The Forbidden Magic Laws of a Fallen Princess

Although she was quite reluctant, as long as I brought up this issue, she would obediently cooperate.

Honestly, the only thing that has helped me relieve boredom in the past six months has been physical contact with Lila.

Seeing Lila's blushing face and shy expression every day really excites me.

Because this is my revenge for saving her life.

Of course, Elena couldn't escape either. Basically, for the past six months, Elena has been by my side like a well-behaved kitten.

Unfortunately, she was a noble princess and the heir to the Kingdom of Allen.

So I can't really touch her... Sigh, that's a real shame. But I've completely "trained" her to be my person, so of course she can be used by me in the future.

Wait, could this be the legendary Puppet Queen...?

Sigh, never mind, I won't think about it too much. In other words, I've had a very happy and fulfilling six months.

These past six months have always passed so quickly. Soon, Ms. Betty saw that my injury had fully recovered and was completely healed.

This allows me to start using magic. Honestly, not being able to use magic these past few days has been so stifling for me. From today onwards, I can begin removing the impurities from my second magic spell, which is the impurity of lightning attribute.

Chapter 44 The Beginning of the Summoning Ritual (Part 1)

Indeed, humans become weaker and weaker once they stop trying.

After being unable to cast spells for half a year, the magical power within me is indeed not as strong as before.

At this time, whenever I had free time, I would continuously gather the power of lightning and expel any impurities from it.

However, my feeling is that... after trying to expel the lightning for a long time, until I started to feel a bit out of breath, it seems that only about 1% of the impurities have been cleared.

Does this mean that I can easily banish fire magic, but lightning magic is actually much more difficult than fire magic?

And it seems that there aren't many books that can purify lightning magic, which left me completely dumbfounded.

Well, there's still plenty of time. If I can complete 1% to 2% a day, which means it will take at most three months, I should be able to completely purify the lightning magic.

Anyway, if I just purify a little bit every day, I should be able to succeed eventually.

Just as I was engrossed in figuring out how to quickly dispel lightning magic, Ms. Kaphni suddenly informed us after class that we would need a whole day after tomorrow's class meeting to conduct a summoning ritual for all second-year students.

A summoning ritual, as the name suggests, involves using a magic circle to summon a familiar that belongs only to oneself and to sign a contract.

The next day arrived quickly, and during the class meeting, Ms. Kaphni was explaining the details of the summoning ritual.

However, I am, of course, very familiar with this kind of summoning familiars and stuff.

Because I love anime and games, I have done a lot of research on familiars.

For example, the familiars that can be summoned by certain Zero Familiars or certain Elf Realms are incredibly diverse.

Unfortunately, it's impossible to summon a race like elves in this world, which is somewhat illogical.

Because the elven race disappeared thousands of years ago, there may be some half-elves, but they are few and far between, and there are only a handful left in the whole world.

Therefore, summoning a spirit is simply impossible.

However, according to the book, it is not impossible to summon humanoid species.

For example, giants, orcs, or even dragons, or dragonmen—these unimaginable species—if one could summon a rarer species, that would be even more admirable and remarkable.

This is actually what I'm really looking forward to, because... if I could summon a familiar as cute as Shiro, wouldn't I be ecstatic?

However, I would prefer to summon a familiar like a dragon girl. If it were a cute little loli, I could stick to her all day long, which would be quite a happy thing.

Just thinking about it makes me smile in a very lewd way.

"Ivy, classmate Ivy?"

Suddenly, I thought I heard someone calling my name.

"Eh?"

Suddenly, a piece of chalk came flying straight down from the sky with lightning speed and hit me squarely on the forehead.

"Ugh, that hurts."

They instinctively covered their aching foreheads, trembling with pain.

Actually, I'm most afraid of pain.

The pain from being flicked on the forehead was especially unbearable...

"Seriously, Ivy, you need to listen carefully to the class meeting and the instructions. By the way, Ivy, are you feeling better? Can you cast spells now?"

At this point, Ms. Kaphni was quite angry, but she was still very worried about my health.

"Um... thank you for your concern, Teacher Kaphni. Although I haven't fully recovered, I can cast spells normally without any problems."

Indeed, it seems that it will take at least another month or so to fully recover to its peak condition.

If I could recover that quickly, I would be invincible.

"That's good. Then do your best during the summoning ceremony. Actually, it's not just me, but all the students and teachers in the grade are looking forward to seeing what you can summon."

"OK, all right."

Actually, I had a feeling that I might summon some powerful creature. I'm really excited about what kind of powerful creature it is.

"Alright, everyone take a short break. At 9:30, gather at the location of the summoning magic circle in the backyard of the chapel. Since all 150 students in the second year, starting from Class E, need to perform a summoning ritual, some students may have special physical conditions and may need to summon a contract on their own. Just register with the headmaster and complete the contract within a week. However, if you fail to summon a familiar within the one-week grace period, your contract summoning score will be 0. In even worse cases, if you fail to summon a familiar by the end of the semester, you will be held back a year. Does everyone understand?"

"Yes!"

All the students answered in unison.

In fact, magic academies also value familiar summoning quite a bit. If the quality of the summoned familiar is particularly poor, such as just summoning ordinary small animals, then it will be considered an immediate failure.

While it might not lead to repeating a grade, that person would definitely be ridiculed by everyone, and I also know many people who couldn't escape such a terrifying shadow and committed suicide...

Basically, every semester starts with the lowest-ranked classes being called upon, while we elites from Class A are usually the last to appear.

"Ivy, Ivy, what kind of monster will you summon?"

As soon as the bell rang at nine o'clock to end the class meeting, Lila approached me with a big smile.

Because she is still my deskmate.

"Uh... how would I know?"

Actually, I don't know what kind of familiar I'll summon. Anyway, as long as it's a powerful familiar, that's fine. If it's cute, that would be even better.

"Don't you already have Xiaobai? Why don't you just form a contract with Xiaobai?"

At this moment, Elena slowly walked over and said in a serious tone.

"I originally had this plan, but I'm worried that Xiaobai might get hurt in battle, so I'm planning to summon another one."

Honestly, I'm terrified that my beloved harem members will get hurt, especially Xiaobai and Lila. Although orcs recover three to five times faster than normal people, the scar on her back is something that can never be healed after being seriously injured.

Every time I wash Xiaobai, I feel a pang of heartache when I see that deep scar.

"It's about time we set off."

After seeing that most of my classmates had left in groups, I stood up and made the suggestion.

"okay."

However, this summoning will definitely take a whole day.

However, when there's nothing to do all day, you can sit on the lawn and chat, or even take a short rest. I've heard that summoning a familiar through a contract requires a huge amount of magic power. If you don't conserve your energy and use all your skills to summon it, you might end up with a very low-quality familiar instead of a high-quality one.

Therefore, the reason why Class A was chosen to be the final act was to give us enough time to cultivate our character and nurture our magical power.

And so, we followed our classmates to the backyard of the chapel, which was not far from the academy's teaching building. It was the area of ​​the open-air magic circle for summoning familiars.

Chapter 45 The Beginning of the Summoning Ritual (Part 2)

Upon arrival, sure enough, a huge summoning magic circle, about 2.5 meters in diameter, was placed in the very center of the chapel's backyard.

At the same time, it was also surrounded by countless fences.

Furthermore, the backyard is extremely large; it could easily accommodate 500 people, let alone 150.

At that moment, the student council president, senior student Becky, seemed to have reserved a spot for us, and then waved to me.

Since that's the case, I felt awkward refusing, so I quickly walked over with Lira and Elena.

"Senior Becky, what are you doing here?"

Anyone would be puzzled, because this is the ritual site for second-year students to summon familiars, and it is currently the time for the other students to attend class.

"Well, the student council is here to maintain order, but there aren't many members, only sixteen right now, and they all have excellent academic performance, so this was personally approved by the dean."

"Eh……"

So the four of us sat down like that.

As expected of the student council president, the position he chose couldn't be better.

From this position, you can basically see the entire stadium.

The magic circle used for the summoning ritual, the neatly arranged lines of Class E, and even the positions of the judges' seats were all clearly visible.

"However, the three of you are really inseparable. Every time I see Ivy, I also see Lila and Elena."
