No! No way!

The moment this speculation appeared, Celia was frightened.

For herself, death is not terrible, but since she is one of her master's property, she must always ensure that her master's interests are not harmed, and she will definitely not give up hope easily unless she receives a clear death order.

She didn't know what her master wanted to do with her, and the future was not something she could change as a slave, but at least before that, she could help her master a little......

Thinking of this, a hint of brightness appeared in Celia's eyes again.

She pressed her hands against the cold floor, struggling to prop herself up, and she struggled to stand against the wall, then moved to the utility room with small steps.

The ground is dirty, so it should be wiped clean, this is something that the owner ordered before, and it cannot be delayed.

With this conviction, Celia seemed to ignore the physical pain and began to move forward at a slow, but extremely determined pace.

One-step...... Two-step ......

One meter ...... Two meters ......

She gritted her teeth and insisted, not letting her heart slack off.

……

It's a pity that although this distance is not long, some problems cannot be solved by desperate efforts.

As she passed the staircase, Celia suddenly felt a dizziness in her brain, and her whole body fell into a state of confusion, and soon she fell to the side weakly.

"Boom!"

The sound of her body colliding with the handrail of the staircase rang out, and she fell on the steps, losing the last of her strength.

……

At this moment, Sean, who was recovering his mana through meditation in the laboratory, suddenly heard a movement from downstairs, he opened his eyes, frowned slightly, and quickly realized what he had ignored before.

The original contraction of spiritual power was released, and it spread downstairs in a very short time, and when he found out about Celia's condition, Sean was shocked, and immediately ended his meditation, hurriedly pushing the door and walking towards the stairs.

On weekdays, he is quite gentle, even if he occasionally punishes Celia for something, it is just a reminder, and it hardly brings her any pain.

However, since he was attacked, his whole person seems to have become a little strange, not only has a lot of tyrannical emotions in his heart, but he can't even control the severity of his attack, if it weren't for Celia to make a little movement to attract his attention, I'm afraid something bad will happen soon.

But fortunately, it was discovered in time now, and even temporary remedies were not too late, at least for a trainee mage like Sean, as long as Cilia still had a breath, her life would definitely not be in danger.

Coming to Celia's side with some nervousness, Sean raised his hand and shook off an apprentice-level fake life, and immediately used his mental power to determine the injury - internal organs ruptured and accompanied by heavy bleeding.

In the eyes of ordinary people, this situation was almost equivalent to death, but Sean breathed a sigh of relief, and he gently took Celia's cold little hand, intending to use a probationary-level spell with a recovery effect.

The power of the false life soon woke Celia from her stupor, and she opened her eyes a little dazed, staring at Sean with a look of affection and pleading.

The chanting of the incantation rang in her ears, and a faint blue light emanated from the right hand that Sean held with her, washing her body from the inside out like flowing water.

The torture and pain that had entangled her were gone, and with it came a continuous warmth and comfort, and Celia felt the comfort from Sean in a daze, and the expression on her face became extremely peaceful.

"Master, I'm sorry."

After a long time, the countless words in Celia's heart turned into such a sentence, and her crystal tears unconsciously crossed her face, quietly wetting her clothes.

"It's not your fault, stop crying."

After unleashing several spells in a row to completely undo Celia's injuries, Sean reached out and touched her head, the expression on his face becoming a little guilty.

"Still uncomfortable? Go to your room and take a break, and tell me if you feel uncomfortable, don't force yourself. ”

……

"No, no, master, I haven't made breakfast yet."

Hearing Sean comfort herself like this, Celia couldn't control her emotions even more, she kept wiping the tears from her face, and rubbed her head against her master's hand with great gratitude to express her joy.

"You don't need breakfast, the master still has a lot of things to do, you just got injured, and recovery spells can't cheer you up, so it's better to sleep honestly."

Sean rubbed her hair vigorously, then picked her up with one hand and sent her directly to his room.

To be honest, with Celia's previous injuries, it was an incredible miracle that she was able to desperately walk from the door to the staircase on her own.

Especially when she learned that she supported her specific beliefs, Sean had to sigh at her tenacious will and persistence, and at the same time, a trace of pity rose in her heart, and she was even more reluctant to treat her roughly.

"Okay, close your eyes, you'll fall asleep soon."

After helping Celia cover the quilt, Sean leaned over to her and kissed her on the cheek gently, and used a spell to make her feel sleepy, and then walked softly towards the door.

……

……

After walking out of the bedroom door, Sean's face instantly darkened, he was now sure that he had definitely been affected by some kind of strange influence before, otherwise just losing control of his emotions would not have made him like that.

As for the source of the impact?

Sean pulled out the Abyssal Blade in his arms and stared at the dagger with a cold look.

Although there is no evidence, with strong intuition and rigorous reasoning, he has almost completely locked the suspicion on the Abyssal Blade, and it is actually very simple to confirm this matter, just a simple test.

Sean clutched it tightly in his hand and strode out into his yard, where he didn't hesitate to chant the spell that had been activated, then targeted the clouds in the sky.

"Sacrifice!"

A little mana poured into the Abyssal Blade, and Sean's expression suddenly became hideous, and the familiar abyss aura enveloped him, along with that synaesthesia of consciousness - plus imperceptible negative emotions.

"Damn."

Sean raised the dagger in his hand with red eyes, and a black light suddenly shot out from the tip of the knife, rushing into the sky with an incomparable momentum.

After the attack, Sean covered his forehead in exhaustion, gasping for breath and leaning against the door.

He was trying to get his emotions back to normal from that particular state, so that he wouldn't do anything bad again.

"Sure enough...... Is it pollution? ”

His expression suddenly became solemn, and he then repeatedly looked at the Abyssal Blade in his hand.

As expected, the root of the matter is on this dagger that he used as a "hole card".

Normally, this weapon from the abyss would not have gone awry, but once he tried to use its power, he would be unknowingly eroded by the abyss.

Since Sean is the owner of the dagger, it doesn't matter if he's occasionally contaminated while using it, as long as he calms down carefully afterwards, the effect will quickly fade.

But the problem is that if Sean didn't discover the secret in the first place, but became addicted to this incomparable power after using it once, and often relied on it to win battle after battle, then maybe even his mind would be twisted by it in the end, and finally fall into the abyss completely.

On the basis of such speculation, Sean thought that this dagger came from the personal shaping of the will of the abyss, which made a chill suddenly appear in his heart, and even had an urge to throw it away.

It stands to reason that the Abyssal Will shouldn't be interested in a soul like him who has already embarked on the path of a professional, but there are exceptions to everything, and if he is not satisfied after getting Shanna's soul, and even wants to take Sean with him, then it will be called really unlucky.

After thinking about it for a while, Sean finally gave up his original plan and chose to continue holding the Abyssal Blade.

Although there may be a certain amount of risk, after all, the Faeron plane is the territory of the Eye of Judgment, and even if the Abyss Will covets his soul, it can only be obtained by roundabout means, and it is impossible to come and take it by force.

Of course, the most important point is that the Abyssal Blade is the equivalent of the ritual he obtained, and if it is severely manipulated, then the ritual cannot be established, which is the true source of his confidence.

After confirming that he was free from the influence of the abyss, Sean solemnly put away the dagger, he had already made up his mind that he would never use this forbidden power lightly unless he was really facing a very urgent situation.

……

"The upgrade of the staff of reincarnation is urgent."

Sean sighed again and returned to the lab.

As a mage, the temporary loss of his left hand will not affect his actual combat effectiveness, so this matter can be postponed until the reincarnation staff is completed, and there is no need to be in such a hurry.

However, the feeling of a broken arm still made him very uncomfortable, and after carefully weighing the gains and losses, Sean decided to create a temporary left hand for himself in advance, although the effect could not be compared to his former limbs, but it did not make people feel awkward.

After making a simple list and setting the order of things, Sean began to carry out the alchemy experiment step by step, although there were some restrictions in terms of materials, but this was difficult for him, who was quite accomplished in alchemy.

After digging through the locker and finding a few vials of life force potions concocted by the Elven Secret Spring, Sean's face was filled with a satisfied smile.

This is the nourishment that needs to be absorbed after the successful upgrade of the reincarnation staff in the future, but it doesn't hurt to use it in advance, anyway, with the relationship on Reinado's side, it is very simple to get the elven secret spring, and there is no need to treat it as a treasure like before.

In addition, he had a whole bunch of various materials on the test bench, all of which were cheap and not hard to obtain, and even if they were used, it would not be a big deal.

Although it is a temporary left hand, if Sean wants to upgrade it to the official version in the future, it is enough to strengthen it again and let his body adapt to it, which can save a lot of trouble at that time.

……

……

At the same time, the city of Teresa has become a complete mess, and spies from all forces have been dispatched to find out what happened in the battle between apprentice-level professionals not long ago.

According to credible information, a crushing ambush suddenly broke out in a small alley in the middle of Theresa, but surprisingly, the victorious side did not seem to be the prepared ambusher, but the guy who was attacked.

Because the houses near the place where the battle took place were high and remote, and people were afraid that they would be affected, there were no eyewitnesses who could fully describe the whole battle, and everyone had to rely on reasoning to find out the truth little by little.

Judging from the results of the scene, the scope of the battle is not large at the level of the trainee level, and there is no sign of escape on both sides, I don't know if they can't resist or they don't have the will to do so, or they were killed by the other party in an instant.

Upon examination, the charred mass left on the ground seemed to be part of the body of the loser, and the entire battle was completely obscured, and the non-prophetic mages were unable to find any clues with their half-baked prophetic spells.

……

But maybe there were some rumors leaking out in some places, and before everyone could react, the truth of the matter came out.

It turned out that the incident that caused the city of Teresa to boil was a planned murder and the first confrontation between the two forces, which were already tense.

Reinado, and the group of slave traders who had just arrived in Teresa City, the conflict between them had been raging for a long time, and even spread to the upper circles around Teresa City.

It's been known that the two groups like to go toe-to-toe at every turn, but so far, it's their forces and their respective apprentices who have been in conflict on the surface, and at the apprenticeship level, they've maintained a semblance of harmony.

But seeing that Reinado's power is getting bigger and bigger, the slave traders who have been lucky enough to run over are not happy anymore.

Although they can't do anything to Earl Coburn, a war hero and apprentice professional, or stop him from soliciting people everywhere, it would be a great deterrent if they could sneak in and kill the apprentice professionals under his influence.

So in this case, after a careful study, the group of guys first set their eyes on Sean's body.

There is no way, although it is not clear that Sean's specific professional level, but according to the information they inquired, Sean is a trainee-level professional who has only been promoted recently, and he is also a mage who mainly cultivates the gold system, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a very good target.
