Chapter 204 Magic and Physical Resistance
Xia Sheng opened his eyes, his eyes bright and sparkling like stars.
His lips curled up uncontrollably, unable to hide his joy.
He has successfully acquired the abilities of the orcs, and now he is even stronger.
However, it doesn't involve acquiring magic or abilities; it's still about strengthening the body, significantly increasing its power.
It's a qualitative leap.
"Xia Sheng, did you succeed?"
Shiina Mahiru immediately released Yukino Yukinoshita's arm, turned to Natsuo's side, and hugged his arm tightly.
Xia Sheng could clearly feel the softness being squeezed.
"Yes, it worked." Xia Sheng nodded with a smile.
"What abilities did you gain?"
"It's not exactly an ability, it's more like a physical enhancement," Xia Sheng replied.
"Then I can't use it anymore?"
"That's true, but your awakened skill isn't strong enough, is it?" Xia Sheng pinched her nose and asked affectionately.
"That's definitely not enough, the restrictions are too great," Shiina Mahiru pouted in dissatisfaction.
"So we just need to cooperate with each other," Xia Sheng comforted him.
"Yes, from now on I can fight alongside you."
"Fighting side by side..." Yukino Yukinoshita murmured.
"Ahem." Natsumi looked at Yukino Yukinoshita and coughed awkwardly twice.
He had overheard their entire conversation.
Yukino Yukinoshita found out about his relationship with Mahiru Shiina, and it was Mahiru Shiina who revealed it herself.
Although it was something that was bound to happen and something that had to be done, I still felt a little guilty.
"Yukino, do you also want to fight alongside me?" Shiina Mahiru asked Yukino Yukinoshita.
"...Let's put that aside for now, Natsuo, what ability of the orcs did you acquire?" Yukino Yukinoshita immediately changed the subject and asked.
"It just strengthened my body. I now have extremely high magic and physical resistance, so I can basically ignore the magical attacks of magic slimes and goblins," Xia Sheng replied truthfully.
"So, the orcs' ability is resistance to magic and physical attacks?" Yukino Yukinoshita guessed.
"Yes." Xia Sheng nodded firmly.
He acquires abilities based on the abilities possessed by the object he devours. Since he acquired resistance from the orc, his own ability is also resistance.
This is why the orcs could ignore his magic and katana attacks.
However, Xia Sheng felt that his resistance was worse than that of the orcs, which might be due to the difference in their physical constitutions.
After all, although he had strengthened his body once or twice, he was still no match for the physical strength of an orc.
That person is almost a giant; how could he possibly compare to their massive limbs and body?
It's very likely related to its tough, dark skin.
Thanks to Shiina Mahiru's awakened technique, which burned his skin to ashes, his attack was able to succeed.
In other words, it doesn't have that layer of skin; it's just a big, strong creature.
But Xia Sheng had no way to get rid of its skin layer.
Shiina Mahiru's awakened skill is still too strong. It's not even magic, and it ignores the orcs' resistance.
Of course, being too powerful naturally comes with limitations; her magical power remained at a value of ten points.
Recovery is slow, and I can only rely on his help.
They needed him, and now he needs them too.
Perhaps the world had already foreseen this?
That's the main reason they came to this place with him.
It's not just about needing numbers; it's also about their awakened abilities that can be perfectly utilized to help him defeat the intruders.
Xia Sheng was looking forward to the awakening skills of the others.
Ahem, it's definitely not with the intention of getting married to them.
"That's great, you've gotten stronger again." Yukino Yukinoshita was happy for Natsuo.
"Mm." Xia Sheng nodded.
He was very happy; no one can suppress the joy of becoming stronger.
"What a pity, you can't share it with me." Shiina Mahiru sighed in disappointment.
"Mahiru, you...: ...I remember you just used Natsuo's body enhancement magic, right?" Yukino Yukinoshita looked at her.
"Oh yeah~ I can do this too."
As Shiina Mahiru spoke, she raised her hand, and magical power gathered in her palm. A gentle breeze blew, and a green blade condensed into shape.
"Is this a wind blade?"
"It was also passed down to me by Natsuo; he can pass on magic to me," Shiina Mahiru explained.
"It's all because of...after that?" Yukino Yukinoshita asked hesitantly.
"Yes." Shiina Mahiru smiled at her and nodded.
Yukino Yukinoshita fell silent again.
She didn't know whether she should be happy or not.
Their previous guess was correct; they needed to get closer to Xia Sheng to gain even greater power.
But going further is not something that can be done just like that.
"Why did you suddenly...?" Yukino Yukinoshita looked at Mahiru Shiina with confusion.
She felt that Shiina Mahiru hadn't been able to make up her mind to do that kind of thing with Natsuo before. What was it that caused their relationship to progress so rapidly?
She quickly remembered that Shiina Mahiru's behavior seemed a bit off earlier.
Did Xia Sheng offer her any advice or guidance?
"What else could it be? I like Natsuo, I love him." Shiina Mahiru confessed frankly.
She spoke very calmly, but the emotions revealed in her eyes were so genuine.
"Love...:::::" Yukino Yukinoshita sensed Mahiru Shiina's feelings.
That makes sense.
With such sincere and passionate feelings, what can't they do?
"Mahiru..." Natsuo looked at her with emotion, his heart overflowing with tenderness.
Shiina Mahiru's generous admission filled him with satisfaction and pride; this was what he had come into this world to pursue.
"Natsuo..." Shiina Mahiru and Natsuo stared at each other, their emotions intense and undisguised.
She's now in a reversed stance; her thoughts and feelings will be expressed most directly. Yukino Yukinoshita silently watched the two get closer, a strange feeling creeping into her heart.
Do they really think she doesn't exist?
"Can we go back and do this kind of thing again?"
"Oh dear~ I'm sorry, I forgot about you." Shiina Mahiru realized what was happening and smiled at her without any embarrassment.
"Ahem, it's time to go back." Xia Sheng reminded them somewhat awkwardly. The three of them's feet began to blur, indicating that only the third layer had appeared.
"Hmph, I'll come find you tomorrow." Yukino Yukinoshita snorted coldly, crossing her arms.
"What? You're already thinking of offering yourself up?" Shiina Mahiru teased.
"I just need to clarify a few things," Yukino Yukinoshita explained irritably.
"The process and details?" Shiina Mahiru continued to tease.
I can't be bothered with you.
"You're shy? See you tomorrow then. Do you want me to make you breakfast?"
"Can."
When Xia Sheng regained consciousness, he could only smell the fragrance in his nose. When he opened his eyes, he could not see anything.
I'm having some difficulty breathing.
He then realized that he was being held tightly by Yuki Suoh.
Without hesitation, he pushed her away and breathed in the fresh air.
"Um... Cousin, you're back~" Suoh Yuki was woken up by Natsuo's movements.
Wasn't I there last night?
"Yeah, it just disappeared, leaving me all alone in this empty bed," Suoh Yuki replied groggily, rubbing her eyes.
"What do you mean by being left alone in an empty bed... You're like this? Aren't you ashamed?"
"Wasn't it all caused by my cousin?" Suoh Yuki was indeed not ashamed and retorted frankly.
"Okay, okay, I'll help you put it on. Get up now."
"Hmm... Cousin is getting more and more hypocritical." Suoh Yuki pouted, her cheeks flushed.
"I'm trying to help you, okay?" Xia Sheng said seriously, flexing his fingers.
"Hmm... what kind of help do you need?"
"Don't you want to become more mature? This is a good way to do it."
"Hmm...: My cousin is just talking nonsense."
