I rely on black magic to build infrastructure [Comprehensive fairy tale]

I can live another 5000 years ([-] more)

The sea witch Ula, born as a fairy witch, inherited the magic candle from the previous witch, and once wanted to become a qualified fairy godmother.

I don't know when, she began to dream of going back to farming all day long.

Rather than accepting the princess as a goddaughter and spreading nihilistic beliefs, her dream is to make all kinds of dishes and delicacies.

The power of light is too strong, and easily betraying the duty of the fairy witch will be punished by the God of Light.

Ulla quickly found a solution.Wherever the light reaches, it is the domain of the God of Light.

Is that where the light can't reach?

For example, the deep sea where the sun cannot reach.

Ula chose the Mantanani Sea, which is covered by warm currents in four seasons, with warm sea water and lush sea grass.

She consumed part of her light magic, through the magic candle, into a potion that would turn her legs into fish tails.

After drinking the potion, she has settled in this sea area so far.

"I planted all the seabed plants I could find around here for easy collection." In front of Ula, the cauldron was filled with a light green liquid. She slowly stirred it with a spoon and introduced it to Fran. My own story, "This magic candle will absorb magic and refine any potion you want. Potions and cooking food are interlinked in a sense, so when I use candles to heat my food, I will also Occasionally study magic potions."

Fran glanced at the viscous liquid in the cauldron: "Then what's the matter with you saying that you can't take out the soul sealed in the candle?"

"I got this candle from a very old fairy witch. It was burning from the time she handed it to me. She told me that once the candle is lit, it will burn out unless it burns out. It will never be extinguished. And once the flame is extinguished, it is the moment when the soul of the evil dark god will be seen again."

Ula picked up three pieces of shells from the side of the pot, and spooned the liquid in the pot into the shells.

"It just so happened that you guys came here. My three fresh soup is ready. Would you like to try my delicacy."

It is impossible for the God of Darkness to pick it up, he is not polite: "You call this food?"

"That's natural." Ula misunderstood the meaning of the Dark God, and was even more proud. "You can ask Ariel, is there any fish around here that doesn't know my Ula's food."

Rather than caring about how Ulla served the soup in the sea, Fran cared more about another thing: "How long has this candle of yours been burning?"

The candle under the pot was about the height of a water cup, and the yellow-orange flame was burning in the ocean, but not even a little wax oil could be seen.

"Ahem!" Before Ula could speak, the pair of eyes on the candle opened, and it replied in a hoarse voice of an old man, "I'm almost two thousand years old, and I did my mental calculations on land through the sunset and moonrise. .”

Fran: "...Then how many more years can you live?"

"You young people are really rude, my body is still strong, and I haven't asked for another two or three thousand years... cough cough cough cough!"

Fran: "..."

"That's right, I don't care about the soul in the candle at all, and I don't care about the soul of the dark god reappearing in the sky, but I can't help you." Ula picked the pair of black eyebrows that were repeatedly painted with eyeliner, and handed over one Shell, "Do you want some soup?"

Fran took Ulla's shell plate and glanced at the green liquid inside again. Fortunately, there was no smell spreading from the bottom of the sea.

"You want to eat that..."

As soon as the Dark God's words came out of his mouth, he was gently covered by a hand soaked in the sea water.

Even in the water, he could feel that the hand touching his lips was very soft, but only for a short moment, he quickly withdrew it.

The fleeting touch made his eyes darken slowly.

"I'm very sorry, my lord." Fran lowered her voice, her voice was soft and soft, "Don't belittle a chef's cooking. Before we get enough clues, we can't fight her hard now."

Ula was obviously very confident in her food. Once the Dark God said anything to slander this bowl of soup, Ula would definitely change his face and risk the chef's life.

The situation was so urgent that Fran had to choose to gag the god, and only realized that she had crossed the line after she was done.

Fran was about to bear the wrath of the Dark God, but she just gave up after hearing a small, disdainful "hum".

"What's the matter?" Ula was stirring the soup in the pot with her head down, pouring a bowl for herself to drink, and didn't see this scene.

Fran silently disappeared the soup in her hand, and then replied with a smile: "No, your three delicacies soup is very delicious."

"Really!" Ula was obviously very happy, and then added viciously, "I just said that those fish have no eyes!"

Fran: "..."

"Since you like it so much, I'll give you some more." After Wula took the shell from Fran's hand, she took a small look at the dark god beside Fran.After thinking about it, I still don't plan to persuade him to come too.

"About Ariel, I'm sorry. She told me she wanted to go to land. I thought she couldn't stand the bad relationship between her brothers and sisters under the sea. She wanted to change the environment, just like me. So I let her use her own magic. Activated the magic of the candle." Ula explained, "This candle, as long as you are willing to send magic to it, it can satisfy your wish and make any magic potion. The longer the potion is, the more magic it needs, such as For this fish tail of mine, I almost sacrificed most of my light magic to obtain permanent peace in the bottom of the sea."

It turned out that Ulla herself had done the same.When Ariel indicated that she was going to land, Ulla mistook her for giving up her own magic to gain legs.

"Ordinary burning cannot consume the candle itself. Only burning magic will consume a little bit of the candle, but only a little bit."

Ula's remaining bright magic had been transported into candles in batches by her.She keeps a little bit every time, and puts in a little more after the magic recovers partly through practice.

"From the time this candle came into my hand until now, its length has hardly changed. I believe that even if the gods make a move, it will not be able to consume this candle in a short period of time." Ula patted the body of the candle, "After all There is nothing the gods cannot do, and there is nothing that needs candles to do."

The candle was patted: "Hey, respect the old man."

"..." Fran said, "That's not necessarily the case."

Ulla:?

Glancing at the Dark God, Fran knew that the God was really not convinced.

"Can I borrow a candle?"

Ula handed it over generously.

Fran handed the candle to the Dark God, and he took it naturally, and the dark magic was poured into the candle along his hand.

The endless dark power made Candle's whole body tremble, and the yellow flame above his head ignited a large flame.

Ula looked at it with pity: "What a waste."

With this bit of magic power, you can make a lot of magic potions.

After a while, the candle burned only a little bit.

And after consuming a little bit, no matter how much magic power the Dark God sent, the candle would remain motionless.

The gods had to be convinced.

"The bright magic item is so powerful?" Fran wondered.

"This is not purely a magic item of light." The God of Darkness said suddenly, he was a little dissatisfied that he had not exhausted the candle, "The original body of this candle is equipped with other types of magic, and the God of Light has endowed him with certain powers of his own. Transformed this candle for his own use."

"Other types of magic?" Fran didn't expect so much magic to be contained in a small candle.

"No wonder." Ula said suddenly.

Fran: "No wonder?"

Ula recalled and said: "I have studied many ancient books about magic recipes. There was once a book that mentioned that when more than one kind of holy magic comes together, it can have a more powerful magical effect. As for what is the holy magic? I don't know, I guess it's something as powerful as light and darkness."

"..." Fran looked at the candle for a moment and realized something. She looked at the God of Darkness with an ugly expression, "Therefore, there was some kind of magic on this candle. After absorbing the magic of light, it became even harder Exhausted, and now added dark magic..."

The Dark God understood Fran's meaning: "..."

That's right, a mix of all three spells, and maybe even a little bit of Ariel's sea magic, makes this candle invincible.

Candle coughed twice, opened his eyes again, and said earnestly as an elder: "Young people, I suddenly feel that I can live another 5000 years."

Fran: "..."

Ula vaguely guessed the identities of some men from the conversation between Fran and the Dark God.

But she doesn't care at all.

She cared more about another thing: "I told you everything I know, can you also share with me, your delicious food."

Fran:?

"I have been in this trench for almost 500 years. Although the food I cook is very delicious, but you also know that the ingredients on the seabed are limited. Once those fish and shrimps are caught by me secretly, they will go to the sea. I complained to the mermaids, and I haven’t eaten meat for a long time.” Ula sighed, “I was thinking, should I go back to the land, because my magic is not enough for me to make a potion that turns my legs back. You have also seen that Ariel used up all her magic to get a little potion. But it is different now..."

Ula picked up the magic candle, and just now, a powerful magic was sent in.

Enough magic potion for her to remake the fish tail into legs.

"I'm thinking about whether to go back to the land and use the ingredients on the land to study new recipes." Ula was enthusiastic. "After 500 years, humans must have reproduced many new animals and plants."

"..." Fran, "Aren't you afraid of being found by the God of Light?"

No wonder, Ula is called the Sea Witch.

Ula's eyes were firm: "For the sake of food, I can sacrifice my magic and life! Even if the sea goes against the current and time goes backwards, I will not give up my original decision."

"Wait, what did you just say?" Fran interrupted Ula's majestic speech.

Ulla: "What...? I can sacrifice my..."

Fran: "That's not it!"

"The sea is flowing against the current, and time is going backwards." The voice of the dark god sounded from Fran's ear.

"Yes!" Fran's eyes lit up, "I know how to extinguish the candle!"
