"Now, go tell them."
"Tell this to all the Dead Apostles in the Far East."
“They have one more option.”
She did not force anyone, but only those who were willing to follow her, those who were struggling to find her footsteps, those who did not want to continue wandering and being hunted, and those who longed to be protected.
So, come on.
"Let them go to England... to..."
Hmm? Where are we going?
Damn, here it comes again.
This slightly awkward and weird feeling of memory - I always feel like I have subconsciously overlooked something.
Artluchi was about to turn around and ask Stuart, but suddenly she felt a little bored and decided to give up.
That's it, just let them go to England first.
Artluqi thought boredly, even if it was just to have some more fun.
……
Victor and Kuonji Yuzu's shopping trip continues.
Until noon, Kuonji Youzhu was increasingly unable to understand why the other party could still maintain such high spirits. He looked at the advertising leaflets stuffed into his hands with great interest, while looking at the shops on the roadside and thinking about what to eat for lunch.
"You seem to enjoy the hustle and bustle."
Jiuyuan Temple Youzhu suddenly spoke.
"Yes." Victor heard this and turned back curiously and asked, "Is it wrong to like places with a little popularity?"
It is human nature to chase crowds and join in the fun.
"…But a magician shouldn't be like this."
"Huh?" Victor was slightly stunned and said with a smile: "Who told you that?"
"Reclusion is the norm for magicians." Kuonji Yuju calmly repeated this sentence, and Victor almost immediately thought of it. This is the first sentence in the magician's code. Well, he also saw it when he was a child...
"I've always felt that that description is not accurate enough." Hearing this, Victor replied disapprovingly: "Actually, it should be hermit."
"The magician's seclusion is actually aimed at ordinary people. As long as ordinary people can't discover the existence of magic, it will be fine."
Victor shook the oden skewers in his hand and chuckled, "Come to think of it, you must have known that there are so many magicians in the Clock Tower, right?"
"If tens of thousands of people study and live together, is that also called seclusion?"
"Even if it's seclusion, it's a lively seclusion, so it has nothing to do with my love of joining in the fun."
"..." Kuonji Yuzu was silent. Just as she was about to speak, she saw a fish ball placed in front of her.
"Hey... do you want to eat?"
Chapter 57: Time Disorder
When Aozaki Aoko came back, it was already evening and the sun was setting again.
Although students here usually finish their classes at around 2 ., additional club activities are also compulsory courses. In addition, Aozaki Aoko is a member of the student union, so she is often one of the last students to leave school.
This option, which is generally considered a plus point by ordinary people, is an absolute dissatisfaction for Youzhu in Jiuyuan Temple.
She believed that Aozaki Aoko had wasted a lot of time practicing magic in school. If Aozaki Aoko was not so concerned about ordinary people's affairs, her practice progress would definitely be at least twice as fast as it is now, and she would not have been unable to touch the edge of the so-called fifth law until now.
In this regard, Aozaki Aoko's original attitude was quite indifferent.
"I can always experience the life of a weird magician like my grandfather, but my life as an ordinary person is disappearing every day."
However, the return of Aozaki Touko brought this calm thought to an abrupt end, casting a shadow and anxiety over his heart.
Although she still fulfilled her responsibilities as a member of the student union, Aozaki Aoko, who only returned in the evening, was in a hurry and found the two of them as soon as possible.
After taking the disassembled doll from Victor's hand, Aozaki Aoko was silent for a long time and finally made a plan.
She requested.
She asks Victor to teach her the knowledge of the magic world and guide her in her magic training from now on, just like he did to Arizuma Kuonji.
It wasn't that she thought that Kuonji Yuju wasn't good enough, but Victor's fighting skills that almost killed her instantly, as well as his extremely rough way of releasing magic power, left an absolute impression on her.
What she urgently needs now is combat enhancement.
Jiuyuansi Youzhu had no objection to this, so Victor naturally agreed.
The days of waiting in the copy were too boring, and to be honest, apart from the spiritual veins and the fifth law, there was nothing else in Misaki City worth planning and preparing. Teaching Aozaki Aoko would also allow him to better try to get in touch with the fifth law, so why not do it?
……
When the third key figure in Victor's impression, that is, the character named Kusajuro, began to appear from Aozaki Aoko's mouth, Victor was slightly stunned when he suddenly realized it.
Oh, it turns out that more than a month has passed.
During this month, no one knew what Artluqi was busy with. No one knew whether she was not paying enough attention to the search for Aozaki Orange, or whether Aozaki Orange had indeed gone dormant because of that alarm. For more than a month, Victor did not receive any news related to Aozaki Orange.
If Shizuki Sojuro didn't show up again, he would almost forget the main quest of this dungeon...
However, although Aozaki Touko has not made any move for a long time, Kuonji Aritsu and Aozaki Aoko did not reject him like they rejected Shizuki Sojuro at the beginning of the original work - of course, the main reason is that he has a legal identity as a magician.
For a magician who travels to a different place on business, it is a very reasonable and common thing to stay in the residence of a local manager and carry out operations while being monitored.
What's more, Victor also paid for it - for the guidance of Aozaki Aoko.
Different from the gentle training method of Kuonji Arizuma who likes to let Aozaki Aoko deal with other magicians, Victor's guidance is as simple and crude as ever. It's very simple, just fight with me.
After all, he had fought with enemies all the way here, and he trained day and night in the training space. He knew very well that fighting against strong opponents was the fastest way to improve combat skills.
This made Aozaki Aoko doubt herself as she was abused and hit again and again, and she occasionally couldn't help but complain about what Victor was doing in the Magician's Association.
After all, the identity Victor gave was a student, but which student had such rich practical experience, almost as if the fighting instinct was engraved in his bones.
In response to her complaints, Victor just smiled and made up an excuse to get away with it.
Who said there wasn't one?
Aozaki Aoko may not know that the stupid and dull guy whom she often complains about, Shizuki Sojuro, who always responds with a serious "thank you" to her even when she is sarcastically mocking him, actually has extremely superb fighting skills behind his innocent and good-natured personality.
If Victor remembered correctly, that guy didn't know any magic or any mysteries, but in essence, he should be the same as the future Soichiro Kuzuki. He was obviously an ordinary person, but he came from a certain training organization and had trained assassination or fighting skills to the extreme.
Otherwise...can you defeat the Golden Wolf?
I don’t know why, maybe it’s because of the impression or the label, although Victor has never met the other person, he always feels that the other person’s personality... is somewhat similar to that of Emiya Shirou later.
Likewise, Aozaki Aoko and Toosaka Rin...
Well, Victor put this thought out of his mind and looked down at the magic base he had worked so hard to create.
This is something Victor has been working on these past few days.
You know, not only Aozaki Aoko is learning from him, but Victor, who believes in becoming stronger and having more skills, a better chance of survival, is also constantly seeking advice from Kuonji Arizuma.
Fairytale magic is supposedly a type of dream magic, a special system that can only be used by fairies and witches.
But for Victor, he has a system that can, firstly, ignore this condition. Secondly, even if he cannot learn it and cannot give fairy tales "mystery" like Kuonji Yuzu, he can use some fairy tale magic techniques to construct a pseudo-fairy tale magic foundation and use modern magic to form some low-level "nursery rhymes".
Although it is of little use, it is still a part of the skill after all. Once you master it, you may be able to use it somewhere in the future.
With this small pseudo-nursery rhyme in Victor's hand, which was based on the art of summoning spirits, a magic base that could summon small evil spirits was constructed. In Victor's skill bar, the icon called Fairy Tale Magic finally lit up.
Fairytale Magic Lv1.
This made Victor feel a little happier, because it meant that he could really learn the magic of the witch system.
It's just a pity that Jiuyuan Temple Yuju can't help him much in this regard. In her words, her fairy tales are almost all inherited from her mother. She herself is still in the stage of cultivation. Although she can also make many fairy tale magic principles, they are inherited from the witch bloodline.
Just like a tiger can hunt when it is born, an eagle can fly when it falls off a cliff, and a fish can swim when it is born.
This is an instinct engraved in our blood, and the principles can definitely be studied out, just like humans can invent airplanes by referring to the flying of birds.
But the thing is…she’s not there yet.
She hasn't even mastered how to use it yet, so how can she study the principles?
If she really wanted to learn, she could write him a letter of introduction when Victor left for the Clock Tower. After all, the most systematic and comprehensive cultivation knowledge for witches today was the most professional plant department controlled by her good friend, Lidel May Archelot.
Speaking of Lidel, Victor became silent.
Arizuma Kuonji's attitude towards him gradually improved, in large part because she seemed to have confirmed his identity from Lidel.
Once Kuonji Arizuma let down her guard, and because she had been responsible for monitoring Victor's actions during the day and teaching Aozaki Aoko at night, and the three of them became completely familiar with each other, her character of being cold on the outside but warm on the inside, yet extremely rational, was fully revealed.
This kind of person is actually very easy to get along with as long as you don't do anything bad to her.
But the question is, what did Lidel give back to Kuonji Yuzu? !
It was clearly agreed that they would help him investigate, but after receiving the reply, they only told Victor the result indifferently -
"Your family, Douglas, is not a family of witches."
Victor was confused and naturally puzzled: "Ah? The Clock Tower can really trace the so-called Douglas's last name?"
But the problem is, in his memory, his family is clearly an unknown... a small family with only a dozen generations and a history of magic of less than a thousand years.
Kuonji Yuzu did not answer his meaningless question which was nothing more than a complaint, but facing Victor's confusion, she actually felt a little strange.
Lidel didn't tell her much, just said that it was a long time ago and many things could not be verified.
But what can be concluded is that the surname Douglas has never had anything to do with the witch's bloodline since ancient times.
However, this surname seems to have some connection with witches. She is quite interested and is currently investigating it.
The second half of the words was naturally ignored by Kuonji Yuzu. She knew her friend's personality too well. To say that he was only enthusiastic for a short period of time would be an understatement.
Actually, think about it.
Kuonji Yuju quietly drank her tea, watching Victor get distracted.
All witches are female. Even if we continue to trace back, even if Victor inherited the witch's bloodline, it is from the maternal line, not Douglas from the paternal line.
But the problem is that although Westerners have the habit of adding both parents' surnames to their names, the clue about Victor H. Douglas's maternal surname is just an H... Who knows what it represents?
He doesn't even know it himself!
Well, he really didn't know.
Victor was also innocent. After he traveled through time, he had no memory of his mother.
He was raised by the new head of the family and was given the mark of magic since he was a child. He only had a few memories of his father teaching him magic, and he vaguely remembered that his mother seemed to have died shortly after giving birth to him... This was more in line with the characteristics of a witch.
Hiss, could it be that he is really the descendant of a witch?
But what kind of witch would be reduced to giving birth to a child for such a declining family? !
However, his confusion and doubt only lasted for a short while.
After all, his real cheat is his identity as a time traveler and the game system, not his own bloodline - not to mention that it is a bloodline that is impossible to awaken.
The pursuit of fairy tale magic is simply out of curiosity.
Come to think of it, he really wanted to go to the clock tower to take a look. It was a pity that it was a pilgrimage.
He was afraid that he would never be able to go to accept Lidel's invitation. As a dead apostle, even if he had a treasure that could conceal his aura, he dared not set foot in that area where the monarchs roamed everywhere and old monsters were as numerous as dogs. Didn't you see that Aozaki Aoko in later generations could only flee in embarrassment after causing trouble there?
The Jewel Master was the temporary clock tower, and the clock tower was just giving him face.
Thinking of this, Victor sighed and dispersed the magic base in his hand.
Level one fairy tale magic might be the limit of his life, what a pity.
As he was sighing, Victor suddenly felt the old-fashioned cell phone in his pocket vibrate. It was the signal of a text message.
And in this copy, there is only one person who will send him a text message.
Art Lucy.
"Hmm? Is there any more news over there?"
Victor was stunned for a moment and left a message to the familiar of Kuonji Yuzu. The familiar would accompany Aozaki Aoko tonight to continue the cleansing practice of "Wild Magician", so he was the only one at home now.
After spending a long time together, their wariness disappeared, and Youzhu didn't watch Victor so closely when it wasn't necessary.
At least going out occasionally isn't a problem at all.
Just come back and make up a report!
