Type-Moon: Upgrading Traits, Joining the Chat Group at the Start

Su Luo's gaze fell upon Ellen and Karen in the crowd as he, along with Tiamat, landed before the villagers.

Chapter 64: The Situation in the Date A Live World

"Esteemed sir, is there anything we can help you with?" the village chief stepped forward, asking politely and gently.

He was terrified that a single misstep might offend Su Luo and bring disaster upon the entire village.

Setting Su Luo aside for a moment, the woman beside him, with two large horns atop her head and a noble aura, was clearly no ordinary human.

Not to mention that Su Luo himself constantly exuded a powerful affinity that made people want to get closer.

Combined with the scene they had just witnessed, everyone present did not regard Su Luo and Tiamat as ordinary people.

"No need to be nervous. My arrival at this village was just an accident. I didn't expect there to be Magus here," Su Luo said with a smile.

"You flatter us, sir. The Magus of our lineage have long since declined. We don't know how long this situation can last," the village chief said with a wry smile.

He wasn't wrong about that.

Magus were inherently different from ordinary people, able to perceive things that others could not.

If they displayed their powers to ordinary people, it could easily lead to rejection and suppression.

Furthermore, as human technology advanced, ordinary humans wielded increasingly greater power.

The living environment for Magus became progressively worse.

A single mistake could lead to them being captured for research or killed outright.

This made them increasingly disgusted with humanity, so they chose to hide in the mountains and forests, far from the hustle and bustle of cities, and establish villages.

However, as time passed, the aptitude of their descendants grew worse and worse. Even though many Magecraft books were well-preserved, very few people could learn them.

The best Magus in the village was the girl, Ellen.

At such a young age, she had already surpassed these old men who had studied for a lifetime.

Her strength also made her the strongest Magus in the village.

This was enough to show their current dire situation.

"Have you never considered finding another path?" Su Luo inquired.

The village chief did not hide anything. "Yes, a few years ago, two young people were curious about the outside world and went out to explore."

"They returned two months ago, saying they had found a new path for Magus."

"However, their method was to cooperate with humans, which directly caused opposition from the villagers, and they rejected their proposal."

"Then they left the village once more."

"I suspect they were brainwashed by humans long ago and forgot why our ancestors chose to live in seclusion in the mountains."

The village chief shook his head with a sense of disappointment.

It was clear that he also opposed the actions of the young people he mentioned.

Seeing this, Su Luo understood that the two young people the village chief mentioned were likely Isaac and Eliok.

This was somewhat different from the original work.

In the original work, extremist factions of humanity targeted the Magus village and dispatched armies to launch a devastating attack.

Su Luo did not know the reason for this.

However, in the original work, Isaac and Eliok were still just children.

They happened to be outside playing and thus survived this catastrophe.

But here, Isaac and Eliok, along with Ellen and Karen, were already adults.

The only difference was that Ellen and Karen had always stayed in the village, researching Magecraft and delving into the mysteries of the occult.

Isaac and Eliok, on the other hand, had left the village years ago to develop their own paths outside.

They had also drawn human attention to the existence of the Magus village.

If nothing unexpected happened, this village would soon face a devastating blow.

With this thought, Su Luo's gaze shifted to Ellen and Karen, the two sisters dressed in black robes among the villagers.

The two girls' appearances were very similar.

From their outward appearance, they bore some resemblance to their anime counterparts.

It was just that they lacked a certain… fierceness?

Perhaps it was because the village had not yet been destroyed.

Ellen, in Su Luo's eyes, possessed a touch of innocence and a somewhat airheaded demeanor.

Karen, however, was as he remembered, expressionless.

Only her beautiful eyes showed a deep curiosity as she looked at him.

Ellen was also observing Su Luo and Tiamat with curious eyes.

Despite looking human, they possessed power beyond their imagination.

Could such a person truly be called human?

Seeing Su Luo looking at the genius of their village, the village chief immediately smiled and introduced, "My lord, this is the strongest Magus in our village—Ellen Mathers."

"Next to her is her sister, Karen Mathers."

As he spoke, the village chief also signaled with his eyes for the Ellen and Karen sisters to greet Su Luo and his companions.

"Greetings to you both, my lords," Ellen and Karen said in unison.

"If you two lords do not mind, please rest in our village for a while. I will have Ellen and Karen entertain you." Seeing that Su Luo had no ill intentions, the village chief felt inclined to befriend him.

After all, it was obvious that Su Luo and his group were powerful.

If Ellen and Karen were to entertain them, and if Su Luo was pleased, it would be a fortunate event if he were willing to mentor the two sisters.

However, the village chief did not hold much hope for this.

While Ellen was a genius, it was only relative to their village.

Compared to Su Luo and his group, Ellen's talent might not be so dazzling.

Moreover, when it came to mysterious knowledge, it was usually passed down through lineage and strict, old-fashioned rules.

It could not be casually given to strangers.

It was enough to show their sincerity and goodwill to Su Luo and his group.

No one would dislike making friends with a strong individual.

"Thank you for your trouble," Su Luo nodded slightly.

Since the Origin Spirits had not even appeared yet.

He might as well interact with Ellen and Karen first, and leave an "anchor point" for him to confirm the time.

When Eliok and Isaac used Spirit Formulas to create Origin Spirits, he would go and intercept them.

Just thinking about it made him imagine how wonderful Isaac's expression would be.

With this thought, a pleased smile appeared on Su Luo's face.

Seeing this, the village chief left with the other villagers.

Leaving the space for Ellen, Su Luo, and the other two.

"My lord, what are your plans next?" Karen asked.

"We'll just wander around the village. Also, just call me Su Luo."

"The one next to me is Tiamat," Su Luo said with a smile.

"Aaaa— (Hello)" Tiamat let out an ethereal voice.

"Tiamat... Isn't that the creation mother goddess from Babylonian mythology? She..." Ellen trailed off.

As the strongest Magus in the village, although her main research was on the Kabbalah system.

She had also dabbled in other occult studies.

Naturally, she knew the name Tiamat.

Even though her appearance was similar to that of a human, save for the two giant horns on her head.

It was still hard for her to imagine that this person was the legendary Mother of Gods!

This made her find it somewhat unbelievable.

"No need to doubt, she is the genuine Mother of Gods, the creation mother goddess of Babylon."

"It's just that she's the creation mother goddess of another world," Su Luo chuckled.

Chapter 65: Ellen and Karen

"I see..." Ellen nodded her head lightly.

Although she found it hard to believe that Tiamat was the true creation mother goddess and that Su Luo and his group were from another world, she felt that with Su Luo's strength, there was no reason for him to deceive a weak Magus like herself.

In the following period, Ellen and Karen led Su Luo and Tiamat to tour and admire the beautiful environment of the village, experiencing the rich rural atmosphere.

As time passed, the distance between Ellen and Su Luo quickly shortened.

Before long, they had become friends who talked about everything.

Karen, on the other hand, maintained a serious expression from beginning to end.

However, Su Luo knew that Karen, who appeared calm and serious on the surface, was actually on the same level as the master of origami.

In such a short time, she was likely already thinking about some R-rated things.

Time slowly passed.

It was lunchtime.

Ellen and Karen took Su Luo and Tiamat outside the village for a barbecue.

On a grill, there were pheasants and rabbits that Ellen and Karen had hunted from the mountains.

Smoke swirled, and the aroma of barbecue filled the air.

Ellen couldn't help but swallow quietly, even though she was already very anxious.

But on the surface, she maintained a calm expression.

While the food wasn't ready yet.

Su Luo took the opportunity to use Clairvoyance to investigate matters concerning Eliok and Isaac.

In an instant, Past Vision activated.

Scenes from Isaac and Eliok's past experiences appeared in his mind.

It also gave him a slightly better understanding of this world.

It was largely similar to the original story.

Eliok and Isaac went to the city to interact with human society.

The first thing they encountered was the various high-tech industries in the city.

Seeing the world outside their village for the first time, they were naturally curious about everything.

Especially in the field of technology.

The first time Isaac saw it, he decided to merge Magecraft with technology to make Magecraft even more powerful.

After years of effort and struggle, Isaac and Eliok founded DEM Company together and had already produced a batch of initial Manifestation Devices.

However, the current Isaac and Eliok had not created Origin Spirits, nor did they have any data related to Origin Spirits.
