Who says the Magic Cyber ​​Police can't overthrow the Heavenly Gang?

However, he wasn't without injuries. After seeing Mitu cry, he actually leaned down and said, "She really cried," which was a typical straight man action. Mitu punched him hard in the chest twice.

Her hand seemed to be hurting more at that time...

In short, Mitu cried all the way to the small church, where she squatted in a corner and began to withdraw into herself.

Latis had no idea how to coax her, so she could only brace herself and walk to the church entrance under the condemning gazes of Teacher Yin and the others.

"Wow, is it really that exaggerated..."

He quietly walked to the church entrance, glanced at Mi Tu who was still squatting in the corner drawing circles, and then retreated with a chill running down his spine.

Goddess above, he's terrible at charming girls. It's only because the girls in his family are all so easy to please that he has such an easy life. In reality, his flirting skills are terrible.

To be honest, he initially thought it was just a joke between colleagues. You didn't recognize me at first, so I'll surprise you with a prank later. It's a give-and-take situation.

But it seems... during this process, Mitu was inadvertently influenced by other emotions.

Thinking of this, Radist immediately gasped. Could it be that Mitu had actually developed feelings for him before, and then all of that was ruined by this whole mess?

It feels like you've been kicked out of bed after not properly gauging the level of pleasure while having a girl with you...

Latis hesitated for a moment, then felt he should try to salvage the situation.

He scratched his head hard, sighed, and rummaged through his inventory in the interdimensional gap, trying to find something to apologize, but he couldn't find anything particularly suitable.

You can't just use the bouquets that Arte cultivated to fool someone, can you? Even though he has a lot of bouquets stored up, that would be too much of a jerk move.

But it seems he's done something like this before...

Latis shook his head, about to rummage through his belongings for something worth giving away, when suddenly, a pure white priest's robe appeared before him.

"I've already arranged the Goddess Church's supply depot for you, Lord City Lord." Mitu said coldly, pointing to the corner where she had been crouching.

"In the future, when church members pass through Titania, they can resupply here and communicate with the church headquarters. When necessary, the church will also contact you, Lord of the city, through this method."

"Ah, oh..."

Latis glanced at the goddess statue altar that had been placed in the corner at some unknown time, scratched his head, looked at Mitu whose eyes were red like a rabbit's, and asked in a low voice:

"Um, Lord Mitu... are you alright?"

Mito suddenly raised his eyebrows, stared at Latis, clenched his fist and gritted his teeth. After a moment, he relaxed his fist and snorted, saying:

"Thank you for your concern, Lord. I'm not the kind of girl who holds grudges. I'm just doing my job. I should probably head back to the church now."

"Wait a minute..." Latis quickly stopped her, looking at the faint tear tracks on Mitu's face, he gave a wry smile, scratched his head and said:

"Mitu, I know I was wrong. Actually, it was just that we hadn't seen each other for so long, and I got excited and wanted to play a joke on you to get to know you better. I didn't expect it to turn into such a funny situation... Is there anything you like? I'll find it for you as a gift to make up for it..."

"It's been so long..."

Mito paused, glanced at the sincere expression on Latis's face, hesitated for a moment, and whispered:

"It's nothing serious, I was just a little upset, but I'm much better now... It's okay to apologize."

She shook her head, sighed, and started walking, intending to bypass Latis and head towards the city gate.

However, after taking only two steps, a soft gurgling sound came from her stomach, and she froze, stopping beside Latis.

"Um, how about...?"

Latis coughed lightly and extended the invitation with understanding.

"..."

Mito was silent for a moment, a hint of embarrassment slowly appearing on her face. She turned around hesitantly, looked up at Latis, and whispered:

"Lord Latis, the fried rice I just ate..."

"No problem! Teacher Yin and the others are still keeping the food warm!"

Latis laughed heartily, patted his pectoral muscles repeatedly, and gave a thumbs-up, saying:

"If you like it, I can pack another twenty pounds for you before you go back to church!"

……

……

Tonight's battle turned out to be a win-win situation, much to Latis's surprise.

Surprisingly, the stir-fried chili peppers, which were served as "dessert" after the meal, did not break down anyone's defenses.

Yashutia naturally gave up the challenge with a look of lingering fear. Could it be that something like chili peppers could actually counteract liches? But in any case, not having a challenge meant not having failed.

After eating a chili pepper with complete trust, Ms. Yin blushed and praised it. She said that when she was a child, she was poor and often cooked very strong-flavored foods to warm herself in winter, including chili peppers.

However, after several generations of cultivation by Arte, the chili peppers were no longer as spicy, so Latis was a little unconvinced when he saw how easily Teacher Yin handled it.

As for Mitu, Latis had intended not to provoke her anymore and had no intention of letting her eat him. Unexpectedly, Mitu took the initiative to fight back, which made Latis hesitate for a long time.

Finally, after discovering the slight toxicity in the chili pepper using "Detect Toxicity," Mitu took a bite of the chili pepper while casting a detoxification spell, and surprisingly, it wasn't spicy at all.

What? Spicy food is actually a poison for humans? Latis said he couldn't accept it.

In short, after a pleasant dinner, Latis personally set off to escort Mitu back home. Anyway, he could use his attribute-less dragon form to return to Titania, which, although bald, was much faster than walking.

Perhaps because her mood was gradually improving, before saying goodbye, in addition to confirming the subsequent construction of the teleportation array with Latis, Mito also told him a secret:

Unlocking the functions of a floating island depends not only on the island owner's strength but also on the "spirits" within the island. These "spirits" are somewhat difficult to define; simply put, they are things that can be communicated with and possess spirituality and magical affinity.

For example, magical essence condensates that resemble living creatures, such as lucky rabbits and magical essence birds, are naturally born due to the favorable magical essence environment.

Or they could be elemental spirits such as wood spirits and water spirits that reside in certain magical facilities and special places and can be controlled.

Even the nameless spirits residing in the Church of the Goddess, under its protection, can be included.

However, unlocking the features of the floating islands does not necessarily mean an increase in overall strength. The ranking of the floating islands is still determined by the combat power of each island.

Latis wasn't interested in the so-called ranking system, but if unlocking the floating island's features didn't require ranked battles, he would be very interested in making his island more feature-rich.

"A 'Demon Spirit,' huh... So the Demon Spirits fixed to the island can activate the divine power within the floating island, thereby unlocking more functions."

Latis watched Mito's departing figure and nodded thoughtfully.

"From this perspective, the souls in the 'Corridor of the Dead' should also be considered demonic spirits. As for the others... improving the magical environment will take some time. However, things like wood spirits and water spirits seem to fall within Arte's area of ​​expertise?"

He nodded slightly, planning to have a long phone conversation with Ate later.

Chapter 364 A Long-Awaited Phone Call

The night in Senhai was quiet.

Latis stood atop an ancient tree not far from the city of Titania, looking at the city walls glowing faintly, and a smile appeared on his face.

He had long wanted to imitate Ateliers, standing on a tree branch as if he were one with the tree, but unfortunately he was too heavy. He could break a tree trunk with just a few stomps, let alone stand on a branch.

Now that his bloodline has been activated, he can finally adjust his body to an optimal balance by accurately controlling his power, and stand steadily on the tree like Ate, gazing at his family in the distance.

However, unlike half-elves, Latis now relies purely on her body's spontaneous physical abilities, while half-elves rely on their affinity with the forest. The forest will actively support her according to her will, so even if the branches sway in the strong wind, half-elves can stand firmly.

The thought of Ate standing on the treetop looking at me is just so adorable...

Latis coughed lightly, took two steps back, leaned against the tree trunk, leisurely hummed a folk tune from his hometown, and took out the petite Ate stone sculpture from his bag.

He chuckled and patted the stone sculpture's waist.

……

……

Artemis is talking to the birds with a sense of helplessness.

After Latis went on a long trip, the child completely emptied his own room and moved into Latis's room.

Although Latis had no objections before, Atelius was still worried that the birds would mess up Latis's room, so she was a little conflicted.

After all, the little bird was indeed a well-behaved child, and so dependent on Latis, so she didn't want the little bird to have a restless night's sleep...

"Actually, it's okay to sleep with Sister Arte..."

Looking at the half-elf's troubled expression, the robin pinched her white nightgown somewhat embarrassedly and whispered, "I don't know why, but it seems that after the differentiation, I prefer to stay closer to everyone."

"Eh? It's not entirely impossible..."

Artemis stroked the robin's head and asked curiously, "Is this state related to your ability to differentiate?"

"Um……"

The robin nuzzled the half-elf's hand with its head, pondered for a moment, and then nodded slightly, saying:

“Sister Arte, you know my abilities are related to the mind. I feel... it's like I can draw strength from your love and support for me, and this strength seems to be related to my love for you, hmm…”

"So, little bird, you want to sleep in your big brother's bed because your feelings of affection are so strong?"

Artemis pinched the little bird's cheek with amusement and said:

"You silly child, don't spoil your older brother too much! He might cause trouble!"

"Huh? Really?" The robin blinked, chuckled, buried its head in Ateliers's flat chest, and whispered:

"Could it be that Sister Arte was tricked by Big Brother? Eh? Was it on the way to Lundia... Ugh!"

Artemis blushed and covered the bird's beak, then pinched her cheeks and gently pulled them apart, saying with slight annoyance:

"Naughty child, don't make wild guesses about adults' affairs!"

"Wochu la, wochu la wuwu..." The robin immediately surrendered, begging for mercy with a mournful face.

"Who, who taught you all this!"

Artemis released her grip, gave a soft hum, and said with a slightly flushed face, "Looks like I'll have to tell my brother to refrain from doing anything too intimate with you..."

"No, no—" the robin shook its head repeatedly, pleading pitifully.

"Sister A'te is so mean! She's so close to my older brother, but she won't let me join in..."

"I didn't! Little bird, don't talk nonsense..."

Artemis called out somewhat guiltily. She stood up, intending to comb the little bird's messy hair and put her to bed, when suddenly a tingling sensation came from her side. Her legs went weak, and she cried out in surprise, bracing herself against the edge of the bed.

"Hey! Sister Artemis, are you alright?" The little bird anxiously got out of bed and asked, taking Artemis's arm for support.

"Are your legs numb? Sis, sit on the bed, let me rub them for you!"

"No, it's okay..."
