Entry Editing: Loyal Succubus Nun

Hah...

Su Xuan let out a soft sigh. He had finally finished unsealing Ivsha’s Demon Pattern. The Magic was far more troublesome than he had imagined.

Once it began, there was no stopping.

Seven times!

A full seven rituals of Life Magic!

Ah...

He raised his head and looked out the window. The once-bright sky had gradually dimmed, and the moon hung silently among the branches like a luminous pearl, casting its soft glow.

’How mesmerizing...’

"Thank you for your gift, Mr. Su Xuan," Ivsha said gratefully, filled with satisfaction.

The Demon Pattern on her lower abdomen flickered with a faint light, indicating that the first layer had been completely unsealed. However, this was only the first layer.

As for how many layers the Demon Pattern actually had, Su Xuan had no idea. But from the look of its design, there were at least three. This meant he would have to perform the Life Magic ritual at least two more times.

Hiss...

Su Xuan’s hands trembled slightly. He didn’t know if he could handle it again.

This was also the first time he had ever felt a life-threatening danger from a Succubus!

Just then, a notification popped up.

[Your Adventurer Ivsha has successfully unsealed the first layer of her Demon Pattern!]

[All Attributes +50! Magic Power increased by 30%!]

"A 50-point Attribute Amplification to All Attributes? And a 30% increase in Magic Power!?"

Seeing the contents of the notification, Su Xuan broke into a gratified smile.

’Good. My efforts weren’t for nothing.’

"Well then, Mr. Su Xuan, I’ll be heading back to the church now. I wish you sweet dreams."

"Mm."

After Ivsha left, Su Xuan logged out of the game.

He took off his VR headset. The trembling from the game persisted in reality.

He could hardly imagine how he had managed to endure it, although... it had been really pleasant...

"Time to wash up and sleep."

Su Xuan muttered softly to himself. After taking a shower, he immediately fell into a deep sleep.

「The next day.」

When Su Xuan woke up, he still felt mentally and physically exhausted.

The aftereffects from Ivsha were just too intense. It was far more than simple sleep deprivation could explain; his body felt as if it had been completely wrung dry, pushed to its absolute limit.

After a quick wash-up, Su Xuan slung his backpack on and headed to school.

He was so tired that he just slumped over on his desk to rest his eyes, but his mind was filled with images of Ivsha’s seductive figure from last night.

’It was really exhausting, but I still want to...’

When the bell rang to dismiss school, Su Xuan immediately grabbed his backpack and went home.

After a simple meal, he eagerly entered the game world.

When he entered the Guild, he found that Ivsha was already there. She was sitting quietly to the side, her gaze fixed on the puzzle in Rosaline’s hands.

"Hm?"

Su Xuan walked over to them, curious. Normally, Ivsha had absolutely no interest in Rosaline’s puzzles.

As he got closer to the two of them, he realized that Rosaline was about to finish the ’Qingming River Painting’ puzzle!

At her current pace, it would take about another half an hour to complete.

So, Su Xuan unhurriedly began his own business. He opened the game’s shop and listed a Nun’s Talisman on the trade board.

He wasn’t entirely sure of the actual price of a Nun’s Talisman, so he chose to list it at a slightly higher price.

’Fifty Silver Coins for one. I wonder if it’ll sell?’ Su Xuan wondered to himself.

He then listed one Nun’s Talisman on the trade board. A few minutes later, he received a private message.

Super Handsome Guoguo: "Friend, can you lower the price on the Nun’s Talisman? You’re selling a 5-point Luck Value talisman for 50 Silver Coins?"

"Then name your price."

Super Handsome Guoguo: "10 Silver Coins!"

"..."

Su Xuan closed the chat window without hesitation.

’Trying to buy a 5-point Luck Value Nun’s Talisman for just 10 Silver Coins?’

’That’s just daydreaming!’

Just then, Ivsha called out with good news, "Mr. Su Xuan, Rosaline is about to succeed!"

"Oh?"

Su Xuan’s gaze immediately shifted to Rosaline. He saw her steadily place the final puzzle piece. In an instant, the entire puzzle flashed with a dazzling light, as if celebrating the completion of the task.

The next moment, a notification popped up in Su Xuan’s vision.

[Your Adventurer has completed a character development quest!]

[Learned High-tier Swordsmanship — Water Moon!]

"Water Moon?" A flicker of curiosity passed through Su Xuan’s eyes, and he became intensely interested in the new Swordsmanship Rosaline had learned.

Likewise, he was full of anticipation for the new High-tier Magic Ivsha had learned.

"Let’s go to the training room. I want to see your new High-tier Magic and High-tier Swordsmanship," Su Xuan said to the two of them.

"If Mr. Su Xuan wishes to see, then of course." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"As you command."

With a flash of white light, Su Xuan brought them to the Guild’s training room. The training room was a blank space, with only a metal dummy standing in the distance.

"Who’s first?" Su Xuan looked at Ivsha and Rosaline, wondering which of them would demonstrate for him first.

"I’ll go first." Rosaline took a step forward, walked lightly to the metal dummy, and slowly drew the Oath Sword from her waist.

*Hooo...*

Even though a Skeleton couldn’t breathe, Su Xuan could still see wisps of fluorescent light flowing from the corners of Rosaline’s mouth.

"Water Moon!"

As Rosaline shouted, a crescent moon quietly appeared behind her.

Then, the Oath Sword in her hand flowed down like running water, cutting through the air as it slashed toward the metal dummy directly in front of her.

The strike was dreamlike and surreal, as beautiful as a poem or a painting, seeming to freeze time in that single moment.

The metal dummy could not move, could not dodge, and could only silently endure the force of the blow. A crisp, metallic sound erupted in the air, like blue ripples spreading across the surface of water.

When the Sword Qi dissipated, the metal dummy shattered into countless fragments, scattering across the floor like hailstones.

A look of astonishment appeared on Su Xuan’s face.

He knew well that the metal dummy was made of refined iron and was incredibly hard, yet before Rosaline’s Swordsmanship, it was as fragile as a block of tofu.

"Still not hard enough," Rosaline remarked nonchalantly, then returned to Su Xuan’s side.

Hearing this, Su Xuan merely glanced at Rosaline.

’Refined iron isn’t hard enough?’

’Then what is?’

At the same time, a notification popped up in his vision.

[Simulated Combat Power: 500!]

"500 Combat Power?"

Su Xuan raised an eyebrow, mentally calculating. ’A Combat Power of 500... that’s already a top-tier value among Adventurers below level 20.’

’Of course, that’s excluding Mythical Adventurers. After all, from the looks of it, among the hundred thousand Player Guilds, it seems no Mythical Adventurer has appeared yet. At least, not publicly.’

’Besides, this is just the value for the Swordsmanship’s power, not her overall combat power.’

"Well, I guess it’s my turn now~"

Ivsha glided forward a few steps, her movements as light as a gentle breeze, as if she had merged with the world itself. She didn’t walk toward the metal dummy, but stopped at a distance of about twenty meters.

Ivsha clasped her hands together and began to chant a Spell of Magic Power in a low voice.

At first, Su Xuan didn’t feel anything was amiss. A few seconds later, however, his gaze was drawn to the phantom of a Nun hovering in the air above the metal dummy.

It was a phantom formed from condensed Light Magic Power, radiating a brilliant, Golden light.

But what astonished him was that at the center of the Golden phantom flickered a dark purple Fallen Flame!

Before Su Xuan could even begin to understand the mystery of Ivsha’s Magic, suddenly—

BOOM!

A massive explosion!

The Nun phantom exploded in an instant. Earth-shattering Light Magic Power mixed with the dark purple Fallen Fire rippled out in a flash!

The entire training room shook from the aftershock of the explosion, as if it were about to be torn apart.

Su Xuan was stunned speechless by the sight before him. The echo of the explosion rang in his ears, and the metal dummy had vanished without a trace! He had never seen such powerful Magic, nor had he ever felt such a potent Energy Shock.

’Ivsha’s Magic!’

’Is it really this absurd?’

And just then, a number popped up in his vision.

[Simulated Combat Power: 520!]
