Chapter 39 The music continues, the dance continues.
Lin Ye, who had struggled to advance to the rank of formal mage, suddenly broke through to a higher level so easily, leaving him with a feeling of being in another world.
Back in the magical world, if he hadn't broken through in time, he would have been turned into consumables.
Unexpectedly, upon arriving in this relatively safe Pokémon-filled place, he broke through the bottleneck that had been hindering him for so long in just a few days.
The only pity is that he has now left the magical world. Although he can continue to increase his total magical power through meditation, he can no longer learn those profound necromancy spells.
Originally, given his status as a formal mage, if he were in the magical world, the Death Whisper Academy would surely have opened up a large number of necromancy manuals to him, at which point his combat power would have increased rapidly.
But thinking about it carefully, I don't feel there's anything to regret!
After all, even a formal mage in that world isn't invincible, and being surrounded by a bunch of lunatics, they might one day be turned into a necromancer specimen by some lich master.
In contrast, in this world, although it is difficult for humans to learn any new necromancy, Pokémon can provide a wider variety of combat methods.
Moreover, as long as he persists in cultivating necromancy, constantly breaks through the total amount of magic power, and continues to strive for the realms of Grand Mage and Archmage.
Therefore, even if he still cannot use powerful attack magic, his lifespan can be as long as that of the top experts in the magic world.
Moreover, he'll have a ghost Pokémon by his side to keep him company all the time, so what more could he ask for?
"By the way, since the Dream Demon is so useful, let's not waste it. Let's cast a Soul Chasing spell on it!"
Lin Ye acted immediately, marking the Dream Demon with a Soul-Chasing Technique!
In this way, whenever the two come within a certain range, their presence will be sensed.
To Lin Ye, the dream demon, which could absorb and transform fear into energy, was simply a giant, ghostly milk tank.
"Dream Demon, you'd better scare people properly from now on and accumulate more fear energy. Don't let my good intentions go to waste," Lin Ye thought to himself.
The poor dream demon, completely unaware that it had been marked, was still clueless that Lin Ye was treating it as a long-term babysitter.
Lin Ye flew out of the mountain valley on his sword, his hands behind his back, and saw that the east was turning white. The land and sea of Hoenn were about to be bathed in the light and heat scattered by Solgareo shaking his mane.
"Oh dear, I didn't expect this breakthrough to take so long, it actually took a whole night. But I don't feel tired at all, and I feel more energetic than I usually do after a good night's sleep."
This is the benefit of meditation; it can replace sleep in daily life, not to mention that Lin Ye has just completed a major breakthrough, so he is naturally even more energetic at this moment.
"Let's go back first, Sword Sheath! Although we can explore again during the day, cultivation should be balanced. There's no need to rush. Besides, the Pumpkin Spirit and the others need time to gather information."
"Whoosh~~"
The single sword sheath pierced the air, carrying Lin Ye's figure, which at this moment resembled a sword immortal, and merged with the bright morning sun in the east.
…………
Back in his new villa, Lin Ye sprawled comfortably on the sofa in the living room, which doubled as a bed, and stretched out with a big yawn, looking somewhat like a Snorlax sunbathing after a good meal.
"Oh dear, I didn't run into them again. Jingjing and the new tenant have both gone out. As their roommate, I feel a bit rude!"
However, in order to become stronger as soon as possible and avenge the Sword Sheath and the Snow Fairy, this is the only way!
"Gurgle~"
"Eee~~"
Without another word, the two of them leaped out of the shadows, one on the left and one on the right. Zoroya pounced and landed precisely in Lin Ye's arms, its four paws outstretched like a fluffy blanket covering his stomach.
It squinted its eyes, purred contentedly, and swished its tail, looking exactly like a cat that had just been petted.
The Snow Fairy floated to Lin Ye's side and gently brushed his cheek with her long sleeve. The snowflakes formed from her breath fell from the air and landed on Lin Ye's face, feeling cool and quite comfortable.
Lin Ye was stroking Zoroa with his left hand and hugging Snow Fairy with his right, looking completely blissful.
"Ah, this feels so good! This is the life a human being should live!"
"Brother Lin, you are mistaken!"
As the stern voice rang out, the scabbard of the single sword snapped out of the shadows with a "snap," very quickly!
Its blade stood straight, suspended in mid-air, looking down at Lin Ye lying on the sofa. Its expression was like that of an old minister witnessing a tyrannical ruler's debauchery.
"Brother Lin, a virtuous and ambitious person like you should prioritize the revival of the empire and the establishment of unparalleled industry!"
How can you be so indulgent in pleasure, seeking comfort and neglecting your ambitions?!
"Oh dear, how could I have forgotten about that!"
Seeing Lin Ye lounging comfortably on the sofa, Du Jianqiao was heartbroken and offered him direct advice:
"Brother Lin, something's not right with you right now. Not only is there a vixen by your side, but you also have a fox spirit lying in your arms."
"Oh no, oh no! This is the standard combination of a foolish and incompetent ruler who brings about the downfall of his kingdom. Brother Lin, be careful not to enjoy yourself halfway through your great undertaking!"
Soroya immediately bristled, jumping out of Lin Ye's arms and baring his teeth at the single-edged sword sheath:
"Who are you calling a vixen? Even if you are, you're still better than this broken sword of yours! If your master hadn't brought you out, you'd probably be rusted to pieces by now."
"Nonsense! I am the emperor's blade. My useful body is meant to be used in the future to rebuild the empire. Why would I allow myself to rust?"
But just as Dujianshe had finished speaking passionately, he suddenly shivered, felt a chill run through his body, and turned around to find that the Snow Fairy had appeared beside him at some point!
Steel is normally able to resist ice, let alone mere cold air.
However, the Snow Fairy had just completed her breakthrough and was now superior in level, thus increasing the penetrating power of her cold energy.
The snow fairy reached out her slender hand and grabbed the hilt of the single-edged sword, then said with a cold laugh:
"General, you must have heard the story of that infamous concubine from the fallen kingdom of Fengyuan who danced with a sword. Since you call me a demoness, I must demonstrate my skills. Please lend me your sword—no, I should say, lend it to you!"
As she spoke, the Snow Fairy swung up her frozen sword sheath and began to perform a fairy sword dance for Lin Ye, her moves quite impressive.
The "little fox spirit" laughed loudly, then transformed into the appearance of Qiao Yijing and ran to turn on the surround sound system in the living room to accompany the snow fairy's dance.
"Witch, you only broke through before me, how dare you mock me like this!"
Brother Lin, please stop its rude behavior immediately!
Lin Ye hugged Soroya, who had transformed into Qiao Yijing, and then leaned back on the sofa:
"I've been fighting ghosts all night, can't I just relax a bit, keep the music playing and keep dancing..."
