Episode 20
runaway spirit.
It is an opponent that can be said to be a real obstacle in the Celidia attack route.
‘… … Although it appeared a little early.’
Originally, Celidia’s mind and body, which had suffered due to the ruse, collapsed, and the runaway phenomenon that occurred as a result.
It could be said that the content of the Celidia route was to prevent it.
‘Wouldn’t it be possible to block this kind of thing itself, it’s not that I didn’t expect it… … .’
Embarrassed by my actions, the Darkness doesn’t use tricks on Celidia this time, but forces the spirits to run wild.
It’s like trying to say that even if you try to change fate, it’s forced in front of you in the end.
“You are funny.”
fate sucks.
I can only cut it and say it.
different from the game.
The timing of the congestion was early, and the risk was significantly different from what was portrayed in the game.
More than anything.
‘Celidia did not despair.’
Feeling the energy of the spirit released, I was convinced.
The runaway spirit only grows its shape, but does not do any destructive action.
‘I’m in control.’
changed from there.
In the game, Celidia despairs and gives up trying any further.
That’s why I needed a main character. I had to fight desperately to convince and save him.
‘I don’t have to do that now.’
Trying hard.
Unlike the game, it taught me how to do it.
‘It has meaning.’
Then all that’s left… … .
“Emily.”
“I know.”
Our workhorse is quick-witted.
“This noona will prepare the troublesome things, so come on over.”
As if he understood what he had to do, he soared into the sky. was going to get ready.
I shrugged my shoulders, smiled lightly and walked away.
Toward the runaway spirit.
The guy doesn’t run amok. My body trembled as if I was suppressed. I look down in response to my footsteps, but that’s all.
“Move.”
Push.
I put my hand on the swollen spirit energy and squeezed my legs as hard as I could to push a door.
penetrate straight through
It seemed like Emily was calling me from behind, but I didn’t care and pushed on.
It emits demonic energy and forcibly tears it and goes inside.
“Ugh… … . It’s a little tougher than I thought.”
Spirit power and demonic energy are polar opposites.
If it was the same amount, the magic would prevail, but now the density of spirit power was abnormally high due to the abnormal phenomenon called runaway.
If you pour water on the fire, it will go out, but if the fire is big, it will eventually boil away like water.
It is crushed.
I pushed it as hard as I could with my demonic power and went inside while holding on.
‘It’s good that I gained experience points in my spare time.’
It was rewarding to imitate an honor student.
Thanks to that, I can barely stand it.
Proceeding as it were, I finally stopped walking.
Because I could see his ears.
Even though he’s short, his ears stand out, so it’s easy to find.
“Are you eating?”
“… … little.”
different from the game.
Fate tried to run Celdia out of control and put her in the same predicament, but the result was different.
He must have sat down and cried in the game.
But now Celidia is holding on and standing. They are clutching at something and fighting desperately against it.
“Is it the core of the spirit?”
Cellidia is interfering with it by controlling the energy of the runaway spirit and extracting its central core.
to get back.
“Can I help you?”
“are you okay… … . Because you told me.”
From noble mtl dot com
“I guess so.”
“But it’s a little difficult.”
“hmm?”
“If you suppress this, you won’t be able to control the mana outside… … .”
“in short?”
“Will it explode?”
It was Celidia who meekly said that she couldn’t do two things.
“Can I pop it?”
“Don’t explode. Don’t even think about it seriously!”
There must be some satisfaction in being squeezed in.
“I will fix that. So stay calm and focus.”
I stretched out my hand upwards. Outside, Emily will be waiting for you.
During the runaway process, you can control and collect as much mana as was forcibly concentrated.
“So finish. I’m going to close the shop after this.”
“huh.”
Celidia embraces Hack.
According to her, on that day seven years ago, the elements of the spirit implanted in her are constantly shouting out that they are resentful.
A vengeful spirit left with only anger against selfish and greedy humans.
However, there is only one target to which that resentment is not directed.
That’s Celidia.
“calm down.”
You can’t blame yourself.
Even more so, she is also the one who suffered from those ugly people.
So Celidia should be able to control that power well enough.
I firmly told Celdia that fact, and now she believed it without question.
A new light shines through.
The light that emits according to various properties.
‘In the game… … Celidia, who was fully aware of her own strength, was called this.’
Spirit Chimera.
and.
All Elements.
A rare elemental magician who can make full use of the attributes and characteristics of a thousand spirits because he is mixed with them.
“Then shall we finish this one too?”
Convinced that I wouldn’t have to worry about Celidia, I decided to go ahead as promised.
The processing of the large amount of mana gathered by the runaway elemental body.
“Emily! Let’s begin!”
I didn’t hear a reply, but I saw from the outside that Emily was making full use of her energy drain and using this area as her control range.
‘I could simply collect it and throw it into the air, but it’s a waste.’
This amount of mana is not easy to gather.
then?
‘I have to swipe.’
The villains do, though.
Control a large amount of mana to collect and condense it.
“… … !”
He gritted his teeth and held back his voice.
Bones ring.
heavy.
Mass does not exist in mana. However, as the density increases, it naturally affects the surrounding environment.
In short, the compressed mana was pushed and weighed down by the air and weight.
The laws of physics are pretty bad.
‘How dare you!’
Who are you trying to weigh down on just the topic of fuel?
Give it strength and hold it as it is.
The condensed mana was swallowed up by me.
《The capacity of mana in the body increases significantly.》
《Satisfies the magic circle skill level increase condition.》
《25pts of skill points are consumed to increase the mastery level of the magic circle.》
Additional conditions for creating magic circles.
It will gain a large amount of mana. Or achieve a specific event.
Achieving this is my secondary purpose.
《Your magic circle mastery level has reached level 3.》
it serves him right. It’s good.
As planned.
My legs relaxed as I tasted the sensation of a new surge of energy.
“… … ah.”
If you come now and fall, you’re ugly.
But my back never touched the floor.
Instead, it touched something other than a hard, dirty dirt floor.
The colorfully shining back of the beast supported me as if pushing me.
It is a spirit.
The beast’s body and multi-colored wings.
A spirit that takes the form of various creatures that are not normally possible.
Mixed Spirit ≪Celidia≫
A subspecies of the spirit that gave her the same name.
‘It’s literally a chimera of spirits… … .’
Celidia succeeded in controlling her elemental elements.
Then, in the form of a spirit, he could be pulled out and tied to a leash with a contract.
‘However, it seems to be bigger than in the game… … .’
Well, it doesn’t matter.
“are you okay?”
Seeing me leaning against the spirit chimera, Celidia tilted her head and asked.
“no… … . That’s what I should ask.”
I smiled and moved my gaze.
《You have achieved the clear conditions of the sub-quest.》
Yes, now I can say it’s okay.
Is fate really changing?
I can’t say for sure what this quest meant by fate.
but.
‘Well, it must have been a good thing.’
At least one rule of the game can be trusted.
Clearing the quest.
For now, save it and breathe a sigh.
Chapter 4 – Even villains have a hierarchy
It’s working out well.
The subquest related to Cellidia was also cleared.
《You will receive a reward for completing the quest.》
《Passive – You have obtained the Heart of Mana》
《Acquire experience.》
《You have reached level 12.》
Acquired experience and skills according to the reward.
《Heart of Mana: Increases maximum mana capacity when learning the skill. Slight decrease in mana consumption》
It’s a useful enough skill.
The difficulty of magic is the increasingly terrifying amount of consumption, so I needed to acquire a passive skill to cover that.
‘It will be the foundation for safely passing Chapter 1, which will begin soon.’
Now that my level has risen, I want to take new skills and try them out.
But anyway, that’s something to do later.
Why?
‘Do you do well and lie down after getting sick!’
I left Celdia in charge and explained the general situation to the professor and guards who came to help Cellidia and belatedly checked out the situation.
and… … .
As soon as I returned to the workshop, I immediately stretched out.
“Bone, bone resonates… … . My muscles ache.”
It’s a strange feeling, as if you drank alcohol and went to the gym and shook your body.
“Oh, oh, oh… … . I’m sick again.”
Emily looked at me like that and with a thin sigh carried me directly to the bed.
“what is this… … .”
I wondered if I had been cursed, so I was cold inside.
Come to think of it, it was well done in front of the dark spirit. I wondered if the rear end had been exploded.
It was Emily’s bewildered sigh that eased my worries.
“Sian, didn’t you just roll your head like this and increase the amount of basic mana at once? I also amplified up to 3 circles at once.”
“ah… … . It did.”
“Wouldn’t it be hard on the body if an ordinary human did such a thing?”
“OMG… … .”
When Celidia ran out of control, a large amount of mana gathered in the area.
It was too wasteful to scatter it, so it seemed like I had lost my mind by concentrating it on myself and using it to double my basic mana ability.
‘If you eat it raw, you’ll get food poisoning.’
The example is strange, but it won’t be wrong.
“My body has not yet adapted to the increased mana. You are very nervous.”
As Emily assessed my condition and slowly stroked it from the nape of my neck to my chest, a strange pain followed.
Due to the sudden increase in the amount of mana, the amount of mana circulation in the blood also increased exponentially.
As a result, the body, such as muscles and bones, will also take a load to adapt, Emily explained.
actually too.

Because his abilities have increased dramatically.
In particular, the mana dramatically increased.
“It’s like growing pains… … .”
“From the perspective of this older sister, I think it will probably stay like this for a full day or so.”
“What is the cure?”
“Be quiet.”
Natural recovery is best possible. There would be no mask other than that, Emily asserted.
“In short, it means rest. It’s a shame because tomorrow is a holiday.”
“If I’m bored, will my sister take care of me?”
“… … it’s okay. If it’s just a break, well, if I stretch out for a day, I’ll be able to do something.”
“You don’t have to say anything?”
“If you have to be nursed by a succubus, you will only be exhausted, not recharged.”
that it is discharged at high speed too.
At my joking words, Emily just smirks and backs off.
“Hmm~ Then, shall we talk in moderation? Well, that’s more… … .”
Mumbles something, but probably won’t do anything useless.
I suddenly feel sleepy as if I have reached the limit of my patience.
Wake me up if anything happens. Probably not.
I muttered that and closed my eyes.
