Chapter 22: Taoism and Magic

The moon is full today, and the cold moonlight is sprinkled all around. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info(Pingnan)

The lawn on the outskirts, once the site of the battlefield between Minia and Asa, is still covered with charred burn marks.

Now, here it will be-

"Sakura-san, are you ready?" Frank, who was not far away in front of him, asked politely.

"Ahh - Wait! I bowed to him in a panic.

"Huh! I'm not in a hurry. ”

Whew- let out a long breath.

Although the cool autumn breeze has been blowing on the faint head.

But my heart is still in turmoil.

"I was the one responsible for killing Lacey!"

The moment I heard this, my blood boiled all over my body.

Almost at the same time, little Luca and I wanted to rush forward for revenge - if it hadn't been for Asa stopping us.

"You were the one who was responsible for killing Redeye with your own hands? Originally? Asa stared at Frank with a serious expression again, "What do you mean by 'originally?!'" ”

"Oh - I should say that our Non-God Society wanted to kill Thresteen - but it didn't."

"Why?" I felt like I couldn't control my emotions anymore and yelled at Frank, "Why kill him?" Whyβ€”why! ”

"Want to know? Then please fight with me, and I want to know if Miss Sakura is worthy of our trust," Ignoring our surprise and anger, Frank said, "I'm not a bad person as a non-member of the Divine Societyβ€”this Asa knows very well. Sakura-san, please, please let me see your Taoism! ”

There were so many surprises, and although I couldn't help but follow Frank to this meadow on the outskirts, the anger, pain, and doubt in my heart did not diminish in the slightest.

Why, exactly?

looked at the silver-haired old man holding a kettle in front of him and drinking water leisurely.

I suddenly wanted to cry.

I don't know why, I suddenly want to cry, I want to have someone around me to rely on, I miss Lacey.

"Sakura, don't think about it so much," Assa's quiet words came from behind him, "it's useless to think about it - it's clear if you fight him." ”

It's clear if you hit it?

- Yes, even if Lacey wasn't killed by the Non-God Society, then the Non-God Association should know a lot of things that we didn't know before.

To avenge Lacey, this opportunity must not be missed.

Take another long, deep breath and let the cool breeze fill your entire chest. By the way, look up at the deep night sky on that autumn day.

Quiet, tranquil, full of stars.

- Lacey, look at my sister!

Raising the sword diagonally with my right hand, and at the same time taking out the Dao Talisman with my left hand, I nodded at Frank in a posed position.

"Huh? You ready? - Wait! Frank drank the empty kettle in one gulp and tossed it to Minia, "You guys stay away - little Luca, under the protection of the mask." Finally, he made a special reminder.

"You have to take care of it!" Although little Luca's reply was hostile, she obediently sided with Minia and them.

"Huh!" Little Luca's change of attitude made Frank sigh a little helplessly, and then bowed slightly to me, "I'm sorry - because it's a test, I won't talk nonsense!" ”

With that, he immediately retreated sharply, while his mouth was quickly chanting.

"Don't think!" Before I could finish speaking, I quickly rushed forward, and at the same time threw out the flame charm with my left hand.

"This is Daojutsu? - Not bad! Frank easily blocked the Fire Charm and rose into the sky with the power of the Dao Talisman explosion, while dodging the sharp stab of the sword, "The Dao Talisman is very fast, and the power is not bad!" ”

"Moonlight Sword * Flash!" Without waiting for Frank to fall back, I raised my hand and unleashed my sword skills.

"Smack!" The Moonlight Sword blaster hit his shield.

"Moonlight Sword? Hieron's swordsmanship is also very good! - Worthy of his daughter! Butβ€”" Ignoring my surprise, Frank laughed and floated into the air, but shook his head, "Too inexperienced! ――Where is there a person who misses and is in a daze? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Flame Charm! Hearing his words, I felt my face fever in embarrassment, and hurriedly threw out the Dao Fu again.

The explosion of the Dao Talisman in the air crackled non-stop, but it was all blocked by the protective shield.

"So many prayers for light? Composite light shield?! How can it be?! Little Luca exclaimed, "Grandpa Frank sings so fast!" ”

Yes, it's fast.

I looked up at Frank blankly.

In mid-air, several rotating golden circles of various sizes closely surrounded Frank, and the composite shields produced closely guarded him - my fire charm had no effect at all.

What to do next?

"Miss Sakura, do you only know the Fire Flame Talisman?" The floating Frank frowned slightly, looking a little disappointed, "Is itβ€”" He hesitated, and began to chant again.

I had to throw out the talisman again in vain - it was useless, it was all blocked by the protective shield, and I couldn't interrupt it at all.

Soon, Frank finished chanting, and a large complex magic circle was generated in front of him, and then a huge golden spear slowly stretched out from the array.

"Judgment Light Gun?!" "Sister Sakura! Be careful! "Sakura! Flash mob! ”

Without much thought, I hurried to the side.

-- However, the expected explosion did not sound.

"What are you three little guys doing here?!" Frank looked at the three men who rushed over to protect me, and sighed helplessly.

"That's the Light of Judgment Gun!" Little Luca raised her gun in front of me, looking very nervous, "Sister Sakura can't stop it!" ”

"It's said it's a test!" Frank shook his head, "I won't hurt Miss Sakura, besides-" he added, "If I just released the light gun, would you three little ones be able to withstand it?!" ”

"And youβ€”" Minia hung down her pit viper sword in confusion.

"Alas! A bunch of reckless little guys! Frank shook his head again and sighed, "Look at it! ”

After speaking, there was a "snap", and the huge magic light gun in front of him dispersed into nearly many slender light guns.

"There are twenty of them, and none of them are very powerful," Frank explained, "Miss Sakura, please use your Dao art to resist them." That way, you'll be qualified. ”

"That's not going to work either!" Asa muttered on the side, "Sakura doesn't understand our magic!" ”

"Hahahaha......" Frank laughed, "Sakura doesn't understand, don't you understand?" Well, I allow you to help! - But only verbally, all right! You three little ones should stand far away! ”

"Now, Asa," I hurriedly asked, before Asa left, "what will you do with this light gun?" ”

"Me? Reflected with an ice mirror, of course! Asa made an ice mirror in his palm, and added, "It's like thisβ€”those little light guns aren't very powerful anyway." ”

"And what if the big light gun just now?" I asked.

"Run, or resist with magic of the same power."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Sakura, have you figured out how to deal with it? By the way, do you want meβ€”" Assase smiled and leaned in.

Without hesitation, kick him away, "Don't make noise! Let my sister think about it! ”

Ice mirror reflection? Looking at the twenty light guns in the sky that were ready to fire, I thought hard.

Kindness...... Asa as a magician uses an ice mirror to reflect because it is a "light" gun, which is essentially light - it doesn't have to be an ice mirror, as long as it is a mirror, isn't it?

- Asa can use magic to create mirrors, but what about me? What do I have?

Yes! That's right!

"Talisman! Gold! I put the talisman on my sword, "Strengthen! ”

Syllable! There was a slight sound, and the steel sword, which was already somewhat shiny, emitted a mirror-like silver light as desired.

It seems that the effect is good~

"Good! Come on! I yelled at Frank.

"Yes! The first one! ”

The light gun fell in response, and I saw the coming, raised my hand and raised my sword.

While! With a bang, the sword reflected off the light gun, but at the same time, the hand felt a sore numbness - the light gun is so powerful!

"Not bad! Second, third, fourth! Before Frank could finish speaking, several light guns shot again in a row!

Too much! I hurriedly reflexed the first two, my arm was so sore that I could no longer raise my sword, and I had to flee to the side in embarrassment, and I could dodge the last fourth light gun, but the explosion of the light gun on the ground still knocked me to the ground.

"It doesn't seem to work!" Frank stopped his attack again.

Unwilling.

Standing up in embarrassment, I bit my lip unwillingly, and tried hard to raise the sword in my right handβ€”

Syllable! The sword broke.

β€œοΌβ€

Woo! People finally picked the sword and said.

"Sakura-san, you can't just rely on reflexes!" Frank looked more disappointed than I was, "If reflection can resist light guns, isn't it just a mirror to restrain light magic?" - Now, do you want to try it again? ”

…… That's right, light can be reflected, but the impact that shook the arm can't - this should be the difference between ordinary light and light magic, right?

- What should I do?

What else can be done?

"Sister Sakura!" Little Luka shouted from the side, "You can't learn the ice magic of my disgusting brother, you can try using dark magic!" ”

"Hey, hey, hey! Sakura uses Taoism! Asa corrected from the side, "Where is the magic?!" ”

"Hey, hey! Luca: I'm talking about the magic of darkness! ”

"Where can Dao art be so simple? What kind of magic can be put on?! - Sakura, do you think so? ”

Dark magic? Yes! Isn't light magic the opposite of dark magic?

That's-

"Little Luca! Why is dark magic and light magic opposite? I asked.

"Huh?! - Huh? Yes?!! Sister Sakura, why do you ask such a strange question? Little Luca was confused, "Isn't it because light and shadow are relative?" Kindness...... Anyway, the magic that can make light magic invalidate the most is dark magic! ”

Void?!

Oh! I understand!

"Hah! Sister, I see! Thank you Luca! ”

"Luca, I don't understand, Sakura, what do you understand......" Little Luca continued to mutter, confused.

Nullity, not a reflection, should be ineffective, just like day and night, the same light, the strong sunlight of the day and the cold moonlight of the night are completely different, as if the night invalidates the light - it should be said that the night absorbs the energy of the light.

Absorbs the energy of light...... Well-

So......

Thinking along this line of thought, the color that absorbs the most light energy should be black, just like drying clothes, the first thing to dry must be black clothes.

Well...... There's a way!

"Asa! Have an ice cube! ”

"Huh? Need ice? Oh! Then! ”

"Thank you!" I stretched out my hand to take it, and then recited the Dao technique, "Yin and Yang Five Elements, the color of the water is black-" The transparent ice cube that Asa threw in his hand gradually turned black.

"Huh? Black ice? How did Sister Sakura do it? ”

I raised my eyebrows proudly at little Luca, who looked curious, and then continued to focus on casting spells, "The source of water and qi - scatter!" ”

The black ice dispersed into a cloud of black mist.

"Mr. Frank! Please go ahead! This time I said to him confidently.

"Miss Sakura, you just rely on this black fog?!" Frank was puzzled.

"Oh no! - Look! I smiled and swung the broken sword in the black mist, and as I hoped, the black mist wrapped the broken sword as I wished, and gradually condensed.

"Dark Sword?!" Everyone present exclaimed in surprise, "Advanced dark magic?!" - How is that possible?! ”

"It's not the Dark Sword!" Holding the black long sword formed in my hand, I swung it proudly and freely, very handy, "This is the black ice sword!" ”

"Sakura, Sister Luca, I don't think it's any different......"

"Ha~ Sister, I don't know what the dark sword is like!" I smiled back, then looked at Frank in the air, "Mr. Frank, please!" ”

"Oh...... Here it comes! Frank looked as confused as little Luca, but he still fired a light gun.

Easily raise your sword to block, ha, it's really easy!

"Absorbed?!" Everyone exclaimed again.

"Impossible? How can it be so simple?! Frank was even more surprised, "Miss Sakura, I'm launching in a row!" ”

Without my consent, a succession of light guns flew down - only to disappear silently on the blocking black ice sword.

"Impossible?! This is the power of Taoism?! Frank exclaimed, unleashing all the light guns before summoning the giant light guns again- "If you can block this, you win!" ”

"Frank!" "Grandpa cheats!" At the same time as the shouts of surprise and anger rang out, the giant light gun pressed towards me with a powerful shocking force!

"Good! You said! I raised my hand confidently and violently, "Meteor Sword!" And thenβ€”"Talisman!" Burst! ”

The Black Ice Sword flew out of its hand with powerful energy and stabbed straight at the light gun!

Rumble! A violent explosion occurred at the moment when the sword and gun collided in mid-air, and the two powerful forces squeezed the power of the explosion to both sides.

Against the dark night sky, the white energy aura spread out by the explosion looked so beautiful.

For a while, the unexpected result stunned everyone.

"How is it possible......" Frank, who was the first to reply in shock, muttered, "Dao is so powerful?!" The improvised Dao technique can actually block my light gun head-on?! No way...... It couldn't be ......."

"There's even more incredible! Look! "Looking at the stunned crowd around me, I suddenly felt like a prank, and I surprised them again! Giggle! Thinking of this, I threw the flame charm at Frank again.

"Huh?! What is this flame charm for? Frank looked at the flame charm blocked by the light shield suspiciously, "Isn't it as ineffective as just now?!" ”

"Hey! Look at it! I laughed and raised the middle and index fingers of my right hand, "Talisman!" Burst! ”

Syllable! It was a small sound, but the effect was no different from the big bang that had just happened.

"What? How can it be?! Everyone screamed again.

Amid the screams, Frank frantically flapped his own burning bishop's robe.

"How so?! Hit me through the light shield?! ”

"Hee-hee! Sister, am I qualified? ”
