My Otherworldly Shura Field

Chapter 27 Mind Reading

The two chatted for a whole morning and quickly became acquainted. Since Restia was still unconscious, Lucifer began to teach Emily the skill Lightning Flash when he had nothing else to do.

However, what nearly drove Lucifer to the brink of collapse was that lightning seemed to have been tailor-made for her, and Emily mastered it completely without her having to teach her.

In just over an hour, Emily became very skilled, striking with precision and hitting exactly where she pointed. What left Lucifer speechless was that this little girl had a stronger affinity with lightning than he did, and her attacks were even more powerful than his.

Looking at the shattered boulder fragments and scorched crater before him, Lucifer was filled with shame and embarrassment. It was truly a case of comparing oneself to others and feeling utterly ashamed.

He originally wanted to show off, but Emily slapped him in the face instead, making him a little embarrassed.

So he gave up on instructing Emily and instead asked her how to use the newly acquired skill, Mind Reading. Unlike his previous skills, Mind Reading seemed to be very special, and he didn't know how to use it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have shamelessly asked Emily for help.

However, when Emily learned from Lucifer that she could also use her mind-reading ability, she was stunned. Her two big, sapphire-like eyes widened in disbelief.

If Lucifer hadn't explained the whole story, she probably would have mistaken him for a god!

Anyway, they are now family, and she has obtained the powerful skill Lightning Flash. She did not refuse Lucifer's request to teach him and began to teach him how to use the skill Mind Reading.

But after half a day, Lucifer hadn't fully mastered it; he'd only grasped the basics. Was it because he lacked talent? The answer is definitely no, otherwise how could he have mastered the skills he acquired before without a teacher?

So the reason he couldn't fully master it might be because mind reading is quite unique compared to other skills. Of course, Lucifer didn't come away empty-handed. Although he couldn't reach Emily's level of complete control, he could still read other people's minds five out of ten times, which was already pretty good.

However, the skill of mind reading has a fatal weakness: it cannot read the minds of people with a higher level than the user. There are only two situations in which it can read the minds of people with a higher level than itself.

The first method is when the other party voluntarily opens their heart to you for you to read; the second method is when the target is unconscious and you can take advantage of the situation. There is no other way.

If you forcibly read the thoughts of someone of a higher level than yourself, you will inevitably suffer a backlash of power, which can result in serious injury or even death. Therefore, you must first determine the level of the target before using the mind-reading skill, otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable and you may suffer the consequences yourself.

And that's why the little girl is about to learn the secret that Lucifer is not only a vampire but also a soul traveler.

He hasn't even told Chris this secret yet, so why would he tell the little girl? Of course, who knows what will happen in the future? Maybe he'll tell them someday.

"boom!"

Just then, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck the mountain not far away. The lightning flashed and sparks flew, and its power was terrifying. The entire majestic mountain was split in two by the lightning, and the ground shook as if a major earthquake had occurred.

The monsters, large and small, living in the Monster Forest were terrified and fled in all directions, gripped by panic as if a catastrophe had struck.

Who else but Chris could have been the one to unleash such terrifying lightning? After acquiring the skills Lightning Flash and Ape Roar from Lucifer, she excitedly went to experiment on magical beasts.

Unexpectedly, she could unleash such power in such a short time. Indeed, the Vampire Queen's reputation is well-deserved; she is terrifying.

Lucifer could hardly believe it; it had even cleaved mountains in two! This was an incredible feat, capable of destroying everything in its path! It had truly reached the level of splitting mountains and cleaving rocks.

This filled Lucifer with longing, wondering when he could reach that level and then rule the world.

Of course, Lucifer did not copy the mind-reading skill he obtained from Emily to Chris. Her level was so high; if he let her get a mind-reading skill, how would he survive in the future? It would be no different from standing naked in front of her, with no privacy at all.

As for his unique skill, Blood Mark, since it is a skill that copies other skills, it cannot copy itself. Therefore, this skill can be said to be Lucifer's exclusive skill.

However, he forgot that Lacey had already mentioned Emily's special skill. Chris, who knew Lucifer well, would surely know that Lucifer had acquired the ability to read minds. The reason she didn't say it was because she disdained it. She was a high and mighty empress, proud and confident. She didn't need such a skill. Reading other people's minds would only make her feel disgusted. Who knew if the person she was using it would have wild thoughts?

"Wow! Sister Chris is so amazing! She even split a mountain in two! She's hundreds of times better than me!" Emily looked at the distant mountain that had been split open with longing.

Lucifer felt the same way. He believed that he would eventually reach the level of opening mountains. Chris was just a higher level than them. He reached out and patted Emily's head. "As for the skill Lightning Flash, I am not as good as your sister Chris. I am not even as good as you. Let's work hard together!"

"Yes, Emily will do her best." Emily nodded firmly. Since being reborn after yesterday's events, she has become more determined. She is no longer a weak little girl and has the ability to protect herself and others.

“By the way, your sister Chris is at a very high level. Don’t use mind reading on her, and don’t tell her that I can do it too. It’s our secret,” Lucifer continued.

"Okay, I understand." Although she didn't know why Lucifer was hiding it, she still nodded obediently, then tugged at Lucifer's sleeve like a curious child and asked, "Brother Lucifer, what level is Sister Chris now?"

“Hmm, I was level 30 before, and now it seems I’ve reached level 33,” Lucifer said after thinking for a moment.

Since acquiring some skills from him, Chris's level has increased, which makes him extremely envious. Leveling up is as easy as playing a game for her; it's simply unbearable for others.

"Wow! Sister Chris is level 33! That's amazing, even more amazing than Grandpa!" Emily's cherry-like mouth gaped open, speechless with shock and admiration.

By the way, Lucifer had already told her his level, and he also knew that Emily's level was 10.

He used to worship him, but now his idol has become Chris, which makes Lucifer feel a little jealous.
