Chapter 043: Fellowes' Gift
"So you want to give me the contract?" Fellowos asked.
"Yes," Roy replied after some explanation. "I'm going to leave here in a short time, and as you can see, Asterius is actually disembodied, and he must have a magical supply if he wants to maintain his existence.
If he left me, he would either devour the magic stone every day, or he would have to make a pact with someone else.
You're the only one you can trust with the highest magic power, and you don't usually go to the front lines of battle, so if it's convenient, become Astherios' new contractor. ”
This time, Roy did not choose Bell, the protagonist of this world, as the new master, on the one hand, because from the perspective of Asterios, the familiarity and trust of Ferros, who has always helped the heretics, is higher than that of Bell, who has less contact.
On the other hand, Servants often need a lot of mana, and Asterius, as a Berserker, is difficult to obtain mana from other resources without Caster's position crafting or Archer's solo action, which is a burden to the Master.
Although Bell has improved a lot, his current level and magic power are incomparable to those of Fellowes. And Bell, who has always been on the front line of the battle, is likely to affect his battle and even be in danger if he still needs to bear the calf, a big mana eater.
All things considered, although Roy was inclined to take care of the Hestian family, he still decided to make Fellowes the new master.
Anyway, after experiencing the previous plane, Roy is used to being a tool man and a servant delivery person, and everything is based on the will of the servant.
As for himself, he is not prepared to remain in the wrong plane.
Although this plane is rich in materials, Roy, as an unidentified outsider, does not intend to linger in a world full of gods for a long time, on the other hand, these days of training, Roy's gift system, the magic power has increased greatly.
These magic powers are not extracted from the magic circuit, but are independent of the magic circuit, born directly from the soul and extended into the body, much to Roy's satisfaction.
However, the lack of other attributes is growing very slowly.
Roy, who was strengthened by the magic of the Holy Grail, has quite a good magic talent, but if you talk about martial arts talent, it can only be said to be average.
After all, he had only taken a self-defense class at the Clock Tower, and he had taken Bajiquan, and his fighting was quite average.
So in ordinary battles, he will not choose hand-to-hand combat, after all, at the age of 11, he has no capital in hand-to-hand combat.
Cautious by nature, he will always choose ways to avoid danger. This also leads to the fact that in the training, in addition to the rapid growth of mana value, many other attributes such as strength and agility increase very slowly.
For this reason, Roy thought of a countermeasure that if he could obtain the card of Asterius, he could become a power-type fighter by replacing him, and then he could concentrate on improving attributes such as strength.
It is the best choice for all kinds of indicators to grow to the limit and then upgrade.
Almost every time, Bell, who brushes various indicators above S and then upgrades, is obviously stronger than other adventurers of the same level, and often skips the level of challenges.
In order to obtain Asterius' card and develop it in a balanced manner, Roy decided to end this spirit child transfer and obtain the replacement permission as soon as possible.
To this, Asterius was very cooperative.
Mainly people who treat him as a "human", Asterius is very good at talking.
He answered the call, mainly to help the heretics and to experience life at the same time.
Now that the heretics had gained a foundation for refuge, Asterius had approved of the completion of the contract.
After a period of spiritual records, he obtained the information of the calf's spiritual base, and as long as he left this plane, he could officially end the contract and obtain the replacement permission of Asterius.
"Then, I'll transplant the Spell to you."
After explaining what the spell was, Roy used psychic healing to remove the remaining two spells.
Before, when the calf covered the artificial maze with a treasure, one was used, and now there are only two left.
"It's on the bone, is it okay?"
Ferros only has a skeleton left, but fortunately, the transplantation of the spell is not so strict.
Luvia's ancestors also took off the spell and kept it for a long time, and gave it to Roy's teacher, Ermelo II.
Looking at the two-petal pattern carved into the skull's wrist bone, Roy was satisfied.
Ferros, on the other hand, gave Roy a lot of gifts as a reward.
After living for 800 years, as a skeleton, Fellowes had low material needs, but his research became more and more sophisticated, and he also accumulated a lot of wealth.
After a period of contact, Fellowes saw Roy as a like-minded person and a late junior.
The gift includes records of many secret arts, a large number of materials and magic items, and the most precious -
"It's so precious, I'm a little embarrassed to have it, the magic book, and it's two."
Roy, who was holding two magic books, was a little reluctant to refuse, but still said.
"It's too expensive, and I can't pay enough for so much ......"
Fellowes waved his hand:
"No, your help to the heretics is very important. It can even be said to surpass my efforts over the past few decades.
With the foundation laid by your arrangement and operation, sooner or later, heretics will be able to get along with people openly.
This is something that not only me, but also the god Ouranos is grateful to you.
Moreover, this kind of thing is very precious to other people, but I have saved several copies over the past few hundred years, and my three magic slots are full, so it is not of much use to continue to stay with me, so I will simply give it to you.
But I don't recommend you use it right away.
Magic can only awaken three under the grace system, so each one is especially important.
It would be best if you could get useful magic.
I have a magic that I haven't used once in eight hundred years. That's why I've developed so many secret methods.
You have just awakened your first magic, so you can say that you have obtained a magic that matches the current special craft.
If you want to stick to the path of magic in the future, I recommend that you wait until you continue to level up, and then use it if you develop a 'magical' or 'mysterious' ability.
According to my guess, that would be more likely to result in more suitable magic. ”
Fellowes taught earnestly.
Changing two magic books for a servant is not a loss for Fellowes, and Roy's side is even more profitable.
After all, Asterius also wants to stay in this world where he can get along with humans, and he doesn't plan to return to Valhalla.
The handover went smoothly, and Roy returned to the Hestian clan with a generous gift and began to arrange for his departure.
