The weapons I forge are absolutely flawless.

It just goes to show that no one is perfect. Who would have thought that Felix would be a "naturally hypnotized being"?

"Alright, since the experiments are almost done, I have something to do, so I'll go now—"

Wiener was just about to leave.

"Wait a minute, Vena? Is there something you've forgotten?" Felix keenly sensed Vena's intention to slip away.

“The stove isn’t out, the door isn’t closed, I can get back,” Viner said seriously.

"It's alright, it's alright, I can take care of these little things for you." Felix looked at Vena with a kind expression. "You've been watching the show for so long, isn't it time for you?"

"Ugh!" Seeing that her thoughts had been exposed, Vena hurriedly looked at Lisette with pleading eyes, hoping that the other party could understand her meaning and let her off the hook.

Lisette did indeed understand what was in Venus's eyes.

"Don't worry, I have plenty of spell slots left, enough to give you a special training session too," Listy said expressionlessly.

Chapter 152 Wiener's attempt to sabotage himself

The offensive and defensive dynamics are different.

"Don't try to deny it! Don't worry, I won't laugh at you." Felix blocked the doorway, worried that Vena would run away.

Actually, Wiener wasn't against this kind of special training; he just didn't want to be trained in front of Felix.

If he does something that damages his image during the test, he'll be ridiculed by Felix for a long time.

The ability to maintain one's true self within the illusion woven by the Evil Eye is largely due to the experience of being absorbed into the spiritual world by the Dull Blade.

Thanks to those two experiences, Wiener was able to recognize his own circumstances.

Spells like the Maniacal Laughter are naturally less difficult to create than the environment woven by the Evil Eye, but they are more targeted.

Even if Felix's own reasons were involved, Listy, who had already broken through to the fourth rank, could be controlled for more than ten seconds with just one Human Immobilization Spell.

Vina, who hasn't even broken through to the third tier, will only be more vulnerable. After all, Vina, unarmed, can't even receive Gangolaf's blessing.

This left Viner lacking confidence that he wouldn't make a fool of himself. But judging from their enthusiastic expressions, he figured he couldn't escape it.

"Fine, bring it on, I'll take whatever comes my way."

When Wiener resigned himself to his fate, he would usually close his eyes.

This seemingly ostrich-like act of burying its head in the ground and giving up completely is actually not as bad as it seems.

Closing off your visual senses can actually reduce external distractions and help you focus your attention to some extent.

"it is good."

Seeing that Venus was ready, Listi pointed at Venus.

"..."

Felix, who had experience with this, knew that this meant a spell had already been cast.

He crept up to Wiener, holding a ballpoint pen he had stolen from the library.

Some people say they won't laugh, but in reality, they've already prepared the pens for graffiti, just waiting to retaliate.

Just as the pen tip was about to touch Wiener's forehead, Wiener suddenly opened his eyes.

"Is it ready yet?"

"Wow!"

Startled, Felix quickly hid the graffiti pen behind his back.

"...Not yet, please wait a moment."

Listy was also secretly surprised.

Felix has already provided a solution to Tasha's Laughter spell, which is in the first ring.

Replicating a slap wouldn't be difficult for Wiener.

So she skipped Tasha's Laughter spell.

Fourth-order versus second-order, the advantage lies with Listi.

The second-ring immobilization technique, which should have been easily countered, had no effect whatsoever.

Was it good luck for Wiener, or did he make a mistake?

Listy fell into deep thought.

"Then let me know when you're done. Felix, what did you just hide behind your back?"

Mr. Wiener is not that blind.

"No, you must have seen wrong!" Felix exclaimed, his expression slightly flustered. He tried to deny it while backing away.

"Don't move." Viner caught up with Felix in one stride and easily snatched the pen from his hand.

Felix intended to dodge, but his movements became inexplicably stiff, as if he were deliberately handing the pen to Wiener.

"You're really not moving anymore. Let me draw one for you."

Wiener picked up his brush and sketched a cute little turtle on Felix's smooth forehead.

When he began to admire his own painting, Felix seemed to regain his mobility, hurriedly wiping the graffiti on his forehead with his hands and strongly protesting.

"Why me again!"

"I really didn't mean it..."

Listi, who caused this phenomenon, said somewhat guiltily.

To verify whether the problem lay with her, she took advantage of the moment when Venus and Felix were entangled and cast a human immobilization spell on both of them.

Felix was hit again, while Wiener was unaffected.

“I’ve tried twice, and the human immobilization spell doesn’t work on him. Vena, how did you do that?” Listi asked curiously.

“I didn’t feel anything at all?” Viner spread her hands, her face full of innocence.

“That shows his heart is as black as the devil’s; he’s not human at all!” Felix said grimly from the side.

He tried his best, but he couldn't wipe the graffiti off his forehead.

“It’s not that simple,” Listi shook her head.

The "Human Immobilization Spell" should more accurately be called the "Humanoid Creature Immobilization Spell." Theoretically, it should work even on a demon as long as it maintains a human form.

"Do you have some kind of magical item on you that can resist spells?" Listy guessed.

After all, the Thief's Armor's magic resistance left a deep impression on Listi.

"Well, Venus, you cheated!" Lisette's question ignited Felix's anger.

“No, if I had, I would have said so beforehand,” Viner denied.

"I won't listen, Your Honor! I demand a body search of Wiener!"

Felix looked at Listy, hoping to get her support.

Listy simply shook her head and said, "I believe Venere wouldn't lie."

"Perhaps it's because Vena's constitution is somewhat special?"

“See? That’s the difference between you and Lisette,” Vena said earnestly, patting Felix on the shoulder.

“So I’ve decided to try a different spell.” Lisette hadn’t given up yet.

“Indeed, there is a difference,” Felix sneered.

"...May I ask what kind of spell it is?" Vena asked nervously.

“Fifth Ring Bewitching Spell, Control Spell,” Lisette replied.

The Evil Eye used this control technique on Felix.

By leaping from second-circle spells to fifth-circle spells in an instant, Lysette was clearly serious.

Thinking of this, Viña broke out in a cold sweat.

"Would it be necessary to use such an exaggerated fifth-circle spell to deal with me?"

The purpose of this special training was to teach him and Felix how to deal with bewitching spells cast by spellcasters of the same skill level.

An opponent who can start with a fifth-circle spell is clearly an existence beyond the level of the standard.

To put it bluntly, an enemy with that kind of power wouldn't need to waste their energy using bewitching spells; a few simple energy-shaping spells would be enough to leave Vener completely bewildered.

"Really? This is the highest level of bewitching spell I can cast. If it still doesn't work on Vena, then we'll have to ask someone else to take a look."

Lisette's gaze toward Vina was now that of someone staring intently at a research subject.

He didn't feel there was anything wrong with being able to use fifth-order spells even though he had just broken through to the fourth rank.

"What's that saying again? You have to be willing to sacrifice yourself for the experiment."

This time it was Felix's turn to pat Wiener on the shoulder.

He knew all too well how unbearable it was to be controlled by a domination spell.

Seeing that there was now an opportunity for Wiener to experience what it felt like, Felix was gloating.

"Of course I'm willing to sacrifice myself for the experiment!" Wiener stubbornly insisted.

“I think, Lisette, you’ve just advanced, and your cultivation level is still unstable. There’s no need to risk casting spells beyond your level at this time. How about we wait for another opportunity to try?”

Wiener's statement is not without merit.

Casting spells beyond one's level is inherently extremely risky, with a low success rate and a high risk of backlash.

If it's a matter of having to fight desperately, that's one thing, but it's just an experimental training session, so there's no need to push yourself so hard.

"But you solved the biggest risk, Wiener."

"When?"

"When you gave this to me."

Lisette took out the mercury sword that Vina had given her from her bosom.

If this is used as a medium, there is indeed no need to worry about the risk of backlash.

Wiener finally understood what it meant to lift a rock only to drop it on one's own foot.

Chapter 153 Sword Heart Clarity

The experiment is still ongoing.

"Left hand," Lisette commanded calmly and clearly.

Without the slightest hesitation, Wiener obediently extended his left hand.

"Right hand." Lisette pointed sharply to the other side.

Wiener reacted quickly and offered his right hand as well.

"Squat down, stand up, squat down."

Listy issued several commands in succession, and Vina carried them out one by one.

But Lisette was not satisfied. Instead, she sighed and said with a hint of disappointment in her voice, "Vina, do you think it's funny to tease me?"

“…” Wiener remained silent.

"Stop pretending, I didn't cast any control spells at all," Listy revealed the truth.

"You should have said so earlier, really." Realizing she had been found out, Viner stood up with a wry smile.

“I was just kidding.” Lisette’s eyes grew even colder.

She was just trying to trick him, and Vina fell for it.

“...Listy, you are so despicable.” Vena felt extremely heartbroken.

“Isn’t it the guy who betrayed the girl’s innocent trust who is more despicable?” Lisette retorted.

“Exactly, exactly,” Felix chimed in from the side.

"So you really didn't feel anything? Not even the fifth-ring control technique?"
