Arcane splendor begins with the throne

Chapter 113 Spells and Specialties

"This spell is too difficult to learn."

The little devil stood up from the thick pages of the book, stretched his waist, stretched out his little paws and rubbed his forehead, sat down on a circular magic circle depicted on it, and complained.

As a devil who has acquired an unknown number of years, just reading a few books about "Spell Construction and Rune Knowledge" made him feel uncomfortable, and it was difficult to calm down and read. To, let alone understand the meaning of it.

This made him faintly feel that it was indeed a bit too difficult for a devil to learn spells and become a wizard.

"Is this confusing you, the Archduke of Hell in Avernus?" Brian put down the book in his hand, looked at the demon pet, and said jokingly:

"It's understandable. You Batezu devils rely on supernatural abilities and spell-like spells to cast spells. As for the brain, it is used to study conspiracy and tricks. It is certainly impossible to distract yourself from studying spells."

Seeing the little devil looking at the magic book with a bitter face, Brian was not surprised, because he had expected this situation a long time ago.

This is not to say that this little guy has not met the attribute requirements for the inaugural wizard.After all, his intelligence is as high as 23 points, which makes even his master feel jealous.

The reason for this situation, according to Brian's speculation, is likely to be related to their racial characteristics as Baatezu devils.

The Batezu Devil was born in the evil world of the Nine Layers of Bator Hell.

As a result, almost all devils can clearly see everything in the dark, even the darkness created by advanced dark arts.

And according to the different forms, they also have various keen perception methods.

Because they possess such keen perceptions, their understanding and perception are inevitably tainted by their own natural desire for destruction and despair.

In the eyes of these demons, the most beautiful flowers seem to be on the verge of withering.The innocent child looks like a bag of meat, loosely wrapped around soft, unformed bones.

Even, for the devil, a bottle of perfume is not as comfortable as a smelly cesspit. After all, no matter what kind of perception, they can experience the filth of the latter, not the beauty.

It is this subconscious thought full of destruction and despair, that is, the difference in aesthetics, that makes it difficult for them to study it thoroughly and realize the true meaning of arcane when they try to learn the arcane knowledge of the material world.

This is like the language and writing of goblins. Goblins are inherently chaotic and evil humanoids. This also makes it difficult to find positive energy words such as peace and beauty in the goblin language they use to communicate.

When they learn the common language of the mainland and see this kind of vocabulary, it is difficult to understand the true meaning of it.

This is also the fundamental reason why it is difficult for most chaotic and evil races to form a truly intelligent civilization.

Therefore, it is indeed a bit too embarrassing for a devil whose mind is full of destruction, despair and conspiracy to delve into obscure arcane knowledge, because his super high intelligence attribute is completely focused on the talent of conspiracy and trickery superior.

Otherwise, Brian wouldn't have agreed to the other party's request so readily.

Obviously, he had expected this to happen.

"Is there any targeted solution?" The little devil looked at Brian, blinking his little eyes, showing a pitiful look.

Brian looked at his Demon Pet with a cute look, thinking of his true identity, he couldn't help but feel disgusted.

However, it reminded him of the scene where he learned spells in the game world.

In the early days of the game, there were quite a lot of players who planned to take up the profession of wizard. After all, they were influenced by countless games and novels, so they knew very well why wizards were called: Mages.

However, to the disappointment of all players who yearn for the wizarding profession, this is a near-real immersive game. If you want to become a wizard successfully, you must start from the obscure magic theory at the initial stage.

In the end, just the tedious and tedious practice in the apprenticeship stage, as well as the dangerous spell experiments, directly eliminated more than 95% of wizard players.

Therefore, in order to truly open the door to the truth of arcane arts and lead to the unreachable peak of the arcane path, in addition to one's own talent, hard work and rational thinking are also essential.

"If this is the case, you should stop reading the most basic theoretical knowledge for the time being, and try to connect to the magic net first to see how your magic talent is." Brian thought for a moment, and suggested to the little devil.

Although the little devil's understanding of arcane knowledge is somewhat lacking, he can feel that the opponent's spiritual power is very strong.

Even if the magic net in this world is extremely weak, he doesn't think it will be difficult for the little devil.

"I have sensed the magic net, and successfully established a link." The little devil was silent for a while, and chose to speak truthfully.

Brian heard the words, looked at the other party's understatement, it didn't seem like he was showing off to him at all.He suddenly understood that his magic pet wanted to learn spells, probably not on a temporary basis, but premeditated.

"Then what kind of spells do you plan to master." Brian thought for a moment, met the small eyes of the familiar, and asked.

"School of Illusion." The little devil replied without thinking, obviously this is the choice he had long thought of.

Brian saw through his little thoughts at a glance.

The school of illusion, a school of magic that focuses on using magic to confuse the senses and confuse the consciousness, which is quite in line with the characteristics of the devils who are tricking and abducting.

For example, erinia and succubi, who are naturally proficient in the school of enchantment control, are simply killers of the male compatriots in their player group.

"Your heart is quite big." Brian smiled, and threw him a book, "Let's start with the school of necromancy first, I'm not hitting you, if you can't even learn the spells of this school , your journey as a wizard has come to an end."

This is a book that records the zero-ring trick "Touch of Fatigue" of the Necromancer School.

It was copied from the spell knowledge stored in the arcane fire in his spare time.

After all, with the gradual recovery of the magic net, the wizard profession will definitely rise slowly.

And he also wants to take this opportunity to try to form his own wizarding organization. These basic knowledge of forming a wizarding force are naturally indispensable.

This book explains in detail the spell model of the zero-ring trick "Touch of Fatigue", an overview of negative energy, magic guidance, spell-casting skills, and more.

For a novice, it is completely possible to get started with zero foundation and get a job easily.

Of course, if you want to fully master this spell, the most basic requirement is to memorize all the contents of these more than 20 pages, then understand them all, and finally integrate them.

Brian believed that just this zero-ring trick could give the little devil a headache for a while.

He can also take this opportunity to see how the opponent's magic talent is.

After finishing speaking, he ignored the dissatisfied eyes of the other party, but focused on the book in his hand.

Ever since he awakened to the use of god-like power, he has realized the powerful potential of spells in his hands.

Therefore, he decided to take advantage of the time in the palace to relearn the metamagic and spellcasting feats he had mastered in the game world.

Although he is familiar with these expertise and all the details are deeply imprinted in his mind, but he is a soul traveler, starting from the mystery in the womb, all hardware systems cannot keep up with his software.

This means that he still needs to spend a long time practicing to master it.

Wanting to learn all the spellcasting expertise and supermagic expertise he has mastered in the game world at an extremely fast speed is not as simple as imagined, so he can only learn it step by step honestly.

Fortunately, for these spellcasting specialties, he has an advantage similar to muscle memory, which allows him to get twice the result with half the effort when he learns again.

The first meta-magic feat that Brian intends to master is "Spell Empowerment". After using it, it can increase the power and effect of the spells he casts by about 50%.

If this metamagic feat is combined with his "divine-like spellcasting" and the professional characteristics of the battle mage "spell sharpening" and "sharpening enhancement".

He believed that its power could even be compared to the three-ring spell.

In this way, when he faces the ceiling combat power of the Asno continent like Snake Eyes in the future, he will also have the power to fight or complete a counterattack.

After all, the fastest way to improve your strength is to fight monsters and level up, and the stronger the monsters, the more experience you will gain, especially those individuals whose strength is above extraordinary.

The boring time passed slowly in this gloomy, dim, abandoned tower.

After an unknown amount of time, Brian, who showed a trace of tiredness on his face, seemed to sense something.

So he put down the book in his hand, looked up at the little devil lying on the book tirelessly studying the content of the book, and said: "Hey, I feel someone coming from below, go and see who it is."

Since this ruined elven tower was only his temporary residence, not a place to live for a long time, Brian didn't bother to set up various powerful protective and detection circles.

For outsiders approaching the range of the tower, they can only feel that the outsiders are approaching, but cannot know who the outsiders are.

Of course, if his strength allowed, he could throw a "Eagle Eye" or "Clairvoyance" at random, or even cast a "Mysterious Eye" spell outside, and he would be able to understand it clearly.

"I'm not called 'Hi', I also have a name." The little devil raised his head and looked at Brian dissatisfied.

Obviously, although he bowed to this mortal wizard and became a familiar, he also wanted to be a dignified familiar, not the kind of servant who could be called around casually.

"Okay, then I'll call you Bayer from now on, isn't that okay?" Brian said indifferently as he met the eyes of the Demon Pet.

Because he knew that the other party would never let him call him that.

As a former Duke of Hell, even if the name 'Bayer' is not the real name of the devil, but it is often mentioned by mortals in the material world, his opponents may still use some kind of unimaginable secret technique to sense to his place.

"Forget it, call it whatever you want." The little devil said helplessly, obviously Brian's guess was not wrong.

"It makes sense, there is no one title, sometimes it is a bit troublesome to call it." Brian frowned slightly, thought for a while, and a smile floated on the corner of his mouth: "If that is the case, then I will give you a new one." name."

"Hmm... I'll call you... the little evil mage, Vega?" Brian looked at him and thought of a pretty good name.

"..."

The little devil met Brian's weird eyes. He could clearly feel that the name was very common, just a title, but he felt something was wrong.

The little devil who still can't figure it out after thinking for a long time can only think that he is just thinking too much unilaterally.

Finally, under the gesture of Brian's eyes, it turned into a crow and flew out of the window.

After a while, the little devil's transformed 'crow' flew back again and landed in front of Brian's desk.

"Brian, I can't tell, but you are so pretty." The little devil lowered his head and combed his feathers and said, "It's Princess Corni who's here to find you."

Princess Corney?
Brian was stunned, and suddenly remembered that since the last time he said goodbye to the princess, he had been staying in the tower for his own magic research, and never left for half a step.

This made him feel a little guilty. After all, he could feel that the princess was sincere to him, and he also secretly promised in his heart that he would treat her sincerely.

Who would have thought that for the sake of his own magic research, he would turn around and forget about it completely, so that the other party came directly to him.

The two who have just entered their first love have not yet passed their honeymoon period, and they have directly entered the cooling-off period. If they were placed in the real world, they would be a perfect template for a scumbag.

"Are you going in by yourself, or shall I send you in?" Brian got up from his chair and looked at the crow in front of him.

Princess Kearni came to him, so he naturally couldn't let the little devil, the culprit, appear in front of her, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

Moreover, the other party also has the blood of the heavens, and has a strong perception of these purely evil creatures.

The best way right now is to put it in the magic pet's pocket.

"Tsk tsk tsk... are you going to see your beautiful little bird like this?" The little devil didn't answer Brian's question, but instead looked him up and down intentionally, smacking his lips playfully.

"Is there any problem?" Brian didn't realize what the other party wanted to express for a moment.

"I think what you need most now is a mirror." The little devil suddenly became very serious, and said in a preaching tone:
"From your little bird looking for you, it can be seen that she should care about you, but this is not the reason for you to be sloppy all day long. Dear little master, if you have been so careless about your appearance , after a long time, it will definitely be disgusted by people."

"You're not going in, are you? Then I'll take you in personally." Brian looked at the little devil with a hostile expression, and said coldly.

"Wait a minute, I'd better go in by myself, and I won't bother you to do it yourself."

The little devil's eyes narrowed, and he turned into a puff of smoke in mid-air, returning to his original appearance.

Then he picked up the book explaining the zero-ring trick "Touch of Fatigue" on the table, and flew into his pocket without hesitation.

Seeing the disappearing familiar, Brian flashed his fingertips, and a mirror appeared in front of him.
