After preparing for transmigration, Xia Yuan, a top player of storyline mages in his previous life, transmigrated into an NPC, and was even the fourth son of the newly born Duke of the Empire!
<...Chapter 42: Prophecy of Magic and the Girl's Plan
"It does seem that there will be no adverse consequences, at least not in the short term."
The physical condition of the beast is very normal, with no signs of disorder or decline.
After collecting the experimental data, Avis instructed the manager of the test site to continue to raise the beast alone and record the beast's physical condition once a month.
After finishing his observation of the Ooboros, Avis changed the venue. He planned to test several prophecy spells he had recently mastered.
Due to the short time, Anvis has only mastered a few spells so far.
Telepathic strike, precognitive attack, suppress good luck, flash of truth, and mirror silver divination.
Among them, the effect of Lingxi Strike is to predict the enemy's position, making the next attack almost certain to hit the target.
Predictive attack is just the opposite. It can predict the true direction of the enemy's next attack, so as to dodge it in advance.
Suppressing good luck is just like the name of the spell, it will turn a European emperor into a European emperor. For example, you may accidentally lose your wallet while walking, or you may accidentally burp while chanting.
However, the spell's effects last only a short time, and end immediately if the recipient encounters misfortune.
With Avis' current level of prophecy, the above magic that affects others cannot be cast on the recipients who are much stronger than Avis. Otherwise, the spell will most likely fail.
Flash of Truth is a special spell that allows the caster to ask a question to an unknown special being. Once a day, the accuracy rate is very high, but only a yes or no answer can be obtained.
The Mirror-Silver Divination technique originated from an ancient book in the bookshelf. If the first four spells belong to the popular spells of the prophecy school, then the Mirror-Silver Divination technique can be regarded as a secret.
This spell requires a specially processed moon mercury as a medium. When casting the spell, the caster needs a shallow basin filled with moon mercury as a prop.
Before preparing to do something, the caster can divine its outcome.
Depending on the results, different ripples will appear on the surface of the mercury. The caster can know whether the result of the action is good or bad through the feedback of the ripples.
If the waves are even and orderly, it means there will be a good result. If the waves are disorderly, it means there will be a bad result.
If there is no fluctuation on the surface of the mercury, it symbolizes that the predicted thing is beyond the ability of the predictor.
Moreover, as the prophet's level increases, this spell will have more changes, such as finding the location of some things.

Avis released a gray skylark, a very common first-level wind-type magical beast that often appears in groups in forest areas.
With his eyes fixed on the bird flying in the air, Avis unleashed a telepathic attack.
Then, a strange feeling suddenly arose in his heart: the next moment, the position of the gray skylark was a certain point.
He immediately sent a wind blade towards that direction. At this moment, the gray skylark flying in the air just turned a small corner and was caught off guard by the sudden attack and hit the wind blade.
However, due to the long distance, the power of the wind blade was severely attenuated, and it only knocked off a few gray feathers on the skylark's wings.
The grey skylark that was hit screamed and immediately directed its angry gaze towards Avis on the ground.
It dived downward, and when it was close enough, it flapped its wings violently, and a thin and solid wind blade instantly shot towards Avis.
Looking at the incoming wind blade, Avis took two steps to the right. The translucent wind blade passed by his side by a hair's breadth, hitting the reinforced ground and shattering into a turbulent flow.
Guessing that the gray skylark would be angered by the wind blade, he launched a predictive attack in advance when the bird dived.
As he passed by the wind blade, Avis locked onto the bird in the air, raised his hand, and cast a Suppress Good Luck spell on it.
The bird in midair suddenly felt something was wrong. It flapped its wings, and a trace of confusion flashed in its eyes. Then it put this feeling behind it and dived towards Avis again, intending to repeat the same trick.
But this time, when the bird approached Avis, its right wing suddenly twitched unnaturally. This instantly destroyed its balance, causing it to flutter in the air for a circle and a half, and then fell to the ground dizzy.
"Are your wings cramped?"
Avis gave Grey Skylark a strange look, and a pitch-black tentacle suddenly emerged from nowhere and tied it up tightly.
Then, ignoring its violent struggles, he stuffed it back into its original cage.

“HMMMMMM…Hehe——”
After a long-awaited nap, Fiona sat up, rubbing her eyes, and stretched her body a little with her two tender white hands pushing up against her head.
Having spent half a month cramming on some daunting knowledge of inscriptions in the library, the girl was still a little depressed.
After yawning lightly, she lowered her arms, patted her pink lips seductively with her slender white fingers, stood up and left the room, leaving this unintentional charming scene in the empty room.
"Annie, let's go--"
While Avis was testing his newly acquired prophecy magic, Fiona left Moonfall Castle for the first time in a long time and boarded the family's alchemical airship to the city of Karras.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
She was about to do something she had been planning for a long time.
………
Queen's Avenue in the central part of Karlas was built in 1622 of the Glorious Calendar, and now it has been nearly a thousand years old. During this long period of time, it and the buildings on both sides of it have undergone many expansions and are now the most prosperous commercial district in Karlas.
Exquisite brick and stone buildings lined the two sides of the avenue, and four-wheeled carriages drove slowly in the middle of the flat white stone road. Noisy crowds walked along the roadside separated by flower beds.
The alchemy shop 'Mystery', the weapon shop 'Dragon's Fang', the clothing shop 'Kletin Star'...
The top brands in all walks of life in the empire all have storefronts on this street.
Here, you can find top-quality mirage pearls from the Storm Ocean, inscribed chain mail from the craftsman city of Avidon, divine amulets from the City of Chant, and even top-quality black tea and elven artworks from another distant continent.
As long as you have enough gold coins, there is almost nothing you can't buy here.
"Annie, what do you think I should buy as a parting gift for my fourth brother?"
Fiona was wearing a light off-white dress and a wide-brimmed hat decorated with light blue ribbons. She walked briskly among the bustling crowd.
Although she was upset for half a month because Avis was telling stories in a discontinuous manner every day (? ? ).
But as the only brother in the family who is always with her, Fiona's relationship with Anvis is actually the closest among her brothers and sisters.
So, when the girl learned from her mother that her fourth brother was about to go to the Royal Capital Academy, she decided to prepare a parting gift for him.
"Master Anvis's gift should be chosen by you personally, young lady."
Looking at the girl's slender back, Anne, who was half a step behind her, spoke softly.
Compared with Avis's personal maid, the energetic Erica, she has a quieter personality and a very gentle temperament, giving people a feeling of a gentle older sister.
As a personal maid, she is also a fourth-level spellcaster specializing in natural magic. When Fiona occasionally goes out, she will follow her in the open.
