Lucille took the lead and faced Rachel head-on...
Various variations of witchcraft and alchemy appeared one after another in the hands of the two, but everyone could see that they were showing mercy to each other.
"Brother Rorschach is dead. Why don't you understand, Sister Rachel? He can't come back to life. Wake up!" Lucille threw a spell that hit the golem. At the same time, the magic rebounded from the golem and threw the attack back again.
【Deviation~】
Lucille waved her hand to dissolve her own attack and began to chant another magic.
Alchemists are the profession that understands physical changes best. All magic that can cause external damage is useless in front of them. They will dissolve or move matter to other places by changing its nature. If you want to fight against high-level alchemists, you can only use magic such as curses and mysticism.
Although she didn't want to admit it, Lucille had been studying this kind of spell many years ago... It was only because her mentor had said that one day she would meet an alchemist, and if she didn't learn magic to restrain them, she might not be able to win.
At that time, I thought it was a joke. After all, my elder sister later became one of the best alchemists in the world.
But the result that I thought was the most impossible became a reality...
"Sister Rachel!"
Before the magic in his hand was finished, Rachel on the opposite side rushed over first. The wrist guard in her hand turned into a rapier, and the sword turned into a thread when it was swung, and the thread finally turned into a needle.
The damage is almost reduced to the minimum, but the range of acupuncture is also the largest.
"I have my own persistence, sister. If I give up something that is right in front of me, then all my efforts over the years will be in vain!"
Densely packed iron and steel needles flew towards Lucille, and there was no way to dodge, or rather, there was no way to dodge at all. They pierced from the air to the ground with almost no visual angle... Lucille had no time to block, and her entire body was hit.
"ah!"
Um?
Rachel, who had attacked, didn't expect that the opponent would actually be hit. She and Lucille had fought each other many times in the past, and she knew all of Lucille's abilities. These should be within her ability to resolve.
However, just when he was confused, he realized that the figure of Lucille in front of him was just an illusion, and the real her suddenly appeared behind him...
"Sister Rachel, I don't want to fight with you, please leave." The blade was against Rachel's lower back, and he did not forget to shout to Sean who was fighting with four golems on the other side.
"Sean...get away from the golem and come here quickly. As long as we catch the operator, those puppets will not move."
It’s so simple to say, if you have the ability, just do it yourself.
As Sean fought with these puppet golems, he gradually discovered that these golems were becoming more and more like conscious people. They could quickly capture any of his movements and consciously think about the reactions to his movements. Sometimes they would suddenly attack without any reason, almost forcing Sean into a desperate situation.
It was an attack that a normal person couldn't avoid at all. If it weren't for the use of the abilities from the other dimension, he would have been stabbed to death dozens of times!
With his left hand, he was hesitating whether to use the [Fireworks of Cthugha], but Sean was worried that if he used it again, he would lose control and burn down half of the capital. The lesson from the last time was still vivid in his mind... Sean didn't want the involvement of the power of the ancient gods to interfere with the course of history again.
Just like what my mother said back then: The more you use this power, the more you will be trapped in it.
"Come here, Sean," Lucille called again.
Sean directly used his ability to escape and combined it with his body to re-enter the space of the other dimension...
Time slowed down, and the movements of several puppets raising their weapons seemed to be frozen in mid-air. As long as he didn't attack them, they would not appear. With the help of this time, Sean could easily walk to a position outside the battle.
In the black and white picture, the metal shell of the puppet cannot be seen. What appears in front of the eyes are four black shadows with human shapes. Their eyes can be seen, and it seems that they are moving!
How could it be possible...
This is a plane under the ability of [Time Ruler].
When time and space overlap, it is impossible for a creature to exist in two planes with different time flow rates unless it possesses the same abilities.
Sean ran to Lucille without thinking...
The body returns to reality again.
The reactions of both men were startled. The person who had just been fighting in the distance was able to appear in front of them in an instant, as if it were some kind of teleportation magic. However, Lucille didn't have time to care about these small details at the moment. She slightly increased the force of the weapon in her hand.
"Sister Rachel, you should know that I know your abilities best. Even you can't arm yourself quickly at such a close distance. How about... just leave? Similarly, we won't pursue what happened today, but we won't give you the legendary manuscript." Lucille said.
The four puppets in the distance turned around and stopped moving at the same time when they saw their 'master' being held hostage. This made Sean feel even more strange. Could these puppets really have consciousness?
"Hmph, even if I leave it to you, you wouldn't know how to use it... You're just wasting it. I'm the only one in the world who knows what the things written on it mean. You got it because you want to uncover its secrets, right? Why don't you share it with me? Half for you, half for me. That makes perfect sense."
Rachel's attitude changed. She wanted to ask for something just now, but now she wants to trade.
Lucille didn't say anything, just glanced at Sean, because from the beginning to the end it was Sean who was unwilling to hand it over to the other party, and she had no idea what was recorded in this manuscript.
"You should understand what you are doing. The door of truth cannot be opened, and there will not be what you want inside." Sean said.
I have seen the door of truth myself.
Even now I still can't understand what's inside...
Void, invisible?
It seemed as if there was nothing. Knowledge did exist, but it was the truth that Yog-Sothoth forced upon him at that time. Ordinary people might go crazy if they looked directly at the true face of the unspeakable one, and if they couldn't close the door to truth, no one knew what would happen.
"What do you know! You are just listening to the ignorant opinions of your arrogant mother. The Door of Truth is the essence of this world, the passage to the magnificent truth... As long as it can be opened, I can crack the code of life, and then the people you are waiting for can come back." Rachel roared almost crazily, the expression on her face changed from calm to furious, and finally to distorted.
"Don't you want to, little sister? What have you been chasing after all these years...isn't it just your mentor's footsteps? Don't you want to see him again and listen to his teachings?"
I could sense a state of [Hesitation!] appearing above Lucille's head.
Perhaps Rachel also noticed this, she continued...
