Chapter 20: A Pleasant Surprise
Chapter 20: A Pleasant Surprise
"You took the demon sword back, what about this mask?" Although the demon sword leaving his hand made Ulysses breathe a sigh of relief, he didn't want to give the killer a chance to be resurrected.
"Master, you don't have to worry about it. Although I can't deal with the killer, I have no problem dealing with a mask." Aya had a confident look on her face.
"In the name of the book familiar spirit Aya, open the Dark Dimension Space." Following Aya's spell, a black space crack appeared above the mask. The crack seemed to have a strong suction force, and it easily sucked in the mask and sword on the ground.
"S- Space magic!" Seeing this scene, Ulysses was shocked. You have to know, space magic was called the ultimate magic amongst all magic, and there had only been three mages that could use space magic in human history, and they were all the strongest people in the world at that time. There was such a recognized rule in the magic world: If a mage had space magic, this mage would have the world.
In fact, in the eyes of most people, space magic should no longer be called magic. Although it used magic energy to activate it, it didn't have any other magical characteristics. Unlike other magic, the space magic spells didn't start from level one. Its most basic spell was the teleportation spell, a level seven spell. In total, there were only a dozen space magic spells. However, among these spells, there were level nine spell "Absolute Domain", which was the strongest defensive magic among all magic; level nine spell "Space Destruction Cannon", which was the strongest offensive magic, and the level ten spell that could only be used by gods in the legend, "Space Travel". In addition, no one had a way to determine who had the talent for space magic. The three mages with space magic in history were originally a light mage, a fire mage, and a water mage. All these gave space magic the reputation of "God's Magic". It meant that this was not magic that humans could master, only those who were favored by God could possess it.
"Yes, this is a kind of space magic, called the Space Storage Magic. Its function is to send objects into a self-created space. However, this magic was not cast by me, but was attached to the Book of the Demon King, Lord Astaroth. All I did was to open up the dark dimension space in the Book of the Demon King. Master, did you think that this magic was cast by me? Ha! Ha! So funny! Master, if I had such a power, I would have already thrown that trash masked man into another dimension!" Looking at Ulysses's dazed face, Aya couldn't help but laugh out loud. There were even tears in the purple eyes.
"You are right." Ulysses scratched his head embarrassedly, and then asked, "are you sure that it's fine to put the mask and the sword in the dark dimension space?"
"Of course. Master, don't you know that living objects can't be placed in the storage space? Without life, the mask is just like a normal mask. So don't worry about it, master. But master, you should know about this kind of common sense, right?" Aya opened her big purple eyes and looked at Ulysses's face curiously, as if she wanted to see something on it.
"Cough! Cough! Of course, I know!" Ulysses turned his face to the side slightly, for fear that Aya would find out that he was lying.
"Right! Aya, what about these people on the ground?" Ulysses asked an inconsequential question to change the subject. In fact, he already knew that these people might no longer be able to open their eyes. The woman named Liss had been dismembered, so she was completely dead. The little noble girl who had been stabbed by the killer had several wounds on her chest, and Rasputin, who was thrown by the killer to the side of the road, may have already stopped breathing, and had probably entered eternal sleep.
"Yes! Master!" Aya stopped looking at Ulysses and flew towards the few people who fell on the ground.
"Well, let me see! Ah! This is really bad!" Aya's exclamation made Ulysses feel guilty.
"I'm sorry, if I had made up my mind earlier, maybe you wouldn't have to die. Really, I'm really sorry. The killer who killed you has now been taken out by me, so take this as my parting gift to you. I hope you can enter heaven!" Ulysses prayed silently for them, facing their bodies. This was the only thing he could do for them now.
"One was dismembered, one is severely injured in the chest and has lost a lot of blood, and the other has broken bones and are bleeding all over the body. The trash masked man was really ruthless." Aya looked at the bodies of those people and exclaimed with emotion.
"Yes! The crime that guy committed is enough to kill him a hundred times! One day, I'm going to smash that damn mask to pieces." Ulysses gritted his teeth.
"Healing such injuries is quite troublesome. Forget it, it's not worth wasting Master's precious magic energy for them. Master, let's go home!" Aya turned around and returned to Ulysses.
"Yes! Tonight is really a tiring night! Let's go home!" At first, Ulysses didn't pay attention to Aya's words at all, plus he was really tired, so he agreed to Aya's proposal without thinking.
However, after three steps, Ulysses began to feel something was wrong. What was wrong? He carefully recalled what Aya had just said. Suddenly, an electric light flashed in his mind, and he finally discovered what made him feel wrong.
"Aya!!" Ulysses uttered the biggest shout tonight.
"What, what's the matter? Master? Is there something wrong with your body? Did the use of Judgment of Abyss leave some side effects?" Ulysses' yell made Aya jump. She immediately asked about Ulysses' physical condition.
"No, it's not my problem! It's the sentence you just said! You said that it's very troublesome to heal their injuries? That means they can still be saved? Answer me! Aya!" In a hurry, Ulysses spoke incoherently.
"Yes! Yes, except for the woman who was dismembered, the other two people can still be saved. Master, do you want to save them? If you do this, master, you have to use a lot of magic energy! I advise you to ignore them." Knowing that it wasn't Ulysses's physical problem, Aya breathed a sigh of relief.
"The magic energy is not important at all, please tell me the way to save them. This is an order, Aya." Ulysses ordered Aya with a serious tone that he had never had before.
"Yes, master! I'll tell you the spell that would heal them. In fact, if you hadn't accepted the power of the demon sword Judgment of Abyss, you wouldn't have been able to use this spell. And after using this spell, your magic energy will temporarily disappear, is that okay?" Aya looked at Ulysses helplessly and tried to persuade him.
"Tell me!" Ulysses said without hesitation.
"Yes! Master." Aya sighed and told Ulysses the spell.
"Your compassion is everywhere! Your heart is very gentle! Holy light, come! Please gather here to heal the unfortunate people in front of me! Holy Healing Light!" A brilliant white light illuminated the entire street, under this white light, the fatal wound on the chest of the little noble girl slowly disappeared, and the sign of breathing also appeared on her chest. Although Rasputin's appearance couldn't be seen clearly because he was hidden in the black cloak, judging from the floating of his veil, death also moved away from him.
"O, okay, let's go home now." Ulysses was already out of breath after using a spell that exceeded his limit.
"No, the man in black cloak needs further treatment, and it is a treatment that cannot be done here. Master, are you going to take him back?" Aya looked at Ulysses with a strange smile in her eyes.
"Of course!" Ulysses lifted up Rasputin's body and carried him in his arms without hesitation. To his surprise, his body was unexpectedly light, but he didn't think much about it.
Aya followed Ulysses and headed to their home. But before leaving, she put an amethyst bracelet exactly the same as the one she transformed into and a small note on the chest of the noble little girl with dazzling golden hair. Of course, she did it behind Ulysses' back. As for the purpose, no one else but her knew.
'Hehe! I don't know what expression Master will have when he finds out this? This is what he gets for refusing to be intimate with me. Let me see how will Master handle this!' Aya, who was flying behind Ulysses, snickered quietly for some reason, her expression was indescribably cute.
Although it was summer, Ulysses felt a chill for some reason, as if something bad was about to happen to him.
