Chapter 122 'The Psalm of Our Lady' vs 'Seven Days and Seven Swords'
The interpretation work went very smoothly.
At least that's what it looks like from the nun's expression and the occasional soft humming.
Reassemble the puzzle pieces in your mind step by step. At this rate, it will all be finished before dinner.
Index thought with satisfaction.
For her, who has the knowledge of one hundred and three thousand magic books, weaving a set of corresponding interpretation methods for spells is a matter of course.
Not to mention that as long as it is used properly, it can even reach the realm of the so-called "Demon God".
This is one of the reasons why she is coveted by countless people as the "Forbidden Books Index".
But the trouble is, the more deeply she understands the core of the magic circle, the less relaxed Index feels.
——'If left alone, it may affect the world.'
She didn't pay much attention to this sentence before, but now she has to pay attention to it.
(...the symbols of the four elements...the attributes given by the night...and the position of the moon...sure enough...that's right.)
After thinking about crossing the finish line, Index tightened her face and confirmed the calculation method of the spell for the last time.
The result remains the same.
This also proves——
"finished?"
Noticing that the pure white nun stopped moving, Yuuki, who had been standing behind with her eyes closed to relax, asked.
As the first discoverer of the scene, she had already ‘interpreted’ it.
This is a very special and interesting place.
"Um."
Nodding, Index, who was sitting on the floor, turned around with a rare serious look on her face.
"Miss Swordsman, how much do you know about Feng Shui magic?"
"Know a little bit."
Yuuki replied calmly and humbly.
"Well, in that case, I will omit the basic part."
Index raised her finger and began to explain in an orderly manner.
"I believe you also know that the biggest feature of Feng Shui spells is that they can be used without magic power."
"And now, this house that has been transformed into a ceremony venue can be said to have magnified this advantage to the extreme. Just by slightly moving the position of the nearby furniture, it is possible to inadvertently create a great magic that affects the whole world."
When he said this, even Index thought this was a very incredible thing.
But the knowledge she possesses tells her over and over again that the product of this coincidence is real.
"It's like there."
As an example, Index pointed to the corner with the highest degree of completion as she spoke.
"Weird toy-shaped dolls, broken chairs, dented kitchen utensils...the core meaning of the placement of those items is "summoning", and the theoretical basis constructed through the position is the "tree of life" of Kabbalah.
Let me highlight the key points. As long as you complete the last step of this magic circle, you can summon an existence equivalent to the level of "God's Power"."
After a pause as if to let someone digest, Index continued to speak with a worried look on her face.
"Of course, this is not without its drawbacks. If someone uses this level of magic, they will definitely have to pay a huge price."
Maybe, in the end, all humans will need to bear it together.
Index thought silently.
Moreover, there was one thing she didn't say.
That's what this magic circle lacks...it means "dislocation".
"Superior" and "lower".
"Angels" and "Humans".
The results speak for themselves.
That's not all that's terrible.
What's even more serious is that what she just listed is just one of the possibilities after the magic is activated.
"Destruction", "Reversal", "Absolute Zero"...if arranged according to different combinations, it can be converted into any kind of strategic level magic circle.
Such a dangerous future is definitely not what Index wants to see.
The nun couldn't help clenching her hands.
"Miss Swordsman, can I ask you a favor?"
Putting aside her other thoughts for the time being, Index made her request seriously.
at this time.
She gained another level of trust and curiosity towards the fairy lady in front of her who could bring astrological news one step ahead.
Needless to say, Yuuki also understood her thoughts.
There are two quickest ways to dispel the Feng Shui magic circle.
Since there is no spellcaster yet, there is only one other type left.
"Destroy this ceremony, right?"
The dark elf girl said bluntly.
Of course she had no objection.
However, she was consciously avoiding this ending, but was the result still such a standard 'unfortunate'?
…
All right.
Someone really didn't try their best.
Under Index's strange gaze, Yuuki scratched her cheek in embarrassment.
only.
She may not be needed to be this ‘evil person’.
The dark elf looked out the door.
The boiling heat has already arrived.
…
…
She's right here.
The 'evil' magician, Stiyl Magnus, stopped and raised his head slightly with a calm expression.
After following the tracking signal and arriving here, just looking at the outside, it looks like an ordinary house.
(...Is it a trap...or...)
Steele's gaze circled around the front without reservation.
There was no barrier, and there was no smell of magic. There was only a name tag with "Kamijo" hanging on the wall.
The question is, since the other party comes for the Index of Forbidden Books and has the ability to escape from them, will they really be defenseless where they end up?
Steele remained warily skeptical.
However, the tracking hand left by the church still pointed here, showing no sign of moving.
(Tsk.)
The young man dressed as a priest showed an expression that was the opposite of gentle.
If it were a normal street, his strange behavior would definitely be regarded as a suspicious person.
but now.
Steele was the only one left nearby.
All irrelevant ones have disappeared.
This was a signal that his companions had completed their preparations.
——"The idlers disperse".
The flame magician raised the corner of his mouth and let the white cigarette burn to the end.
Time is limited, there is no need to be so tied up.
It doesn't matter if it's an ambush or not, there's a simple way to solve the problem.
At the same time as the thought arose, the cards engraved with runes slipped from Steele's robe and spun in front of him from slow to fast.
That is a symbol of his strength and ability.
"——Kenaz (fire)."
Magical incantations whispered.
The small warmth gradually grew larger and turned into a red vortex.
(...Catalogue of Forbidden Books has a "Mobile Church" with Pope-level defensive capabilities, so there is no need to worry...)
if that is the case.
Steele took off his cigarette butt and flicked it forward.
The swirling flames rose again in an instant.
There is no need to hesitate.
He was ready to wake up.
"—Send sinners to their resting place!"
There was a young man who made a vow a long time ago.
