Shanika's voice was filled with deep regret.

Talent evolution is hard to come by.

Although it is speculated that talent evolution is related to the level of pollution and the total amount of mana, as long as the two meet the standard, it should allow talent to evolve.

But that's just speculation after all.

What if, after the total amount of mana is increased later, it still can't evolve the talent?

What's more, it is not so simple to increase the total amount of mana.

At present, the only way to increase the total amount of magic power of a witch without side effects is to absorb the natural magic power in the high-purity magic crystal.

But how precious are high-purity magic crystals?

The bargaining chips used by the second prince to win over Lord Denham and make him risk his life to betray the Duke of the Frontier were nothing more than a high-purity magic crystal.

Although the high-purity magic crystal can store and transmit energy, it only contains the natural magic power that it originally contains, which can increase the total amount of magic power of the witch.

is also completely rid of the pollution in the body, the shadow witch Lilia's talent has evolved, but Shanica has not, how can she not be envious?

Seeing Shanica's depressed mood, Roy hurriedly comforted: "Although the high-purity magic crystal is very precious, there is always a way to obtain it, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to get it for you in the future and help you complete the talent evolution." ”

“…… Then thank you, young master. ”

Shanica quickly adjusted her mood and a gentle smile appeared on her face.

"I'll go back and take care of Miss Ace first, Miss Lilia, young master, you can wait for her to wake up naturally."

Shanica bowed slightly to Roy, then turned and left the room.

Looking at Shanica's back as she disappeared around the corner of the door, Roy sighed and said sorry to Shanica.

Of the five witches in the territory, Shanica, the healing witch, is the closest to him.

Although Shanica always said something that made him "scared", that didn't stop Roy from getting closer to her in his heart.

Unfortunately, the threat from the Second Prince is imminent, and improving the combat power of the territory is the top priority at the moment, so the only way to give priority to the strongest and combat-skilled Ice Witch Ace and Shadow Witch Lilia can only absorb the natural magic power in the only high-purity magic crystal.

Secretly made a decision in his heart, and next time he obtained the high-purity magic crystal, he would definitely let Shanica be the first to use it, Roy looked at Lilia on the bed, and a look of anticipation appeared in the depths of his eyes.

After absorbing the magic of nature, Lilia's total magic power reached 80, and the mental and physical erosion of pollution without any scruples allowed her to exert a much stronger combat power than before.

Previously, she was not the opponent of Uncle Mira, the Divine Punishment Knight of the Temple, but Lilia, who has increased her total magic power and does not need to worry about pollution, may have surpassed Uncle Mila in combat power.

What's more, Lilia's talent has evolved now!

After her talent completes the evolution, her strength will definitely reach a higher level, and it is difficult to say whether she can reach the strength of the Ice Witch Ace before she broke through the "crown position", but at least two or three silver peak knights will not be her opponents.

Sitting cross-legged on the floor beside the bed, Roy closed his eyes, waiting for Lilia to wake up while practicing breathing.

The superposition of the "Heart Burning Secret Technique" and the "Furious State" will bring an extremely heavy burden to the body, but it is undeniable that in that state, his physique is extremely terrifying.

Roy tentatively named this state "State of Destruction".

In the previous test, Roy only lasted for a second before his body was damaged into that shape.

One second is too short, at best, only a single blow.

In order to better exert the power of the "state of destruction", his physique still needs to be strengthened.

The basic physical strength can only rely on the practice of the breathing method and the daily nourishment of [Infinite Desire], which needs to be accumulated bit by bit.

"Whew...... Suck ......"

The unique rhythm of the Burst Breathing Method spreads through Roy's mouth and nose.

The candle flame on the desk danced gently in the light night breeze, reflecting Roy's resolute face.

……

In the haze, Lilia opened her eyes.

Distorted, derived, elongated......

Everything in front of me seemed to be swept into the whirlpool of shadows and lost its inherent form.

Subconsciously, Lilia shook her head vigorously, trying to sober herself up.

But this action had no effect at all, and her brain seemed to be drowsy as if it had been separated by a layer of gauze.

In front of me, there is still this strange and absurd world of twisted shadows.

Am I, where?

With this thought in mind, Lilia struggled to her feet from the ground and staggered forward.

For some reason, she sensed that deep in the shadows ahead of her was something that was fatal to her.

Forward, forward......

Beside him are distorted, amorphous shadows.

I don't know how long it took, until Lilia felt her legs go numb, and the world in front of her suddenly became bright.

The brightness of the shadow world is different from the brightness of the normal sense.

It is a brightness that does not change the luminosity, but can make the "sight" of the person in it see more clearly.

At this moment, what caught Lilia's eyes was such a scene:

In the center of the distorted darkness was a high platform made of black crystals, and on top of the high platform, a throne of shadows stood silently.

In front of the throne, a noble, restrained scepter is inserted, and at the top of it is inlaid with a round orb that seems to gather the essence of the shadows of the entire world.

The moment she saw the shadow orb on her scepter, an unprecedented longing swelled up in Lilia's heart.

A realization crossed her mind.

If she could hold this shadow scepter in her hand, then she would become the absolute master of the shadow world.

But to hold the Shadow Scepter before reaching the Shadow Throne, you need to step through the dark platform with a full ninety-nine steps.

Driven by her heart's desire, Lilia took a step and stepped onto the first step of the high platform.

But with just one step, she felt an unparalleled weight fall from the sky.

Muscles began to whine and bones trembled violently......

The horror of this pressure caused Lilia's body to shatter inch by inch.

With all her might, Lilia bit a piece of hard work down the steps with her teeth, swallowing it hard into her stomach.

In the next moment, her consciousness was completely plunged into darkness.
