The Wizard's Infinite Journey

Chapter 93 Badges and Branding

"It's here."

After walking for seven or eight days, Yamu and his party finally stopped.

Now they came to a remote place.

It can be seen that this place used to be a fairly prosperous city, but now it is also in ruins.

There is a village in the surrounding area, and there are also houses in blocks.

It's just that no one lives there anymore.

All the way forward, occasionally, Yamu can still see the corpses in it from the side of the road.

"This used to be a village where many people lived. I came here when I was young."

Winnie said, "Unfortunately, in the catastrophe ten years ago, the people sent by the Black Emperor ransacked this place, and everyone was killed."

"This place has become a ruin."

Yamu nodded, then turned to look at Emiya aside: "Emilia, do you still have any impression?"

"It seems. There are some."

Emiya stood aside, looking at the scene in front of her with a dazed expression.

Since entering this place, her expression has changed, and she is no longer as lazy and calm as before.

She stood there for a while, then slowly walked forward, towards a certain angle.

Then, they came to a house.

It was a not tall house, compared with other abandoned houses around, it looked very ordinary, without any special features.

There was a piece of ruins on the side, and the broken buildings buried it and collapsed.

Emiya stood here in a daze for a long time, then looked at the ruins.

Then, she went straight forward and dug there.

"Ok?"

The girl's movements caught Amu's attention.

But she didn't care, she just muttered to herself: "There's something under here."

"Is there something down here?"

Yamu turned to look at Winnie, and threw him a handful of silver coins: "Go and find some people, let's dig together."

Winnie nodded and turned around quickly.

Although there are ruins nearby, there are also people there.

It's just that there are many fewer people than other places.

After walking for a while, Winnie called out to a few scavengers nearby, asking them to come over with tools and dig towards this place together.

A few people act together, and the efficiency is very high.

About half an hour later, the ruins were cleared out.

The appearance of a corpse was revealed.

It should be the corpse of a woman, and the age at the time of death should not be too old.

Judging from the clothes she was wearing, this should be an ordinary woman with no noble status.

Emiya stood where she was, looking at the woman's corpse, but was in a daze.

"Mother."

She muttered to herself, as if thinking of something, with tears in her eyes.

"It's a curse"

The fearful voices of the scavengers came.

They pointed to the woman's skeleton, pointing to her head, with fear written all over her face.

Yamu couldn't help but stare at the past.

There, a black mark appeared, which looked very conspicuous.

"This is the curse of the Black Emperor!"

Winnie's voice was also a little surprised: "This person should have been killed by the Black Emperor himself, but why?"

Only those killed by the Black Emperor himself will leave this mark.

But judging from the corpse, the corpse should have been an ordinary woman.

Why would such a person be killed by an existence like the Black Emperor himself?
Yamu stood aside, not caring about the so-called imprint.

At this moment, all his sights have been attracted by something above the corpse.

On the left hand of the corpse, a badge was quietly held by him.

It can be seen that this badge should be something very important to a woman, so that even if it died, it did not let go, and it has been firmly grasped in the hand.

As far as Yamu was concerned, when the badge appeared, some kind of throbbing inexplicably appeared in his body.

That is the throbbing of the root, but it is not the fluctuation when the energy is sensed, but another kind of fluctuation.

Yamu felt it carefully.

This throbbing was somewhat similar to the feeling he had when he saw the divinity and transformed it, but it was different.

At least it's not that strong, and it's much milder than divinity.

But no matter what, this is also an item that can make the root respond.

"Help me get that thing here."

He looked at the scavengers on the side and directed.

But the scavengers beside him didn't move. Instead, they started to retreat one by one, with a look of deep fear on their faces.

It's like that thing is very dangerous.

Of course, in the minds of these people, it may be true.

Curses, this is not a good thing.

Yamu was also afraid of the possible curse, so he wanted others to do it.

"Let me do it."

Winnie said, "Old man, I am quite old, so I don't care about any curses."

He took a step forward to step forward, but was led by someone.

Emiya stepped forward, approached the corpse, and picked up the badge on the corpse.

This scene shocked everyone including Yamu.

Fortunately, nothing special happened in the end.

The power of the curse did not spread.

Emiya seems to be fine.

This made Yamu heave a sigh of relief.

He put the badge in the palm of his hand and looked at it carefully.

Under the faint sunlight, the appearance of this badge appeared.

The badge is purple. I don't know what material it is made of. It looks like some kind of metal.

Looking at it from the bright side, one can feel the ancientness and dilapidation of this badge, as if it has experienced a long time, and it has a trace of years of precipitation.

At the moment Yamu held the badge, the roots in his body were also beating.

"Find the residual imprint and start identification."

[Brand: Nameless Badge]

【Integrity: Broken.】

[Assimilation can be obtained: inheritance of divine arts, inheritance of potions.]

"Is it assimilated?"

At this moment, Yamu's mind was shocked.

"Is it still possible?"

He was a little unexpected.

He has experienced the root ability in the past.

However, what he didn't expect was that such ability still exists.

Can assimilating the brand allow him to obtain the skills and inheritance that exist in the brand?
He looked at the four, and finally moved immediately, but put away the badge.

They are still outside at the moment.

If the assimilation brand makes some noise, there may be some troubles at that time.

To avoid trouble, wait until you are in a safe environment.

In front of him, Emiya stood quietly.

She stood there and made various movements, as if she was performing some mysterious and unique ritual.

Amu's attention was diverted again.

"The breath of divine power!"

Looking at Emiya's actions, he was a little surprised.

For the power of divine power, his induction will not be wrong.

On Emiya's body, the breath of divine power at this moment is very obvious.

And the quality of that divine power was stronger than any priest Amu had ever seen.

Even if it was the High Priest of the Beast Church that he had seen the last time he entered the world of the gods, his divine power was not as good as what Emiya showed at this moment.

Although there is no divine power, just the breath of divine power escaping is enough to shock many people.

but why?
Amu was sure that Emilia was not a priest herself.

That being the case, why does she have such high-intensity divine power?

What is the reason for this?

Yamu recalled the time when he first met Emiya.

Perhaps, the reason why Emiya was hunted down by the Black Emperor's black-armored knights at that time was precisely because of her uniqueness.

Standing in place for a long time, the three finally left the place.

Yamu asked Winy to go out to find someone to bury Emiya's mother's body, while he hid in the room.

At this time, he took out the badge he had obtained earlier.

The purple badge is simple and shabby, and it still looks like it did during the day.

A familiar breath flowed out.

But this time, Yamu didn't hesitate at all.

"assimilation!"

The golden brilliance flashed, and as the thought skipped, Yamu could feel that something was being extracted from the badge in front of him and slowly entered his body.
