"Honestly, Senior Isayama, just lie down and think about the right things, like reflecting on why you have become like this." Li Nian placed a wreath on her, which helped to perfect the image of this beautiful woman. She felt that her expression was not so ferocious, but would be perfect if it was softer. She said, "You were immersed in your understanding just now, and you figured out a more fierce sword swing. I have to congratulate you, but the current situation should be a wake-up call for you. Stronger sword swings mean higher lethality, but in essence, it consumes more of your mana at the same time to achieve a stronger output. You obviously didn't think about these things when you were in your head, and you lost the overall view. It's because you swung this killing move randomly without making comprehensive adjustments to your state that you exerted too much force and caused such an overloaded state."
"..."
"Although what you said seems to make sense, classmate Li Nian, I think that before you let her calm down, you should at least not do anything to further stimulate her?" Kanda didn't understand what Li Nian was saying, but he could see what Li Nian was doing with his hands.
"It's okay. Didn't you hear that Isayama-senpai will take revenge on me later? Before that, I have to make the most of the little time I have to have more fun."
Li Nian's unrepentant answer left Kanda speechless. Jianshan was stunned for a moment, then he took Li Nian's reminder in, calmed down, and began to think about things. But of course he also heard his stupid words. Jianshan was no longer angry at the moment, and instead smiled gently for the first time: "Just wash your neck and wait, it's all done."
Kanda saw that it was an expression of laughter from extreme anger and couldn't help but shudder, but Li Nian was already in debt and was not afraid of the pressure. Instead, she took the opportunity to seize the opportunity when Isayama's expression became peaceful to take a photo of her as a souvenir. Then she felt that the fun was almost over and didn't care about the threat in Isayama's tone at all, and continued to speak.
"Take a break. During the break, review your previous understandings. After you have rested, come and take revenge on me. You still have a lot of things to do today. Don't just collapse from exhaustion. Do you remember the way I demonstrated women using feathered clothes to fight? Can you reproduce it? Later, I will entrust you with the various magic arrays running in this seal. By then, you will become the master of this world, and you will be able to freely use the concentrated spiritual power and write and draw various spells in the entire array. You can take this opportunity to learn the spells I have already written and drawn, and feel how to control more powerful forces. I will play the role of the Demon King, stand on the opposite side of you, and use only limited means to try to attack you. Complete the action design of the battle between the Demon King and the God. This should not be too much work. Later, I will help optimize your body strengthening spells. I feel that there are some problems in your basic swordsmanship moves. I remember a few places and will point them out for you to modify..."
Like reading out the names of dishes, Li Nian recounted the various things he planned to complete today, all of which involved Isayama's practice.
Everyone around was stunned. They had no idea that Li Nian had thought about so many things in order to guide Isayama.
Isayama listened to it. As the one who was clearly arranged, he had never expected that so many training tasks would suddenly fall on him on a good Sunday. His face became paler and paler. He knew that no matter what it was, she would need to participate wholeheartedly and would be exhausted. Don't expect to have much time to breathe at the end of the day...
"…This is so strange. Didn't I come here to eat and help with your animation production today? Why am I the busiest person all of a sudden?"
This was not the weekend Isayama had imagined at all!
She had originally wanted to come to Sakurasou to relax, spend a few hours with Li Nian to complete the action design for some animation production, stretch her body comfortably in such a friendly and leisurely exchange, and then enjoy all kinds of delicious food and drinks. She would have nothing else to worry about, and could have a good chat with a few friends, enjoy the lively atmosphere of everyone getting together, rest comfortably, have a good sleep, and then greet the new week.
But now, she had just arrived at Sakurasou and was beaten up by Li Nian, forced to use all her strength and tried until she was exhausted and limp. But that was not enough, and she was put in a coffin to rest. After the rest, she had to continue to devote herself to the busy training tasks... Is this how a day off should be spent?
"It's okay. I'm busy with you. Just be content."
Li Nian tried to comfort her, but of course it backfired.
"That's not the point! Who wants to be busy with you? I don't even want to be busy!" Isayama wailed.
"Don't say such discouraging words. Being busy is the normal state of society. Everything I do is for your own good."
"It appeared. It was the classic line used by parents when they were imposing education on others."
"Besides, it's just a small thing and it will be done quickly."
"Come on, forget it! Any one of these things would be a huge hassle! Are you sure you want me to learn magic, perfect martial arts, and practice combat all in one day?"
"Sure, don't complain. I have to do this level of practice every day, and I only have about an hour a day for morning exercise."
"You do similar practices every day? Are you kidding me? Even if it's true, don't use your standards to judge others, okay?"
"I can help you with the theoretical stuff. You just need to accept my cramming education. The knowledge of the technique will be naturally instilled into your brain as you master this formation. I will also let you remember the martial arts through [personal experience]. One day is enough."
"…It sounds like the way you teach technology is not safe at all?"
"…It will only cause some minor head tingling and body aches as side effects."
"...I won't die anyway, right...As expected, I not only have to suffer but also have to suffer...My wonderful weekend." Isayama showed an empty expression as if he had lost all desire to live. Looking at the ceiling, he suddenly felt that it would be nice to lie comfortably like this and do nothing. Instead, he didn't want to jump out of the coffin so soon to beat Li Nian. It would be nice to be a corpse for a longer time.
The conversation between the two exorcists revealed an atmosphere that was difficult for ordinary people to interrupt. Although the two of them spoke casually, as if they were chatting about family matters, the various pieces of information they revealed seemed quite... strange and important. Those were Li Nian's various arrangements for Isayama's practice, which reflected his desire to train Isayama seriously in order to improve her strength.
Now the two of them were arguing, but they had actually completed the negotiations and exchanged opinions with each other.
Kanda asked hesitantly, "Although Isayama-senpai seemed very reluctant...but in the end she didn't refuse, which means she accepted it, right?"
"That was the training carefully arranged by the gorilla to make her stronger. Isayama-senpai has no reason or qualifications to refuse." Ryunosuke said lightly. He was converting the format of the video and exporting it in segments for backup. Misaki wanted to review it again, so she was watching the video she had taken before carefully on another computer next to her.
Indeed, since Jianshan did not refuse out loud, it means that he agreed with Li Nian's attitude towards her training arrangement and would seriously participate in the training in the future. She is such a person. For example, the work arranged by the Yin Yang Bureau was too busy, which caused her to complain constantly, but she would still do her best when executing it. The current situation is just as Ryunosuke said. She also knows that Li Nian is serious about helping her become stronger. At the moment, she has gained extremely valuable insights through the previous battles. Jianshan knows that such a Li Nian may really have the ability to help her complete further transformation in the future, so naturally he will not really miss this opportunity to say no.
Although this does not prevent her from radiating negative energy while lying in the coffin, the thought "why i'm still here? Just to suffer?" is circling in her mind.
Shiina could see Isayama's distress and reached out to touch the senior's head gently: "Huangquan, come on!"
The genuine comfort of the innocent child calling her by her name made Isayama feel a little comforted, but at the same time, he felt a little sour. Did Li Nian really treat her as a female Amazon warrior and train her unscrupulously? He even put her in a coffin and sprinkled flowers on it to make fun of her? Couldn't he frankly encourage and praise her for her hard work?
No, the more I think about it, the angrier I get. I must beat him up, I must!
"If it were me, I would never accept this kind of forced arrangement to do this kind of Spartan-style training." Sawamura shook his head without hesitation: "I can't understand the thought process of the athletic department at all. Seizing every opportunity to practice and become stronger, is this some hot-blooded comic protagonist?"
"If you don't become stronger, you won't be able to deal with the crisis, you won't be able to protect yourself, and you won't be able to save your companions." Wu Geng has always wanted to say this line, and now he finally got the chance, sighing with a sigh: "There is no way, they are the ones fighting in the dark... This is the exorcist."
"It's not just the exorcists, everyone is the same." Looking at Isayama-senpai who was so tired that she couldn't move, Qingshan was more concerned about the senior's fierce attack than Li Nian's calm and composed attitude when watching the two fight before. He felt that the passionate posture was particularly inspiring... He also felt that Isayama's expression of despair and escape at this moment was very real: "Even if you feel tired and exhausted, you must seize the opportunity to become stronger... No matter who you are, it's the same."
"Is that so?" Kato disagreed and shook his head: "It's impossible for people who don't have clear goals like you to do it."
"Indeed, not everyone has the tenacity to not avoid pain and trouble, but to face difficulties and move forward." Ren smiled and said, "You are amazing, Nanami, who takes such things for granted."
"...I'm not as great as Li Nian and some of my seniors." Qingshan shook his head.
"I don't understand the thoughts of you hard-working people, but I am sure that you are rare species." Sawamura said outrageously: "Lying down and playing badly is the ultimate pursuit of normal humans!"
"Well, I won't scold you since Eriri is a good painter while saying one thing and doing another." Amaki glanced at the many pieces of drawing paper in his childhood sweetheart's hands. He knew that this guy couldn't help but draw as he had many thoughts while watching the gorgeous battle. He understood that although Eriri liked to be lazy, she was still working hard in her own way and would seize opportunities when they should be.
"You can give up if you want, but I hope it's after you finish the illustrations for my novel." Li Nian walked over to the crowd and heard their discussion. He knew that everyone still had a lot of feelings about the things they did. He thought this was a good sign and asked, "How is it? After coming to the temple I built and seeing the friendly discussion between Isayama and me, has it been a little helpful for the work you are doing?"
He wasn't just asking Ren and Misaki who wanted to make anime, he was asking everyone including Sawamura and Shiina.
"It's more than just a little bit, it's exceeded expectations. It's really helpful. Thank you for your hard work. I didn't expect that Li Nian could do this. You are so thoughtful." Senior Ren did not forget that Li Nian did all this on purpose. Li Nian's efforts so far have far exceeded the responsibilities of a general "martial arts instructor."
"I wish I could help you."
Li Nian nodded with satisfaction. He knew that as long as one was a creator, he would have feelings about everything he saw. The stronger the external impact, the more inspiration they would get. This was also the reason why he had prepared such a grand scene with great fanfare.
Misaki suddenly asked, "Newcomer, you have prepared so many things. Do you want to convey something to us?"
Everyone was stunned, not understanding what Misaki meant by asking this, and thought it was just another weird rambling from a psychopath.
Li Nian also felt it was sudden, but smiled and said, "Senior Umigusa, you may not be very smart, but you are quite sensitive... I really want to show you the so-called [real] courage."
He tried his best to restore a kind of reality, so as to show everyone the so-called true beauty.
So they built a real temple, demonstrated Hagoromo's fighting style, dragged Isayama into real combat, and showed his true self as a warrior.
Although some people once said, "People who seek a sense of reality in fictional stories must have something wrong with their brains," Li Nian does not agree with this statement. Instead, she believes that the more realistic the performance, the more shocking it is.
[Reality] itself is complex enough, comprehensive enough, and dramatic enough...It is more effective to practice it than to try hard to perform something.
Chapter 398: No matter how powerful you are, you are still funny
Logically speaking, the so-called true courage is also a very stream-of-consciousness statement, but only at this moment, everyone can more or less understand what Li Nian wants to explain.
Because they have seen the truth that Li Nian has shown.
They saw the temple made by Li Nian, which was fully detailed and seemed to exist in a civilized city somewhere in the world.
I saw him lend his strength to An Yi and Gogen to play with.
Seeing him waving the thin feather robe, his movements were as graceful and light as dancing, but he blocked out Isayama's sharp sword swings, and summoned various glowing magic arrays, blasting out streams of light with power comparable to artillery fire.
I saw him being stabbed by the knife, his skin torn and blood gushing out, and the wound healed as before not long after.
Seeing him draw his sword and stop performing, fighting with his real strength, which is his usual fighting style, shows a more stable attitude and stronger strength.
Seeing is believing. What Li Nian wanted to tell everyone has been seen clearly enough by them. The so-called true courage lies in every picture and every move of Li Nian.
Everyone present was truly shocked by this. They had seen similar scenes in movies, animations, and novels, but none of them was as shocking as seeing it with their own eyes, because it was real.
"Just to provide a reference for our creation? Is it worth it?" Ren said with a wry smile.
"Not only that, I also completed the sparring with Isayama, educated her with actual combat, and verified the various new spells I learned. By the way, I also let you feast your eyes, visit the ancient buildings, and play immersive cosplay." Li Nian touched his chin and counted on his fingers the various achievements he had achieved in the past. He felt that the hard work was still worth it: "Look, it helped everyone's work, and those who came to play had a lot of fun, and they also learned what they should learn. It's a win-win situation. What's not worth it? I think it's too worthwhile."
Sawamura actually wanted to complain about this, and couldn't help but say, "It's fine to train Isayama-senpai, but it's also okay to use it as a reference for creation? Even to let others play with it?"
Not only her, everyone more or less felt that there was no need for Li Nian to go to this extent. Sawamura expressed everyone's thoughts.
Li Nian smiled and said, "It's great, isn't it? Sawamura, don't you feel like your horizons have been broadened? Do you have inspiration for painting?"
"... Well, that's right. I'm also the beneficiary."
"That's it... I know what you want to say, Sawamura. You want to criticize me like Isayama did, saying that I don't need to use my power in the right way. But the so-called power is a means to achieve a goal. There is no restriction on using it for a specific purpose. I have this means, so I use it to achieve my goal. After all, it's just a day's hard work, but I have achieved so many meaningful and profitable achievements, and I enjoy it myself. What reason is there not to do it?"
"...That's right, I was just complaining, any normal person would think it's exaggerated."
"Hasn't Sawamura seen the illusion I created? Do you still think it's exaggerated?"
"That illusion is quite real, but what you made today is more impactful than an illusion, it is the real thing." Sawamura showed a hopeful expression: "I know that you can do this kind of thing effortlessly, can you make a real scene for my illustration?"
"No." Li Nian rejected it immediately.
"Why? Didn't you just say that you can do these things casually?" Sawamura yelled in dissatisfaction: "You can help Misaki-senpai and the others make animations, but you can't help me and your own novels to draw illustrations! This is biased!"
"Who said I can make these things easily? How much preparation do you think I made and how long did it take to build this city?" Li Nian explained: "The function of this temple is mainly to provide a solid enough venue for Isayama and I to fight freely. As an entity, the temple itself carries various magic arrays and depicts various spells. At the same time, it gathers the spiritual power in the entire space, which can provide the power to protect Isayama and help her recover, and also provides me with materials for casting spells..."
"Materials for casting spells?" Sawamura's eyes were wandering, and it was obvious that he was thinking of something else.
"...You have a really powerful brain, Sawamura-san, to be able to think of something wrong at this time." Li Nian sincerely admired Sawamura's associative ability.
"What, I didn't think of anything wrong! It's all your fault for using a strange wording! Besides, don't you know that this wording is ambiguous? You did it on purpose!" Sawamura blushed when he realized that his thoughts had been seen through.
Li Nian was too lazy to refute such stupid words, and continued: "In short, if it is just for reference for your painting, it is more convenient and easier to create an illusion that only affects the five senses, and it will also allow you to see all kinds of good things."
In the previous battle, the technique that protected Isayama from the impact was provided by the temple itself. The technique could cover the outside like armor, wrapping up Isayama as an individual, and actually made Isayama and the temple become one. The strength of the technique armor would be replenished all the time. Attacking her was equivalent to attacking the entire temple, and the power would be dispersed. This was the reason why Isayama could survive the bombardment of Li Nian's light cannon.
The temple is a creation that materializes fantasies. The source of its materials is the huge spiritual power gathered by the large formation running in the entire seal. The temple itself is like the core eye of the formation. Li Nian can perform spells at will, materialize fantasies at will, and make all kinds of gadgets. This is also because the entire formation is running non-stop under his control. Standing in this temple, he can gain strength continuously, and his magic power is huge and almost constant.
Li Nian is now a mage standing in his own position.
He will give this position to Isayama to play with later.
Although his thoughts wandered to some strange places, Sawamura understood that Li Nian actually felt that doing all these things in a big way was a very troublesome matter... He also heard that it was just a troublesome matter, not a difficult matter, so he tried to probe: "Then I will take a step back. I don't need you to build a city, just help me make some small things..."
Li Nian was helpless, knowing what the artist was still thinking about: "Are you still thinking about black silk, white silk, and school uniforms?"
"Almost... It's easy for you, right? Just like making a feather robe like that."
Li Nian had said before that he had the ability to make those things in the illusion. Now it seems that it is not only an illusion but also real objects. It is like a human-shaped 3D printer. Naturally, Sawamura wanted to use this ability.
If it was just clothes, the size was indeed that small, and it wouldn't be as troublesome to make as a temple. It was a small item that Li Nian could easily make. When he and Isayama officially started to demonstrate the battle between the Devil and God, Li Nian would also change Isayama and himself into corresponding clothes. Li Nian didn't care about making clothes itself, but he knew that Sawamura's intentions were not pure at all, so he was a little resistant to it. He was a little relieved at this time, but still suspicious.
"...Don't you already have a lot of stock? Do you need me to make it specially?"
"You also know that the clothes you buy are fixed styles after all, and it is more troublesome to customize special details..."
"... Let me make this clear first. After all, those creations are the product of projection. They are based on my magic power, so they cannot be preserved, collected, or resold."
"...Ah? Will it disappear?" Sawamura really had this in mind. When he heard that it couldn't be preserved for a long time, Toshi sighed in disappointment: "But it doesn't matter. I mainly plan to use it as a reference when I draw. It will be fine as long as I can make a picture that meets the requirements... Speaking of which, you are so amazing that you can adjust your body to become a woman of various shapes, put on those clothes and be a model..."
"I refuse. I don't want to do it."
Wu Geng noticed Li Nian's choice of words and laughed sinisterly: "Didn't you say we can't do it?"
"…So if you can help me, please!" Sawamura suddenly became excited: "What's the big deal? It's not a strange hobby for boys to dress up as women these days."
"…Isn't it strange?" Kanda asked An Yi in horror.
An Yi shook his head seriously: "No, it's still quite strange."
Li Nian answered flatly: "I don't have such interests or hobbies, and I don't want to awaken such interests or hobbies."
Sawamura yelled in dissatisfaction: "Why? You were dancing in the hagoromo and performing the female role just now, weren't you doing it well?"
"Those are two different things."
"What's more, you are devoting yourself to the great cause of illustration!"
"I don't want to devote myself to this kind of career at all." Li Nian knew that if she didn't give Sawamura an alternative option, it would only make her worry about it and make her quarrel non-stop. She sighed, "Besides, you don't need me to play a female role, right? There are all kinds of girls here, fat and thin. For example, you are a petite type."
"…Are you looking at my breasts while saying this?"
Li Nian pretended to be nonchalant and shifted his gaze from the flat chest of Sawamura to the female exorcist who was lying peacefully in the coffin: "That one is a sturdy type."
Isayama was too lazy to comment on the fact that she was mistaken for an Amazon warrior.
"Don't change the subject! I have a nice body, okay?"
Sawamura insisted that Li Nian correct the classification of her body shape, and An Yi looked at him with pity: "Have you finally lost your self-awareness, Eriri?" Then he was kicked out by Sawamura as a matter of course.
"And..." Li Nian's eyes turned.
Ren smiled and stopped Li Nian from looking at Misaki's hot and curvy figure.
Qingshan immediately avoided Li Nian's gaze, took a defensive posture, and cast a look that warned him not to look around.
Li Nian turned to look at senior sister Kasumigaoka, who noticed that she did not hide or avoid, but proudly held her head high and chest out, and even deliberately stretched out her arms to highlight her mature part and threw a seductive glance at her, so Li Nian gave her evaluation.
"The type of obesity."
Kasumigaoka's face darkened, and he said to Isayama beside him: "Isayama, when you beat him up later, take my part into account and hit harder."
Isayama nodded peacefully. She already had the strength to move her neck.
