American Comics: Borrowed Magic By Skill, Why Should I Return It?

Chapter 5: Urgent Question, What to Do When Summoning a Demon at Kamar-Taj and Getting Caught?

In the room.

In the moment Nashtir was expelled.

Chu Xiu immediately heard a system prompt in his mind.

[Ding!]

[Achievement Unlocked: First Demon Expulsion!]

[Congratulations on receiving the achievement reward: Holy Soul!]

(Entry 1: Your soul is pure and flawless, immune to corruption or destruction by any dark forces.)

(Entry 2: Possesses great temptation for any demon in need of a soul.)

"Me?"

"Pure and flawless?"

After listening to the system's introduction, Chu Xiu quickly opened his brain's browsing history.

After confirming that the pile of hellish jokes and dark thoughts had not disappeared, he finally relaxed.

Not bad.

He was still that 'upright' young man.

"Possesses great temptation for any demon in need of a soul?"

Upon seeing this entry, Chu Xiu's pure and flawless self suddenly brightened.

There probably wouldn't be any demon who would refuse a loan application from a holy soul, right?

Yes!

This achievement reward is great!

I really like it!

Returning his consciousness to reality, Chu Xiu began to examine his biggest gain from this time - the power of the demon.

After purification, this power had become easily controllable.

With a thought, Chu Xiu's palm immediately burst into a ball of scorching hellfire.

Mastering the power of the demon, converting it into hellfire was like an instinct.

"The most basic energy conversion."

Retracting the hellfire, Chu Xiu prepared to increase the difficulty.

He took out the Sling Ring.

His other hand began to draw a circle.

Boom!

Only the sound of flames bursting was heard.

A flame portal composed of hellfire appeared out of thin air!

"Wow, it really works!"

Chu Xiu's face was flushed by the firelight.

He didn't expect that he could successfully convert the energy used for teleportation magic into the power of the demon.

"Most spells are just a framework."

"Any energy can be used to make the spell effective."

"Definitely, there are a few spells that are not in this category and require corresponding energy."

Just as Chu Xiu was about to step into the flame portal to see where he would be transported to, a calm voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Gudong~

Chu Xiu froze in his tracks.

The foot he had just lifted slowly came back down.

"Ancient One?"

That's right.

The person who came was indeed the Ancient One!

Looking at the blazing flame portal, the Ancient One's expression was indifferent and silent.

Chu Xiu, on the other hand, felt a bit uneasy in his heart.

Urgent question!

What to do when summoning a demon at Kamar-Taj and getting caught on the spot?

"You possess the power of the demon."

As soon as the Ancient One spoke, Chu Xiu became uneasy. Was this bald guy going to kill him to keep him quiet?

Please no.

I only have a little bit of the power of the demon.

You, on the other hand, have Dormammu's dark power.

"Don't be nervous, I won't harm you."

The Ancient One spoke again.

Chu Xiu was startled. The movie didn't mention that this bald guy could read minds, did it!?

"Don't overthink it, I can't read minds."

Snap!

Chu Xiu felt that he was being suppressed by this bald guy. He quickly restrained his thoughts and stopped thinking about anything.

You're the boss, whatever you say goes~

"..."

Looking at Chu Xiu's lazy appearance, the Ancient One felt a headache coming on.

He had only been away from the real dimension for a short while, and this kid was already causing trouble.

"Follow me."

The Ancient One sighed.

Then he opened a portal and walked in.

Chu Xiu, who had already decided to be lazy, didn't waste any words and followed him directly.

A flash of light.

Chu Xiu, who had passed through the portal, arrived at the peak of a snowy mountain.

The howling cold wind around, mixed with ice crystals, made the skin ache.

The instinctive demonic power to protect the master generated a layer of flame barrier, blocking the cold wind around Chu Xiu.

"If I hadn't seen what you looked like before, I might have thought you were a natural demon from hell."

"Your control over demonic power is truly admirable."

Ancient One turned around and glanced at the flame barrier on Chu Xiu's body, praising.

"Hehe."

Chu Xiu smiled.

Choosing to continue to be a loser.

"..."

Seeing this, Ancient One shook his head slightly.

"This is Mount Makalu, the fifth highest peak in the world, located in the Himalayas."

"Compared to Mount Everest, it is more desolate and rarely visited by people."

Ancient One pointed to the snow mountain beneath his feet and introduced.

Chu Xiu nodded silently.

Hmm.

It's a good place to keep secrets.

"In the future, you can summon demons here."

"Hmm."

"Ah!?"

Chu Xiu thought he had misheard.

"There are rarely any people here, so even if something goes wrong, it won't have a big impact."

Ancient One added.

Now Chu Xiu was sure that Ancient One not only didn't investigate his summoning of demons, but also found a secluded place for him to specifically summon demons.

"Why?"

Chu Xiu instinctively asked.

But Ancient One shook his head.

"I went to the Supreme Dimension for your sake."

"The Supreme Dimension?"

Chu Xiu was a little confused.

"Haven't you finished reading 'Fundamentals of Magic'?"

"No."

"..."

Ancient One fell silent for a moment and said, "The Supreme Dimension is the residence of the Veshan Emperor."

Damn!

The ultimate powerhouse!

"The Veshan Emperor revealed some information about you to me."

"But some of it, even the almighty beings cannot predict."

Because the Time Gem cannot see Chu Xiu's past and future, this situation has never happened before.

So Ancient One specifically went to the Supreme Dimension.

However, when talking about Chu Xiu, the great and all-powerful Trinity seemed to reveal a hint of fear.

After leaving the Supreme Dimension.

Ancient One made a decision.

"I don't know how far you will grow in the future."

"But for now, I don't mind providing you with a little help."

Saying that, Ancient One handed a piece of parchment to Chu Xiu.

This parchment looked like it had at least a thousand years of history and was barely preserved by magic.

Chu Xiu didn't recognize any of the characters on it.

They were all pictographic symbols.

"It's called Quagss."

"It used to be..."

Ancient One paused, as if there was an existence that couldn't even be mentioned by name.

"It used to be a servant of some evil existence, and also a dimensional lord."

"As far as I know, it is now sealed somewhere."

"If you plan to summon it..."

"Be extremely careful!"

Ancient One's meaning was clear.

Dealing with a sealed dimensional lord was already the limit of what she could do for Chu Xiu.

Because even if she was a little more powerful, she might not be able to defeat it.

"Oh, and this."

Then, Ancient One handed a ancient book to Chu Xiu.

"This book records some demons from different dimensions."

"Although they are not dimensional lords, their strength is equally formidable."

...

"Thank you..."

Looking at the ancient book and parchment in his hand, Chu Xiu was deeply moved.

For a moment, he even felt a sense of familiarity with the bald head in front of him.

Damn it, if you were a few thousand years younger and had more hair, I would probably fall in love with you~

"No need to thank me."

Just as Chu Xiu was moved.

Ancient One's next words broke the atmosphere.

"Now, you can leave Kamar-Taj."

Crack!

Moved too early!

In the end, he was kicked out because of the "illegal summoning crime".
