NOVPUBLitty was speechless. She understood they may be feeling the same that Roma felt about her on their first encounter.
It was the same humiliation that Roma had experienced after clashing with her at the Fighter Guild.
“I have been watching over those two for a while now… and I can tell that after facing you, they felt as if they were still lacking in something.”
“But! I think I’m not quite there yet!”
“I’m sorry if this offends you. But please understand that the rest of us are more than aware of what frustrations you have felt during the match.”
“I understand.”
“You’ve accepted that so easily.”
Ilysis could not measure how much Litty understood the situation but left it at that.
Ilysis let Litty go, deciding that it might be impossible to make her understand what she really meant in the first place.
“Ah…”
“Fufufu. You were unable to move, weren’t you? If I wanted to, I could do whatever I wanted to you right here and now.”
“I won’t let you do it again!”
“I’m just kidding.”
Litty also could not measure just how strong Ilysis was, and whether she really meant what she said or not.
Litty thought that Ilysis was more of a Physical Monster than she was and should not praise her. To Ilysis however, she simply had the strength and pride of a strong warrior that had developed in a long time until reaching her current status.
Even Ilysis would have been engulfed in jealousy or depression if not for her pride and strength.
“I’m sorry to be so formal about this. But, Litty, there’s one thing about Physical Monsters that makes them unique.”
“What’s that?”
“They tend to be generally lacking in magical power. However, tales of them would be told of having enough power to wipe out everything with a single swing of their sword.”
“With one swing! All of it! Wipe out everything?”
“I don’t know if it’s a myth or the truth. There are various theories that they may originally have been born with magical powers, but they focused their magic power on raising their physical abilities. You probably don’t have much magic power yourself, right?”
“Yes…” 𝑛𝑜𝑣𝑝𝑢𝘣.𝘤𝑜𝘮
The fire magic Maamu had performed in the city of Topaz had surpassed Litty’s.
This was not a matter of skill, but simply a difference in the total amount of magical power. If Litty had been blessed with magical power as well, she might have been even more than just a monster.
“Maybe it’s a small resistance of fate that those who were deemed as monsters were not blessed with magic power as well.”
“I was also interested in the Magician Guild, but I might have to leave that to Kuufa-san and Maamu-san.”
“You are not disappointed about that?”
“Yes, if it is really as Ilysis-san said.”
“I see. I see… you’re so lovable…”
“Myan!”
Myan, covered in bubbles, was lying on the bathroom tile with her belly showing. After that, she flipped her body around and crawled up Litty’s body, wrapping herself around her.
“Myan?!”
“Hahaha! Maybe she’s trying to wash Litty off…”
Litty was somewhat surprised by Ilysis’ ability to grab the quick Myan in an instant. Myan squealed as she wrapped Ilysis like a scrubbing towel and moved around to scrub her body.
Litty immediately understood her intention.
Ilysis said, “Myan, try to do the same thing with this as you are doing now.”
“Myan!”
“Wow! Wha, what’s this?” (Ilysis)
Myan’s towel-clad movements and the feel of the towel rubbing against her body was bliss. The scrubbing that ran through her body was truly a new experience.
“Myan, take care of the rest.”
“Myanmyan!”
“Aah! This is it!”
“Myan!”
At this moment, Ilysis seriously considered summoning the phantom beast Myan. However, there was a risk of immorality attached to this sensation.
Ilysis wondered if this was the right thing to do as a human being.
“Myan!”
“This, this is nice…”
“Ilysis-san, is it time to get it done?”
Litty was worried that Myan had scrubbed her too much. Litty calmly rinsed off the bubbles from Ilysis.
