"Big sister ~ big sister ~ do you need props to improve luck?"
Behind her, the weird little child appeared again.
Dragon 038 The Man Behind the Scenes
Shellika knew she was in trouble.
I bought a strange ring from an unknown child last night. Since then, there has always been a lingering feeling of heart palpitations. This is the talent in her blood. She resists all powers related to magic. Now she is sitting and lying The source of anxiety comes from that ring, which means that there is an amazing power hidden behind this ring. It doesn't matter whether it is a blessing or a curse. The important thing is that Sherika believes that she has good luck recently and does not need small things of unknown origin to improve her.
No matter how miraculous the child said, she didn't take it seriously, she just wanted to buy it.What she doesn't know is that this kind of ring has a very strong hint effect, the buyer will soon wear it according to the inner desire, and then die, but Sherika is not affected by this hint at all The impact, probably not even the trafficker himself thought of it.
The next day, she stood in ambush on the only road in the college area early in the morning, and immediately pulled him down under the shade of the roadside trees when he appeared.
"Look at this." Sherika spread out the ring in her palm.
Levi swept away all drowsiness with just one glance, with a solemn expression: "Where did you get it?"
The power on this ring is similar to that of a phalanx. At first glance, Levi was sure that it was the culprit of the contract imprint. At the same time, he was relieved. Fortunately, Sherika didn't wear it.He would feel guilty if Shelica was drawn into the vortex of the curse.
Shelika simply replied: "I bought it."
"...I bought it." Levi was also convinced. After searching for so many days, the important clue suddenly appeared in front of him for this reason. He no longer knew whether the enemy was naturally dumb or Sherika was lucky.At this point, Levi didn't hide anything from Sherika, and roughly explained to her what was happening in the black street, and at the same time found a good reason for himself to go in and out of the casino.
Now it was Sherika's turn to be surprised, and she didn't expect Levi to make such a legitimate excuse.
"But you obviously did it for gambling."
"There's nothing wrong with filling your wallet while saving the world."
"But you also went to the nightclub run by the succubus."
"That's because the maze game has huge prizes."
"... Forget your reasons, let's not talk about this matter." Shelika put the ring away again, "Do you have any ideas now? Do you want to report it to the academy?"
Levi shook his head: "Even if they report to the academy, they won't know much more than us. What's more, when the mage guards enter the black street to investigate, the black hand behind the scenes has already fled, which is meaningless."
Since taking over has to be responsible to the end, it's not for the family mission, it's just to follow a little sense of justice in the heart.Xielika thought the same thing, the victims are poor people after all, even if no one remembers them, they should catch the black hands behind the scenes to comfort them, so as to prevent more victims from appearing.
When Shelika was about to say something, she saw Roman passing by, and without a word, she ran over and called him to the shade here.
"Roman, look at this."
Roman's slightly lazy state completely disappeared when he saw this ring, and was replaced by prudence: "An improved contract mark, which can ignore other people's will to forcibly complete a contract of life conversion, depriving life and even soul, where did you come from?" Got such a dangerous thing?"
"It's a black street. Recently..." Levi briefly explained the matter again.
"Used to improve luck? To be precise, it is to satisfy wishes, expect something, and then pay all of life as the price."
"Is that what you said?" Levi took out the box where the finger bones were stored.
The ring is before the imprint, and the phalanx is after the contract is reached. For ordinary people, the trick is death, and the effect can be called a curse.
Roman's expression changed: "All the vitality is concentrated on one bone. This is the practice of sacrifice. How many victims are there now?"
Levi shook his head: "The suspects have increased to 30 people, and the number of deaths is only a vague single digit. This number is constantly increasing. The person who is subject to the contract is cursed to kill after telling the information he knows. The mastermind behind the scenes doesn't even plan to let Tio and I go."
Shelika was particularly concerned: "Have you been attacked? Speaking of which, what about Tio? Could it be that she was injured?"
"No, it's just that she is very vengeful, so she didn't come to class today to find the person who attacked us." Levi said halfway, and the two people in front of him showed a reproachful expression, "Oh, don't show that expression, Tio will definitely be fine."
"How can Tio investigate this dangerous situation by himself?"
"No, let's go find her quickly."
The two immediately decided to skip class to find Tiou and help Levi end the case.It's just that Roman felt that it would be more appropriate to add another person's strength, so he specially entered the classroom to find Brad, and quietly explained the whole story of the black street incident, and Brad decided to skip class to help.
"As a member of the empire, you must never see evil magicians doing evil in the country. I will assist you. But, is it really good not to report to the academy? It is safer to leave this matter to the mage guards."
Roman said directly: "It has been reported, but it has not been paid attention to. They also have to investigate and collect evidence from scratch, and the progress is slow. When they make some achievements, the suspects may be gone to the building, so we have to act at the same time. "
Both Levi and Sherika were indifferent to this lie, and Brad was right to think about it, and with an adventurous spirit full of heart, he agreed to his friend's request.
At this time, a timid voice came: "That...Roman, can I take some of your time?"
"What's the matter?" Viola, who was on leave for a day, was mentally haggard, and she didn't seem to be in class now.
"There is something I would like to ask for your help, can we talk about it alone?" At this moment, Viola seemed to be so weak that a gust of wind could blow her down, and her body's magic power reaction was nearly exhausted. If the phenomenon continues, she may even be in danger of life.
Perhaps it was too much of a coincidence, Viola happened to ask for leave suddenly after the black street incident started to ferment, and saw her in the black street last night, and looked haggard again today, could it be that she was also one of the victims of the incident?
Levi asked tentatively: "Viola, could it be that your family has been cursed?"
"How do you know!" The scheming girl replied subconsciously.
Levi further said: "We are also investigating this matter. Many people have been killed. If you have any clues, please let us know."
It is only right to inform the academy when such a thing happens normally, the mage guards are the real official force, but the first thing Viola found was her classmates, she seemed unwilling to publicize this matter.
After a short hesitation, she nodded and took out a teddy bear from the small bag she was carrying: "My father... I don't know where he got this curse. According to the contract, his life will be sacrificed... I What can be done now is to temporarily transfer this curse to other media, but the corresponding price cannot be paid, and my father's life will still be lost... At this time, I thought of asking Roman for help."
It's not unreasonable for Viola to place her hope on Roman. Roman's specialization in cursing is not only a hobby, but also a family inheritance. His family is a traditional magic family, hidden in the dark side of Weissheim, and guarding the royal family for generations.Therefore, in terms of cursing, Roman has ample say.
Roman was surprised by Viola's words: "You can temporarily transfer the target of this curse to dead things? Forget it, no matter how much it is, you have to meet your father before you know how to do it."
It is impossible for a doctor to understand a patient's condition over the phone, and they cannot prescribe the right medicine without a face-to-face examination. The same is true for curses. Roman has to carefully examine the types and methods of curses to think about countermeasures.
The five of them left the classroom just as the class was about to start, and then met Teacher Nia head-on in the corridor.
"The course will start soon. Where are you going? And Viola, why are you in such a bad state? Don't continue to overdraw your magic power, otherwise the subsequent magic will consume your vitality and you will die."
Even if there is a legitimate reason to skip class, the five of them all showed various guilty consciences when they saw Nia. In the end, Levi went to declare heartlessly: "Suddenly there is something urgent, I ask for leave."
Then the other four hurriedly came up with their own excuses.
"I haven't had a good rest during this time, and I don't feel well."
"I suddenly remembered that I forgot to turn off the magic lamp when I went out, so I went back to take a look in order not to cause an accident."
"I'm on a blind date."
"My father is ill."
Looking at the group of students, Nia felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart. She waved her hand to let it go, but after letting go, she stared at Sherika with concern, as if feeling something.
"Why does she have an unclean power? Are these children in trouble?"
When Levi and the others came to Viola's house, the luxurious residence that should have been a big house seemed empty. There was something missing in the place where the furniture should be placed. It was full of dust, but the living room and bedroom were still cleaned very neatly. It should be Viola's credit. They went straight to the master's room, and Viola's father was lying on the bed, his eyes closed and motionless.
Roman first conducted a comprehensive inspection and sat aside. Viola ran out to prepare tea for the students and brought it in. Roman just came to a preliminary conclusion.
"Sure enough, the target of the contract is temporarily transferred to the medium. It's amazing to be able to do this. However, it's not comprehensive. The curse of not getting the real price will flow back sooner or later, and pay for the life that should belong to him."
"What should I do?"
"Speaking of which, I remember your father was a relatively well-known businessman, why..."
Viola was silent for a moment: "Father, he couldn't accept my mother's leaving without saying goodbye. He drank all day and didn't care about the family business. In addition, he went to black street casinos for a long time and gradually became like this. I originally wanted to go to the black street to investigate the real The reason, but..."
But you were scared away without even entering the perimeter.Levi felt in his heart that every family had hard-to-recite scriptures, and his own family seemed to be quite troublesome.
"Father, can he still be saved?"
"No, the contract has come into effect, but haven't you already transferred the bearer to the media, and now we seal this teddy bear. Brad, Levi, you two help me together."
Roman took out his pocket knife, carved a magic circle on the floor of the room, and poured mercury for sealing demons into the gap.
"You two just need to provide magic power. I will lead the ceremony. Fill all the nodes of this magic circle according to my rhythm, and completely seal this medium."
"is that useful?"
"There are three steps in this curse contract, parasitizing the host, satisfying the host's wishes, and collecting a price. Now it is the process of the second part to the third part. The seal I am presiding over now is to stop this step."
"It will always be like this from now on?"
"What else?" Roman shook his head, "Go through the next few days, and then I will let my family take a look, or go to the Theocratic Kingdom to seek help there. Now try to seal it with all your strength, this is not an easy task."
Levi and Brad stood in the corresponding triangle positions according to his instructions, ready to send their magic power at any time.The teddy bear used as a medium is now placed in the center of the magic circle, which looks ordinary, but as Roman led the seal, the teddy bear was instantly filled with thick and viscous dark power, and this darkness surged to form One eye swept over the three people in the seal, and all three sensed a dark gaze.
"Sure enough, it's the mark of the Demon God."
"Is there a feeling of getting into big trouble?"
"No matter what kind, you have to go now, come! Be careful!"
However, unlike Levi's previous experience, Roman seems to have responded. At the moment when the backlash appeared, crossed silver and white spears suddenly rose in the magic circle, piercing the darkness, and the barbed spears pulled the dark eyes. A little bit into the magic circle, but this process made the three of them feel more difficult, especially when they were about to fall into the seal, the resistance doubled.
Levi's feeling is that no matter how much magic power is poured in, it is not enough, just like melting ice and snow, it cannot fill the gap in the seal.
"Brad, please." Roman looked at his friend.
Brad didn't respond, but closed his eyes, and immediately created a special attitude that enveloped the entire room, conveying faith and courage to everyone, and imperceptibly, there was also a deterrent force attacking the darkness in the seal.
Levi felt that the pressure was a little less, and the curse weakened a lot again, but with the final struggle of the darkness, another wave of greater pressure overwhelmed and began to generate a strong cyclone, disrupting the entire room.
Standing by the bed, Sherika drew out her sword, pierced her feet, and put her hands together on the hilt of the sword, forming a special wall with her to isolate the influence of magic and protect Viola's father.What she regrets most is that she can't help everyone at this moment, because she will destroy all the magic here once she makes a move.
"I'll help too."
"...Pay attention to proportion."
Originally, Roman didn't plan to let Viola participate, because her condition was already very bad, but now she couldn't care less, the power of the curse was much stronger than imagined, and now she was walking on thin ice, and only with more help could she have a better chance of winning .Thinking of this, Roman took out another purple crystal from his pocket and crushed it with all his strength. There was a kind of demon sealed in the crystal, which was liberated at this time.
"I, I'm free..." This little devil is just the lowest level of miscellaneous fish. Because it is a creature of the devil world, it has a very high resistance to magic and curses. The moment Roman released it, it also drained the backlash of the spell in the seal to the On the body of the little devil, the poor little devil turned into stone from the bottom of his feet before he finished speaking.
Fortunately, with part of the pressure shared by it, the four of them strengthened the output of magic power together and completely completed the seal.
The dark sense of staring completely disappeared, and the ominous magic power also completely disappeared with the success of the seal. All four of them were in cold sweat, with lingering fears in their hearts. The inherent self-confidence of the young people made them feel relieved to start this ceremony, but the danger of the process was almost beyond control, and it was impossible It was a lesson for them.
"Successful?" Viola was on the verge of falling, and Levi hurriedly supported her, and then lifted a chair for her to sit down.
But before Roman nodded, a voice that did not belong to them answered.
"The wonderful idea of using a medium to complete the transfer, and this amazing sealing technique, although you are young, you are more talented than you think, little guys."
This voice appeared directly in the room, and following the words, a clod of soil rose up in the corner of the room, forming the appearance of that child.
He has eyes that do not belong to humans, staring at everyone present like a snake, and the magic power permeating from him is exactly the same as the aura of resistance in the seal just now.
Dragon 039 Revenge
The appearance is that of a child, and the inside may be something else. There is no shortage of extrahuman life in this world. Beast-eared mothers still have human characteristics, while demihumans have beast characteristics, and orcs are green-skinned and red-skinned creatures, so it is not difficult Understanding why a child has such a strong magical power is all a disguise, just like the witch instructors whose racial talent is loli.
Gareth has snake-like scales from his neck to his face, and his expression was a little surprised. He first stared at Sherika: "It's strange that you have such a strong desire in your heart, but you didn't choose to wear the mark." , how did you resist the hint?"
