Chapter 348 Narita's Thinking



After thinking about it clearly, Narita felt that this was also very normal. If Hikaru wasn't worried, he didn't have to worry.

"So… what are you going to do with this school?" Narita looked around then asked Shala.

"Hm?! Wait! You are much more beautiful than before, there is even a huge source of magical energy in your body. What's happening?"

Narita suddenly felt extremely surprised at Shala's change. Yesterday, he had just met with Shala to discuss some matters about the mixed-bloods coming to this place and the Players in the temporary settlement.

At that time, Shala was still the same as usual. But today, Shala seemed to have become a different person, no, she had become a completely different person.

She was more beautiful.

The source of magical energy inside her body was also at least 20 times greater than before.

Shala smiled upon hearing that, her face was a little red: "Hm… this is a gift given to me by master."

"Master? Hikaru bestowed this on you?"

"Um.." She nodded: "It seems that master helped me evolve, and I became a completely different person."

"Evolution? Impossible! It's something that doesn't exist in this world." Narita said hastily.

"Why? Haven't I just been evolved by master."

Hearing that, Narita could only stay silent. That's right, Shala's state could only be described with the word 'evolution', he couldn't find any words that matched her current state.

"But…" Narita was a little confused, he explained: "Evolution is something that cannot exist. Think about it, if evolution existed, the distance between races wouldn't exist either."

"There will also be no weak or strong races in this world because everyone has evolved to become stronger."

Shala also didn't want to refute Narita, she just smiled and said: "Then  do you think that master only helped me become stronger."

"But…" Narita had just denied the existence of evolution but he didn't know how to explain Shala's case.

Any information such as her appearance, energy level or other things proves that she had just evolved.

"I… I accept that evolution  exists. Anyway, in ancient documents it was mentioned that someone could evolve their skill or talent to a higher tier."

"However, I have never witnessed such a miracle happen, everything is only described in the scrolls."

"Even if evolution does exist, it can't happen so easily and quickly."

Yes, Narita believed that evolution could help a person completely change his fate, and help him reach new heights.

Therefore, the evolutionary ritual cannot take place in a flash. At the very least, there must be an altar and a Priest and they must carry out a solemn ceremony.

"Hm… I don't know, just now master just put his hand on my head, then I evolved."

Narita: "..."

What the hell is happening here?

Hikaru has the ability to evolve others?

No, maybe it's just a skill that can help one unleash the full potential of the body.

Yes, evolution exists only in ancient texts, perhaps even the ancient sages only fantasized about something like evolution.

After all, everyone has dreams, even the ancient sages. Perhaps they dreamed of an equal world, where everyone had the ability to evolve from weak to strong.

At that time, the world could be at peace, as there would be no need to go to war to compete for resources.

Narita sighed, he looked towards Shala, and he felt that his thoughts were right.

If Hikaru stimulated Shala's full potential, that would mean her body was burning its own life.

Although Shala's lifespan will be greatly reduced, in return she can work more  efficiently.

Perhaps Hikaru wanted to squeeze out Shala's labor, so he used this method.

Haizzz, Shala is so pitiful, she doesn't know she's dying, on the contrary, she thinks that Hikaru helps her heal, helps her evolve.

Although Hikaru's method was a bit cruel, Narita had no intention of interfering.

Narita recognized Shala as a good and kind girl, however, she was just an ordinary person. If there were no problems, Shala could only live till she was 250 years old at most.

However, if  the full potential of her body is stimulated, she might only live to be 40 or 50 years old. But in the meantime, she will shine like a Misty Lamp.

The time she will spend would probably be very short, but that is enough for an ordinary person like Shala to be arrogant.

If he was Hikaru, he would do the same. That was seen as a favor to an ordinary person like Shala.

Even if she dies, she will die in glory, and she will be respected by others. If she continues to be a normal person, she can only die in silence, and no one would know of her existence.

Shala now felt that Narita's gaze was a bit strange. Although Narita had no eyes, but two blue flames.

However, Shala felt that Narita was looking at her with pity. Am I guessing wrong? She thought. 

Shala shook her head and said, "Okay, forget that. We should discuss the elementary curriculum on Runes and other courses."

"Narita, I know you have a lot of knowledge, can you share it with us?"

Narita glanced at Shala: "Huh! My knowledge is of course a lot, it's just whether you can absorb all that knowledge or not."

"Hehehe..." Shala smiled and scratched her head: "Of course I'll try. No matter how long it takes, we can do it."

…

Elsewhere, Hikaru approached Anno's office, he saw her working, the morning sunlight shining through her hair made her more beautiful and lovely.

The image of a girl who looked about 17 years old and was working hard made him smile .

The sight before him made him feel like teasing Anno a little.

"Kiki?!" As soon as Hikaru entered the room, Anno immediately smiled and said, "Did you come to see me?"

"Um… this is your office, who should I meet if I don't see you?"

"Hahaha… I was just joking…" Anno said as she patted the chair.

Hikaru knew the meaning of that action, he approached, Anno gave up the chair for him to sit. Then she sat on his lap.

Not only that, Anno also tried to lean back, and lean on his chest, her hand was even touching his thigh.

"Hm… Anno, you're still working, we shouldn't be doing that."

"Hm? Isn't it okay if we want to 'rest' a bit during working hours?"

Hikaru sweats: "This is not rest, this is sexual harassment. Didn't we have a lot of fun yesterday? You are also the first to surrender."

Hearing that, Anno's face turned red. She pouted and said, "Because you're so strong, I can't stand it."

Suddenly, Anno lowered his voice: "Kiki, I can't satisfy you, do you blame me?"

"Hahaha… What the hell are you talking about? Don't overthink it." Hikaru said as he hugged Anno in his lap, his hand caressing her small face and waist.

"Um… Kiki, what do you want?" Anno groaned, her wet eyes slightly half-closed as if enjoying Hikaru's hands caressing her.

Hikaru kissed Anno's hair: "Um… no, I just wanted to tease you a bit. You were very tired yesterday, and I don't want to continue making you tired."

"Um… thank you." Anno nodded and smiled.

"Okay, don't talk about these things. How were the things we discussed earlier?"

Hearing Hikaru want to talk about work, Anno immediately became more serious, she said: "About the building called 'Supermarket' that you mentioned, Darnag has completed construction according to your design. "

"Food has also been stored in the warehouse, however, apart from food, we don't have anything else to sell."

Hikaru frowned when he heard that, he said, "I already know. You can ask the group of Dwarves, they are very good at crafting. You let them make wooden items like cups, glasses or decorations to complement the supermarket first."

"I will outline the necessary items that the dwarves can make to create a variety of products. Of course, they can also work from home, anyway these are just simple jobs, so there is no need to go to the factory to work."

"The problem is about the materials that can be used to build the territory for them to use: Wood, Stone, Metal, etc.."

Hikaru currently had a lot of materials to build the territory, it would be better for the dwarves to use those materials and turn them into useful items or handicrafts.

Anno nodded at that: "Then… I will leave the distribution of this ingredient to Shala…"

"Ack!" Hikaru heard Anno talking about Shala and he was a bit startled, he asked: "Do you also often give Shala such things?"

Anno nodded: "That's right. These things are also quite simple, and she is the right person for the job. After all, the person closest to the inhabitants of this place is her."

Hearing that, Hikaru sighed, it seems that Shala's statement that she was overloaded with too much work was very accurate.

Not only was she carrying out the tasks he entrusted to her, but she was also carrying out the mandates from others.

He really wanted to reduce the amount of work Shala was taking on as little as possible, but right now, Hikaru couldn't find anyone reliable to replace her.

The other 4 Half-Elf girls all have their own duties to manage special projects.

Amia managed the Administrative Hall.

Anyu and Anio managed the Guild Hall and Aran managed the Quest Hall.

They all have their own tasks, although they are not active at the moment, but they are also trying to get used to this work.

Besides… Those 4 girls also don't communicate with others as well as Shala, that's why it's hard for them to take on Shala's job.

Hikaru sighed, it seems… he really lacks a lot of personnel to help him manage the territory.
