Chapter 193: Inherited Skills
"Ahh! Lyla, it's unfair. Look how Li Wei bullied me!! You have to do something to take revenge!" Irene complained with a crying face and tears as she hugged Lyla tightly to console herself.
Alice was also complaining while hugging Elva with tears, as they both saw Li Xin, Li Yin, and Lily all right with cute doodles on their faces.
"Elva, look, Brother Li is bullying me on purpose and even threatening me with my food," Alice shouted with irritation.
But both Lyla and Elva didn't care.
"Priestess Irene, this is what you insisted upon doing, so now you are facing your retribution, and I will not help you with this," Lyla stated with a cold look.
She let Irene do whatever she wanted because it was very rare for her to escape and have fun like this, so she didn't try to stop her, particularly from doodling on Li Wei's face just because she was a priestess.
Irene even did this to her father and her face so she didn't care too much; however, it didn't mean she would help her with the troubles afterward. It was she who insisted on doing this and she has to bear the brunt. Read exclusive content at m_v-l'-NovelFire
"Noo! Lyla, you can't let your little sister suffer like this," Irene shouted with an unwilling face as Li Wei gave an order not to erase it. If not, he won't be giving snow to her.
With the contract with Lyla, she didn't need to worry about this, but she wanted more snow. Not to mention, Lyla might give a bowl of snow to her and will be done with that as she hasn't included how much she should give in terms.
It was a mistake that she made with excitement of getting snow, and now she can only regret it while hoping Lyla won't find out about this, and also Li Wei must give her a lot of snow if not she would end up with nothing if Lyla ever got the hang of her mistake.
This was the reason why she wasn't able to resist Li Wei when he doodled on her face, but she was angry and ashamed after knowing he drew pigs on her cheeks.
However, Lyla didn't even care about it and ignored her shouts. It was all Irene who started this, so she has to bear it.
The same was for Alice who was complaining to Elva with large tears in her eyes, but Elva remained unmoved with a cold look not even feeling any pity for her.
Because it was Alice who told Lily to write such things through telepathy. Lily did know about a lot of adult knowledge now, but she was still unaware of indirect and bad language because Olivia didn't teach her this.
So, Lily doesn't have any problem in writing and only thought Alice might be pulling his legs for not lasting in the spar long enough, but how could Li Wei and others believe it that Alice didn't mean anything indirectly.
So, Li Wei didn't hesitate to draw a donkey on her face, as for Li Xin, Li Yin, and Lily, he let them off lightly because they were having fun even if they are making him look like a joke.
He could still remember when Li Xin drew the doodles on his face, and it was when their parents were alive, but after they passed away, she became silent and stopped doing a lot of things she liked.
It was only in recent months she was becoming cheerful so watching her enjoy now like this, Li Wei felt relieved and didn't mind too much except feeling a little irritated. The same was Li Yin; he didn't mind her at all.
As for Lily, he was treating her as a little kid. She won't accept this if he said it loudly, so he was just keeping it for himself and also didn't mind her.
It might seem he is treating them differently, but he couldn't help it because Alice and Irene were only doodling on him with the intentions of revenge for something he didn't do.
So, he didn't hesitate when doing this while Elva, Irene, and Olivia didn't stop him, also knowing who was wrong here.
In Elva's eyes, Alice was none other than a heinous criminal cat who wanted to cause trouble for no reason, so she didn't even show any pity towards her complaints and turned towards Li Xin and others who were done wiping the doodles on their faces.
"Sister Li, we should spar now," she suggested as they didn't have anything to do except this.
Li Xin also knew so she agreed with a nod and started to spar with them. Alice also joined unwillingly, hoping to get doodles on her face wiped with sweat, while Lyla and Irene sat on the bench observing them.
Of course, Irene was sulking with irritation; however, no one cared about her and continued what they were doing.
As they were busy, Li Wei arrived in his room to get dressed as his clothes weren't in good condition, and he was bare-chested because of Li Xin.
"Sigh, XinXin is getting more and more naughty," he muttered, but honestly, he was happy with her changing like this.
The more she interacted with others freely, the more he would be relieved to leave her with them. This was the reason why he was letting her do what she wanted, because someday he would have to do some tasks and has to leave her alone at home.
These tasks can be personal or even from the world system with dangers involved in it. That's why he wanted her to get along with others so he could leave her safely with them, and she wouldn't feel alone or sad just because he was not beside her.
As he thought of this, he suddenly remembered that he learned Lyla's skills in the spar before and hurriedly decided to check, only to become dumbfounded.
There were total four skills he learned from Lyla, and they were Shadow Domain, Shadow Manipulation, Shadow Servant Command, and Feather Touch. These four skills were all level 120, and the most important was that they were all inherited skills!
"Fuck, what the hell is with so many inheritance skills? Did she hit some kind of jackpot? Also, level 120 skills; it means she is above level 150," Li Wei muttered with a frown after reading this.
When he first met Lyla, she used a level 108 sleep skill; because of that, he doubted she must be above level 150, but he was also puzzled why she wasn't using her strength in monster stampede then.
However, when he read skill descriptions further, he understood what happened. The skills were inherited and can be leveled up beyond one grade; it's just it will cost twice as much MP to cast if they do that.
The same was for the sleep skill; it's just he didn't read the extra description written in small letters, and because there was no mention of this in his skill panel, he also didn't care about it.
"I think I should sort out my skills," he muttered as he saw the problem and created a separate list for inherited skills where he can move them for better and faster readability.
Good thing the system allowed it if not he might have to find skills personally one by one reading their description. He also wanted to sort other skills, but Olivia was waiting for him in the kitchen, so he decided to do it later and headed to make a meal for everyone.
It didn't take much time as in an hour he was done with the meal and served it on the dinner table after Olivia invited everyone.
Alice and Irene now has clean faces because Li Wei asked them to clean up before the meal. They were both happy yet sulking at this; however, he didn't care and started the meal with everyone.
Lyla was embarrassed a little eating with them, but she slowly got used to it and started to talk about fashion with Li Xin and others.
Li Wei felt speechless at this, wondering how much they have to talk about with just one topic, but after he listened, he became dumbfounded.
Because now the Elmoral kingdom started to produce fashionable outfits from Earth, and most of them were cosplay outfits.
'Damn, you're stealing my business,' Li Wei cursed after knowing this.
He was planning to do the same to earn money, but someone beat him to it. Nevertheless, he wasn't that depressed, as he also thought of other ways.
But this news gave him urgency to put his plans into action soon. If not, his ideas might only remain as ideas while someone else enjoys the profits.
As he thought of this, he felt depressed again and finished his meal with others, who were still excited about the new outfits and were deciding to pay a visit to take a look.
Li Wei knew this wouldn't end with just a look, and their chat might continue forever, so he interrupted them.
"Miss Irene, now that everyone is full, why don't you increase our spirit attributes first, after that you all can chat as long as you want," he suggested.
