Kato Megumi wants to learn magic

"So why do you think that only by opening the door of truth can you advance? Becoming a magician is a step for humans to enter the extraordinary and break free from fate. So why don't you give your own destiny to a so-called door of truth that you don't know the details of?"

Seeing Patchouli's penetrating eyes, Kato Megumi felt as if her confused and bound mind was suddenly struck lightly by something; the object that bound her suddenly shattered.

At the same time... everything in Kato Megumi's sight suddenly changed.

The spiritual sea under my feet suddenly disappeared, the black mist around me vanished, everything seemed to be returning to chaos, and everything turned into nothingness.

Only myself and Miss Witch still exist in this empty space.

Kato Megumi seemed to wake up at this time, and understood everything. Everything from the beginning when she obtained the spirit to now has returned to nothingness. The memories in between have been replaying in her mind over and over again. With her keen insight and Patchouli's reminder, Kato Megumi suddenly realized.

"So that's how it is... I didn't expect that I was deceived... Thank you for your reminder, Ms. Patchouli..."

It turns out that there is no such thing as a spiritual sea, nor is there any so-called space to store the spirit, because the spiritual power is Kato Megumi herself, and everything before is an illusion.

In the early days of magicians, thoughts, mental strength, ideas, desires, souls, these miscellaneous things, things that cannot be reflected by material things, are actually mixed together.

That is the spiritual body that is now floating in this space.

Similarly, the door of truth does not exist. Kato Megumi has never thought that there is a door to truth? Why can one only be promoted by opening the door? Human beings go from ordinary to extraordinary, from nothing to something. Why does this process still rely on a so-called door of truth? Isn't this putting one's fate on other people or things?

Only then did Kato Megumi realize that from the moment she stepped into the magic circle and became half a step beyond the ordinary, she had already fallen into the illusion given by the so-called rules.

It is not always smooth sailing to transform from a mortal into a magician with extraordinary powers. In this process from nothing to something, one not only needs to possess extraordinary talents, but also needs to accept the test of the rules.

After all, humans themselves are not extraordinary creatures. To transition from ordinary creatures to extraordinary creatures is to break the rules. The rules will naturally impose constraints. If you break through them, you will succeed, and if you can't break them, you will fail.

From the very beginning, Kato Megumi had this so-called restraint. In the words of other extraordinary people, it was a test of inner demons, realm, etc.

The so-called spiritual sea or the so-called gate of truth are actually just illusions. These are just illusions created by the rules based on her subconscious mind in order to restrain her.

The core of this illusion is the so-called door of truth. As long as it is destroyed, Kato Megumi will be able to break through the constraints of this stage and successfully become a formal magician.

So when she destroyed the door to truth, Kato Megumi could come to her side through the contract, and Kato Megumi could become a formal magician.

“I didn’t expect this… I didn’t expect it to be like this… And then I accidentally destroyed the door…”

When the Door of Truth is shattered, the broken stones will turn into the power of rules and gradually merge into Kato Megumi's spiritual body. It is precisely because of this power of rules that she can completely stabilize her spiritual body and step into the extraordinary.

In response to Kato Megumi's gratitude, Patchouli nodded in agreement.

"Human... you are indeed very lucky... you happened to meet me, and happened to be forced to come to this world, and happened to be noticed by the gods, and happened to be given divine power by them. It is the combination of these conditions that allowed you to be promoted to the so-called consciousness magician through my theory."

It turns out that the so-called door of truth is not so easy to destroy. Patchouli's theory is different from other magicians. It is different from other magicians who use mental power to guide external energy to break the limitations of their own bodies and then feed back mental power through their bodies.

Patchouli's method is more direct and quick. She directly uses the magic circle to forcibly upgrade her soul, so that from the very beginning she can obtain the level of stable mental power that ordinary magicians who have reached an extraordinary realm can gain.

All supernatural systems are roughly divided into three major stages: supernatural, extraordinary, and transcendent.

The extraordinary is a power beyond that of ordinary people, on which the extraordinary becomes even more powerful and life itself has undergone a complete transformation; while transcendence is to break free from the constraints of the world.

Only when one reaches an extraordinary realm can one's mental power be upgraded, and the mage's mental power can truly change from quantitative change to qualitative change, so that the mental power is stabilized by the force of rules, and can survive by relying on mental power even if it is separated from the body.

Patchouli's new theory will initially temporarily upgrade the soul, which is the first step in becoming a so-called conscious magician. Naturally, for a magician, the obstacles and constraints from the rules will be even more powerful.

Unlike other magicians who only need to endure the oppression of heaven and earth with their mental strength, the consequence of a temporary dimensional upgrade is that the new dimension will not give the necessary protection because it does not recognize the upgraded soul. The original dimension will give a higher level of surveillance and supervision to restrict this restless element because the soul carries the breath of the new dimension.

This means that if one wants to truly become a magician, one must not only be able to withstand the temporary dimensional upgrade of the soul, but also destroy the power of rules that bind oneself.

however……

It's so hard.

"I was thinking of using some methods until you went to find something with the power of rules, but I didn't expect you to solve it by accident by yourself."

Patchouli's expression was a little subtle.

The temporary dimensional ascension of the soul requires strong mental power. However, human mental power is inherently fragile. Even those magical geniuses only have abundant mental power, not strong mental power. Moreover, if you want to break the power of rules, you can only use rules to break it. Rules are very rare, and rules that can be integrated with the soul are even rarer. It is even more difficult for a soul to withstand the power of rules. This is why this theory has not been successful yet.

Kato Megumi happens to be a lucky person among the lucky ones. After experiencing countless reincarnations, although her mental power is not as good as that of a magical genius, her soul has become stronger because of reincarnation and can temporarily upgrade her dimension.

And the rules needed to break the door of truth are even more coincidental. Do you remember the divine power of Mother Earth?

The divine power bestowed by the gods already contains rules, and these rules happen to be the rules of the power of faith. These rules can be integrated with Kato Megumi's spiritual body, which led to Kato Megumi's powerful kick to smash the door of truth, and use the power of the rules to stabilize her spiritual body.

Although the original intention of this rule was to monitor and restrain Kato Megumi herself.

"So you're really lucky..."

Looking at the surface of Kato Megumi's spirit body, the transparent chains that had become tattered in the collision, Patchouli couldn't help but sigh that the girl in front of her was indeed the true chosen one. Not only did she get the power of rules by accident and become the first stream-of-consciousness magician of the new theory, but the power of rules used by the gods to bind her was also severely damaged...

Is this really the person favored by heaven?

"Next, you can sense what talent you have engraved..."

ps: I have always wanted to update more, but I keep putting it off. Am I the reincarnation of a pigeon?

Original Goblin Slayer: Chapter 87 Chapter Enjoying Eriri

In the flower garden inside the villa, Ying Lili was lying on a wooden recliner with her limbs spread out, looking cute and adorable, basking in the sun in a half-asleep state.

"Haha...there's nothing better than spending the day relaxing in the sun."

Ying Lili said with her eyes half closed, mumbling.

A golden coat was lightly draped over the body, a breeze blew across the face, and a faint floral scent filled the air at the tip of the nose. Both the body and mind felt warm and comfortable.

"Ah... It smells so good... Even the travels in my previous life couldn't compare to this kind of life..."

With one paw, he picked up a small dried fish nearby and sipped the juice from time to time. Yingli squinted his eyes and exclaimed happily.

As she moved, a few tender whiskers curled up to the sides. From time to time, she opened her mouth, revealing two small tender teeth. Her tail also swayed restlessly and curled up, which made the two maids who were cleaning nearby feel itchy.

"Your Majesty's pet is so cute. I really want to touch it..."

A round-faced maid was picking flowers while looking at Eriri sitting on the wooden chair with envy on her face.

"It would be nice if I had a pet like this..."

That pair of pointed ears, bright and lively big eyes, and the way it stretches from time to time are so adorable. The maid has never seen such a cute pet, no wonder she is full of envy.

"Hey, don't even think about it. You can't just own an adult's pet. Stop daydreaming..."

The maid on the other side sneered and pushed her...

"Alright, stop messing around and quickly collect these petals. Her Majesty the Saint's cat needs a bath... You can just touch it a little more during that time."

"That's right..."

When the round-faced girl heard this, she immediately started collecting petals and looked forward to the cat's bath time.

Eriri had no idea what the two were thinking and was still lazily lying on a wooden chair basking in the sun. During the few days after Kato Megumi was promoted, Eriri suddenly turned from a singing serf to the owner of a villa.

Relying on the fact that she is the saint's pet and her own cute appearance, Eriri transforms herself into a landowner and orders the maid around her as she pleases, allowing her to enjoy herself to the fullest.

For example, taking a flower petal bath... or asking someone to make dried fish for you... or combing your hair and giving yourself a massage... In short, do whatever makes you feel comfortable. It can be said that you have suddenly gone from the earth to heaven, enjoying the dreamy care, not to mention the nourishment.

For example, today, I drank a glass of milk in the morning, and asked the maid to comb my hair and massage it when I came out to bask in the sun. The dried fish and juice around me were also prepared by the maids. After that, someone took a careful bath. This life is not worse than that of ordinary people.

When Kato Megumi arrived at the yard, she saw Eriri, who was looking lazy and enjoying herself. She had already heard from the maid about Eriri's every move in recent days. Faced with Eriri who was so immersed in luxury, Kato Megumi felt quite helpless.

Coming to the wooden chair, Kato Megumi grabbed Eriri's neck skillfully and shook her in the air.

"Ah... Um, I told you not to disturb me during my lunch break, who is disturbing me?"

Ying Lili complained, and then when she opened her eyes she saw that familiar face, and the impatience on her face immediately disappeared.

"Hui! You finally came out. Do you know how many days you have been meditating? I lost my appetite and my face became thinner. I was so worried about you..."

"Well... you've worked so hard."

Kato Megumi blinked, then holding Eriri, she bent down gently, and with her other hand she picked up the dried fish on the wooden chair as if nothing had happened, and put it in her mouth to taste it.

Salty...

"Hmm... it tastes good... If I hadn't seen you enjoying it so much, I might have believed what you said..."

"Ahaha, ha... well... I've been worried about you recently. The maids around me saw how thin I was, so they made me some dried fish, brought me some drinks, and asked me to rest in the sun."

Seeing her eyes shaking left and right and her clumsy explanations, Kato Megumi gently patted her little head to stop her from making excuses.

"Hmm... Eriri-san, why are you making excuses to me? I only said that I was going to meditate and retreat, but I didn't say that you couldn't enjoy yourself freely during this period... What are you feeling guilty about?"

“Ahaha… well…”

Ying Lili scratched her ears with her claws and said rather embarrassedly.

"You're getting promoted, but you have to stay in the room for several days without food or drink. I'm enjoying myself outside by myself. Isn't this embarrassing..."

"But... you're still nice."

Kato Megumi poked Eriri's furry cheek with her index finger and said with a wink.

“Ahahaha… well, well…”

Seeing Eriri racking her brains to defend herself, Kato Megumi did not wait for her to think hard. Instead, she put her back in her arms, patted her lightly without caring, and walked into the villa.

"Okay, okay... no need to make excuses... am I such a petty person? During this period, I thought you were not having a good time outside and was afraid that you would worry... but seeing that you are so carefree and enjoying your life so much, I feel relieved."

"I... am not heartless... lungless..."

Eriri muttered.

"By the way, did you succeed in your promotion this time? Have you reached that level already..."

Ying Lili raised her head and asked suddenly, wagging her tail, obviously very concerned about this issue.

"Well... there will definitely be no problem with me helping you, don't worry... I'm a magician now."

Kato Megumi replied that although she had been a magician for a while, there was still a hint of happiness on her face that she couldn't hide. After all, when you have your own power and take a small step towards your goal, everyone would feel happy.

Not to mention that this promotion solved many problems, and she also got to meet the witch lady whom she had always been grateful to.

"Huh... That's good, that's good, then I feel relieved. Although I had magic to cast and guns to use before, they are external objects after all. Weapons will run out and magic can disappear at any time. I always feel a little uneasy."

"Now that you have become a magician, we finally have some power in our own extraordinary realm."

Ying Lili sighed, but she was very happy in her heart, and then she asked curiously.

"Then can you cast some magic now? Come on... let me see what kind of magic you can cast..."

"I……"

crunch--

However, before Kato Megumi could answer, the door of the villa suddenly rang. Kato Megumi looked in the direction of the sound and saw a ray of light coming in. The person she saw was the familiar Knight Clina, and behind her was a clergyman who looked extraordinary.

Original Goblin Slayer: Chapter 88 Chapter The Hostile White Priest

Klina didn't expect that Her Majesty the Saint was also in the hall. After all, Her Majesty the Saint had been meditating in the room these days and had not seen her. However, she quickly reacted, walked towards Kato Megumi, and performed a knight's salute.

"Good day... Your Majesty... I thought you would be busy in your room for a few days, but I didn't expect you to come out today."

"It just so happens that I have something to ask you, Your Majesty..."

Kato Megumi touched Eriri's ear and answered in a soft voice.

"Good day... It just happened today. The matter has been resolved, so I left the room."

Eriri's explanation to the outside world was that Kato Megumi was meditating for a breakthrough. Kato Megumi did not want to hide the fact of her promotion, so Eriri did not hide it either. However, she only mentioned promotion and did not say anything else. So Krina thought that the saint had made progress in her divine arts and was meditating for promotion in the room.

Klina glanced at Kato Megumi inconspicuously, and vaguely sensed that the saint in front of her seemed to be really different. She admired her even more in her heart. She was worthy of being Her Majesty the Saint. She was promoted so quickly, and she was even more unpredictable.

But this is also a good thing. Krina's smile became brighter, but she did not forget the main business. Instead, she restrained her smile and Kato Megumi introduced the people behind her.

"Your Majesty... This is Lord Drus sent by the Holy City. He is a white-robed priest. He was sent by the Holy City because of the news about you that the Lord Priest passed on. He is ready to take you to the Holy City for the ceremony."

It turned out to be the Holy City. Kato Megumi knew that the other party would take her to the Holy City, but she didn't expect that the other party would come so quickly. It only took four or five days for the other party to rush over. She heard that it would take one or two months from here to the Holy City even by carriage!

However, even though she was so surprised, Kato Megumi did not show it on her face. Instead, she gave a friendly smile and greeted the other person softly.

"Hello...I'm Kato Megumi."

However, in the face of Kato Megumi's goodwill, the other party did not show any friendly attitude, but glanced at Klina coldly and scolded.

"Even if you are a person favored by God, as long as you are not canonized by the Holy City Ceremony, you are not a saint. As a Knight of Judgment, how could you not know this? No wonder you were assigned to such a place... Knight Klina."

Drus's aura was already sharp, and coupled with these words of rebuke, Clina's face suddenly turned pale and powerless, with no luster on her face.

Even Kato Megumi frowned and looked at the man with some displeasure. No matter what, Klina was already hers. Scolding Klina in front of her, wasn't this a slap in the face in disguise?

However, the other party did not seem to care about Kato Megumi's opinion. After saying this, he stepped forward and performed a simplified etiquette towards Kato Megumi.

In fact, Druss did not have a good impression of the one favored by God in front of her. Looking at the ordinary girl in front of her, she even doubted whether Dilock's information was correct and whether the other party had deceived him and mistakenly believed that the other party was a one favored by God.
