Become a powerful shadow master in the new world

"What we know may be different. You can read the news released by the Management Commune today."

Sid put his head in front of the computer.

"Last night, the world's most wanted criminal Shadow broke into the cornerstone gate and caused a huge explosion in an attempt to destroy Genshin Island, but was finally repelled by the heroic guards..."

After seeing this paragraph, Sid stopped reading any further. This is not the way the story should be made up.

"Look, it's funny, isn't it?"

After showing the news to Sid, Aoi Asagi spoke naturally.

"The PR manager of the commune is a fool. He dared to publish such news. What's even more outrageous is that many people believed it."

Noticing that Sid was still silent, Lan Yu Asagi thought for a moment, as if she suddenly remembered something, and continued to speak.

"Sid, I think the news you got was not the version where the guards repelled Shadow, but the version where Shadow left after the fourth true ancestor was defeated, right?"

Narrowing her eyes, Aiyu Asagi looked at Sid with suspicion.

This look finally perked Sid up. It was a very familiar look. Whenever he was suspected of hiding something, someone would look at him in that way.

It is indeed suspicious that he, a minor actor, does not know the widely circulated version of the story, but instead knows something that can be called a secret.

"Yeah, my sister told me."

Sid calmly and skillfully threw the blame on his sister, and began to reflect on himself, wondering if he had been too arrogant recently.

"Oh…"

After hearing Sid's explanation, Lan Yu Asagi suddenly realized what was going on. She felt amused at her own suspicion that Sid had some hidden identity, and sighed.

"I didn't expect you and your sister to have such a good relationship, Sid, that she could tell you something like this. I'm so envious!"

"Hmm...ha, haha, my sister and I do have a pretty good relationship...I guess."

Thinking about his daily interactions with Claire, Sid couldn't help but raise a questioning tone.

"Since you know the truth about the Big Bang, would you like to watch the video of the battle between Shadow and the Fourth True Ancestor? I got it with great difficulty."

Finally? Are you sure you didn't just hack into the management commune computer and make a copy?

Noticing the proud expression on Lan Yu Qian Cong's face, Sid cursed in his heart and then smiled impatiently on the surface.

He was still very curious about the camera's filming quality. If the quality of the Shadow Master was lowered due to poor filming, he would explode the camera every time he entered the venue.

"Yes, of course."

"Hehe, wait a moment, little Rossweisse is here."

At some point, Rossweisse had already stood on the podium, but she didn't look very well, and looked weak, which made people a little worried about her mental state.

"Just send it to me directly. You know I'm not interested in Rossweisse's class..."

"Students, some of you may already know this, but just in case we won't talk about magic in this class. Let's talk about the Magic Intellectual Property Protection Law Notice issued by Netheril this morning."

"Very interested! Asagi, let's watch it together later. Now, let's focus on the class."

"Uh……"

Seeing Cid becoming full of energy because of the word Netheril mentioned by Rossweisse, Aoi Asagi made a puzzled sound.

"Cid, are you interested in Netheril?"

"Shhhhhh..., listen carefully."

After hearing this, Asagi Aoi roughly confirmed that Cid was very interested in Netheril, and then turned her attention to Rossweisse.

After all, no matter what she showed on the surface or her true profession, it could be classified as a kind of sorcerer.

As a warlock, it is impossible to avoid Netheril.

As we all know, one of the titles of the Netheril Emperor "Roland Augusta" is "God of Magic", and the full name is "God of All Truth of Witches".

……

"...

Unless the scope of use is the world battlefield, if anyone uses Netheril's official spells without Netheril's permission, Netheril will sue them in the Netheril Supreme Court...

If the defendant refuses to go to court or disobeys the legal judgment, Naesriel will use special means to safeguard his legal rights.

The above is the notice issued by Naesriel this morning.

Classmates, do you have any questions? "

After reading it in a weak voice, Rossweisse let the students discuss it on their own.

The students below were dumbfounded. That’s right, even Sid, who knew nothing about the wizarding world, knew clearly what this meant.

When Netheril was first established, it published a large amount of upgraded basic magic knowledge of various major magic systems, and also attached a book called "How to Replace Basic Magic Circles in Large Magic".

These upgraded basic magic arrays are not only simpler than the original ones, but also more efficient and powerful. They were soon used by all major forces and replaced the basic magic arrays in large-scale magic.

It's not that no one has questioned why Netheril is so kind, but when they saw that after others replaced the basic magic circle, the power of the magic they used increased by three times, even if they had doubts about Netheril, they had to follow suit and replace the magic circle under the pressure from others after upgrading the magic circle.

Now they knew why Netheril was so kind. Netheril wanted to rob them of their money. No, this was even faster than robbery.

Now all forces have basically replaced their originally backward basic magic arrays with the more advanced upgraded version of Netheril's basic magic arrays.

In other words, if they really do what Netheril says, the major forces will either have to pay the money honestly, or replace their own magic circles with the original ones, or try to do the same thing as Netheril and modify the basic magic.

You don't have to think about the last two. You may think it is very simple to modify the basic magic circle. But you should know that no matter how large or advanced the magic is, it is made up of basic magic circles.

Changing it back would be self-destruction. Using the Netheril Circle uses less magic power than the original version, but is more powerful. Which force would be so stupid as to reduce their own magic power by 30% just for money?

No wonder Rossweisse looked so hopeless, and the magic science students below looked dazed, as if their brains were stunned.

"Teacher Rossweisse, I want to know what the special method Netheril mentioned is. Is it serious?"

Faced with this situation, the students reacted quickly. As expected of the children of high-ranking officials, the first thought that came to their mind was to default on the debt.

"Well... I have a case here. After Netheril issued a notice on the Magic Intellectual Property Protection Law, Norse Mythology was the first to jump out and say that Netheril's behavior was unreasonable and they did not accept this kind of law.

Afterwards, within half an hour, Netheril announced the sale of a series of anti-Norse magic balls, including anti-Rune, anti-Gandor, etc., and a magic design for breaking the Nordic barrier was also leaked.

Next, Norse mythology expressed its agreement with Netheril's magic intellectual property protection law, and said that there was a problem with the barrier and it needed to be replaced urgently. It hoped that all major forces would not approach the range of the Nordic barrier during this period.

Heh…heh, it’s great to have a God of Magic, but they use magic knowledge as a tool to make money. How can they be considered followers of the God of Magic? Doesn’t the God of Magic care about his followers?”

The further she talked, the darker Rossweisse's face became, and in the end she sounded like someone who was complaining about sour grapes because she couldn't get them.

That’s right. If other forces were to plunder gold coins from my hometown, it would be strange if I wasn’t upset.

"Little Rossweisse, I'd like to ask what the charging standards are for Netheril."

After hearing the lesson from Norse mythology, the students realized that they could not evade the debt, so they asked how much they had to pay. If the amount was not much, they did not mind paying it.

"Each magician pays a fee based on their level and the magic they use to obtain a corresponding license. The lowest license fee is 500,000 Zeni per month, and the higher the level, the more expensive it is. After reaching a certain level, the fee is charged as a percentage of personal income or expenses. The cost of large-scale magic that cannot be used by one person and the magic research fees of various forces are calculated separately."

Rossweisse almost fainted as she uttered these words tremblingly. She was S-level and took the highest fixed damage.

"hiss--"

Hearing this, all the magicians on the field gasped.

I'm very sorry, Teacher Rossweisse. I myself didn't expect that the group of former terrorists who turned out to be Netheril's magician witch had set up this trap a year ago. If I had known it earlier, I would never have opened the library to them. As for now...it's a done deal. Just think of it as playing a game and getting stronger by spending money. I'll pray that the money you have to pay is not too much.

While everyone was shocked by the news, Sid silently prayed for Rossweisse in the back.

Chapter 45: Lan Yu Asagi's Strange Luck

"Gulu... So strong."

Looking at the black figure on the screen that easily crushed the Fourth True Ancestor, Lan Yu Asagi sighed.

"It is very strong, but the photographer's skills are a bit poor. In fact, this can be turned into a close-up according to the atmosphere, using the perspective of the Fourth True Ancestor to show the oppressive feeling of the shadow. And oh, here..."

"Stop, stop, stop, you're treating this as a movie and even commenting on it.

This is the world's top-notch battle video, and it's not a one-shot battle like the one between the Emperor of Netheril and the Forgotten Warlord, which is aesthetically pleasing. It's the strongest battle that fully demonstrates the strength of both parties. It's good to have it to watch."

Listening to Sid's comments next door, Lan Yu Asagi's mouth twitched and she started to complain. This comment ruined the atmosphere in an instant.

"...Indeed, it's just a pity that such a battle could not be recorded perfectly."

He turned his head so as not to let Lan Yu Asagi see the expression on his face. Although he didn't think he would reveal any expression that might reveal his identity, after previous reflection, Sid felt that he still had to be cautious and strengthen his training as a supporting actor.

"What are you thinking about? Get ready and go eat. It will be too late if you don't go to the cafeteria now. Don't lose to me again in the match this afternoon. It will be embarrassing."

It's not shameful. It's really not shameful to lose to you. Is it really appropriate for you, a cheating player who can play deathmatch across two or even three major classes, to beat me, a supporting role?

Sid secretly glanced at Aoi Asagi who was packing her backpack and couldn't help but complain in his heart.

He came to Gengami Island because he felt that after the three worlds merged, various crises would arise, and that a stage suitable for powerful shadow masters would be born.

As we all know, where there is a villain, there is a protagonist, and Asagi Aoi is one of the candidates he suspects to be the protagonist.

Aiba Asagi's luck is so weird.

In a previous actual combat training, he was paired with Aoi Asagi.

Don't complain about why a magician would be matched with a magic swordsman on the training ground. The school's explanation is "It is because the enemy will definitely give priority to killing you in battle, so you must have experience in fighting against magic swordsmen."

As a warlock, he thought this made sense, so he made some automatic defense, short-distance movement, and rebound magic overnight and gave them to Gamma and the witches of Netheril.

As for him, he didn't need any of that. Even if someone could break through his magic and get close to him, he wouldn't mind punching that person's head off.

Let's get back to the topic. In fact, if a warlock fights a magic swordsman, it's hard to say at a high level, but at a low level, the magic swordsman will definitely win.

Then, in that battle, he discovered the strangeness of Aoi Asagi. The attacks he launched on Aoi Asagi would be corrected by a mysterious force in a strange way to prevent Aoi Asagi from suffering any serious harm.

That mysterious power is very strong, extremely strong. It can help Aoi Asagi cheat in front of Na Yue-chan. It must be at least an SS.

Of course he could ignore the mysterious force and force the attack back on track, but that was not something that a supporting role like Sid could do, so he chose to let that force modify his attack.

After his observation afterwards, he concluded that the power should be a protective spell involving fate and luck, but Aiba Asagi herself seemed to be unaware that she was under a protective spell.

He has a mysterious identity that even he himself does not know, he hides his own strength, he is in an employment relationship with the official, his actual combat performance is as middle to lower class as his, and he has the C+ or B- strength that he has achieved after only one year of training, which is equivalent to his 17 years of hard training.

With this configuration, even if she is not the protagonist in the light novel, she is at least the female lead.

He has to complain here that the talents of Asagi Aoi and Nagisa Akatsuki are really like cheats. As human beings, they are on par with the descendants of gods and demons, especially Nagisa Akatsuki.

Gama once showed him the school's talent evaluation of its students, and it said that Nagisa Akatsuki and Asagi Aoi had similar talents.

But the actual situation is that Nagisa Akatsuki's talent is one level higher than Asagi Aoi's, but for some reason, the spiritual energy in Nagisa Akatsuki's body is always less, as if it was sucked away by something, which leads to Nagisa Akatsuki being evaluated as having a talent similar to Asagi Aoi.

It's not that Lan Yu and Asagi have poor talents. These two are extremely talented. Even if they don't train seriously, they can at least reach A or A+ in the future. Pure-blooded mythical races with less talent probably can't compare to them, so...how did they manage to be ordinary people before the fusion of worlds? The fusion of worlds will not enhance talents.

"Wait a minute, I'll pack my backpack... Uh, Asagi, you don't have to wait for me, go eat first."

"Hey! Why?"

Hearing this, Lan Yu Asagi, who was walking in front, turned around and looked at Sid, only to find that Sid was looking out the window with his head down, with a very fake smile on his face.

Subconsciously, I followed Sid's gaze and saw that at the end of Sid's sight, a woman with long black hair was exuding a powerful aura. She smiled and waved at Sid, motioning him to come over.

"Zi-"

A zipper sound came into Lanyu Asagi's ears. She turned around and saw Sid taking out a suit that looked very high-end from his backpack.

"Sid, what are you doing?"

"My sister wants to take me to meet someone and asked me to dress formally."

After saying something perfunctory, Sid turned and left.

"That's...your sister!"

----

"Sister, who exactly is the person you want to take me to meet? You are still keeping me in suspense. Is it too late?"

Following Claire to the back of the school, Sid asked curiously as he looked at the magic circles everywhere.

He looked through the information Gama had recently given him yesterday. According to Gama, the gathering place for the teams was behind the school. After all, it was impossible for all members of a team to be from the same class.

In other words, this place is now an amusement park for the children of high-ranking officials. After all, those who can put together a team at this stage cannot be ordinary people.

"Didn't I tell you?"

Claire made a puzzled sound.

Sid looked at her and blinked, and Claire blinked as well.

"Sister, you didn't tell me before, maybe you didn't want to whet my appetite, but simply forgot about it."

"Again."
