"Your Highness, I actually have some new ideas. Although the Elemental Sword Seal is indeed a transcendent discovery, in a sense, our application is still too rough, and its development is really a waste. We can start with the construction of spells.
, making it more autonomous and automated. After constructing the basic sword seal, use the basic sword seal to construct the resurrection sword seal..."
Whenever Cohen wanted to give me advice, listening to the long list of nouns that I couldn't understand, I wondered who was the mentor and who was the disciple.
"The mage genius who strives to become a knight, the rookie knight who also practices alchemy and magic, Princess Renee of the League of Gentlemen, my knight followers are really a bunch of weirdos."
In a sense, it cannot be said that these three are not outstanding talents, but they all seem to be getting further and further away from the road of knighthood, especially the little Cohen in front of him. He has fully proved himself without even knowing it.
of talent.
Spells? Spell formula construction? There is no need to think about it at all, it can be done by instinct.
For the Sons of Elements, magic is just a manifestation of will, and conventional spells are just a process of proving that classic formulas have been derived. Just as mathematicians can deduce countless new formulas at will, the Sons of Elements can create countless spells at will.
I finally know why Heloise asked me to fool this little Cohen. The human Son of the Elements, the Son of Thunder of the Dwarves, and the Son of the Moon of the Elf are all regarded as sons given by God.
The Son of Thunder is good at hand-to-hand combat and forging, but the Son of the Moon is a genius in magical arts. They are both somewhat similar. They are amazing geniuses in certain aspects. It would be a pity if such talents were wasted like this.
My Four Spirit Swordsmen take a generalized and simplified route, jumping directly to the basic theoretical accumulation, so that ordinary warriors can also master certain element usage abilities, and as long as they become skilled element users, naturally
The theory of magic can be deduced backwards.
"The most difficult thing is the first step. Many people don't have the qualifications to become strong, but they are limited by their talents and cannot even take the first step."
For Cohen, this is a whole new world.
Yes, my arms lack strength, so I should have the sword seal of the heavy object to replace my arms.
Yes, I can't run fast or jump far, so let the mark representing the wind become my wings.
Yes, my sword cannot penetrate the dragon's hard scales. Then, let the thunder caused by the mark be the sharp tip of my sword.
The ideal of becoming a knight gave Cohen endless motivation, and Heloise became endless theoretical support, with new gains and new progress every day.
In my eyes, this kid's level is rising at a strange speed. The Four Spirit Swordsman was only level 15 yesterday, but today he has jumped to level 17, and he may be 20 in two days.
And his efforts have indeed enriched the new profession of Four Spirit Swordsmen.
"Xuanwu Sword Seal - Ice Snake Wrap."
The ice magic spreads along the ground without a shadow. But it suddenly breaks out at the opponent's feet, freezing the opponent's ankles.
"The most important thing is the characteristics. Ice freezing, lightning paralysis, and flame burning are too wasteful just to use them as temporary enchantments to increase attack power. We can open up various magic sword skills according to their own characteristics.
."
"You see, the ice magic spreads too slowly. Even if it is attached to the sword and freezes the opponent through confrontation, it will take a lot of time, but in fact it is invisible and very hidden. We can do it quietly."
Well, although it is limited to abilities, Cohen has not released a new sword seal now, but just by changing the fighting method and opening up the use skills suitable for elemental special effects, the comprehensive combat power of this new profession has increased by more than 30%.
But the most important thing is that he can listen to the sounds of the elements and find out the direction of progress for this new profession. I am afraid that other elemental sword skills will also be opened up.
[Congratulations to the host for mastering the new magic sword skill Xuanwu Sword Seal - Ice Snake Coil. This skill will be included in the professional system of the Four Spirit Swordsmen. System prompt: Reward for inventing new skills? You have the nerve to ask me for a reward? You are being punished by yourself
How does it feel to teach new skills to your apprentice? Can you still keep your old face? How long do you think you can keep fooling him if he continues to improve like this?】
And the system lived up to expectations and jumped out to tease me, so for the sake of the dignity of the master, I could only work harder on research.
Not to mention, people are forced to do it. When I opened the "Death Ice Sword Seal" composite sword seal that combines the power of ice and the power of death, even Heloise looked at me with admiration.
The blown black snow has dual magic powers of corrosion and freezing, and is extremely deadly to the living. The only drawback is that it seems to be quite demanding on the user, and it has become my own patent inexplicably.
Of course, this naming that is so straightforward and has no technical content is definitely not my handiwork. "Sleeping Turtle Sword Seal" was actually rejected by them, which made me sulky for a while.
"The magic power of death is the sword seal of laziness, the ice is Xuanwu, and the two combined are Xuanwu of laziness - the sleeping turtle? This naming method is too cool. For the sake of future junior brothers and sisters, please come back.
Let’s play by ourselves.”
Hearing all these words, but judging from the nodding of everyone around me, I had no choice but to swallow the bitter pill.
"Actually, I also came up with a name for your sword seal..."
Eliza, who quickly took the lead in the team, also invented her own special sword seal. The destructive sword seal that combined the power of demons and sea of fire was extremely powerful and evil, but it was obviously unusable by others.
"Let me guess? With your weird naming method and poor vocabulary, you will probably regard the devil as 'anger', and if the flame is Suzaku... Angry Suzaku?"
"No, Angry Birds. And your sword seal that combines ice and fire, Song of Ice and Fire! It's a pity, I still have a few names that I haven't used. If it's the combination of wind and earth, Qinglong plus
The white tiger can also be called a dragon-tiger fight! If it's ice and wind, then black and blue dragons are added. The romance of dragon and snake!"
I said proudly, and then the disciples around me said nothing. They nodded and left, but no one asked me for my name anymore...
-------------
Red Maple City is a small town that is not well-known in the Siluwell Kingdom, but it is very meaningful to us.
When I faced the orc army in the north, this ancient city was also our temporary headquarters. If I remember correctly, there are still many historical traces left after that. There is even an exhibition hall of past wars.
But at this time, this city has become the focus of attention from all the countries in the far north.
The reason? This city is not far from Antun, the capital of Sluwell, and the area in front has long become the territory of the orcs.
So naturally, this place became a gathering place for reinforcements from various countries.
I entered the city very early, before the city gate was officially opened, so I came in while it was still dark.
The city defense soldiers at that time wanted to stop me, but in a sense, in this land, my appearance is the best pass. The guards were stunned when they saw me, and then they got excited and stopped me.
He saluted and then opened the door directly.
"Open the door! Your Highness is here."
I nodded slightly in return, stepping on the snow that had not yet frozen solidly. There was a creaking sound on the ground, and I fell silent as I looked at the orc heads hanging on the city wall.
I am not a kind person, and I lack the sensitivity to be sentimental. Along the way, I have even become numb to such a scene. On the contrary, I am actually a little happy and relieved to see this scene.
The reason? Probably there was such a scene in the villages captured by the orcs, but the heads they hung belonged to humans, and the human head Jingguan (head tower) built according to customs, "chiluo", the young female corpse, was thrown to death
Toddlers make me even more silent.
This is war, the war I hate the most, because war is the ugliest thing in the world. It will legitimize all crimes and turn living people into living beasts.
This is war, my favorite war. In the past, I believed that only war can protect my people, and only war can eliminate war. Along the way, I have been called a hero, a devil, and a butcher. Behind my back has been
It's a mountain of blood and corpses. I'm afraid the most heinous orc butcher's life in the hands of me is not even a fraction of mine.
Even in the era when I was once called a hero, I took countless lives at my hands. I was once regarded as a hero by humans, but as far as I know, in the orc country, I was regarded as a butcher and a devil. I was often used as a butcher and a devil.
Come and be frightened to silence the child's cry.
The reason? Probably because I was the first to imitate the method of the orcs, using elite light cavalry and air cavalry to create a human figure on the orc plateau.
This is a war between countries, and it is also a racial war between orcs and humans. The two sides have been grudges for who knows how long. When all this breaks out under legal excuses, no matter how ugly the crime is, it will become sacred.
And hero.
Am I a hero? A butcher? A devil? I'm afraid it's all of the above. I never think of myself as a saint, but until those bastards who keep creating new wars are punished, bastards like me can still survive.
necessary for this world.
When the real villains are sitting in the temple and being worshiped by the world, how can a little villain like me be willing to sleep alone? The sinners will eventually be judged, or at least they must be dragged to hell together.
"Go away! Bastard orc!"
Those being kicked and driven away by the soldiers were a group of orcs, but judging from their typical human clothing habits, they should be local residents and traders who had settled for a long time.
In a sense, Sluwell's marriage and friendship policies did play a role. At least the trade between the two places has a history of several decades. While caravans and resident chambers of commerce were normalized, both sides had their own differences.
There are few residents, and traveling merchants have always lived in other countries.
But obviously, the outbreak of this war was too sudden. There was no possibility of evacuation for the expatriates from various countries, so they became the first refugees to suffer from both sides, and even became the victims' venting bag for their hatred. I'm afraid those hanging on the wall
Human heads, in addition to orc invaders and spies, there must be many such civilians.
"Are they spies? Or spies?"
After hesitating for a moment, now that I have encountered it, I finally want to take care of it. If it were a soldier, I would not take care of it, but killing civilians has never been done even when I was the craziest.
"You...you are His Highness Roland!!"
The young soldiers called out my name in surprise, but the orcs were so scared that they collapsed on the ground, and some children even started crying. It seems that even after so long, my reputation is still as loud as before.
In this case, the next step was easy. After I found out that these orcs were expatriates who had settled here for decades and were now being sent to the slave market for auction, I just spent some money to buy them.
Of course, those little kids cried even harder. I am afraid that in their minds, I am the worst buyer. Maybe they plan to buy them and use them to make broth and barbecue.
"Eliza."
"You are still being hypocritical in inexplicable places as always, but I just like this about you. I know, your wish is my order. I will take over a chamber of commerce here. I don't know if I can survive, but at least
It’s better than being sold as a slave. If you become a slave at this time, even a child will become the military medal of those noble second generation ancestors.”
He nodded without saying anything. Eliza is much better than me in these aspects. If she can't do it well, I won't be able to do it myself either.
Hypocrite? There is really no room for rebuttal.
I know I am a hypocrite, because even though I just saved a few orc civilians willfully, now I have to consider how to take more orc lives.
"Where is the joint headquarters? Where are the nobles of the various palaces? Why hasn't the war started yet? Are they planning to watch Antoun fall?"
