Dawn of the Grey Tower

"Little monster? Isn't it a little devil?"

Russell frowned slightly. The mage knew something about demons and demons, so he had his own judgment after listening to Ata's account.

As for the little devil mentioned in his mouth, it can be understood as another classic image of the demons as opposed to those huge and destructive big demons. The little devil is considered to be a type of demon with weak limbs but full of maliciousness.

"Little devil can't set up spells that can make people illusion. They are located at a very low level in the demon's order. They are very inferior in intelligence and physical strength, and they don't have any spellcasting ability. Except for greed, those things don't have any. Anything impressive."

The cheese shook his head slightly. Most of Russell’s knowledge comes from books. After all, the devil’s call is a dangerous ritual, and the wizards in the City of Ten Thousand Laws do not desperately need powerful helpers like their counterparts in the secular world. For secular spellcasters, the things that need to be mastered the most, they don't use them frequently.

Especially the low-level demon like the little demon, there is no need to summon at all.

"Well, then what is the little monster you are talking about? This name seems to refer to many things. You say it is not a little demon. Is it another type of demon? Or is it something else?"

Russell didn't get too entangled with cheese on this issue, but he suddenly thought of something after asking this question, and hurriedly ran to the bookshelf to find paper and pens. These two things are found everywhere in the institute.

Cheese didn’t bother with the spy who started to rush to draw on paper. He believed that the other party’s behavior was for a reason, and he couldn’t help him before he stopped, so he turned to look at the other two and continued to explain. road,

"The little monster I'm talking about is not a demon. Strictly speaking, it is closer to a fairy, but it is not a fairy. This creature does come from the lower world, the realm where the demon lives, but you have to understand that there is not only Demons. I mean, although there are many types of demons, they are internally related, and little monsters are not in this relationship, so it is an independent species."

"And this does not mean that it is not dangerous. There is nothing from the lower world that is not dangerous. The air and water there are enough to kill ordinary people, and there are no safe creatures that can live there. But the little monsters are indeed. The more harmless category of the lower level, their minds are more mature than the lower level demons, they know how to deceive, use and lie, and they can create some illusions to fool their opponents. This is probably the same as the stick insects who disguise themselves as branches and will A butterfly with its wings pretending to be dead leaves is similar, except that it protects itself from being preyed by demons and other things. The problem is that this defense is sufficient to become a threatening weapon in another environment."

"But I remember that what I did draw back then was a magic circle for summoning demons. As you said, that thing is not a demon. How could he be summoned by me?"

The sweeper asked in confusion. After learning that the creature that was bothering him was not even a devil, he seemed to have all his strength taken out of his body. Only a small amount of curiosity and worries about what happened to him supported him to continue speaking.

"Summoning spells are very random. Before it is completed, we don’t know what will come out of the circle. Unless you have a specific summoning target and he responds. Your summon, otherwise it’s like putting your hand into the box and catching anything is possible. The general demon summoning spell will specify the range of the summon, that is, the demon of a specific class. But there are also some summoning spells. The simpler way to choose is to bring a creature directly from the lower space, or directly transfer a piece of land from the lower plane to the magic circle on a small scale. The spell you used back then is probably the latter kind."

Cheese talked about the familiar road in terms of Summoning the Devil. After all, there is a shortage of manpower in the Gray Tower, and many things do require the assistance of the devil to complete. The gray robes have long been accustomed to this way of life, and have little resistance to demons. On the contrary, some people are keen on the study of demonology.

However, the understanding of demons cannot satisfy the ultimate goal of these wizards, so among the many gray robes, there is no one who really conducts research on the following planes or demons as the subject of research.

Demonology is more like a tool they need to master in order to better study magic, similar to the ability of architects to master drawing.

"Then is he still there? I know that the devil cannot be completely wiped out in this world. I am not even sure whether he has left this world. Can you help me confirm that he is still pestering me?"

"In fact, strictly speaking, at the moment when the summoning circle is destroyed, there is no relationship between you and the things you summoned. So whether or not he is driven out of the world, you will not be affected by him. But. That is only in the sense of a contract. I understand your concerns. From your description, that little monster should have signed a contract with magical effect with someone, and the magic sword's spell happened to make him violate the contract. Terms."

Cheese said and touched his chin, he thought for a moment and said,

"I'm afraid I can't give you a clear answer. If he is really a devil, this matter will be easier to handle. But now, unless we get the content of the contract signed by him, no one can say that the price of breaching To drive out of this world, is it true death, or other less serious punishment. This is the price that the demon summons must bear. It is you who took the initiative to extend this hand to them, and then you want to take it back cleanly. It's not easy. In fact, it's not too bad. Now that you know the true face of that thing, those illusions are not enough to be a big problem anymore."

After listening to cheese's explanation, the man finally felt relieved. He stopped staying any longer, soon said goodbye to a few people, and hurriedly left the room.

As for whether he will make up for the regret five years ago and try to become a mage again, or do other things, that is not something they can know or be interested in.

But what is certain is that UU read www.uukanshu. com has been deceived and teased by little monsters in the past five years. Until this time, the utterly absurd feeling generated after piercing this illusion will make this person completely different from himself five years ago. Does this change lead to better or worse? This is probably more difficult to judge than his follow-up behavior.

"Although the little monster is not very capable, its cunning level is absolutely top-notch. It can hide here for five years without being discovered, and it can make that poor guy willingly enslaved by himself. Why would such a monster sign a contract with someone? A strong contract. It’s just a name, and it’s already necessary to pay such a high price to reveal it. Those who are silent, and those who can deal with demons, won’t have clean hands."

"Ah, I forgot to ask him what his name was, bad, so I can only refer to him by the person who was entangled by the little monster!" Atta suddenly realized that he hadn't asked the other person's name, and suddenly felt A little annoyed.

"It's okay, you didn't ask, and he didn't say. This shows that he doesn't really want to continue to have a relationship with you. For him, being surrounded by demons for five years is still a good excuse, but if it is only a little monster, Then the less people know about this, the better."

The cheese spread out and said.
