In the darkness of the night, three figures were seen confronting each other.
A man was sitting on top of a tall building with his legs crossed, and below him were two blurry figures that could not be seen clearly.
But it doesn't matter.
Victor was stunned on the spot, because the figure upstairs was quite clear.
That burgundy hair, that intellectual, arrogant face, and that condescending look.
"Cangqi...Orange?"
……
Please give me a leave, I have a high fever.
As the title says, I caught a cold and worked all night but only wrote half a chapter and couldn’t hold on any longer.
I felt dizzy and could lie on the table and be distracted for half an hour thinking about the plot.
Moreover, my cheeks are inflamed and it hurts when I eat.
Please take a day. You should feel better tomorrow after taking the medicine.
Make up as much as possible.

Another hundred words are required…?
Chapter 53: Night of the Magician
[Instance: Night of the Magician]:
Requirements for completing the dungeon: Defeat Aozaki Touko and peek into the secret of the fifth law.
Failure to clear the level: Death of oneself, death of Aozaki Aoko/Kuonji Yuzu, full involvement of the Church/Magician's Association, and mediation for more than seven days.
Dungeon rewards: Legendary Puppet Master's Gift, Legendary Witch's Gift, Legendary Time Traveler's Gift, randomly obtained, 1~2 depending on the completion of the dungeon.
Talent points, experience and other rewards.
……
The daytime sunlight shone on the quiet corridor, and Victor stood at the door and fell into a long-lost silence.
If the reference of the previous copy is not random, then the character on the cover is generally the main character of the copy, for example, the cover of the previous copy is Thor.
So, this time the copy...
Magician's Night?
Another parallel world?
No! Where is my original god?
How can I be such a big original god?!
I have already prepared Stulut's principle of [Eternity] and was ready to have a good exchange with the God of Eternity, but you told me that not only the copy has changed, but also the world has changed?!
Victor touched his nose dejectedly. The copy of the Type-Moon world was actually good. At least, it could be confirmed that the abilities of Altluchi and Stulut would not be suppressed.
Even in the dungeon, he should be able to walk sideways.
He equipped the card and checked his backpack and his own status.
After confirming that everything was OK, I took a deep breath and clicked...
Copy, start!
……
In a library somewhere, a magician has turned into a confused freshman, slumped outside the door, watching Artelucci frantically selecting book after book, then placing them on the table beside her and actually reading them.
After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly felt dazed.
The world of dreams reappears.
……
The land of the far east.
Misaki City.
In the slightly quiet house on the hillside, a dark-skinned girl sat quietly on the sofa, making a cup of black tea very patiently.
At one side, a girl in a college uniform was muttering with a hint of dissatisfaction, complaining about the recent increase in workload.
"Really? There are more and more magicians recently. It has seriously affected my club activities in the student union."
"Youzhu, were there so many before?"
"You just haven't taken action for a few days."
"It's really unreasonable. There aren't that many magicians in the world, right? Why do you want to die so much?"
"If it really doesn't work, I might as well ask the Magicians Association to send a manager..."
Aozaki Aoko spoke and complained bit by bit, but the tea-making girl called Arizuma remained silent.
She patiently poured out the first brew of tea, then gently closed the lid of the teapot and carefully poured the black tea into her cup. Then she raised her head and uttered a very clear voice: "The Aozaki family is the administrator of Misaki City."
"Those who like to die are all wild magicians. Most of them are just desperate. Regular magicians rarely come to such remote places."
"There weren't many before. The title of the Fifth Magician was very useful. But after your grandfather passed away, the new Fifth Magician has not yet taken office. That's why so many magicians want to make a desperate effort and covet the spiritual vein here."
"as well as."
She silently sipped the black tea, and finally a trace of imperceptible relaxation appeared on her expressionless face. She turned her head and looked at Aozaki Aoko and said, "Your practice is on the right track. I will completely hand over the responsibility of cleaning up this city to you..."
"Ah? Spare me..."
"Your first priority is to be a magician, Aoko." Kuonji Yuju said quietly, "It does not make any sense for you to indulge in worldly activities."
"But……"
It's really boring, with magicians fighting every day and living a weird life just like my grandfather's in my memory - Aozaki Aoko was about to refute, but immediately swallowed her words silently.
Well, never mind, but this was the path she had chosen and she gladly accepted it.
"Come to think of it, it seems like there's another magician invading—"
Aozaki Aoko looked out the window, stretched lazily and stood up, revealing her straight legs and slender waist. The magic alert of the entire Misaki City was covered by the spiritual vein array controlled by the Aozaki family, so as long as magic was used in Misaki City, it would basically be impossible to hide it from the attention of the Aozaki family.
Now, this right is in her hands. From the initial curiosity and fun, it has become like an alarm clock urging her to punch in for work.
However, Aozaki Aoko's personality is relatively confident and optimistic.
Even with such a complicated task, I believe I can do it well.
Thinking of this, Aozaki Aoko's mood rarely improved. She quickly put on her boots, waved to Youzhu, and rushed out.
Behind her, Kuonji Yuzu silently put down the tea in her hand.
stood up.
……
The sun had not yet completely set, but it was close to setting, with only a tiny bit of light left.
The entire Misaki City is more like a secluded town than a city.
The red sunset painted the street, and beneath a red telephone booth, a man covered in blood was lying on the ground in fear, crawling desperately.
He was a wild magician who was reckless and attempted to attack the three people.
Behind him, Altluchi, with an indifferent look on her face, was walking towards him step by step, as if she was looking at a stink bug.
This was the first time Victor saw Altluchi bite someone.
In other words, Altluki's "biting" is not a crude act of sucking blood like ordinary Dead Apostles, but a more elegant and more in line with the "contract" act of granting power.
Even though it is compulsory, a compulsory contract is still a contract.
This is in line with the spirit of the contract.
But Altluqi was actually quite dissatisfied. She did not like to make a "contract" with a magician she was not interested in. Even outside the copy, when she went to help Victor execute the plan and actively convert ordinary people and magicians, she would try her best to find the one she was interested in.
Now, under Victor's order, she chose to carry it out even though she was reluctant.
And Victor also more or less understood the mechanism of the dungeon team system.
To put it bluntly, it is a bit similar to the Master and Servant of the Holy Grail system, but it is not a compulsory constraint like the Command Spell. Instead, it will subconsciously make everyone regard him as a leader.
As for teammates, they will completely retain their own positions, personalities and ideas just like followers. Although they subconsciously assume that Victor is the leader, once they encounter something they are extremely unwilling to do, Victor will have no way to force the other party to carry it out.
As expected, if that's the case, then choosing teammates will also be very important in future dungeons...
For example, in a lawful world, you can't choose teammates from the chaotic camp...
Victor thought so and watched the magician transform in wailing. He seemed to still have his sanity, but looked quite painful.
Obviously, the opponent still has some talent. Although some of his memories are incomplete, he has directly skipped the first four most useless and trashy stages of the Dead Apostles.
But it's of no use.
This transformation is just a small experiment. It is better to just humanely destroy this scum who attacks everyone without saying a word.
There is a restriction in the copy that if the Magician's Guild/Church intervenes, or the mediation lasts for more than seven days, it will be considered a failure, so Victor does not intend to be too arrogant.
The most important thing is the second point of the copy mission requirement, which is also the only difficulty.
Peep at the fifth method on Aozaki Aoko.
If it was just the first point, defeating Aozaki Touko, it would be a very easy task. All we had to do was let Artluci and Sturlut crush her all the way.
At this time, Aozaki Touko had not yet gone to the Clock Tower for further studies, and had not even been designated to be sealed - in Victor's words, it was almost the same as his current heyday, at best he was at the level of a first-rate magician, and was far from the "top" level.
Besides, to be honest, Victor wasn't a fanatical otaku in his previous life after all.
He knew Type-Moon because of the popularity of the Fate series, such as Magus Night... If it weren't for the copy, he wouldn't even remember that such a thing existed.
He only knew the general plot and background, which made him a little passive.
It's not even as enjoyable as the O God World...
Well, anyway, it's always better to be cautious and take one step at a time.
There were rapid fluctuations of magic power coming from not far away on the map. Artluqi raised her head boredly, looked at Victor, curled her lips, and finally snapped her fingers in dissatisfaction.
The next second, she and Stuart were slowly swallowed by the darkness and completely disappeared from the street, leaving Victor alone.
This was the order Victor gave at the beginning.
Victor’s identity is human.
……
As soon as Aozaki Aoko arrived at the scene, she saw a young man wearing a mask of defeat stepping on another person's head with a cold blade emitting a cold aura in his hand. In a hurry, she waved her hand and directly blasted over with a magic beam as thick as a fist.
Victor didn't even try to dodge, and the magic beam that was deliberately deflected passed right past him.
He raised his head and looked at the figure coming at him quickly.
"It's not a good habit to just attack someone right away."
"Who are you...let that person go first."
Aozaki Aoko frowned, looking at the other person's figure. The confidence that he didn't even try to hide made the girl, who had just started practicing for less than two years, a little shocked and... alert for a moment.
Misaki City is a remote place, and it is a remote place in the already remote Far East.
Even though she had been training for two years and had killed more than a dozen magicians and possessed people, the other party's unhurried tone and silent figure... This was the first time she had seen a magician who gave her and her master, Kuonji Yuzu, the same feeling.
"Human?" Victor was slightly stunned by the other party's words, and then he said helplessly: "You call this thing a human?"
Victor frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed.
Frankly speaking, he originally wanted to use this newly converted Dead Apostle as a token of his allegiance, to take the opportunity to show his position to Aozaki Aoko and Kuonji Arizuma.
He really didn't expect that at this time, Aozaki Aoko couldn't even distinguish the most basic aura of Dead Apostles -
Aozaki Aoko during her weak period?
That would be easier to handle, because her lack of knowledge of magic meant that she would be easier to fool, but Kuonji Yuzu might be more troublesome.
