Fairy's Chess Game

Chapter 115 Tea Talk Between Vampires and Demons

After coming to the living room, maybe he felt bored. After staying for a while, the cat decisively left the room and returned to the roof to bask in the sun.

Leaving Mirajane to face High Berrien alone.Facing the leading figure in the magic world, even Mirajane is inevitably a little nervous.And she was still worried about the situation at Woz, so she acted more absent-minded.

"Miss Strauss, don't worry. You should know Mr. Frenner's ability better than I do. I believe that learning a spell is not difficult for him." Heiberian said.

Mirajane nodded: "Yes, I know this very well. However, his state is a bit bad now."

"Is it because of the previous war? I have also received detailed information. It was indeed the biggest war in half a century. The performance of Fairy Tail is excellent." Heiberian did not hesitate Praise, "As expected of the guild created by Mebis!"

Mirajane was holding the teacup in her mind. Everyone in the guild did a great job, but what about herself?
Nothing!The self-blame that had been intentionally ignored by the girl came to mind again.Kong has the title of an S-level wizard, but has not made a contribution that matches it. What is the meaning of existence for such a self?
In the war, even his younger brother Eluffman broke through the shadow in his heart, successfully liberated the strongest force, and achieved great results.And what about myself?

She couldn't help clenching the cup in her hand.Woz is currently working upstairs to improve his strength, even though he is already that strong!Because Woz will face more powerful enemies and more intense battles in the future, not only him, but the guild will probably continue to meet more difficult challenges.How long can I hold the title of S-rank mage empty-handed?Everyone is moving forward, only myself, still immersed in the pain of the past and unable to extricate himself.

It's impossible to go on like this!Mirajane told herself, I can't go on like this, I must recover my strength and become stronger!Otherwise, you won't even be qualified to be his chess piece if you follow his footsteps!
Heiberian watched the girl sinking into thought from the side, and his experience of hundreds of years naturally allowed him to see the girl's troubles.

"Miss Strauss, I have also heard about your deeds. The name of the devil is also powerful."

Mirajane smiled wryly: "That's just a thing of the past..."

Heiberian smiled lightly, but he stopped arguing and started another topic instead.

"Do you know what magic I'm best at? Oh, of course it's blood magic. I mean what kind of blood magic it looks like... Let me tell you, it's the blood sword. It's very simple. The blood condensed into the shape of a sword, and then rushed up to fight with swordsmanship." As if thinking of something funny, he couldn't help laughing again, "I think at the beginning, in order to cooperate with my magic, I spent a special I have practiced swordsmanship for 20 years. So don’t look at me as old, but when it comes to swordsmanship, there are not many people in this world who dare to say that they are truly better than me. Even the first goose in Broken Wall City is my descendant.”

It's hard to imagine that for a Four Heavenly Kings in the magic world, the most powerful magic in the early years was just using magic to make a sword, and the most powerful means of combat turned out to be attacking with a sword!

Mirajane was immediately surprised, not everyone can be like Erza, who is a mage but has mastered martial arts.Erza also determines her fighting style because of her magic.And Heyberian's blood magic is obviously not suitable for melee combat.In those 20 years, with his talent and aptitude, he specialized in the in-depth development and research of blood magic, and the achievements he can achieve must be far more than practicing any swordsmanship!
"Is it strange? Because fencing was popular among the nobles of the kingdom at that time, I also think it's cool to fight with a sword!" Heiberian smiled willfully, and said that he scratched his fingernails on his palm, cutting a wound, and blood gushed out. It came out, condensed but not scattered, and gradually turned into a slender blood-colored sword.The body of the sword seems to be carved from pure agate, and it is also carefully painted with gorgeous patterns. The style is exquisite and luxurious, full of popular elements of aristocrats a hundred years ago.

When Heiberian flipped his wrist, a brilliant sword flower appeared, which showed his profound skills in using swords.

"Why did you choose this magic?" Mirajane couldn't help asking.

"I said it because he's handsome enough!" Heiberian's answer made people speechless. Is he really a century-old nobleman?So much about appearance?
"Because only magic that is handsome enough and good-looking can dispel people's negative impression of my blood magic." The old noble put away the blood sword and said leisurely, "Such a simple and direct magic effect, and such an upright fighting style, Such a guy can't possibly be an evil mage—what I'm looking for is just the view of the world. After all, because of blood magic, our Heyberian family is always regarded as a vampire. When I was young, as the only descendant of my family, I wanted to change people's stereotypes, so I chose such a path that was definitely not suitable for a mage."

"Are you trying to comfort me?" Mirajane asked.

"Consolation? Of course not. I'm admonishing. Even if I spend 20 years honing my sword skills, I still can't change the eyes of the world. Those who fear me are still afraid, those who hate me are still disgusted, and the ignorant will always be ignorant. But when My strength continued to improve and become stronger until I became the Four Heavenly Kings of Ishgar. Looking back, I was still Heiberian, the mage who used blood magic, but no one dared to question me anymore. Is my magic evil!"

Hey Berrien looked at the silver-haired girl with the eyes of admonishing juniors: "So what I want to say is, don't care about other people's opinions! Miss Strauss, I know your situation, because we are actually very similar, you I am a 'demon', I am a 'vampire', they are all beings that are feared and rejected by the world. But so what? It is not the magic you use that determines whether you are evil, but your soul! Sink your heart and go on , when you are strong enough, you will find that all the doubts and rejections at the beginning are fleeting. In fact, you have done a good job. You are already an S-rank mage in Fairy Tail, and your companions will not because of Hating you for your magic - that's a lot better than I was! So what do you have to worry about?"

"Your magic power is sealed because of your inner problems. Because you are questioning your own magic. As I said, all magic comes from our soul, so when your soul starts to shake, then naturally you can't use magic .Son, I can see the confusion in your heart, but this is the only one that others can't help you. You can only rely on yourself to find a way to solve it. All I can do is tell you these experiences. The rest, you have to It depends on your own will and determination!"

Mirajane quickly and solemnly thanked her. Although she still hadn't found a way to unlock her magic power seal, Heyberian's experience still gave her great encouragement and inspiration.

The old nobleman thought for a while, and added: "I can give you a basic suggestion, which may have been mentioned by many people, but it is really useful: When you are confused, you might as well go back to the source and recall what happened at the very beginning. Beginning of the beginning, what do you think?"

"The original idea?" Mirajane muttered thoughtfully.

In the upstairs study room, the protective barrier was opened again, and the good sound insulation made it impossible for the occasional explosions in the room to come out of the door.

Not only the flashing runes flowing on the inner wall of the room, but also a layer of dark golden text flashing on the surface of Woz's body-this is the shelter that Woz gave himself to prevent him from being hurt by the magic that he failed to cast.

There is a faint smell of blood in the air. The magic of blood explosion is to use one's own blood as a medium to draw a magic circle. Even though the amount of blood needed each time is very small, just half a drop, it cannot hold up to a large amount!

Yes, in just over an hour, Woz basically mastered the technique of casting this magic.The only difficulty is how to control the blood flow and squeeze the needed blood from the fingertips.But this is not a problem at all for Woz, who has a gifted reading ability and can fully control every muscle in his body.

So after quickly learning the spellcasting skills, Woz started to complete the magic.However, the difficulty of drawing the magic circle with the bloodshot volley was far beyond Woz's expectations, causing him to fail hundreds of times in a row, which only increased the smell of blood in the air.

In order to thoroughly understand this magic, Woz had to give up the shortcut of using innate abilities to take advantage of tricks, and began to truly use magic to perceive the power contained in the blood.Only in this way can we meet the "entry" requirements mentioned by High Berrien.

Because of Woz's understanding of the cold, and his close contact with the cold and ice and snow, he has a profound grasp of the ice modeling magic.

It is even more because Woz is proficient in his word symbols, so he can be proficient in word magic! .

Then the next step: "How do I get in touch with and become familiar with this strange new magic?"

Woz thought for a while, squeezed out a drop of blood from his fingertip, and then quietly observed the drop of blood.

The magic power of blood, old people like President Makarov and Heiberian, their vitality has been fused with their own magic power, so their blood is already full of magic power, and any drop of it can be used as a highly effective medicine. magic ink.

But young people like Woz are not so exaggerated. Even if they contain some magic power, it is impossible to compare with those predecessors.

What he needs to find is the power contained in the blood itself!
