Chapter 612: Are you Bryan? (2/2)

However moved he was, though, Han Shuo was alarmed. He knew that as he had only recently entered the Nine Changes realm, his mastery of some of the changes was not refined enough. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy for Lisa to recognize him.

“What’s wrong with your face anyway? It doesn’t look good.” When Lisa saw that Han Shuo wasn’t replying, she looked panicked and interrogated him, “Were you disfigured by your enemy?”

Han Shuo laughed and shook his head. Then, as Lisa attentively watched, the skin on Han Shuo’s face started to undulate like water ripples. Before Lisa could even gasp, Han Shuo had restored his original look.

“Like magic!” Lisa finally cried out in surprise. She could not be more enthralled.

If you aren’t reading this on radianttranslations dot com, chances are someone are stealing my work that I spent hours to make. I’d appreciate if you report it to me on radiant and stop reading on the pirate website. Thanks. – Hedonist.

Han Shuo smiled, glanced at Lisa, who had now turned into a fine lady, and clasped her small hands. With one pulsation of his consciousness, he gained a clear measurement of Lisa’s mental strength. He complimented her in a soft voice, “Not bad, didn’t expect for you to have already advanced to be an archmage now! This kind of progress is really astonishing!”

“This is nothing. Compared to Teacher Fanny and your women, I’m still far behind!” Lisa softly giggled and couldn’t help her modesty. She indeed had became much more mature.

“They have received aid from me in one way or the other. But for you to attain your current strength with just your own hard work, is truly incredible!” Han Shuo shook his head and again gave recognition to Lisa’s great effort.

“Hehe, well I was afraid that you would look down on me for being too far behind you. But it seems that no matter how hard I try, I still have no way of catching up to you!” Lisa rubbed her little nose and blushed as she divulged her thoughts.

Suddenly, a thought popped into Han Shuo’s mind. He softly said, “Close your eyes, calm down your mind.”

Lisa had unquestioning trust in Han Shuo. Although she had no idea what Han Shuo wanted to do next, she closed her eyes as Han Shuo had instructed. However, for some reason, she couldn’t calm herself down. Her mind would automatically gravitate towards some wishful fantasy.

The two were standing very close to each other as Han Shuo held onto her delicate hands. They could smell the scent coming from each other’s bodies. Lisa was no young lady any more. Lisa’s heartrate was climbing higher and higher. She was filled with both hopeful excitement and nervousness.

When Han Shuo sensed that Lisa’s mind was in disorder, her cheeks flushed, and her breathing rate heightened, he couldn’t swallow a laugh. He gently tapped on her forehead and laughingly said, “What’s going on in your imagination? I’m only going to transfer some understanding about necromancy magic to you, not planning to take advantage of you.”

“I, I wasn’t imagining anything!” Lisa turned bashful and hastily denied. Her heart, however, felt a faint tinge of disappointment.

“Alright, alright. I don’t care what you were thinking about, just calm down for me.” Han Shuo felt as though she had returned to the past and reverted back to be that adorable, yet hateful little witch. For some reason, Han Shuo was very delighted.

At long last, Lisa gradually calmed her mind. She closed her eyes, cast all distracting thoughts from her mind, and took deep, steady breaths.

Han Shuo, who was observing Lisa closely, pressed a finger between her eyebrows when he noticed that her soul was adjusted to its most optimal state. His consciousness, akin to millions of fine threads, slowly entwined with her soul.

It wasn’t the first time that Han Shuo did things like this and he had even become more adept at it after reaching the Nine Changes realm. His consciousness was like data cables that linked up to Lisa’s soul. Some of Han Shuo’s understanding of necromancy magic before he became a sacred magus slowly flowed into Lisa’s mind.

As Lisa was merely an archmage, her soul was simply too weak, therefore the transmission process was rather slow. Han Shuo was afraid that her soul might not be able to handle too much so he was extremely careful, keeping the procedure as safe as possible for her.

Gradually, Lisa had completely relaxed, completely handing her soul to be directed by Han Shuo. This was a display of absolute trust in Han Shuo. With this, the memory transfer had obviously sped up, and Han Shuo’s heart was even more touched. This made him even more cautious and careful.

The two stood there for approximately half an hour. Passerbys walked to and fro and hadn’t the slightest idea of their presence as Han Shuo had obscured Lisa and himself using boundary.

Han Shuo gently pulled back his hand and smiled. He whispered, “Alright. You can open your eyes now!”

Lisa slowly opened her bright eyes. They were filled with pleasantly surprised emotions and amazement. After taking in a deep breath, Lisa suddenly realized, “No wonder, no wonder Teacher Fanny could become a grand magus so quickly. It was because of this. I’ve finally figured it out! Bryan! You heartless guy, you didn’t help me all this time!”

Han Shuo forced a smile and pledged, “In the future, I will definitely treat all of you equally favorably!”
