"Memory"

A simple application of magic.

Specifically, it condenses the magic power in the brain, stimulates the brain to operate, and achieves a short-term "super-effective memory" effect.

Of course, depending on the user's own constitution and brain tolerance, the time limit for the use of this ability may be long or short.

With Natsuki's current situation, "five minutes" is probably the limit, but it is completely sufficient.

You know, what he has in his hands right now is a complete system of witchcraft, not only white witchcraft, but also black witchcraft before the improvement, which is a rare treasure anywhere.

Who wouldn't be tempted not to venture into the lower world to wander or accidentally fall to get the key to touch the extraordinary?

Even if they can't have magical power due to the limitations of the world, many witchcraft don't need the aid of magical power, which undoubtedly shows a new path for ordinary people.

Of course, this path has always existed, but the Federation cannot make it public.

"Do not spread the power of the supernatural"

It is also the highest federal regulation for the restrictions on fallers and returnees, and once discovered, it is wanted all over the world.

But none of this has anything to do with Natsuki, this "Wizard's Codex" has undoubtedly added a hole card to him, and he has to get his hands on everything, not to mention that Sohivia's arrival has also caused him trouble.

And as I said before, although the power system of the witchcraft world itself is not strong, it has a lot of potential, especially the fact that it can communicate with other worlds, which is attractive enough!

"Thank you, I've read it, it's a very interesting codex."

In less than a minute, Natsuki closed the note and handed it back to Lawrence.

Of course, he had only memorized all the contents of the Codex now, and had not yet digested them, which would take some time.

But this was enough to solve the current situation, and he found that there was a better way to deal with it than to directly destroy the magic circle, and it could directly solve this secret realm.

So, he sat down again, smiled at the stunned Lawrence, and whispered:

"You want to use this circle to absorb my life force, sacrifice me, and see if you can resurrect your wife, right?

I'm sorry, but I can tell you responsibly that sacrificing me alone is not enough, and that my strength is not as you think, as you think, to replace the resurrection ritual.

Mr. Lawrence, I have to say that you are very kind, and you are not willing to trick more people into filling this circle, otherwise you would have done it a long time ago......

And the reason why you chose me is probably because you saw my ability before you made a temporary decision, am I right? ”

“……”

"You've got caught, I'll admit, and I'm sorry for that."

A minute passed, nothing happened, and Lawrence knew that he should have failed.

At this time, his eyes were full of remorse, and there was a touch of helplessness and happiness that was difficult to hide.

As Natsuki said, he doesn't actually want to kill, which is not an easy thing for a person who has a good life......

If he hadn't seen that it was possible to resurrect his deceased wife with Natsuki's life alone, he wouldn't have been able to have Natsuki come in here with a lot of brains.

After a moment, Lawrence slowly sat back on the bed, his originally straight back also slumped, and he was waiting for Natsuki's disposal.

At this point, he had no murderous intent, and at the same time, he had no other means, and he knew that it was time for him to pay the price......

"Actually, things don't need to be so troublesome at all, I can help you, isn't it vitality? What I have here is. ”

But who would have thought that at this time, Xia Mu said such a sentence that Lawrence did not expect.

"Huh? What do you mean? ”

Lawrence raised his head instantly, only to find that Natsuki was holding the pendant in one hand and facing the center of the pentagram with the palm of the other, and the emerald green light in his palm lit up.

This is the ability of the [Healing Witch] that Natsuki has cast before, and its essence is to transform magic into condensed life force, similar to Orsian's "pseudo-life force", which can be used as the "fuel" of the formation and open the ritual!

For Lawrence, the reason why he had to choose to fill it with human life was because the alternative materials on the notes were simply not available in this world.

Natsuki is different, magic power is already ever-changing, the essence of energy is much more advanced than magic power, plus his own memory, he can naturally solve this problem.

Soon, with the infusion of emerald green magic, the entire circle finally began to light up and slowly operate......

An obscure and esoteric aura began to permeate the bedroom, and everything around began to vibrate, and a gray mist rose from the center of the pentagram and slowly burrowed into the floor.

Ten minutes or so passed, the light of the circle was extinguished, and everything around me was calm again.

Lawrence looked expectantly left and right, as if looking for his wife.

"Don't worry, she's back, please wait a moment."

Through [Life Sense] Natsuki has sensed Monica's presence, but it is not in the bedroom.

A watch shop on the ground floor.

on the worktop.

The pocket watch, which had been lying quietly and had not yet been completed, was suddenly gently picked up by a palm wearing white gloves and slender fingers.

Looking at the words engraved on the inside of the cover, the owner of the palm couldn't help but cover his mouth, and tears burst instantly.

Without the slightest hesitation, she grabbed her pocket watch and skirt, unlocked the door behind her, and rushed straight upstairs.

"Lawrence!"

She cried out and came to the bedroom door, where she saw Lawrence sitting on the bed, unable to control her emotions any longer.

Monica...... Is it really you? ”

Lawrence couldn't believe what was happening, and he got up tremblingly, and then saw his longing wife rush into his arms.

In this way, the two people, who were already separated by yin and yang, hugged each other again!

"Hmm...... Shouldn't I shy away? ”

Seeing this scene, Xia Mu on the side felt very relieved, but at the same time a little embarrassed.

And just as he was hesitating whether to give the two of them some personal space, he suddenly found that a trace of pitch-black data flowed on Lawrence's body.

Sure enough, the core of the virus in this secret realm was hidden in Lawrence's body, and it was about to completely explode at this time......

It's just that he has solved Lawrence's biggest heart disease, which has weakened the vector of the core of the virus in disguise, so how far can it erupt?

Natsuki couldn't help but be curious.

At this moment, he suddenly noticed that the pocket watch that Monica was holding in his hand seemed to start moving on its own, and the hands on it were ......

Started spinning?

In the next second, a rule of "time" surged over it, and immediately after, everything around it seemed to change.

I saw that the two people who were originally hugging each other tightly, their hair gradually changed from gray back to the color of their youth, wrinkles were gradually smoothed out, and their bodies gradually hardened......

All around them, all the wooden furniture, including the floor, began to rot, and the metal appliances began to rust, as if decades had passed in a short period of time.

As for Natsuki, due to the existence of the "Time Flow Barrier", he was not affected in the slightest, just like a spectator, quietly observing everything.

And when the change stopped, and Lawrence and Monica, who were back in their twenties, stood in front of him and kissed in this decaying space, he finally understood......

The true essence of this secret realm!

"Love"!

"Even if I transcend the river of time and the heavens and the earth decay, I still love you as ever."

This is the strange story hidden behind the "rules of time......

Real rules!
