The best, of course, is magic at the level of ceremonial spells, or magic that does not belong to the foundation of modern magic, such as rune magic, magic from the Age of Gods, or even ancient magic. "Ah, can you do that?" After hearing Victor say that it was quite easy and he listed a lot of magic tricks with ease, Aozaki Aoko asked with anticipation. Then came the critical strike— "How could I possibly do that?" Victor smiled, of course. In fact, it is possible. Although it is impossible to completely erase the memory by using The Theory of the Monarch, it is quite easy to seal the memory until the other person dies of old age as long as the hints are deepened regularly. But that would do him no good, and might even risk exposing his monarchism. "Then what are you talking about?" Aozaki Aoko seemed quite disappointed, but she keenly caught a word in Victor's words: rune magic.
If I remember correctly, the Aozaki family seems to have done related research? Her elder sister, Aozaki Touko, was already a leader in learning rune magic. However, before she could open her mouth to propose her idea, Victor waved his hand calmly: "It is a good habit to listen to people finish their words, Aoko." "It is precisely because it is impossible that I advocate the second plan." After saying that, he walked to Shizuki Sojuro's door under Aozaki Aoko's puzzled gaze and knocked twice. "Don't sleep anymore. Get up. Do you still want to save your life? If you do, start today -" "You are my apprentice now!" …… "So, you want to teach him magic?" In the living room, Shizuki Sojuro and Aozaki Aoko sat obediently aside, watching Victor and Kuonji Arizuma sitting face to face, holding a cup of black tea, as if it was a negotiation of the century. Kuonji Yuju looked at Shizuki Sojuro suspiciously, then turned around and said quietly, "But he doesn't have any talent for magic." "Yes, but there is still a little bit." Hearing this, Victor nodded slightly and explained, "Generally speaking, the most basic manifestation of what we call magic talent is the presence or absence of magic circuits." The presence or absence of magic circuits is the key to using magic, and the number of magic circuits is the most basic thing that determines the upper and lower limits of a magician - although it is not absolute, magic circuits are like CPU threads, and obviously the more the better. However, the first thing to determine whether a child has the qualifications to be a magician is whether he or she can show "abnormalities" due to the awakening of magic power when he or she is young. For example, Toosaka Rin awakened her magic power and her own attributes when she was five years old. After the relevant attributes and characteristics, as well as the matrix of all magic, "manifested" autonomously in her body, she naturally possessed magic circuits. So from this point of view, there is no problem in judging whether a person has magical aptitude based on whether or not he has magic circuits. "However, this criterion is limited to those who can awaken on their own... or in other words, our magic world will only recognize those who are qualified enough to awaken." Magical aptitude, in Victor's opinion, is like elemental affinity in novels.
The value itself is not discontinuous. If the qualification required to awaken a magician is 60 points, then there must be ordinary people in the world hovering around 59,58 or points. Are these people considered qualified? There shouldn't be any. Victor thought about it and realized that a magician with a score of 60, who had poor magic aptitude, might only be able to linger on the most basic magic for his entire life and would not be able to go any further. So, people with a score below 60, even if they were forced to awaken, would probably only be able to use some of the simplest spells. But even so, at least I have the identity of a magician, right? "Do you think he has similar qualifications?" Hearing Victor's theory, Kuonji Yuzu frowned slightly and asked without denying it. "Who knows? I just feel like I have to give it a try." Victor said indifferently. As a vampire, he couldn't say that he had a very high sensitivity to the quality of blood. Especially after obtaining the principle, he could always roughly feel whether this person could be successfully transformed, right? He actually didn't know why, but he felt that the chance of transformation was particularly high after Shizuki Sojuro was bitten by him. So even if Shizuki Sojuro is just an ordinary person, his hidden magical talent should not be too bad, at least not isolated. "But forcing ordinary people to awaken their magical talents... the Magician Association doesn't have similar research, right?" Jiuyuanji Youzhu silently took a sip of tea. In her opinion, this operation was even more difficult than finding a ritual spell to make the other party lose their memory. The people in the Magicians Association are so busy keeping it a secret that they wish there were only a few magicians in the world. How could they research this kind of technology? They did research magic circuit transplantation, but not for ordinary people, but for themselves... "No, but the church does." Victor smiled and said, "This is often the way the church trains agents. Many agents who can use secrets were ordinary people at first..." “What’s going on… … ” Kuonji Yuju gave Victor a complicated look: "There is indeed a church in Misaki City..." "But, the secret of training agents..." "Don't worry, I have a solution." Victor smiled and said, "Just tell me whether you accept it or not." "If you can succeed..." Kuonji Yuju looked at Victor deeply, and then said: "Since he has become a member of the magician, then I naturally have no reason to continue to kill him, but what if I fail." "Then let him join the church." Hearing this, Victor said without hesitation: "Among the church's affiliated confidential personnel, there are a large number of ordinary people who serve the mystery. They are qualified to know the mystery, and the Magician Association has no right to interfere." "..." As soon as these words were spoken, not only Kuonji Yuju, but even Aozaki Aoko's breathing stopped. No, how could you, a magician from the Magicians Association, say such outrageous words? Join the church?
That would aid the enemy! "In short, you see, there are many solutions." Victor Bear spread his hands, glanced at Aozaki Aoko beside him, and smiled, "In fact, I have always felt that the Magician Association can refer to the Church in this regard, so as to avoid the current situation where the Magician Association is obviously understaffed. At least the difference in the number of people is not even on the same level as the Church." The church's agents even include ordinary priests who serve as drivers and secretaries. What about the magicians? However, Victor understood. The church can do this because they have a core premise called "faith" that allows them to always remain united. As for magicians...there really isn't any central idea that can serve as a core concept. Chapter 67: The magician is still alive? "You accepted a human apprentice?" In a slightly spacious courtyard, the quiet moonlight sprinkled over the swimming pool. Victor leaned against a tree in the corner, admiring Artelucchi soaking in the water and hummed. Now, Aozaki Aoko and Kuonji Arizuma have almost completely trusted him and lifted all restrictions. He can now freely enter and leave the small villa in the mountains. But you still can't use magic casually. "Or a normal person?" Altluqi frowned slightly: "Forgive me for not being able to understand." "Then don't try to understand it. Just think of it as a sudden impulse on my part." Victor smiled and said, "Sometimes I get inspired and want to do some experiments." "So you should know about it, right? The church's so-called secret technique for training." "I know a little bit." Hearing this, Artluqi retracted her gaze, let her little feet dip in the water a few times, and said lazily: "It's nothing more than the so-called baptism and blessing." "Baptism?" Victor pinched his chin, "I heard that thing requires holy water..." "...The water poured out of the Holy Grail... well, I don't know what it was originally, but the inferior version is just water filled with magic, isn't it?" Artluki said with great disdain: "To put it bluntly, it is just using mystery to water and force inferior talents to bloom. It's a simple and crude thing." "...Is it that simple?" Victor was stunned. "What do you think?" Altluchi asked, "It's as if the awakening of magic talent is some kind of secret..." "The so-called blessing during the Age of Gods was nothing more than forcing the knights to master magic through mysterious guidance." "It's just that the world was full of mysteries at that time. Even ordinary people, once exposed to the mysteries, could directly become... well, a half-baked magician now." Seeing Victor's sudden realization, Altluchi thought for a moment and added, "However, the church has made progress over the past thousand years. At least their rituals are worth learning—" "Using magic to forcibly stimulate the bodies of ordinary people is risky, and the risks are very great. The church's rituals and baptism can effectively prevent these risks." "Then you can?"
"Hmm... Why do you think that a Dead Apostle like me can teach you the techniques?" "..."Because I can use the baptismal chant... Victor thought about it and it seemed a bit unreasonable - although Artelucci could be considered half an antique, no one stipulated that an antique had to know everything. "Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. I'm going to visit the local cathedral church later—" "Hmm? There is a Holy Church in this city?" Hearing this, Artelucci suddenly became excited: "That..." "No need to talk!" Victor rejected Altluchi's unspoken request without a second thought. Just kidding, it was a good thing that Misaki City was similar to Fuyuki City. Even the church only had one or two lonely guards on duty, and it was not large in scale. Otherwise, I guess the first thing Altluchi would do when he came to this city is to destroy the church... "Speaking of which, what have you been busy with recently? Why do I feel like your presence is so low recently? And how is Aozaki Touko doing?" "As for Aozaki Touko, she's been on the move quite frequently lately, but overall she's been moving around the city, so my familiars can't keep too close an eye on her." Oh, that means we are about to prepare for the attack. Victor nodded slightly. A few days ago, Aozaki Aoko almost exhausted herself without using any magic. Instead, she simply used magic cannons to fight the enemy. This was probably enough for Aozaki Aoko to confirm that she had not inherited the fifth method. But... there are more than thirty magic nodes in the Aozaki family alone in the entire city. It will probably take a lot of time to break through them all one by one. If the barrier of the Aozaki family is not broken, it will be difficult for me to take any action... If it really doesn’t work... let Arteluqi go and help the other party? Tsk, no way, I want to be a traitor again... Forget it, I'll reserve my opinion for now. I've worked so hard to raise Aozaki Aoko's favorability. "how about you?" "Me? Hehe, of course I'm just having fun, but maybe I can give you a surprise then." surprise? Hearing this, Victor's mouth twitched. Come on, you're still surprised. Not frightening, that's good enough. …… After bidding farewell to the bored Altluchi, Victor came alone to a remote area of Misaki City, where stood a slightly desolate church, with the word "Gota" vaguely written on a plaque hanging outside the door. This is Goda Church. It is the only church in Misaki City, and it is also the place where the Holy Church has always sent spirit vein supervisors. Victor looked up and stared for a while, with bloodshot eyes flowing. After a long time, the bloodshot faded away, and he walked forward and gently knocked on the door. After a while, a man came out. He was a priest with long hair and glasses, looking quite gentle. But underneath this gentle calmness, he was a complete egoist.
Wenbing chants about pears. Victor vaguely remembered some of his impressions, um... Aozaki Touko's first love, although it was only unrequited love... The person who killed her grandfather in front of Aozaki Touko—— "A foreign magician suddenly visited us. Is there something going on?" "Hmm? Apparently you know me?" "After all, he is the supervisor of the spirit vein. Although he doesn't eliminate it and doesn't care about the things in the outside world, he still has some understanding of the outside world."
