Lily: Sorry for the Trouble
"Iver... really knows a lot of things."
Isabel opened his eyes wide, eyes as pure as Grandmother green shining in the bright moonlight.
The full moon outside the window was as bright as a mirror, and the moonlight was like gauze, shining on the two of them through the window. Whether it's Iver's body or the white pajamas on Isabel's body, they all shine under the moonlight.
She looked at Iver with admiration. "Whether it's Lower District or Round Table Hall... I still know the ritual of loss and Path Trait. I can't... It's hard for me to just recite the form the teacher gave me. It's really hard to remember."
Hard to remember?
Iver's heart moved, and he asked curiously, "What does the Path Trait suggestion list that Master Agnes gave you look like? Is it very complicated?"
"Yeah."
Isabel nodded and complained in a low voice, "It was a form that the teacher gave me not long ago. The teacher said that it didn't matter when I was promoted for the first time, because I couldn't choose any good entries anyway. But starting from the second time Promotion Ritual, I can't just come here casually.
"It's basically something like, 'If you have mastered some ability but haven't mastered any ability, then what should you choose and what not choose when there are several Path Traits that appear at this time' and the like.
"For example, unless there is really no other choice, I cannot choose the container entry, even if it is purple. Because Path of Beauty's 'art' ability basically does not consume mana.
"It's like the [Resilient Illusion] I chose this time. The teacher specifically said that if more than one of [Cunning Spell], [Resilient Illusion], and [True Illusion] appear at the same time, [Cunning Spell] will be selected first, followed by [Resilient Illusion]. And if you haven't mastered [Resilient Illusion], don't choose it when you see [True Illusion]; but if you have mastered [Cunning Spell], don't choose it even if you have [Resilient Illusion].
"Or, if you see [Resilient Illusion] and [Voice of Miracles] at the same time, select [Voice of Miracles]; but if you see [Cunning Spell] and [Voice of Miracles], select [Cunning Spell]... something like that."
Isabel was very distressed. "There are so many possibilities! Last week, the teacher gave me a dense list of hundreds or thousands of situations. Most of them were about what I could choose and what I should choose and what not to choose when I already have something... I was asked to memorize it in three days. And many of the words in it are the same, so it is really hard to remember!"
"... What a stupid idea."
Iver sighed, "But it's pretty easy to use."
The career inheritance that Isabel received is obviously different from that of Knight - according to little Barton, his parents made a list for him and then he chose from it.
Only select entries with excellent cost performance, regardless of the linkage effect between entries. Only use what you can use, even if it is weaker, instead of adjusting your route based on the effect of the entry.
And Yanis obviously knows more about this. But after all, she couldn't be by Isabel's side all the time to help her with reference, and she didn't know what entries Isabel would randomly find. So I simply listed all the possibilities in detail, and then Isabel can choose according to the formula.
In this way, she has the highest probability of choosing the optimal combination.
Just like when playing auto chess, new players actually don't have many versions to understand... But as long as the formula given by the boss with sufficient game understanding is comprehensive enough to cover all situations, there is no problem.
This can be regarded as the simplest and crudest professional inheritance. In the true sense, "knowledge changes destiny".
"Then what were your two previous traits?"
Iver asked curiously.
Although Path Trait is everyone's biggest secret and is closely related to life safety... But Isabel has told himself the third characteristic, so there is nothing to hide the previous low-level characteristics.
Sure enough, Isabel did not hide it at all, but directly revealed it all. "After I decided to become 'All-rounder', the first characteristic I chose was 'Light Affinity', and the second one was 'Nimble Voice'."
"They're all good."
Iver's eyes lit up and he praised, "At least there is nothing negative or useless."
Although the first one is a bit confusing, it's actually okay - among common artistic abilities, painting and calligraphy are Water Attribute, sculpture and architecture are Earth Attribute, singing and dancing with sacrificial attributes are Light Attribute, musical instrument playing is Wind Attribute, and screenwriting and novels with false and hallucinatory attributes are Dark Attribute.
Of course, there are also inheritances that use Fire Attribute or Wind Attribute Mana to dance, or use Light Attribute magic to paint and write, but those are not the mainstream after all.
With Light Affinity, at least her singing and dancing abilities will be further improved.
And "Nimble Voice" is a percentage-effect-increasing entry similar to "Flesh Dedication"... which can be regarded as Blue Entry with quite high value.
Its effect is to simultaneously increase the difficulty and effectiveness of spellcasting for all song-mediated abilities.
The reason why it is not a purple entry is because it is a passive entry, not a switchable entry like "Body of Light".
Holding this entry can indeed make low-difficulty magic songs have stronger effects, but it can easily cause high-difficulty advanced magic songs to fail - of course, if it succeeds, it will be more obvious after the higher basic effect and percentage increase.
"... Although it's a little messy, it's not a big problem."
Iver thought for a while and gave a suggestion, "It's better to give priority to [Cunning Spell]. Cunning Spell can give you a chance to remedy the failure of all spells or spell-like abilities that do not cause damage."
In game terms, all spell abilities that do not cause damage can be re-rolled once on failure.
"I think Master Agnes is because you hold 'Nimble Voice' and may fail when singing difficult magic songs later, so you will be given priority to find this entry.
"From the perspective of expected value, for example, even if there is a one-fifth probability of success, as long as you have Cunning Spell, the success rate will be more than one-third; if it was originally one-third, it will become about half; if there is half, it will become three-quarters."
Isabel is not very good at mathematics, so Iver chose to describe it in a simpler and more intuitive way. "In this way, you have reduced the negative effects of Nimble Voice, but gained its positive effects.
"And when the illusion is seen through by the opponent, it will also trigger the effect of [Cunning Spell]. It will make it harder for your illusion to fail.
"In comparison, [True Illusion], which 'can cause illusions to cause physical damage', is not that useful. Instead, it may invalidate your Cunning Spell, because it turns your illusion into a damaging spell."
"... So that's it."
Isabel suddenly realized. "The teacher just told me to memorize it, but didn't tell me why. Iver I understand when you say this!"
After all, it's just an urgent cramming before the exam. Iver thought to himself.
It's impossible to memorize this kind of thing a few days in advance... It's just like not explaining it well in class, and rushing to highlight the key points before Final Exam. It's outrageous.
Master Agnes can carefully deduce various situations for Isabel, writing hundreds or thousands of possibilities. It can be seen that she really loves Isabel. But with this stupid method, Iver also feels that she really doesn't know how to teach students.
... which is reasonable.
Although she is Isabel's teacher on the surface, she is actually Isabel's bodyguard... She is not very old as an elf, and she has most likely never been anyone else's teacher before. This is also the first time.
Because they were a little tired from standing, they sat back on the bed while chatting.
Isabel looked around nervously, then gently patted Iver's pillow.
"What for?"
Iver is a little confused.
"Just lie down."
Isabel whispered, "You'd better wrap yourself in a quilt... I can't bear to see it."
"I'm not cold."
Iver emphasized. "It's really not cold."
Iver It's true that it's not cold - not to mention the winter temperature, even if you soak him in ice water for a while, he won't get frostbite.
Third Level is a big qualitative change. It can even be said... it was only from Third Level that he officially embarked on the path to transcendence.
Because starting from Third Level, extraordinary power will begin to have a significant impact on the body.
Before that, extraordinary beings were just ordinary people who could use some special powers. Even if an ordinary person attacks first with a gun, there is a high probability that he can defeat the extraordinary... And if there are dozens of ordinary people with guns, they will have no choice but to surrender.
But starting from Third Level, the situation began to be different.
The earliest career promotion started with Third Level. Starting from this energy level, it becomes difficult for ordinary people to defeat extraordinary beings.
Even Isabel, who is purely an auxiliary, can now be as flexible as an excellent gymnast. The power bursting out of her body can even allow her to move at high speeds through ropes or climb walls dexterously. She can now easily climb over a two- to three-meter-high wall without the use of tools; she can even avoid arrows that are farther away after seeing them.
If you are a Path of Beauty transcendent who is proficient in dancing, you can still do it even better. But Isabel is All-rounder...All-rounder, which means that she is not as good as other Path of Beauty transcendents who specialize in a certain way. However, her ability is the most comprehensive, and agility is only a secondary attribute for her.
The primary increase Path Power has over Iver is his vitality.
Even without using the "Sacrificial Fire", he can now rely on his body's rapid self-repair to perform Illumination Spell. Probably using all the mana of lighting, it can be fully restored directly with natural blood regeneration. If he was cut by a dagger, there would probably be only a white mark left in an hour. Even a penetrating injury from a firearm can be recovered in a day or two.
After all, the art of "Sacrificing Fire" is a sacred art carefully selected by the church. Before this technique is developed, if Dedication Path's extraordinary beings do not have strong enough vitality, they will be squeezed dry by Illumination Spell.
"No, you'd better cover yourself with a quilt."
Isabel said firmly, "I'll just sit next to you."
Unable to resist her, Iver also got into the quilt. Although I am not afraid of the cold, it is definitely more comfortable inside the quilt than outside... lying down is better than sitting down.
Mainly lying on the bed and chatting with the person sitting next to the bed, which feels a bit strange. Iver originally wanted to lean on the pillow, but was forced into it by Isabel.
——I was wearing a two-piece suit, but Iver was not wearing any clothes. This not only made Isabel a little unbearable and a little embarrassed... the main reason was that she couldn't help but glance at Iver.
This made her feel ashamed.
She brought herself to Iver, thinking that if Iver looked at her like this, she would feel ashamed.
——But she really couldn't control herself! My vision drifted away by itself!
"Actually, I have also mastered some new abilities."
Iver smiled and said, "Want to try it? My Blessing Art."
"How to try?"
Isabel is a little curious and a little excited.
"Put your head over and close your eyes." Iver said.
And Isabel obediently bowed his head and came over.
Iver put his hand on Isabel's forehead, showing a Fox-like smile, "This is Blessing Art, the Sacred Art that only the bishop has. According to the rules, shouldn't you say something to me at this time?"
For example, dear Bishop Iver, could you please give me Si Zhu's blessing? But upon hearing this, Isabel's face immediately turned red.
She hesitated for a while.
Taking a deep breath, he whispered, "Dad, dad..."
Iver's eyes suddenly widened and he was stunned.
"... Huh?"
Seeing Iver's reaction, Isabel immediately knew that he had misunderstood Iver's meaning.
Her face suddenly turned red.
She subconsciously wanted to run away, but as soon as she stood up and turned around, she suddenly saw Lily standing quietly behind her.
Isabel screamed in fright, and fell back onto the bed.
"...Isabel, Your Highness?"
Lily's face was still a little sleepy. "Are you here...?"
When she said this, she suddenly paused.
Lily looked at Iver's pajamas on Isabel, and his expression became a little subtle.
She bowed slightly. "Sorry to bother you."
"No, no, no, I didn't disturb you. You misunderstood!"
Isabel suddenly became anxious and rushed forward to catch Lily.
