Full-Time Magister: Summoning Eight Demons at the Start

Mo Fan hesitated for a moment, but still downed the garlic clove in his hand in one gulp. The two attendants beside Asha Ruya did not dare to hesitate either, and like Mo Fan, they also downed their garlic cloves in one gulp.

"Your Excellency, this will pass if you just bear with it!" The short man looked anxiously at the unmoved Lü Cheng.

"You seem to have a solution?" Asha Ruya asked.

"Hmm." Lü Cheng returned the gray garlic to the short man, then casually took out a basketball-sized luminous pearl and tossed it into the air.

The next instant, the luminous pearl suspended in the air burst forth with light as bright as the sun. The land illuminated by the light quickly returned to calm, and the corpses and spirits that had crawled out of the ground also hurriedly moved away from the light.

Within just a few breaths, the area within a hundred meters of Lü Cheng returned to calm.

"This is..." the short man exclaimed in surprise.

"A magical artifact that simulates sunlight. I tried making it before coming to the ancient capital, and it seems to work quite well," Lu Cheng said.

Daolong knows a lot, not only black magic and righteous magic, but also a lot about that old thing, including quite a few spells to exorcise the dead.

He learned some things, and this magical artifact was actually a luminous pearl with the inscription "Demons and monsters, leave quickly," with some light and fire attribute materials added inside to expand the range of the spell.

"Sir, do you have any more of this?" the short man asked eagerly.

In a godforsaken place like the ancient capital, having such a special magical tool would double your safety!

“This is the only one available right now. If you want it, I’ll give it to you after this mission is over,” Lu Cheng said.

"Consider this a thank you for your help this time."

"Thank you, Your Excellency!" The short man didn't say anything to refuse; he should just accept the gift from such an important person.

Moreover, this is not just a magical artifact, but also a symbol of the senator!

He'll have plenty to brag about in the Hunter's Alliance from now on!

“However, this thing consumes a lot of resources,” Lu Cheng said.

"I don't recommend that people below the rank of high-level mage use it for a long time. Your magic power may not be enough. If you really have to use it, I suggest you bring more people and take turns supporting it."

The more powerful the spell, the greater the cost. The effect of the spell also varies depending on the level of the mage who provides the necessary support.

Just like him and the Holy Lord, they both possess the twelve talismans, but the magical power they can unleash is completely different.

He's currently using fire-type galactic energy to power this thing, so the consumption is negligible, but others don't have such terrifying magical energy as him.

"You can also forge magical tools?" Asha asked curiously.

“A hobby,” Lü Cheng said.

"But what about you? How did you end up in this godforsaken place?"

“I…” Asha Ruya hesitated.

"If it's inconvenient, I won't say," Lü Cheng said.

"Conti said you're an information broker?"

Asha'ruya was taken aback. "What do you want to know?"

“My parents,” Lü Cheng said.

“I feel that their identities are very special, even the old priest in the Holy City doesn’t want to mention them.”

"It's not convenient for me to say too much right now," Asha'ruya said in her mind.

"However, you should stay away from the Holy City as much as possible. Although your parents are from the Holy City, they are wanted by the Holy City because of what happened back then."

"Why?" Lu Cheng asked.

“Your mother went mad in the Holy City, causing a spatial storm that nearly destroyed the city,” Asha'ruya said.

"For Wen Tai?" Lu Cheng asked with amusement.

I have a strange feeling that his biological father is being cuckolded.

"I'm not sure." Asha'ruya shook her head.

"However, no news of that incident from the Holy City has been reported, and your parents have also disappeared since then."

"So, you don't know whether they're alive or dead?" Lü Cheng said.

Asha'sya nodded, then shook her head. "I don't have any information about them, but one thing is certain: they are still alive. At least, your mother is still alive."

"Why?" Lu Cheng asked.

“Because you’re still here,” Asha’ruya said.

"..."

"What do you mean?" Lu Cheng asked, puzzled.

“The Holy City is more concerned about their lives than you are,” Asha'ruya said.

"If the Holy City has confirmed the deaths of your parents, then after your identity was reported to the Holy City some time ago, the Holy City's Order of Inquisitors and those archangels should have come to arrest you."

"But they didn't come, or rather, they didn't dare to come."

"..."

"Don't dare to come? That's so arrogant?" Lu Cheng looked puzzled.

Even if those two have reached the level of forbidden spells, forbidden spells are everywhere in the Holy City, and the archangel is even an emperor-level combatant. How powerful must they be to make the Holy City not dare to make a move?

“It’s not that they can’t beat them, but that while your mother’s strength isn’t top-tier, her destructive power as a spatial-type disaster victim has exceeded the limits of human mages,” Asha’sya said earnestly.

"The spatial storm she triggered is a natural disaster on par with the Sha Yuan."

In recent years, the Holy City has become increasingly frantic in its search for the talents of the victims, even changing its previous primary strategy of taking them in as dogs. Once discovered, they are sealed away immediately, largely because they were frightened by Su Meng's madness in the Holy City back then!

That's a threat that transcends forbidden spells!

Even Archangel Remiel, who was in the Holy City, could not stop this disaster!

This was also the first time a human mage had faced a real disaster!

The Holy City realized that the real disaster was beyond their control.

"Wait a minute, doesn't the Holy City always regard the victims of disasters as heretics? How did my mother become a heretical mage?" Lu Cheng asked, looking puzzled.

Asha's face was full of sarcasm. "Do you know how many victims the Holy City has absorbed over the past thousand years? They don't regard the victims as heretics, but rather as powerful forces that are beyond their control. Even the founder of the Inquisition was himself a victim."

"Those self-righteous saints think that all people are foolish and have no right to control that power. They believe that such a calamity-like power should be submitted to the feet of God. That's why the Holy City is searching the whole world for people with the talent of the victims."

"Because they know best how terrifying that power is."

"Aren't they worried about betrayal by the victims?" Lu Cheng asked doubtfully.

“Betrayal?” Asha's expression turned strange.

Do you think those archangels in the Holy City are just for show?

"The biggest problem with the victims is not how strong they are, but that they themselves are like a manifestation of natural disasters, and their destructive power is the primary concern."

"Killing the afflicted is not difficult for the archangels, but the death of the afflicted does not mean that the disasters they caused will disappear. In fact, without the control of the afflicted, the disasters that have already been born will become even more rampant."

"Moreover, the Holy City's research on forbidden techniques has always been at the forefront of the world, so even if someone wanted to betray it, they wouldn't have the chance."

"What about my mother?" Lu Cheng asked with a strange expression.

The Holy City was almost destroyed, and we still haven't had a chance?

“Her situation is special,” Asha's said.

"Moreover, you could say that she was the leader of the Inquisition at the time. Those Inquisition mages, who were not very bright to begin with, worshipped her almost like an archangel under the throne of God. Before her betrayal, she was the sharpest sword in the Holy City, and no one ever thought that she would betray them."

“Even now, the information about your mother in the Holy Tribunal is a lie told by Judge Lü Chengze, not because she actually betrayed the Holy City.”

"Perhaps it was to stabilize those crazed Arbiter mages, or perhaps it was to save face. After all, back then, in order to show that it was not indiscriminately hunting down the victims, the Holy City had revealed to many forces that the Arbiter Council had spatial-type victims, and that one of the victims was even God's most loyal believer."

“If your mother is convicted of heresy, and this so-called most faithful believer of God, the heretic mage, also becomes a heretic who needs to be eliminated, the Holy Tribunal will become a joke.”

"Even now, your mother is still outwardly a loyal follower of God in the Holy Tribunal; she was simply deceived by your father."

"Archangel Remiel even said that he looked forward to her returning to the Holy City with the heads of sinners as soon as possible, and that God would forgive her sins..."

"It's just like coaxing a child."

Chapter 115 Terrifying Family Background

116.

……

"Wouldn't they consider arresting me to threaten them into showing themselves?" Lu Cheng asked.

“They don’t dare take that risk,” Asha’s said.

“If they capture you first, and your mother is still alive, the Holy City will become a battlefield. Given the destructive power your mother displayed back then, although the archangel has the strength to kill her, the Holy City will absolutely suffer unimaginable destruction!”

"The Holy City is of great significance to the Holy Judgment Council and must not be lost. If something really goes wrong, even an archangel cannot bear such a responsibility."

"So many years have passed. With your mother's talent, she must have reached the level of forbidden spells. She had that kind of destructive power back then, and now..."

"The risk is too great."

"Moreover, it's not convenient for them to take action."
