Just became an evil god and was summoned by the saint

This is an attempt to disqualify herself from being a saint.

Damn you, Mir.

That wretched Doris!

……

noon.

Near the gates of the Holy Magic Academy, Celia slowly descended on her flying broom.

"Do you want to leave the school?"

She asked Ross.

"Need not."

Ross gave her a route that went in circles.

"Just run a loop along this route; you don't need to go into the Forbidden Forest."

"it is good."

If the puppet could stay too far from its controller, otherwise the connection would be broken, Ross would have wanted to investigate it himself.

The distance between the puppet and its controller depends on the controller's mental strength and control.

Given Celia's mental strength, her theoretical maximum range is 1000 meters, but if she were to control it, she would likely be unable to maintain stable control after about 100 meters.

Of course, the puppet's runes include runes to prevent disconnection. If it moves a certain distance away, the puppet's heart will sense the weakening connection and send a warning to the controller, then it will try to return the way it came.

If all attempts fail, it will try to send a planetarium signal, then enter a dormant state, waiting for the operator to wake it up.

If a "home" setting is configured, the puppet will attempt to return home.

Ross tried to control the puppet to move away from Celia, but eventually found that the distance between the puppet and Celia did not affect his detection range, only the puppet's detection range. His mental detection range remained unchanged, still centered on Celia.

As Celia flew around the Holy Magic Academy, Ross unleashed his full mental power, scanning the surroundings again and again.

Although affected by the strength of Celia's mental power, the scanned area was relatively small.

"I wonder if we can find any clues within a few hundred meters of the school..."

Ross couldn't guarantee it either.

But if there are any traces, he can guarantee that he will be able to find them.

He had seen the heretics of the Deep Sea Aid Society when Celia led them to the Holy Court, and knew of their unique traces.

According to the current Holy Court, that's called 'contamination,' while according to Ross, it's a special magic from the abyss.

The Abyss also exists in this world, but it is a paradise for losers. When I played the game, the Abyss was just a mid-game crisis, and I never survived to the late game.

"Will the Deep Sea Aid Association really dare to take action around the school?" Celia also raised her doubts.

"That depends on the audacity of the Deep Sea Aid Society. If they have grand ambitions, they might even bomb the Holy Court headquarters, let alone the school."

Of course, whether it will actually explode is another matter.

"Bomb the Holy Court headquarters? Impossible..."

"Nothing is impossible."

Since they are all heretics who believe in evil gods, and dare not believe in the real evil gods but only in the evil gods they created, it is not surprising that they do anything.

"Huh? Celia?"

While talking to Ross, Celia suddenly heard someone calling her name.

She turned her head and saw Elena and some school teachers standing by the school wall.

"Good afternoon, Professor Elena."

"What are you doing here?" Elena asked as she flew over on her flying broom.

"I just finished eating, took a walk, and practiced flying."

"Really?" Elena looked Celia up and down. She looked down and saw the puppet following her below, and exclaimed in surprise, "You made the puppet?"

Celia nodded, and said shyly, "Yes, I just made it yesterday."

Elena didn't have class this morning, so she didn't know that Celia had made the magic puppet.

Upon seeing it, she immediately became very interested, landed next to the puppet, and began to observe it carefully.

"Ok?"

She examined the puppet closely.

what happened?

Why did I feel like that puppet just glanced at me?

Elena was puzzled, and she reached out to touch the puppet's body.

Huh? The puppet seems quite dissatisfied?

Illusion?

The thought flashed through Elena's mind, but she was quickly drawn to the patterns on the puppet's body.

These runes look like basic runes, but they are more profound than basic magic runes, with higher efficiency in the transmission and utilization of magic power, and simpler in complexity.

Elena suddenly looked up. "Celia, the runes on this puppet... did you carve them?"

"Yes, I learned these runes from books. Is there a problem?"

"you sure?"

"...Yes, I've just made some minor...modifications."

Chapter 25 Summoning Survey

The runes that Celia engraved on the puppet were derived from the basic runes, with slight modifications to simplify some of the complex parts and increase the strength of the runes.

Back when Celia was imprinting, Ross was already complaining that the past thousand years of development had gone to waste, and that it hadn't even developed as fast as the few hundred years he spent playing games—back then, everything had developed except for the fact that they hadn't yet entered interstellar space.

As a result, a thousand years later, everything went back to normal, even the basic runes were decades behind.

This is outrageous.

It's hard to imagine what the gods did after ending the age of calamity.

“Just tell me that you thought these were the changes that should be made, so you changed them,” Ross told Celia in response to Elena’s question.

He added, "You can also just say you got it from an evil god."

After replying to Elena, Celia lowered her head somewhat guiltily.

At the same time, she was also a little uneasy: "Professor Elena, could it be... that I made a mistake?"

This was, after all, something belonging to an evil god, and since it was right there in her mind, she dared not question it.

And considering how we've spent time together...

Celia felt that this evil god had no airs of a deity at all; he was approachable and, at most, a strict mentor.

So far, we haven't found any behavior from the other party that matches what pagans call an evil god—no, some evil gods described by pagans are actually embodiments of truth, goodness, and beauty, so it seems to fit that description somewhat.

I wonder why the Evil God cares about the Deep Sea Aid Association...

"That's not wrong, but after your modifications, these runes have been made less redundant, and the efficiency of magic circulation seems to have improved..."

Elena's eyes lit up.

"This improved set of basic runes might be able to be included in the 'Basic Runes' book! Celia, I want to confirm again, did you make these improvements?"

Celia didn't want to nod, but Ross had already used his mental power to press her head down twice.

"Quickly admit that you did it."

Ross's voice echoed in her mind. Celia didn't know what he wanted to do, only that if she didn't speak, he might control her to say it...

“Yes.” Celia lowered her head slightly. “It was modified based on clues and inspiration I found in the historical documents I was researching.”

"This is a huge change! Celia, so you're a natural runemaster! Come on, let's go see the headmaster!"

Elena was about to pull Celia away when the other teachers quickly stopped her: "Elena, the principal isn't at school. He's gone to deal with the Crimson Spring. We have a mission to complete right now."

"Oh, right, it's my fault for being in such a hurry."

Elena patted Celia on the shoulder. "Celia, go back and organize your simplified materials. These are important materials for publishing papers. Don't lose them. When the principal comes back, I'll take you to see him."

"Oh well."

"Don't leave the school during this period, and don't get too close to uninhabited areas."

"Understood, Instructor Elena."

"Well, go back."

"Goodbye, Mentor Elena."

Celia said goodbye to Elena and walked towards the school's teaching area.

But after walking for a short while, Ross said, "Go to the right, do as I say, go around to the edge of the Forbidden Forest, to the east."

Celia turned and walked in the direction Ross pointed, asking as she did so, "Have you found any traces of Deepsea Aid over there?"

"It's possible. I heard your teacher mention that direction, and he's on his way there now."

The location Ross gave us wasn't far from here, and Celia arrived in no time.

This is the eastern part of the activity area, not yet in the forbidden forest area, a place where students occasionally come to take a walk or practice meditation.

Celia found a place to sit down. Seeing that Ross didn't say anything and seemed to be probing, she focused her mental energy, summoned the Mage's Hand, and used the surrounding leaves to practice the Mage's Hand technique.

After a short while, Ross said, "Don't move around here, I'm going over there."

"Ok."

Hilia, engrossed in practicing the Mage's Hand technique, simply responded with a sound.

Ross controlled the puppet to leave Celia, circled around the grove, and entered the forbidden forest.

Before long, the connection between the puppet and Celia weakened, but thankfully, it was still within Ross's sensing range.

In extreme circumstances, he can transform his mental energy into a wisp and control the puppet to move at least one kilometer away from Celia without injuring her, while also possessing a certain degree of detection ability.

Silently venturing deeper into the jungle, Ross soon arrived at his destination.

This was a cleared-out area where Elena and several teachers were kneeling, investigating something.

Austin, the Forbidden Forest Guardian, was also there.

After examining the ground carefully for a moment, Elena said solemnly, "There are traces of pollution, but they are very slight. The Deep Sea Aid Society has cleaned up all the traces, so it's hard to tell what they were doing."

Austin pondered for a moment, “Judging from the behavior of the Deep Sea Assistance Association, they may be conducting astronomical positioning.”

One tutor exclaimed in surprise, "Location? Are they trying to summon a sea monster from the deep sea again, and this time they're summoning it to our school?"

Elena shook her head. "Unlikely. This might just be a distraction, to make us focus on the school investigation while they continue their clandestine rituals."

Austin asked, "How's it going with the principal?"

"News came from over there that the Crimson Spring is being purified, but they were too late. There was no trace of the heretics in that area; they had already completed their ritual."

"Search again to see if there are any such star-positioning arrays inside or outside the school, and then report back to me. If this is just a trick to confuse us, inform the Holy Court and let the Holy Court take over."

“Yes, Professor Austin.”

"..."

Not long after, the group left one after another.

After waiting a moment, Ross approached the open space where the astrological positioning array Austin had mentioned was located, investigated it briefly, and then shook his head.

"What star-positioning array? This is clearly a surveying magic array for summoning abyssal monsters, but it has been abandoned, which means this is not the best place to summon abyssal monsters."

Ross dug up some soil containing "contamination," tidied up the traces, and left quietly.

When they arrived next to Celia, the girl was still playing with leaves.

Numerous leaves were swept up by her mage's hand and flew through the air.

"Celia, it's time to go to class."
