Ryori has been trained in kendo by her father in the family's gym since she was a child, and as her two sides of the same body, Oriya has inherited Shiki's combat memory and physical ability.

The small dagger wielding in his hand still looked like that, but in the eyes of Lu Xiao, who could be called a kendo master, the weaving movements were full of flaws.

"Smack!"

Easily grabbing the right wrist of the weaver holding the dagger, Lu Xiao helplessly persuaded: "Double personality, you chose the wrong target, the little rookie of the more than ten levels wants to challenge the hundred-level tuba, think too much." ”

"Huh!"

Lu Xiao used his soft strength to follow Liangyi's own strength and threw him to the ground, weaving to the ground with an unbelievable expression, he didn't expect that he would be defeated so easily.

Striking the back of Ori's neck with a knife, the aggressive boy immediately rolled his eyes and fainted.

Opening the portal and throwing the bodies of the two ceremonies back to the gate of the Liangyi Mansion that he had been to before, Lu Xiao shrugged his shoulders under the expressions of the little ladies who wanted to speak and stopped.

"Don't look at me like that, it's hard for this guy to be persuaded by reasoning, and it's not safe for him to continue wandering outside."

After all, Araya was still hiding in the shadows and secretly planning to seize the bodies of the two ceremonies. ’

It's not a long-term solution to often let Liangyi weave sneak out at night to hang out, and after returning to the Garan Hall, Lu Xiao told Orange what happened today.

"Hey~"

Orange patted his forehead with a headache: "Is the dark side of the dual personality, it's really troublesome......"

"Fog Paint."

"Teacher, I'm here."

"I'm going to trouble you more at night in the future, arrange a few ghosts to track the trajectory of Liangyi weaving, and notify me as soon as I find anything abnormal."

"Yes."

The fog-painted ghosts are still very lame in combat, but it's fitting to use a non-physical ghost as a surveillance eye.

……

After returning to Fuyuki City after a rare vacation, Lu Xiao continued to squat at home and worked hard to study the materials related to the Third Law obtained from the Einzberen family.

In order to practice his concept of combining work and rest, Rin would invite Lu Xiao to Tosaka's house every weekend, so that he could temporarily relax from his heavy studies.

Lu Xiao has also been paying attention to the follow-up progress of Guanbuzi City, but Huangye Zonglian seems to be aware that someone is investigating him, and he has been dormant recently.

Orange took the opportunity to snatch a lot of supernatural commissions in the city, so that the fog painting accumulated a lot of experience in actual combat, and also harvested some more powerful evil spirits.

The ghosts sent to monitor Ryoyi Ori did not find anything unusual.

Ori still wanders around at night, chasing the smell of blood to get close to disputed areas, but he never actually kills anyone.

The two ceremonies that control the body during the day have a male classmate who is relatively close to the school, Lu Xiao deliberately paid attention to it, and the name of the male classmate was indeed Hei Tong Kanya.

As the time entered the early autumn of September, Lu Xiao's research on the third method began to come to an end, and the complete puzzle was only the last piece, and he had found the right parts and was working hard to overcome them.

"I see, the sublimation of the soul is not mandatory for whether it is achieved through alchemy, Einzberren just chose the right path, but alchemy is not the only option to the end."

As Lu Xiao's research deepened, the common language between him and Aozaki Orange became more and more, and through the communication with the crown puppeteer, both of them gained a lot of inspiration from each other's magic concepts.

Human energy and time are limited, and most magicians cannot achieve a true sense of longevity or even immortality, so they can only choose their own research projects in a limited life.

Aozaki Orange originally did the same.

Although she revived the basics of rune magic out of interest, she herself did not delve deeper into the runes of rune, instead focusing all her attention on the puppet technique, which earned her a resounding name as a crowned puppeteer.

Orange, who has reached the standard of the crown position of the clock tower, is in a bottleneck, and she can make high-level human figures that are almost indistinguishable from the human body, and even make herself a multi-useful body, but she can't see the way to continue to improve.

This is also one of the reasons why Orange temporarily stopped moving forward and chose to rest in Guanbuzi City.

The Aozaki family is the family that holds the Fifth Law, and Orange has been cultivated as a magical heir since childhood.

However, Orange's magic circuit is not suitable for the extremely destructive Fifth Law, and she herself has a different view of the Root Vortex from her grandfather, who was the holder of the previous generation of Fifth Law.

In the end, Orange's grandfather deprived Orange of his magical inheritance, and passed on the Fifth Law to his sister Aoko Aosaki, who was very lame in magic skills, but the circuit was more in line with the Fifth Law.

Because of this incident, the two sisters had a fierce conflict that endangered each other's lives, which ended in the defeat of Orange.

As the old magician of Aozaki said, although Orange's magic circuit is very good, and she has a terrifying talent enough to be called a genius by the clock tower, she is really not suitable for the fifth method.

On this point, Orange calmed down in the decade-long reflection after the Sisterhood War, and gradually agreed with this view of his grandfather.

Today's Orange is no longer overly attached to the root as she was when she went to the clock tower to study, and she is free from the temptation of the root vortex, but can look at her future magic path from a more objective perspective.

In terms of dolls, the crown puppeteer Orange has almost come to an end, and if he wants to continue to make progress, he can only move closer to the direction of soul research like Araya Zonglian.

The problem of longevity, which is difficult for ordinary magicians to solve, is not worth mentioning in the eyes of oranges.

The puppeteer can change to a younger and more durable body at any time, and theoretically, as long as Orange's soul does not decay over time like the old bugs, her lifespan is endless.

The soul corruption of the dirty inkstone is a wake-up call for all magicians who aspire to immortality, if the problem of soul corruption cannot be solved, even if the body can live a long life, it will eventually lose itself under the corrosion of time.

The study of the soul in the third method is complementary to the puppet technique of the orange.

Lu Xiao learned a lot of puppet-making techniques from Orange that are different from Einzberen's alchemy, and Orange also got inspiration from Lu Xiao about "soul preservation".

……

The Clock Tower is a special space that has been magically compressed, and the tower has been folded through countless magics, and it has a vast space that far exceeds the actual floor space.

In the deepest part of the Clock Tower, there is an office that is vacant most of the time, and the owner of this place is the founder of the Clock Tower's Ore Section, known as the Wizard Marshal and the Second Magician of the Jewel Man, Keshua Zerrich Thubein Ogu.

Due to the peculiarities of the Second Law, Jewel Man spends most of his time wandering between various parallel worlds.

The magician of the clock tower speculated that he had been sitting in his office all along, but in a different parallel world, and it was difficult for people in this world to catch his tracks.

Lorelei Barsermero, who is in charge of the Clock Tower's Law and Political Affairs Section, recently made an unexpected discovery that the jewel who had never seen the dragon in the past had stayed in the office for a month without going missing.

Barthamero has a high level of authority in the Clock Tower, but their people are still very respectful when it comes to true magicians.

"Your Excellency the Second Magician, is there anything we can do to help you?"

The jewel man was an old man with a white beard, a well-groomed beard on his face, and a magnificent and solemn black robe.

Due to a major event thousands of years ago, he was transformed into a Dead Apostle by a powerful True Ancestor during the battle, and his strength has declined a lot while he is seriously aging.

Jewel was a magician after all, and although his power was weakened by the Dead Apostles, he did not have the same strong blood-squirting urge as the other Dead Apostles.

"Your Excellency the Second Magician?"

"Hmm...... Well? ”

The distracted Zelridge finally came back to his senses after Lorelei's repeated calls, and he smiled low and said, "It's nothing, just come here to witness the birth of a new magician." ”

The jewel's tone was too flat, and the minds of Lorelei and the other monarchs who came to pay tribute to the jewel man did not turn around for a moment, and it took a few seconds before they exclaimed in unison.

"What?!"
