Chapter 15.2-A1: The Witch and the Pet

·

You agree to a private request from the market manager and express your interest in the pet, but you need to see which animals you can choose before making a decision.

He had all the animals that ordinary mages regarded as their pets, including the pseudo-dragon, one of the most popular pets among mages, with an unusually similar appearance to a real dragon, but with no scales and no more than the size of a hound. Able to fly, with a sleepy stinger on its tail, most of them are biased towards the good camp, and can participate in battles, but their tolerance for harshness and evil behavior is very low, and it is common for pseudo-dragons to suddenly break the contract and flee. A pseudo-dragon is hard to come by, and it usually takes a chance encounter.

He said "Thank you very much!" and then the market manager ran out quickly, coming and going.

He finally freed his hands from the rat plague incident, and he has to be busy with the affairs of "Frost Ridge Village", it seems that it will take you time to go to the market to choose the right magic pet.

Raumi ran into the "Dragon Pavilion", found you, sat at the table, scratched his head and muttered, "After refining medicine for several days in a row, I was so busy and confused that I almost forgot to eat." ”

In the past, Raumi was not too embarrassed to come to eat, not only for fear that frequent appearances in the public eye would cause trouble for you, but also felt that it was not good to disturb you and Hathaway alone, but now that she is busy and protected by the law enforcement team and the Marquis, it is no longer you and Hathaway alone, of course she wants to be together.

"Raumi, will you come with us to the labyrinth camp in a moment?"

"Where?" Raumi grabbed the food into his mouth, not making out the words.

"The camp that you arrived at by teleportation, we want to help you weaken, or even disarm, ...... Huh?"

Hathaway couldn't go on,

Because found in your glass...... There is a Pico.

Belch!...... Hee-hee. Leia was lying in a small tub, her arms on the edge of her glass, her feet bent out, her clothes soaked. She giggles incessantly, occasionally burping, her little brain swaying uncontrollably slightly, her eyes smiling and hazy. Inability to maintain stealth when drunk. It's no wonder that you've been wondering why there are so many less drinks today before you take a few sips.

Elizabeth picked up Leia's wings, threw them on the table with a snap, and raised her hand and shouted, "Waiter! There are worms in the wine, what do you say?"

Seeing the cheese next to her, Leia smirked and slowly reached out to crawl towards the source of the aroma, but finally turned to the side, hugged a red apple, and muttered: Don't even think about it, this autumn will be sacrificed, and the winner will ...... It must be me, hee-hee......

You try to pull Leia off the apple, but she hugs her so tightly that if you keep pushing hard, you're afraid you'll hurt her. Staring at this drunken little guy talking nonsense, you have no choice - beckoned to Annette.

He placed the apple on her head along with Pickerel. Let's just go to the labyrinth camp, although I think so, Leia doesn't like Annette's head at all, waving her butterfly wings and floating on your head in an unbelievable mystery track. She tuggs at your hair, sits up straight, and shouts, "Ahhh

The kick hurts your ears a little. She might be thinking of you like a unicorn or something.

It would be troublesome to toss like this, and Elizabeth raised her hand to signal: "I have a way." "After all, she's known Leia for a while.

First of all, prepare a small bowl,

Put in some sugar,

Pour in water,

Mixed. Elizabeth smiled with satisfaction, "Look!

I'm not a little bug, I'm ...... Hiccup, Your Highness the Princess, huh...... After saying this, Leia buried her face in the bowl while drinking sugar water and fell asleep directly. I don't know if this high-level spirit creature will suffocate, probably.

Pour out the sugar water, and finally, you walk into the teleportation array with a bowl of sugar mixed with pico.

In front of the tower of the labyrinth camp,

Luckily, although the otaku mage is usually only available in the evening, he happens to be idle now.

He waved his hand and let the clutter of manuscripts and strange spell casting materials on the couch slowly fly back to the bookshelf by the living room wall: "What? Why do I do such a thing? at least give me the cost." ”

Hathaway whispered to him.

"Of course it's no problem! No problem!" said cheerfully, but he sighed with his forehead, as if he remembered some unbearable past.

Anyway, he took Raumi to a spell array to examine it in detail.

soon

His brow furrowed higher and higher, and he kept shaking his head: "I said, isn't this a witch! You told me to remove the curse, but it wasn't actually - it wasn't a curse, but she herself was a walking curse. The power and its curse are like light and shadow, like two sides of a gold coin, impossible to remove. ”

"How can it not be eliminated?

"My dear secretary, I suggested that you become a mage, but you were unwilling...... Alas. The otaku mage sighed, "Admittedly!" The "Prayer Technique" can be regarded as the most powerful arcane art of the mage, and even tamper with the reality of this world, but it also has limits. For example, I can give a creature +1 for one stat, but even the most powerful mage can only gain +5. I can reverse the fact that I was hit hard, but maybe I'll still be hit hard after going back in time, or worse. The essence of "Wish" is to replicate the effects of an arcane that is no more than level 8, and it can't be an arcane that is forbidden by my faction, or any spell that is no more than level 6. Once the level of prayer exceeds this standard, it will become dangerous and out of control, and the higher the difficulty, the easier it will be to deviate from my original intention. Moreover, it costs at least 2500 gold each time, at least. ”

"Removing the curse is not as simple as you think. Let me give you another example...... If you can't get rid of a cursed sword, I can remove the curse and let you take it off, but the curse of the sword itself cannot be removed. Why? Because it wasn't a temporary effect, it was a constant effect, destroying the sword itself if it had to be removed. It, that is, cursed. ”

Raumi is a long sword,

And doom is the curse of the sword.

There is a curse, there is a curse, there is no curse, there is no laumi.

The otaku mage scratched his head and continued to explain, "And you're not crazy, don't you know the true value of this witch?"

The real value? Hathaway looked back at Raumi, isn't it just refining medicine?

In the eyes of the otaku mage, Raumi has extremely powerful energy, but because he is non-combat, it is not easy for outsiders to notice. The true strength of a witch depends entirely on the strength of the demon she has signed with - Asmodeus, the abyss demon king who rules "lust", in addition to her powers such as astronomy, mathematics, rage, alcoholism, gambling and revenge, etc., not a small character running around the streets. Asmodeus only gives women a peerless look and strength, and curses any male who is with her. Until Raumi dies at the stake, silver weapons, or other high-level magic weapons, her power will only grow with food, and the curse will become more severe and uncontainable.

"What clear eyes...... "The otaku mage sighed as he clasped his hands on the embarrassed expression of Raumi's cheeks, "You don't understand how rare and rare good people who have made a contract with demons. The elder has a cursed sword in his hand that is powerful enough to shake the main material plane, but he told me that he was going to abolish her?"

Wasted?—Raumi fled from the otaku mage in terror and hid behind you.

Hathaway shook her head: "No one asked you to abolish her, don't talk nonsense." In a word, can it be eliminated...... No, weaken the curse?"

"Weaken?" the otaku mage tilted his head, thinking, thinking again, and muttered, "Weakening may work...... Well, but I'll have to try. Maybe the constant effect is not suitable for the constant effect, it is too crude and too short-lived...... The talisman can't be sealed, right...... How many rings if you wear them...... Well...... Hmmm......"

He had fallen into deep thought.

Raise your head suddenly, startling you!"It's a big project!The ring should be worth trying, all ten of them are worn." Listen, that's an amazing pick fee, and I can give you the first ring for free, but don't expect it all, discount? well, discount. That's it. Remember, it's just "weakening" not eliminating! She's only level 4 now, and if she continues to level up, the elder will soon be overwhelmed. There is a limit to good luck. He began to talk to himself.

As scary as it sounded, Hathaway held her chin and asked, "What the hell is a witch?"

Shh

The otaku mage was full of disdain: "The word witch is actually not particular at all. Hundreds of years ago, the kingdom caught witches and burned them at the stake, and people called all the women who made a contract with the devil as witches, but in fact, the demon contractors were roughly divided into three types, regardless of gender. ”

The first is that human beings who are favored by demons or demons by chance are often people with strange destiny in the dark, whose souls taste better than others, or are worthy of their competition with the heavenly realm. It could also be that these humans, out of sheer bad luck, bumped into the Abyssal Dwellers in the grass outside the village and sparked their interest.

Devil or Devil ...... In this case, it is usually the latter, who will make a pact with the human, giving him powerful protection while playing with his fate, and only eating the soul after breaking the contract or dying. It is likely that Raumi falls into the first category.

The second type is human beings who are not favored but have signed a contract for various reasons. They usually become apostles of demons or demons in the main physical plane, spreading evil, like the mage's demons, but in reverse. Or, simply, these humans will directly become the medium through which the inhabitants of the abyss enter the main material plane, both possessed and incarnated. This situation is mostly demonic.

The third ......

The otaku mage took out a book from the shelf, bowed his head and continued: "In the eyes of adventurers, arcane spellcasters are usually classified into two kinds - mages and warlocks, in fact, the book in my hand has been classified into three kinds - one more warlock. ”

"There are many professions in the world, receptionists, government officials, secretaries, witches. "Classification" is a unique mode of thinking of human beings, in order to clean up the clothes littered on the floor and save brain cells, so T-shirts, shirts, cotton shirts, and dresses are all classified as "tops", and trousers, shorts, trousers, cropped pants, long skirts, short skirts, skirts, and floor-length dresses are classified as "bottoms". People like Raumi are so rare, and witches aren't just a witch that anyone can be, so they aren't classified as a specific profession. Recently, the number of "sorcerers" in the kingdom has been increasing, which is why the latest books have begun to mention them. ”

It's the same arcane system, but it's divided into three classes.

There are the most types of arcane arts that a mage can cast, and the entry threshold is low, but it is very difficult to become a high-level mage;

Warlocks have few arcane types but many spell slots, and they don't seem to be any different from mages, but in fact their energy comes from an alien bloodline from years ago, rather than studying hard;

"As for the sorcerer, I've only seen two of them in my life, and they're both very tricky. At first glance, they are no different from mages and warlocks, but the energy does not come from learning or bloodline, but as if the priest serves the gods, serving other powerful beings in the other worlds, such as the elemental ones, in the abyss. The Sorcerer's spell casting principle is similar to that of the Priest, but the spell is all arcane, not magical. They have fewer types of arcane than Warlocks and fewer spell slots than Mages, but are very powerful and good at melee combat like Priests. There are also advanced classes for part-time mages and priests, arcane mages who can cast two different spells at the same time once a day, and ......"

belch

The otaku mage noticed that you were all dazed, scratched his head, and muttered: Am I talking too much again?

Embarrassed.

Because it involves an area of interest, he can't control it for a while.

Coughing lightly, Hathaway stood up: "Thank you very much, I'll leave the matter of Raumi to you, because we are still busy going to the market to choose the right animal to be a magic pet, so we will leave first." "With that, Hathaway secretly kicked your shoe. If you don't leave, you won't be able to go.

The otaku mage looked puzzled and asked, "Who told you...... Magic pets must be animals? Pseudo-dragons are not animals, they are monsters, are they? Besides, why do you have to go to that little place in the market to choose? Isn't there a ready-made superb?"

Hathaway was very happy to hear this: "You have the best product here that is suitable for my family president to be a magic pet?"

"I don't, but you do. ”

The otaku mage pointed at Leia,

He pointed at Elizabeth again.

"What!"

Elizabeth immediately jumped up from the couch and shouted, "I? how can I be a mage's pet?

"Under normal circumstances, a shapeshifter would not be a demon pet. But, you're different. I don't know exactly what happened to you, but I can see that you have an unusual sense of obedience. ”

Elizabeth had been a slave for too many years, and after unimaginable training, some of her thoughts had become ingrained in her mind.

Shapeshifters are unheard of as a pet, as are Picos, but Elizabeth and Leia can be your pets with the help of the Otaku Mage. It's all to blame for the good things done by the speaker's cousin.

Obviously,

Whoever they are, they are much better than cats and dogs, and even better than pseudo-dragons who are easy to defect.

What are you going to do?

A, choose Leia as your pet, and now she's still interested in you. It is worth noting that Pico is good-natured and opposes violence, making it impossible to participate in any battles. In order to maintain your contract with her, your actions will henceforth be biased towards kindness, which is what Leia wants to see but Elizabeth doesn't want to see. Ten days later, Elizabeth will be gone.

B, choose Elizabeth as the magic pet, and now she still keeps her promise to obey you. It is worth noting that the shapeshifter is evil by nature, and like a person who wants to drink water when he is thirsty, she has an instinctive desire to assassinate certain people and change their appearance to replace them. In order to maintain your pact with her, your actions will be skewed towards evil from time to time, which Elizabeth likes and Leia cannot tolerate. Ten days later, Leia will be gone.

C, go to the market to catch a pseudo-dragon.

D, looking forward to reconnecting with Lucia or Harpy someday.

·

If you choose C or D, after ten days, Leia and Elizabeth will leave you sooner or later.

No pet can be leveled higher than a mage. If you choose AB, both Leia and Elizabeth will be reduced to level 3, and of course, the knowledge and skills they have already started will not disappear.
