“Link, I heard that someone threatened you yesterday?”

Not long after Link sat down in the classroom, Jasmine Kidman came unusually early. She sat down next to him and asked excitedly.

“Yes, something like that happened. How did you know?”

Link’s eyes didn’t leave his book, but he nodded casually.

“Aww, don’t worry about how I found out.”

Jasmine hummed flirtatiously, leaning in a bit closer, and staring intently at Link’s face, her eyes hid some nervousness. “So, what do you think? Do you want to keep your distance from me, stay away?”

As she spoke, Jasmine scrunched up her face into an expression of pitiful pleading, pretending to cry. “Boo hoo… I’ve attracted trouble, I’m a bad girl. I caused trouble for Link, he doesn’t want me anymore, boo hoo… What should I do?”

“If you have nothing to do, read more books.”

Link glanced indifferently at the mischievous and attention-seeking Jasmine and said with annoyance, “If you don’t want to read, please don’t disturb me, okay?”

“Oh.”

Jasmine saw that Link, although aloof, did not push her away. She was relieved and stopped fussing, settled down, and began to preview her homework.

Last night when she returned to the dormitory, she chatted with a friend via her personal smart device and heard about this incident. She really had worried that Link would avoid her afterwards.

She was well aware of how much this guy disliked trouble.

But she also knew his steadiness and reliability, albeit somewhat dull, wholeheartedly engrossed in studies, lacking in enthusiasm.

No matter how much she flirted, he remained nonchalant, occasionally letting loose when it may involve personal safety.

Like accompanying her to the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association” picnic yesterday.

With these thoughts, Jasmine began to reflect on herself.

Link had advised her many times to focus more on her studies instead of socializing and entertaining.

She didn’t give it much thought, believing that she was already studying so diligently. What’s wrong with having a little fun and making friends?

In the end, she hasn’t adjusted her mindset in time.

Previously on the Quete Archipelago, she was a rich and leisured aristocratic girl, and the vast majority of nobles were keen on socializing and entertaining.

But now, she is a New Blood who, if not promoted to an Official Wizard in four years, will be ruthlessly exploited. How can she still plan her time and life with a noble’s mindset?

Could a few fair-weather friends really be of much help?

Jasmine remembered some instances of aristocrats smiling to her face but stabbing her in the back. She suddenly shivered, frightened at the thought.

If it weren’t for yesterday’s incident, which made her see the true face of the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association” hidden under the banner of “Helping Each Other,” allowing her timely reflection, would she increasingly neglect the importance of studying and immerse herself in socializing and entertaining in the future?

Like those noblewomen who were initially just trying something new at banquets and dances, but eventually became addicted to the thrill of illicit affairs, falling into the abyss of desire, unable to escape, and difficult to redeem.

Maybe if that situation really happened, Link would have voluntarily distanced himself from her, right?

“Link, thank you.”

A frightened Jasmine whispered softly.

At least for now, this guy, who hates trouble, has not preemptively distanced himself from her because of the trouble that is likely to occur in the future.

Link did not respond, reading his book seriously.

…

In the following days, a huge change came over Jasmine.

Not only did she not participate in events organized by the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association” continuously for several times, she also changed her schedule habits. She got up early every day to preview homework in the classroom.

After having dinner in the evening, she no longer went to various entertainment places in the Academy, but indulged herself in the library with Link.

Roming in the sea of books in the library, Jasmine realized how little she knew and how weak her knowledge was.

The gradual enrichment of her spiritual world gave her the pleasure of studying.

For Link, Jasmine’s change was sudden, but he welcomed it.

At least he no longer had to face a mischievous little girl who was always trying to act cute and attract his attention by occasionally using a naive and flirtatious way.

If it weren’t for the “Mind Closure Technique,” Link thought his integrity would eventually be ruined.

Companioning in learning and progressing together, this was great.

…

In a blink of an eye, another two weeks flew by.

In these two weeks, Link lived as disciplined as before. Apart from the dormitory, canteen, teaching building, and library, he barely went anywhere else.

The only difference is that under his influence, Jasmine also started to live a monotonous but fulfilling life.

Knowledge was constantly accumulated, and meditation was practiced every day.

The spiritual power increased bit by bit, and the magic power contained in the body also increased bit by bit.

Even without practicing the method of refining the body with magic power, the changes of the body are still very noticeable under the joint nourishment of water and wood magic power.

Link’s height took a massive growth spurt, from being almost the same height as Jasmine Kidman, he now stood a head taller than her.

And Jasmine had just entered the puberty of girls. In the environment of the Continent with high element concentration, she was also growing rapidly through consistent help and shared experiences from Link in meditation practices.

The once-immature girl was now 1.65 meters tall.

And Link had shot up to 1.8 meters.

This caused Jasmine to frequently ask, “What on earth have you been eating? Why are you growing so fast, and so tall now?”

Apart from height, the muscles all over Link’s body also became smooth and distinct, full of linearity, and his body shape was more perfect. It could show the beauty of strength, yet was not too bulky or heavy.

Even in the physical fight alone, Link felt he could defeat ten of his former selves back on the Quete Archipelago.

Even the knights of Viscount Holliday were not physically stronger than Link.

Indeed, there was a reason for the saying that the Knight System was the failure of the wizards.

Rivers Francis, the vice-president of the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association” who had secretly been keeping an eye on Link, was upset.

Not only did Jasmine Kidman no longer participate in the activities of the “New Blood Mutual Aid Association”, but she spent all her time with Link Grande, which was a clear sign that she was completely ignoring him, Rivers Francis.

Sometimes, Rivers really wanted to burn Link Grande to death with fire, and vent his desires!

But the omnipresent Intelligent Law Enforcement Puppets in the Academy made Rivers repress his impulse, awaiting an opportunity.

​However, the brawny Erick wasn’t upset in the least.

The more anxious Rivers was, the happier Erick was.
