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

Chapter 7 Demon Form! ?

The next day.

Training square.

Mo Du, with a bandage wrapped around his arm, led Chu Xiu to a machine similar to a force gauge while speaking.

"I looked up some records about demonic power last night."

"In fact...compared to casting magic, demonic power is better at tempering the body."

Chu Xiu listened silently.

He was not sure why Mo Du would become a villain in the future.

But at least for now, Mo Du was quite serious about teaching magic.

Look at this.

He even stayed up all night to research.

"Your physical fitness must have surpassed that of an ordinary person. As for how much, we'll have to test to find out."

Mo Du pointed to the force gauge.

"We'll start with testing your strength, then speed, endurance, and ability to withstand attacks."

When it came to the ability to withstand attacks.

Chu Xiu noticed a pile of weapons on a shelf next to him.

There were knives, guns, batons, and even a Glock 9mm pistol.

Huh!?

Why does Kamar-Taj have these things?

Chu Xiu was stunned for a moment.

Then he suddenly realized that Mo Du's research last night was not just about looking up information.

This kid's thoughts are not right!

"Cough cough."

"Let's start the test."

Mo Du coughed lightly.

"This machine is infused with magic. You can test with confidence, it won't be damaged."

Seeing this, Chu Xiu didn't say much either. He walked forward, pulled his right fist back like a full bow, and tightened his muscles.

Then he threw a punch.

Boom!

The force gauge shook violently.

The value on it jumped crazily and finally settled at over 6500 pounds!

That's close to 3 tons!

"..."

Seeing this number, Mo Du's eyelid twitched.

During his peak, Tyson could throw a punch with 850 pounds of force. Chu Xiu's punch was almost 7.5 times that.

"Um, not bad."

After Mo Du finished speaking, his gaze fell directly on the weapons rack beside him.

"Next is the test of withstanding attacks."

"?"

Are we not going to do the tests for speed and endurance?

Chu Xiu had a black line on his forehead. This guy must still be holding a grudge about yesterday's punch.

"I'll do it myself."

Looking at Mo Du, who was eager to try, Chu Xiu decisively snatched the baton from his hand.

After a few tests, the spikes on the baton were almost worn down.

Chu Xiu didn't cause any actual harm to himself either.

"Well..."

"It seems that cold weapons without magic infusion can't harm you."

Mo Du concluded on the side.

At the same time, his gaze fell on the Glock pistol beside him.

"Alright, stop hinting."

Chu Xiu rolled his eyes.

He picked up the Glock pistol without a good mood.

To be honest, this was the first time Chu Xiu had held a real firearm in his life. The cold feeling in his palm immediately gave him a unique sensation.

Which boy could resist a Glock 9mm pistol?

Bang!

A gunshot.

Nothing happened.

Chu Xiu opened his palm, and a dented copper bullet slowly fell.

"..."

"Give me the gun. I have to return it tonight."

Mo Du couldn't hold it in anymore when he saw this scene.

Damn it!

It's definitely you who brought this, kid!

Chu Xiu definitely couldn't go back, so he decisively put the Glock into his pocket.

"Are we going to test speed and endurance next?"

"No need."

Mo Du shook his head.

"With your current physical fitness, you are already on par with most hell demons."

"Except for the appearance, you are no different from them, definitely, I mean in terms of strength."

"For more specific details, you can refer to this book."

Mo Du handed over an ancient book.

"This book records some ways in which hell demons use their own power."

"You can take a look."

Chu Xiu took the book.

Flipping through it, it indeed recorded many ways to utilize demonic power.

Among them, the simplest was to transform demonic power into hellfire, a skill that every demon possessed.

There were also more advanced techniques, such as using demonic power to manipulate minds or repair damaged limbs.

And then, there was the more difficult one.

Using demonic power to change one's physical form!

"Change physical form?"

Chu Xiu became interested.

Quickly following the instructions in the book, he gathered all of his demonic power in one place.

Chu Xiu chose his right arm.

Stab!

In an instant, Chu Xiu's arm burst through the sleeve and simultaneously transformed its shape.

It became thicker, with claws growing on his hand, and the entire arm was covered in a layer of red and black scales.

Like the claw of an evil dragon!

Its size was severely disproportionate to Chu Xiu's body!

It had a strong visual impact!

Chu Xiu lightly waved his arm.

The nearby weapon rack instantly shattered into pieces!

Even the weapons placed on it were cut into fragments, as if slicing through tofu, effortlessly!

"Wait! Isn't this Devil Trigger?"

Chu Xiu finally remembered what this thing resembled.

That's right!

It was Devil Trigger, Dante's demonic form in the game Devil May Cry!

Thinking of this, Chu Xiu quickly focused his mind and transferred the demonic power from his arm to his back.

In an instant.

His arm returned to its original appearance.

But a pair of blood-red flesh wings pierced through his clothes and unfolded from Chu Xiu's back!

With a slight shake!

Chu Xiu soared into the air, rising to half the height!

"..."

"This guy really isn't a hell demon?"

Watching this scene, Mo Du once again fell into doubt.

If it weren't for his trust and respect for the Ancient One, Mo Du would even want to use the 'Soul-Captivating Palm' to see if Chu Xiu was truly human.

"Unfortunately, the demonic power is not enough, so I can't fully transform into a devil."

After testing for a while, Chu Xiu landed back on the ground, feeling somewhat unsatisfied.

The demonic power he 'borrowed' from Nastier... was not enough.

He couldn't completely transform into a devil like Dante in the game.

"In the end, it's still too little."

Humans are greedy.

Having tasted the sweetness, Chu Xiu couldn't wait to summon the next guest!

................

After finishing a day of studying magic.

Chu Xiu returned to his room and immediately took out the ancient book given by the Ancient One, which recorded information about dimensional demons.

That's right!

He planned to do it all at once!
