The warden who guards the witches

Late at night, Aiden stood in the center of the foggy office, calmly observing the "change" in his office.

The fog that blocked his vision suddenly dissipated, the scattered files on the ground automatically returned to the shelf, the paintings that fell on the ground also floated back to the wall, the spilled coffee returned to the cup, and the objects on the desk returned to their places.

Just now, he tried to use the "return" divine words he mastered in the office.

Although he had personally experienced the effect and value of the divine words in the battle with Precia, it was not until today that he began to seriously study and practice the effect of this divine word.

To speak the divine words with the flesh, the mouthpiece must be transformed into a very extreme state. For an individual like him who can use the power of physical transformation but has not paid the price of pain personally, every time he uses the divine words, he will experience a pain like a sharp blade cutting through his throat, so he can't just play with this divine word when he has nothing to do, or use it casually as a tool to tidy up the room.

Aiden paced back and forth in the office, confirming the effect of the divine words everywhere.

The fog just now was created by him using black magic, and it was also dispelled by the divine words. This black magic can completely block the sight of other people. The user's vision will be better than others, but it will also be greatly affected.

The objects that were deliberately messed up basically returned to their original positions, and the floor became much cleaner than before - just now he noticed that the paper scraps on the ground automatically flew into the trash can.

This kind of regression effect can sometimes exceed the limit that ordinary human power can achieve. Even the ink splashed on the paper and the coffee spilled on the floor will return to the original place as if time has gone back - having said that, he didn't want to drink that cup of coffee.

Then, he went back to the front of the desk and carefully observed the documents on the table.

On the table was a copy of the document sent by the human resources department for review. Aiden reached out and tried to pick up the document, but in the end he only picked up a fragment.

He narrowed his eyes, stretched out his fingers and swiped the paper twice, and the paper was completely divided into several pieces - it was originally broken, but it was pieced together with extremely delicate means, so that it looked intact at first glance.

Before using the divine words, Aiden deliberately tore the document into pieces and crumpled them together. Under the effect of the divine words, the fragments of the document became flat again, and then pieced together delicately.

Aiden glanced at the wastebasket again. Along with the document, there were several pieces of useless waste paper that were torn and crumpled together. Those waste papers were not pieced together like this document, but were automatically scooped into the wastebasket.

Aiden picked up the kettle filled with boiling water again and prepared to pour water on the ground, but no drop of water flowed out of the spout of the kettle.

He stared at the clock and kept this posture for a long time, and then the water finally flowed out of the spout of the kettle, splashing on the ground, and Aiden quickly held the kettle flat again.

This time he measured the duration of the divine words after they took effect - about thirty seconds.

So that's it... Aiden felt that he had touched the limit of the effect of this divine word a little bit.

The effect of the divine word will be based on the subjective judgment of the releaser. For Aiden, the same torn and crumpled paper is useful, while the waste paper is useless, so the divine word makes the file return to its original state as much as possible, and all the waste paper is thrown into the trash can.

However, although the file "returned" to its original position, the damaged state has not been eliminated.

By analogy to black magic, this "return" divine word can be dispelled by magic, so that some of the magic effects return to the effects before the magic took effect, but it is probably impossible to repair the established damage caused by black magic to the caster.

At the beginning, Precia used continuous mental magic on him. Once the spell was dispelled, the senses and spirit would return to their original state. But if Precia's spell caused irreversible damage to his spirit at that time, or if she shot him directly, this "return" divine word would be powerless to save him.

In other words, this divine word can only be used as a means of dispelling or purifying in battle, and cannot be used as a nurse skill to restore health.

In addition, Aiden has roughly explored the scope of this divine word from several previous attempts - roughly centered on the caster, a range of about five meters, and the caster's consciousness must be able to perceive the space.

For example, now, the scope of the divine word is actually larger than this office, but because Aiden cannot directly perceive the state outside the office, the divine word can only take effect in this office.

He once asked Precia, when Precia used this divine word on her before, Precia felt a force trying to pull her spirit out of Rebecca's body. But in the end, the divine word did not work, probably because Precia's body was outside the scope of the divine word.

To be honest, this divine word that can dispel black magic is very useful, and to some extent, it can even achieve the effect of a "mage killer".

But his divine words have limits on effect, range, and duration, and although they can override black magic, they may not work on other divine words.

According to Aiden's estimation, if he faces an opponent like the witch Vera, he should have a relatively high chance of winning.

But if the opponent is Abigail, or "that person"...

No, he may not even be able to beat Lamia and Kikimora who also possess divine words.

The Word of God is the power of God, and its power is definitely more than that.

However, in his hands, the effect of this Word of God can only be regarded as a useful purification spell, which is probably because his power as a user is limited.

Even the strongest and sharpest axe cannot cut off a thick tree trunk if it is wielded by a child who is powerless.

I remember that Melifilia said that the effect of the Word of God will increase as the individual masters other Words of God under the same authority.

Mastering three words of the same authority, obtaining the corresponding "only authority", and completing the corresponding promotion ceremony, you can directly become a ruler...

Because he couldn't see through Melifilia's true purpose, Aiden still had some reservations about Melifilia's advice. When Melifilia said this before, he didn't give a positive response.

But one thing Melifilia said was true, that is, if he didn't try to master as many Words of God as possible, his situation would become very difficult sooner or later.

Melifilia may have other intentions, but she seems to be interested in bringing Aiden closer to the authority of the ruler - of course this may be using him, but for Aiden, this use is profitable.

Although it is a tiger's skin, at least the tiger is on his side now.

Having made up his mind, Aiden picked up the lantern and opened the entrance to the tunnel again.
