Demon King, you just need to conquer, and your husband will come up with the solution.

For a moment, the commotion in the square escalated instead of abated. Catherine became flustered upon seeing this. The questions from the people of Blackwater City became sharper and sharper, making it difficult for her to answer.

She had never experienced such a situation before, and she was at a loss for a moment, not knowing how to calm the chaotic crowd.

Seeing the situation getting increasingly out of control, Fafner, who had been standing silently behind Catherine, took out her staff, pointed it at the floor, and a magic circle covering the entire square was quickly formed. After a burst of strong light, the entire square fell silent.

The people who were just enraged fell into a state of confusion, and then unconsciously dispersed from the square and returned to their homes to rest...

"This...is this?"

Remington looked at the effect of the magic in shock, a hint of greed showing in his expression.

Fafna explained: "Empty Head, a relatively simple spell, I just expanded the number of targets... After using it, it will make the person being cast stop thinking temporarily and obey instinct and subconsciousness."

"Haha, magic is indeed profound and extensive, with all kinds of strange categories and effects... Is it difficult to learn it?" After complimenting, Remington asked with some itch.

This is a spell that can control the minds of ordinary people, so Remington couldn't help but be tempted.

Fafna shook her head coldly: "Sorry, I can't reveal the learning method of this spell, because..."

At this moment, a witch from the audience lightly leaped onto the stage and added to Fafner with a smile.

"Because according to the regulations, this spell cannot be used on mortals, and cannot be taught to mortals. It can only be used in battles between wizards... Miss Fafna, what you did just now was a violation of the wizard's commandments."

Chapter 12 Sir, times have changed!

"Ms. Fafna, mind control spells are not allowed to be used or taught to mortals. Your actions just now are in violation of the mage's commandments."

The witch Trinity jumped lightly onto the platform, pinched the brim of her hat, and reminded Fafner.

Fafna looked calm and said, "I am not an academic mage. I have never sworn an oath in front of the statue of Ovinia. The mage's commandments have no meaning to me."

Hearing this, Trinity's lips curled up slightly, she gently pressed the brim of her hat and said, "So that's how it is, Miss Fafner is actually an unlicensed magician. However, Miss Fafner, being unlicensed doesn't mean you can break the rules without restraint.

On the contrary, this only shows that your behavior of breaking the commandments is worse than that of other mages. Miss Fafner, as the head of the Blackwater City Magic Branch, I am afraid I will have to punish you. "

As she spoke, Trinity pulled out a magic wand from her chest, and with a slight flicker of her fingers, a glimmer of magic quickly emerged from the wand.

Fafner knocked the floor with her staff in her hand, and tremendous magic power quickly gathered around her.

Just from the magical power that the two mobilized at the beginning, it was obvious that Fafnir had an overwhelming suppression on Trinity. No matter how you looked at this situation, it was quite unfavorable to Trinity.

So, before the fight started, Fafnir said, "Ms. Trinity, you should be able to sense the difference in magical power between you and me. This battle is meaningless because you will definitely lose to me."

However, Trinity was not in a hurry, and she didn't care much about Fafner's reminder. She smiled and said, "It is indeed an amazing magical power. Miss Fafner is worthy of being the magician of the brave team.

From any perspective, Miss Fafna, the magic power in your body has surpassed the current first-level wizard standard, and may have reached the level of a legendary wizard. I didn't expect that a wandering witch like me would have the opportunity to fight a legendary wizard~"

Trinity's nonchalant expression surprised Fafner, and she asked incomprehensibly: "If that's the case, why do you choose to go against me? Do you think you have the ability to fight against a legendary wizard?

Forgive me, Miss Trinity, as a wandering witch, your magic power is indeed quite good. If you participate in a formal magic rating, you should be able to become a good first-level wizard. However, you are still not qualified to go against me. "

"Haha~ How do you know if you don't try?"

The momentum of the two people's swords was so fierce that Catherine was at a loss. She ran to the two women and said, "Hey! Don't fight! Didn't you just talk about this in the tavern last night? Are you friends? "

Trinity tilted her head and smiled, "Friends? Miss Brave, you're taking it for granted. When did I ever say that I'm friends with you?

Frankly speaking, it is truly astonishing that you chose to use such a lame excuse as the demons taking Governor Ains away to fool the people.

Because you are a hero, you throw mud at the devil without thinking when you encounter anything? How many people have you deceived with this kind of words, Miss Hero?"

Catherine was so angry that her face turned red as she argued, "I'm not lying! Governor Irons was really taken away by the Demon King! The Demon King's magic fluctuations are still lingering in the dungeon!"

Unfortunately, Catherine's explanation did not win Trinity's trust. She just questioned and mocked, "Before, they just said that he was taken away by the demons, and now they say that he was taken away by the Demon King...

"That's really outrageous. Why didn't you think more about it when you made up the story? Would a being like the Demon King be willing to cause trouble for a human governor?"

"I know this is outrageous, but I want to know the ultimate reason!" Catherine held her head with both hands and screamed in pain. The feeling of being questioned again and again by others is really uncomfortable!

As a brave hero, he carries everyone's trust and hope, but Blackwater City is a weird place. No one trusts him as a brave hero.

When I went on adventures before, I usually came to a town that was oppressed by greedy and corrupt officials. Then I relied on the prestige and power of a brave man to overthrow the evil officials and bring hope and liberation to the residents of the town.

I don't know how many times I have done this kind of thing along the way, so much so that it has become a habitual thought. I feel that I will definitely bring future and hope to those towns.

Then the people and things in Blackwater City slapped her hard in the face and told her that even without a hero like her, people here could live just as well.

And...it seemed like I had become the culprit that caused all the trouble.

None of this is Catherine's own wish!

Fafna's magic power surged, and she pushed Catherine away and said, "Catherine, please step back. The people here are overly loyal to Ains. This witch said she wanted to punish me, but in fact she wanted us to release Ains."

Trinity, who was exposed, did not defend herself. She smiled and nodded generously, saying, "You are right, Miss Fafner, if you can release Mr. Irons, then we can make peace.

However, if you still choose to follow that old man Remington, I'm sorry, I can only use some radical means to dig some information out of you."

Fafna's face darkened, and a trace of anger rarely appeared on her cold and pretty face: "It's you who is stubborn and rebellious!"

As she spoke, Fafna struck the staff in her hand, and a huge amount of magic power surged out, and began to split into strands and quickly transformed into external magic circuits, building a complex magic circle around her.

The scale of the magic circle was so huge that it almost covered the entire square. It was not much different from the empty-headed magic circle that had been used before, and the complexity of the magic circuit was even greater.

The speed at which the entire magic circle was constructed was almost just a breath, which shows the strength of a legendary wizard.

In comparison, if Farna's magical torrent is compared to the surging waves, then Trinity's magical fluctuations can only be regarded as the light of a small boat swaying in the waves.

At the beginning, Trinity was directly trapped in the passive state by Fafner's terrifying magic torrent. The magic circle under Trinity's feet could only barely maintain a relatively stable existence in Fafner's magic circle.

Faced with the rapidly accelerating magical power cluster formed by Fafner's magic circle, all Trinity could do was to build up protection to ensure that she could still stand on that inch of land.

Seeing this, Fafna showed a hint of disappointment and said, "Is this what you call a try? This is too disappointing. Give up. The gap between you and me is too big."

Facing Farner's doubts, Trinity controlled her own magic power and fended off Farner's fierce magic beam that was almost like a downpour, but her embarrassed state did not affect the smile on her face.

"Hehehe~ It is indeed an astonishing use of magic power... However, I can see that, Miss Fafner, you are not actually a mage... You are actually a warlock, and a dragonborn warlock."

Mages are not the only professions that use magic. To be precise, the mainstream magic professions are divided into four categories. The first category is the traditional mage, who masters magic through systematic learning and training and is also synonymous with magic users.

The warlock that Trinity called Fafner was another more pleasing existence. Compared with the wizard, the warlock paid more attention to talent and bloodline.

Moreover, warlocks do not place as much emphasis on acquired learning and training as mages do. Most warlocks only possess a single type of magic, and the foundation of their spellcasting is not the knowledge they have learned, but their own bloodline.

For example, the dragonborn warlock mentioned by Trinity is naturally able to use some dragon magic because he has dragon blood.

Fafnir didn't care much about Trinity's revelation, and just said lightly: "So what? Anyway, in my long life, I have learned countless kinds of magic.

I have received more learning and training than most human mages today. I cannot be simply defined as a sorcerer or warlock."

In response, Trinity smiled with envy and said, "Ah, this is why I always envy you immortals. You always have plenty of time to pursue the secrets of magic.

But... most of the immortals I met always waste a lot of their time on some inexplicable things... Even hundreds or thousands of years of life have created increasingly old-fashioned and backward thoughts...

Miss Fafner, there is no doubt that you are the best among traditional magicians, but...what era is it now? Are you still using your traditional magic? My lord, times have changed!"

"Bang!!!"

With a loud bang, Trinity's left sleeve, which had been hidden, suddenly exploded with brilliant fireworks. At the same time, blood suddenly burst out of Fafner's body, and she fell to the ground in shock. At this moment, the huge magic circle she had constructed also collapsed instantly!

Trinity then finally revealed the strange machine hidden in her sleeves. It was a tubular object with complicated parts, and puffs of green smoke were still coming out of the tube.

"Ms. Fafner, magic also needs to keep up with the times and progress. You should first feel the power of the combination of machinery and magic."

Chapter 13 Circuit Fusing

"Favrna!!! Are you okay?"

Catherine immediately rushed to Fafner and asked about her companion's condition with concern.

Fafna covered her wound with a pale face, shook her head reluctantly and said, "It's okay... just a minor injury... no different from an arrow wound..."

After reassuring Catherine, Fafnir looked up at Trinity and said with resentment, "You...you actually used such an impure thing..."

However, these words made Trinity laugh. She shook her head and spread her hands and said, "Ms. Fafner, I am a wizard. The principle of us wizards is to find the possibility of magic. The word "pure" does not exist in our wizard dictionary because it goes against our spirit of exploration."

In addition to the two professions of mage and warlock, there is another magical profession called wizard, and the most typical image of this profession is a magic explorer who will do anything to achieve his goal.

They are always the leaders of new wave magic and rebels in the traditional magic world. Their philosophy of using magic is to have no taboos, and their only purpose is to explore the possibilities of magic.

Therefore, wizards are always not accepted by the mainstream magic world. In many cases, the mainstream magic world will even launch a crusade against wizards.

Of course, this kind of situation usually happens when some wizards behave too unscrupulously and do things that anger God and man, so there is nothing to justify.

"Are you sure...you use this thing to win...it's called exploring the possibility of magic?"

Fafnir gritted her teeth and questioned. The severe pain from the wound in her abdomen made her body twitch. It must be said that this kind of pain was something she had never experienced in her life. Although it was not fatal, it was definitely the most painful injury she had ever experienced.

In response to Fafner's question, Trinity pouted and said, "Wow~ Miss Fafner, you are so ignorant. Don't laugh at the little steel ball that hit your body. Don't you realize that something is wrong with your body?"

After being reminded by Trinity, Fafnir finally noticed the changes in her body. She suddenly found that she couldn't mobilize the magic circuits in her body!

Once forcibly mobilized, the magic circuits in his body would seem to be piled up with pebbles, causing swelling, pain, and unbearable stinging!

Her face turned pale and she shouted, "What on earth did you do to me!?"

Catherine panicked when she saw this and asked, "What's wrong with you, Fafner? Don't scare me!"

"I... I don't know either. My magic circuit..."

Trinity didn't hide it, and responded, "Ms. Fafner, you can't ask that. What you should ask is what I did with my little steel ball.

It's nothing actually. I just enchanted the steel ball so that it could penetrate the body of the legendary magician.

Well, let me think about it. First, I will use two wind magic spells to ensure that the speed is fast enough and accurate enough.

The fire magic ensures that he has enough initial velocity.

A deceleration magic to ensure that after it enters your body, it can stop and embed itself in your body.

The rest are some magics that affect your body, nothing special, just some erosion magic, death magic, poison magic, corrupted blood magic..."

Hearing these names, one could tell that these were extremely bad techniques. Fafnir's face became uglier. If these things exploded in her body all at once, she didn't dare to imagine what would happen!

However, when Trinity saw Farner's wonderful expression, she couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha~ Don't look so panicked~ Miss Farner.

Just kidding, although I can use all these, I didn't use them. After all, I didn't want to kill you, Miss Fafner. I just used a magic of my own creation called Circuit Fuse.

The effect is very simple. As long as this thing enters your body, your magic circuit will be broken. If you mobilize your magic power, you will be in excruciating pain.

A big drawback of this thing is that the magic must be injected into the target's body. It is not easy to do this relying on pure magic, especially when facing a legendary wizard like you, Miss Fafner.

However, with the help of machines, everything becomes easier~"

Trinity calmly explained her masterpiece to Fafnir, while Fafnir endured the pain of her circuit and tried to use her magic power to break through the spell constructed on the wound projectile.

Trinity saw through Fafner's intentions in an instant, and she quickly reminded her: "Miss Fafner, I advise you not to mobilize magic power recklessly. Circuit fuses are not just forbidden magic. It is wrong to rely on magic power to break through violently.

If you really want to endure the pain and force your way through the circuit-breaking technique, then your magic will go haywire in your body, and at that point, your magic circuit will really be broken, and you will become a magic cripple."

As soon as these words came out, the whole team of heroes was shocked. The impatient fairy archer Shana drew her bow and aimed her arrow at Trinity, shouting, "Witch! Take that damn thing out of Fafner's body! Otherwise, don't blame me for being blind!"

Trinity quickly spread her hands to signal calmness and said, "Wow, Miss Fairy, you have to be steady. I have to remind you that after the bullet is shot in, if there is no special method to remove it, its magic will also go out of control. If you kill me, Miss Fafner will really become a magic cripple."

"You bastard!"

"Yeah, it's true that many people always say that about me~ But I don't care~ If you're not a bit of an asshole, you can't survive in this world~"

Compared to Shana, Catherine was much calmer. She looked at Fafner, whose face was getting paler and paler. She took a deep breath, stood up and asked Trinity, "Ms. Trinity, tell me, what do you want us to do..."

"I've already told you, Miss Brave." Trinity put away her playful smile, showing an extremely cold expression, and demanded: "Hand over Governor Irons, otherwise, your mage teammates will be ready to become magic wastes."

Catherine immediately looked bitter and said, "But...but Governor Irons was really taken away by the Demon King. He is really not here with us..."

"Oh." Trinity remained unmoved and said, "Then rescue Governor Irons from the devil. Isn't that what you promised in your speech before?"

"This……"

Trinity's request made Catherine not know how to respond. She scratched her head in distress and tried to reason: "But... Miss Trinity, you know that Fafnir's magic power has been sealed by you. There is no wizard in the team, and we didn't send me to face the Demon King directly..."

"Oh. Then you hand over Governor Irons, and I will remove the bullet from Miss Fafner's body."

"But Governor Irons was taken away by the Demon King!"

"Then you go to the Demon King and rescue Governor Ains."

"But now our mage's magic power has been sealed by you!"

"Then hand over Governor Irons."

“…Hehehe! Aaaaaaaaaaah!!!”

Watching Catherine fall to the ground and scream, Trinity sneered and said, "Don't play tricks on me, brave man. When it comes to playing tricks, I am much more experienced than you little kids who just walked out of the greenhouse.

I have been patient with you. When we were in the tavern before, I thought you were a good group of people. But unfortunately, your response has disappointed me..."
