"Huh?" Now it was Victor's turn to be stunned. He quickly closed his eyes and sensed it, and then he found out...
The other party really disappeared.
This familiar... canceled the spell itself? !
"Outrageous!"
Victor looked at his magic power which was already half depleted, and he had no choice but to summon the opponent out again. This time, the magic power was hardly reduced.
This means that as long as the opponent is not destroyed, the biggest cost of this ritual is actually the ritual itself, not the summoning of the familiar.
After understanding this, this time, he did not continue to bully the other party, but simply gave orders.
"Show me your abilities."
Although the little girl still had an angry look on her face, she could not disobey her master's orders after all, or rather, she had no intention of disobeying them.
She just let out a whoosh, flew in front of Victor, and waved her little hand.
A huge brown bear appeared in front of Victor, roaring and waving its claws at him.
Victor raised his eyebrows, stretched out his arm out of habit, and with a whoosh, his hand passed through the roaring figure of the brown bear.
phantom?
Victor nodded slightly. It was indeed a magic based on illusion.
"So, without using ritual spells, your basic ability is illusion?"
The little girl straightened her chest and nodded.
"So, what is the maximum impact?"
Victor continued to ask.
Hearing this, the little girl snorted softly, and Victor felt as if he had been slapped hard in the face. With a bang, he was slapped away by the brown bear.
"???"
The force was just right, enough to confuse Victor without damaging his brain. Victor leaned against the wall in a daze, looking at the arrogant little man who slowly sat on the brown bear's head, and instantly understood something.
"You can materialize the illusion for a short period of time? Hiss, the magic power consumption is not low..."
Seeing the little girl nod proudly again, Victor noticed that his magic power was almost at the bottom.
tsk...
The ability is good, but isn't the cost too high? It's just a bear?!
[In the current mysterious environment, even the most basic mysterious transformation requires a lot of magic power. ]
Suddenly, a thought came to Victor's mind, and he realized that it was the other party who was speaking: [If I don't make any preparations, it's better for me to maintain the minimum fairy ability, such as illusion, hypnosis, etc.]
"Fairy? Your prototype is a fairy?"
[Yes, isn’t this natural? ]
The other party tilted his head and said in confusion: [All of Alice's familiars are based on fairies. ]
Oh yeah, Moon Oil too...
Only then did Victor remember that the definition of fairy might not be equal to star fairy for these familiars.
It could also refer to those who have inherited the power of fairies.
"It's really interesting. Hmm, the familiar I created actually has its own consciousness. But that's normal... Since it's a gift from the future, then Yuzu must have been a powerful witch like her mother at that time."
"Will using the ritual reduce your consumption?"
[That's the theory, but at that time I would have to use all my strength to fulfill the wish.]
"The fulfillment of wishes is essentially the same as your ability, right?"
[Yes, so the bigger the wish you fulfill, the greater the cost will be. Master, remember not to be greedy.]
"Hmm...reasonable."
Victor thought for a while, and finally nodded with a smile: "Okay, that's all my questions, you can go back."
【OK. 】
The little fellow nodded obediently, and simply canceled the ritual himself, returning to the spiritual world somewhere unknown.
Victor was the only one left, looking at the remaining treasure chest, thinking slightly.
Well, it's not a bad technique but not a strong one either.
It's not bad because with sufficient preparation, three wishes should be quite useful if used in battle.
The reason why it is not considered strong is that, just think about it, it is impossible to directly wish for the death of another person.
Even the direct cause and effect of damage is very large. Not only does it consume a lot of magic power to activate it, but the opponent's own resistance to magic and mystery must also be taken into consideration. Therefore, the best way is to use it as an auxiliary.
For example, you can wish for the other person to be frozen, have a certain ability become ineffective, or even become weak.
Victor quickly figured out how to use this familiar, then opened his backpack again and took out the gift from Aozaki Orange.
"To be honest, if the rewards must come from their respective fields, then I would rather have an extra gift from Qingzi..."
"Because the only achievement of that idiot Aoko is probably magic."
"On the other hand, the scope of oranges is a bit too much, even a bit complicated."
Victor smiled and clicked "Use".
The next second, a new prompt popped up.
You have opened the gift of the legendary Aozaki Orange.
You obtained the item [Perfect Doll Victor Douglas].
"what?"
……
"Ah... yawn."
In front of the dim desk, the girl with long black hair slowly opened her eyes and raised her head. She yawned lazily and rubbed her eyes: "I dreamed of him again... But this dream was so strange."
"Magic...Golden Wolf..."
"Interesting, there are so many interesting things in the far east?"
“I just don’t know whether it’s true or not.”
Altluchi shook her head slightly, lowered her head, and reflected the information that was stained with a little saliva in her eyes——
"The library materials for a branch are still too poor, and the earliest records almost stop after the Age of Gods."
"Well, come to think of it, all the records related to the era before the Age of Gods have probably been transported to the headquarters and stored..."
Thinking of this, Artelucci simply closed the book, picked up Fu Fu who was sleeping soundly beside her, and walked out.
"Anyway, the general thread is clear now. We can slowly investigate other matters later."
"Um... Douglas..."
A smile appeared on her lips and she flew back towards the Duke of Cornwall's palace.
On the way, just as she yawned again and was bored, she suddenly saw a familiar figure.
"Huh? Victor? Why are you here?"
It was a rather quiet lunchtime market with not many residents coming and going. What was surprising was that the vendors who were trying hard to sell their goods ignored the girl who fell from the sky, while the few Dead Apostles and the officials with them had already lowered their heads in fear.
This is Cornwall today.
Dead Apostles and civilians are mixed together, and mystery and the ordinary coexist.
There was no spreading of fear, nor any growth of despair. In these days of crazy transformation of the Dead Apostles, things became even more fanatical.
Victor calls it a "mystery cult."
"Why can't I be here?"
Hearing the voice of his princess, Victor turned around quite naturally, revealing his pretty face.
He took a local delicacy, a kind of grilled fish with bread, chuckled as he ate it, and asked, "Do you want to eat it? This tastes better than I thought."
"I've always been very averse to fish."
Altluchi instinctively felt that something was wrong. She declined the food offered by Victor and looked at his face seriously.
It’s been a while since I saw Victor without his mask, and I feel a little uncomfortable.
Ok?
No mask?
At that moment, Arteluqi suddenly realized what was wrong. She blinked in shock and twitched her nose.
Without the mask, Victor no longer had the aura of a Dead Apostle?!
"Ok?"
Just as Arteluluqi was about to ask a question, Fufu, who had been drowsy in her arms, suddenly raised her head and said in dissatisfaction, "You actually used a dummy to deal with our Fufu!"
"Dummy?" Artluqi was slightly stunned, and then she saw that Victor's smile opposite her had deepened.
"Ha, I found it a little earlier than I thought."
He looked at the white beast in the girl's arms with a little surprise: "How did you find out?"
"I am very sensitive to humans, Fu." Hearing this, Fu Fu snorted proudly: "A fake one like this that has no human aura at all..."
Its words stopped abruptly, because he saw Victor put on the mask, and the corners of his mouth curled up: "Now what?"
"..."
Fu Fu hesitated for a few seconds, then said dejectedly, "I can't tell, Fu..."
"Well, that means if I wear the mask, even my human enemies won't be able to tell the difference... But, my true self needs this mask more than this body."
Victor chuckled and took off the mask again, looking at Altluci thoughtfully: "However, only the white beast could detect it. Altluci didn't notice it. Well, that is to say, it may not be hidden from some old monsters or fantasy species, but most of them can be dealt with. At least, they won't be able to detect the problem in a short time."
"So… what is this?"
Altluqi came back to her senses and frowned slightly - "Isn't this your real body?"
"Ah, yes."
Victor smiled and nodded, saying, "This is a puppet."
As he spoke, he raised his hand slightly, and magic circuits identical to his own instantly lit up on his arm: "A person who can use water and soil and most magic, but cannot use my strongest ability because he has no blood..."
"Magician puppet."
【Perfect Doll Victor Douglas】
Legends, puppets, consciousness transfer, advanced magic furnace, advanced combat instructions.
Description: This doll was specially made for a certain abominable guy by the top puppeteer Aozaki Touko. Dozens of rare cursed bodies were used and the perfect product cost more than tens of billions. When it was finally completed, even she couldn't help but want to take it for herself.
Chapter 92: Good News and Bad News
This is indeed a very precious doll.
Victor didn't know what kind of precious cursed body this puppet would cost, but according to the system's display, the upper limit of the puppet's attributes was actually around fifty. Even if Victor was not disturbed by the curse, he couldn't reach the upper limit of this puppet with all his strength.
In other words, this puppet is stronger than his real self...
Having the consciousness transfer function means that Victor can switch his consciousness back and forth between his body and the puppet at any time - when the consciousness is in the body, the puppet will automatically enter the subconscious standby mode.
artifact.
In Victor's opinion, the value of this doll far exceeds the value of the legendary reward, because it means that the identity problem that has troubled him for a long time has finally been solved.
On the other side, Altluchi fell into deep thought as she listened to Victor's words.
Doll?
Altluqi was slightly stunned. The memory of the dream in her mind was a little vague, but the related keywords suddenly triggered her reaction. She looked at "Victor" in front of her thoughtfully, and finally nodded slightly and hummed: "So, where did you dig this out from?"
In the beginning, Victor's mask used this excuse, but what about now?
She was now certain that Victor did have some secrets that she didn't know about.
