Danmaku, my skills refresh weekly.

"The magic we acquire is interest, it's our personal reality. It's about maintaining an interest in something, generating feelings of identification, hatred, longing, sorrow, worship, vows, and desires. The trigger is within ourselves, and it's all revealed under the grace of God."

Turn the page...

As the magical theories within were explained in a simple and easy-to-understand way, a feeling of drowsiness gradually crept into my mind.

"As expected...it worked!"

Charles's lips curled slightly, then he collapsed to the ground with a thud, immersing himself in the sea of ​​words.

In a pale world, a painting appears. On the painting is a human face outlined in ink wash.

Turn the page.

"That was me... the ordinary me of the past, the me who once dominated the distillery, the me who now struggles to survive... another me."

Turn the page.

The human face turned into a chaotic mass, as if it had completely merged and kneaded its past and present lives to form a completely new individual.

"Then, let's get started."

I heard my voice in my ear.

"What is magic to me?"

Magic is a miracle, the unknown, and an anomaly that even the gods cannot fathom.

"What is magic to me?"

It is the cornerstone for realizing all ambitions!

It is a power that no human being can achieve through known means.

It's a cheat code, a miracle that allowed me to survive, to live freely, and to change my destiny.

Turn the page.

"What is magic to me?"

thing?

Magic has no concrete form.

If I had to put it into words, magic is a miracle.

But if miracles had a color, it would be orange!

"What do you desire from magic?"

The unknown below!

A miracle is a miracle precisely because it is elusive and unpredictable.

If I had to put it into words, it would be chaos. The birth of the world, the divergence of parallel worlds, the materialization of the soul, the unfathomable secrets, and the elusive nature of time.

"Aren't you being too greedy?"

There's nothing we can do about it; that's just who we are.

The question is: should time travelers be arrogant?

A blurry face grinned arrogantly:

"Indeed! Human dreams never end!"

Then, Ciel lost consciousness.

……

In the endless chaos, Xia Er completely merged all the memories of his past and present lives. After an unknown amount of time, he slowly awoke.

"Oh no, what time is it now?"

In the sealed room, time passed imperceptibly, but according to the usual awakening process of a magic book, he had slept for at least one night!

"No, we must leave before Fels notices anything amiss!"

Charles was unsure if Granny Reno and Fels were connected, so he had to evacuate as soon as possible. His original plan was to take the grimoire and other items back to a safe environment before attempting anything further, but now the plan had changed…

Without time to take anything else, Ciel took the most conspicuous item from the shelf full of magical artifacts: the Reversal Spirit Veil.

That is the most frequently used item in all the storylines. Its effect is the same as the "Hades Helmet" of the "Omnipotent One," which makes the wearer 'invisible'.

Unlike the Hades helmet's forced invisibility, this suit can be used depending on whether it's worn face up or face down.

Of course, taking what you can get and retreating are not mutually exclusive. With a few "unknown" magical items that he felt he might need, Ciel pushed open the door to the secret room.

Granny Renault was still sitting at the counter, but compared to the gloomy night of the previous night, the bright sunlight that shone into the somber witch's house swept away some of the gloom.

Seeing Charles emerge, Grandma Renault asked kindly, "Well, did you find the answer?"

"Hmm...we've got a lead."

Reno arrived at the secret chamber and glanced at the items inside. She found that only the old magic book was missing; not many other items had been taken.

The gate was sealed off.

"This is enough?"

"Ah."

"That's good. If there's anything else I can help you with, just let me know. I still have some influence in Orario." Reno said, his hands behind his back, a strange yet benevolent smile tugging at his hooked nose.

Charles hesitated for a moment: "There is indeed a small matter. Do you have any 'Renewal Medicine' here?"

"An elixir of life? Have you awakened some kind of magic? For things like this, you just need to consult a god..."

"Gods are not to be trusted."

Charles interrupted Granny Renault's rambling.

After she finished speaking, a look of relief appeared on the mother-in-law's face: "That's right. I do have that kind of thing here. It's considered a contraband, and it's not usually sold."

as predicted.

A glint flashed in Charles's eyes.

In Orario, most of the items with impressive names are the work of "Sage". Right now, "Omnipotent" has only just begun to emerge, and it is not yet time for them to share half the world.

Russian qing.

With a piece of parchment in his hand, Ciel draped himself in the Reversed Spirit Veil and disappeared from the entrance of the Witch's Hideout shop.

The parchment was covered with replicas of sacred text.

Chapter 21 Please allow me to make excuses

"The Ring of Miracles?"

Having worked in the simple and honest city of Mika in my previous life for several years, I am naturally familiar with this "sacred script" that is basically a replica of the Inatsume script.

After a quick read, Ciel used the gun-shaped ignition gadget he had taken to set the parchment ablaze. The paper carbonized and burned until it turned to ashes.

Ciel did not have excessive expectations for the magic he awakened, because no matter what magic he awakened, it would be forcibly converted by the "Second Dimension Pandora".

"Unexpectedly, it still brought me a pleasant surprise."

At least, in the normal state without refreshing the panel, it has a way to protect itself.

"Being able to use all magic is impressive, but this randomness..."

I don't want to plan to drop an atomic bomb, only to reach into my pocket and pull out a lighter. Or, when I'm mentally exhausted, I might try to conjure a fireball, only to have it explode into a magical explosion.

This world doesn't have a warning about insufficient mana; mental exhaustion simply results in unconsciousness.

Of course, in a critical moment, it's also possible to suddenly unleash a heroic strike that lays the foundation for victory; perhaps that's the allure of miracles.

"I'm more interested in this additional status effect than this magic that's number one in terms of unpredictability!"

In "Second Dimension Pandora," luck plays an absolutely dominant role in skill acquisition.

"Based on my experience from these two skill draws, the probability of drawing a powerful skill is far lower than that of a low-level, useless skill. Or is there a level restriction? Like level four or level six?"

"The higher your luck, the lower the probability of drawing a useless skill, and the easier it is to obtain a powerful skill."

The next ability refresh will be in six days. For now, the "Miracle Ring" can be a tool for me to train my magic, or a last resort when I encounter insurmountable difficulties.

"But what kind of E is this Luck E? E, FGHI? This fifth level is quite high. If it's a Lancer's E... emmm."

……

In a deserted dead end, Sharl folded the "Reversed Spirit Veil" he was wearing and put it into the leather adventurer's pouch he had taken from the Fels warehouse.
