My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

Chapter 131: Chapter 131: Elemental Princess

Eren handed the worn out book to Yu Lin.

"This is a very special book. It's called 'The Art of Elemental Manipulation.' With this, you will learn not only how to control the basic elements but also how to combine them into powerful techniques."

Yu Lin carefully took the book, trying to not harm it in the slightest. Just from the name alone, she could see that this book wasn't simple.

The Library of Sect did not contain any skill books that were this old. And even if there were such books, they would have been rewritten in new books. The original would have been kept more securely.

Looking at the condition of the book, it became clear that Eren didn't get this from the library.

She was certain that he brought this book from outside. Was this the reason he left the sect? He went out to find a skill that was the most suitable for her?

"When you are not using the book, you can keep it in the storage ring." He gave the Asura Sect Master's storage ring to his disciple.

He had already taken most of the important things out of the ring, but he did leave some spirit stones in the ring for Yu Lin to use during her cultivation.

"That ring also contains the sect's Qi Breathing Method. I should have given you one on the first day itself, but some things happened and it has to be delayed."

"Give it a try, and I'm sure you would realize the intricacies of this skill. And if you have any questions, you can ask me tomorrow."

Eren patted Yu Lin's head and didn't stay there longer.

He left Yu Lin alone with the storage ring and flew towards his own house.

Yu Lin watched him leave, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

....

Eren entered his house and took off the Elder's robe.

For most Elders, this robe was very light. But his strength was still limited. Only he knew how heavy this robe truly was. Wearing it felt like carrying heavy weights on his shoulders.

He carefully placed the robe in his storage ring.

"It's truly hard being a teacher..." He rubbed his shoulders, feeling much more relaxed. "Should I get Ye Liang to massage my shoulders?"

"Hmm? Why are you looking at me like that?"

As Eren prepared to take a cold shower, he noticed Celeste looking at him.

"Are you wondering why I gave those things to Yu Lin?"

He didn't know why, but he truly felt like he was able to understand Celeste without her speaking a single word.

"You might not understand what I'm about to say. But that old book... It was eventually going to belong to her in the first place. I just changed a few small things in the progression."

Eren took his shirt off while vaguely explaining.

Yu Lin was an important ally of Ye Liang in the novel, so quite a lot of attention was paid to her as well.

That's why, there was an entire arc where Ye Liang and a few of his friends went against the Asura Sect. It was when Asura Sect Master's son was about to be killed by Ye Liang.

When checking his storage ring, Ye Liang was going to find that worn out book. He even tried learning it himself, only to fail. It was a skill that could only be learned by a woman after all.

After failing, he handed over the book to Yu Lin who mastered it. This also became her signature skill, making her known as the Elemental Princess in the Eastern Continent.

Unfortunately, he had already changed that part of the future and killed Asura Sect Master's son much earlier.

"I really thought that I was going to find this book in the young man's storage ring. Who would have thought it was still with his father. He probably didn't have time to give it to his son."

"But I still don't understand. It's a skill that men can't learn. Why would the Asura Sect Master even give this book to his son?"

"Since they are dead already, I suppose it's impossible to find answers. I should just prepare to tackle the changed future."

"Are you jealous?" Eren saw Celeste still looking at him.

He had given inheritance to his second disciple, the ancient skill book to his first disciple and the Crystalline Herb to his first disciple. But she didn't get the same care. All he gave her were a few cakes.

"I will find a suitable gift for you." He patted Celeste's head. "And it would be even more special than I have anyone else."

"Until then.." he paused briefly.

A smile spread on his lips while he waved his hand. "How about another cake?"

Celeste had been pouting until now. But the moment she saw the cake, her eyes lit up. Eren placed the cake on the table for Celeste to enjoy while he entered the shower.

"Yu Lin, huh. There's more to this girl than meets the eye, especially her mother," he mused quietly. "But for now, I'll focus on nurturing her potential."

....

Meanwhile, Zia had secluded herself in her private chamber, replaying Eren's alchemical process over and over.

Each time she watched, she uncovered new insights, new techniques that she had never considered before. Her admiration for Eren grew with each passing moment.

"This man... he's not just an alchemist. He's a prodigy," she whispered to herself. "I must learn more from him."

"I was planning to use the Crystalline Herb myself. But the chances of failure were higher. But if I get his help..."

Determined, Zia decided to seek Eren out the next day.

....

Back at the Frost Demon's quarters, Elder Li nursed his bruised ego and injured face. The humiliation he had endured was unlike anything he had ever experienced.

"Elder Ren," he spat the name with venom. "You will pay for this. I will find a way to bring you down."
