Ivas didn't expect that Yulia's reaction would be so big when he came home after he had only been in school for a week.

But Yulia's will is strong and determined. After seeing Ivus, he didn't let Ivus leave, and kept sticking to him, asking him to tell him about the people he saw and the things he encountered in school. Her reasons were also very legitimate, leaving Ivas speechless-

Yulia asked him, "Is school such a dangerous place, and why did my brother get two assassinations in a week at school?" ”

She was so right that Ivas didn't know how to explain it for a moment.

Ivas sat on the edge of her bed and talked to Yulia about the events of the week.

As she spoke, Yulia couldn't help but yawn slightly.

Yulia's biological clock is comparable to that of a schoolboy. She can stay up late when she is reading and studying, and she usually has to go to bed at about nine o'clock.

Yulia's brain is very good, and she usually can't go out, so she can only read silently at home.

Like Ehuas, who is obsessed with demonology but has a talent for the path of devotion, Yulia is also interested in and gifted in the occult. But her attention is more focused on astrology, alchemy, and preservation—among which her talent for alchemy is much higher than that of Ivus.

Although there are many occult books in Moriarty Manor, the route of the Nine Avenues is uneven. Among them, there is almost no mystical knowledge of the path of beauty, the path of transcendence, and the path of twilight, but there are many related paths of equilibrium, wisdom, and authority.

Especially the balanced path...... Moriarty Sr. seemed to be a transcendent of the Balanced Path, but he had never demonstrated alchemy in front of his adopted children. Therefore, Ivas did not know how high his specific rank was.

- If it weren't for the illusion on her body that delayed Yulia and prevented her from going to school normally, maybe Yulia would be able to skip a grade and become Evas's senior sister now.

But even so, Yulia still longs for school.

One of the reasons why Eivas decided not to go to college was because Yulia was so envious of him - it was clear that if she had gone to school, her grades would have been much higher than Eivus. This made Ivus a little distressed at that time. I simply didn't go to school and studied with her at home.

And now, Iwass has returned with what he has seen and heard in college.

Yulia, of course, didn't want to sleep. She sat down under the covers, trying to talk to Ivas for a while.

But seeing that his sister was a little sleepy, Ivas still relied on the lullaby he learned from Isabel to easily lull Yulia, who was fighting with eyelids, to sleep. Eivus does not have a hierarchy of beauty paths, so his lullaby does not possess mystical powers. Yulia was really lulled to sleep by his gentle singing.

Last night, Ivas had just planned to check Yulia's physical condition to see if the Flame Butterfly had woken up. As a result, Yulia was retained, but he also enjoyed the comfortable exchange. There is a sense of tranquility in the company of his family, which can relax his tense nerves.

Edward's seal was in good condition, and the cards that Evas had given to Yulia were gradually gaining some spirituality. If nothing else, the Flame Butterfly should be back by this time next week - by then, Ivus will be ready to prepare for the seal.

But he didn't intend to seal it before he advanced beyond the path.

Because the Flame Butterfly is an illusion of dedication, pure flame attributes, without a trace of darkness.

Although the seals and summons come from rituals that transcend the path, its own power belongs to the path of consecration. Therefore, this is the power that Ivus's priesthood can use, which can be put into the light, and it is also the hole card that Ivus can use openly and openly in front of everyone—which is the opposite of the unsightly shadow demon.

Therefore, it is best not to use this power in the advanced ritual for Aihuas's other identity beyond the path, which may cause leaks.

Then sealing the Flame Butterfly before advancing is just asking for trouble for yourself. The crescent moon ritual was already difficult, and Ivus was cautious and didn't want to add meaningless difficulty to himself for no reason.

If Yulia is not in good shape, Ivus will have to forcibly seal it despite the greatly increased difficulty. But since the seal is in good condition now, you can wait for the advanced level to come out before sealing it.

Next Sunday night, it's time for the promotion ceremony that transcends the path. The day after the advancement was completed, Evas had to take a leave of absence and seal the Flame Butterfly at noon.

— but next week, Iwass will have to deal with the people of the Noble Red Society.

used the superior demon to assassinate himself in public, and even suspected of attacking Sherlock...... Maybe they'll make a second trip, or do something else to Ivus.

So Aihuas directly changed his Demon Scholar profession from level six to level nine, and his dark attribute mana pool also became nine points:

Demon Scholar LV9: [Demon Knowledge -2 (97%)], [Basic Ritual -2 (0%)], [Demon Pact -3 (80%)], [Shepherd (Essence) -2 (0%)]

The levels of "Demon Knowledge" and "Demon Contract" can be slightly stuck, and after promotion, you can directly pull up two levels. As long as Ivus stopped reading the books of demonic knowledge, this skill would not continue to rise—and as long as he used the power of the Shadow Demon, the level of the Demon Contract would slowly rise.

Following the previous process of making the "Enchanted Card: Shadow Blade", after Ivus returned to his room, he prepared an inactive tarot card with four mana points. Then I immediately went to sleep, planning to get up early the next day to finish my mana and make cards directly.

He now plans to make a new "Moon" card.

Magic cards made from the same tarot card can only be used once in a day. And the Shadow Demon is not a high-level illusion, it is only compatible with the tarot card of the moon, and the high-level illusion has multiple possibilities. This means that if you use a new card extracted from Shadow Fiend, you will not be able to use the old "Shadow Blade" for that day.

But Ivus now felt more and more that the Shadow Blade might not be able to handle all situations—for example, when he fought against the Deformed Limbs, the Shadow Blade had become meaningless.

Ivas only slept for seven hours before waking up. Seven hours of sleep is enough to regain full mana.

It was half past five, and the first thing Ivas did when he got up was to go to the table and get the half-finished magic card he had made.

Ivas squeaks the rusty nail into the card - counting the blank card, this is Ivus's third card. Now he's getting more proficient.

Again, they all use Shadow Fiend to make moon cards, so the previous process is exactly the same. It's just that the mana injected in the end is different, and the attributes of the magic cards that come out are completely different.

If you have more than 10 Dark Mana, you can craft "Spell Card: Shadow Cloak", if you have more than 20 points, you will have "Spell Card: Shadow Impact", and if you have 30 points, you will have "Field Card: Shadow Cellar".

- [Shadow Cellar] is the most useful card for Shadow Fiend. It is capable of briefly transforming the surrounding space into an enclosed, shadowy area, forcibly constructing a home field where a large number of shadows cannot be found. Inside the Shadow Cellar, even the light summoned by illumination becomes extremely dim, and non-mysterious light sources such as torches, candles, and lights are all extinguished.

In this area, Shadow Fiend is able to move extremely fast, mimic freely, and gain continuous all-stat bonuses, without having to be tied to the shadow of Aihuas. It is equivalent to entering a round of explosive state.

Therefore, once Ivas was able to make the "Field Card: Shadow Cellar", he basically wouldn't use the Shadow Blade. This will basically not be possible until he reaches level 19 as a demon scholar.

After all, Ivas is not a true scholar of major sins, and can directly make wild illusions into illusion cards. Now Iwass can also bully the Shadow Demon who signed a contract with him. Since you only have one chance a day, you can put down the skills that you can acquire with your normal professional abilities.

"Shadow Impact" is a pure killing spell that has no effect other than damage.

And just dealing damage, other spells can do the same, and even the shadow blade and pistol may not be impossible. The advantage of it is that it is instantaneous...... And this advantage can only be reflected after there are more tarot cards in different tarot cards. That way, Ivus can open several different magic cards in an instant, and play a beautiful round of free hand.

But in Avalon, Ivas didn't dare to blast people with this pure shadow power; In rituals, Ivus can directly let the Shadow Fiend do it—so the 20-point "Shadow Impact" is not as useful as the 10-point mana "Shadow Cloak".

It can even be said that even if the Shadow Cellar has a very great blessing for the Shadow Demon...... However, in PVP, the "Moon" card slot is still reserved for the Shadow Cloak.

Soon, Ivas was finishing the cards. There is only one last step left, and I ask Heng Self to give spirituality to the new tarot cards.

Unlike before, Ivas is now a serious pastor. You don't have to sprinkle black pearl powder on the spot, hang up, and wait quietly for me to discover this ritual...... He could directly knock on the pillar god of the path of love through the small window. This also prevents card crafting failures.

"I pray to me, the god of the holy number is one, the god of death and fertility, the god of ignorance for a long time - the eternal me of the moon!"

Ivus's pupils shone with a golden red glow, and his hands hung over the tarot cards, praying earnestly: "Give me love!" ”

- Is the big guy there? Can you take a look at the big guy?

At this time, it was not yet fully dawn, so Heng I was quite quick to answer the prayers.

Soon, a breeze was blowing in the room. That's the level to be able to roll up the dead leaves on the ground a little.

And with the wind blowing, the shadow under Ivus is pulled out like a brushed marshmallow.

“…… What kind of power is this?! What's the situation? ”

The Shadow Demon's stunned voice rang out beside Ivus, "Why can you just drain my power-"

It wanted to become human, but it collapsed in an instant; It was in the form of a hound, but then the shadows that made up its mimicry were blown away by the wind - it was boiling and evaporating on the ground.

What kind of technology is this? What mystical technique?

The last time Ivus made the Phantom Card, Shadow Fiend didn't wake up.

It was only vaguely aware that Ivas had extracted some of its power. But because that part of the force was so weak, it didn't feel anything. Although it knew that the card contained a portion of its own breath, Shadow Fiend didn't know how Eivus did it at the time.

But this time, when the card was made, Ivas was not in a wheelchair. Shadow Fiend is fully awake and watching the whole time.

- It had never heard of a demon scholar who could directly drain the power of his contract demon by worshipping the Nine Pillars God!

Are you a demon scholar or a priest?

Soon, Shadow Fiend caught a familiar flavor from this breath:

"Is this a ritual ...... the Deadly Sin?"

As a demon, of course, it also knows this celestial priest who rules over almost all demons.

This ritual undoubtedly came from the Primordial Beast, whose other name was the Fallen Celestials. Feared by the demons, he is called the "Great Sin", and is in charge of the concepts of depravity and sin.

The Great Sin is at least the first three levels of the Heavenly Division in the transcendent path, and only the Ouroboros can stabilize him. Because of the great sin that once raised the banner of rebellion against the Snake Father and then failed, many of his records in the material world were basically erased by the Snake Father's followers, and basically only in the extremely profound demonic knowledge can know the words of the "Fallen Heavenly Division".

The Shadow Demon realized that Ivus was not ignorant of the Fallen Celestial Priest - he had not only heard a name and knew that it was the Celestial who ruled over the demons, so he promised it that he would kill the Fallen Celestial in the future.

Not only does Ivus know enough about the Fallen Celestials...... You can even use His rituals!

- He's serious!

What a pure and arrogant desire for transcendence!

This made the Shadow Fiend tremble with excitement and tremble, but it also made it feel intensely uneasy - is it really possible for mortals to defeat Tensi?

For the first time, Shadow Fiend was visibly worried about Ehuath's safety. Not because of loyalty, but because he feared that he would be too aggressive to provoke an enemy he couldn't defeat and lose meaninglessly.

The essence of transcendence is rebellion, but the premise of rebellion is victory. Otherwise, it's just a rebellion.

The Shadow Fiend felt like almost a fifth of his power had been drained before the ritual finally stopped.

The card, which looked almost identical to the Shadow Blade, floated up on its own and flew into Ivus's hand.

Its properties also came to mind for Ivas:

[Spell: Cloak of Shadow (Moon)]

[Necessary: Dark 1]

[Immediate, non-contact, effective immediately]

[Effect: Knocks back all nearby targets, instantly lifts the seal, freeze, burn, bind, and petrify you are suffering, and enters a completely invisible state for one minute (+30%).] When your invisibility is broken, this effect inflicts a curse on all hostile targets in Sight, equivalent to the "Blind Curse"]
