Chapter 61: Procrastination
"Well, why bother? I just want to be a young and beautiful, graceful, and promising lady from a wealthy family, the last time I accidentally found the body of a black fat woman was really disgusting to me, can you imagine that I have to use magic every night to remove the fat between my belly? ”
Rebecca crossed her hands on her hips, rolled her eyes and said, "Hoodie boy, you and I have nothing to do with each other, how good is it to go our separate ways, do you have to meddle and debunk me?" ”
"It's not a nosy," Leon said nonchalantly, "I'm very curious about magic, and it would be nice to find a mage who is proficient in magic to talk to." ”
The corners of Rebecca's mouth twitched, and she sighed: "If you want to exchange spells, then you can wait for me to finish this ticket, isn't it just communication?" What a feud you have to torture me like this. ”
“.... I'm talking about communication by draining all your knowledge and information, and then keeping your soul as a collection, and if you can accept that, then we can come to an agreement. ”
Leon spoke with a relaxed face about the terrible proposition of playing with other people's souls,
He had always thought that compared to those demonic giants who slaughtered hundreds of thousands of living beings and refining magic weapons at every turn, his own extraterrestrial warlock who could only be more serious on academic issues was simply simple and pure to the extreme.
As for the mayflies and insects that he inadvertently crushed in front of the road on the path of his pursuit..... It is said that it is a worm, so naturally it is not a meaningful proposition worth discussing.
Sure enough, after hearing Leon's words, the expression on Rebecca's face suddenly sank, and even Konstantin took a few steps back silently, whether in the Western or Eastern mystical world, playing with other people's souls is a taboo thing that can be done and cannot be said.
"Then again,"
Leon pushed his sunglasses, tilted his head and said, "I was hesitant to call you Mr. Magician?" It's still Miss Sorcerer, but since you specifically hallucinated Jacqueline and Abigail during the Soul Ceremony, you should be a woman. ”
"You guessed it, I'm a lady." Jacqueline, or Miss Magician's soul drove Jacqueline's body to turn around with a dark humor to show her graceful figure, "But please be careful never to tell a woman how old she is. ”
"In 1780,"
The person who took over the conversation was named Konstantin, he threw the cigarette between his fingers on the ground, exhaled a puff of smoke, squinted his eyes and said: "Rebecca Miller was born in an aristocratic family in London, England, and showed a talent for learning beyond ordinary people since she was a child, and when she grew up, she was obsessed with naturalism.
Raised as a boy since childhood, he became a man in the upper class and academic circles of England as a man of John Miller, and began to study the occult after being invited to join the Roscrocion, going too far and too far in magic to be feared by other occultists. ”
"Not fear, to be exact, it's awe." Rebecca replied with a sweet smile, "I have glimpsed the mystery of eternal life, while others accuse me of violating the sanctuary shrouded by God's authority, and these apostates, who are hated by the Holy See, know in their hearts that I am right, but they have to hunt me down to alleviate some of their fears." ”
Konstantin patted his cuffs and said without raising his head: "That's why Mary Shelley, who is also a member of the Rosicrucian with you, wrote the article "Frankenstein" to express her anger at you in a subtle way. ”
"No, the full title of the book Frankenstein is Frankenstein – The Story of Modern Prometheus, can't you see it? Although Mary had no occult talent, she recognized me, adored me, and would have run away with me if it weren't for her damned husband. ”
Rebecca disdainfully told the shocking truth of history, but Konstantin ignored it, spat heavily on the ground, turned his head to Leon, and said, "Do you think you are smart?" Do you know how wrong you are?
She's a powerful magician, and I've tried to pretend I don't know she's an imposter when I'm walking on the astral plane, and when she lets her guard down, I use a spell to banish Jacqueline, but it's all over now. ”
Leon sneered and replied, "Forcibly driving a soul out of the body with a spell will cause permanent damage to this body, and even if Jacqueline's soul returns again, she will become a vegetative person and cannot move, like a puddle of rotten meat." What's the difference between Jacqueline and dead? ”
"This is already the best solution." Konstantin said indifferently: "I only promised to do my best to bring Jacqueline back, I didn't promise more." ”
While the two were talking, Rebecca sighed, raised her right hand flat, and a raging cyan flame erupted from her palm, "I said, can you respect me?" ”
The fierce flames rising from the palm of her hand suddenly split into countless graceful vines composed of firelight, forming an intricate circle in the air, pendant with layers of rune runes,
Even ordinary people like Abigail and Harris who have no supernatural abilities can realize the current crisis based on the consciousness of crisis that screams madly from their subconscious.
One by one, they froze in place like small animals stiffened between the sharp teeth of a prehistoric beast, opening their eyes and staring at the gradually expanding arcane magic circle, their bodies constantly trembling slightly.
"Phew, this young body is different, much stronger than that old black woman," Rebecca smiled with satisfaction, raised her left hand, and created another circle out of thin air, "Now it's barely about one-tenth of my peak, although it's not much, but it's more than enough to solve your poke."
When the expressions on Konstantin and Leon's faces turned solemn, Rebecca nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "To be honest, you two clowns really me off a bit, and even dared to smash my head on the coffee table and pinch my neck to ask questions, if it weren't for the delay to get used to this body, I would have burned you all into charcoal." ”
Li Ang sighed, tilted his head, and asked, "..... When did you have the illusion that you alone were stalling for time. ”
