I Definitely Didn't Want to Get Revenge on Shadow (5K)
The riotous magic intensified, overflowing into Psions that nearly destroyed everything.
"Aaaaaaah--"
Such screams could even be heard coming from inside.
"Could it be that I'm doing something wrong? No, it must be a problem with the amount of filler, right?"
Mahiro, he increased the valve again, forcibly raising the threshold of the meat's resistance to magic.
He thought that as long as the threshold was raised, the magic would naturally not get out of control and would naturally return to its original state.
To complete this hypothesis, he even took out a strengthening potion infused with Tyrant's evolutionary genes and poured it into the potion along with magic.
"Aaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!"
The screams lasted for an unknown amount of time before the uncontrolled magic finally disappeared.
The moment they gained complete control, the chunk of flesh vanished, replaced by a blonde, loli-like elf who perfectly matched the description given by the intelligence agent.
Her shimmering, golden hair flowed gracefully, like a blooming lily, slowly cascading down as she fell.
However, just as she was about to land, she was Mahiro in Mahiro's arms and skillfully wrapped in a blanket.
The Snow Woman behind him was blinking her small eyes, looking completely bewildered at the scene.
What exactly did she see?
All she knew was that her master squatted in front of the piece of meat, reaching out to pour magic into it. As the meat swelled, she didn't know what her master took out and stabbed inside.
A moment later, the chunk of meat vanished, replaced by a beautiful elven girl?!
Chapter 186 I Absolutely Did Not Intend to Take Revenge on Shadow (5K)
The moment the elf girl recovered, I felt a strange sense of joy, like drawing a gacha pull, as if I had drawn an SSR character in one go.
Yes, her hair is also golden, which fits the characteristics of the Golden Legend.
However, the elven girl soon awoke from his arms.
"Hmm..."
Her eyelids trembled, and her slowly opened sea-blue eyes were somewhat hazy. Having returned to human form, she spoke for the first time.
"... It's so warm, Dad..."
"???"
Is it going to be this exciting right from the start?
Mahiro was slightly startled. He reached out and touched the girl's forehead, asking, "Do you have a fever? Or are you still half asleep? Girl, I'm not your father."
He doesn't even have any children, yet he's so young and handsome!
Where did this child come from!
Whether it was a misperception or not, the Snow Woman behind him, who had been nervously clutching her folding fan, seemed to breathe a slight sigh of relief.
Is it really necessary to get so worked up?
"Ah..."
The girl seemed to come to her senses and realized that she had not only said the wrong thing, but was also lying in the arms of a stranger. She immediately sat up from his embrace and moved back a little.
But then, she seemed to realize that something was wrong.
"My... my body... really...?!"
She examined her arms, legs, and entire body repeatedly.
A look of surprise and delight flashed in his eyes.
She remembered being captured by the slave team due to a sudden physical condition, and then her body began to rot and swell in the cage until she lost consciousness.
But to my surprise, when I woke up, my body had recovered!
"Don't worry, your magic out of control situation will not happen again."
"Magic... out of control?"
The girl's voice was soft and ethereal, but her expression was somewhat blank, as if she didn't understand what it meant at all.
"Well... to put it simply, it was a curse, a curse from within one's bloodline, but it has now been completely resolved."
This method is a bit crude...
If the other party hadn't been an elf, whose vitality is far stronger than that of a human, they probably would have been burst apart by the immense magical power he poured into them long ago.
"Did you... save me? And what is this curse?"
"There are quite a few problems."
Mahiro from squatting to sitting down on the ground, even patting the straw-covered ground to indicate that she should sit down too.
"First of all, it's true that I saved you. Secondly, this so-called curse was actually passed down from your ancestors, those heroes."
"..."
The girl opened her mouth slightly, blinked, and looked at him with an incredulous expression.
Even the Snow Woman is the same.
This was the first time she had ever heard of such a thing.
"Well, it's normal to be surprised."
After all, even he himself was surprised at the time.
The Shadow, or rather Cid Cagaino, is something that was casually made up and haphazardly combined with a fairy tale book, and it turns out to be true.
For example, the curse on Diabolos and the descendants of the three heroes who defeated her is a symptom known as Demonic Possession.
It was even a coincidence that they guessed exactly what the cult wanted.
Could it be that this guy's cheat code as a transmigrator is actually EX-level luck?
If it weren't for the fact that an author was endorsing him, one might mistakenly believe that all of this was actually orchestrated by Shadow behind the scenes.
Under the surprised gazes of the two children, Mahiro explained the Shadow's explanation to them.
Initially, the heroes who fought against the Diabolos were all women, of three races: humans, elves, and orcs. When the demon was dying, he placed Curse of Diabolos on them, and this curse still flows in their blood to this day.
That is, the truth behind the magic going out of control and turning into rotting flesh.
Even for humans, who have the shortest lifespan and the fastest reproduction rate, the curse, even if it has become diluted, still has the potential to erupt.
"In short, you are a direct descendant of the legendary elven hero, one of the three heroes."
"But isn't this a fairy tale?" the elf girl couldn't help but ask.
"Well, who says that real history can't be a fairy tale? The reason it's a fairy tale is because it has a prototype story, like my servant, the Snow Woman, who can prove it."
"Yes."
The Snow Woman closed her eyes slightly and recalled, "What my master said is true; the Three Heroes did indeed exist. After the orc warrior, the greatest hero Shiva, fell, our orc kingdom fell into war and fell apart."
The reason why powerful tribes clash and repeatedly trigger wars is because of this.
It is all for the sake of vying for the throne left behind by the heroes of the past, so weak tribes like the Snow Woman's can only be manipulated and struggle to survive in the cracks.
At that moment, Mahiro took over the conversation.
"However, in subsequent history, it was gradually distorted... the descendants of the heroes were slandered as Demonic Possession, despicable beings."
"Who... would do something so outrageous?!"
The girl's emotions surged instantly, and her sea-blue eyes trembled slightly.
"Please tell me, even if it means being in danger, it doesn't matter!"
She desperately wanted an answer.
But it wasn't just her; even the Snow Woman was curious.
Legends of Demonic Possession circulate among the fox spirits, but none have ever actually been seen.
"Actually, it's not that dangerous or anything. They're just a bunch of villains who want to resurrect the former Diabolos and use her demon blood."
The group called themselves the "Diabolos Cult."
Jingle--
The moment he mentioned the word "Order," the Snow Woman gripped her folding fan tightly again, and the bell hanging on the pendant rang crisply.
Her body was trembling slightly.
The Diabolos Cult...
She was very familiar with this name; Yue Dan had killed her mother and betrayed her in order to join this cult!
Little did I know there was an even bigger conspiracy behind it all!
"So, young girl, are you willing to lurk in the shadows, and when the time is right, wield your blade of judgment against these sinners and bring them to justice?"
"Sanctions... the Order?"
"That's right, although that wasn't my main purpose, it was just something I did incidentally."
"From the day I was afflicted by disease... no, by the curse, I lost everything."
Now, you saved my life and gave me everything once again.
So, if this is what you desire, then I would gladly give my life. I will become the deadly dagger in your hand, bringing death upon those sinners!
The girl stared straight at him with her blue eyes, without blinking for even a moment.
She was serious.
Even on that youthful yet beautiful face, a deep sense of awareness and determination was revealed.
They're so easy to fool...
Although what he said wasn't a lie, but the truth.
Ever since he learned where this world was, he had some ideas in his mind, such as obtaining the so-called Diablos's blood, which he could use to further upgrade his enhancement potion.
While you're at it, you can also sneak a few artifacts or something.
"Well then, young lady, since you've chosen to accept it, then accept this power as well."
Mahiro stretched out a hand towards the elf girl and slowly opened it. A black power flowed continuously in his hand, like a flame.
This is a slime he copied from Shadow and recreated using alchemy.
He also added some other ingredients to it.
For example, the curse poison of Murasame [One-Hit Kill], the powerful defense of armor-type Imperial Arms, the flight and attack performance of [Flying Forever - Mostima], the potential of [Superpower Burst - Balzac], plus a few hundred million bits of Orichalcum.
Simply put, it's an all-around Imperial Arm created using slimes as a base.
"Yes!"
Without the slightest hesitation, the elven girl took his hand and placed it over the dark power.
In an instant, the flames seemed to come alive, rapidly spreading throughout the girl's entire body.
She offered no resistance; instead, she gently closed her eyes, letting the flames dance across her body.
Ultimately, it transformed into a jet-black armor covering her flat, delicate body, adorned with golden edges.
"Thank you for your kindness!"
"Master, I can help too! I'm willing to live my life for you!"
It's unclear whether it was because of the fairy girl's statement, or perhaps because the new power she received from Mahiro stimulated the Snow Woman, but she immediately followed suit and expressed her opinion as well.
"Alright, aren't you still seeking revenge on that fiancé? So don't get involved. Besides, you have other tasks to complete."
Mahiro stroked the Snow Woman's short, flowing hair as a gesture of comfort.
After all, how could Lawless City be complete without this fox-girl queen?
"Waaah... Yue Dan... that man is no longer my fiancé."
