Mage Manual

"Hmm," Igula said calmly, "I've actually prepared several plans to deal with you."

Ash was a bit surprised: "I thought you guys would come and help me."

"I would like to join you, but didn't you say before that if you turned bad, you'd want us to stop you?" Harvey said, "You might become an Evil Mage, either becoming an extension of the Gods of Four Pillars or being controlled by someone's contract."

"If you're not you, I would definitely stop you," the Swindler said, "If you are still you, you would definitely beg me to stop you."

"Makes sense." Ash nodded, looking at Black Crow and answered directly, "I understand, you mean to kill me, right?"

"No," Black Crow shook his head, "If it's not your own will, I'll stop you."

"Then... what if it is my will?" Ash blinked, swallowing.

"I would help you."

Not only Ash and a few others, but even Gwen, who hadn't spoken all along, couldn't help but look over.

"If you seek to become stronger through killing, I can help you," Black Crow said, "There are so many bad people in this world, kill one batch and another grows. I am Ya Sha Jin's best killing tool, I can help you find them. Since they all deserve to die, rather let them become your stepping stones."

Igula couldn't help but counter, "What if there aren't that many bad people?"

"If even he has to choose the path of killing," Black Crow said, "I think we don't need to worry about that."

"But Ash, why did you suddenly bring up this hypothetical scenario?" Harvey asked, eating fries, "Are you planning to go on a slaughter spree?"

"Actually, after hearing you talk so seriously, I'm embarrassed to say I'm just bored because I'm full." Ash admitted, "Though I realize my thought is really too childish."

"Although I agree with your point," Igula said, "I feel you have even more childish things you want to say."

Ash spread his hands, laughed and said, "Instead of thinking of ways to become stronger after encountering trouble, why not find trouble for you, urging you to become stronger and help me. After all..."

"I'm also used to giving you all trouble."

Without a word, Igula threw a piece of seven-seared eye meat over, Ash bit into it, stood up and said, "Tamasi, let's start the second round!"

"Didn't you say you were full?"

"The main course filled me, now it's time for snacks." Ash suddenly remembered something, "By the way, Tamasi, next time don't say you're Ya Sha Jin's best killing tool, you have an even more prestigious title, don't you?"

Black Crow was taken aback.

"The best Chef of Ya Sha Jin!" Ash turned to Igula and said, "You know, Tamasi once told me that his cooking is better than Fox Lamp Icehouse's! We've already agreed that when we have the opportunity, he'll show us his pinnacle cooking skill of Ya Sha Jin..."

Black Crow hurriedly dragged Ash outside to prevent him from revealing more.

Igula watched the two disappear at the door and after a moment of silence suddenly asked Harvey, "Can you judge various bodily information of a target through their daily actions?"

"A basic ability of a Necromancer," Harvey answered.

"So—"

"I can't say."

"I haven't asked yet."

...

...

Void Realm, Distant Realm.

The four of Ash opened their eyes in the initial bubble, distributed the initial collection, and then flew away from the bubble, searching for the gigantic bubble where the ghost heritage was located.

But as they flew away from the bubble, the first thing that caught their eye wasn't the ghost heritage but the blood-red lightning.

A blood-red lightning as thick as the mountains fiercely pierced into the golden bubble of ghost heritage, continuously erupting with destruction power that made one's soul tremble, incessantly destroying the golden bubble!

The Holy Sanctuary Mage witnessing this scene had one thought rising in their hearts—

A Wonder!

The Divine Lords are finally going to intervene!
