Spell Return: The Wheel of Time

Chapter 311 Seven Emotions and Six Desires
"The Snow Girl... is she that cursed spirit?"

Shen Yuanyi smiled and nodded to indicate that it was correct. This cursed spirit was discovered not long ago. Because of its strength far beyond the ordinary special grade and a certain degree of restraint on magicians, its detailed information was even confirmed by Xia Youjie who took on this task later.

Afterwards, this cursed spirit was regarded as the "protagonist" of the planned exchange meeting. Shen Yuanyi captured it intact and placed it in the Tokyo Curse High area.

Therefore, the specific information of this cursed spirit is currently unknown to other people, and there is almost no possibility of leakage. As for the possibility that Shen Yuanyi himself will leak the information...all we can say is that it is meaningless to doubt it.

"They look a lot like the snow woman in folklore. Can this kind of elemental cursed spirit be their opponent? Toudou and your guy Kinji Hyō, they are both guys who can exorcise special-grade cursed spirits on their own, right? And there's also him..."

The singer asked doubtfully, but she didn't actually have much doubt about Shen Yuanyi in her heart. After all, the latter was one of the very few magicians she could completely trust.

The geisha simply wanted to know the answer behind this, and wanted to figure out what ability this cursed spirit had to exist as a 'boss' that threatened these students. As she said, the existence of Todou and Kinji Hyō determined that this cursed spirit would not be that simple, not to mention the existence of Yuta Otsutsuka.

Otsutsuki's technique was no longer a secret, because this kind of technique would be strictly suppressed if the information was not leaked, and would usually be reported to the general directorate and recorded, unless the person himself strongly requested it, such as Kujuku Yuki.

To be honest, it is impossible to hide Otsutsuki's techniques. As long as he has used two or more different techniques, and the techniques are exactly the same as those of the sorcerers he has come into contact with, then anyone can roughly guess the nature of his techniques.

After Shen Yuanyi consulted with Otsutsuki himself, he uploaded the general information of his technique into the archives. However, this level of information is not accessible to everyone. In theory, except for a few special-grade ones like them, only the high-level people in the world of sorcery can read this kind of information.

It just so happened that many people present had this authority, and those who didn't understand it almost understood it after seeing Otsutsuki display the power of the technique. Of course, some were amazed, but that was all they could say. After all, the three guys present were more outrageous than each other.

"Ha ha……"

When the singer heard the voice, her face turned sour, because as soon as the owner of the voice opened his mouth, she knew that no ivory would come out of that mouth.

"Uta, how come you are as senile as old man Leyan Temple? Whether it is a cursed spirit or a sorcerer, we cannot just judge them by their appearance. Although this cursed spirit created snow and low temperatures, it does not mean that it is a pure elemental cursed spirit."

With just one sentence, he launched an AOE attack on two people and mocked the singer's age (which she could read out). Instantly, the word "angry" appeared on her face, and the ceramic teacup at her hand flew out of her hand and went straight to Gojo Satoru's smiling face.

Without a doubt, this attack, which was not even an attack at all, was immediately blocked by [No Bottom Line]. The teacup fell to the ground and shattered, spilling the tea inside onto the ground.

"All right……"

Shen Yuanyi interrupted the 'harmonious interaction' between the two with a smile. As he stretched out his hand, the teacup that should have shattered on the ground was now intact in the air and held in his hand. The broken cup was rounded again and the spilled water was collected again.

The reason why the cup is not returned to the singer is that doing so will only provide the singer with a certain degree of "infinite ammunition".

"Humph, do you think I didn't see that? The snowflakes created by the cursed spirit are all illusions. Dongtang is usually the most enthusiastic and excited about this kind of situation, but now he is calm as if he doesn't exist. The strength of others seems to have declined as well. This is the real power of the cursed spirit..."

Shen Yuanyi didn't wait for the two to start arguing again. He clapped his hands and smiled as he gave the answer.

"mood!"

Aoi Todou shouted out loud, telling everyone the answer he came up with after careful thinking with his (self-proclaimed) IQ of 530000.

That strange 'love', the inexplicably disappeared fighting spirit... there is only one possibility: the spell of this cursed spirit has affected their emotions!
According to legend, the so-called Snow Girl has a human-like appearance, extremely beautiful and stunning. A man who meets the Snow Girl and is seduced by her will lose his soul and turn into an "ice sculpture" under her "kiss."

Although the special-grade imaginary vengeful spirits are not exactly the same as the myths and legends related to them, they are always inexplicably related from some strange angles. If the spell of this cursed spirit is to control emotions, then the current situation and legends seem to be explainable.

This cursed spirit... or snow girl, will instinctively use magic to influence the enemy's favorability towards her, and if there is not enough resistance, this favorability will soon turn into blind, "love" at all costs.

Those snowflakes and low temperatures should be the external manifestations of the negative emotions that he controls. For people, words such as disheartened and disheartened are just a description. In extreme grief or other emotions, the "cold" that appears is just an illusion that the mind is projected onto the body.

But for the incredible power of cursed spirits and spells, this is not an illusion. The snow girl's spell materializes these negative emotions into a force that can affect the world, so there is this "illusion" of low temperature.

As for the falling snow and frost flowers, it is not accurate to say that they are completely illusory. At least the latter as an extension are actually condensed from water in the real world, and the temperature drop around them is not completely false.

If an ordinary person did not consider the possibility of being killed by the Snow Girl, he would really be frozen to death in this situation.

The reason why everyone has a strange "love" for the Snow Girl and their loss of fighting spirit is because of this. It's not because of how beautiful her face is. If it was just pure beauty, then as long as the other party was a cursed spirit, none of the twelve people would be able to stop themselves from doing it.

This is the sorcerer's principle and instinct. No matter how harmless the cursed spirit looks, no matter what the other party looks like, they can kill that face with their own hands without hesitation.

Therefore, this abnormal situation could only be caused by the influence of the curse. After hearing Dongtang's reminder, everyone who had already had their own guesses about this immediately figured it out. However, just understanding the essence of the opponent's technique would not gain any advantage in the current battle.

The reason is simple, it is that this technique has too great an impact on the sorcerer or the human being.

Although it does not control emotions in an absolute sense, no one has really fallen in love with the Snow Girl before, and Toudou has not completely lost his fighting spirit, but this level of influence has already greatly hindered everyone's strength.

Spellcasters rely on the conversion process of emotion - spell power - spell to fight, and now emotions, one of the sources, are controlled by the enemy, which means that their spell power cannot be fully utilized in the process of fighting against them. After losing the supply from emotions, the longer this battle drags on, the closer it will be to despair!

Like a snowball, their emotions were suppressed, their cursed energy became less and less, and they became less and less able to resist the Snow Woman's spells... In the end, I'm afraid they would lose all their emotional fluctuations and become puppets that were no different from corpses.

Find out the specific effect of her technique, and then end it quickly!

After relaying this conjecture to others, Toudou clapped his hands again and activated the spell, exchanging his position with a cannonball fired by Mechanical Marujin, thus avoiding a range spell attack from the Snow Woman.

The mechanical pill controlled by Kokichi is very special. It is based on man-made objects, but this kind of thing cannot be directly controlled by the technique. Kokichi also needs to bury a similar imprint created by the technique in the puppet's body, just like the strings that control a puppet. Hence the name [Puppet Control].

Toudou's [Unjust Game] can only exchange positions with beings that possess cursed power. Most people have cursed power, but this is not the case with inanimate objects. If it is an ordinary artillery shell, bullet, or something like that, Toudou cannot exchange positions with them.

But this is an attack shell that is an integrated mechanical pill and its body. There is a little bit of cursed power in its composition, which enables Toudou to complete the effect of the ritual with it.

The attack of the Snow Woman detonated the shells fired by the Mechanical Maru, and at this time, Kinji Hyō leaped out at the right time. If he wanted to use a frontal attack to test the approximate range of the Snow Woman's technique, then he would be the most suitable candidate.

"Expand the field and kill the fighters!"

The real world environment was instantly changed, turning into a station that could not possibly appear here. The domain was activated, and the gamble between Hyōjinji and himself began.

“This feeling is damn good!”

Hyō Kinji was also very "annoyed" by this situation. His passion for his own technique was reduced to a small splash because of the Yuki Onna's technique. As a result, he didn't even have any big emotional changes when he expanded the field. Even his "annoyance" was what his reason told him he should have.

If there is no passion, no tension and excitement between winning and losing, then what is the meaning of all this? This cursed spirit really deserves death...

After Hyō Kinji unfolded his territory, Toudou understood what he had to do without him saying much: drag it into Hyō Kinji's territory to activate the final effect and bring it that terrifying buff effect.

"Yi Gu!"

With a light shout, Toudou suddenly changed direction and ran towards Otsukoshi. The latter naturally understood what he meant, and then rushed towards him as well, rapidly shortening the distance between them.

Snapped--

Amid the crisp applause, Dongtang's figure suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by the pure white and beautiful figure of the Snow Girl, who seemed to be stunned for a moment because of the sudden change in spatial position.

But Otsutsuki, who was prepared, did not freeze in his tracks. He had already condensed his cursed power and punched Toudou hard, and the fist hit the perfectly carved face of the Snow Woman the next moment.

After all, it was still a cursed spirit. The Snow Girl, whose head was crooked by the punch, straightened her body the next moment, raised her hand and stabbed with a magic spell that manifested as ice and snow.

Snapped--

This time, it was Otsutsuki who clapped his hands and launched the [Unjust Game] he imitated, and the targets of the exchange were himself and the Snow Girl.

Without any sound or abnormality, the attack from the Snow Girl flew out and pierced through her body from the back, but this attack did not seem to cause any harm to its owner, it just passed through like a phantom.

"Is it because she has no emotions?"

The Snow Girl doesn't seem to have the kind of human wisdom and emotions that many special-grade cursed spirits have. Maybe this is because she is immune to herself? But it seems that it is not completely unaffected.

Otsutsuki caught a slight vibration on the body of the Snow Girl who was so close to him. After all, the illusory magic attack that just came out of the other party's hand also contained cursed power, so it would not cause no damage at all.

But it is impossible to purify the Snow Girl using this method...

Otsutsuki was thinking at the same time. This was the most important point in the magic battle taught by Shen Genichi, and that was to keep thinking.

Think about the enemy's weakness and how to use it to defeat the enemy, think about your own weakness so that you won't be caught by the enemy, or how to make a trap to lure the enemy into it...

Only by constant thinking can there be hope of narrowing the gap between spells, defeating the strong with the weak, and turning the tables in desperate situations... This is because sorcerers have wisdom that most curses cannot possess!
Snapped--

Once again, the positions were changed, and the target was himself and Dongtang. Dongtang, who was well prepared, once again felt suppressed joy for this tacit understanding, and then launched a violent attack on the Snow Girl.

"Want to extinguish my 'passion'? No way!"
