s chest lightly before continuing, “But this magic does suit you, with its high versatility, and only those with outstanding magic power can truly bring out its potential. It’s as if it was tailor-made for you.”
“Cut it out, you were born with enough magic power to shake the Divine World, you have no right to talk about me.” Shane didn’t take it seriously but then curiously added, “That said, with such strong magic power, why don’t you study magic?”
Luoqi’s skills were all from the Warrior Series, at most augmented by skills from the Magic Power Amplification System and Magic Recovery Series, with no skills related to magic at all.
“Such strong magic power, wouldn’t it be a waste not to study magic?”
That’s what Shane believed.
But Luoqi didn’t think so.
“Almost all the heroes in history have been melee warriors because their strongest weapon is the Holy Sword. Since it’s a sword, could you possibly use the Holy Sword as a Magic Wand and be a mage?” Luoqi said, “Although some heroes are well-versed in magic, since they already have the Holy Sword, rather than allocating Skill Points to upgrade Magic Series skills, it’s better to specialize in Warrior Series skills. Only by doing so can one level up more skills quickly and become even more powerful.”
A person’s Skill Points are limited. If one were to pursue magic as well, they would need to invest a large number of Skill Points into Magic Series skills, which would result in slower progress for Warrior Series skills.
Indeed, this would provide additional magic capabilities, and one’s strength is sure to increase, but Luoqi believes that the Holy Sword is her greatest weapon. She, destined to be a melee warrior using the Holy Sword, thought it better to invest all her Skill Points into Warrior Series skills.
“Besides, studying magic is so dry and dull; it also requires a lot of time for research. I’m already very busy, and I sure don’t want to spend extra time studying to the point where I don’t even have time to rest.”
Luoqi expressed this very seriously, earning herself an eye roll from Shane.
“Fine, you make sense, you Slacking Princess.” Shane changed the subject, “Enough of this, let’s go check out that monster.”
“Yeah.” Luoqi nodded and whispered, “I’ve never seen a monster like that before, it’s mysterious and odd, and yet so strong, we must bring its corpse back for the Magic Research Department to analyze.”
Talking this way, the two of them came before the monster that was cut in half and looked over.
But just by looking, Shane and Luoqi were shocked.
“Shhh…”
Before their eyes, the monster’s corpse suddenly started smoking, as though being consumed by invisible flames, its body becoming elusive, swaying gradually, and eventually, like a real mirage, it disappeared without a trace.
“This…”
Shane was stunned at the sight.
“Gone?”

Luoqi was equally astounded.
The two stood there, looking at the now empty ground, unable to recover their senses for a long time until after quite some time they exchanged glances, both falling into a speechless state.
The unusual situation left them both somewhat at a loss.
“Now look, the body simply evaporated.”
Shane muttered as if it was none of his concern.
“How could this happen?”
Luoqi also deeply furrowed her brow.
Even if the monster possessed a half-physical nature, it shouldn’t just vanish after being slain, should it?
Although intangible demons also dissipate into thin air when defeated, they usually leave behind some sort of core-like material. They don’t completely disappear like this.
What on earth was going on?
Shane and Luoqi remained silent, continuously pondering, unable to speak for a long time.
