Chapter 377 Understanding Cassie
Connors has no way of sharing or bestowing any of his abilities upon others.
Either give your "Active Life Equation" directly to the other party, like before, or use the "Active Life Equation" to accomplish the task, like "Ghost" Iliana.
Although the shy and enchanting Cassie in front of him was very attractive, and seemed ready to be taken advantage of, Connors was not so impatient as to disregard everything else.
Driven by instinct, Connors asked:
"That's all Diana told you? She didn't say anything more?"
The amazing girl, Cassie, shook her head.
Now Connors was even more puzzled. He once again followed his usual approach: if he couldn't figure it out, he wouldn't think about it and would just do it.
Thus, this was the first time Connors had cleared a passageway in a daze since his time travel, while the magical girl Cassie, half curious and half bursting with curiosity, became friends with Connors in the mysterious house.
This time, Connors didn't try anything funny and didn't show off his "Master Pilot" skills in front of the clueless and naive Cassie.
He simply lay on his side on the sofa in the mysterious house, holding the magical girl Cassie in front of him.
This pose is only decent for viewing on camera; it's not actually a good experience for the two people in the middle of a fight. But that's only for ordinary people. It doesn't exist for Connors, who has "polymer chain mimicry."
"Diana may have just been fooling her little follower, but no one expected that Cassie would actually believe her."
Connors silently sensed Wonder Woman Cassie's power and found that there was no improvement. He concluded that Wonder Woman was playing a joke on his best friend.
But as time went on, Connors gradually sensed that something was wrong.
Many of his "watching the drama unfold" rewards are usually always active, such as "Charm," "Adaptive Translation," "Master Driver," and "Spider-Sense."
Of the abilities activated at these times, one that is used relatively infrequently is "Magic Affinity".
The original purpose of this ability was to grant an innate affinity and talent for magic, allowing one to learn and utilize all forms of magic. This enabled Connors to transform into a great mage even without other abilities.
But like many other abilities, Connors also used the "magical affinity" ability a little in a slightly off way. Apart from learning Doctor Strange's magic in battle, Connors used it all to understand the magic side of female heroes.
While Connors was in a daze, the activated "Magic Affinity" began to work, and Connors inexplicably felt that his strength, reaction and other physical qualities had improved.
This improvement was so subtle that it would have been impossible for him to detect without his "precision control" ability.
Connors, who was working hard, suddenly stopped.
It should be noted that his physical abilities had already been elevated to an inhuman level, but after some insightful discussions with the magical girl Cassie, he was able to improve even further, which shows that "magical affinity" was indeed working.
How do you feel?
Connors quickly asked Wonder Girl Cassie, but because their current posture was too ambiguous, Cassie blushed and only said after a long while:
"Diana didn't lie to me."
"So, Cassie's strength did indeed increase because of me?" Connors asked.
"I think I've guessed the reason. Is your power generated through blessings, bestowal, magic, or something similar?"
Cassie realized that Connors was asking a serious question, and without hesitation, she replied:
"Yes, I received Zeus's blessing, which gave me superhuman physical abilities and the ability to fly."
Connors nodded. That made sense. No wonder Wonder Woman Diana and Casey said that. The real reason was that the "magical affinity" ability could enhance Casey's powers once again.
With his doubts dispelled, Connors focused intently on deciphering the mystery of the magical girl, Cassie, but the shy girl suddenly burst into tears:
"Do you know? I was alone in a dark tomb with a corpse as my companion, and I turned into a monster covered in spikes."
Connors wiped away Casey's tears:
"I know."
The magical girl Casey grabbed Connors' hand as he wiped away her tears:
"I don't know how much time passed after that, until my body returned to normal, that I was able to climb out by myself."
"But after that I was all alone, and I've been struggling with that thing inside me ever since."
"I'm afraid to make friends, afraid to enjoy things that make me relax, and I can't even get myself drunk, because if I do that I'll lose control and become a non-human monster."
Connors remained silent this time; he knew that what Wonder Girl Cassie needed right now was to be listened to, not to be comforted.
"Every time I lose focus, the armor inside my body bursts out, and I lose a small part of myself, both physically and spiritually."
"But you're not alone anymore. You can sleep all day, get drunk, and soak in hot springs—you don't have to live such a tiring life anymore," Connors said.
"Um."
The magical girl Cassie agreed, then turned over and hugged Connors tightly, leaving no gap between them.
Two hours later, Connors led Cassie back to reality.
"Supergirl" Kara and "Spark" Corianda were still chatting hand in hand. Two hours had passed in the Mysterious House, but only a few minutes had passed in the outside world under Connors's deliberate manipulation.
"Cassie!"
The alien princess Corianda ran over and looked Cassie up and down carefully:
"Are you completely free from the Silent Armor?"
As a fellow member of the Teen Titans, "Starfire" Coreanda naturally knew that her companion was constantly tormented by the "Silent Armor," but it seems that Cassie is no longer in that torment.
"Hmm." Cassie nodded, then clenched her fist tightly.
Golden spikes emerged from her body once more, completely covering her from head to toe.
Unlike before, this time Cassie's body was no longer covered in blood due to the armor, and he showed no signs of pain whatsoever.
"Spark" Corey was genuinely happy for her friend:
"Great! You've completely mastered the armor. Your combat power will definitely leap to become stronger than Superboy and the others."
Connors interrupted Corey's excited speech, which was about to continue:
"Cassie's armor still has a small problem that needs fixing. Are you coming with me, or staying here?"
Super Girl Cara stood up without hesitation:
"Wherever you go, I'll go."
"Spark" Corianda also said:
"This world was created by accident because of Cassie's previous loss of control, so of course I'll stay with you."
Connors' destination is related to the "Trigon Demon" in the mind of the magical girl Cassie. He has not forgotten that the cosmic-level demon also exists in Cassie's body along with the "Tranquil Armor".
