Identity Mission: Become the Honkai Will?

"Ah, well... I didn't think it was anything worth mentioning," Chen Luo said innocently.

Chen Luo wasn't lying; Chen Luo genuinely felt there was nothing to brag about.

Anyone who has Furniture Mastery can do it.

"... I'm very curious about your current level of magic. Could we have a fight using only magic?" Yun Lian'er said to Chen Luo after thinking for a moment.

"No, although I've read a lot of magic books, the only spell I'm really good at is Fireball Technique, which isn't anything special," Chen Luo quickly shook his head.

Chen Luo's reason for learning magic was not to use it against enemies, but to use its versatility to resolve some requests.

For example, if someone wants to repair something, Chen Luo can use the repair magic of the Irena world.

Like Shana the Scarlet-Eyed always wanted to restore the painting given to her by her friend, thus collecting the power of existence for hundreds of years.

Different worlds have different rules. In some places, it is very difficult to repair something, but in other worlds, it is very easy to repair something.

Therefore, although Chen Luo knows a lot about magic, he really studies auxiliary and healing magic among these spells.

If we're talking about using magic to fight enemies, although Chen Luo does know a lot of elemental magic, as well as some support and attack magic, the one he's most skilled at and has actually used several times is the Fireball Technique.

Although Chen Luo hasn't upgraded his Modified Fireball Technique to the insane Modified Fireball Technique yet, Chen Luo's really afraid of injuring Yun Lian'er.

After all, that wasn't just a simple Fireball Technique; it was like using the Herrscher Core as a firecracker.

The Fireball Technique, which uses the Herrscher Core of Flame as a medium, not only consumes a lot of energy but also has a ridiculously high power. Moreover, due to the strong Honkai energy it contains, it is extremely aggressive towards people.

This has led to a strange phenomenon with Chen Luo. Although Chen Luo is not much worse than Yun Lian'er in terms of magical theory, he knows a lot of basic and intermediate magic and even has a super Fireball Technique Chen Luo, but he does not have any advanced magic that he can use for daily combat.

Either I can't defeat you with intermediate and basic magic, or I'll just kill you with Fireball Technique. You choose.

There is no magic that can defeat you without killing you.

Those spells did exist in Chen Luo's mind, even Forbidden Spell, but Chen Luo didn't learn them.

Because when it really comes down to needing to use Forbidden Spell, it's better to just go straight for the opponent and unleash Tai Xu Sword God.

"Patchouli told me that the 2,000 magic books contain countless spells of all kinds. You shouldn't just master this knowledge; you should also learn to apply it." Yun Lian'er couldn't help but sigh.

"But I've only been learning magic for a month." Chen Luo said with a slight sense of grievance.

I'm still a magic apprentice!

"..." Yun Lian'er didn't know what to say.

Chen Luo's words made some sense, but not much.

You've studied magic for a month and you're better than me in a year. Who's the natural talent for magic?

After all, even if Yun Lian'er were to read 2,000 magic books in half an hour, let's not even talk about whether she could finish reading them. Even if she could, she would definitely die immediately after finishing them.

"However, no matter what, since you have indeed learned a lot of magic, you should have your own spellbook or staff. Since you think you are a beginner, then a beginner should have a casting medium." Looking at Chen Luo, who was looking at her innocently, Yun Lian'er finally said helplessly.

Yun Lian'er looked at Chen Luo; he didn't seem like a magic novice at all.

"A magic wand? That makes sense. I'll get one later. I remember there was a book about making magic wands among the 2000 magic books I read. Let me think about whether it's possible to make a magic wand out of soul steel..."

Yun Lian'er's suggestion was very constructive, because only with a magic wand could one better deceive people, claiming to be Magus and then getting the other party to suddenly attack them.

Finally, I'll unleash a Tai Xu Sword God attack on the opponent.

"Chen Luo, the magic book you requested has arrived," Patchouli said to Chen Luo as she hurried upstairs.

Behind Patchouli floated dozens of magic books.

"These are all the magic books about dolls in my entire library." Patchouli pointed, and the dozens of magic books slowly floated to Chen Luo's side and landed on the floor.

"Thank you, MQ." Chen Luo ran to the pile of books with a look of surprise and touched them.

"If you really want to thank me, then please don't call me 'MQ' anymore, okay?" Patchouli sighed and sat down in Chen Luo's seat, having just moved aside.

That was Patchouli's spot all along.

"With so many magic books, it would take me at least half a month to finish reading them all, and that would just be the beginning..."

"Okay, I've finished reading it. I'll trouble you to carry this back later. I'm going downstairs now. I feel like I'm about to break through." Before Yun Lian'er could finish speaking, Chen Luo instantly stood up from his squatting position and ran downstairs.

"..."

"See? I told you he could read 2,000 magic books in half an hour." Patchouli shrugged, seeing Yun Lian'er's slightly surprised expression.

"..."

That's outrageous.

Yun Lian'er began to wonder if Chen Luo had surpassed her in terms of magical knowledge alone.

Reading like that is soulless!

"Yakumo Yukari, Yakumo Yukari, quickly use the Boundary of Life and Death on me! I feel like I'm about to break through!" Chen Luo rushed downstairs and said directly to Yakumo Yukari, who was having dinner with Yuyuko.

"What the hell? I'm warning you, don't even think about trying to scam me again." Upon hearing Chen Luo's words, Yakumo Yukari immediately covered her head.

Yakumo Yukari hasn't forgotten the feeling of the Tai Xu Sword God getting so close to her face.

"Don't worry, I definitely won't use the Tai Xu Sword God technique to beat you up this time, really. I desperately need to die once, and then use the insights gained from being in a life-or-death situation to break through my Puppet Master skills," Chen Luo said to Yakumo Yukari with utmost sincerity.

The puppeteer's abilities always improved in ways that Chen Luo never expected.

For example, when Chen Luo obtained the Puppet Master's Stigmata, when Chen Luo became the Herrscher of Domination, when Chen Luo obtained the Fate Puppet ability, and when Chen Luo upgraded his S-rank ability to SS rank, and the Herrscher of Domination was completely transformed into his own shape by the Puppet Master profession.

Chen Luo didn't understand, but Chen Luo was often deeply shocked.

After instantly understanding those dozens of magic books about puppets, Chen Luo's puppeteer skills, which were already on the verge of a breakthrough, were even closer to a breakthrough.

Now it's just one step away from success.

And this kick will require Yakumo Yukari to deliver.

After all, there is great terror and great enlightenment between life and death.

While it's true that you can make progress gradually without taking shortcuts, who wouldn't want to take shortcuts if they could?

"No, what if I really kill you? Who knows how many people will come looking for revenge?" Yakumo Yukari shook her head frantically.

"You're really overthinking it. How could someone as weak as you possibly kill me? Besides, I can resurrect."

"... If you can't express yourself well, then use a different adjective," Yakumo Yukari face.

You're the one who's bad at it, your whole family is bad at it.

"So you dare to come?" Chen Luo looked at Yakumo Yukari provocatively.

"Alright, stop provoking me. Thanks to some bastard who used the Tai Xu Sword God right in my face, I had to use all my demonic power to resist it. As a result, my demonic power hasn't fully recovered yet, so I can't use the Life and Death realm. So let's talk about it tomorrow." Yakumo Yukari waved her hand impatiently.

"Which bastard is it... Okay, it's me. It's a deal then, give me a go tomorrow."

"Okay, okay. Don't bother me while I'm eating," Yakumo Yukari said with a hint of disgust.

Chapter 508 Identity Mission: Become the Honkai Consciousness?

"Oh, the majestic Remilia Scarlet has arrived." Chen Luo said to Remilia, who was sitting at the bar looking around curiously, after he sat back down.

This time, Patchouli not only told Remilia where she was when she returned, but also took Remilia directly to the bar.

Chen Luo had no objection to this matter. Only Yakumo Yukari had some complaints, but it was of no use.

Chen Luo was happy to see this situation. After all, he hadn't given Remilia the bar card back then because Yakumo Yukari was there. Now that Patchouli had invited her in, it was no longer Chen Luo's business.

Besides, Chen Luo didn't sign any agreement with Yakumo Yukari that forbade other people from Gensokyo from coming to the bar.

Moreover, Chen Luo had already done more than enough for Yakumo Yukari Yasaka Kanako. Otherwise, if they had known about the bar, they might not have come to Gensokyo at all. Isn't the bar better than Gensokyo?

At least that's the case for Moriya Sanae.

"I have a feeling there's something hidden in what you said." Remilia stroked her chin, pondering what Chen Luo had just said.

It seems fine, but there's something wrong with it.

"You're overthinking it. Welcome to Zero Bar. We welcome all customers who are interested in bars. And you don't have to worry about being harmed by other unknown people with special abilities. Although their abilities can be used, they won't work on anyone in the bar."

"Oh, really?" Remilia wasn't quite convinced.

"If you don't believe me, you can see for yourself," Chen Luo said.

Remilia used her power of fate without saying a word, and then looked at everyone present.

"..." Remilia was surprised to find that although she could still see the trajectory of everyone's fate, this bar seemed to be independent of all fates.

Moreover, regarding the trajectory of those destinies, Remilia could only observe the traces from afar but was unable to intervene in any way.

Even if you can only see those traces to confirm that the other person is indeed a person with a destiny, you cannot see the things that happened and didn't happen to the other person as recorded in those destiny trajectories.

You asked Chen Luo why he could observe the contents of the other person's Fate Threads?

Store managers always need some privileges, right?

"Miss Remilia, please stop using your Destiny Ability to observe other people. Be careful, or you'll be put on the bar's unwelcome list if they find out," Chen Luo whispered a reminder.

Although Remilia's ability to Control Destiny is indeed stronger than Chen Luo's, after all, she has lived for 500 years, the blessing Chen Luo received in the bar is no joke; at least it ensures that Chen Luo can detect any unusual movements of the customers.

"This place is really interesting." Remilia became interested in the place.

"If you're at the bar, just tell me if you want anything to drink or eat, it's on me." Yakumo Yukari, who had just dismissed Chen Luo with disdain, suddenly walked back to the bar and said to Remilia.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

Although it was Yakumo Yukari who made the request, Chen Luo did indeed receive the commission.

"Unsolicited kindness is always suspicious. What are you up to, Yakumo Yukari?" Remilia looked at Yakumo Yukari warily.

Although Remilia can't beat Yakumo Yukari, she can still talk trash, after all, Lady Remilia has always been very brave.

"Don't worry, I have no ulterior motives towards you. I just want to sign a contract with you. A contract about not making this bar's existence public." Yakumo Yukari said as she sat down next to Remilia.

"Oh, why should I listen to you?" Remilia said unhappily as she took the cup of black tea that Chen Luo handed her.

"Hmm, it's delicious." After taking a sip of the black tea, Remilia looked at Chen Luo with some surprise.

"I'm glad you like it. Here are some snacks as well." Chen Luo served Remilia some pastries she had ordered.

"Because once you sign the contract, I can tell you how to get him to fulfill your wish." Yakumo Yukari pointed at Chen Luo and gave him a mysterious smile.

"???" Chen Luo, who had been sitting quietly to the side, was completely bewildered when he was suddenly dragged into this.

Yakumo Yukari, what are you trying to do?

"Oh, do I need his help with something? I didn't know that?" Remilia narrowed her eyes.

This indicates that Remilia's vigilance towards Yakumo Yukari has reached a certain peak.

Remilia knew without Yakumo Yukari's reminder that Chen Luo was the one who could bring about change to the Gensokyo Scarlet Devil Mansion, but why Yakumo Yukari was so certain that she needed help still made Remilia quite wary.

"Because although he may seem harmless, he can help you fulfill any wish, provided he's willing," Yakumo Yukari said with a smile.

"???"

Holy crap, Yakumo Yukari, can you please not drag me into your bragging?

Chen Luo was shocked.

Chen Luo never dared to say that he could do everything. Although Chen Luo knew that intimidating others first was an extremely effective way to make a deal, he said, "Don't praise me, praise yourself!"

"For example, how to stabilize your sister's mental state," Yakumo Yukari said, offering a proposal that Remilia couldn't refuse.

Remilia never doubted that Yakumo Yukari knew about this, because Yakumo Yukari was spying on the entire Gensokyo, so there was nothing she didn't know.

"Really?" Remilia asked Chen Luo for confirmation after hearing Yakumo Yukari's words.

"While I certainly can't do everything, I do have some experience in maintaining a stable mental state," Chen Luo said.

"So, let's sign a contract. I'll tell you how to persuade him," Yakumo Yukari said.

"Okay, deal." Remilia nodded.

Remilia had no interest in spreading the word about the bar.

Or you could say that Remilia didn't know any of the people in Gensokyo at all.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"Then Chen Luo, I'll have to ask you to take out the Book of Contracts. As payment, I'll help you die as many times as you want tomorrow."

"..." After hearing Yakumo Yukari's words, Chen Luo Yakumo Yukari understood why she had promised to help him with her life-and-death boundary the next day. It turned out she was waiting for him here.
