Thats amazing. I mean it sincerely. Yareli said from the passenger seat. With one hand, she executed a magical incantation that Oliver had taught her, demonstrating it on a small scale.
Even among the prodigies assembled at the Magic Tower, her presence stood out as she adapted intricate and perilous magical formulas, centered around magic itself, to her unique style, showcasing her innate talent.
Thanks for the compliment, but I didnt create that formula. Its just an imitation of what Ive seen. The praise should go to Mr. Willes, who created it. Oliver acknowledged, mentioning Willes, one of the leaders of the Kel Liberation Army.
At first glance, Willess fire magic appeared basic, adhering to fundamental principles, but beneath its surface lay creativity, a willingness to take risks, and a spirit of challenge. Most importantly, it was infused with talent and dedication.
It was a type of fire magic that could prove dangerous if mishandled, making its existence even more remarkable.
This was why Oliver held Willes in such high regard for creating such magic.
Youre right, but being able to imitate and even teach it is a talent that shouldnt be underestimated. Yareli replied.
She labeled it as mere talent for the sake of convenience, but she couldnt deny that Olivers ability went beyond talent. To replicate something after seeing it once was undoubtedly a remarkable talent, a divine gift, but the capacity to grasp that essence with just a touch transcended the realm of talent.
It was akin to not calling the ability to fly in the sky a talent.
Oliver had claimed to have learned this technique in the distant Eastern deserts, but it didnt make sense.Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om
When would he, raised by a warlock organization and later taken in by Merlin, have had the opportunity to learn techniques from the distant Eastern deserts?
A moments reflection revealed it to be an absurd falsehood.
In fact, from the very beginning, it was unclear whether his claim was true or false. He simply insisted that it was.
Yareli, and her grandmother, the One Master of the Skadi sub School, found it increasingly challenging to make sense of what they witnessed.
Even after experiencing it firsthand, it felt unreal and inexplicable.
Suddenly, Yareli began to question whether the order to observe Zenon was solely because he was a disciple of the Archiver.
Miss Yareli.
Yes?
Weve arrived.
Yareli had been so engrossed in practicing the formula and lost in thought that she hadnt even realized they had reached the logistics center.
She hurriedly deactivated the formula she was practicing and exited the vehicle in a hurry.
Werent you planning to get out of the car when we were close by? To approach carefully?
That was the plan, but I didnt feel any signs of anyone around. replied Oliver, who had also disembarked. Indeed, there were no indications of anyone inside the logistics center warehouse. Yareli, with a sense of foreboding, extended her mana like a thread to thoroughly scan the surroundings but still found no one.
It was an unexpected situation, leaving Yareli puzzled.
Is this the right place?
According to the map, it is.
Oliver shrank the vehicle they had received from Rokuri University using a reduction spell, lightened it with a weight reduction spell, and placed it in his pocket.
Despite his clumsy appearance, his abilities and task management were dependable, prompting Yareli to reevaluate the situation at the logistics center.
Is this place unrelated to Human-meat Chef? Or has someone already cleaned up and fled?
Either way, it didnt make sense. Even if it had nothing to do with Human-meat Chef, the abrupt closure was unusual, and the idea that Human-meat Chef had cleaned up and fled didnt quite add up, especially with dozens of other businesses still operational.
It would have been a target for an attack.
Yareli contemplated the situation but soon realized that thinking alone wouldnt solve this mystery. It required a firsthand investigation.
Lets go in and have a look. Who knows what we might find.
I agree. replied Oliver.
A different, unexpected voice interjected.
Both Yareli and Oliver turned in surprise towards the source of the sound.
There stood a man who had not been there just moments ago.
With his shoulders squared, a clean jawline, a flat stomach, impeccably groomed hair, and dressed in a stylish suit, the man appeared almost ethereal. He greeted them with a blend of politeness and arrogance.
Pleased to meet you. I am Human-meat Chef.
The man revealed his identity without hesitation. Yareli was startled but quickly sensed that his words were true.
The reason was the immense amount of mana radiating from the man, filling the spacious basement. It defied common sense.
Realizing the situation, Yareli acted immediately.
She concentrated mana on her feet and activated a spell. She attempted to create a massive ice pillar to freeze the entire space in the blink of an eye.
The problem was, Human-meat Chefs response exceeded that.
Shiiiiiing.
Human-meat Chefs brown iris turned red and emitted light, effortlessly melting Yarelis extensive ice with just a glance.
The power, precision, and speed of the reaction were all remarkable.
Oliver asked, Is that eye a special specimen too?
Right. It can burn anything just by looking. But I have no intention to do so now, so relax.
To prove his point, Human-meat Chef nonchalantly fetched a chair from a corner of the basement and sat down, showing no hostility.
Observing his vast and turbulent emotions, Oliver inquired, May we also bring chairs and sit down?
Human-meat Chef nodded in approval, and Oliver, bowing his head slightly in politeness, fetched two chairs.
Yareli watched Oliver silently, as if questioning his actions.
Oliver reassured her, He doesnt intend to harm us for now, so we dont need to worry immediately.
Right, if I wanted to kill you, I would have done it already. Sit down, Human-meat Chef remarked casually, with an attitude that was both vexing and strangely persuasive.
Yareli shifted her gaze between Human-meat Chef and Oliver before finally sitting down on a chair. Following her lead, Oliver also took a seat, prompting Human-meat Chef to speak.
By the way, can you read my emotions?
They are vast and tumultuous like waves, not easy, but I can catch glimpses of them.
Oh Good eyes. I see why Puppet might have protected you for a while.
The Black Hands finger, the Eternal Puppet Yareli was startled once again by these words and glanced at Oliver.
Normally, Oliver would have responded, but he also had a question of his own, so he temporarily set aside his usual reactions.
Do you know Puppet well?
We talk. Hes one of the few humans I can communicate with. At the same time, hes the most inscrutable Thats why I was curious. I wanted to see what kind of person Puppet had taken a momentary interest in.
