After a while, the door was suddenly opened with a creaking sound. The sound was very light, but it still startled Phoenix who was thinking.

He turned his head just in time to see Astoria walk in, dragging her suitcase.

Seeing this scene, Phoenix quickly jumped off the bed. Due to the big movement, he sprained his waist and couldn't help but gasp.

Astoria couldn't help but complain when she saw this:

"You just got out of the hospital and there's such a big commotion. You're still in a weak period!"

She walked quickly to the bedside, wanting to check on Phoenix.

Phoenix quickly waved his hand to indicate that he was fine. Astoria glared at Phoenix and said:

"Can't you be quiet for a while? Rest well and stop jumping around."

Sometimes, she really felt that Phoenix was like a little brother who constantly needed her care.

"It's okay. Although I can't use magic now, my physical fitness is still there."

Phoenix said with a smile, then attentively took the suitcase from Astoria's hand and prepared to put Astoria's belongings where they should be.

"Wait, what do you want to do?"

"Don't you know you can't touch girls' things casually?"

Astoria saw Phoenix trying to open the suitcase, and quickly held Phoenix's hand and asked vigilantly.

But Phoenix didn't realize this, and couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Why can't I touch it?"

Astoria's face instantly turned red, and she kept complaining in her heart:

"This bastard, I really don't know if he did it on purpose. Can she say that her underwear was in the suitcase?"

So Astoria slapped Phoenix's hand away and said seriously:

"Next, we need to set three rules!"

Phoenix looked at Astoria with a puzzled look and asked:

"Three rules? Okay, tell me!"

He wanted to hear what conditions Astoria would propose.

Astoria took a deep breath and said:

"First, I will move a bed over here, and you are not allowed to sleep in my bed without my permission. Second, you are not allowed to touch my things. Third, and most importantly, you are not allowed to ask why!"

Phoenix raised his eyebrows and said with a smile:

"The first two are fine, but the last one..."

Astoria widened her eyes and glared at Phoenix, as if she wanted to eat him alive.

Phoenix sighed helplessly and said:

"Okay, I promise you."

After saying this, he did not forget to make a joke:

"But if one day I can't help but break the agreement, don't blame me~"

Astoria was so angry that she almost fainted. She glared at Phoenix fiercely and turned to pack her luggage.

Phoenix stood there with a barely perceptible smile on his face.

Although he agreed readily on the surface, he was thinking in his heart that he must find an opportunity to secretly see what secrets were hidden in Astoria's suitcase.

He felt a little regretful that he couldn't sleep in the same bed with Astoria. But he thought that it should be okay to sneak over at night, right?

As for the three rules, those were agreed upon with Astoria. What does it have to do with Phoenix?

Astoria seemed to see through Phoenix's thoughts. She glared at him fiercely and said, "You'd better keep your word! Otherwise..."

She raised her fist, threateningly.

Phoenix quickly raised his hands in surrender and said, "I understand, Your Majesty!"

He decided to abide by these rules on the surface for the time being. After all, living under the same roof, they still had to respect each other's privacy.

But he believes that one day he will uncover the mystery of Astoria's suitcase.

As for the rest, Phoenix didn't take it seriously at all.

All he could think about now was how to spend quality time with Astoria and how to make her happy.

"Okay, let's go have breakfast first, we still have classes later."

Astoria looked at Phoenix and said softly.

Phoenix came back to his senses immediately after hearing Astoria's words, and said with a smile:

"Oh well."

Then he followed Astoria towards the restaurant obediently like a child.

Along the way, the two held hands, talking and laughing.

Phoenix felt that this was a great feeling, as if they had become an old couple and their life was full of warmth and sweetness.

After arriving at the restaurant, they found a quiet corner and sat down.

Phoenix ordered a large breakfast of fried eggs, bacon, bread and milk.

Astoria opted for a cup of coffee and some fruit.

Just as they were enjoying a delicious breakfast, Phoenix suddenly remembered something important.

He put down the cutlery in his hand, looked at Astoria seriously, and said:

"By the way, Astoria, I'll teach you Occlumency during this time."

Astoria's eyes lit up at the suggestion.

She had long wanted to learn this amazing magical skill, but had never found the right opportunity.

Now, Phoenix has offered to teach her, which makes her extremely excited.

"Really? Great! So when do we start learning?"

Astoria asked eagerly.

Phoenix smiled and replied:

"Of course, but you have to wait until you finish breakfast. After all, it's not pleasant to be hungry."

Astoria nodded in agreement. She quickly picked up the food in front of her and started eating.

While eating, he looked at Phoenix expectantly, as if hoping to learn the art of brain occlusion as soon as possible.

Phoenix felt a warm feeling well up in his heart as he looked at Astoria's adorable appearance.

He secretly vowed to protect the girl in front of him and not let anyone hurt her.

At the same time, he must also work hard to improve his own strength so as to better cope with the challenges he may encounter in the future.

After breakfast, Phoenix took Astoria to the library.

This is one of the quietest places in the school and is perfect for teaching.

Besides, there is still some time before class starts, and going to the classroom now would just mean sitting there, so I might as well teach Astoria the art of brain occlusion.

They found a secluded corner and sat down.

Phoenix pulled a book on Occlumency from his pocket and handed it to Astoria.

This book introduces the principles and techniques of brain block in detail and is very practical for beginners.

"This book contains the basic knowledge about Occlumency. You should read it first to understand its basic concepts. Then, I will explain to you the specific operation methods."

Phoenix said patiently.

Astoria took the book and began to read it carefully.

She found the contents of the book very profound and took some time to understand.

But she was not discouraged. Instead, she read every page carefully, trying to gain knowledge from it.

After a while, Astoria finally finished reading the entire book.

She looked up at Phoenix, curiosity glittering in her eyes.

"I've finished reading it, but I don't quite understand a lot of things in it..."

Astoria said somewhat frustrated.

Phoenix comforted her:

"It's okay. This knowledge is indeed quite complicated. Next, I will explain the key points to you in detail. As long as you study hard, you will soon be able to grasp the essence of brain occlumency."

Phoenix then began to explain the principles and techniques of Occlumency to Astoria.

He tells Astoria that Occlumency is a powerful defensive magic that prevents others from accessing one's thoughts and memories through methods such as mind reading or Legilimency.

Astoria listened with great interest and asked questions from time to time. Phoenix answered them one by one until she fully understood them.

Finally, Phoenix asked Astoria to close her eyes, focus, and try to enter a meditative state.

Astoria followed Phoenix's instructions, and gradually, she felt a wonderful sense of peace.

"Good, keep it like that. Now, imagine an invisible barrier surrounding your mind, blocking out all external distractions.

Phoenix said softly.

Astoria concentrated, trying to build this barrier in her mind.

Although it was a little difficult at first, she gradually mastered the essentials under Phoenix's guidance.

After some practice, Astoria successfully performed Occlumency.

She felt her thinking become clearer and her mind calmer.

"Great! You're doing great, Astoria. Keep it up and you'll become more and more proficient at Occlumency."

Phoenix said happily that he really didn't expect that his young wife was a genius and could learn the brain-blocking technique so quickly.

You know, some old wizards may never learn Occlumency in their entire lives, but Astoria learned it in just a short while.

It's really incredible that Phoenix is ​​truly happy for Astoria.

Astoria opened her eyes and a proud smile spread across her face.

She smiled at Phoenix and said, "Thank you, Phoenix. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to learn Occlumency so quickly."

Phoenix stroked Astoria's hair and said gently:

"You're welcome, dear. It's my duty and my honor to help you grow. If you have any questions in the future, you can always come to me."

"And if you really can't help but want to thank me, just give me a kiss!"
