Chapter 649: Talia's Girlish Guise
Chapter 649: Talia's Girlish Guise
A string of red-brick buildings bathed in the golden orange sunset of 5 o'clock in the afternoon, silently telling the long history of Ikelite with their solemn and majestic posture.
When the most dazzling rays of the setting sun penetrate the dense foliage, the stone exterior wall of the dormitory of the Sage's College is bathed in a layer of golden twilight.
It was in such a corridor, alternately bright and dark, next to the lobby, that Lanchi found his dormitory.
"When we get home, hurry up and let me out."
A familiar voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
"How are you still able to talk to me?"
Lanchi replied in astonishment through his thoughts.
"The Great Lover Poet should be able to do that normally."
Talia felt as if she had been half-sealed in Lanchi's soul space.
Lanchi quickly opened the door to his dormitory. With a crisp unlocking sound, the heavy door, along with the barrier behind it, swung open, and he went in and locked the door.
"That's true, but I usually seal her up."
Lanchi questioned her in his mind, completely baffled.
While the Great Lover Poet could indeed be summoned on her own, it was on the premise that Lanchi had granted her freedom.
Talia, however, seemed to have the authority to act independently, without needing Lanchi's permission.
"I'm stronger than you. How can you seal me?"
Talia rebutted reasonably.
"......"
Lanchi felt that the side effects of this sister card were indeed too strong.
The Great Lover Poet should at least abide by some reasoning, but Talia was utterly unrestrained.
Indeed, powerful cards always come with corresponding risks.
Suddenly, as a fragrant scent filled the air, a figure, like a sprite amidst the flowers, materialized from the magic that had coalesced beside Lanchi, appearing not far from him.
"Do you really consider me a sister card?"
Talia asked coldly.
She always heard Lanchi and the Great Lover Poet refer to beautiful summons in such a way, but she actually hated the term "sister card" and didn't like the idea of Lanchi having more of them.
"Then you really are beautiful."
Lanchi replied.
"......"
Talia paused for a moment.
She had confirmed countless times that Lanchi genuinely found her beautiful.
Even at Golden Bee Amusement Park, when describing his impression of her, the first thing he mentioned was her beauty.
"Feel free to sit anywhere. Give me a list of the daily necessities you need, and I'll go buy them for you."
Lanchi picked up Talia's suitcase and walked past the coat rack next to the entrance, stepping into the most spacious living room of the dormitory. He drew the curtains and turned on the lights.
The sofa was adorned with cushions and blankets in warm hues, while a vintage floor lamp stood quietly by.
Inside, the fading sunlight filtered gently through the gaps in the curtains, casting a soft glow on the various brown wooden furniture in the room, creating an especially warm and inviting ambiance.
Lanchi placed her suitcase on the cabinet and sat down on the sofa to exchange urgently needed magic cards with Cat Boss.
In a non-combat state, purple rare and below magic cards can be freely soul-bound and unbound, allowing for exchanges with others.
"......"
Talia surveyed Lanchi's home and sat down on the other side of the sofa.
The last time she had brought Shubelian to school, she had coincidentally visited Lanchi's dormitory.
It was then that she had stumbled upon Lanchi playing dress-up with the Great Lover Poet using transformation magic cards.
"Here, take these two cards. Now that you possess the attributes of the Great Lover Poet, you should be able to use them as well."
Lanchi took out two purple semi-transparent magic cards that he had unbound—the 【Great Lover Poet Transformation: Human】 and 【Great Lover Poet Transformation: Dragon Demon】.
Talia looked at the cards Lanchi handed her.
【Great Lover Poet Transformation: Human】
【Category: Spell Card】
【Grade: Purple Rare】
【Attribute: Concealment】
【Class: 4】
【Effect: For Great Lover Poet's use only. After use, can transform race into human and change clothing, without altering physical appearance. Significantly increases affinity and charm. Cooldown time: 24 hours.】
【Note: In a world without pain, interrupt the endless noise. In a gentle cage, let me satisfy you.】
She hesitated slightly as she took out the 【Great Lover Poet Transformation: Human】 card.
As the magic card was triggered, her figure transformed into that of a pure and elegant black-haired maiden, with verdant green eyes that shimmered with a lively clarity. Her long skirt was graceful and airy, paired with a pair of petite black shoes.
"Not bad at all."
Talia commented to herself.
She got up to admire her reflection in the mirror.
The last time she had seen Lanchi using transformation magic cards to dress up the Great Lover Poet, she had felt nothing but disgust. Now that she could use them herself, she found the cards to be rather ingenious inventions.
"Make more of these cards in the future."
Holding her skirt, she turned to inspect the back in the mirror and instructed as if granting permission.
"Didn't you say that these skin cards are the most useless things?"
Lanchi asked, puzzled.
Talia was behaving just like someone trying on clothes in a department store!
"That's a version issue," Talia explained earnestly, not forgetting her role as Lanchi's magic card teacher. "Some useless, old-fashioned magic cards may become extremely popular due to changes in the times and environment."
"You want to be super popular, don't you..."
Lanchi felt she was talking about herself.
"What?"
Talia focused her attention on him.
"Nothing," Lanchi shook his head vigorously.
After exchanging magic cards, he got up from the sofa and quickly headed into the workshop.
The living room of the dormitory was connected to a workshop on one side.
"Then tomorrow, you can transform into a human form, wear these clothes, and go to school with me."
Soon, Lanchi took out a set of ironed clothes from the wardrobe in the workshop and handed them to Talia.
"No problem, I'll try them on to see if they fit."
Talia took the clothes and went into the workshop.
She was now excited to try on her new outfit.
...
A long time passed.
Talia finally opened the door again.
She seemed to be struggling with whether or not to open the door.
Her cheeks were flushed, and she bowed slightly, bending her knees and tugging at her skirt.
Talia emerged from the workshop with stiff strides. She had changed into a fitted black shirt with a collar and a necktie, a beige-colored jacket adorned with the golden emblem of the Kingdom of Horton and the insignia of the Magic Engineering Institute, and a short skirt that failed to conceal her pure and snowy white skin.
"Lanchi... Can you explain to me why the skirt is so short?"
She lifted her gaze with difficulty and asked, her eyes fixed on Lanchi.
"Pffft!"
Lanchi immediately covered his mouth, desperately trying to suppress the shaking of his shoulders.
He was in agony, feeling that even biting down on his teeth wouldn't hold back his expression.
Although he had expected this.
He never imagined that it would be so amusing in reality.
"..."
Talia's face turned dark with anger, and she glared at him in disbelief as killing intent slowly gathered in the living room.
She took slow steps toward Lanchi.
"No, no, no! I did remind Lanfu that according to the regulations, it shouldn't be changed into a miniskirt. She altered it on her own!"
Lanchi explained loudly, feeling a chill down his spine.
"..."
Talia paused in her tracks.
It was indeed the truth.
So it wasn't that Lanchi wanted to see her legs and deliberately made her skirt so short.
"But why did you laugh?"
Talia continued to approach Lanchi, her killing intent unabated as she questioned him.
"There's a cuteness that's hard to describe."
Lanchi tried to justify himself.
He had completely failed to convince Talia!
He shuffled on the sofa, putting some more distance between them.
"Cute?"
Talia was lost in thought.
That's not right.
According to the normal human definition, shouldn't it be "sexy"? Why "cute"?
"Meow."
Cat Boss finally understood what Lanchi meant.
An 800-year-old master wearing a short skirt and looking youthful and vibrant—that was indeed "cute."
"Wait, come back here!"
Talia finally understood, pointing at Lanchi and shouting.
Because at that moment, Lanchi had already started running for his life.
The two of them dashed around the coffee table, one chasing and the other fleeing, creating a ruckus in Lanchi's dormitory.
"What a lively bunch."
Cat Boss sat on the floor, shaking his head and sighing.
It seemed that peace would be elusive in this home from now on.
