Defying the Fate of Beheading

Wanting to manipulate the material handling of this master-servant pair in a multi-threaded manner is very difficult.

Not to mention, there's also the Grip of Greed constantly twisting the surrounding force fields and causing trouble.

If you can't do it, sudden death is the final outcome.

Even if you manage to do it, many people will overlook one problem.

And that is after the blood returns to the body... Louis's [Telekinetic Hand] can finally move these "materials."

Because this blood has already been controlled by Louis, without the influence of extraordinary powers, many small spells will become the scythe reaping for the Death God.

This series of operations ultimately created the result that ——

The Minotaur, clearly an exemplary monster, was directly killed with one strike by Louis from several hundred meters away.

"Well done, kid, you really know how to deduce from one instance to another."

Floating beside Louis, Master Merlin remarked appreciatively.

Louis, this kid, his understanding of professional skills is getting more and more exaggerated.

Doing the biggest thing with the least effort, that's the principle Merlin taught him.

Now Louis has well executed this principle.

This kind of almost insulting but extremely useful combat method really opened Merlin's eyes.

To put it not so nicely, if outsiders do not know the details of this series of operations,

then, even if they have a professional level of LV20, they are likely to be killed on first encounter.

Compared to pure strength, this technical fighting style has greater significance for spreading broadly.

It's just a pity for the Minotaur, who died really too tragically.

Olivia thought this, but tears involuntarily flowed from the corner of her mouth.

Dancing with wolves?

Instant kill!

Steel spear pierces the neck of an earth dragon?

Instant kill!

While other adventurers were still nervously pondering how to pass the first round of tests, Louis and his team had already completed the pass with the first-grade result.

"It's a bit too much."

Olivia whispered.

Looking at the thick-cut steak roasting on the rack, the little swan said with a serious face:

"You still have to bleed it first, if you don't, there will be a bit of a bloody smell, and it won't taste good."

Louis didn't even want to bother with her.

The dead Minotaur, wasn't it better for him to extract the blood?!

This bad girl is just trying to ruin his determination to fight with all his heart.

If the little swan knew Louis's thoughts, she would definitely yell that she was wronged.

She just felt that people like Louis who play tactics really have a dirty mind.

And also...

"Mainly it seems that this contest suddenly became somewhat dull."

Yes.

With Louis directly using a big move to instantly kill his opponent, everyone's spring hunt really lost the sense of experience.

"What is the task on the second day?"

Louis looked at the little swan who was gnawing on a steak.

Perhaps because the steak was freshly grilled and too hot, she fumbled clumsily.

Louis was speechless.

With a simple material manipulation, he suspended the steak in mid-air.

The little swan didn't mind this strange posture, she simply let go, and directly leaned forward to nibble on the steak fixed in mid-air.

The scene... was rather wild.

Seeing that the little swan had finished eating one side, Louis thoughtfully turned it over for her.

...And then the little swan devoured even more joyously.

Beside them, Lumi's expression was somewhat peculiar.

Your Highness Louis, go ahead, spoil her.

So it's only a matter of time before this little swan gets pampered.

Only after eating and drinking her fill did the little swan talk about the plans for tomorrow.

"It's the same situation as today, except instead of confronting the enemy, it's exploring an unknown area shrouded by shadow forces."

Louis frowned:

"Why don't you skip it this time?"

The little swan has a physique easily drawn towards the Fallen Shadow Nether Realm.

Louis couldn't guarantee that encountering the shadow plane might not result in this situation.

Moreover, there was one concern he didn't voice.

That was the matter of the black swan.

The black swan had clearly said due to some special situation, entering the Shadow Country would be a road to death for her.

But from the beginning of knowing the black swan, she had said that the body split off from the lazy Body of Time was no different from the original.

Regardless of whether these words are true or false.

Just from the literal meaning, there's an obvious difference between the black swan and the little swan.

What was originally a self-invitation for the black swan might be the same for the little swan.

However, the black swan did not tell him not to let the little swan participate in this event.

This gave Louis concerns.

Your relationship with the black swan, after all, is one of cooperation but not trust.

There's a very critical issue in front of us: the Emperor seems not to approve of the black swan.

As the father of the little swan, if it were just different individuals diverged from the Body of Time, they should all be the Emperor's beloved daughters.

Based on the situations Louis has encountered over this time, he isn't someone who is shortsighted.

Even looking at the relationships between the Emperor and the Church of Glory and Justice, his bottom line is quite flexible and adaptable.

For such a person to negate the black swan, there likely are factors the black swan does not wish to disclose.

If forced to choose between the black swan and the little swan, Louis would choose the little swan first, because he met her first.

If a dangerous exploration needed to be undertaken, he would choose the black swan because she is strong, and Louis does not wish for the little swan to be harmed.

He is just that biased.

If forced to take a side, he would undoubtedly choose the little swan.

Because of this matter, the little swan, who was happily gnawing on steak, pouted high.

Upon returning to the inn to rest, Louis enjoyed a delightful bath.

As a result, when he opened the door to his room, he instinctively drew the Celestial Heart Sword.

Only when the sword was halfway drawn did he realize who was in the room.

Pushing the door open, he looked at the little swan sitting on the windowsill swinging her white feet and said speechlessly:

"Breaking into your brother-in-law's room in the dead of night, isn't that inappropriate?"

The little swan pouted:

"I remember someone directly barging into my room last time, and I wanted to close the window, but they refused to let me."

Louis only felt a twinge in his teeth:

"That was when Great Sin · Greed erupted!"

"Just admit you barged in, didn't you?"

Louis: ...

Alright, this time, it was the little swan's victory.
