The brave Simmel wants to resign

[The Stone Flow Dragon's technique is [Release of Cursed Power], which creates countless virtual turrets in the sky within its domain.]

Everything is simple and straightforward, but that's precisely why—

"Come on!! Let's have a sweet get-together!!"

Even when the guaranteed hit effect is negated, Stone Flow Dragon's domain can still exert its influence on the battle within its area of ​​effect with far greater convenience than other spells.

boom--!--------

Inside the nose of the airplane, the light gradually coiled from wisps into pillars, and then rapidly spread into countless snakes!

The cursed power, as pure energy, bombards forward, and each attack is enough to cause devastating damage to modern urban clusters, burning down buildings and crushing iron walls!

The real person wants to deal with it.

but....

Given this all-around firepower coverage, what role can the enhanced version of the "non-action" transformation play?

hiss----

"Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!!"

The outstretched arm began to melt and wither the instant it approached the orb of light, and then...

Boom boom boom boom boom boom!

The explosions continued one after another, even forming lines and surfaces, creating a deafening roar!

The real person's physical body was instantly covered, and even the hardness of "killing the spirit" was instantly destroyed, and he was crushed into dust amidst screams.

"A real person!!!"

The water clock's waving technique protects the true person.

but....

Accumulated injuries will affect the sorcerer's ability to complete the construction of their domain.

Moreover, the entire period of time that the Real Person Academy took to develop was only two months.

In contrast, Shi Liulong studied sorcery during the peak of his sorcery skills, fought against many enemies, and continuously improved his sorcery and barrier techniques.

Even in a direct confrontation, Shi Liulong would definitely have the advantage as time went on.

And when the real player showed a weakness... this disadvantage was widened even further, until—

【Click】

The outer shell of the domain cracked on the side of the real person.

[Bang! ——! ————]

Fragments flew everywhere.

The two sides dispersed, and the water clock, protecting the real person in its arms, retreated backward.

Shi Liulong, on the other hand, fell to the ground and lit a cigarette with one hand.

Hey.

He stood up easily and took a casual puff.

Smoke billowed and swirled around his face like drifting clouds.

"call--"

Shi Liulong tilted his head back as if he were lighting a cigarette to savor the aftermath, his eyes tightly closed, and after a while, he finally exhaled a smoke ring.

As the circles floated upwards, Shi Liulong opened his eyes, gazing at the fragmented blue sky with a dazed look.

I haven't had this much fun playing in ages.

【but...】

"It's still not enough."

Shi Liulong lowered his head helplessly.

My stomach is still not satisfied.

His sharp eyes made no attempt to hide his desolation as he stared at the real man, who had been burned to a crisp.

"So, it wasn't you after all?"

After saying that, he raised his arm.

Point your fingertips at the real person and the water clock.

The high-density curse power condensed once again.

[The stone dragon, which unleashes its own power as a magical technique, can still deliver considerable damage even after the domain is expanded.]

That's all for now.

But before he could unleash the ice sand shockwave, a voice called out from behind him. Shi Liulong paused and slowly turned his head.

Behind them, Xia Youjie walked slowly towards them.

He was holding a disheveled, incapacitated heron in his hand.

"Tch, did that stupid woman lose?" Shi Liulong clicked his tongue. "The outcome was decided so quickly—you guys also have a domain-based competition, right? Looks like I lost."

"It's hard to say, I'm currently caught in a spell meltdown."

"Roar?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Liulong raised an eyebrow and looked at Xia Youjie.

Can users of the Spell Manipulation Technique also experience spell meltdown?

After all.

It would be rather strange if the spell manipulation technique could be used to expand a domain.

The expansion of the domain itself is granted by the combination of barrier spells and the innate spell. Even if the spell manipulating spirits is attached to the barrier, it is hard to imagine what kind of guaranteed hit effect it would have.

Surely you're not going to force the smell of Xia Youjie's cursed spirit rag into the enemy's brain?

That's really disgusting.

Moreover, he was quite curious: if the user entered the spell meltdown state, wouldn't the spell manipulation techniques become unusable?

"You're probably right. In fact, I'd like to try it out in battle myself."

Xia Youjie looked relaxed.

He doesn't plan to disclose information about his domain because his domain... is somewhat special.

As for circuit breakers?

(Although the cursed spirit does not go berserk, it seems that [Vortex] cannot be used while in the meltdown state.)

Nine years.

Xia Youjie mastered almost all the skills that could be acquired through hard work.

[Reversal Technique]

[Simplified Area]

[Domain Expansion]

【Extreme Vortex】 has also been developed, enabling its miniaturized release, and a new function has been developed—that is, to extract and use the spell spirit through the vortex.

The extracted spell can only be used once, but it is still a very useful trump card.

However, none of them are usable anymore.

(Wu seems to have said something about trying to damage your own brain and then repair it to cure the malfunction, right?)

Xia Youjie scratched his head.

"........."

(Is that guy an idiot?)

(No normal person would do something so dangerous, right?)

Xia Youjie complained.

Shi Liulong was amused by what Xia Youjie said.

"Haha! Would a normal person tell me something like this?!" He grinned at Xia You. "You, aren't you just inviting me to come and deal with you directly?"

"Perhaps. Although I am somewhat confident in my physical skills, I am probably no match for you in close combat."

Xia Youjie sighed.

Unexpectedly, this summoner has become the worst Grandmaster in modern boxing.

"But you wouldn't do that, would you?"

Shi Liulong remained silent.

"You said you weren't satisfied in your past life, right? Well, with your techniques, you probably haven't encountered a truly formidable opponent." Xia Youjie said admiringly. "Even I, unless I had a numerical advantage, would find it difficult to fight you on equal terms. So, I've come up with a solution..."

"Hey, hey, hey, why are you veerging into the topic of helping me fulfill my wish?" Shi Liulong interrupted, his pompadour tilting downwards, his eyes filled with suspicion. "We're not exactly acquainted, are we?"

“Yes.” Xia Youjie nodded.

"But you and this woman named Uru seem to be the type who can barely communicate, and the modern world of sorcery is so short of talent that they even want to borrow people who have been resurrected through Edo Tensei."

"I am a victim of the flesh."

“I will find a way to separate you from the original owner of this body—although I don’t care about the original owner of this body at all, my friends will be very conflicted about these things.”

Shi Liulong wanted to ask how such a thing could be done, but following Xia Youjie's gaze, he discovered a real person who looked like a charred corpse.

(Oh, that spell for the cursed spirit.)

If it is a "non-action transformation," then it is indeed possible to separate the physical body from the one who is being subjected to the physical body.

(They want to force me to do manual labor? That's really cruel, but—)

"Is that all?" Shi Liulong looked at Xia Youjie, his eyes filled with a deeper meaning.

Xia Youjie's lips curled up, "...It really can't hide from the great predecessor from four hundred years ago."
