"Huh? Can different puppet hearts be fused together?" Celia exclaimed in shock.
"In my eyes, nothing is impossible."
Chapter 43 Fusion
By the time I got back to school, it was already evening.
Exhausted from running around all day, Celia fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.
Ross then controlled the puppet to bring out the day's spoils.
A magic scroll containing the fourth-tier spell [Meteor Shower], and a fragment of a nature-based deity.
This divine fragment is slightly larger than the one that Celia bought. Of course, it has the exact same shape, only the color is different.
The one with Celia is light blue, and this one is light green.
"The scrolls of fourth-order spells are currently only for display."
【Meteor Shower】 is a large-area fire spell that summons a bunch of flames that fall from the sky like meteors, dealing massive fire damage to the target and a large area around it. The range depends on the rarity of the scroll.
The one we captured today is of ordinary quality, with an effective radius of about 50 meters. For Celia now, it's practically a mutual destruction situation.
She can't escape this area.
The scroll's built-in temporary immunity effect only works on Tier 2 and above, with Tier 3 being the best.
Ross casually tossed it aside, picked up the fragment of divinity, and examined it closely.
"This fragment of divinity seems to belong to the Elf God."
The Elf Goddess, the sole deity of the Elf race, appears in quests related to the Elf race. Her role is to inform the player of the current situation of the gods and provide them with some assistance.
This means that the Elf God provided a lot of help to Ross during his growth.
But now... her condition is probably dire.
If one's divine essence is shattered, how can one possibly survive?
It's very difficult.
"Let me take your 'body' and help you get revenge."
Ross sighed softly, and was about to take the puppet's heart out of the puppet's body when he suddenly realized that doing so would cause the puppet to lose control, and might even break down.
He looked at the sleeping Celia, pondered for a moment, then quietly returned, throwing Celia's soul into the mental space to take control of her body in her place.
Having regained a body that wasn't his own, Ross looked at the mirror beside him, focusing on the slightly undulating area, and pondered a question: "Why don't I touch it while she's sleeping and see how it feels?"
But in the end he didn't do it.
"If you're going to touch someone, do it openly and honestly. I'm not that kind of person who does it sneakily... Damn curse."
"What curse?"
A questioning voice echoed in my mind from Celia.
"Huh? Why are you awake?" Ross asked in surprise.
The girl said resentfully, "You threw me in here so forcefully, how could I not wake up? If you want to touch me, then touch me, I can't resist."
"I have no interest in little girls." Ross snorted, controlling Celia's body to come in front of the puppet and begin to disassemble it.
"really?"
Thrown into the mental space, Celia could sense changes in 'her own' emotions. She asked with great curiosity, "Lord Ross clearly has those kinds of thoughts, so why is he so resistant? Is it because of the curse you just mentioned?"
"Little friend, you're talking a lot today. You don't want your body back, do you?"
Having spent so much time together, Celia had long since developed the skill of reading people's expressions (for Rost). Knowing that Rost wasn't angry, she immediately pressed on, "Were you once cursed so that you couldn't touch women?"
"You're overthinking it. Who could possibly curse me?"
Ross snorted.
Then he added, "Except for myself."
"Own……?"
The girl was shocked.
Why would someone curse themselves?
"Nothing surprising."
I will cry if I continue.
If I had known I would time travel, I shouldn't have chosen the [Star God Curse] option to start the game.
The positive effect of this curse is that it allows players to take an alternative path to godhood, without needing to condense a divine spark or forge a faith. This makes them more powerful than ordinary gods, making it an essential starting point for taking on the twelve main gods in a one-on-one battle.
The negative effect is that your favorability with most gods decreases by 1000, and you cannot encounter any female NPCs.
As a player, Ross didn't understand the purpose of the second negative effect, since there were no cutscenes and dating NPCs wasn't very interesting.
Now, as a time traveler...
Ross vowed to break this damned curse once he was unsealed.
The Star God's Curse, is it?
You've torn up the Star God!
Seeing that Ross was unwilling to talk, Celia had no choice but to shut up.
Her attention was quickly drawn to the two puppet hearts.
"They're glowing!"
Ross casually removed the linking device that absorbed the divine fragments, threw it into the trash can, and then channeled his mental energy into the fragments.
Activated by his mental power, the fragments of divine essence emitted a faint, crystal-clear, and beautiful light.
With Ross's continued input of mental energy, the two fragments melted together, slowly forming a liquid.
Celia had never seen or heard of such a situation before.
The book describes the Natural Puppet Heart as being the most solid thing in the world. It is said that only a mage of the sixth rank or higher, with the aid of many instruments, can split it into two Puppet Hearts.
Even if it is divided into two, their volume will return to the original size, only their computing power will be reduced.
The situation where Ross directly melts the Heart of the Puppet, as he has done now, is unheard of.
"If this scene were recorded, I'm sure the school would be shocked."
Celia really wanted to record this scene, but unfortunately, Ross was now controlling her body, so she could only watch helplessly.
A paper that influenced the entire world was slowly fading away before my eyes.
After melting the two godhood fragments, Ross kneaded the two clumps of liquid together.
Just like boiling water, the liquid boils violently, like water droplets falling into a pot of oil.
What Ross did was turn the oil pan into a water pan, forcing the oil to drip into the water and dissolve it.
The process was very slow, and it wasn't until Celia was drowsy that the two clumps of liquid completely merged, turning into a clear, blue-green liquid.
"Did it work?" Celia's spirits lifted.
"Not yet. We need to assign it a primary attribute so that it can re-condense before it can be considered a success," Ross said slowly.
He kneaded it like dough, squeezing it hard until the color gradually turned blue.
After a long time, the liquid turned a deeper light blue than before, and then slowly solidified, reverting to the shape of the Puppet Heart.
"Alright." Ross installed the new linking device that he had asked Celia to buy on the way here, put it back into the puppet, clapped his hands, returned to the bedside, and handed over control of the body to Celia.
Celia excitedly took control of her body, then everything went black.
A wave of intense fatigue and dizziness washed over her, as if she hadn't eaten or slept for three days, leaving her feeling utterly weak.
The girl couldn't take it anymore and collapsed on the spot.
"my body……"
It's been ruined...
I had writer's block on this chapter, so I'm late...
Chapter 44 Spell Combination Techniques
The next day, Celia returned to class, was called upon to take a test, and then returned to normal.
The difference is that after the school learned that Celia already possessed a magic puppet and had independently completed a mission, they cut some of her elective courses and replaced them with magic puppet training courses.
This course is different from the puppet course. The former teaches sorcerers who own puppets, while the latter teaches students to recognize and create puppets.
This afternoon was her first puppet training class.
As soon as she entered, Celia saw several familiar figures.
The remaining four are the pre-selected saintesses.
They were surprised by Celia's appearance. Doris walked over directly, examined the puppet Celia had brought, and asked incredulously, "You, have you been cooperating with some family?"
"Yes, they gave me the Puppet Heart for free." Celia was in a good mood today and even had the time to tease Doris.
The other three candidates also noticed Celia, but none of them came over.
They did not believe that Celia posed a threat to them.
The temple comes from a remote area, and the high priest of the temple is still incorruptible. He can't even provide the gold coins to buy the Heart of the Puppet. How can he compare to these candidates who either have the support of great nobles or great temples?
Doris was the only one who had the intention to recruit them and always wanted to do something about it.
"Which nobleman is so stupid as to provide it for free?" Doris believed it.
This surprised Celia. "You don't know..."
Wasn't it Doris who instructed Mil or Enarse to get her to participate in the flying competition, and then take the opportunity to cause trouble?
"Do not know what is this?"
"Nothing, class is starting, Miss Doris."
Celia shook her head, suppressing her doubts.
Because the advisor arrived.
Unlike the younger instructors of other courses, the instructor of the Puppet Training Course was already elderly, his aged face beaming with a kind smile: "Today, we have a new member joining our Puppet Training Course, Celia. Please welcome her."
He is not only a mentor, but also a professor at the school.
clap clap clap!
Applause erupted in the classroom; even Doris clapped.
"Thank you, everyone." Celia stood up and performed a Holy Court salute to everyone.
"I am Abros, the instructor of the puppet training course. You can ask me any questions you may have about puppets in the future."
After introducing Celia to everyone, Abros began his lesson.
"The puppet training course is divided into three parts: the first part is combat instruction, the second part is practical training, and the third part is Q&A..."
"In today's lesson, we will talk about how to allocate spells reasonably. The puppet can store many spells according to the sorcerer's rank and the quality of the puppet heart."
"Used in combat or work to assist the puppet in achieving its goals, how to allocate spells and create chain reactions in battle or work is a profound art..."
Celia had thought she would miss a lot of classes and not understand them, but she found that she didn't. Professor Abros's explanations were insightful and easy to understand. In assigning spells to the puppets, he was able to enlighten her in many ways and generate a lot of ingenious ideas.
She was now eager to store those spells into the puppet.
However, Ross immediately poured cold water on her idea: "Don't even think about it. You can't do micro-management like storing a Burst spell inside an ice spike."
Celia retorted, "Then I'll combine my Lightning Strike spell with Rainfall spell, so that lightning can attach to all the raindrops and strike the enemy."
"Yes, it's a little more powerful than a tickle."
"Then I can use a massive earthquake to conceal the ice spikes, allowing them to launch a surprise attack from underground, right?"
"Yes, but Earthquake is a third-tier spell, and it's earth-based, so it's incompatible with your puppet."
Celia was very aggrieved: "Then there's no other way, right? Why can't the puppet release all magic...?"
