"The so-called black magic is not a power borrowed from the mouth of the Holy See and the devil, this is the Holy See's slander against our wizards." In the dark forest, a black cat stared at the turquoise gaze and spat out the words, "We trade not only with the devil, but also with magical creatures such as fairies and elves, and borrow their powers. ”

Fairies and elves?

The elf was familiar with the word by his ears and eyes, but fairy, isn't that the word of the East? But if you think about it, there are really records of fairies in Grimm's fairy tales, and in "Sleeping Beauty", the fairy cursed the princess to die because she didn't receive an invitation.

"It seems that the fairies are not very good-tempered......

"The so-called trade is a contract, when you want to perform some kind of black magic, you can sign a contract with elves, devils and other creatures, borrow their power to complete your magic, and this medium is the contract text."

The black cat walked down and got into the cabin, and after a while, he took out a crow pen, "This crow pen is made of the wing feathers of the black crow, and it will be appreciated by the devil when you use it to write the text of the contract, but most fairies don't like the crow pen, and you must use a quill pen to write the contract text when you sign a contract with them." ”

"Teacher, are you saying that each species, or each person, has something they like, and if we want to sign a contract with them, we will use what they like?"

"It can be understood in this way, but it is not entirely true, because whether it is an elf or a fairy or a devil, they are not human, they are magical creatures, and in fact, the object of the contract we have to sign is not the human species."

"Whether it looks human or not, you have to remember and don't trust them, because many species like to disguise themselves as humans to confuse us."

The black cat said and ran in again, and after a while, took out a piece of parchment, "This is parchment, you write the contract on it, and the devils and fairies will respond to your contract, but you have to be careful, the elves don't like parchment, or the elves don't like any harm...... If you want to borrow the power of the elves, write it on the ground, otherwise you will have a high chance of failing when you borrow the power of the elves to perform black magic. ”

"Does the dark arts fail?"

"Yes, dark magic fails, and there are many reasons why it fails, but the most common reason is that you don't get a response from the corresponding magical creature when you release a dark magic, so your dark magic fails."

"Every ...... Do you need it every time? Li Chao heard the key, "Could it be that wizards use black magic, and every time they need to sign a new contract?" ”

It wasn't at all like magic he remembered.

The magic in his impression is that he can recite spells, and he can cast world-destroying magic, and some don't even want spells, and the magic comes out with a wave of his hand, how did he get here, and he actually had to sign a contract with the devils to cast magic first? No, it's black magic.

"Absolutely."

“……。”

"Isn't it needed?" The black cat glanced at Li Chao strangely, "What you don't need to sign a contract is Potions in black magic, but although Potions is classified into black magic by the Holy See, it actually has nothing to do with black magic." ”

Do you need it......

Of course not, they're all like this, I haven't seen it first depict various contract words and then release it when the Book of Ciric releases magic, and the Book of Shirek casually casts magic, how come you need to depict various contract words here, first reach a contract with creatures such as elves and devils and then release magic.

Li Chao really wanted to tell the magic in his memory, but he kept his mouth shut, what if the strange black cat asked him why he knew these things? No one knows if there is any black magic in those strange black arts that can search for memories, and what if there is? Aroused the interest of this black cat, he was exposed as soon as he searched for it.

After thinking for a while, Li Chao remembered a sideline inquiry, "I just think that every time I cast a spell, I need to engrave the contract text, and trade with magical creatures such as elves and devils, and it is very troublesome to use their power to cast spells." ”

"Trouble?" The black cat wondered, "Why do you feel troubled?" ”

"Uh......."

Li Chao thought for a while and said: "Suppose we wizards fight with others, others will not be stupid and wait for us to slowly carve the contract text, they will definitely attack us suddenly while we haven't carved the contract text yet, which is very bad for us, so I think it's troublesome." ”

"Why don't you fight him? You can secretly curse him behind his back, can't you just curse him to death? ”

"I said positive."

"Wizards never fight people head-on." The black cat thought it was strange, "Why do you think wizards would fight people head-on?" ”

“……。”

Li Chao was speechless, he thought about it carefully, wizards really don't fight head-on with others, the queen in "Snow White", the witch in "The Frog Prince", and the fairy in "Cinderella", all have wonderful powers, but they are not good at frontal battles at all, the queen was caught by soldiers when she was attending a banquet, and then danced to death in red-hot iron shoes.

But Li Chao was still a little unwilling, and he continued to ask, "What if I go to the battlefield?" The sword has no eyes, and the enemies on the battlefield will not wait for us to slowly carve the text of the contract. ”

"Why are we going to war?" The black cat asked rhetorically, "My disciple Hannibal, why do you have so many whimsical ideas?" ”

"Uh......."

Li Chao was embarrassed for a moment, and immediately thought of an excuse, "I just think that we wizards need instant magic." ”

"That's why you're asking so much?"

"Yes."

"Your idea is wonderful, but how can it be instantaneous?"

How can it be instantaneous? Li Chao instinctively touched the Book of Ciric hidden in his clothes, and had an idea, "Magic Book!" ”

The more he thought about it, the more feasible he felt, and hurriedly added, "We can write the contract text in the magic book, and when needed, we can directly use the magic book to communicate with magical creatures and release black magic, so that we don't need to re-depict the contract text every time we release black magic." ”

The black cat's green eyes stared straight at Li Chao, and the faint light radiated in the dark night, which made Li Chao's heart a little hairy, and after a while, the black cat spoke, "Great idea, how did you come up with it?" ”
