 I've been in the library since I came home from the palace.

 But it's been hard for me to get up to the next level since I reached level 80.

 Jill has been accompanying me in my magic practice.

 Jill looked at me in disgust and sighed.

 I remembered Grandpa Will's words. You'll never be able to use magic again. .......

 As I was about to resume my magic practice, I remembered what Jill had said to me at the palace.

"Hey, Jill..."

"What?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


"Is a saint supposed to marry His Majesty the King?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


"That's what it said in the book."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 Jill said that and walked away.

 Oh, where is she going when she's talking to me .......

 Oh well. I need to get stronger.

 I focused on my magic practice.

 I take a slow breath and calm my mind.

 I imagine ...... myself as a lion.

 I was trying to master the magic of turning into an animal.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 You see, this is a unique magic of the dark magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 I honestly have no idea what the criteria are for the different types of magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 It's a waste of time to even think ...... about why transmutation magic is dark magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 Dark magic is still just a bunch of crap magic. I feel the malice of the administration.

 Don't worry, I can do it.

 Jill's voice broke my concentration instantly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 ......I'm still so immature as a bad girl to lose my concentration over something like this.

"Whoa! What's with the outfit!"

 Jill's body jerked for a moment and she marveled.

 Dressed?

 I walked over to the view of the figure next to the bookshelf.

 I could walk normally, nothing unusual about ...... this!

 I was astonished at my appearance.

 Is this what happens when you stop doing magic in the middle of the day?

 Only part of it was lion.

 I wonder if the pitch-black ears mean that the color of the hair becomes the color of the body hair.

 Still, they look too human. It just goes to show how bad my magic is.

 Jill tilts her head in puzzlement.

 That's right, there is no such thing as cosplay in this world.

 Jill is staring at me.

 I think she's so distracted by my ridiculous appearance that she can't hear me.

"Jill."

 I said this and broke the spell at the same time.

 Jill looked me in the eye.

 It's the worst. I never thought I'd hear that from Jill.

"Insensitive"? I'm aware of the fact that Duke-sama's feelings for me are romantic feelings. But if you're going to marry a saint, who am I to argue with you?"

 I said this in a lower voice than usual as I glared at Jill.

 I know I'm going to get blamed for being so angry with a younger guy, but bad girls have a temper.

 Jill told me that unabashedly.

 This is a big deal.

 If Duke and I get engaged, Liz will never listen to me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

 Because she loves the Duke, you know.

 She might stop confronting me and start ignoring me!
