i used to be a devil

What should you do when things don't go as planned?

It's inevitable to lose your temper at the person who made the decision without authorization—but for Shugumi, she seems afraid.

Impatient and bewildered, the referee teacher in front of him nodded and repeated with certainty, "Then the rankings of Xiugumi Miller and Doboa Michelle will be advanced, is this confirmed?"

The boy with facial paralysis before—the boy named Doboa Michelle still looked expressionless, and just nodded silently to the referee teacher's question.

Xiugumi seemed to be in an indescribable worry and fear, and didn't react too much to what happened outside.Yi Rang is obviously not someone who can do psychological counseling, but when the matter is finalized, he raised his hand and pressed it slightly on Xiu Gumi's head when the matter was finalized, "Let's go."

Yi Ran said so.There was not much ups and downs in tone afterwards.

The adjustment of the game and the subsequent rescheduling will take a little time, and this time is just a buffer for the two who started the game in advance.

Xiugumi basically had a broken face. In contrast, Rosemil felt that Yirang's attitude seemed too indifferent.

"Are you sure it's really okay?"

The two had already entered the arena. Seeing the back view of Ferrero trying his best to cheer Xiugumi up, Rosemir couldn't help asking, "Is it really all right?"

"What could be wrong?"

Yi Rang has absolutely no interest in watching.He just raised his head lazily, and on the playing field below, after the winner was announced, the start of the match had already been announced.

After walking two or three steps, Yi Rang looked down with the mentality of checking the situation.

The moment the match was announced to start, Shugumi opened the distance first.Her hand engraved with the magic circle clenched her fist nervously: this is a compound formation of three formations. In Yi Rang's simple and excessive description, there are only three simple sentences.

One defensive magic, one offensive magic, and one auxiliary magic.

Yi Ran's speech was too short, and she didn't seem prepared to explain much.Different from the short-term magic circle temporarily engraved on Polly's hand for moving, the one in Xiugumi's hand is obviously a permanent magic circle.

and--

"The power of nature that exists in this world—"

Doboa Michel didn't have any strengthening magic on him, and he didn't do anything to distance himself. He was very clear about Xiugumi's situation at this time.To a certain extent, he didn't feel that the other party was too much of a threat to him...

The magic incantation has been chanted halfway, and the more active magic elements floating in the air gather little by little.The idea of ​​abstaining came out, and two voices in Shugumi's heart kept shouting.

One of them said to do what Yirang said, the person Mr. Xi Lanfa liked could not really look so useless, but the other voice maintained his objection, saying that everything was no miracle at all, Yiran Field is a useless waste, and it has already explained everything until now that he has not solved the situation that he cannot use magic.

Everything around stopped for a moment again, Xiugumi heard the sound of a sudden wind, and after that, everything around became quiet.The noise of the crowd outside the arena disappeared, and there seemed to be no one with them.Xiugumi heard a voice in his ear saying, "Ah, it's really a lie to say that all mages are my disciples."

The words seemed to be rather disappointing, but they couldn't hear too much pity, but they had some tone of voice that was so true.

The distracted thoughts flashed by quickly, Xiu Gumi still focused on his current situation, but found that he...isn't that bad?

Doboa Michel, the only one left in front of him, had finished chanting the incantation completely, but as he got further behind, his original firm voice became uncertain—the magical elements that were originally condensed and active around him, like They are small animals that suddenly lose interest and scatter in twos and threes.

They represent natural magic power, and the light that obeys the magic god's spell to exert power slowly dims.

It's like a sudden strike and non-stop commanding.

"Go straight to the opponent, or you can protect yourself first just in case."

The voice just now sounded again, and before her own brain issued an instruction, just as the voice said, she raised the palm engraved with the magic circle.

"what have you done?"

The sudden disappearance of the magic element made Doboa Michel's paralyzed face finally have a different expression.He frowned and stared at Xiugumi, and raised his hand again to try to summon the response of the magic element, but it had no effect.

"Forget it, I don't really want to play this game."

When Xiugumi heard the voice beside his ear, he said helplessly. After finally feeling familiar with this voice, Xiugumi turned his head and saw a face that seemed unreal but completely unfamiliar.

He is transparent.

That illusory feeling that seems to exist is like the aurora in the sky, which is close in front of you, but it is not real.

As if feeling Xiugumi's sizing up, that person also turned his head to look over, and slightly raised his hand to touch Xiugumi's eyebrows.That hand should be incorporeal... No, it didn't touch her forehead, eh?

Xiu Gumi felt as if he had floated out, but he clearly saw that he was still standing where he was.Is it the robes and hair I wear today... wait, is that my body? !

The astonishing development made Shugumi widen her eyes unconsciously, as if everything she saw would change back to a situation she could accept instead of the current situation——

As if in a brief absence, when he came back to his senses, Shugumi found himself in another place——the stand from before.

She stood blankly on the edge of the stands, with her hands on the fence, and she could see "myself" off the court and Doboa Michel who was still fighting.

--what happened?

"You can't lose, can you?"

Xiugumi felt that he tried to speak just now, but what he said was completely out of tune.She could feel that she should be able to control every part of her "own" body now, but she couldn't get a response after trying.

[You'd better not do inexplicable things without authorization. 】

Xiugumi felt that he was now trapped in a cocoon, he could feel his body, but every movement was completely restricted.The sudden voice was like the one heard on the playing field just now. It was an illusion that he could hear the voice, but it seemed to be talking to himself from the bottom of his heart.

And she could tell that it belonged to the voice—it was Iran Field.

--Who are you.

She couldn't speak, but the voice seemed to have heard the question, and he replied, "Me? I'm Iran Field."

This is impossible.

Xiu Gumi immediately denied this statement in her heart, and then she laughed when she heard the voice, and said in a tone that she instinctively thought could not belong to Yi Rang: [Otherwise you really think you know Is that Ellen Field?Is that what a three-star mage looks like? 】

Hearing this voice from where it came from, Shugumi subconsciously looked towards the field——

She saw herself.

Or it's just her body, and I don't know who is manipulating it.

——Then I know Teacher Yirang...

——You know it in your heart.

……

Yirang felt a little awkward wearing this body, and in a sense, the "clothes" that were not selected always seemed not to fit so well.

"Michelle's house?"

Yi Rang turned his head slightly uncomfortably, adapting to his body movements, which made him seem careless and contemptuous, "I have a little impression of your surname."

"...Listen—" This attitude was obviously an insult to Doboa Michelle. The completely different changes made him easily provoked, and he was about to chant the spell again before he opened his mouth.

"attack."

Yi Rang slightly raised her hand, and the formation engraved on Xiugumi's body danced with light. Following her movements, the excited magic elements in the air quickly condensed into a strange fireball, which suddenly flew towards Doboa Michelle you.

The spell that hadn't finished the first sentence suddenly fell silent, the spell was rushing towards him too fast, Doboa Michel thought he had no chance to dodge, and when he closed his eyes instinctively in preparation for being concentrated, The menacing flames stopped lightly in front of him and disappeared with a puff.

Yi Rang slowly withdrew his hand and looked at the pale Doboa Michel. The expression on his face that he could not completely control was probably marked with the word satisfaction at this moment.

"..." Gasping for breath, Doboa Michel's legs softened for a moment, and the strength of his knees supporting his body was suddenly taken away. He sat down on the ground with a bang, and carefully looked at the "Shugumi" in front of him. ", the next one made a relatively wise choice, "I belong to Michelle's family, and I just live in Panerfei City."

Yi Rang was quite satisfied with the understanding of the young man in front of him, he nodded, and the next question once again broke through the defense line of the young man in front of him, "I like obedient people, so, now tell me what the parasitic soul on your body wants to do?" What to do?"

"...!"

"...!"

The wide-eyed look of the young man in front of him seemed to please Yi Rang to some extent, "Ah, it's not a soul. It's just a small fragment that was separated," he said, and slowly approached Doboa who was sitting on the ground. · Michelle, trapped in the original place the sliver of soul that was trying to dispel the spell and separated from the boy's body, "Beside this little girl, I have completely denied the existence of magic power, you can still retain the attached state, yes A fun little trick that the little guy gave you?"

"Wait...please, please wait—"

Doboa Michel, who had no idea what the situation would turn into, had completely collapsed the mask of facial paralysis on his originally expressionless face. He wanted to avoid it, but he didn't dare to move at all.

"I need this game to end step by step now, you know what I mean?"

he asked.

The sound passed along the shared ability of hearing to the owner of the soul attached to Doboa Michel. Before he could do anything, he felt that part of the soul that had been trapped before suddenly disappeared.

"what--!!!!"

In a room some distance away from the venue, a mage in a robe fell to the ground screaming, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
