The Wizard: Starting by Scamming the Demon God

Page 114

Rona watched this scene in amazement, spun around on the spot, and smelled the fragrance of the flowers. Curious, Rona picked a red flower and was surprised to find that it was real!

It really turned into a flower!

It's not just simple illusion magic!

Transformation magic, how amazing!

But then, Lorna paused, realizing that if the flowers were real, then wouldn't the food and water also be...?

Realizing what had happened, Lorna quickly ran to the bread and water to check, and was pleasantly surprised to find that they were real too!

This delighted her immensely; with such magical transformation, everything else would be much easier.

However, is this really the case?

"Puff~"

Just as Lorna was rejoicing at the wonder of the transformation magic, Ein let out a frustrated cry and then slumped wearily onto Lorna's shoulder.

Although transformation magic is a racial magic of fairies and elves, such a large-scale real transformation is still very difficult for it at present.

However, if it's just strenuous, that's fine...

Upon hearing Ain's voice, Rona helped it up and quickly looked at the others. To her surprise, she found that the people around her were not happy about the flowers and food...

Of course, it's not that they weren't emotionally affected at all; they felt more fear...

And a sense of relief...

Lorna and Ain were unaware that similar things had happened before, or rather, every year at this time. In order to provide a comfortable environment for outsiders, the Kingdom of Itra would specially open its granaries and distribute food so that they could have a full meal.

Firstly, it was an ancient ritual that showcased the "benevolence" of the nobility, and many nobles enjoyed the feeling of rescuing people from dire straits. Secondly...

This is also a last meal before execution!

Although the rules stipulate that blood sacrifices can only be performed on androids, how can androids without souls compare to real humans?

In this brutal game, there are those who mix real humans with androids to be sacrificed together. Since the country is so chaotic, no one will say anything if there are fewer people.

Transformation magic can cleanse the fortress of its grime, but it cannot cleanse the darkness in their hearts…

Even just a little bit...

This is also why Ain is frustrated...

Lorna quickly realized this as well, and immediately sighed, it seemed she still had a lot to do.

"How interesting! Is this the transformation magic of fairies and elves?"

Just as Rona was sighing, Filo came to Rona's side and looked around at the flowers, food and water with emotion.

“Princess Philo!” Rona was initially surprised, then looked at Philo warily. Although she didn’t know the details of the feud between Isaac and Philo, it was easy to see that Isaac and this princess were at odds.

Therefore, she didn't particularly like the princess either.

Of course, Angel didn't like it much either. Although Isaac's attitude towards her was okay, she always felt that Angel looked at Isaac with a strange look. It was a wary look, a look at a madman!

She really doesn't like this!

But the one she hates the most is Philo!

A nobleman, and someone who had a conflict with Isaac!

That's why she was so wary the moment Philo appeared.

"Don't be nervous. At least in this matter, I'm here to help you," Philo smiled slightly.

Rona frowned slightly. She wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt that... Philo's smile carried a hint of kindness.

Chapter 166 War begins!

Angel: "..."

Looking at the two thousand-plus Great Sword Demons in front of her, even though she had known beforehand, she was still very shocked when she actually saw them.

More than two thousand second-tier combat power...

Is this guy really just a second-tier wizard?

Are mad witches really this outrageous?

"It shouldn't be," Angel shook her head, thinking of Philo, who was also a mad witch. "It's Isaac who's the most outrageous one."

"Astaroth, Time Cycle." With that thought, Angel summoned the original text. The magical pages turned, and golden magical marks flew out. Behind her, the phantom of Astaroth appeared, assisting her in casting the spell.

This is one of the reasons why she thinks Isaac is outrageous.

In the future she had envisioned, the magic book she gave away was actually meant for Isaac's own use. But when it actually came to fruition, she was surprised to find that the magic book alone was not enough!

Transcending the future...

It should not be.

While casting the spell, Angel glanced at Isaac furtively.

It must be that her control over the original text is not enough. If the second level can transcend the future, she dares not imagine how heaven-defying Isaac really is!

At the same time, Astaroth behind Angel narrowed his eyes as he looked at the greatsword demon in front of him. There was no mistake, this was no ordinary magical creation. He could smell the scent of two old friends inside!

Unfortunately, that's all He knew. He only knew that He recognized these two people, but he didn't know exactly who they were.

The reason why even a demon comparable to a god couldn't see through it all goes back to the origins of the mad witch.

The earliest mad witches were inspired by the earliest trading rituals, which involved trading with the Outer Gods to gain extraordinary power. However, as everyone knows, the Outer Gods were all rotten to the core and not so easy to deal with.

Wizards often died in the course of transactions.

So, someone came up with the idea that since trading carries such high risks, why not take a big gamble?

Just go all in!

Thus began the most insane era of witchcraft!

The mad witches of that era made deals with the Outer Gods entirely out of sheer madness!

Of course, most mad witches die a very tragic death, their bodies and souls devoured without leaving a trace. But the world is full of wonders, and there are always a few outliers who stand out.

Although these success stories were extremely rare, they greatly inspired the legendary wizards who had neither status nor power at the time, leading to an even more fervent craze for mad wizardry.

But so far, apart from a very few mad witches with special talents, the vast majority of mad witches are gambling with their lives, putting everything they have into the game!

(Although there weren't many to begin with)

What truly made the Mad Witches group take notice of even the gods was the emergence of a power called the "Gate of Legends," a power created for the Mad Witches by a great being who even made the Outer Gods tremble.

Its ability was initially very simple: the absolute principle of transactions—that is, after a transaction is completed, the Outer Gods cannot discover the identity of the transaction wizard by any means.

This means that the outer god's box function has been banned.

Why do we say "initially"?

Because the abilities of any legendary wizard are always linked to their fame and influence, this thing will grow slowly!

This proved to be true. With the help of the Gate of Legends, one mad witch after another survived the deal with the Outer Gods. At the same time, the Gate of Legends also grew stronger because of the increasingly powerful mad witches, eventually even able to tamper with the deal and help them cheat!

Stepping on the right foot with the left foot and ascending to the air is an example of this.

However, the very gate that brought him success also brought him downfall. Perhaps due to his increasingly stable life and high social status, the Mad Witch's ambition gradually waned.

Today, the mad witches are content with simply trading with the Outer Gods, completely lacking the madness of the ancient mad witches who would gamble everything.

Of course, this guy in front of me is an exception...

Astaroth glanced at Isaac, quickly assisted Angel in casting a spell, and then his figure vanished.

“Sorry, He… dislikes mad witches a bit.” Angel shrugged helplessly at Isaac.

Isaac nodded, indicating his understanding. After all, this guy had half of his essence stolen by the Mad Witch. However, he just didn't know why such a powerful figure would become Angel's familiar, even if it was just a projection within a projection. After all, his status was still there.

Even though half of his power was taken away, he still holds the power over time and is one of the top demons.

To this, Astaroth could only say, what do you think, Mad Witch?

Of all the powers in the world, the power of time and space is undoubtedly the most favored by people, and the Mad Witch is no exception.

Thus, this demon who wielded the power of time and space fell into the mad witch's sights...

Years ago, the power of space was completely taken away, but now, thanks to the special nature of the power of time, it is still relatively secure.

But He knew that if things continued like this, He would eventually follow the same path!

They've also squandered the power of time!

And at that very moment, Angel was born with the original text!

The original text, the highest level of witch power!

Moreover, it is a time-based classic.

Furthermore, although both are powers of time, Angel's original text—the Book of Time—possesses the heaven-defying power to alter the past. It was at this moment that He finally realized why He had never been able to truly master the power to alter the past!

Because this power awaits its master, Angel.

Therefore, Astaroth, who was already worried, immediately decided to defy the ancestral teachings of the demons and went directly to Angel to serve her. All he asked was to change the past if he were ever targeted by a legendary wizard and had his power over time taken away.

Of course, if possible, you could also look for a plan to directly seize the original text!

She has it, but how can it compare to what I have?

Of course, Astaroth doesn't have this idea at this stage, so he appears somewhat personified in his interactions with Angel.

Getting back to the main point, Isaac looked at the seemingly unchanged greatsword demons in front of him and asked curiously, "How long does it last? What are the specific effects?"

"One month. After one month, the spell will be cast again. Also, because there are too many, I have reduced some of the effects. The time loop only affects their energy structure, that is, their lifespan will cycle within one day. Apart from that, neither injuries nor fatal blows are within the scope of the time loop."

"...Damn it!" After a moment of silence, Isaac couldn't help but swear.

To be honest, at that moment, he admitted that he was attracted to Astaroth!

Is the power of time really this domineering?

Although his relationship with Angel seems to be going well at the moment, he has never forgotten that this woman is a witch, and most likely the kind of witch whose mind has been warped, so he should not get too close to her.

Besides, she has it, but how can it be as comfortable as mine?

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
