The wrong transmigrator assigned by the system

Let us encourage each other!

Seeing Chimzia and Akodes holding hands, exchanging knowing glances and gazing deeply into each other's eyes, Lu Ming felt a profound sense of unease.

"Alright, alright, you two sit down properly." Annoyed by these two, Lu Ming said with dissatisfaction.

"Yes!" In a flash, Chimzia and Akodes sat down side by side, looking at Lu Ming with expressions of "I'm a good boy/girl," which made him even more annoyed.

'I hate business trips!' Lu Ming muttered to himself, then took out a fruit from a tree blessed by the god Kaiya and poured a large amount of magic into it.

Soon, to the astonishment of Akodes and Chimzia, the fruit split open and sprouted. In no time, a small sapling stood upright in Lu Ming's hand.

"Go get that big flowerpot and a bag of soil!" Lu Ming ordered Chimzia and Akodes after the sapling stopped its rampant growth.

Immediately, the two of them ran to get a large flowerpot and a cloth bag of soil they had dug up from the backyard.

Lu Ming quickly placed the sapling in the large flowerpot and covered it with soil.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Ming left Chimzia and Akodes there and went to wash his hands.

Seeing this, Chimzia and Akodes exchanged a puzzled look, followed Lu Ming, and asked, "What should we do next?"

"What are you doing? Let me think!" After washing his hands, Lu Ming thought for a moment, then said, "Wait!"

"wait?"

“Yes! It’s time for Kaiya to take her afternoon nap right now, so she probably won’t pay any attention to us. We can only wait until she wakes up.” Lu Ming said with a smile as he washed his hands.

Just then, a girl's voice suddenly rang out.

"Dad, how could you say that to me! I came all this way for nothing."

Upon hearing the words of the girl who had suddenly appeared, Chimzia and Akodist were immediately terrified, their hair standing on end.

Lu Ming, however, seemed unconcerned and laughed, "Isn't that how you are when I'm at home? Once you fall asleep, you're impossible to wake up."

"That's because it's Sister Luo Ya making a fuss, and I just don't want to pay attention to her. Dad, come and wake me up, and I'll definitely wake up!" The girl seemed a little angry, and thus said somewhat unhappily.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming, who was drying his hands, turned around, bypassed Chimzia and Akodes who were frozen in terror, hugged the somewhat angry girl, and said with a smile, "It was Daddy's fault, don't be angry, okay? Kaya."

"Okay!" Upon hearing Lu Ming's apology, Kaiya immediately smiled, put her arm around Lu Ming, and nodded.

After a brief hug, the father and daughter sat down on the sofa in the living room to talk. They completely ignored Chimzia and Akodes until Chimera, who was taking a nap upstairs, woke up, and Jamila, who had been busy at the temple and had just returned, discovered them. Only then were the two rescued; otherwise, they would never have dared to move!

After all, regardless of the circumstances, Kaiya is a deity shared by both the Church of Light and the Church of Shadow. Although she is only a lesser god, she is still a god! Neither of them dares to offend her...

To apologize to the two priests and bishops who had been frozen in place all afternoon, Chimera kept them at the mansion for dinner.

When dinner was served and everyone started eating, Kaia noticed that Akodes and Chimzia kept glancing at her every now and then, which puzzled her.

Perhaps sensing Kaiya's confusion, Lu Ming told her about the current misfortunes of Chimzia and Akodes.

Then, Kaiya closed his eyes.

Seeing this, Arcodis and Chimzia mistakenly thought that He was trying to help them, and they both looked at Kaeya. Soon after, Kaeya showed a somewhat embarrassed expression.

"Stop yelling..." After a while, Kaiya finally opened her eyes. However, she didn't bring any good news. Instead, she slumped onto the table, looking dejected, and said with a hint of grievance.

Upon hearing this, Chimchia and Akodes felt a sense of despair. Since even Kaeya, a subordinate of both the God of Light and the Shadow Dragon King, had been insulted, their hope was gone.

Moreover, Lu Ming added fuel to the fire by saying, "I originally wanted these two gods to issue a divine decree for you so that you could survive, but I didn't expect... sigh~! You two better pray for yourselves!"

“…” Upon hearing this, Akodes and Chimzia exchanged a glance, and then began to stuff themselves with food, shoving everything from everyone’s plates on the table into their mouths, as if they were about to eat themselves to death.

But just when the two of them were about to burst from overeating, Kaiya suddenly said, "Well, the God of Light and the Shadow Dragon King both said that they would have their Familia come and tell you two to live."

As soon as Kaeya uttered his words, Chimzia and Akodes froze.

"Then why didn't you say so sooner?" They turned their heads stiffly, looking at Kaiya with pained expressions and asking in despair.

"It's nothing, it's just that you two caused me to be scolded by those two, so I just wanted to see how miserable you two looked."

'This god is black!' With a thud, the two guys, who were almost stuffed to death, slumped onto the table, crying out in their hearts.

Chapter Seventeen - Magical Academic Research Society

Just days after Arctis and Chimzia, with the help of each other's gods and the understanding of the citizens of both cities, were able to begin building churches and temples, Lumin and Lothric, feeling that they had done enough, began packing their bags to go home.

During this period, Darkea only provided about thirty copies of the promised reward, which was copies of the spellbooks. Including what they had received before, the two of them now had a total of fifty-seven spellbooks.

This greatly frustrated Liu Ming and Lothric, because such a small number of magic books was nothing. Even a small magic school has sixty books in its library; otherwise, how would you teach others magic?

This paltry reward is less than one-thousandth of the promised number of magic books.

Seeing Darkea's shameless behavior, Liu Ming and Lothric no longer wanted to stay in Darkea. They had a lot of things to do back home and simply didn't have time to waste on these Darkea sprites!

However, perhaps knowing that 6 Ming and Lothric were planning to leave, a viscount from the new nobles of Gulweg and Asilia suddenly arrived at 6 Ming's temporary residence.

"I heard you and Lothric are planning to go back to Miracaissa?" As soon as she entered the house, Aseria asked with a displeased expression.

"The matter of the wandering spirits has been mostly dealt with, and you can handle the rest yourselves. We don't need to do anything more. Besides, there's a lot of stuff waiting for us to do back in Miracaissa. We can't stay here any longer," Liu Ming said to Asilia as he and Chimera packed their clothes into their suitcases.

Upon hearing this, the viscount who had come with Asilia said anxiously, "But if you go back, what will happen to the magical academic research conference we are preparing for?"

"What is that thing?" Liu Ming paused for a moment, then looked at the viscount with some curiosity.

At this point, Aseria spoke up to explain for the viscount: "Here's the thing. We agreed that your and Earl Lothric's reward would be copies of the spellbook. But the nobles who possess the spellbooks aren't very willing to hand over the copies. So..."

"So what?"

"So after negotiating with those nobles, the royal family and the priests of the Shadow Church reached an agreement. That is, to hold a magical academic research conference in Gulvig, and to have the magicians under those nobles bring their spellbooks to participate in this academic conference, so that you and Earl of Lothric can obtain copies of the spellbooks."

"And what is the price? Asilia, what is the price?"

"The price is that you two also have to produce some spellbooks, and they must be rare spellbooks..." After saying the answer, Aseria immediately hid behind the Chimera, afraid that Liu Ming would hit her with fire.

In fact, Liu Ming was indeed a little angry, but not to the point of hitting her.

"You guys are really something! We clearly agreed that you would give us copies of the spellbook as payment for Lothric and me coming to help, but now it's turned into an exchange! What kind of small country do you take our Kingdom of Miracaissa for?! We are not people you can bully as you please!" He pointed angrily at Aseria and the viscount, and said furiously!

Knowing that the reward would be exchanged for their own spellbooks was indeed infuriating, but Aseria and the viscount were powerless to do anything about it. After all, the Queen's envoy had boasted that he would give Darkea copies of all its spellbooks. The nobles were already grateful they hadn't rebelled upon hearing the reward; now, this academic conference was the only option for them to cope. Otherwise, even the neighboring small countries would laugh at Darkea.

“If those nobles refuse to give it to us, there’s nothing we can do! Besides, you and Count Lothric can just use any unimportant magic book to fool them, right?” Aseria said somewhat presumptuously from behind the chimera.

"Do you think those magicians can't tell whether the contents of the spellbook are precious or not?" Liu Ming glanced coldly at Asilia and asked somewhat angrily.

"Uh..." Asilia was immediately stumped by Lu Ming's question. Since he was a magician, he naturally knew whether the contents of the magic book and the magic recorded there were rare or not, so it was impossible to fool those magicians! So in the end, Asilia had no choice but to shut up to avoid trouble.

At this moment, the viscount spoke.

“My lord, those noble magicians have all said that the only spellbooks they want are those about controlling shadow demons. They don’t even ask for other rare spellbooks!”

"Command shadow demons? What they want is the method to make a pact with shadow demons?" After hearing the viscount's words, Liu Ming asked incredulously, "Since when did your country's mages have to learn from other countries even the method of making pacts with elemental creatures?"

To be honest, Liu Ming was somewhat surprised that the spellbook under the command of the Dark Elf noble specifically specified the required magic or techniques. This was because his initial method of forming a contract with the Shadow Demon involved simply summoning a newly born, very weak Shadow creature and gradually nurturing it into the most powerful Shadow creature—the Shadow Demon—rather than directly signing a contract with it. His later ability to control other Shadow Demons was merely due to his sufficient understanding of these creatures, knowing what they desired, allowing him to command them at will.

Summoning shadow demons indiscriminately is extremely dangerous if other mages do not understand or cannot meet the needs of shadow creatures.

However, judging from the situation with Styx in Miracaissa, there are quite a few mages capable of directly commanding shadow demons. So there shouldn't be none in Darkeafa!

However, the viscount's next words dispelled his doubts.

"The original chief deity of the Shadow Church was the Shadow Goddess of the Shadow World, not the Shadow Dragon King. However, during a war with the Aifa Empire, the Shadow Dragon King's priests summoned His kin, reversing the unfavorable situation and allowing the newly established Dark Aifa Empire to defeat the Aifa Empire and survive. Therefore, the Shadow Church elevated the Shadow Dragon King to the position of chief deity, while the Shadow Goddess, who chose inaction, was quickly expelled from the Shadow Church's pantheon by the Shadow Dragon King, the Poison God, and the Spider Queen, becoming a chief deity without her own church. Because of this, this goddess, who was on par with the God of Light, sealed the magic that allowed Dark Elves to form contracts with Shadow creatures, preventing them from using their magic to form contracts with the kin of their original protector. However, having lost the method of summoning Shadow creatures, and for various reasons being rejected by the Light World, the Fire World, the Gale World, the Mineral World, and the Pure Water World, the Dark Elves can now only summon lightning and plant-based elemental creatures..."

"Your country has become overly reliant on the power of the priests of the Shadow Church only after losing the ability to summon most of the elemental creatures. Otherwise, you simply wouldn't be able to deal with the attacks of the Aifa Empire by relying solely on the offensive magic of mages." After listening to the viscount's words, Liu Ming immediately and astutely realized the reason why the Dark Elf mage wanted to form a contract with the mages of Miracaisar and the Shadow Demon.

“That’s right, that’s correct.” The viscount didn’t hide his and the nobles’ thoughts, but chose to admit it openly.

However, while she admitted it, Liu Ming was still somewhat unwilling.

Although the magic and skills that the Dark Elf wanted were things that many fourth-tier and above mages in Miracaisar possessed, why would he risk offending a chief god to exchange them for magic books whose authenticity was uncertain? After all, the Dark Elf had already reneged on a debt once before! Their credibility was hardly reliable.

Perhaps sensing Liu Ming's concerns, the Viscount continued, "To show our sincerity, our Queen has decided to allow (the Hunters) to establish a branch in Gulveig City! In addition, we will increase the number of orphans that Jamilaya will take to Miracaissa to seven thousand, and Asilia Gomela Millerz will also be given to you as a gift!"

"What!?" Upon hearing this, before Liu Ming could react, Aseria was furious. She simply couldn't believe that the Empire would casually give her, a loyal noblewoman, as a gift to...a human.

Seeing Asilia's shocked expression, Liu Ming frowned slightly, then said, "In that case, I have no choice but to agree to your participation in this academic conference. However, I have two more requests!"

"Please speak!" Because Liu Ming has a method to cultivate shadow demons, and this method is one of the few necessary conditions for them to break free from the oppression of the Shadow Church, so no matter what Liu Ming's request is, as long as it is not too excessive, even if it is to spend the night with their country's empress, they and the royal family will agree without hesitation.

Of course, Liu Ming's request couldn't be that foolish. His request was made to appease the Shadow Goddess's anger and to protect his own interests, so it had to meet both conditions.

“My requirements are simple. First, I hope that the copies you provide are not forgeries. Second, I want a temple built for the Goddess of Shadows near Gulveig’s (Hunter’s) branch.”

Upon hearing this, the Viscount considered it briefly and then agreed. Building a temple for the Goddess of Shadow was nothing unusual; if a church for the God of Light could be built in Gulvig, why couldn't a temple for the Goddess of Shadow be built?

The only thing to worry about is whether the Shadow Church will cause any trouble.

However, if they were to build the Temple of the Goddess of Shadow near the Church of the God of Light, it probably wouldn't be a problem. At least the Shadow Dragon King wouldn't allow his followers and priests to do anything. As for whether the God of Light and the Goddess of Shadow would become popular, that's none of their business.

The Viscount was calculating his options, unaware that the Temple of the Goddess of Shadows had already been built in Miracaissa. Although it was located in Hyperion, Erebus, and Tartarus—three places with relatively free religious freedom—it was still built. Moreover, there was no divine fire; after all, the Goddess of Shadows hadn't fared well for millennia, and there was no need for further conflict. Therefore, the Viscount's hope that the divine fire of Light would ignite due to this event, causing a civil war in the Kingdom of Miracaissa over religious issues, was impossible to realize!

After Liu Ming agreed to attend this so-called academic conference, the Viscount took his leave, satisfied. He then went to persuade Lothric to also attend, and to demonstrate his methods for summoning and controlling creatures of light. Although this would inevitably involve agreeing to several more requests...

After the Dark Elf Viscount left, Liu Ming sat on the sofa and wrote something in a notebook. Judging from the content, he seemed to be calculating something.

Meanwhile, Aseria sat on another sofa, looking displeased, watching Liu Ming calculate something with obvious annoyance. After a while, she couldn't help but feel bored and angry.

"What are you calculating over there? Don't you even come over and comfort me!"

"I'm calculating whether establishing a (hunter) branch in Gulveig increases or decreases the likelihood of war between Mirakaisa and Darkaefa. Besides, I don't think I should comfort you, the guy who tricked me out of several spells!" Liu Ming said without looking up, his words revealing deep resentment towards Asilia.

Knowing she was not well-liked, Asilia didn't waste any words. She simply watched Liu Ming do his calculations and, after he finished, asked appropriately, "Did it go up or down?"

"It dropped by 4.7%. To be honest, I'm starting to regret it."

"why?"

"I brought you home for this 4.7, it's a loss no matter how you look at it."

"You bastard!" Upon hearing Liu Ming's words, Aseria flew into a rage and threw a nearby cushion at him...

-----------------------------------

"The time is drawing ever closer, yet I am trapped in this cage, unable to move under the oppression of nations like Mirakaiser and Darkea. If I had known it would turn out like this, I wouldn't have chosen this damned elven nation!" Aldrich, seated on his throne and transformed into a handsome male elf, said angrily.

"Eldridge, are you afraid?" The vampire queen, seated on another throne, glanced at him and asked.

"Fear? Of course I'm afraid! I can truly feel the fire gradually dying out, and one after another, the embers of the flameless are knocking against the world's walls, trying to come here and capture me, Lu Ming, Lothric, and all the others who can rekindle the fire. I can also feel the Deep Sea Age approaching!"

The vampire queen smiled slightly upon hearing this, gently stroking her slightly protruding belly, and said with a smile, "When this child of blood is born, everything you fear will cease to exist! Therefore, he will change the rules and make this world the domain of my vampire clan!"

“I hope so. Because then I won’t have to live in fear.” Eldridge rose from his throne and walked step by step out of the palace.

"Where are you going?"

"Dark Aifa".

What are you going there for?
