During the busy time for Chen Yu, his apprentice was naturally not idling either.

After spending a considerable amount of time studying Spatial Magic, Misumi Mikoto finally managed to shrink the palm-sized Magic Crystal, which was sealed with Space Fragments, down to a size that could be embedded into a ring.

In fact, it wasn’t difficult, it’s just that initially Misumi Mikoto had been researching in the wrong direction.

Although called a Magic Crystal, it is not actually a kind of mineral crystal, but rather a type of Magic Power crystalline that appears in an environment with a high concentration of Magic Power.

It is called a Magic Crystal because it bears similarity to an actual crystal.

Due to its good Magic Power conductivity and capacity, in any magic civilization within the Multiverse, it is a very widely applied Magical Material.

Reducing the size of the Magic Crystal wasn’t as difficult as Misumi Mikoto had thought initially.

It required an adjustment to the Seal that Chen Yu had applied to it, because the essence of the Magic Crystal is still Magic Power.

Since the entire crystal is composed of Magic Power, what she actually needed to do was compress the Magic Power to increase the density of Magic Power contained within the Magic Crystal.

This would allow for the reduction of the Magic Crystal’s volume, rather than forcibly changing the crystal’s volume with Spatial Magic.

Of course, after spending a lot of time studying Spatial Magic, Misumi Mikoto actually had the capability to compress the Magic Crystal using Spatial Magic.

But after trying once, she abandoned this idea because the fine manipulation of Magic Power and the calculations of space required were far too high for her current abilities.

As for the Seal enclosed within the Magic Crystal, although it was a Demigod Level Seal applied by Chen Yu at the time, its essence was still the application of Magic Power.

Although Misumi Mikoto didn’t have the ability to change the Seal, Chen Yu hadn’t deliberately made things difficult for his apprentice when applying it.

As long as she found the right approach, she could reduce the size of the Seal by compressing the Magic Power.

“So this is the Space Ring you made?” Chen Yu asked as he looked at the exquisite platinum-colored ring he held in his palm.

After picking it up and playing with it for a bit, he returned it to Misumi Mikoto and gave his assessment, “The spatial structure is fairly stable, but there’s no protective incantation.

I can directly break it open from the outside, which is a problem.

Moreover, you haven’t combined the Space Fragments with the Valcan Alloy I gave you.

You’ve simply made the Valcan Alloy into the ring setting and then embedded the Magic Crystal, using the Valcan Alloy to inscribe the spatial incantation.

You haven’t fully utilized the material, which is another problem.”

Originally somewhat proud of herself, Misumi Mikoto’s face turned red with Chen Yu’s remarks.

She felt ashamed and lowered her head, her heart also filled with disappointment, feeling that despite her hard work, her teacher had not given her a single word of praise.

“Of course, as a novice, the fact that you managed to make the ring in such a short time is commendable.

You pass this time.

Leave the ring behind; I will help you refine it later.

As it is, it’s too rough.” Seeing Misumi Mikoto’s downcast appearance, Chen Yu smiled, still giving praise to his apprentice.

Upon hearing Chen Yu say that she had passed, Misumi Mikoto immediately looked up happily, her eyes wide with surprise.

Watching Misumi Mikoto’s excited expression, Chen Yu smiled but warned her, “Don’t get too happy just yet.

Although you’ve passed, you still have to prepare the Necromantic Space ritual yourself.

I can only provide you with the venue and the Ritual Altar I used originally, but all other things must be prepared by you, including the various materials needed for the ritual; these are all for you to ready.”

“Ah~!

I understand now, but those things are so many!

Can I ask someone to help me?” During this period, Misumi Mikoto had also researched the Necromantic Space ritual.

Hearing Chen Yu say this, she immediately lamented, as there was just too much to prepare.

However, facing his disciple’s complaints, Chen Yu shook his head, “No, you cannot ask ‘people’ to help.”

Chen Yu deliberately emphasized “people,” the meaning in his words was crystal clear.

Pointed out by her teacher like this, Misumi Mikoto realized what he meant but fell into a new frustration, “Even if I want to ask the dead for help, if I summon the Undead Servant, they wouldn’t know how to help, right?”

“Ordinary Undead Servants won’t work, but you can summon Skeleton Mages!” Chen Yu looked at his disciple’s inability to improvise and shook his head helplessly, “It’s true that humans cannot be used as materials, but you can still get ahold of an animal skeleton, right?

Use it as the summoning material and then summon two Skeleton Mages to work for you, isn’t that fine?”

“Don’t be limited by book knowledge; just because the books say to use human or intelligent beings’ skeletons to summon Skeleton Mages, you only think of using humans.

Can’t you use cattle, sheep, pigs, or dogs?

Although their intelligence is a bit lower, this is not insurmountable.

The casting ability and wisdom of a Skeleton Mage come from the soul shard you use; it doesn’t really matter what bones are used!”

Scolded by her teacher like this, Misumi Mikoto also felt ashamed and could only lower her head, not daring to look at Chen Yu.

Misumi Mikoto couldn’t help but reproach herself inwardly, why did she only think of using human corpses when the Book of Inheritance wrote about using human bodies as materials and never thought of using substitutes?

Could it be because she worked with corpses every day that she had developed a mental inertia?

Thinking this, Misumi Mikoto still apologized to her teacher and admitted her mistake.

Chen Yu did not blame her but shook his head and said to her, “It seems that I can’t continue to let you be ‘free-range’ anymore.

I will grant you access to my Mage Tower later.

You need a systematic education and training.”

Perhaps being very dissatisfied with Misumi Mikoto’s performance, or because he thought there was something wrong with his free-range teaching method, Chen Yu ultimately decided to give Misumi Mikoto a proper education for a while.

Hearing Chen Yu say he would systematically impart knowledge to her, Misumi Mikoto immediately became happy, but she still had some concerns and asked, “What about my job?

Should I take a long leave?

Or are you planning to teach me in your spare time outside of work?”

“I will give you a Puppet.

You control the Puppet to work during the day, and study with me in person,” Chen Yu said with a mischievous grin, giving Misumi Mikoto an answer she never expected.

Sure enough, hearing that she would control a Puppet to work while learning from Chen Yu in person, Misumi Mikoto opened her mouth wide in surprise, revealing a look of disbelief.
