The Villainous Noblewoman Is About to Be Forced into Love, Isn’t This Wrong? Chapter 267: To Have a Good Talk

“Huh? My ability is similar to this demon’s core?”

Is that sothing that can be discussed so casually? If this were the past, I would have been arrested.

“Yes. Because your ability, Princess Liana, is similar to a magic crystal, but it can do many things that a magic crystal cannot. As long as your mana is strong enough, you can store a similar amount of mana. And the magic core has this structure right now,” Minoga said.

Liana generated a gem. Holding her own gem in one hand and the magic core in the other, their appearance was indeed very similar.

But that was also normal. After all, her ability generated gems, which were very common in this world.

Besides, one could clearly feel the fluctuation of mana on the gem she generated, but the magic core had none. If Minoga hadn’t brought it up, Liana would have thought it was just an ordinary stone.

It wasn’t wrong for Minoga to say it was sowhat similar to her ability, but it could also be said to be sowhat similar to a magic stone. After all, her ability was also a type of magic stone.

Could it be... that magic stones were inspired by magic cores?

But the birth of magic stones was a matter of who knows how many years ago. There weren’t even corresponding records in the books.

“Both magic stones and my ability have an obvious drawback, which is that they both have an upper limit and cannot store mana indefinitely,” Liana said, pausing.

Her own ability was indeed like a demon’s. As long as she was strong enough, she could completely absorb others’ magic.

And in the records, nothing was really said about this. After all, no one would keep using magic on a demon who would absorb it, they’d be treated as a fool.

But looking at it now, it wasn’t impossible?

However, the mana consumption for that would surely be an impractical amount. Not to ntion that the demons could use that mana to fuel their spells.

Such a small thing in her hand was actually the entire mana of an Executor. Even if Liana were squeezed dry now, she couldn’t achieve that level.

At her current level of Senior Archmage, the limit of what she could store was equivalent to the mana of a High Mage.

And the core before her truly had executor-level mana.

If calculated according to her own ratio, she would have to be at least a Judge to have the strength to condense such an executor-level core.

Not to ntion, the number of Judges on the demon side would only be more, not less, than on the human side. Did that an there was an existence even higher up among the demons...

Liana didn’t dare to think any further. She was afraid of damaging her own confidence.

But if there really was such an existence, they wouldn’t have been sealed so many tis. And this ti, they had been sealed for hundreds, even thousands of years.

That proved that there was sothing unique about this magic core. If she could unlock this secret, would she also have the power to devour magic at will like a demon?

“What’s wrong?” philia looked at Liana’s slightly trembling hand.

Liana took a deep breath. “There are indeed so similarities to my own. If I can understand its structure clearly, it might improve my own abilities.”

“It seems I’ve finally done sothing right,” Erinna said with a laugh.

This way, I should have helped Sister Liana, right?

“And have you done sothing wrong?” Liana said grumpily. “Stop talking about yourself like that, okay?”

Erinna opened her mouth. Although she didn’t say it out loud, Liana could still tell from her lip-reading what she had said.

That day, the dark room, the tying up, the applying of dicine.

“Liana, what’s wrong?” philia noticed that Liana’s face was a little red.

“It’s nothing, just a little too excited.”

This girl, what is she saying at a ti like this!

But it also seed to be true. It seed the only ti Erinna had done sothing bad was on that matter, when she had really tornted her.

“Headmaster Ibett seems to know a lot about the demon race. And he also asked to et with you. Why don’t you find so ti to ask him? Maybe he can solve your doubts,” philia said.

Liana had originally planned to go find him later, but now it seed she had to go. Besides, she also had to make a trip to the Elf Forest. She might as well ask this old fellow if he had any good things she could get, which would make her trip to the Elf Forest a little more convenient.

After roughly finishing their discussion for the day, everyone left with a tacit understanding.

philia patted Liana on the shoulder, # Nоvеlight # letting her have a good talk with Erinna.

“It seems everyone is taking care of us,” Erinna said.

“Why didn’t you let Sybil heal your hand?” Liana looked at the wound on Erinna’s hand, the one left from blocking the dark arrow for her.

“I think it’s fine,” Erinna said, raising her hand. “What’s the point of being so perfect? I don’t care about others’ gazes, nor will I look for anyone else. My gaze is always the sa. Will Sister Liana think I’m ugly because of the scar on my hand?”

“Of course not,” Liana said imdiately.

“Then that’s enough. As long as you don’t mind, Sister Liana, then there’s no need to heal it,” Erinna said with a laugh.

“It’s not good-looking at all. No, it’s very ugly,” Liana said, changing her tune.

“Okay, then I’ll tell Mother later that you think I’m too ugly,” Erinna said.

“Eh? You!” Liana had never expected such words to co out of Erinna’s mouth.

“Hahaha.” Erinna laughed happily.

Liana, on the other hand, pouted, a little frustrated. “Really, thank you very much.”

“It is a younger sister’s privilege to be doted on by her older sister. But a younger sister can’t always hide behind her older sister. She also has the right to protect her older sister, doesn’t she?” Erinna didn’t want to use this incident to emotionally blackmail Liana.

She had to conquer Liana with her own strength and charisma.

“To be honest, at that ti, I didn’t have ti to react to what it was. My body’s instinct made do it. When I realized it was a demon’s attack, I also felt an unprecedented fear,” Erinna said.

“Fear? I couldn’t see any sign of that from you at the ti,” Liana said, propping her face on her hands and looking at Erinna.

At that ti, in order to not make her worry, Erinna had appeared very calm.

“I’ve also forgotten how I did it at that ti. My body suddenly reacted so quickly, faster than my brain could think. By the ti my brain reacted, my palm was already feeling a sharp pain. When I realized what it was, I quickly used the sacred magic I had recently learned. I was very clear-headed. Sacred magic was effective. But the sacred magic you used, Sister Liana, should have been enough, right?” Erinna said.

“Enough?” The gem gunlance appeared in Liana’s hand. Her sacred magic bullets were completely exhausted. At that ti, she hadn’t had ti to think and had fired them all at Erinna. “I’ll have to get so more from philia.”

“I wonder if my magic can help you, Sister Liana?” Erinna asked.

She could see that the bullets Liana fired contained all sorts of magic, most of which ca from others. Perhaps her slash magic could help Liana?

Liana shook her head. Erinna’s magic was not suitable for hers. Her ability worked best with enhancent-type magic.

Mainly because enhancent-type magic was relatively gentle. Offensive magic was too violent and prone to accidents.

“I see.”

A bit of a pity. I can’t help her in this regard.

The two of them chatted for a while, but during this ti, Erinna didn’t ntion anything about their previous agreent of favorability rating.

Today’s events could certainly raise her favorability a great deal. Erinna should be very concerned about this. But why didn’t she say anything?

“Today, you get fifty points.” Liana decided to bring it up herself.

Erinna shook her head. “No need, Sister Liana. Let’s just start from zero.”

“Why? Didn’t we agree that you would prove it with your actions?” Liana was taken aback.

Could it be that my charm has disappeared for her? Does she not like anymore?

“This was just a very ordinary thing. And to use this kind of thing to gain your favor feels very cunning and unfair to you,” Erinna said. “What’s more, I didn’t block that attack for you because of this matter. Even if this hadn’t happened, I would have still done it.”

Erinna...

If Liana could have given fifty points at the beginning, then after Erinna said this, she could give eighty.

But to be honest, Liana was indeed very moved. It felt like being protected and cared for. But she didn’t feel that heart-pounding, falling-in-love feeling.

Perhaps it was because of their relationship...

Although the two of them had no blood relation, Liana would always subconsciously think of this. This... was very unfair to Erinna.

“How about this? Didn’t you say there was a ti limit, Sister Liana? I also know that you definitely see as a younger sister right now. So, just give a little more ti, how about it?” Erinna proposed.

“...Alright.” Liana nodded. She did indeed need a little more ti to see Erinna as a woman.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have any feelings of love at all. If what had happened today had happened with Loraviel from the beginning, she would have fallen in love with her without hesitation.

But Erinna’s actions today had also touched Liana’s heart a little. To say she felt nothing? That was also impossible.
