top of magic

This morning, Kiki didn't deliberately get up early, and slept until he woke up naturally before getting up to pack his things, and then asked Barosh to accompany him to the Hall of Miracles where the teleportation magic circle was located.

This is the only non-tower-shaped building on Yuan Island, and it is also one of the forbidden places on the island, which is more difficult to enter than the book tower.

Keech has been here several times by himself, but each time he was warned by the great magician guarding the place as soon as he approached, not allowing him to continue approaching.So Keech could only observe from a distance and draw the structure diagram below the surface.

But just getting detailed drawings is not enough, or in other words, just copying the exact same magic circle can't realize the teleportation function it should have.Kiki had already tried it when he was in Yani City, and the result was the same as the teleportation spell he discovered not long ago. There was no problem in deduction, but it was useless in practice.

Keech couldn't help guessing that the key might not be the magic circle, but the location of the magic circle.

With such a guess, Kiki once again stood on top of the teleportation magic circle, closed his eyes, and carefully observed the changes in the elements here.

The teleportation magic circle can be driven by the magician who uses it, or it can be opened with the help of the great magician who guards here, because it was Barosh who brought Kiki, so the great magician didn't intervene, only with Barosh. Rosh greeted him and went back to his room, leaving Barosh to do his own thing.

Seeing that Barosh's group of undead elements had moved to the side of the teleportation magic circle, Kiki's heart skipped a beat and he said, "Barosh, can I open this magic circle myself?"

"Are you okay?" Barosh asked.

"Well, let's try it." Keech was not very sure, "What do I need to do to inject spiritual power into the magic circle like using ordinary magic circles?"

"Even if I don't dare to do that, silly boy, I will be sucked into it." Barosh shook his head and said, "Concentrate, just inject spiritual power into the magic core, and let the magic circle absorb the magic core." The essence of the elements in it."

"Is there anything else that needs attention?" Keech asked.

"That should be the point." Barosh's tone was also a little vague, "Anyway, as far as I know, there has never been an accident with a magician who uses a magic circle. A magic core is wasted."

"Then let me try it. If it fails, how about canceling this month's teleportation?" Keech begged persistently.

"Don't be so fussy, I can still consume a magic core, as long as you don't toss it like this every day." Barosh replied disapprovingly, while stuffing the yellow magic core in his hand into a corner of the magic circle, and then turned to the magic circle. Taking a few steps back, he motioned to Kiki, "Try it yourself, if it doesn't work, I'll do it again."

"Yeah." Kiki nodded, turning his attention to the yellow earth magic core.

When this magic core was presented in front of Kiki without any concealment, Kiki couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

This is the first time he used another perspective to examine the magic elements in the magic core.When I was with Tina before, because most of the magic weapons I made were simple magic weapons, and everything was aimed at keeping costs down, Kiki didn't even know what the magic core looked like.Later, when I went out to practice with Amir, I killed a few monsters that could obtain magic cores, but Amir put them away immediately after they got them, and then, there was no more.

——The magic elements here seem to be a little different from ordinary magic elements!

Keech thought suspiciously.The color of the magic core clearly indicated its soil type, but the structure and density of elements inside were something he had neither seen nor browsed in books, but... it seemed to be inexplicably familiar.

After thinking for a while, Kiki suddenly remembered his favorite drink, rose blood.

——The element structure in that kind of wine is somewhat similar to the magic core in front of me!

Thinking this way, Kiki did not drive the teleportation magic circle, but asked Barosh: "Barosh, is there any difference between the magic elements in the magic core and ordinary magic elements? How do I feel... a bit Strange?"

"Of course, what is condensed in the magic core is the essence of the elements." Barosh replied.

"Elemental Essence? Is it different from ordinary magic elements?" Keech asked.

"This is a complicated answer. How about you come out of the magic circle and let me spend a few hours explaining it to you?" Barosh half-jokingly said.

"...Let's wait until we come back." Kiki said no more, focused his attention on the magic core again, and gave the order to move.

Fortunately, the elemental essence of the magic core is as obedient as ordinary elements. Following Kiki's order, the surface of the magic core cracked automatically, and the thick elemental essence overflowed like running water, spreading to every corner of the magic circle in an instant .

In the next instant, golden light burst out from the magic circle, enveloping Kiki's whole body.

——It is a pure light element!

Keech made a judgment call right away.

But time did not allow him to observe further. While the golden light was shining, the sense of oppression also followed, and then disappeared in a flash.In just a few seconds, Kiki realized that he had left the Hall of Miracles on Source Island and appeared in the teleportation hall of the Asshai Magic Association.

Keech continued to close his eyes, recalling the feeling just now.Although the time was short, compared with the teleportation that Moriarty took him, it seemed long.The feeling is just similar, and when Moriarty took him, there was no magic element of any kind around him.

——What are the functions of those light elements?

Keech couldn't figure it out.

At this time, a senior magician who was guarding the teleportation magic circle also came over and asked Kiki suspiciously: "Mage Kiki, what's wrong?"

"No, it's just... I'm not used to that feeling." Keech had no choice but to open his eyes, and stepped down from the magic circle.

"Yeah, the teleportation process is really uncomfortable." The magician who knew Kiki, who couldn't name him at all, immediately nodded in agreement.

Keech was not interested in chatting with him, so he stepped out of the teleportation hall, took out the microphone in his pocket, and told Hill the news of his return.

However, Hill connected to the microphone much slower than Keech expected, but remembering that Hill said last time that he was going to work in a new place, it was normal that it was inconvenient to use the microphone.

There was nothing unusual in Hill's voice. Hearing that Kiki had returned to Yasha, he immediately sent an invitation to meet him, asking Kiki to wait for him at the gate of the Magic Association in an hour.

Keech didn't think much, turned off the microphone, went to the library to pass the time for a while, and then took the time to go outside the Magic Association.

Hill's usual four-wheeled carriage did not show up on time, so Keech had to stand at the door and continue to wait.

At this moment, a carriage with the sun emblem of the Magic Association drove out of the association.

Keech glanced casually and ignored it.

But the carriage stopped beside him, and then, the window was opened, and Rocky, whom he hadn’t seen for a long time, poked his head out from inside, greeted Kiki with a smile: “Brother Kiki, you are going to participate Lizzie's sister's engagement ceremony?"

Hearing this sentence, Keech raised his head involuntarily, and asked in doubt: "Who is she engaged to?"

"Isn't it? Don't you know?" Rocky showed a surprised expression, "I heard that her fiance Hill Balotelli is your friend!"

— Hill? !

In an instant, Kiki only felt as if his heart had been stabbed, and suddenly tightened, the pain was astonishing.

"I just came back from Yuan Island, so I don't know." Keech replied dryly.

"Source Island?" A strange look flashed in Rocky's eyes, but he immediately returned to his smile, "It's okay, anyway, the official engagement banquet will not be held until the day after tomorrow. By the way, Lizzy has been taken by Lucifer's family." The Marquis, the God's Blessed One, has adopted her as an adopted daughter, you don't know the news yet, do you?"

"No, I know." Keech responded coldly, but his hands clenched into fists involuntarily.

"You actually know that this matter hasn't been officially announced yet." Rocky curled his lips and continued pointingly, "Licky's luck is too good. What about her? As far as I know, that divinely favored man is not yet 30 years old, so he is not suitable to be Li Qi's father at all."

Keech didn't answer, but his gaze grew colder.

"Ah, I'm too busy talking, Brother Kiki, I'm going to Lucifer's house to visit our sister Lizzy, would you like to give me a ride?" Rocky said, but he didn't even open the car door.

It was impossible for Keech to get in the car, so he glanced back at him coldly, and then turned his head away.

Rocky shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly, and closed the window on his own, allowing the driver in front to move on.

Watching the carriage in which Rocky was riding gradually go away, Kiki finally couldn't help but bit his lip and clenched his fists tighter.

——Licky is going to be engaged to Hill, what is going on? !

At this moment, Keech couldn't wait to see Hill and ask him to understand.

When the megaphone vibrated, Hill was trying on the dress he was going to wear at the engagement banquet, surrounded by not only the tailor who was about to make final adjustments to the dress, but also his mother Alicia and a group of maids pointing fingers.

Because of trying on the dress, Lucy hugged the regular dress with the microphone in her arms. When the vibration sounded, Lucy was startled, thinking that bugs had gotten into the dress.

But at this moment, Hill was more flustered and terrified than Lucy. The moment he heard the voice, he didn't expect the consequences of being found with the magic weapon, but only thought of the reason why Kiki called him.

— Did Keech know that he was getting engaged to Lizzie? !

Hill hurriedly snatched the clothes from Lucy, found a random reason, left his mother and others, and went back to his room.

But when he turned on the microphone, Hill found that Kiki's voice was the same, obviously he didn't know anything, and he just came to Asshai to see him.

Hill quickly asked Keech's location pretending to be relaxed, and told him that he would go to pick him up soon.

Turning off the microphone, Hill heaved a long sigh of relief, rearranged his thoughts, calmed down his emotions, and then took off the dress on his body and changed into the usual clothes for going out.

Although he knew that the matter between him and Lizzie could not be concealed forever, and even if Moriarty didn't go over to inform Keech, it would be leaked through other people and other channels sooner or later, but Hill still didn't want to tell Keech, at least, Don't want to tell him before everything is settled.

—Perhaps because he was afraid that Kiki would kill him in a fit of rage?

Hill thought to himself mockingly, but also knew that this was not the real answer.He was indeed afraid, but what he was afraid of was not the death that Keech might bring him, but... breaking up, breaking up, goodbye forever.

Thinking of this possibility, Hill's heart tightened and ached.

——No, Keech won't do this, he can't bear to leave him, he must be reluctant!

Hill hurriedly consoled himself.

When Hill first decided to marry Lizzie, it never occurred to Hill that Keech would object.He kept instilling in Kiki the awareness that he would marry a woman as early as the two of them confirmed their relationship, so that Kiki was mentally prepared early.And Keech's reaction was just as Hill hoped, reluctantly, but understanding enough.

But when this marriage partner becomes Lizzy, no, rather, when Lizzy expresses her willingness to become his marriage partner, Keech's reaction is far beyond Hill's expectations.His opposition was so fierce and firm that Hill was caught off guard and completely unable to think of a way to deal with it.

In fact, from the point of view of benefits alone, after Lizzy got the surname of Lucifer and became Moriarty's adopted daughter, Hill's need for magic power has been greatly reduced.As long as Li Qi is married, in the eyes of the world, he will be Moriarty's son-in-law, a person favored by the gods. Anyone who wants to plot against him or hurt him must be concerned about Moriarty's terrifying power. Even Emperor De Rossi couldn't do anything to him at will, and Seres, who knew Moriarty's identity, was even more afraid of him, and he would not treat him as an abandoned son after he succeeded.

It's just that the relationship between him and Keech has long been beyond the description of interest.

He loves him.

Really... love him.

Hill sighed bitterly, put all his worries behind for the time being, and left the changed dress to the tailor waiting outside, asking his mother Alicia to make the final treatment according to her preference, while he went first Golden Lotus, told Sandora who lived there not to mention her marriage when she saw Kiki, and then boarded the carriage again and rushed to the Magic Association outside the city.

Due to something on his mind, Hill didn't notice that a carriage with the emblem of the Magic Association passed by him, but the carriage he was riding in did not have any recognizable signs, so Rocky, who was sitting in another carriage, She didn't expect her future brother-in-law to be in this humble carriage.

But when Hill rushed to the Magic Association, he was surprised to find that Keech's expression was not as relaxed and cheerful as the voice he heard through the megaphone.

"Kiki, what's the matter, what happened?" Hill got off the carriage and asked Kiki tentatively.

Keech looked at Hill with a complicated expression, and it took him a long time to say: "I met Rocky just now."

Hill's heart trembled, and he hurriedly pretended to be puzzled and continued to probe, "Did he tell you something? You seem... very unhappy!"

"He never made me happy," Keech replied nonchalantly, lowering his eyelids.

"Okay, forget about him, get in the car, let's go to Golden Lotus." Hill said with a smile, "I've already booked a room, and your favorite bloody rose."

Keech glanced sideways at Hill, but finally didn't speak any more, followed Hill silently into the carriage, and let him grab his fingers and embrace him in his arms.
