Chapter 66: Testing the Magic Eye’s Ability

Before returning home, Dimas removed his helmet, called out to Reiner, and handed him a bag of coins.

“Last time you already gave me over 20 gold coins.”

“What you received last time was payment and compensation, but this is the bounty for the necromancer.”

“Also, thank you for your trust.”

Reiner thought for a moment and accepted the coins.

He estimated that the necromancer’s staff could fetch a good price, and with the bounty, he had quite a bit of spare money on hand.

Dimas nodded, mounted his horse, and turned to leave, saying, “I’ll be off for now. See you next time.”

Reiner looked at the gold coins in his hand, decisively went to the bakery and bought a lot of white bread, then headed to the market to buy vegetables, fruits, and meat, planning to treat the two beast-eared girls well tonight.

By the time he got home, it was already evening.

Daisy watched as they carried all kinds of food and enthusiastically took it from them.

But she soon noticed that Nora’s eyes had changed.

“Your eyes…”

Nora froze for a moment, remembered Reiner’s words, laughed softly a few times, and chose to conceal the truth: “I don’t know how it happened, but my eyes suddenly changed color, and most importantly, I can see now!”

She closed her right eye, pointed at her bright left eye, and continued, “Look, Mom, not only is it not harmful, it’s even more beautiful.”

“As long as it doesn’t affect your health, it’s fine; you’re my child, and I love you no matter what,” Daisy said gently as she reached out to touch her ear.

After that, she didn’t ask any more questions and turned to continue carrying the food into the kitchen.

Reiner took Nora by the hand, led her into the room, and shut the doors and windows tightly.

Nora sat quietly on the edge of the bed, placing her left hand over her chest, and looked up at Reiner with hopeful eyes.

(I haven’t taken a bath yet; I sweated so much fighting monsters, and I smell awful…)

Nora carefully declined, “Master, not during the day.”

Reiner narrowed his eyes and said seriously, “What are you overthinking? I just want to test your Magic Eye ability.”

Nora’s face involuntarily flushed red.

Her thoughts drifted through, and she seemed a bit annoyed by it.

(Oh dear, why am I like this? My head is full of all those messy thoughts…)

Nora let out a long sigh.

Then Reiner saw her golden left eye flash, and in an instant, she completely vanished from the room.

However, the indent where she had been sitting on the bed’s edge remained.

“Nora?”

“I’m here.”

Reiner reached out to feel for her.

Although invisible, Nora was indeed right there.

Remarkable.

S Agility plus S Perception and the ability to go invisible… doesn’t that make her a top-tier assassin?

When he was a child, Reiner always fantasized about having the power of invisibility, and he never expected that this ability would fall into Nora’s hands.

“Amazing, so you used this to slip behind the necromancer, didn’t you?”

Nora reappeared and nodded firmly: “After I turned invisible, the skeletons couldn’t see me.”

“At that moment, I saw you were in increasing danger and couldn’t help, so in my panic I mysteriously turned invisible…”

Reiner looked at the dagger at her waist and got an idea.

If her equipment could turn invisible, did that mean she could make other people invisible as well?

“Can you take me with you?”

Nora blinked, took Reiner’s hand, and said, “I’ll give it a try.”

In an instant, Reiner’s body became transparent.

While invisible, his hearing seemed to be enhanced; he could even hear his own heartbeat.

It was indeed possible to make someone else invisible.

However, in this state, a roughly vague silhouette remained around them.

If you looked carefully, you could still be spotted.

Reiner let go of her hand, and Nora immediately returned to complete invisibility.

“How long can you stay invisible?”

Nora became visible once more.

It seemed this skill had no cooldown; she could use it whenever she wanted.

“I don’t know; I’ve only tried it for a short while.”

“Then from now until tonight, stay invisible and see how it goes, and if you feel any discomfort, stop immediately.”

Nora nodded and said, “Then I’ll go take a bath first, and after that I’ll stay invisible.”

“Okay, I’ll bring you dinner in a bit.”

Just as Nora went to take a bath, someone knocked on the door.

Reiner opened the door and found Anna standing there.

She stood at the door holding an especially thin grimoire and said, “I brought you the Wind Grimoire; teach me that kind of magic.”

“Let me take a look,” Reiner said as he took the book and skimmed through it.

The book contained very few wind magic spells, just a handful; it was nowhere near Junice’s two grimoires or Reiner’s own earth magic tome.

“So few…”

Anna leaned in and flirted, “Oh come on, even if there are only a few, once I learn them well they’ll be powerful. Teach me, Reiner.”

“If that doesn’t work, I’ll make it up to you in other ways… food brought to my lips shouldn’t go to waste…”

Before she finished speaking, Reiner heard a voice.

Martina: (What a shameless woman!)

He turned and saw Martina peeking her head out of the bedroom, spying on the two of them.

The moment her eyes met Reiner’s, she slowly withdrew her head.

Seeing Anna’s longing gaze and in the spirit of friendship, he slowly said, “Alright, let me teach you properly.”

Reiner roughly explained the principles, and Anna suddenly realized everything.

She ran to the door in high spirits and said, “Then I’ll head back now; I’ll come find you again in a while.”

“Do you need a deposit? After all, it’s valuable,” Reiner asked casually.

Anna glanced back, shrugged indifferently, and said, “No need, doesn’t matter.”

“Alright, goodbye,” Reiner said cheerfully as they parted.

Tomorrow he was determined to study it thoroughly.

He decided to set aside earth magic for now and give priority to learning wind magic.

Before long, it was deep into the night.

Nora still lay motionless on the bed.

Reiner sat on the edge of the bed and poked Nora lying there with his finger.

“How are things going?”

Nora answered softly, “I don’t feel anything special; it’s just the same as usual.”

Reiner climbed into the warm covers and gently embraced the invisible Nora.

“Then your Magic Eye ability is too strong; Martina might not even be as good as you now.”

“Mm…”

Nora climbed onto Reiner and gently nuzzled his cheek.

It felt strange for her to do something like that while invisible.

But Nora was surprisingly soft.

Reiner suddenly felt a heat stir within him, and after hesitating a few times, he said, “Shall we test if you become visible when you’re hit?”

Nora asked in confusion, “How do we test that?”

Reiner fumbled for a moment and gently cupped her face.

Nora quickly understood what Reiner meant and softly replied, “Mm…”
