Magician in Type-Moon

As if sensing Hansa's confusion, Matou Ike said calmly:

"Of course I'm saying this to myself. After all, these guys have caused a ton of trouble over something as trivial as summoning a Heroic Spirit, and they've even ruined my vacation. I only wanted to get a pair of Mystic Eyes here and leave in the first place."

Matou Ike closed her eyes, as if she were longing for something.

"Because of you guys, my 'normal daily life' ended so abruptly. Of course, I need to sort out my thoughts and get revenge on you one by one, right?"

"Ha, so you're this kind of person? That's really something..."

Before he could finish speaking, his attention was drawn to Matou Ike.

A large amount of magic surged out from his body, compressing and releasing the magic around the grave and on its foundation.

As the dense, visible magical mist slowly spread.

Magic can be broadly divided into two types.

A small source born from the magician's body.

The great source that fills the atmosphere.

But this cemetery is now a land of magic, filled with the small source of power extracted from the magician before us.

"What are you trying to do? If you use magic like this, even if your magic circuits are excellent, they might be burned away."

When Hansa asked a question, Matou Ike simply waved his hand.

"Magic is something that can be replenished once it's used up, right?"

Chapter 328 The Garden of Sinners (Part 9)

Let's go back in time a little further.

That is, the time when Aozaki Touko and Ryougi Shiki met in the Forest of the Sea.

Having just received the mission instructions from Matouchi's recording, Orange immediately pulled her backpack to her front, her sharp eyes scanning the various materials inside.

The traces left by Matou Pond are complex and intricate, with densely interwoven runes that resemble a spider web wrapped around it.

"Looks like this guy is pretty meticulous," Orange murmured.

He then selected several pieces of material, took out the carving knife that puppeteers always carry, and began to carve runes on them one by one.

Ryougi Shiki, who was helping Orange fend off the relentless onslaught from the front, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Orange, who had been dawdling for ages, finally start working.

Ok?

Wait a minute, something seems off.

Ryougi Shiki glanced at a fragment of an antique that Touko had just processed, and then blurted out:

"Hey, hey, hey, didn't Matou tell you to carve those Laguz runes on these things? What are you doing now?!"

Although Ryougi Shiki knows nothing about magic, after being taught and educated by Touko and Matou Ike for so long, she can still distinguish the patterns of runes.

Right now, Orange isn't following the initial agreement to engrave the required runes.

"You're really impatient, this isn't like you, Ryougi."

Orange glanced up at the fierce battle between Ryougi Shiki and the others, then focused her attention on the task at hand.

"Come on, you deal with these monsters. You'd be just as anxious, wouldn't you?"

Ryougi Shiki said irritably, and then a cerulean light shone from her eyes.

After being enhanced by the orange, its body surged into the countless tree spirit vines at a speed beyond human limits.

Ryougi Shiki was indeed in a bit of a hurry at this moment.

Because the tree spirits we are facing now, catalyzed by the Fuhai Forest, are all beings that possess divinity.

Everything has its flaws.

While perfect objects do not exist, every living being dreams of approaching perfection.

And the most ideal beings in the world are undoubtedly gods.

Creatures that possess divinity are, in an individual sense, products that are inclined towards the divine.

If one wants to see the line of death of such a thing in an instant, Ryougi Shiki would have to put her brain into overload.

According to Matou Ike, her Mystic Eyes of Death Perception are something that tends towards balance, and do not emphasize any one aspect.

Biological level 7, non-biological level 7, even the concept is level 7.

This allows her to thrive in any situation.

However, when the battles she faces are too focused on one particular aspect, and given that she is currently facing multiple enemies, Ryougi Shiki, who has not yet fully explored the potential of this body, feels powerless.

Although Ryougi Shiki is in a bit of a hurry, the Nine-Character Technique in her hand is incredibly steady.

Each strike precisely cleaved across the fleeting lines of light that flashed before his eyes.

At the same time, Orange stopped the carving knife that was constantly sliding in her hand.

Rune magic.

Aozaki Touko, a peerless puppeteer and rune user, is someone who can complete the lost runes.

How could you possibly carve runes so simply with a carving knife?

This is the magic material that Matou Ike prepared for her that best suits runes, so it must be used with great care!

The runes she had just inscribed at her feet were Kenaz (creativity and inspiration), with Jera (cycle and harvest), Berkana (fertility and growth), and Perthro (destiny and mystery) inscribed on either side.

The cycle repeats itself, and its number is three.

The characteristic of this technique is that inscribing runes is very time-consuming, but once inscribed, it only requires a single step of injecting magic to complete.

The time delay from generating magic to constructing the spell is almost zero.

Orange smiled and waved her fingers gently.

The orange itself once covered the park with the same rune, stealing the night's essence from a piece of land.

Compared to then, she believes her magic tricks have become much more sloppy now.

Ultimately, magic is about obsession, provided you replace yourself with the gears needed for magic.

Although the clock tower underwent renovations, if those old friends were still alive, they would probably sigh and say, "You have fallen."

Even so, it's enough for now.

Because she has reached the level of creating runes using runes.

This is perhaps a place that even the rune masters of the Age of Gods could not reach.

“It repeats itself endlessly, and its number is three.”

"It begins with one, flourishes with two, and comes together with three."

A crimson aura of runes exploded from beneath Orange's feet, and the ancient fragments contained within the package rose into the air with a rhythmic surge.

"Laguz!"

At that moment, an impact invisible to the naked eye occurred.

It began to relentlessly attack the floating fragments, a result of Fu Hailin's ability to suppress and extract the Great Source.

Bang bang bang!

The loud bangs and explosions came like machine gun fire.

However, no sign of anxiety appeared on Orange's face.

She resembled a scientist focused on the results of an interesting experiment, a faint smile appearing on her damp cheeks.

"Liangyi, come here and cut those things down!"

Ryougi Shiki, who was charging forward with her sword, heard the shouts from behind and curled her lips.

Ryougi Shiki took a deep breath.

A relentless surge with almost no pauses

Ryougi Shiki's eyes snapped open.

It felt like there was fire burning in my brain.

But it's okay.

The hands holding the knife were raised, the speed so fast it was like a flash of light, and the knife, held high, was swung down even faster than before.

The instructions from Orange have been given, so all we need to do is follow them.

Behind them are ever-approaching threats from thorny brambles, vine-covered tree spirits, and divine monsters.

With only two hands and a sword, Ryougi Shiki simply couldn't manage everything.

But trust!

All you need to do is trust.

Orange needs her now, that's enough!

The next moment, a flash of light appeared.

All that could be heard was a "clang".

The chains of nothingness that stretched across the void snapped instantly.

"Hold on tight, Ryougi! We're about to take off!"

Orange's words followed one after another.

Before Ryougi Shiki could even sheathe her sword and get ready, a wrist had already wrapped around her waist.

Before anyone knew it, Orange had assembled a mechanical broom from the scattered spring parts on the ground.

"What do you want to do—"

"Haha, of course we have to reach the final spiritual vein point! Is there even a question? Liangyi, come and see how my unique 'Orange Trip' works!"

At some point, the circular craters created by the continuous battles had become densely filled with the same rune spell.

That is?
