Hate me, Miss Witch

Chapter 19 The big one is coming?
  Along the shoreline of the Grand Sea.

Xia Ya looked at the backs of the crowd in the distance who were surrounding Sylvia nervously and moving away towards the Grand Duke's mansion, and couldn't help but stretch.

In his mind, lines of blue text messages were flying rapidly.

[Novice mission phase three: Make the favorability of Silvia, the daughter of the Grand Duke, exceed 30 points. The mission goal has been achieved]

[Current mission target favorability: 52/30 (trust)]

[Task rewards have been settled]

[Based on the overall performance of the host in this mission stage, the following mission rewards will be issued: 100500 free experience points, skill seed*3]

"No matter what, it's finally done."

"It's not in vain that I have prepared for this stage of the task for so long and put so much effort into it."

Xia Ya rubbed his eyebrows and threw the two thick books "How to Get Along with the Opposite Sex (Elementary)" and "Introduction to Psychology" into the shining space pocket.

There is no way, either before or after time travel, he has never had the experience of actively pursuing the opposite sex. He is a completely passive otaku.

It's really too much for him to take the initiative to attack female characters.

You can only imitate cats and draw tigers, and practice what you learn on paper.

Fortunately, Xia Ya's communication skills, which she had honed through temporary tutoring, did not show any signs of timidity, and her performance on the spot was perfect.

Of course, those conversations between him and Sylvia were prepared in advance, but they were indeed what he had in mind.

From the perspective of a 21st century traveler, atrocities such as witch hunting were originally despised by Char.

His eyes scanned the lines of system prompts, reading the information.

According to the description given on the system panel, the favorability level is 30 points, which is the category of "acquaintance".

If this is the goal, then you only need to find opportunities to have more contact with Sylvia in the Duke's mansion, and spend a few more days to become familiar with her, and you can achieve your goal.

However, if this is really done, both the task evaluation and the final task reward will only be the lowest value.

It is precisely because of this that Char, even at the risk of facing the pollution at dusk, planned such an encounter at Grant Seaside on a winter night, and successfully raised Sylvia's favorability to the "trust" stage.

This is a level that cannot be reached no matter how many times you brush your face to make it familiar.

If the favorability level is more than ten points higher and reaches the level of a confidant, then even a request for negative distance contact will have to be hesitated before politely refused.

And the rewards issued by the system in the end did not disappoint Xia Ya.

Needless to say, one hundred thousand free experience points are enough to upgrade several high-level skills to "perfect" proficiency and still have a surplus.

At this moment, it can just fill in the proficiency gaps in Shiny Shin’s other skills.

In addition, at this moment, Xiaya is not too far away from opening up the third soul contract. The addition of these 100,000 free experience points can be said to be a timely blessing.

However, compared to the foreseeable massive amount of free experience points.

Another item in the mission reward - "Skill Seed*3" just surprised Char even more.

The function of skill seeds is not to improve the proficiency of pet beasts' skills.

Instead, let the pet beast acquire brand new skills.

Not only can you learn skills across racial restrictions.

Even after enough deduction and practice, it is possible to even create a brand new skill.

Char had only obtained a little skill seed before, and used this to let Gin learn "Tsukuyomi" that built the foundation of its ability system.

Gaining three points at once this time is an unexpected surprise.

"With three points of skill seeds, Yin's attack skills can also be improved."

"After all, we already have "Tsukuyomi", so it would be a pity not to have "Amaterasu" for matching. "

"In addition, there are many practical skills waiting to be learned in the Shining Space Department..."

"However, no matter how they make up for their shortcomings, Shining and Silver are still pet beasts that mainly focus on assistance and control."

"Think about it this way...for my third soul contract, I should choose a pet with sufficient front-on combat capabilities."

As his thoughts flickered, Xia Ya noticed the new reminder that emerged in his mind. [Novice mission status has been updated]

[Mission Goal 4: Complete the coming-of-age ceremony for the Grand Duke Cangting’s family, and become a core member of the family through the coming-of-age ceremony, and truly join Elder Norton’s plan. 】

[Reverberations of History——The first node of "Cangting Ancient Kingdom" has been reached]

[The current historical node is locked, the host is asked to choose to exit the historical reverberation or continue to stay to complete the mission goal]

"Sure enough, it's pretty much what I expected."

"With Sylvia losing control many times, Norton, that old Bidden boy, may soon be unable to sit still."

Looking at the information on the system panel, Xia Ya nodded slightly.

"Also, it should be the save point of the "Historical Reverberation". "

After staying in the "Reverberation of History" for a few days, Xia Ya also had a general understanding of the secret realm that no one knew about, the Reverberation of History.

It's not like he initially guessed, the photos can only be seen but not touched...

Every character who appears in this historical reverberation is clearly the same as a real living being.

Compared to the so-called "reflection in the lake".

Here, it is more like a real world lost in the long river of history.

Of course, this is just Xia Ya's guess and has yet to be verified.

Xia Ya did not hesitate and directly chose to leave the reverberation of history.

He has received the message from Shining through the soul contract. This time and space has already rejected it and cannot stay for too long.

Moreover, the little golden monkeys also sensed that the remnants of history had left a mark on them.

If you want to enter again later, you don't need to be in the Cangting ruins, but you can enter it no matter where you are.

On the other hand, with Char's character, he didn't want to challenge the fourth phase of the mission directly and recklessly.

He now needs time to digest the gains from this mission and then turn them into his own things.

In this extraordinary world, if you want to live longer, your own strength is the only real reliance.

……

Accompanied by a twisted feeling of dizziness, Char woke up in the ruins.

He looked at the mechanical clock that had been placed beside him. The scale of the clock showed that only more than an hour had passed since he entered.

There is no doubt that the reverberations of history and the present are two completely independent time and spaces.

Char didn't stay too long, but directly left the Pale Hills with the help of Shining's "Flash".

He has not forgotten that when the remnants of history here were revived, there were roars and earthquakes, making it very noisy.

I'm afraid it won't be long before strong men from the nearby empire's military come here to investigate.

Although his use of political donations to obtain archaeological permission in the Gray and White Hills was undoubtedly traceable to those powerful officials, Xiaya did not want to come into contact with official personnel in such an unprepared situation.

An hour later, Char had already boarded the steam train leaving Resa City and bound for the capital of the empire.

He saw the jet-black dragon speeding past in the distant sky.

Also, the slender figure standing on top of the black dragon.

"The Royal Breeding Institute's exclusive black-scaled dragon. Judging from its size, it should have exceeded the limits of a king."

"A title-level beast master of the imperial military?"

Xia raised her eyebrows.

The historical reverberations of the ancient Cangting Kingdom.

It seems that some big shots have been provoked.
