Chapter 40: Ritualistic Magic!

“What are your intentions?”
“What? This is just to express my gratitude. Be a little happier.”
“…”
So this was to express her gratitude?
Linley Bart really didn’t understand.
No matter what, compared to thanking him, Linley Bart was more eager for her to apologize.
“Be a little happier!”
“You should express your thoughts as part of etiquette!”
“Uh, thank you?”
Etiquette?
Had there been such an etiquette?
But what should he say now?
It was the first time he’d seen a girl naked.
They could also be considered childhood friends.
This was also not something an ordinary person could easily see.
Then…
“Your body, your body is not bad…?”
“That sucks.”
He was despised by her like trash.
It could be said that there was some sympathy mixed in her voice.
Why was there sympathy?
Did she think that he would never see a girl naked again?
She was the one who asked for an evaluation, yet he was despised once again.
“It’s because you’re destined to be a virgin boy for the rest of your life.”
“The rest of my life? Do you have magic that can predict the future?”
“Can you stay away from me? Being a virgin boy is contagious.”
“How can a woman be infected? Our gender is different!”
No, even men don’t get infected with each other over such things.
“Wait, why did the conversation lead to me staying as a virgin?”
“Is that untrue?”
Elizabeth put on a very puzzled look.
“But what I said just now was indeed biased.”
“If you can understand that, then I would thank the heavens and gods.”
“Don’t sputter, inexperienced virgins are contagious.”
Elizabeth repeated herself and took a step back.
“Alright, I admit it. I’m a virgin.”
This forced Linley Bart to confess his shame.
Elizabeth then nodded in satisfaction.
“Why didn’t you just admit it from the start?”
Why did he have to admit it?
Although up until now, Linley was indeed a virgin.
However, this wasn’t something worth bragging about.
“Don’t worry.”
As she spoke, Elizabeth took out a white shirt from the wardrobe and draped it over her light blue bra.
“Actually, I didn’t even believe half of what you said. I’m afraid I’ve been cheated countless times since I easily believed what others said.”
“…”
“I’m already used to it. To be honest, I’ve almost given up on this physique.”
“You’ve given up?”
“In this strange world where there are all kinds of magic, the gods do not help us easily. Only demons appear because of human desires.”
Elizabeth said with all her unhappiness.
“Perhaps it was due to fate, Linley Bart, that I was caught by you when I had accidentally slipped on the stairs. Although you are considered pretty useless, you are still willing to help me. This is indeed a surprise for me.”
As she spoke.
Elizabeth began to remove the clothes she had just put on.
“You had finally just put it on. Why are you taking it off again?”
“It’s worn backward.”
“Are you a fool?”
“Please don’t say such rude things. What if you hurt my feelings?”
Linley Bart said to himself in his heart, “It would be very strange if someone could even harm you.”
From the looks of it, Elizabeth’s undergarments looked rather fashionable.
“Are you actually trying to show off your proud body to me?”
“I’m not that arrogant. I’m just wearing the wrong clothes.”
“What a high-level mistake.”
“But I’m really not good at wearing clothes.”
“You’re like a kid.”
“It’s not like that. It’s just too heavy for me.”
“Ah?”
It was indeed an oversight.
Without weight, even clothes would be a heavy burden.
“En, I’ve decided.”
Elizabeth said as she slipped a clean dress over her.
“If everything goes smoothly, I’ll treat you to a royal banquet.”
“Where?”
“In my castle.”
“There’s no one in your castle. Please don’t tell me that you want to be the cook.”
“You’re right. Actually, I really like to cook.”
The Sacred Dragon Sorcery Academy was a very disciplined school. At night, lights in most of the buildings were turned off.
Hence, it was already very dark around them, making the room indistinguishable from the outside.
In the basement of Elizabeth’s castle.
Here, no one could disturb them.
Casting ritualistic magic required a long period of time. If one was disturbed in the process, the entire spell would fall apart and fail.
This was the commonality of all ritualistic magic.
Hence, Elizabeth chose her home as the location for the casting of magic.
This was also to prevent Linley Bart from having any bad intentions and tricking her into other unfamiliar places.
Elizabeth was still very cautious.
She was an expert in magic herself and was thus very familiar with the process of how ritualistic magic went.
Even Linley Bart was dressed in the robes of a priest.
His messy hair was also combed neatly, and his appearance was much cleaner.
People relied on clothes to portray a different image of themselves.
“The most important thing about ritualistic magic is the atmosphere. The key lied in the ritual and the preparations.”
Elizabeth said as she pointed at Linley Bart.
“Although you’re the one executing the ritualistic magic, I still have to remind you of this because I feel that you have no experience in performing ritualistic magic.”
Although she was right, it was still awkward for Linley Bart to be exposed.
“Start praying.”
“Pray?”
It was Linley Bart’s idea to let Princess Elizabeth do something.
When the mood was right, he would then use the system’s powers to help Elizabeth remove the curse.
Linley Bart was in fact quite nervous.
Was it because of this solemn atmosphere?
He felt that the atmosphere here had become very strange.
“Linley Bart.”
Elizabeth said suddenly.
“You must protect me well.”
“Of course, I won’t let you do it for nothing.”
“Will you still pay me?”
“Asking for compensation is really superficial. Indeed, your true nature has been exposed by your pathetic words.”
“Then… what will you pay me with?”
