Chapter Forty-Nine: It's Finally Here
- "I only know a thing or two about magic. β’ With *Dream β’ Small *.lΔ"
Regarding Mu Xiu's words that will definitely kill people in some cases, Shiro Ashiya, who doesn't know the inside story and doesn't know why, has no doubts.
Because he still retains a relatively weak magic power at this time, although it is so weak that it can only be used to perform hypnotism on ordinary people, to charm humans or something.
But there is and nothing is a world of difference in itself, and the breakthrough from zero to one is no joke. No matter how faint it is, as long as it has magical power, it is fundamentally different from the previous mysteriousness.
Therefore, from the eyes of Shiro Ashiya or the demon generalissimo Ishel, although the young man in front of him himself gives people an inexplicable sense of incongruity that does not match his appearance and age, there is nothing special other than that-
Mu Xiu's body didn't seem to have any momentum at all, and his aura was as ordinary as that of an ordinary person, and he looked like an ordinary ten-year-old human teenager.
Shiro Ashiya didn't feel any danger from the other party, and there were no energy fluctuations in the other party's body.
Yes, not only is there no magic fluctuation, but there is not even any form of mystical power...... It's just empty.
Shiro Ashiya is convinced that he can't be mistaken, so he thinks that the other party may really be just an ordinary human who has come into contact with the other side of the world, but has no deep understanding.
So he just silently kept the term "magic" in his heart-
Maybe that's the best, as long as the other party provides himself and the Demon King with a way to contact the mysterious side of this world, and there is no need to involve him in other things.
This Mr. Demon didn't understand that the subtext of the phrase "I know a thing or two about magic" was actually "You don't know anything about power......
He also didn't know that there were people in the world who could completely control their own state, no matter how powerful the power was, they could be restrained so that they would not leak out at all, just like a bottomless deep pool, but a pool of deep water was an ancient well without waves.
As for energy, Mu Xiu really doesn't have an energy circulation system in his body. However, he doesn't need it for the time being, the electromagnetic force of the outside world is completely enough to replace the lower position.
For the time being, it's completely sufficient.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Just like the Sanzenin family, the main house of the Saginomiya family is also a very large mansion, but the former is a Western-style villa, and the latter is pure Japanese.
It's just that Mu Xiu can't figure out how such a huge super house in Tokyo seems to be more than just a family or two in Tokyo, but can be squeezed into the entire city circle.
The city seems to be much bigger than it seems.
Egret Palace Yicheng was waiting for Mu Xiu's arrival outside the door on time this time, she was wearing a light blue kimono with a shallow smile on her face, which made people feel close just by seeing it.
"Miss Yicheng, I'm here, I shouldn't be late." Mu Xiu naturally raised his hand and greeted in a relaxed tone.
He looked up at both sides, only to see the tall white walls of the mansion starting from the gate in front of him, extending out on both sides, and seemed to be endless as far as the eye could see.
Trees within the wall grew beyond the height of the wall.
Shiro Ashiya followed behind Mu Xiu in an orderly manner, standing straight and upright.
He is determined to take advantage of any opportunity from now on, this is a matter related to the mysterious side of this world, and it is also the key to determining whether he and the Demon King will be able to make a comeback one day and counterattack back.
It is the wish of the Demon King Satan to conquer the world guarded by the gods, Ante Isura, the continent of the Holy Cross, to dominate human society and establish an ideal kingdom for all dark monsters.
And he Ashiya...... No, Demon Generalissimo Ischel just regards assisting the Demon King Satan's hegemony as the meaning of his existence.
"No, Mr. Mu Xiu came very just in time, I took the liberty to suddenly send out an invitation...... " Egregory Isumi said softly, and then his eyes turned to Shiro Ashiya behind Mu Xiu, and a trace of doubt flashed.
"Well, may I ask you, ...... this one?"
"Shiro Ashiya, I'll be Aster's butler from today onwards, please advise."
Shiro Ashiya took the initiative to step forward, bowed, and folded his arms in front of him, performing a very standard and decent etiquette, and introduced himself. If you only look at the surface, he is very qualified, at least impeccable in terms of etiquette.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"Mr. Muxiu's butler? Well, that's rude, please advise me......"
Egremiya Isumi stared at him for a long time before he seemed to come back to his senses, nodded slowly and said softly. But for some reason, it always feels like her tone is a little weird.
The demon youth could only pretend that he didn't know anything, and try to maintain a natural expression to return to the position where he was standing.
He could feel that the kimono girl's body contained an extremely powerful certain energy, and it was also the kind of attribute that made a demon like himself feel the most headache. It seems to be very unstable now, but it is certain that the energy is there.
However, the reverse is also true, and the other party can definitely perceive the wavelength of the magic in their own body.
I'm afraid that's it, so that the other party thinks that there may be something wrong with their identity......
He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, and at the same time his mouth was bitter, because at this time, he deeply realized that he had taken it for granted before, and it was very likely that things would not go as smoothly as he imagined.
ββThe obvious problem of energy attributes restraining each other is enough to make the spiritual power people who encounter it subconsciously doubt themselves.
There will also be settings such as "initial vigilance +2" and "initial faction hostility +...... I have to say, it's a sad story.
"That, it's not good to stand outside the door and talk, why don't you invite me in for a cup of tea before leaving?"
Mu Xiu saw the eyes of the kimono girl, just smiled, and casually changed the topic.
"Well, Mr. Muxiu, please come in with me." After Isumi made sure that the other party seemed to know this, he didn't say much, anyway, the other party must be able to handle the whole thing.
She turned and led the two of them into the gate.
Looking at the kimono girl leading the way elegantly in front, with that serious and calm appearance, Mu Xiu couldn't help but secretly admire. Because at this time, Egremiya Yicheng was as serious as the other eldest ladies he knew.
Sure enough, no matter how natural she is, she is a genuine lady, and she will never drop the chain when necessary...... Right?
But this thought was ruthlessly shattered after he followed Esumi of Egremiya into the door and walked around the vast mansion for an hour.
"Well, Aster, this seems like we've been here for the third time." Shiro Ashiya's expression remained unchanged, but he quietly reminded that he had begun to enter the role.
"Well, Miss Izumi, may I ask...... Why haven't you gotten to the main house yet? β
Mu Xiu couldn't help but sigh, he didn't want to break this matter, but it seemed that even if he gave another day, Egret Palace Yicheng probably couldn't find the right path.
Even if this is actually her own home, and it is only a simple route from the door to the main house.
Finally couldn't hide it anymore, the black-haired kimono girl's body stiffened slightly, and then she turned around and blushed her little face, and after hesitating for a long time, she mustered up the courage to say-
"Mr. Muxiu, please make this your home......
She probably also knew how terrible her talent was, and chose to give up in frustration, the more she talked, the quieter she became, and finally lowered her head and twisted her white tender hands with each other uneasily.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"Miss Yicheng, I want to say this to you too." Mu Xiu was silent for a while, and then didn't turn his head to say this.
Shiro Ashiya was almost messy in the wind, he thought it would be for some other more special reason, but he didn't expect that it would be the simple owner's family who got lost in his own home!
Who would dare to believe this?
β¦β¦..
β¦β¦
"Is it because of the instability of spiritual power?"
Holding the teacup in both hands, the beautiful brown of the tea soup was reflected in his eyes, Mu Xiu, who was also kneeling on the tatami mat, looked at the kimono girl in front of him, nodded slightly, and the corners of his mouth twitched-
"Although I'm very happy that Miss Yicheng thought of asking me for help at the first time, I really don't have anything to do about it."
According to the original plot, it was indeed during this period of time that Egret Palace Yicheng temporarily lost her strength, or was unable to use her strength, because of a failed spirit elimination, so Mu Xiu was not surprised.
He took another closer look at the kimono girl and confirmed that the spiritual power fluctuations on the other party's body were as strong and unstable as ever, which meant that her spiritual power was not gone, but could not be used for some reason.
And it can be determined that it is not a problem of being sealed by an external force or something, it is simply her own problem, such as not having a stable mentality, doubting her own ability, and not being confident enough...... And so on and so forth.
After all, if it was really spiritual power that was objectively restricted, Mu Xiu still had a way, but he really couldn't help in this state.
He only knows magic, but he doesn't know psychology.
"yes, actually, I was presumptuous."
Egret Palace Izumi was not so disappointed, she had asked for help this time with the idea of what was possible, and she didn't have to get a solution from Mu Xiu. And this time she invited the other party over, in fact, there was something else.
"Mr. Mu Xiu, I invited you here this time, in fact, I am entrusted by the Ministry of the Environment, please ask if you are willing to join the spiritual industry? Just a simple registration......"
After a slight hesitation, she whispered with the help of the action of drinking tea, "Whether it is to join the exorcist family or join the official organization of the Ministry of the Environment, it is no problem. β
β¦β¦ Is it finally here?
Mu Xiu's expression was calm and natural, he blinked his eyes, and asked easily, "Miss Yicheng, to be honest...... What exactly does the Ministry of the Environment think, or how far does they want me to do it? β
The greater the ability, it is not the responsibility that comes with it, but it is inevitable that others will expect more from you and subconsciously think that you should take on greater responsibility.
Mu Xiu knew this, so naturally he would not have any dissatisfied thoughts, and he was indeed ready to become more proactive, so the Ministry of the Environment was now sending the steps to his door, which was exactly what he wanted.
"Because of the fallen evil spirit of the Santuhe family before, now the killing stones all over the world have been awakened, and the spiritual pressure observed by the spiritual industry is several times stronger than before, and it is still rising......
Egremiya Isumi didn't answer this question head-on, but thought about it for a while and chose such an angle to cut into.
"The number and intensity of evil spirits have also increased considerably, and there seems to be information that new species have appeared recently, but it has not yet been conclusively confirmed."
