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

The magic that magic teacher Topps spent his entire life researching has changed from the original "force field" to a "field".

There is no doubt that the latter is the complete form of this magic.

In his original destiny, Tops might have encountered the problem of insufficient runes during his research, which resulted in him having to use his own source magic to perfect his magic.

In the end, he could only research the basic "Tops Stand", and as a result, he exhausted his own source of magic power and died.

This time, with the help of Li Shanren, Topps escaped the fate of death and presented his magic intact.

Moreover, there is still the possibility of further development...

After returning from the border, Li Shanren kept a low profile in Roswaal's mansion and did not even meet with Natsuki Subaru in private, as if he had left all matters in the mansion to Natsuki Subaru to handle.

However, based on the experience of the last reincarnation, both of them set their sights on the outside of Roswaal's mansion.

Only an outsider would use the curse to assassinate the maid named "Rem". The rest of the people in the mansion had no motive to commit the crime.

Li Shanren only gave Lai Yue Subaru a few instructions, asking him to pay more attention to the people outside the mansion and to try his best to gain the trust of the two maids in the mansion, and then he basically left him alone.

Since this kid doesn't want to go back to Byron Kingworth with him and wants to work on his own, he should at least see if this kid has the ability to solve this incident.

If he is of no use and is a hopeless case, Li Shanren will tie him up and take him back to prevent him from committing suicide outside and causing the unfortunate Li to reincarnate with him.

Three days passed peacefully.

On the morning of the fourth day, Subaru Natsuki and Rem left the mansion and went to the village under their jurisdiction to buy things.

There had been purchase trips out in previous reincarnations, and in the last reincarnation, since Subaru was a guest, Rem went out to purchase alone.

In other words, this was their only contact with the outside world. If the mysterious sorcerer wanted to attack the two of them, this was his only chance.

After the two left, Li Shanren did not follow them openly. He returned to his room and changed into a full-coverage Kalia Knight suit. Then he used his bloody fingers to stain the blood of Subaru Natsuki that he had prepared in advance, wrote the other party's name, and finally followed them quietly in the form of a red spirit invasion.

Tracking in this way, there is no need to worry about being discovered by Ram who is always monitoring the mansion.

Unlike in the game, Li Shanren, who appears in the form of a red spirit, can attack any creature freely, not necessarily the one he invades.

Therefore, this ability can be used for both secret assassinations and as a means of rapid support.

He followed the two men for the entire morning, carefully observing everyone they approached, but he didn't see anyone suspicious.

The only notable incident was that when Subaru Natsuki was playing with a group of children in the village, he was bitten by a puppy in the arms of a little girl.

After finishing their shopping, Subaru and Rem returned to the mansion and happened to meet Roswaal who was about to go out.

Roswaal suddenly claimed that he had to go out for an urgent matter, and after instructing the two maids to entertain the guests in the mansion, he left alone.

With his strength, he naturally doesn't need any guards around him.

After Roswaal left, Subaru went to look for Lee Sun-in privately, but since Lee Sun-in was still in his red spirit form and had not returned yet, he could only go alone to find Beatrice for help.

Beatrice examined Subaru Natsuki's body and found that he had indeed been infected with the curse, thus confirming that the mysterious sorcerer was in the nearby village.

After asking Beatrice for help in lifting the curse, Subaru Natsuki wanted to find the sorcerer as soon as possible, and he found Rem and Ram in a panic.

After several days of cultivating feelings, he had gained the trust of the two maids as much as possible. After some lobbying, Rem agreed to accompany Subaru Natsuki back to the village to find the mysterious sorcerer.

On the other side, Li Shanren, who stayed in the village, secretly observed the children in the village, especially the little girl holding a puppy.

While playing, the puppy in the girl's arms suddenly broke free, crossed the protective barrier surrounding the village, and escaped into the forest.

There are magical beasts in the forest where this village is located, so Roswaal set up a barrier for the village to prevent the magical beasts from invading.

After the puppy disappeared, the little girl followed it into the forest out of anxiety.

Seeing this, the other children, perhaps out of worry, hurriedly followed.

Li Shanren followed silently behind, but he could only chase for a few hundred meters before he could no longer catch up.

There is a distance limit for the Red Spirit's invasion; he cannot be too far away from the invaded.

Now Subaru Laiyue has returned to the mansion, but he is still staying near the village. This distance is already the limit. If it gets longer, his red spirit body will automatically disintegrate.

After those children recklessly ran into the depths of the forest, Li Shanren, knowing that he could not catch up with them, took the initiative to disperse his red spirit body and return his consciousness to his original body.

After waking up on the bed in the room of the mansion, Li Shanren immediately set off for the village.

On the way, he met Ram who stayed at the mansion. He learned from her that Subaru Natsuki had returned to the village with another maid, Rem, but had just left not long ago.

Li Shanren thought about it and decided not to chase after Subaru Natsuki. After saying hello to Ram, he left the mansion alone, summoned Torret, and rushed to the village first. He chased after the children who had gone deep into the forest based on his memory.

However, before he could chase far, he suddenly met a young man wearing a gray windbreaker and holding a metal cane.

Excerpts from memories:

Looking at the handsome young man with gray-blue eyes in front of him, Torrett snorted, stopped and stood still.

As a spirit horse, it can deeply feel the threat emanating from the opponent.

"Who are you? Why are you stopping me?" Li Shanren stared at the other party and asked in a deep voice.

"Hello, greetings to you, the new Moon Saint." The young man raised his metal cane and saluted Li Shanren in a dignified manner. "I am Ludwig, a church knight from the Holy Cross Church. My Lord has issued an oracle to invite you back to the Holy City, and His Holiness the Pope has sent me here to welcome you."

Li Shanren's eyes fell on the young man's cane. The shape of the cane looked familiar to him, as if he had seen it somewhere.

That dream...

He suddenly remembered that when he was in the Kingdom of Jonia and leading a caravan to Byron Kingworth, he had entered a strange dream in a village he passed by.

In that dream, he met a beast hunter named "Frye", whose weapon was a cane that could transform into a spiral metal whip, exactly the same as the one in Ludwig's hand.

"I don't understand what you are saying." After a few moments of silence, Li Shanren said, "Did you find the wrong person?"

"No, I am very sure that you are the saint appointed by our Lord." Ludwig smiled faintly, and two scrolls automatically flew out of his sleeves, unfolding one on the left and one on the right, and appeared in front of Li Shanren.

One depicted his face, and the other depicted a silver full moon.

Li Shanren looked at the two scrolls and his pupils shrank slightly.

He had met the Moon Goddess more than once or twice, so it was not surprising that the other party's appearance was depicted with his ability, but what was presented on the other scroll was the magic of the borderland "Lena's Full Moon".

But in this reincarnation, Li Shanren has not yet cast Lenara's full moon. If time is reset and the reincarnation is completed, then it stands to reason that the Moon Goddess would not know this magic.

Unless... as a true god, given his status, Subaru Natsuki's cycle of death cannot affect him.

He has transcended the so-called "reincarnation", so when Li Shanren performed this magic in his previous reincarnations, he was actually seen by the Moon God.

Perhaps, the time called back by the cycle of death is just the clock moving back a little bit in the eyes of the other party. From the perspective of the true God, except for special circumstances, this cycle does not have much significance.

"Reinara's Full Moon" is a magic from the border area. It is rumored that the Full Moon Queen Reinara met the "moon" when she was young, and then mastered magic. In essence, it may not be the magic created entirely by Reinara, but has been more or less influenced by the "moon".

Although there is no direct evidence that the "moon" of the borderland is closely related to the "moon god" of this world, there is no doubt that "Lenarra's Full Moon" is a higher-level moon magic.

If you exert moon-related powers in this world, you will inevitably be noticed by the Moon God.

However, Li Shanren did not expect that the Moon God would directly give him the identity of a "saint" and even send out the first knight of the church.

This is a legendary transcendent being, and right now Li Shanren can't even deal with Roswaal, let alone this legendary strongman.

but......

The legendary combat power of the Kingdom of Jonia can easily penetrate into the heartland of the Caesar Republic, and the royal city has no defense at all. If a war breaks out in the future, it will be disastrous.

It's like randomly dropping a nuclear bomb from the air.

"I can't leave with you. I have my own things to deal with." Li Shanren shook his head.

"What's the matter? Perhaps I can help a little." Ludwig said with a smile.

Li Shanren was slightly stunned. He didn't expect the other party to answer like this.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Li Shanren shook his head and said, "No, it's not necessary. Let's put it this way. After I finish dealing with things here, I will go to your holy city in person."

"His Holiness the Pope has asked me to personally take you back to the Holy City. I'm sorry I can't meet your request."

"But I can't go with you now. Are you planning to take me back by force? I think the Pope didn't send you here to make an enemy of me." Li Shanren frowned and said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Ludwig sighed, "I really don't mean to offend you. In that case, I will wait until you have dealt with the matter here before coming to see you. It just so happens that... my current condition is not very convenient."

After saying this, Ludwig bowed slightly, and his body turned into countless silver-white light spots and dissipated.

Li Shanren looked at the place where the other party had just stayed, frowning.

That Moon God... for some unknown purpose, he actually wanted him to go to the so-called holy city.

He didn't want to go if he could.

After all, that is the territory of a true God, and if you go there you might be at the mercy of others.

But then again, if he didn't go, judging by Ludwig's performance, it would be extremely easy for the First Knight of the Church to find him. If he really wanted to take him away by force, it would probably be just a thought.

Unless you stay at the border forever, it seems that you have no choice.

Li Shanren stopped and pondered for a moment, and finally let the matter go for the time being.

For now, we must prioritize dealing with events related to Subaru Laiyue.

......

After Ludwig left, Li Shanren continued to search for the villagers' children who had rashly run into the forest.

The forest was quite vast and densely wooded. Although Li Shanren had found the traces of the children's running, it would still take some effort to actually find them.

During his search, he was attacked by a monster as expected. It was a black and red creature similar to a hound, ferocious and bloodthirsty.

To Li Shanren now, this kind of monster is quite weak. Basically, one pyroxene magic gravel can take one away. But there are many of them, and he doesn't want to waste his concentration points, so he simply summons the Storm Guards to clear the way for him.

At the same time, the Storm Eagle Tigne among the Storm Guards can also fly high into the sky to conduct reconnaissance and search for him.

After searching for seven or eight minutes, Li Shanren didn't know if he had lost his way, and he still couldn't find the villagers' children who ran into the forest.

"Could it be that they have gone back on their own?"

Sitting on Torret's back, Li Shanren held his chin and thought.

Just as he was about to return to the village to check, suddenly, the lost knight Oleg standing on his left seemed to have noticed something. A gray storm appeared around him, and he rushed into the woods beside him like a chariot.

"Oh no! We've been discovered!"

A childish, slightly panicked voice came from the other side, and then a two-meter-tall black and red wolfhound was driven out by Oleg.

Sitting on the dog's back was a girl with dark blue hair and pigtails. She looked only thirteen or fourteen years old.

When he saw the girl, Li Shanren's eyes darkened slightly.

He recognized the other person; it was the girl holding a puppy in the village.

I didn't expect the other party to appear here, and... he is suspected to be able to control these monsters in the forest.

In other words, this girl is most likely the mastermind behind the incident.

The curse that infected Subaru Natsuki was most likely from her.

Seeing the enemy appear, the Storm Guards surrounding Li Shanren took action one after another, intending to kill the girl and the wolfhound under her.

Seeing two well-armored knights rushing towards her with storms all around them, the girl's face turned extremely pale in an instant.

This girl is not very strong, and she is bound to die facing the concentrated fire of the Storm Guards.

At the critical moment, Li Shanren said, "Capture her alive."

Oleg, who rushed forward first, cut off the head of the black and red wolfhound with a sword, then turned the sword over and hit the back of the girl's head with the hilt, knocking her unconscious.

Ingwill took two steps forward, caught the girl with one hand, and brought her back to Li Shanren.
