Type-Moon, the Path of a Magician

"You are trying to bully others by taking advantage of their power, eh? You little brat, what's the point of hiding behind someone else?" Bao Shi Weng was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, but he finally gave in.

"Then do these three things. If you continue to bargain, be careful or I will turn against you, you little brat."

"make a deal."

After some intense bargaining, the two finally settled on a price that was acceptable to both parties. This market-like bargaining stunned everyone around them.

"Sly little brat."

Bao Shi Weng's face turned red and he blew his beard. It was obvious that he was not satisfied with the price he got for the Bao Shi Sword.

"It's nothing cunning. It was you who asked for the high price first, old man."

"Same here, little brat."

The two looked at each other, neither of them giving in.

Their identities and connections to each other meant there was nothing to be shy about between them.

"Let's stop here for now."

After confirming the price, Bao Shi Weng looked at Xia Yuan and said, "Although you have successfully become one of us, you should be aware that the amount of knowledge you currently possess is not enough to explain the scale of your current power."

"In fact, the real power you can exert now is far less than the output of that girl Aozaki Aoko. When you master the next stage, I will come to you again."

After saying that, he was ready to leave.

"Wait a moment." Xia Yuan called out to Bao Shi Weng who was about to leave.

"What's wrong, brat, do you have anything else to do?"

"Well, as you said, there are indeed many parts that I cannot understand and explain, and I would like to get answers from you."

"Oh? Are you thinking of troubling me now?"

"The wise are my teachers. After all, you are a senior. There are some things that only you can answer for me."

"Then ask quickly. I have to hurry back to research the transformation system of Magical Girl 3.0."

"..."

This old pervert.

Xia Yuan was speechless, and felt even more disgusted with this old man who still liked magical girls at his age.

But the questions that need to be asked still need to be asked. He glanced at the surrounding monarchs who were still watching this place, and the meaning was self-evident.

"You still need to find a quiet place, right, little brat? You really ask for too much. In that case, then follow me." Bao Shi Weng raised his hand to open a dimensional rift and walked in first.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Kenneth.

I have something to do with Zelrich, and I will explain it to you when I come back."

Before leaving, Xia Yuan did not forget to say goodbye to Kenneth, who was already numb from shock.

"You, me, him..."

Kenneth wanted to ask something, but because he had so many questions, his words got stuck in his mouth and he didn't know where to start.

"Don't be so fussy, little brat. Are you coming or not?"

"Come here."

Xia Yuan nodded, followed quickly, and his body passed into the space crack.

The two disappeared as the space-time rift closed, leaving only the confused crowd. Soon they were in an uproar.

"Who on earth is that young man? How could he have such a conversation with Lord Zelrich?"

"Three things, that is, three requests. Lord Zellich also said that the boy was the same as him. What did he mean?"

"The ancestor of the Dead Apostles? Or... a magician?!"

As this thought arose in their minds, the monarchs looked at them in disbelief.

Finally, they turned their heads at the same time and looked at Kenneth, who was also in shock.

"Lord of the Mineral Department, you brought that young man in just now. Do you know who he is?"

Seeing these powerful and unfriendly monarchs asking him questions at the same time, Kenneth wanted to reply loudly, "You ask me, how do I know?"

However, due to the etiquette of the nobility, he still had to maintain El-Melloi's steady aristocratic temperament and replied calmly: "That's my new disciple... maybe?"

"Disciple? Maybe?"

"I don't know the details, so if you have any questions, wait until they come out and ask them. Sorry, I have a lot of things to deal with, so I'll leave now."

After saying that, Kenneth walked quickly and left without looking back.

He now finally understood what Xia Yuan meant when he said, "Wait a moment, thank you for your help," before he came in with him.

That brat really gave me a scare.

However, what he and you are curious about is, what secret is Xia Yuan hiding?

What exactly happened to him in the Holy Grail during that last period of time?

Like other monarchs, he was simply madly curious.

But Xia Yuan had already followed Bao Shi Weng into the dimensional rift, so he had to wait until he came out before asking about these things.

Chapter 76: The Instructions of Baoshi Weng (Blade Extra)

The residence of Jewel Master in the dimensional rift is not as bizarre as the magicians imagined, it is even a bit ordinary.

There were no electric lights in the grey room. The only source of light was the chandelier above which flickered with a faint flame. After taking a clear look at the entire room, the decoration inside could be described as shabby.

The only furniture in the room, apart from a huge desk and chair, was the surrounding dark walls and bare floor.

"What's wrong, kid? Are you surprised by the environment here?" Bao Shi Weng glanced at Xia Yuan who walked into the room and asked.

"Yes, a little bit. The decoration here is much more... simple than I imagined."

There was indeed nothing luxurious about the dark room, it looked extremely simple.

"Hmph, vulgar. I don't need sleep or rest, and I don't stay here most of the time. Those extra luxuries are of no use to me."

"Come to think of it, the decoration here seems to have not changed for hundreds of years, but this is a dimensional rift between parallel worlds, so there will be no dust."

After saying that, Bao Shi Weng sat back in his chair and continued, "So what exactly do you want to consult me ​​about? As your senior and someone who has some connection with the Third Law, I can give you some relevant suggestions."

"grateful."

Xia Yuan nodded slightly, walked quickly to Bao Shi Weng, and then he told him his troubles and requests.

……

……

"There is something wrong with your physical condition, so you want me to help you develop your body?"

After listening to Xia Yuan's story, Zelrich looked at him with strange eyes.

"Are you kidding me? Do you still need my help to develop your body?"

"Yes, I need it."

Xia Yuan nodded, agreeing with Zelrich's statement.

He said seriously: "My body is not the original flesh and blood body, but it was reforged by the hands of the origin. Although there is no feeling of discomfort, I can always feel that there is something wrong."

"I think there is something about this body that I have not been able to grasp and discover, so I would like to ask you to help me check what is abnormal about this body."

"It's an anomaly. But, you said your original body was destroyed?"

Bao Shi Weng looked at Xia Yuan with a strange expression.

"What happened? It was torn apart by the collision of the Third Law and the Second Law, and was annihilated in the dimensional rift."

"Don't you see?"

"No, I can't see it at all." Bao Shi Weng shook his head.

"The fit between your soul and this body is natural no matter how you look at it. I can't see any trace of reshaping."

but……

"If what you say is true, then you are at a big loss, kid."

"A huge loss?" Xia Yuan was stunned, somewhat puzzled by Bao Shi Weng's words.

"Boy, don't you know what the value of your previous body is?"

"My body? Is that the value of a first-generation magus' body with only a dozen magic circuits?"

"Haha, what a shallow answer. Boy, you don't think your body is ordinary, do you? If that's the case, then you are blind."

"Think about it carefully. Since your soul has the same status as the [Foreigner], your body naturally has considerable value as well."

"The soul is energy and the body is a container. The human soul and body have always been matched. How can a body that can accommodate the soul of a god be ordinary?" Bao Shiweng gave him a strange look.

"To measure the value of that body only by the number of magic circuits is simply a waste of resources. Only those fools who think they are mage nobles would do such a thing."

Bao Shi Weng made such a sarcastic comment on Xia Yuan's doubts.

"That is the best material for a god to possess. Even if you call it... the Holy Grail, the Philosopher's Stone, or the omnipotent object, it is not an exaggeration, or even less than that. That body does not contain any traces of ether or this world. It can be said to be a completely ordinary person. The value of that body is immeasurable. If those secret gods or other monsters knew that such a body existed in this world, they would definitely fight for it."

"That body really has such value? Are you kidding me? How come I have never noticed it?"

"Hmph, do I need to scare you?"

Bao Shi Weng blew his beard and said unhappily, "You are blind. You have lived an ordinary life for so long that you naturally fail to appreciate its value. It is such a waste. I was planning to see how far you can grow, but I didn't expect you to lose such a treasure so soon."

"Let me put it this way. If you use that body as a magic material to refine magic equipment, you can even create weapons with rules that do not exist in this world. I would not be surprised even if a god uses it to forge a second Sword of Separation or Sword of Stars."

"..."

"There's no other way. Even if you say so, my body has been torn apart in the collision between the third and second methods. I guess there's not even ashes left now." Xia Yuan shook his head, looking somewhat helpless.

"So it's really destroyed?"

Bao Shiweng stroked his beard, looking a little strange. "I always feel that things will never be that simple."

"As I said, your body and soul are both foreigners from outside this world. When you are accepted by this world, it means that they are given a whole new meaning. The value you possess is a whole new realm that transcends this world."

"Could such a treasure be destroyed so easily? Although I don't want to believe it, it is very reasonable for it to be destroyed by the tearing of the third and second laws at the same time. But this is too much of a coincidence, and I still find it hard to believe it."

"How about this, kid, come closer and let me check your body."

Xia Yuan nodded and took another step forward.

"You sit down and I'll guide you."

Xia Yuan sat on Bao Shi Weng's chair as instructed. The soft leather made him feel comfortable the moment he sat down. This feeling was much more comfortable than his own bed at home.

Although the room was a bargain, the furniture was not sparse at all. I have to say, this old man really knows how to enjoy himself.

"Then close your eyes and try to control this body of yours. Awaken the magic circuits and light the fire of the third law. Let me see what this body forged by the hand of the origin can do."

Xia Yuan closed his eyes as instructed by Bao Shi Weng, activated the third method with magic power, and tried to light up the magic circuits on his body.

This time was different from the small test when he had just been resurrected. He was desperately squeezing the limits of this body, trying to demonstrate the power of this body to his greatest ability.

As soon as he closed his eyes, Xia Yuan felt that he was in a boundless darkness, and he could not see anything in front of him. But as he lit up the third law deep in his soul, the light in this space gradually became brighter, and a pure white light ball rose in his hand, followed by countless golden cracks spreading out from under his feet like meridians, and finally completely brightened the darkness of the entire space.

These light paths that spread horizontally and vertically like webs are like the silk threads that make up a spider web, completing the network of this body. The only difference is that the ends of these webs are connected to square objects that are similar to flat octahedral crystals.

Xia Yuan was very sure that he had seen these spreading light paths.

This is his magic circuit.

The Count had once used a rough method to help him force open the magic circuits in his body. That was his first time to come into contact with these transparent light paths.

But at that time there were only a few paths of light in the darkness, but now this scene has turned the darkness into day.

If these light paths were real, he wouldn't dare to imagine what state his body had reached.

"Boy, what did you see?"

"Magic circuits, so many magic circuits. My magic circuits have increased countless times. Their number is unbelievable to me."

"How should I control them? Senior Bao Shi Weng."

"Use your senses to find the core of your body. I will transfer the magic power to your body, and you can figure out the rest."

There is no correct answer, and you can only rely on yourself to discover the mysteries of your body.

Bao Shi Weng raised his hand, opened a new door, and drew a large amount of magic power from the source of the parallel world, which was continuously input into his body.
