Chapter 183: Lin Lin’s Gaze Lifts
If Safir could appear here, he would probably feel a little comforted, because Lin Lin had indeed mastered the flying spell.
Practice is the best teacher. When you jump from the air and no dragon is there to catch you, you might discover an extraordinary potential as a wizard.
The moment Lin Lin escaped the room, white energy burst from the magic wand in her hand.
Lin Lin could finally sit on her magic wand and slowly fly like the magical girl she had watched as a child, while noises of things shattering echoed from the room behind her.
When Lin Lin looked back, she could only see thick black fog.
The magic wand felt a bit unsteady, but Lin Lin still floated in the air, like riding on waves, and she noticed the black fog slowly clearing, returning the room to its normal appearance.
The burning sensation in her neck completely disappeared, and when Lin Lin touched the spot of the contract, it felt even cooler than usual.
Before this, although Lin Lin knew that they had made a contract related to their souls, it never felt real to her.
As a person raised in modern society, Lin Lin thought it was enough to feel comfortable while alive; what happened to her soul after death was not something she considered.
But when Lin Lin first truly felt the mark weakening, she began to care.
Just like a rope that pulls on you without drawing attention, one day Lin Lin suddenly realized that this rope might break, and she couldn’t help but stare at it.
In the days that followed, Lin Lin was very busy. She wondered if it had something to do with the destruction of the God of Darkness’s room, as things in the demon realm got worse, and even Demon King Castle became dangerous.
The never-ending heavy rain, the continuous volcanic eruptions, the occasional earthquakes, and the monsters fighting for shelter or resources.
Lin Lin truly supported the operation of Demon King Castle. She had always complained that Safir, her teacher, managed too much. Now, she started to admire how Safir could handle many things at once with his brilliant mind.
Dealing with unexpected situations, adjusting strategies correctly, and even managing the arguments among the monsters; Lin Lin began to miss Safir’s cold face that made everyone quiet.
Lin Lin rarely complained now, or maybe she was just too busy, feeling that even complaining took too much effort. Each day, she only thought about whether she could do a little better than yesterday.
Knowing the end of the story gave her a bit of comfort.
From the very beginning, when the monsters called her "Demon King" as a way to escape and pulled Safir into work, Lin Lin had now naturally accepted the title, solved problems, and become the true "center" of Demon King Castle.
…
Lin Lin noticed the rain was slowly stopping after she heard the noisy sounds outside.
Although the monsters would also rest near the walls outside Demon King Castle, usually a group of them would not gather there for safety reasons.
When Lin Lin stepped outside with her umbrella, the monsters excitedly gathered around her, pointing to a faint white line in the distant sky.
It was not very obvious; in fact, that white line looked a bit gray, but it sliced through the darkness like a thin blade, bringing other colors to the pitch-black sky.
Some baby monsters had never seen daylight in their lives and found that faint white line fascinating.
Lin Lin urged the monsters to return to a safe place and to busy themselves with their own tasks.
Then she looked up at the Red Moon in the sky and knew that Safir and the others’ plan was working.
–
"The black mist has cleared," announced the monsters that had gone outside, causing many creatures inside Demon King Castle to want to go out and see for themselves.
At first, it was an excuse for work to apply to Lin Lin, but later, one person would go out with three or five others, and by the end, they had started sneaking out.
Lin Lin turned a blind eye, pretending not to see their poor lies.
The rain had stopped, the flood had receded, and lava flowed on the ground, breaking into mineral-rich soil, which was absorbed by the seeds of the demon realm after many trials.
Lin Lin grew a magical plant on her balcony; although she couldn’t tell if it was a flower or grass, it grew quickly, as if worried that the good weather wouldn’t last long.
Suddenly one day, Lin Lin, who was sleeping in her bedroom, was awakened by a warm light.
Lin Lin opened her eyes to see the dark room, with light shining through the gap in the curtains that had never been fully drawn, casting a white shadow on her blanket.
Lin Lin got up, her long hair falling over her shoulders, and sat quietly on the bed for a moment before realizing it wasn’t a dream.
She habitually touched the contract mark on one side of her neck but still felt nothing special.
Lin Lin got out of bed, pulled back the curtains, and opened the window.
Many creatures in the demon realm prefer the shade, and when the sun is so bright, some of them are too scared to come out.
The Red Moon, which had been circling in the sky for a long time, has disappeared, and in its place is the familiar golden sun that Lin Lin knows well.
After soaking in the sunlight for a while, Lin Lin casually tied her messy long hair into a low ponytail.
Suddenly, the good view from above allowed her to see several figures in the distance.
Not only did Lin Lin notice, but a few scattered creatures also spotted them, gathering around the three figures.
It’s Safir and the others!
Blood rushed to Lin Lin’s brain, and she couldn’t help but smile. She hurriedly put on a loose light yellow shirt over her nightgown and tightly gripped her magic wand with one hand.
In the crowd, Safir, who had the best view, was the first to see Lin Lin.
The Sapphire Dragon looked a bit tired, but seeing Lin Lin standing on the balcony, swaying and holding her magic wand, made its eyes widen in surprise.
What is she doing! Is she about to jump off the building? Safir couldn’t believe it.
Has she lost her mind?
Safir is watching her! Lin Lin excitedly waves to Safir, then shows her teacher, Sapphire Dragon, the flying spell she has been practicing quite well.
The moment Lin Lin leaps from the balcony, Sapphire Dragon reaches out, and a streak of blue-green wind rushes past Lin Lin.
Oh no! There’s wind! Lin Lin holds tightly to her magic wand to keep it steady.
Then, Lin Lin could fly freely in the air like a free bird.
Even though it was flying low.
The monsters cleared a path for His Majesty the Demon King at Demon King Castle, allowing Lin Lin to fly right in front of Safir, showcasing her extraordinary landing skills.
"Welcome back!" Lin Lin greets them, looking for Small Coal Ball.
Her deep brown eyes looked around everywhere, finally landing behind Safir. Safir stepped aside, surprising the person who had been standing behind him.
It was a boy about the same height as Lin Lin, wrapped in a black robe that covered his thin body, and his long, curly black hair flowed down like fine silk.
"You…?" Lin Lin let out a single syllable, her gaze fixed on the face of the boy.
The boy’s wet, clear purple eyes looked at her with a bit of confusion, his long, curled eyelashes fluttering slightly. After they exchanged glances, he awkwardly turned away from Lin Lin’s gaze, and the black lashes cast a faint shadow on his fair skin.
Lin Lin smelled a sweet, rich scent in the air, cold yet fragrant.
Lin Lin’s gaze lingered on the boy’s face, unable to look away, as if his purple eyes had a magical pull that kept her staring.
He was very beautiful, like a doll.
Lin Lin’s eyes moved up and saw curled horns that looked like those of a sheep.
