Infinite Journey Starting from the Fox

"Okay, okay, stop playing, let's get down to business first." Fortunately, Alice interrupted the trio's teasing of Lin Ling in time.

"Miss Alice, thank you." Lin Ling, who had returned to freedom, immediately gave Alice a grateful look.

Marisa: "Hey, it's finally your turn. I've been hurt by your sensitive tail these days, and I've been moved until my legs are weak."

"Marisa, don't be too happy." At this moment, Paqiuli said suddenly, "Come with me here and take off your clothes."

Lin Ling/Marisa was surprised when she heard the words: "Huh? What did you say?"

……

"What are you doing in a daze, do you want us to help in person?" After returning to the magic circle of the Great Library again, Alice said to the two who were still in a daze.

"Well, can you... invite other irrelevant personnel to go out. If you want to test the magic, it will be fine if you two magicians are here?" Lin Ling suggested.

After all, since it is really impossible to avoid being detected by the fruit body, then the only thing we can do is to minimize the loss.

It's a pity that Lingmeng immediately rejected it: "No! We have to guard you here to prevent you from escaping."

"Why are you ashamed, obviously everyone is a girl." The emperor also said.

"If you don't do it again, I will ask Sakuya to help. It only takes a blink of an eye for you to be stripped naked by her." At this time, Remy also urged.

After hearing Remy's words, Sakuya also took out a pocket watch and made a gesture of stopping at any time.

Youmu didn't say anything, but there seemed to be a hint of anticipation on her red face.

"Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you, so just take it off, and you won't lose a piece of meat...Little fox! Let's go."

Lin Ling had no choice but to take off with Marisa even though she was extremely ashamed.

Then, the two who were already naked walked into the huge magic circle together.

Of course, before this test, Lin Ling was informed that she could no longer interfere with magic.

After some testing.

Paqiuli opened, "There is no longer the mysterious connection between the two, and the effect of the technique of perceptual exchange should be completely removed."

Alice: "I think so too."

Paqiuli and Alice came to the same conclusion after a joint inspection.

"Great, since it's over, can you let me go back?" Marisa asked while putting on her clothes.

"What do you think?" Alice's face darkened, and she pointed to one of the maid's outfits, "It's wrong. Although it looks similar, you should wear that outfit."

"Damn it." Marisa could only complain secretly in her heart.

At this time, Yaomeng also ran over excitedly, and said to Lin Ling: "Great, Ling, you have finally recovered."

Suddenly Yaomeng realized that Lin Ling was in a naked state, and then recalled the last time she took off her clothes, she couldn't help but blushed, turned her back and continued: "You should put the clothes on first."

Lin Ling qwq: Huh huh, I've been seen by so many people, I won't be able to get married, huh?Why do I say marry?

However, although the two of them have confirmed that there is no serious problem, the punishment must continue.

"I brought a good thing, as a gift for you, let's choose one." At this time, the emperor did not know where to find a long black and a white long ribbon-shaped thing for Lin Ling and Marisa select.

"What is this?" Marisa took Kuroko's one casually.

Lin Ling had no choice but to take the rest of the white one, but just as she spread the white filamentous object in her hands to see what it was, a feeling of deja vu came over her! "This, this, this! Isn't this stockings!?"

Son of Heaven: "Yes, I didn't expect the little fox to know this thing. It is said that after listening to Sanae's story about this kind of thing from the outside world, the kappa also used the dark underground oil to extract the particularly resilient silk. It's an imitation."

no!I wouldn't wear this to death!This is my last dignity as a man!The little fox in maid outfit secretly swears...

"I have to say that wearing stockings in winter is quite warm, much better than bare legs." Lin Ling, who was forced to wear white silk voluntarily, said to herself.

"Yes." Marisa, who was dressed in black silk, agreed, "However, I always feel that after wearing this, I seem to be a little obedient, and the way Alice and the others look at me has become more and more strange."

"It's pretty good-looking, Sakuya, it seems that I have to buy you a pair." Remi said to Sakuya beside him after admiring the two wearing one black and one white stockings.

Sakuya blushed slightly: "If Missy likes it, I can wear it every day."

Remy: "That's unnecessary, bare legs also have their advantages."

"When will the meal be served? I came here without having breakfast." Lingmeng said at this time.

Remy: "Reimu is hungry, so Sakuya, go make some breakfast~."

"Understood." Sakuya nodded, then took the two new maids away and continued to intervene, "Come with me, from now on you have to wear this outfit to serve the masters."

……

In short, Lin Ling and Marisa started a new maid career.

However, after slowly getting used to the maid's rhythm, Lin Ling, who actually doesn't need to serve too many people, gradually has a lot of free time.

So she used this free time to read the most basic entry-level magic books in the underground library, trying to learn magic seriously, and if there were any questions that she didn't understand, she could also ask Marisa, Paqiuli and others for help. Alice, the three veteran magicians.

This makes Lin Ling's progress very...slow~

"Fireball! Fireball!! Fireball, come out!"

One day, Lin Ling was practicing magic in her free time as usual.

It's a pity that more than ten days have passed, and she still hasn't even practiced the most basic fireball technique, and at most she can only raise a little flame in the palm of her hand.

"Hey~ It seems that maybe I really don't have the talent to practice magic... What kind of hot chicken fireball!"

Just when Lin Ling was about to give up, she suddenly threw a fist-sized fireball with a flick of her hand.

boom!

Then I saw the fist-sized fireball hit the wall and bounced to the bookshelf on the side.

"Wow!"

This startled Lin Ling. Fortunately, a magic shield rose on the bookshelf in time to block the fireball.

"Are you trying to set my library on fire?" Suddenly, Paqiuli's voice sounded from behind Lin Ling, "However, I didn't expect you to be so interested in magic. The fox demon is also a celestial being or even a god."

Chapter 144 Sure enough, I have no talent

"Master Paqiuli! I'm so sorry!" A white silk fox maid hurriedly apologized to Paqiuli, "I'm really sorry! I just want to try the new magic I learned, and I don't mean to destroy your books!"

"It's okay, your little flame is not enough to destroy my magically protected books." Paqiuli didn't care too much, but asked with some doubts, "But why are you obsessed with learning another book from scratch?" What about the power system? Just dig out your own monster blood and the power of the gods."

"Because I have been very interested in magic since I was a child, and the abilities of monsters are basically limited by blood. It is almost difficult to improve except by aging. The words of the gods are all based on faith, but I It seems that the priesthood is difficult to obtain believers..."

Paqiuli: "That's true. Ordinary grass and tree monsters are almost determined to be little monsters for the rest of their lives, and ghosts are born with infinite power. But speaking of it, your bloodline of the nine-tailed fox is not weak. .”

"But it's too slow. It is said that it takes almost 100 years to add a new tail. I can't wait. Unlike magic, it is almost omnipotent, and even if the body is weak, as long as there is enough magic knowledge, it can become It's powerful." At the mention of magic, Lin Ling suddenly became a little excited and fell into a second class.

"Magic is not as simple as you think." However, Paqiuli immediately ruthlessly extinguished Lin Ling's enthusiasm for magic, "You haven't even mastered the most basic fireball technique in ten days, which shows that your magical talent is indeed limited."

"That's it." The lost Lin Ling lowered her fox ears, "It seems that I have no chance with magic."

Paqiuli: "Unfortunately, magic is not something that can be improved simply by accumulating knowledge through hard work. Talent is the most important thing..."

"That's not necessarily the case!" Suddenly Marisa also appeared. When she heard something related to magic, she even forgot the maid etiquette taught by Sakuya, and immediately interrupted Paqiuli's words rudely, "Paqiu Li, hard work is the most important daze!"

As a magician who began to practice from ordinary people, Marisa has always longed for and envied the innately powerful Reimu, so she has been secretly working hard to catch up with the unattainable Reimu.

And now!She was finally able to stand at the same height as Lingmeng, so when she heard that Paqiuli directly denied Lin Ling's efforts, she became angry.

"If you work hard, you may not gain anything, but if you don't work hard, you will definitely not gain anything! Back then, I was just an ordinary person, and it took me a long time to learn flying magic, but now I can occasionally beat Reimu. So Little fox, please keep working hard, you will definitely succeed!" Then Marisa encouraged Lin Ling with a thumbs up.

Lin Ling immediately gained confidence when she heard the words, clenched her fists and said, "Yes! Thank you Marisa, I will definitely work hard!"

"Marisa, you are really a hot-blooded idiot as always, why don't you think that you, a mere teenage girl, can compete with a real magician like Alice and an old magician with a three-digit age like me, Is it really possible to achieve it all by hard work? In fact, you, who call yourself an 'ordinary magician', have almost far surpassed anyone I have met with your magical talent."

"Hey? Is that so?" Marisa, who was praised by Paqiuli, scratched the back of her head a little embarrassedly.

Lin Ling# Hearing this, she immediately glared at Marisa, and said inwardly: Damn, it turns out he is a master of Versailles!

"Ahem, it doesn't matter, isn't it that I can't beat Reimu who barely practices? I still lose most of the duels! And she doesn't even look serious all the time."

Patchouli: "That monster Reimu is out of the question."

"Hey, who are you talking about monsters?" At this moment, Reimu also appeared.As soon as she appeared, she heard someone speak ill of her behind her back, and she suddenly became unhappy.

Paqiuli: "Miss Lingmeng, the monster here is a compliment. After all, almost all the big figures in Gensokyo have been beaten by you. You are really too powerful."

Lingmeng: "There's no way to praise people with monsters. Don't make them so scary. She's just a young girl in her teens!"

"Ahem, I've almost been beaten too~" Marisa added, and then suddenly she changed the subject, "By the way, I thought of a good idea!"

Patchouli: "What attention?"

Marisa: "Paqiuli, don't you think that the little fox has no talent for learning magic? No matter how hard you work, it's useless? Then I will teach her to be a great magician to prove to you that hard work is the most important thing!"

"Oh? It's interesting." Paqiuli nodded, "Then how do you want to bet and what do you want to bet on?"

"Well, let me think about it. The content of the game is that in the next maid's time, I will train the little fox to be a magician who is good at at least one kind of magic. If I succeed, you will release us early; otherwise, if I fail If we do, I would like to double our time as maids!" After speaking, Marisa pointed at Reimu, "It happens that Reimu is also here, so let's ask Reimu to be a witness."

"Huh? Be a witness? It seems so troublesome~" Reimu said a little troublesome.

Marisa thought for a while: "If you win, you have no loss. If you lose, how about the wages of the little fox and the maid behind me?"

Reimu: "That's about the same."

"The content and rules of the game are quite reasonable, and I have no objection." Then Paqiuli also agreed, "However, practicing magic can't take up the time of the maid's practice, otherwise it won't be regarded as punishment!"

"No problem." Marisa assured, patted her chest.

"What about my opinion?" Lin Ling said weakly at this moment.

It's a pity that Lin Ling's inquiry was directly ignored by others.

Damn Marisa, you can bet if you want, don't involve me casually!I don't want to wear a white silk maid outfit for another month or something!Then maybe I will become strange from the outside to the inside!

……

However, on the second day.

"Fireball!"

bang~

After Mr. Marisa's serious teaching, Lin Ling's fireball technique... still can only release a small flame~

"Oh~ you can't do this, I taught you all night last night, why haven't you changed?" After seeing this scene, Marisa, who was always full of energy, couldn't help regretting yesterday's impulsiveness, "So we Don't you have to be a maid for another month?"

"It's not because of your sudden stupidity! You just settled the bet there by yourself! You still have to get me involved, you idiot!" Since getting acquainted with Marisa, Lin Ling has also become able to act like a friend with Marisa. I communicated with Marisa "kindly" like a good friend in this life.

"Hey hey~" Marisa tried to pass the level cutely, "But maybe you are really not good at my kind of active-attack 'light-heat' magic, I teach almost all the tips and experience skills of entry-level fireball Here it is, it stands to reason that even ordinary people wouldn’t be without progress.”

Lin Ling sighed: "Oh~ In other words, I really don't have the talent for magic?"

"At present, it may be true to say that." Marisa said with a chin.

Lin Ling: "It's over, it's over, even Marisa, a hard-working idiot, said that I have no talent. It seems that I really shouldn't have any hope for magic."

"That's not necessarily the case, maybe you just have no talent in elemental attack magic, but! There are many types of magic!" At this moment, Marisa smiled mysteriously, "Come on, I'll take you to see Alice. look."

Chapter 145

Fortunately, almost all the members of the 'Victims' Alliance' have been coming to the Scarlet Devil Mansion these days.

The purpose is of course to enjoy the service of Lin Ling and Marisa.

So Marisa quickly took Lin Ling to find Alice who was drinking tea and chatting with Paqiuli.

"Are you saying that Marisa is going to bet you on maid time?"

At this time, Alice had just listened to Paqiuli's talk about her bet with Marisa yesterday.

"Yes." Patchouli nodded, "Although Marisa always looks confident, that little fox doesn't seem to have any magical talent."

"That's it." Alice recalled the previous two inspections of the little fox's body. "It's true that she doesn't have any magic power in her body. It's not realistic to want to master a kind of magic in such a short period of time."

"That's not necessarily the case, Alice~" Marisa came out suddenly again, "Little fox, give them a whole fire."

"Alright, fireball!"

Then I saw Lin Ling silently reciting the fireball spell she learned from a basic magic book in the library, and then a football-sized fireball was formed from her hand.

However, I only got Paqiuli's contemptuous eyes: "As for the illusion, I heard about it from Remy, and it may be because you don't understand the fireball at all, this imitation is not very similar, it's just a It's just an ordinary flame sphere."

"Hahaha." Marisa patted Patchouli's back with a smile, and praised, "As expected of Patchouli, I can tell at a glance that the little fox's fireball is fake."

Paqiuli, who has always been weak, rolled her eyes at Marisa, and then let the little devil rub her back that hurt from being slapped just now: "Really, why do you always give birth to such insignificant things? It seems that Sakuya still I haven't adjusted you well, and if you want Lin Ling to use illusion to deceive us, you'd better save it, I have experience with Remy, and I will definitely test the final result."
