Can we please not talk about this? It's making me a little tempted too.

Ming Ge remained silent, feeling annoyed by her own perversion and regretting turning Meitellia into this state.

"Okay, okay, I won't bother you anymore, alright?"

Meitellia pouted.

Hearing this, Ming Ge finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Now comes the important part."

Ming Ge looked at the Raiden Shogun before her and became serious.

Soul matter is not only a magical effect, but also a container.

Ming Ge will next assign properties to the doll.

This kind of bestowal of properties is similar to forging a magic sword or creating a magic item.

Ultimately, even if it takes on a human form, it is still just an inanimate object.

Ming Ge's method was to create dolls as 'magical tools'.

"Here we go."

Ming Ge chased Meitellia away under her resentful gaze, creating a defensive barrier to prevent any accidents, and then took Raiden Shogun's hand.

The magic caused a phenomenon, and the internal structure of Raiden Shogun's body also began to change.

There are three ways to imbue weapons with properties: magical items, cursed items, and magical swords.

Magical items and spell items are equipment that can only be created by people who possess the ability to develop "mysticism." The former are called magicians (mage), and the latter are called spellcasters (hexer).

Magical items require magical energy to activate and will not break.

Cursed weapons are similar to enchantments; they are Cursed Armament that inflict negative status effects when struck by a weapon.

Magic swords are equipment that can only be crafted by those who possess the ability to "forge," and those who can do this are called blacksmiths.

It only requires consuming magic power, which acts as an 'igniter,' to unleash powerful energy, but at the cost of consuming the magic sword itself, much like a magic scroll with a limited number of uses.

Although Ming Ge did not receive Divine Blessing, he already understood the essence of "developing abilities" and would be able to complete this step after practice.

This is not surprising, because both mithril and orogen are alloys created by humans before the Divine Blessing appeared.

At that time, without Divine Blessing, there was naturally no possibility of ability or development, yet it was still created by humankind.

In addition, the future Amid will be able to construct magic circles without the need for "magic" as a developmental ability. This means that developmental ability is not necessary, but rather a passive, acquired quality, similar to magic.

The innate represents the factors inherent in one's birth, while the acquired represents the abilities extended by Divine Blessing.

Only after the innate can the acquired be formed. Although the acquired nature of this world is stronger than the innate nature, it will not deviate from this law.

"Conversion complete."

He controlled the Raiden Shogun, his body crackling with lightning.

The Ming Ge swung his palms together, piercing through her body without leaving a single mark.

This is elementalization!

Raiden Shogun's basic structure is soul matter, and its nature is lightning; it can be said to be the embodiment of lightning.

If elves are a magical race close to nature, and fairy spirits are elemental life forms like nymphs, spirits, and demon spirits, then the current Raiden Shogun is a fantasy species.

"Is it finished?"

Meitellia tapped on the defensive barrier, her cheeks puffed out in dissatisfaction.

With a thought, Ming Ge released the barrier and poked Meitellia's cheek with his index finger.

A cute "poof" sound rang out, Meitellia's mouth let out a leak.

"This is just in case."

Looking at Meitellia's expression, Ming Ge shrugged and said, "Although creating a puppet doesn't use much magic, the explosive power is still considerable. It wouldn't be good if you got hurt."

Dolls also have levels. With Ming Ge's magical power, without using the Light of the Soul, he can only unleash power at most around Iv3 to Iv4.

With a defensive barrier in place, plus Ming Ge's quick thinking, there shouldn't be any major problems.

Although the possibility of an accident is low, it is not entirely impossible, so Ming Ge took some precautions.

Fortunately, it was a success; Ming Ge's magic wasn't wasted.

"Oh, I see. Then I forgive you."

Meitellia wasn't angry to begin with, but her attention was quickly drawn to Raiden Shogun. She walked up to Raiden Shogun, gently stroking his cheek, and said, "It's truly unbelievable, this child..."

It's just a doll.

"For now, it's just a doll."

Ming Ge corrected him, "Once I advance further in the realm of the soul, I will be able to create true life."

"Creating life... how amazing, like a god."

Meitellia exclaimed.

In reality, not all gods can reach the realm of creation.

Only a god whose divine role is "creation" can do this.

Ming Ge had speculated about the Dungeon when he was on Earth, wondering if it was a manifestation of some 'god'.

One thing is certain: Dungeon are things on par with the gods.

"By the way, if Raiden Shogun really lives, what race would he be?"

Meitellia, as if struck by a sudden thought, joked, "We can't really define Raiden Shogun as a god, can we? That would anger the gods."

"Indeed, Raiden Shogun is still very weak."

Ming Ge said thoughtfully, "How about calling it Fairy...?"

"A fairy, very good."

Meitellia nodded, then asked curiously, "Is there any difference between fairies and celestials?"
