"Our great hero, what kind of woman do you like?"
Countless eyes were fixed on this question, ready to remember his answer.
Luo Zhen thought for a moment and said, "She's beautiful inside and out."
"That's too general. What's your preference?"
Yuki Tsukumo smiled and asked, "Hot? Reserved? Alluring? Or something else?"
Luo said sincerely, "I like them all."
Volume 1: Chapter 48 - Raiden Mei Gathers Her Courage
After the banquet, the two returned to the hut where the commission was being made. Toyokawa Shoko teased, "I thought you would stay overnight. I see quite a few young and beautiful female sorcerers want to spend the night with you. It's not impossible for you to have a night of revelry every night."
"And that Ninety-Nine Yuki."
Shoko Toyokawa said, "When she asks you this question, it feels like she's deliberately flirting with you."
"There's no way around it, my charm is just too great."
Luo Zhen said, "They must be trying to steal my bloodline because they see how strong I am."
They clearly want to sleep with me, but they haven't posted a single commission. They're obviously trying to get freebies from me!
Even if he were to make a request, Luo Zhen might not necessarily agree. His standards are now very high; he looks down on ordinary women. If he wanted, all the beautiful girls in the entire Wisdom Clan would offer themselves to him, regarding his favor as a great honor. They are no better than these ordinary people.
Now, to get Luo Zhen's interest, you have to be a super high school level beauty.
Raiden Mei pushed open the door and greeted Luo Zhen happily, "When is training today?"
Luo Zhen has a request for her to become stronger, and the reward will be calculated based on Raiden Mei's final strength after the task is completed.
Therefore, Luo Zhen had to train her every day.
Luo Zhen took out a stack of documents: "Do you know about the Divine Key? It's a weapon forged using the cores of Herrschers from the previous civilization era. World Serpent has preserved the third Divine Key, the Seven Thunders of Purification."
"The Seven Thunders of Purification is a conscious weapon that can manifest different weapon forms and functions depending on the user, but it has two core and most powerful abilities."
"In sniper rifle mode, the scope of the Seven Thunders of Purification, with the help of the omnipresent electromagnetic field, provides a vision that transcends three dimensions. The entire city unfolds before the user like a Rubik's Cube from a higher dimension, leaving nothing hidden."
"The Seven Thunders of Purification can fire a bullet that can decompose objects at the atomic level by eliminating the electromagnetic interaction between microscopic particles."
"With one shot, even the most advanced materials science of the previous civilization, the all-powerful and incredibly strong Soul Steel, would be completely destroyed."
Raiden Mei was a little uncertain: "You mean I should study this?"
"Yes."
Luo Zhen nodded. "The power of the Seven Thunders of Purification comes from the core of the Herrscher of Thunder. You are the Herrscher of Thunder of this generation, and you have the ability to manipulate electromagnetic fields. Learning this is a piece of cake for you."
He took out a stack of books and placed them in front of Raiden Mei: *Multivariable Calculus*, *Surface and Curve Calculus*, *Linear Algebra and Its Applications*, *Complex Functions and Integral Transforms*, *Introduction to Electrodynamics*, *Field Theory*, *Electromagnetic Theory in Microwaves and Optoelectronics*...
Raiden Mei was afraid.
Just seeing these book titles made her dizzy and breathless, as if she were about to drown in an ocean of knowledge.
To be fair, Raiden Mei isn't a bad student; her grades in all subjects are quite good, but she's still far from being a researcher.
She would rather face a hundred Honkai Beasts or Titans than open a single page of these books.
"Oh, right, there's something else I need to tell you."
Raiden Mei said, "After the Grey Serpent triggered the Honkai in the No Man's Land, making me the Herrscher of Thunder, I gained another consciousness within me, calling herself the Queen of Thunder. Do you think the Herrscher personality will destroy the world?"
"She can also control my body."
Luo Zhen explained, "It's not necessarily the Herrscher personality; it could also be the Stigmata personality. Since she's not controlling you to destroy the world right now, it means she doesn't intend to do so, so there's no need to worry too much."
He changed Raiden Mei's life trajectory. Ryouma really couldn't figure out how the Raiden Queen was born, but he was probably a Mei fan.
"You don't need to worry too much. Just interact with her normally. Think about it, having a hidden personality that comes out to take over in crucial moments, isn't that a classic manga plot?"
Raiden Mei's eyes lit up as she listened, her chuunibyou spirit burning brightly. At that moment, her demeanor changed, and she seemed like a queen on a high and mighty throne.
Herrscher persona activated!
The Thunder Queen walked up to Luo Zhen, pinned him against the wall, lifted his chin, and pressed her black-stockinged legs against his lower abdomen.
"You're very good, no wonder I chose you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Raiden Mei forced him offline.
"Don't listen to her nonsense!"
Raiden Mei stammered as she explained, "Actually... it's nothing."
A faint, cold snort echoed in her ears; it was the voice of the Thunder Queen.
"coward."
Because she was too close to Luo Zhen's face, Raiden Mei's face began to turn red. She turned her head away shyly and saw Toyokawa Shoko looking at the two of them with great interest.
When Raiden Mei turned her gaze over, she casually grabbed a book to block her view, pretending that she hadn't seen anything. But Raiden Mei was already so embarrassed that her scalp tingled, and her jade feet, encased in black stockings, wished they could dig out a three-bedroom, two-living-room house.
Luo Zhen looked at Raiden Mei with great interest, making her feel embarrassed. She then patted the book on the table and said:
"You don't need to worry that these things are too obscure and difficult to understand. As the Herrscher of Thunder, you control the electromagnetic field. Controlling electromagnetism is as simple as controlling your hands and feet for you."
"Do you know about sports anatomy? It studies the structure, function, and interrelationships of the human body during exercise to help people exercise and stay fit more scientifically."
"For you, these books are like textbooks for sports anatomy. You don't need to have a deep understanding of the principles. You just need to know how to use this power correctly. Theory combined with practice will come little by little."
Why are you still talking about these things? I don't want to see them at all.
Raiden Mei had no intention of opening these books; she felt that looking at them for too long would cause her to explode.
She suddenly had a mind-blowing idea: since learning these things is much simpler for the Herrscher of Thunder, wouldn't it be twice as effective if she let the Herrscher personality learn them?
Thunder Queen, come out and eat the power-up pack!
She silently called upon the Lawyer's persona.
Please, another me!
The Thunder Queen, who had been so powerful just moments before, was now completely unresponsive, as if she didn't exist. Her silence was so profound that her alternate personality seemed like a figment of imagination.
Damn it, Queen of Thunder, how could you be afraid of such a small challenge!
Do you even deserve to be called a queen?!
Raiden Mei internally criticized the Raiden Queen, but the Raiden Queen remained silent, pretending to be dead.
At that moment, Doro handed Raiden Mei an orange.
"Thank you."
Raiden Mei peeled the orange, ate it, and felt a surge of courage within her.
【Courage Orengi: Inspires courage in users】
She looked at the textbook in front of her, her heart filled with boundless ambition. Wasn't this just a textbook of similar difficulty to sports anatomy? Watch me grab it and master it in an instant!
Another thought arose in her mind: as one of the four fundamental forces of the universe, if I could master electromagnetism, my strength would surely increase greatly. Could I surpass Luo Zhen?
If it's possible, then there's no need to be afraid...
She stared intently at Luo Zhen, put her hand on his shoulder, and leaned her face closer.
Just then, the door to the agency opened, and a white fluffy ball rushed in, shouting loudly:
"Mei, I found it..."
Suddenly, Kiana's voice stopped.

Volume 1: 049 - Yae Sakura and Kiana's Request
Today, Kiana's hand trembled, and Kiana's heart ached.
She couldn't believe her eyes.
Maybe I ate too many mushrooms and was hallucinating. Why did it seem like I saw Mei grab a man's shoulder and look like she wanted to kiss him?
"Mei, what are you doing?"
"It's nothing, I just noticed Luo Zhen had some dust on his shoulder, so I was just patting it off for him."
Raiden Mei remained outwardly calm, but inwardly she was extremely embarrassed.
Once Kiana interrupted him, the courage that Doro had gained from Orange vanished.
"So this is ah."
Kiana believed it, or rather, she had no choice but to believe the explanation.
We can't possibly suspect that Mei and Luo Zhen are having an affair, can we? Hahahaha.
Raiden Mei asked gently, "Kiana, is something the matter?"
"Yes!"
Kiana recalled her initial reason for coming here: "I met a pink-haired fox-eared priestess who said she was looking for a terrifying giant fox named Hishigoro and a black box that was very dangerous."
"A big fox?"
This reminded Raiden Mei of what Luo Zhen had dug up in Changkong City, when Kiana was still trimming the giant fox's feet.
The two looked at Luo Zhen, who nodded: "It's the fox I tamed. If I'm not mistaken, that shrine maiden should be called Yae Sakura."
"Yes, yes, that's the name."
Kiana asked, "Do you know her?"
"I only know her."
Luo Zhen said, "It's just a trivial intelligence gathering technique. Yae Sakura, the shrine maiden of Yae Village five hundred years ago, and also the last shrine maiden, was forced to sacrifice her own sister."
"Later, under the influence of the Black Box's Higokumaru, Yae Village was destroyed."
Luo Zhen briefly introduced Yae Sakura's background and showed her the Jizo Mitama at her waist. "This wine-shaped lumps are the black boxes. The black boxes were in an incomplete state. Now that I have completed them, they have become Jizo Mitama."
Kiana nodded, seemingly understanding, "Should I tell her?"
