Chpater 3 : Shock

Feeling the sudden changes in Daniel's body, Evangeline's beautiful eyes widened immediately.

If there was anyone in the world who knew Daniel's body better than anyone else, it was definitely her.

During those three days and three nights, Evangeline had thoroughly explored every part of Daniel's body.

Completely, inside and out.

Before today, in Evangeline's eyes, Daniel's talent was above average, but nothing too extraordinary.

Simply having such talents wasn't enough to catch her attention.

What truly attracted her to Daniel was Daniel himself.

And of course… a few other things.

How could he have been so strong back then, despite having such weak qualifications?

Besides, his sudden improvement in talent was something that made her quite happy.

My dear disciple will be able to stay by my side even longer.

But aside from that…

"Did you understand?"

After a long silence, Evangeline looked at Daniel, not entirely convinced.

After all, she had only briefly explained the "Endless Heaven Sacred Texts" to him.

And during half of the lesson, her dear disciple had been lost in his thoughts, barely looking like he was listening.

Not to mention, something unknown happened in the middle that suddenly boosted his talents.

But Daniel's answer was beyond her expectations.

"Yes, I think I understand it all."

Daniel responded seriously, his expression showing no trace of dishonesty.

"Huh?"

"What did you just say? You actually understood it?!"

Evangeline grabbed Daniel's shoulders in shock.

At the same time, her face came so close that their noses almost touched.

At that moment, Daniel could clearly feel the warmth of his master's breath.

A sweet, intoxicating scent filled his nose—an enchanting mix of youthful fragrance and the soothing aura of a mature woman.

"Master, this is cheating!"

After a moment, Daniel raised an eyebrow proudly and said:

"Master, I told you—I understood it!"

Still feeling the warmth of Daniel's hands, Evangeline finally came to her senses.

At that moment, her gaze toward her dear disciple changed.

Did I just accept a monster as my student?

This was the "Endless Heaven Sacred Texts"—one of the hardest sacred scriptures in the world!

Even she, with her monstrous comprehension, had needed at least a full day to grasp it.

And yet, this boy had just learned it by listening?!

If learning sacred texts was this easy, then what the hell have I and the other geniuses been doing all this time?!

"Yeah, yeah… you really are my amazing disciple."

Evangeline chuckled, but her voice carried a hint of jealousy.

"You even seem familiar with Yin-Yang Harmony. I wonder how many women have fallen victim to your skills before me?"

Her words were filled with jealousy and even had a slightly cold tone.

This completely shattered Daniel's confidence.

Even though he had reincarnated, his past life was… painfully innocent.

For more than ten years, he had been drowning in schoolwork, solving useless physics and math equations.

Then, he became a corporate slave, never having time for anything else.

Ex-girlfriends? From where?!

In reality… his master was his first woman.

The moment this realization hit him, Daniel looked at his master with a slightly embarrassed expression.

Evangeline was no fool. The moment she saw Daniel's reaction, she immediately understood.

Daniel opened his mouth to say something, but she didn't let him.

"My dear disciple, you've been cultivating for a while now. Let me see how much you've progressed."

Evangeline took a step back, giving Daniel enough space.

She was very curious to see just how much he had grown after receiving her Yin Essence and all these recent boosts.

Hearing her words, Daniel was briefly surprised.

But then, he nodded and sat down cross-legged.

He silently chanted the sacred formula in his mind and began activating the "Endless Heaven Sacred Texts."

BOOM!

A massive surge of energy erupted, completely washing over Daniel's body.

At the same time, the surrounding plants rapidly grew, covering Daniel in a matter of seconds.

Seeing this scene, Evangeline covered her mouth in shock.

She knew that her disciple's talent had changed, but she never expected it to be this drastic.

Before this, he had only possessed the potential of a "Supreme"—which was barely worth mentioning in her eyes.

Don't get it wrong.

A Supreme-tier powerhouse in any academy, noble family, empire, or even major church would be considered an overlord-level existence.

Such people could build their own forces.

But to her, a Supreme-tier powerhouse was nothing but an insect.

However… now, she felt like Daniel's talent was almost catching up to her own!

The moment this thought crossed her mind, Evangeline nearly laughed out loud.

Who was she?

She was the greatest genius in this world's history!

Even in that place, her talent was always among the absolute best.

And now… this boy's talent was almost at her level?!

Could that be why…?

"Huh?!"

But what shocked her even more was what she saw next.

The Yin and Yang energy within Daniel's body continued to circulate, becoming purer and purer.

"How is this possible?! He just learned the 'Endless Heaven Sacred Texts' a moment ago! How is he already reaching perfection?!"

Yes.

The gradual stabilization of his Yin and Yang energy was a sign that he had already brought the technique to perfection.

"In half a day… he mastered a Heaven-tier mana cultivation technique?!"

"What kind of monstrous comprehension is this?!"

"I think… it took me a whole month to reach this level!"

Evangeline stared at Daniel in disbelief.

For the first time, she questioned her own life.

What… did I just witness?!

Was the "Sacred Text" she cultivated fake or something?!

As Evangeline was still frozen in shock, Daniel clenched his fists and softly whispered:

"Master… please don't leave."

Hearing this, Evangeline's delicate body trembled.

But she did not respond.

Seeing her silence, Daniel sighed.

Unfortunately, this was a law of the world.

Even with all her power, his master could not break it.
