Dimensional Codex System: I'm really not a cultist!

Chapter 1699: Chapter 1697: Are You My Master?! (Meow Meow Meow Evolving Rapidly!)

Actually, Fang Zheng knew why Emilia reacted more strongly than others because she is a Half-Elf, and in Lugnica, Half-Elves are just like Goblins, universally hated for no reason. Therefore, when she saw Goblins, Emilia instinctively grouped herself with them.

This is a case of not distinguishing right from wrong.

However, Fang Zheng also understood that merely talking would not make Emilia understand.

It’s not that Emilia is stupid, but the civilization level of this world is like this; philosophical and ideological theories have not developed to a higher level. In fact, Emilia’s current views on good and evil are similar to those from rural areas in Fang Zheng’s era. They have simple values and relatively honest views, but when faced with slightly complex issues, they freeze up.

Emilia is the same: kind, innocent, sensitive, but she lacks a rational and critical thinking mode. In fact, there’s no point in arguing with Emilia about whether Goblins are good or bad. Just look at her quarrel with Megumin; Emilia means that even if 99% of Goblins are bad, what if there’s 1% that’s good?

However, Megumin argues, better be safe than sorry! Are you willing to bet on that 1%? What if you lose the bet? If those little Goblins grow up and attack other villages, committing murder, would you take responsibility?

Emilia simply couldn’t accept this...that’s why they ended up arguing. To put it bluntly, both sides have their problems.

So Fang Zheng had to give them a lesson... yes, in political thought.

Even if you’re going to argue, it should be with reason and evidence; yelling like shrews is pointless.

For the girls, this kind of course was simply overwhelming, but they had to persist, especially Felt, who had it worse. Emilia, at least, had some foundation, while Felt was starting from scratch, and just learning to write was driving her crazy—not to mention Fang Zheng’s listed knowledge points...

”Brother, why do I feel like these things are such a mouthful? Is there any good method?”

”Yes, memorize them.”

”Memorize them?”

Upon hearing Fang Zheng, Felt was completely stunned.

”You mean... memorize this whole book...?”

”That’s right, there’s a saying in my hometown: read a book a hundred times, and its meaning will manifest. If you really don’t understand, just memorize it first... Anyway, you know the consequences of failing the exam.”

With these words, Fang Zheng walked away with a smile, leaving Felt standing in the hallway with a look of utter despair, as if she were about to head to the execution ground.

”Felt, what’s wrong?”

At this moment, Meiyin walked over with a book, looking at Felt curiously as she asked.

”Meiyin!!!”

Seeing Meiyin approaching, Felt hurriedly rushed over and hugged her tightly.

”I’m doomed! Brother wants me to memorize the entire book!”

”Huh? You haven’t memorized it yet?”

”You memorized it?”

”Yes.”

Faced with Felt’s inquiry, Meiyin nodded.

”The knowledge Mr. Fang Zheng taught, I’ve never learned before, and I find it interesting.”

Both Meiyin and Mel attended the classes. For Meiyin, Fang Zheng’s content was intriguing, especially since Fang Zheng specifically explained how her Papermaking Technique could improve societal productivity and production relationships. Previously, most skills in this world were passed down orally through generations. Because ordinary people couldn’t afford parchment or write, they couldn’t preserve knowledge.

But after Meiyin improved the Papermaking Technique, the flow of knowledge could be preserved and transported. For example, tips on ’Family Cooking Little Tricks,’ which might have been secret knowledge of royal chefs or tavern cooks, could be disseminated a thousand miles away after the popularization of paper, enhancing the culinary skills of the entire region.

Fang Zheng even told Meiyin that this might become the key to advancing civilization in this world. In a few hundred years, people might even write her into history books!

This thrilled Meiyin, and Fang Zheng’s explanations were straightforward and easy to understand. Plus, Meiyin loved reading, so being the youngest externally, she actually mastered the knowledge the fastest.

As for the others... many listened without really understanding. Of course, they didn’t need to become rulers, so it didn’t really matter if they learned or not.

However, Emilia and Felt were in a tough spot since they had to learn.

Forced to study political thought, failing the finals would spell disaster?

That’s really harsh.

Although they were complaining, both still gritted their teeth and studied. They knew these knowledge points were useful for becoming king. Unlike the other three candidates, Crusch was a Duke of the Karsten Family, a bonafide noble with a good systemic education background.

Precia and Anastasia are both cultured individuals, at least they don’t lack education.

However, Emilia grew up living in the village and didn’t receive any advanced education, whereas Felt is basically illiterate—she’s just finished getting rid of illiteracy!

If they don’t work hard, they might as well go back home to farm.

”Huff...”

Returning to his room, Fang Zheng stretched lazily, then opened his personal terminal, once again retrieving the adventure records of Lina Inverse and her group.

Thank heavens, Lina Inverse and the others have finally gathered together, so if Fang Zheng isn’t mistaken, the plot of the second part should start soon... Ah, if reality were like an animation, it would be great to skip a few episodes, fast forward, and only watch the important scenes.

But for now... he can only patiently wait.

After all, the adversary is the Golden Nightmare King!

Thinking about the true identity of the being he has to face, Fang Zheng instantly feels overwhelmed. The Golden Nightmare King is an opponent he has never faced before, let alone one whose true identity is corrupted by Chaos in the Order Core... If possible, Fang Zheng would prefer not to clash with the Golden Nightmare King.

This isn’t about the level of power; Fang Zheng has the Primordial Fire and the Fire of the Abyss, combined with the protagonist’s fate, fighting against a Chaos-corrupted Order Core shouldn’t be a problem. But the issue is when both sides go all out, this world is bound to be destroyed. That being said, Megumin and the others’ safety cannot be guaranteed. So if possible, Fang Zheng still hopes to solve this issue without causing conflict... Hmm?

Just as Fang Zheng was lying on the bed with a little kitten, intending to rest, he suddenly opened his eyes.

This is... someone is calling for him?

Wait a moment? This feeling is very similar to when Aya called for him in the World of the Immortal Sword, which means... prayer of ”Magical Girls” has reached the ears of this ”God of Magical Girls”?

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng closed his eyes, and soon, a nearly imperceptible voice came to his ear.

”Please... I’m begging you, answer my call!”

”Hmm... Hmm? Is this the aura of an Order Node?!”

Upon hearing this voice, Fang Zheng felt the Power of Order within his body faintly fluctuate. This feeling was familiar to him; it was a sign that the Power of Order sensed the aura of an Order Node!

What’s going on? Does it mean this time the Order Node Core isn’t the Golden Nightmare King? But no, the aura of this node is too weak... Whatever the case, let’s go and see first. Hmm... I currently can’t leave the castle, after all, someone needs to watch over here, and I don’t know what’s happening over there, rushing ahead might lead to trouble.

But as they wished upon the God of Magical Girls, then...

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng made a decision.

It’s you, Red Ponytail! Go forth!

Meanwhile, on the lush green lawn, a girl with pink long hair wearing a black cloak holds a Magic Wand, staring seriously ahead. Around her, a group of young people about the same age as the girl are gathered, looking at her with fearful and anxious eyes as she raises the Magic Wand in her hand.

”My servant who resides somewhere at the end of the universe! O holy, beautiful, and powerful Familiar Spirits! I summon you from my heart, respond to my guidance!”

Chanting spell text loudly, the pink-haired girl vigorously grasps the Magic Wand and swings it forward.

The next moment, a massive explosion occurred in front of them.

”Whoa!”

Everyone surrounding them was immediately knocked to the ground, and the pink-haired girl was also directly forced down by the rushing air currents.

”Cough, cough-cough, did it fail?”

While coughing, the girl looked ahead.

Then, she widened her eyes in surprise.

In front of her, through the smoke, a petite silhouette emerged. She has flame-like red twin-tails, wearing a strange style of white tight-fitting garment, holding a red greatsword, larger than herself. Her fiery red eyes possess a certain mysterious allure, making the pink-haired girl feel as if her breath and heartbeat were about to stop just by being stared at.

At that moment, everything in the world seemed to lose its color, turning black and white, with the red twin-tailed girl between the heavens and earth becoming the only radiant glow.

Like the blazing fire illuminating the night.

And the girl just stared at the pink-haired girl who fell in front of her and asked.

”I ask you, are you my MASTER?”
