Chapter 44
Chapter Forty-Four You Must Take Responsibility Properly ❤~~~
“If only there was a magic like creating duplicates, then I wouldn’t have to worry about my safety no matter how much fun I have outside.”
As he said this, Bái Yǔ started rummaging through the bookshelves. This monster leader’s personal study was enormous, and despite spending over half a year buried in it, Bái Yǔ hadn’t even touched half of the books on the shelves.
“What’s the point of having so many books if they can’t be taken out? The study is only accessible to the leader…”
While searching for the duplicate spell, Bái Yǔ complained, “How could a single person learn so many spells under normal circumstances? Do you think I’m a professor?”
If not for Bái Yǔ frequently taking photos of the content in the magic books and posting them in the group chat, many spells in the library would have gone to waste! For instance, the Black Wind Spell that the Black Bear Monster learned came from here. The Black Bear Monster had wind attribute magic energy, which suited this skill perfectly.
Bái Yǔ’s magic energy attribute was dark, and ironically, he had never found any dark magic books in the library. Creating a magic array only required using magic energy as fuel, with no strict requirements regarding its attribute…
“Hmm?”
As he was internally complaining, Bái Yǔ suddenly noticed a scroll falling out from a yellowed book. He picked it up and unfolded it, reading its contents…
“Split Body Magic”
“Alright… although it’s not quite what I expected.”
Sighing, Bái Yǔ began to try running the magic according to the instructions on the scroll. About half an hour later—
“Snap!”
Bái Yǔ slashed off his left arm! The severed arm, dripping black blood, fell to the ground, but it started emitting black light and swelling abnormally. Ten seconds later, the arm had grown into a replica of Bái Yǔ!
“Swoosh!”
With a thought, Bái Yǔ’s intact left arm grew back from the stump. In fact, as the monster leader, his physical regeneration speed was incredibly fast. His biggest issue was that destroying his magic core would result in instant death. If he could solve this problem, he would be nearly invincible.
But now, it seemed he might have solved it…
Looking at his newly formed body, Bái Yǔ moved his mind… His main body fell straight down, and the previously unconscious duplicate opened its eyes, beginning to sense its bodily condition.
“The duplicate lacks a magic core, and the magic energy inside is only a third of the original… This should be a significant weakening for most monsters.”
Clenching his fist, Bái Yǔ smiled, “But it doesn’t matter to me. After all, my magic energy isn’t very high, and I usually use pre-prepared magic arrays in battles.”
“Whoosh!”
Bái Yǔ slashed off the duplicate’s arm again. However, unlike the first arm, this one turned into black ash and vanished without leaving behind anything. There was no mention of the duplicate regenerating a new one.
Then, Bái Yǔ stabbed the duplicate’s chest, and the entire duplicate dissolved into magic energy, flowing back into his main body. Afterward, Bái Yǔ’s main body opened his eyes, revealing a very satisfied expression.
“Although it’s not the kind of magic where I just make a seal and create a bunch of duplicates, having something is better than nothing.”
Bái Yǔ returned the scroll to the bookshelf, thinking he would use this until he found a more powerful duplicate spell. If not for his body being able to self-regulate pain, most people would find it quite troublesome to use this magic!
Afterward, Bái Yǔ thought about how he had nothing to do, so he spent the afternoon reading in the study until nightfall. After the events of last night, his mind was clear for a while. Without any distractions, he actually managed to create three new magic arrays in the afternoon.
“It’s already night… Mèng Yuè probably went to the cafeteria again.”
Rubbing his eyes, Bái Yǔ put down his book and muttered, “Come to think of it, after she became a monster cadre, she won’t be smiling naively like before. She wouldn’t be clueless about eating anymore if she didn’t have anyone to feed her.”
Strange… It should be good that she can eat by herself now, yet why do I feel unhappy?
Feeding Mèng Yuè seems to be so hard to let go… Or maybe I just like taking care of a naive and obedient beauty?
Walking out of the study, Bái Yǔ returned to his room. As soon as he opened the door, a familiar voice immediately echoed…
“Welcome back, master cat!”
A soft body pressed against him, and Mèng Yuè pouted, “Where did you go in the afternoon, master? I haven’t shared my success with you yet!”
“I… I was reading a book!”
After a few seconds of hesitation, Bái Yǔ reached out to stroke Mèng Yuè’s head, asking, “Isn’t it mealtime? I thought you’d definitely be in the cafeteria.”
Damn master! It’s your fault! If you hadn’t fed me crazily every day, making me accustomed to eating without effort… How could I feel so uncomfortable in the cafeteria because no one feeds me? You’ve ruined me!
You schemed to turn me into a fool cat that can’t live without you, I never imagined you could be so despicable! Since that’s the case…
Despicable master, you must take responsibility properly!
“Can’t help it!”
Burrowing her head into Bái Yǔ’s arms, Mèng Yuè smiled happily, “Compared to eating myself, I prefer being fed by you! So please buy some food from the cafeteria to feed me!”
“A slave soldier, ordering the master around?”
Although he was still happy, Bái Yǔ pinched her cheeks, saying, “Remember, whether I feed you depends entirely on my mood!”
“Grrr… But I can make you happy!”
Pinched by the cheeks, Mèng Yuè laughed cheerfully, “I’m super useful! I can warm your bed and help you fight magical girls! And… Ah~~~”
In the end, Mèng Yuè opened her mouth eagerly! Her desire was growing harder to contain, and she couldn’t even finish her prepared speech, wanting Bái Yǔ to feed her immediately!
At this moment, more than half of the magic core inside Mèng Yuè had been converted into a beast core by purple corruption…
“But… what you said does make sense.”
Pretending to think, Bái Yǔ then took out his phone, “So what do you want to eat? I’ll have it delivered.”
