Section C: Slow Fall and Levitation (Beverly)
The reason why forbidden art is forbidden art is that it is magic that destroys the laws of nature and the order of the world. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info such as resurrection, soul harvesting, etc. Of course, they all ask for a price.
The costs are varied. For example, life, blood, soul, etc., are very common.
There is a kind of evil magic, and the condition of release is the sacrifice of one of your loved ones.
It's crazy. Anyone who wants to unleash this kind of magic is probably no longer worthy of having a loved one.
The criteria for dividing forbidden techniques are slightly vague. But it's basically magic that costs a lot of money, and often it costs a lot of money. Of course, once the forbidden technique is released, the power must be considerable.
Returning to the topic just now, the person who performed the forbidden technique of "rebirth from the fire" was a woman. After that, she continued to die in the flames and was reborn again. Such an infinite loop finally drove her crazy.
This is not the case with immortal birds that have taken on human form. The eternal flame of life is completely different from ordinary forbidden arts.
The whereabouts of the woman who performed the Forbidden Spell of Rebirth are unknown, but she is said to have been seen near the volcano and the Ember Glades. That man is not bad by nature, but he has pursued eternal life excessively, and he has embarked on the road of no return out of curiosity about the study of magic. As a result, there are often high-level magic apprentices who want them not to repeat the mistakes of the past.
It is not unreasonable that many magic academies now demonize forbidden arts. After all, they are too tempting for mage apprentices who have just ventured into the wizarding world. So, at least avoid them being drawn to research in the first place. Once you delve into the field of studying forbidden arts, you will inevitably have the idea of trying. After a long time, those skilled mages will study it sooner or later.
Although many forbidden techniques are dangerous to release, it does not stop the inquirer from delving into it. Therefore, some academies will deliberately teach some forbidden techniques that are not too dangerous after being screened for them to study to satisfy their curiosity. And the most vicious sorcery literature is sealed forever.
For example, Director Leo's library has a forbidden book section filled with forbidden books.
In fact, there are quite a lot of people who are blinded by power, and internal management is also easy to breed internal ghosts. Many people who guard forbidden books are the most susceptible to being corrupted and tempted. Some of the enchanted forbidden books will actively call out to these caretakers, trying to lure them into depravity and become dark mages.
If you are not strong-willed, it is easy to lose control of yourself. The thirst for power will also ruin them.
At first, people thought it would be nice to just look at it, just like taking drugs. However, as long as you see it once, it is easy to be fascinated and continue to watch. The more I look, the more restless my soul becomes, and the more I want to try.
So the old man Leo is really a very powerful guy, he can read so many banned books without falling for decades. This "awesome" is more reflected in spiritual power. If he really goes crazy, I'm afraid that Adya Mage Academy will have to die a lot before he can suppress it.
As for why the forbidden books weren't destroyed, mainly because some of them were too powerful to be destroyed, while others were left to protect the magic from disappearing completely. Forbidden magic is a contradiction in the wizarding world: it needs to be controlled because of danger, but it can't be allowed to disappear, after all, it is also a great masterpiece of magic. There will always be a place for use in the future.
...... After all, most forbidden arts are not evil in themselves, but the people who control them are evil. Facing the threat of some terrifying enemies, such as demon gods and some ancient monsters, you still need forbidden magic to deal with.
Moreover, those forbidden techniques that are mastered by high-level mages and certain families are used in very legitimate places. Although they are expensive, they must be used when they are not needed. Ordinary magic can't deal with too much power.
In order to obtain comparable magical power, it is sometimes necessary to exchange the cost of souls and lives, and defeat the enemy through the use of magic that is far superior to ordinary magic.
Of course, those who have this kind of consciousness and sacrifice themselves to release the forbidden art are well-deserved heroes.
In fact, the key lies in the cost: they often do not require the liberator to pay any price, but to others. Such as sacrificing other people's souls and so on.
Necromancy is often like that. So many people think that all necromancy is forbidden. But this is certainly not accurate.
This Abyss Knight must have been unable to leave as before because of the Demon Scar's reaction, so what was his choice? Beverly watched the Abyss Knight's actions through the Demon Eye, and thought: Probably going out through the window. This is the second floor, and you can't fall to your death if you jump.
Some very useful magic, such as slow fall and levitation, can protect people who fall from high altitudes from falling to their deaths. But because they don't last long, it's embarrassing to say that they are released too early in the air and fall to their deaths. (Lucina spares the knight while fighting the dragon knight Alice's clone, causing him not to fall to his death)
However, slowing down the technique also requires considerable concentration. After all, the fall is only a moment, and there will not be much time to reflect. If you are nervous or excited, you may not be able to release the magic that you are familiar with.
Good mages know that they should try to conserve as much magic as possible, and at the same time, they should not overdraw, but always have some in case they need it. For example, when you are knocked into the air, if you don't have enough mana to release the Slow Fall Technique and Levitation Technique, you will really die too aggrieved.
It's really big news if a mage falls to his death these days. If this matter gets out, it will be written on his tombstone in the future: This is actually a mage who fell to his death, can you believe it?
Of course, it's not surprising that a mage who doesn't master it well with fast casting can also fall to his death.
Traditional mage academies are relatively large castles. In some places, there are no stairs, no teleportation circles, and no flying mounts, so if you want to go down, you have to slow down your fall or levitation. It's a great way to keep idlers out of the way.
So occasionally there will be students who are not good at learning and falling to their deaths, and there is no way to do it. After all, it is an accidental casualty.
But don't worry too much. After all, sometimes there are magic guards watching nearby. They will save the fallen students in time. Of course, they can sometimes be silly and can't slow down the fall, but it must be neat to clean up the corpse.
Aya, who can fly, is often not too interested in learning slow-falling and levitation techniques, so it is necessary to force them to do so. Because sooner or later, you will be able to use it, and maybe you will be able to save others.
