The girl immediately stopped in her tracks. She turned around and looked at Mo Fan with wide eyes.

She was not trying to be cute. She was actually displeased by Mo Fan’s words.

“I thought you would understand her since you had stepped forward bravely to help her.” The girl’s tone had changed.

Mo Fan scratched his head with an awkward smile. It seemed like he had said something wrong.

“What are you two talking about outside? Come in,” Asha’ruiya’s voice came from inside the room.

The two went inside. The girl sensibly excused herself. However, she did not forget to give Mo Fan a strange look, as if she was trying to tell Mo Fan he had said something disrespectful.

“Are you instructing that girl? It’s shocking how fast her mood changes,” Mo Fan said glibly.

Mo Fan found himself inside a library. It was a round hall with books piled up high around the center. He could only see walls filled with books when he looked up.

There was a spinning staircase in the center. Asha’ruiya was walking down from it. She was wearing a simple dress and a pair of wedge heels.

She was also wearing a pair of cute silver-framed glasses which suited her small and attractive face.

“Aren’t the girls of her age the same? The Parthenon Temple is strict with its education, but everyone has their own beliefs and ideas,” Asha’ruiya replied.

“Did you hear it?” Mo Fan asked.

“What do you mean?” Asha’ruiya handed Mo Fan a pile of books.

Mo Fan kindly took the books from her. He was going to place them on a nearby couch, but he saw Asha’ruiya looking at him with a puzzled face.

Mo Fan was confused. What did he do wrong now?

“They are for you!” Asha’ruiya pointed at the books.

“So they are the gift you mentioned?” Mo Fan was surprised.

“Of course not, but shouldn’t you at least familiarize yourself with the characteristics of your magic Equipment?” Asha’ruiya said.

“What magic Equipment? Why would it have so many manuals?” Mo Fan was dumbfounded.

“You will soon find out. The forgemaster is on the way,” Asha’ruiya smiled. Her eyes were basically telling Mo Fan that he better finish reading all the books.

Mo Fan realized Asha’ruiya was really giving him something unusual, if even the manuals were already so thick!

He put the books away in his Space Bracelet. He was still bothered by the girl’s reaction. He could not help but ask, “Are you mad at me?”

“Why would I be?” Asha’ruiya knew what Mo Fan was asking.

“Just think of it as me trying to understand my competitors,” Mo Fan said.

“Can I assume you have some ulterior motives then?” Asha’ruiya asked.

Mo Fan was left speechless.

Any man would have ulterior motives toward a beautiful woman. In simple words, every man was the same as Tuis, but their approaches were different!

“Do you really mind the answer?” Asha’ruiya took off her glasses and asked when she did not hear a response from Mo Fan. “Is that why you don’t want to cross the line after so long?”

Mo Fan was about to explain himself when a knight came into the room.

The knight was wearing white armor. That was uncommon, especially for a place like the Parthenon Temple, which clearly distinguished the ranks and roles of its people.

He was holding a set of dark armor with a unique glow.

Several Silver Moon Knights were following him. They were holding pieces of armor, gauntlets, a helmet, a pair of magic wings, and a pair of boots.

They were all black. For some reason, Mo Fan found their material familiar.

“What do you think? Do they suit you?” Asha’ruiya asked.

“You made a full set of magic Equipment for me?” Mo Fan was shocked.

“No, I’m taking a piece of it, but the rest is yours,” Asha’ruiya said.

The knights put the magic Equipment down and left.

Mo Fan felt pampered. He had long heard Asha’ruiya was extremely rich. Her wealth easily exceeded the other two Saintesses.

Was she trying to provide for him?

The thought of being provided for by a wealthy, intelligent, and gorgeous Saintess was irresistible. Damn this evil society!

“Did you not notice?” Asha’ruiya asked when she saw Mo Fan’s reaction.

“I did. I gladly accept it,” Mo Fan nodded.

Asha’ruiya frowned. She did not understand what Mo Fan was saying.

“You really didn’t notice. These are a Black Dragon Helmet, Black Dragon Armor, Black Dragon Boots, Black Dragon Gauntlets, and Black Dragon Wings! Austin gave them to us,” Asha’ruiya declared loftily.

Mo Fan dropped his jaw.

A set of Black Dragon Armor?

Mo Fan clearly saw the Black Dragon Emperor being burned into nothing by his own breath!

Did the Black Dragon Emperor give Asha’ruiya his essence before he died?

Asha’ruiya pointed at the armor. “This armor is made of Black Dragon Scales and is immune to Elemental Magic to a certain degree. It’s immune to Elemental Spells below the level of a Forbidden Curse. It can also reduce the damage from Forbidden Curses!”

Mo Fan’s jaw dropped even more!

Immune to magic!

Immune to spells below the level of a Forbidden Curse!

Partially immune to Forbidden Curses!

Holy crap! Won’t that make me unbeatable?

Mo Fan finally understood why Asha’ruiya was looking at him like that.

He did not look as surprised at first as Asha’ruiya had expected. Asha’ruiya finally nodded with satisfaction when she saw his belated reaction.

“I’ll let you figure out the rest yourself. I won’t explain everything to you. I think you men find it more fun that way.” Asha’ruiya handed Mo Fan the magic Equipment. Her smile was gorgeous, like a goddess who had come to the mundane world with her blessing.

“Are you really giving them to me?” Mo Fan pointed at himself.

“I took Austin’s fangs and made myself a sword,” Asha’ruiya replied.

“So you have basically given me everything,” Mo Fan murmured.

Mo Fan was not stupid. The Black Dragon Emperor’s skin was not the only material needed to craft these top-grade equipment. The most important material was his soul!

The Black Dragon Emperor might be massive, but his remains were only enough to craft a single set of magic Equipment, since they had to inject the Black Dragon Emperor’s soul into the magic Equipment.

Even though they could make another set of magic Equipment with his remaining bones, scales, and fangs, it would not have the godly effect of being immune to magic!

There was only one real set of Black Dragon Magic Equipment, and it was not replicable.

It also meant Asha’ruiya had only taken the dragon fangs.

She had given the dragon horns, dragon scales, dragon claws, dragon wings, and dragon bones to him.

She had done a lot more than just provide for him!
