Overlord, I don't want to be the Holy Queen's Great Sword

In fact, Karl suspected that he was born with supernatural powers and affinity for magic. It was because he was surrounded by a large amount of positive energy when his body was developing at the age of three, and this was slowly nurtured.

After all, supernatural powers are not something that she is born with, but rather they gradually manifest as she grows up.

It is most accurate to use magic to detect when the child is four or five years old.

However, [Healing of Minor Injuries] is aimed at the human body after all. Mental fatigue can only be relieved through physical nourishment, not solved.

Although Karko had the ability to [Heal Minor Injuries] once a day thanks to the brilliant angel cat~Meow, this was not enough under the rigorous magic training she customized for herself.

So what is the body’s first reaction when a person is mentally fatigued?

go to bed.

That's why she set her sights on [Sleep].

She can enter a deep sleep state directly by casting a spell. Isn't this kind of magic just suitable for her?

Speaking of which, she remembered seeing a report before she traveled through time, which said that in order to ensure the physical and mental health of children of all ages, primary school students should get enough sleep for 10 hours.

Karl didn't know whether this was true or not, but she had heard a lot about people who were smart since childhood and then aged prematurely.

Mental fatigue is very serious. If a person is hit hard, it is entirely possible for his hair to turn white overnight.

Carl keeps practicing magic in order to survive in the future, not to kill himself before the Bone King arrives.

Hey!

Actually, if you think about it carefully, isn’t this also a kind of victory?

The girl couldn't help but curl her lips, and for a moment she didn't know whether to say that she was optimistic or not afraid of death.

She always felt that she had a sense of luck that she had not seen the Bone King, and perhaps the Bone King would never come in her life.

Is it also possible that Bone King traveled through time two hundred years ago?

But if that were the case, it wouldn't be good news.

Because such a descending tomb would directly destroy all the surrounding countries, it would be better to hope that the Bone King is still alive, so that at least there is a chance for negotiations.

Karl shook his head gently, cleared his mind, and then listened carefully to Mariana's teachings.

Mariana was seen wearing her white priest robe, and her fingers were like a paintbrush, first painting a pale blue disc filled with various symmetrical patterns.

Then, around the disc, in a different space, at a higher level, a large circle was outlined as the base, and then Marian’s fingers moved quickly, writing winding curves of various shapes and sizes on it.

While writing, Mariana was also explaining.

"We temporarily call these winding lines magic patterns."

"It is temporarily called the magic pattern?" Karl asked subconsciously, but his eyes were fixed on Mariana's painting handwriting.

She didn't feel it when she watched the animation before, but after coming to this world and seeing the release of magic with her own eyes, she realized that this magic circle is far more than just a simple symmetrical pattern.

This existence that looks like lines is actually more like a kind of text.

Now I have heard the real name of this thing, but I didn't expect there would be a temporary one in front of it.

The girl blinked her eyes. She decisively developed her good habit of going to the teacher when she had questions, and asked in confusion.

"Why do you say it's temporary?"

"Because no one has figured out the meaning of these patterns yet, they seem to have a certain meaning individually, and when stacked together they seem to have another meaning."

"And they are evenly divided into fixed areas. They don't seem to be related to each other. If a part of the area is missing, at most the magic cannot be activated."

"You can clearly feel the failure of the magic circle. Apart from that, nothing else happened."

"To this day, people still haven't figured out the meaning of these patterns. Most of the time, they rely on their feelings, so they are temporarily called magic patterns."

Mariana explained, and at the same time, she drew a big circle in the air with her fingers. All the patterns were wrapped in it, and the magic circle that was originally stagnant in the air began to slowly rotate.

Like a high-precision mechanical instrument.

"This is the magic of sleep..."

Karko looked at the magic circle in front of him that was flashing with blue light, and his eyes were particularly focused on the patterns that seemed to be hollowed out and carved on the blue ring.

Recalling what Mariana said, Karl, who was a corporate slave in his previous life, suddenly had an inexplicable feeling.

These lines... do not interfere with each other...

Why does it sound like computer language programming and modularity?

Then Karko looked at the magic circle in front of him and subconsciously outlined it.

The existence of her innate supernatural power allows her to control the magic power in her body to flow out from her fingertips.

Karl was like an adult who had been paralyzed in bed for many years undergoing rehabilitation training.

He started by walking slowly, then began to speed up, and after that he became very familiar with it and started to run very quickly.

A pale blue light shone in the room. At that moment, everyone in the classroom stopped what they were doing and looked at Karko.

Her every move seemed to affect everyone's heart.

When the girl drew the last stroke of the magic circle, everyone in the classroom suddenly had cardiac arrest.

But immediately he couldn't help but tremble.

The magic circle, like Mariana's, began to spin.

Chapter 23: Is the light a little dimmer?

Karl looked at the rotating magic circle in front of him in a daze.

This meant that she had already solved the most difficult step in the entire magic. Now she just had to adjust her state and synchronize the magic circle and chanting, and everything would be solved easily.

In fact, that's exactly what Karko did.

She did not slowly draw the magic circle as before, but just subconsciously waved her hand lightly.

The wonderful feeling from before came back to me again.

The sound of the surging waves seemed to echo in his ears, and the figure of the glorious angel cat~meow emerged.

After being smudged by Karlko herself, the invisible magic power seemed to have telepathic connection with her thoughts and began to be outlined at an extremely fast speed.

It's like an ultramarine flower blooming in the air.

And at the moment when it fully blossomed, two words with aria slowly uttered from Karl's mouth.

"[Sleep]"

In an instant, the magic used the magic circle as a sight and immediately locked onto Mariana in front of Karko.

Realizing this, Karl was startled and tried to withdraw the magic, but found it was too late.

[First-tier resistance improvement]

Mariana smiled gently, very naturally, but she quickly released her magic before Karl could do so.

[First-level resistance enhancement] is a magic that can enhance a person's resistance to any attack from any force (including but not limited to elemental damage, mind control, and many other effects).

In the face of this magic, sleep naturally has no effect.

A pale blue light enveloped Mariana, but it immediately shattered like broken glass and disappeared.

"Your Highness Karko, although casting magic requires a high level of concentration, we magic casters cannot really put all our energy into magic during this period."

"We also need to observe our surroundings, not only to make sure if anyone comes to disturb us, but also to determine the target of our spell."

Mariana pointed at her eyes and ears, then pointed around, signaling Carl to pay attention to this, and then teased with a smile.

"Teacher, I don't want to fall down in the classroom!"

Suddenly, the classroom was filled with laughter from young boys and girls.

When it was almost time, Mariana turned around and pressed her hand slightly towards everyone, signaling for silence.

Perhaps it was Mariana's beautiful face with a naturally cool quality, or perhaps it was the slightly ascetic white priest robe she wore.

This allowed the priestess, who looked to be in her early thirties, to calm the originally noisy classroom with just a glance.

All the princes and princesses, along with their tutors, immediately started practicing magic seriously without saying a word.

And Karko looked at Mariana, she deeply realized that this was actually the power of the second-in-command of the temple.

When Mariana turned around and found Karko staring at her in a daze, she thought she was frightened by what had just happened, so she smiled and gently rubbed Karko's little head to comfort her.

"Okay, Your Highness Karko, you don't have to be so nervous. In fact, people who cast magic for the first time all have similar situations."

"Even if your magic hits me, nothing will actually happen."

[Sleep] is, after all, only a first-level magic, and its function is only to make people fall into a deep sleep quickly.

In a sense, it feels like wanting to doze off. Anyone with a strong will can easily overcome this problem.

The reason why Mariana released [First Level Resistance Enhancement] just now was just to have a sample fight with Karl.

That is, in addition to the various conditions mentioned above, casting a spell must also be fast. Only by being fast can you release magic before the other party has time to react or even interfere with you.

Of course, the best solution is to say some magic, but actually cast another kind of magic without chanting.

However, this requires too much ability from a person, and it is impossible to display her superb magical skills.

But Marianna never forgot why she agreed to the royal request.

She needs fifth-order magical knowledge.

It is still too difficult to experience the feeling of fifth-level magic just by magic ascension and then create magic based on the feeling.

The most crucial point here is the existence of the magic circle. To know the complexity of magic, you can completely judge it by the situation of the magic circle.

If a person can cast a magic that is about half a person's height and surrounded by countless rings, then the level of that magic is definitely not low, at least not lower than the fourth level.

As for the three-dimensional magic circle that surrounds the Bone King when he casts super-dimensional magic, few people in the world have ever seen it.

The existence of magic circles makes the difficulty of creating magic increasingly higher. Just the construction of the magic circle alone requires an unknown amount of time due to the cost of trial and error.

Perhaps when casting magic, the inspiration comes at that moment when the world is in harmony, and it is created immediately, or perhaps there will be no progress for decades.

So she really needed the fifth-level magical knowledge.

The girl in front of her is her only chance, especially when she is such a genius and is favored by the God of Wind.

For a moment, Mariana even felt that this was God's arrangement.

The priestess prayed silently in her heart to the water god she believed in, and at the same time, she tried to get as close to An Lan as possible in a gentle tone.

"What I said just now was just a little joke of mine."

"But I didn't expect that Your Highness Karko is so talented. At least, among the people I have seen, there is no one more talented than you."

"Then, how about we change our plan and try to learn a few other spells as well?"

"Everything is up to your arrangement, High Priest."

The girl's soft and well-behaved voice echoed in the classroom, and then brought countless shocks to people.

Another glance, another step to the point.

In the next few teaching sessions, Carl mastered all the magic without even having to try it for the third time.

If Mariana had not decided to teach these magics today, Karko's progress might even surpass most of the people present.

If they were to be overtaken by someone who had just started school on the second day, they would be doomed to die!

Everyone was busy practicing hard and didn't even have the energy to complain about the class time that had just been changed.

On the contrary, with Karko's performance, an idea slowly began to take root in their minds.

This is the one favored by the Wind God, is this the Saint? !

All of a sudden, the learning atmosphere in the classroom became much better.

When the sun sets and today's classes are over, Karl jumps back from the classroom with his books in his arms.

Because she needed to consolidate her knowledge, she didn't learn much magic. In addition to the four simple spells she learned at the beginning, she also learned [Defense Against Evil] and [Light Magic].

But she obviously felt a little bit difficult in learning the latter two, so High Priestess Mariana asked her to just consolidate them and not worry about other things.

But even so, she gained a lot that day. The amount of magic she learned even surpassed Damian and the fourth prince Ian, who was only eight years old.

Just thinking about this matter, she couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

Oh, by the way, while I still have the desire to learn magic, I'll see if I can get some money from the Glorious Angel Cat Meow!
