When I traveled through time and became a player, I just wanted to commit suicide

Subaru Natsuki and Emilia came to the outside of the mansion together, preparing to rush to the place where Li Shanren and Roswaal were fighting.

However, just as they walked out of the mansion, a dazzling silver full moon slowly rose in the distance, and the bright white light it emitted even fell at Subaru Natsuki's feet.

"That is......"

Subaru Natsuki looked at the full moon in shock.

"It's the Moon Magic of the Holy Governor Church..." The great fairy Puck standing on Emilia's shoulder said solemnly, "Roswaal can't possibly master this magic."

What this means is that this moon is most likely closely related to Subaru Natsuki's "predecessor".

"What is the Holy Governor's Church?" Lai Yue Subaru couldn't help but ask.

"That's a sect that worships the Moon God. They mainly preach in the southern Kingdom of Jonia." Emilia whispered, "Sir Claude... are you a follower of the Holy Governor Church?"

Hearing this question, Subaru Natsuki choked slightly.

He knew very little about the affairs of his predecessors, and it could be said that he knew basically nothing.

Therefore, he had no way of answering this question and could only remain silent.

In the distance, within Roswaal's domain.

The border marquis, who had not met an opponent for a long time, looked up at the full moon hanging high in the sky. His eyes were not panicked, but rather quite interested in it.

"Being able to absorb other people's magic to strengthen yourself... With this level of magic, your status in the Holy Governor Church must be quite high."

After these words were spoken, the figure in the full moon did not respond.

"Okay - then let's try the power of your full moon." Roswaal smiled.

As soon as the words fell, the full moon flew towards Roswaal, carrying an ice-crystal spiral trail.

At the same time, a figure jumped down from the full moon and looked at the full moon with a slightly gloomy look.

The bright full moon slowly drifted towards Roswaal. Its initial speed was a little slow, but the closer it got, the faster it became, until it finally left a trail of afterimages in the sky.

Roswaal watched the full moon coming towards him, hovering in mid-air with a smile on his face. When it got close to him, he raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

"boom--!"

The next second, the full moon suddenly exploded. The enormous power brought about terrifying wind pressure, bending the trunks of the trees below.

Dazzling light filled Li Shanren's eyes.

A moment later, when the aftermath of the explosion passed, Roswaal had disappeared.

But his domain still exists.

"Oh--"

Just as Li Shanren was looking around for Roswaal's trace, a long tail sound sounded behind him, and a slender hand wearing a white glove patted his shoulder.

"Are you looking for me? Sir Claude——"

Li Shanren turned around suddenly.

Roswaal was almost sticking behind him, his clown makeup still showing a bright smile on his face.

Being able to approach him so silently, if Roswaal wanted to do something shady, I'm afraid... he wouldn't even have time to react.

Perhaps it is because pyroxene magic essentially requires the help of pyroxene to be cast, even with the staff in hand, the magic field cannot stop Li Shanren from casting pyroxene magic.

The two are definitely not part of the same system.

Although the Spirit Shield and the Golden Kite Shield can be driven by Runes, they still belong to the magic system of this world and will be affected by the domain of magic...

In short, within the range of Roswaal's magic, Li Shanren could no longer use these two protective magic tools.

In other words, once he encounters a Saint Silver-level magician, Li Shanren can only rely on the power system of the border area to fight the opponent with real swords and guns.

However, even though his various attributes have gradually improved, he still cannot be said to have mastered the power of the border area.

"Knowing" and "being proficient" are two different things.

For Li Shanren, the power system of the border area has the advantages of rapid growth, low difficulty in mastering, and a wide range of power, but it also has certain limitations.

These limitations can only be gradually eliminated if he masters and even gets proficient in more magic at the border areas.

Although the magic system of the Messiah Continent seemed inferior to the pyroxene magic of the border area in the early stage, it became more and more outrageous in the later stage.

The original Emerald-level all-round elemental shield had already opened Li Shanren's eyes. He was lucky enough to get a Spirit Shield Emerald Ring, which was able to barely make up for the gap with the Emerald-level magician in this aspect.

But faced with the magic domain of a Saint Silver-level magician, Li Shanren really couldn't figure out how to break this powerful supernatural power.

"That spell was really powerful—" Roswaal said with a smile, "but the trajectory was too obvious."

Li Shanren's face darkened.

Indeed, this is a shortcoming of the pyroxene magic system.

Most magic spells have obvious movement trajectories, which are fine when used against low- and medium-level enemies. However, once you encounter a high-level enemy, you may easily run into the embarrassing situation of not being able to hit the person.

Only the Night Demon possesses the ability of invisibility, allowing it to injure people silently.

But the only night magic he currently possesses is the surprise attack magic gravel, which can shoot an invisible magic gravel from behind the enemy, but its power is far from satisfactory.

It's okay to deal with ordinary enemies, but once you encounter a strong one, you won't be able to stand up to the challenge.

"I'm convinced. Let's go back to the mansion first. As agreed, I will tell you everything I know." Li Shanren sighed and walked away on his own.

"it is good--"

Rozsval drew out the last syllable, then he looked at Li Shanren's back and suddenly looked up at the sky.

In the sky, a waning moon was hanging there, watching everything quietly.

Roswaal narrowed his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

......

After witnessing Roswaal's strength, Li Shanren finally figured out his current strength.

Within the Emerald level, he does not need to fear anyone as he has the spiritual shield as protection, but once he faces a Holy Silver level transcendent, he will most likely be defeated.

Unless he can find a way to fight against the magic domain, it is better to run away if he encounters a strong man of this level.

After returning to the door of Roswaal's mansion, at the suggestion of Li Shanren, Subaru Natsuki swallowed a poison that was given to him in private and died on the spot.

As early as when he was in Byron Kingworth, Li Shanren anticipated that he might need to commit suicide to escape from some predicament in the future, so he prepared some poison that could kill himself instantly.

I just didn't expect that I hadn't used it yet, and it was given to Subaru Natsuki first.

After Subaru Natsuki's death, the world stopped again and time went back.

However, after this flashback, let’s not talk about how Li Shanren continued to repeat the previous reincarnation process.

Far to the south, in the Kingdom of Jonia, in the royal capital, in the Cathedral of the Holy Governor, the current Pope Gyaphis, who had just finished his daily prayers, suddenly received an oracle from the Moon Goddess.

There was only one short sentence on the oracle:

[A Moon Saint has been born in the north, welcome him back as soon as possible. ]

It also comes with two portraits and a specific location.

The portraits respectively depict an exotic young man with black hair and black eyes, and a bright full moon made up of magic power.

After receiving the oracle, the Pope attached great importance to it and immediately summoned Ludwig, the first knight of the church, and ordered him to lead an elite team to sneak into the Caesar Republic and bring back the saint.

On the other side, Li Shanren, who had completed all the procedures again, stepped into Roswaal's mansion for the third time.

After learning from the last reincarnation, Subaru Natsuki stayed there as a servant in the mansion this time and began to investigate the mysterious enemy who could use curses.

Li Shanren did not interfere too much. This time he entrusted the matter entirely to Lai Yue Subaru. He would only take action if Lai Yue Subaru was in danger.

On the first night at the mansion, Li Shanren, who had deeply realized the shortcomings of his own combat power from Roswaal, went to the border.

He returned to the Lienia region and looked for Tops, the magic teacher whom he had stood up for a long time.

If you want to deal with unconventional enemies, you must master unconventional magic.

After realizing that he was now just a slightly larger grasshopper in the Messiah Continent, Li Shanren decided to once again push forward matters related to the border area and try every means to strengthen his own strength.

Tops used to be a student at the Magic Academy. After the war on the border broke out, the academy closed its gates and prohibited anyone from entering or leaving. Tops, who was out of the academy at the time, was unfortunately left outside and never returned.

In order to re-enter the academy, one must have a pyroxene key that can pass through the sealing array.

When Li Shanren was exploring the academy, he specially found an ownerless pyroxene key. This time when he returned to the handover site, he formally gave it to Tops.

After getting the pyroxene key, Tops was extremely excited. He claimed that he had made a major discovery in magic and would immediately return to the academy to do research.

In order to ensure Tops' safety, Li Shanren personally sent him back to the college.

Since he was just an ordinary magic apprentice, Tops did not have an independent research room in the academy and could only do research at a small desk outside the classroom.

In the original world line, after Tops returned to the academy, he would die at his desk, leaving behind the magic "Tops Stand" that he had spent his entire life researching.

This magic is not an offensive magic, it has only one effect -

Creates a magical stance that deflects aggressive magic and prayer spells, especially ballistic attacks with a clear trajectory, but only for a short time.

After sending Tops back to the academy, Li Shanren did not leave, but stayed by his side and waited for the magic teacher to finish his final research.

During his research, Topps kept writing and drawing on his desk with starlight on his head, and occasionally used the pyroxene fragments at hand to rub out some blue-green magical light.

Li Shanren accompanied Topps for three days and invited him to a larger laboratory, but he refused on the grounds that his status was not high enough and he was used to doing research at a desk outside.

On the fourth day of the research, Tops added some of the rune power that Li Shanren had given him into a ball of blue light.

With the addition of runes, the blue-green pyroxene light began to show various changes, slowly turning into a cyclone-shaped magic vortex. At the same time, the little rune in Topps' hand was quickly consumed.

After the vortex devoured Rune's power, it seemed to want more, but Topps no longer had Rune in his hands.

Without the support of external forces, the magic vortex was about to dissipate. In order to prevent the research from failing, Topps gritted his teeth and injected his own source magic power into it to promote the formation of the vortex.

It is rumored that a source pyroxene will condense in the body of a pyroxene magician. That is where the soul of the pyroxene magician is located. The magic power in the source pyroxene is the source brilliance magic power, which exists like the soul and blood of the magician.

As the source of magic power was injected, Tops' face gradually turned pale and his breathing gradually became weaker.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Shanren placed a hand behind Tops' back and sent a large amount of Rune power to him.

With the blessing of Rune, Topps stopped inputting his own source magic power and instead called on the power of Rune.

Li Shanren continuously injected 50,000 runes into Tops, eventually helping him complete his magic research.

Pyroxene magic - "Tops Field" was born.

Tops was very happy after completing the research, but at the same time he felt guilty for consuming a lot of Li Shanren's runes.

Therefore, he taught Li Shanren the "Tops Field" without reservation, allowing him to master this top-level defensive magic.

Compared to the original "Tops Stand", the effect of Tops Field is to generate a magic field within ten meters around the body, and the range of the field can be expanded according to the concentration value or runes injected by the caster.

Since the Tops Field incorporates the power of runes, it can be cast using both concentration and runes.

In addition, even if Li Shanren's concentration and rune are exhausted, he can release the original Topps Stand or the prototype of the Topps Field with his bare hands.

Within the Tops field, any magic or prayer will be deflected out of the area. At the same time, magic outside will also be affected by the field and deflected in direction, unable to harm the caster inside.

In the future, perhaps I could rely on this magic to gradually acquire the strength to challenge the Saint Silver-level magicians.

Tops' research revealed the secret that at the border, pyroxene magic and prayer magic have the same origin, and they can become the sharpest spear or the toughest shield.

This was a discovery great enough to warrant the establishment of a new classroom in the college.

It’s a pity that there are almost no normal pyroxene magicians in the academy nowadays.

After completing his research, Li Shanren invited Topps to the large library where the Full Moon Queen was.

This is the safest place in the academy, and there is basically no chance of enemies breaking in.

At first, Topps did not dare to approach the Great Library because he did not want to offend the Queen's authority. It took Li Shanren a long time to persuade him before bringing him there.

In addition, Li Shanren also asked the magic teacher to continue studying the pyroxene magic of the Tops faction, and it would be best if he could develop some offensive magic.

Tops is not a combative person and he doesn't want his magic to be used for killing.

But faced with the request of his only student, and realizing the great responsibility that this Faded student shouldered, Tops finally agreed to develop as much offensive magic as possible for Li Shanren.
