Novel Full Chapter 666 Elena’s Special Magic
—–
As Elena acquired her new Magic Circle, a lot of crazy things happened at the same time, more than we could had thought possible. Originally, we always thought that these things were straightforward, you get an element and spells for that element and that’s it.
But Magic Circles aren’t just that, thanks to my ability to create a connection between the Magic Circle and the user’s “other self”, their Avatar from Arcadia, their abilities from that world can be inherited to an extent. 𝙚𝙤𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒐𝙧𝙜
And it seemed that with Elena, such a thing was even greater, as she had an unnaturally strong connection with her Arcadia’s Avatar, something I finally realized as I saw her body temporarily transform, gaining a few of her Avatar’s traits.
Of course, the Voice of the World made this very clear too.
[You have awakened a [Magic Circle (Tier 1: Rank 6)] within [Elena]’s Heart!]
[The [Dark Abyss Sword Magic Circle] has gained 600 Darkness Runes!]
[The [Magic Circle] has acquired the following Engraved Spells: [Summon Darkness Swords], [Mana Slash], [Phantom Blade], [Blue Oni Demoness Transformation], [Pseudo Sword Ki Aura]!]
“W-What with my appearance?! I became like my Avatar in BNLO?! There’s no way this is real…” My daughter was shaken, even her height had increased a lot, and she had developed a few muscles.
This magic somehow worked as a kind of Physique as well. It had a transformation Spell included within her Magic Circle, and the rest of her abilities weren’t like Rita’s at all, even if they had the same Darkness Element.
“C-Calm down honey.” I gently patted her shoulders, which had grown almost twice as large. “Breathe and relax.”
“A-Alright…” She slowly closed her eyes and concentrated, her body slowly started to go back to normal, emanating an aura of rich Mana.
“Phew… Ah, I’m back to normal.” She sighed in relief, glancing at her own hands and the rest of her body. “Was that… my ability?”
“Something like that, we call that an Engraved Spell, the more runes you have inside your magic circle, the more spells you can have, and the stronger they become.” I explained. “Usually we all begin at Tier 1, Rank 1, but you’re so talented you’re Rank 6 out of Tier 1… And you got a lot of spells too, check them.”
I showed her a paper where I had written everything the World’s Voice had whispered to me. My daughter was surprised because the Spells were like her in-game Skills.
“This is awesome…” She was amazed. “But- Ugh, my stomach hurts… And my head too…”
She felt sickly right away, that transformation drained mostly all her Mana in one go, and now she was experiencing Mana Sickness, which happens when you overuse Mana and exhaust it all in one go.
“There, there.”
I comforted her while she rested on my bed, and then she suddenly fell asleep. I guess we’ll have to leave the magic practice for later, she’s exhausted.
“Incredible, your daughter seems to be the most talented out of all of us so far.” Mark said. “And her spells are surely unique. I assume it allows her to exert a fraction of her Avatar’s powers. DarkReaper is one of the strongest Sword Users in BNLO after all, so even a fraction is a lot.”
“Wait, what? She can make up swords? Darkness and Phantom Swords? That’s cheating! I only get some bullets…” Rita seemed a bit jealous of my daughter.
“She can also transform into a Blue Oni despite not having a Physique related to it yet, impressive indeed.” Lily nodded. “But I guess it makes sense, seeing how our powers also are derived from our in-game Avatars!”
“Indeed.” I nodded. “What do you think?” I asked the Great Spirit.
The Great Spirit floated around Elena, analyzing her with her sharp green eyes while nodding, and then flew back to me.
“She’s alright, don’t worry. She’ll get better soon. However, to get used to her spells, she has to exercise quite a lot, she’s not in the best form. I think she felt so exhausted because her transformation forces her body to get all… you know, swollen and big.” The Great Spirit explained. “She couldn’t take it, so she ended too tired. Bring her to the gym from now on at the very least.”
“Ah, sure… Is that it?” I asked. “I feel like she’s a bit special.”
“Well… I guess!” She sighed, crossing her small wood-made arms. “Her connection with her In-game Avatar is incredibly strong, and when you gave her a Magic Circle and made this connection an ethereal bond, she gained a lot more of her Avatar’s powers than usual. It’s all about the mind, you see. She has a really strong emotional connection, to the point she believed her Avatar was just herself even before learning that Arcadia was not just a video game.”
“T-That’s the power of chunni for you.” Mark laughed a bit.
“I-I guess she really liked her Avatar, huh?” Rita contained her impulse to laugh at my daughter.
“Heheh, that’s a bit cute.” Lily giggled.
“Hey now! That thought process is what gave her this much power, so don’t be like that…” I reprimanded them. “Anyways… Let’s bring her back to her room.”
While her friends were logged-in BNLO, I gently placed my daughter over her bed to let her sleep, leaving a note in her phone saying that we also would go to Arcadia for the time being.
With that done, and after Rita and Lily got back home, we logged in. Mark said that if he was being annoying, that he could go back home, but honestly I like if he’s around, so I let him stay for the time being.
Logging-in at the same time as him in the same room is a bit romantic… Maybe.
Once I opened my eyes again, I found myself in the Forest of Beginnings, inside of my Mushroom Castle, sitting above the wooden throne.
“Alright then, now that we’re done with that, what should we do?” I wondered, only to be surprised by a sudden System Window popping up.
[A New Update Patch has been added to the Game. The [Invaders of the Underworld] Season has begun!]
[Warning! A [Underworld’s Gate] and two [Nether Portals] have spawned outside of your Territory!]
Wait, what?!
