The two of them simply gazed at each other quietly. Lumine didn't know how to speak after such a long separation.
Meanwhile, Ying's mind was in chaos, unsure how to explain the scene she had just witnessed.
Ahhh, that detestable Yae Miko must have done it on purpose!!!
What should I do, what should I do? Lumine must be furious right now. How can I escape this fate of being ravaged!! (≧﹏≦)
Calm down, host. If you just consider it a reward, then it won't be ravaging~
e
Terrifying!!!!
After a brief exchange, Ying quickly told Lumine about the recent events.
After hearing Ying's words, Lumine frowned and rested her chin in her hand, looking troubled.
"The Electro Archon has targeted you… and she also dug up information about me, didn't she…"
Ying nodded. "Yes, I had a brief encounter with her before, but unfortunately, I couldn't win."
Lumine rolled her eyes at her little sister.
"You little rascal, you've been causing trouble on your own again while I was away, haven't you?"
"Huh?!"
"Wait! That's different! I took that risk this time to find you, you hear me!"
"Besides, isn't Thoma your friend? I was afraid you would be sad if I didn't save him. (*￣з￣)"
Lumine nodded.
"Yes, that is true…"
"But that doesn't change the fact that you didn't listen to me. (^_^)"
Ying:……………
You just want an excuse to lay hands on me, don't you…
Be confident, host. They can lay hands on you without any excuse.
e
"Huh?"
Ying didn't react to the previous statement for a moment.
"Wait, what's going on? What do you mean 'ordinary people can't win'? Lumine, did something happen to you?"
"Hmm? Didn't Yae Miko tell you?"
Lumine asked in confusion and then recounted everything that had happened to her.
Upon learning that it was that scoundrel Scaramouche's doing again, Ying, in her anger, punched the wall next to her.
"Bang!"
Her fist, instinctively covered in Geo energy, punched a hole in the wall, leaving Lumine stunned on the spot.
"How dare he stab you with a knife! That damned Babar, I'll beat him so badly even his mother won't recognize him!!"
Ugh… I feel like the host's words sound a bit familiar…
Lumine's attention wasn't on her words at the moment, but rather she was staring at the Geo energy in Ying's hand with stars in her eyes.
"Um, Ying, how did you do that? Why can't I enhance my strength when I use Geo?"
"Hmm?"
Ying followed Lumine's gaze and only then realized that she had unconsciously used her elemental power.
It seems that multiple battles have gradually turned my body into a reflex action…
Thinking this, Ying waved her little fist and said.
"You mean this?"
"Mhm!"
Lumine's extremely curious gaze made Ying feel a little embarrassed. She scratched her head and patiently began to explain.
"How should I put it? When you use elemental power, it is generated as you channel it. And that generated elemental power is like a piece of clay. Perhaps it's already been shaped initially, but if you don't actively change it, it will remain as that shape of clay.
"If I were to use a similar term, it would be shape-shifting."
Lumine repeated, confused.
"Shape-shifting?"
"That's right."
Ying patted Lumine's arm. After Lumine let go of her, she jumped off the bed, pulled Lumine out of the room, and led her to a flat area.
"Look."
Ying clenched her small fist, creating a standard Geo construct.
"For example, this is the basic ability obtained after acquiring Geo. If you simply create and use the element, it will always look like this. While it's simple and you can do it without learning, its limitations are immediately apparent."
