Witch, Fireball and the Evil God of Steam

Chapter 198: The Road of No Return



"You said that an ice element who looks just like me beat up the electric element and dragged him to the library to see you?"

Lindong squinted his eyes and covered his mouth with a light laugh, a smile that made people feel like a breath of spring.

This time, Ethan observed carefully, it must be a problem with her eye color. When her big cat eyes glared red, even if her expression was smiling, it always appeared very eerie.

All he could say was that his girlfriend naturally had a yandere holy body.

However, observing for a long time, Lindong's personality was somewhat like a cat. As long as you can smooth her fur, she is kind and friendly.

Just like now, real life is not a pre-set dialogue choice love game, so Ethan immediately activated a deck "Sit Down and Talk," which can effectively resolve most unnecessary misunderstandings and conflicts.

He meticulously explained everything he had seen during meditation.

Gentlemen are straightforward, and since there is a clear conscience, there is nothing to hide.

"How could I take out a chainsaw to chase you?"

Lindong had thoroughly understood the definition of yandere, thinking seriously, even if she truly was one, it would probably be the gentle type. She wouldn't saw people or stab people, at most she would kidnap Ethan to a basement where no one could find them, she always felt such a scene was somewhat intriguing, making people restless.

As Ethan's good teacher, she further clarified doubts for her student, "Moreover, theoretically speaking, everyone's meditation environment is independent. Ice element becoming my image means I hold a significant position in your heart."

Lindong beamed with joy.

She could use "meditation" and "element theory knowledge" to explain the wondrous feeling of love.

"The reason she looks so fierce, appearing to want to chase you down, I reckon is largely stemming from your inner protection mechanism."

"Protection mechanism?"

"Even during 'meditation,' you don't wish to do something that betrays me, so the ice element turned into such an image, but in reality, she would not truly harm you."

Lindong suddenly leaned closer to Ethan, gazing at him meaningfully, "But come to think of it, the image and behavior patterns of elemental elves are projections of your subconscious, can be understood as your past experiences... Have you ever been chased by someone with a chainsaw before?"

She always felt Ethan's experiences were quite colorful, even having been chased by someone holding a chainsaw.

Really couldn't fathom what kind of life this guy had been living before coming to Ximu Town, just thinking about it was concerning.

"This is rather complicated to explain."

Ethan found it hard to clearly explain the concept of "computer games" to Lindong, not to mention the internet, this broken place didn't even have TVs and pocket cellphones, how could people in this world possibly understand what being chased by a cyber ghost means, he thought briefly, then explained, "You could think of it as a dreamscape."

"Dreamscape?"

"Much like dreaming, experiencing different lives within your dreams."

In a "dream," you can even be chased by a female ghost wielding a chainsaw.

"Sounds pretty interesting."

"Now I'm going to prepare for the second meditation."

After the first experience, Ethan initially grasped the rules of meditation. If treating it as a game possibly involving horror elements, his task was under the pursuit of Miss Ice Element, to walk into the heart of Wind Element classmate and let her learn to open up to the outside world.

Wind element is the most introverted elemental elf, which is why his proficiency hasn't been rising.

Back to the familiar location, on this warm spring day, Ethan once again appeared in the "Old Sen Magic Academy."

"Looks like we need a more comprehensive plan."

A familiar voice came from beside him.

The electric element with slicked-back hair sat next to him on the lawn; the band-aid on his nose made him look more like a rebellious youth.

It's easy to see he hadn't gotten off lightly from the beating.

Ethan soon figured out the "Electric Brother" persona: rebellious appearance, always seen as a delinquent, but possessed a golden heart. And combining his previous understanding of the electric element, this senior was particularly passionate about romance-related topics.

They seemed to be conducting a review.

In the last incident, he failed to stop Miss Ice Element, allowing her to pursue into the library.

"I need to think of a firmer way to stall her steps, while you should invite the junior to a more discreet location."

"Doing so, wouldn't that prove I have ulterior motives?"

"... What?"

"We should first go find Miss Ice Element!"

Clearly shocked by Ethan's words, the electric element thought it akin to sending sheep to the tiger's mouth, but seeing Ethan's determination, he had to agree with the plan.

Standing at the empty classroom door, the electric element crossed his arms over his chest, leaning back against the wall, "Go in, if things aren't right, just flee, I'll cover your retreat."

This was quite a frigid classroom.

Just by pushing the door open, Ethan felt a chilling atmosphere within.

Bio classroom mannequins, the jars in the cabinets filled with components of unknown creatures, along with tools emitting a cold gleam, it almost gathered all elements found in campus horror themes.

Miss Ice Element was quietly staying at the most noticeable spot in the classroom, looking seemingly in a daze, upon hearing the door open, she instinctively lifted her head, seeing Ethan enter, her face immediately flushed with a hint of redness.
