Chapter 133
"Lord Lansemello...teacher?"
In the end, it was Ieiri Shoko, who had enrolled early, who spoke first and broke the depressing atmosphere.
"I remember that Velvet gave you all a unified assignment, right?" Lansermello closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes turned blue again. "Since Gojo-kun easily destroyed the clues, let's use unconventional means to deal with it. By the way, I will tell Velvet that the topic of your thesis has become this cursed spirit case."
"It's a collective paper writing model for the research group, not one for each person." Lansemello stared at the traces left by Cang in front of him and sighed faintly, "Fortunately, I didn't really bring you to the scene, otherwise, not only would it cause such a big commotion without letting the 'account' go, but it would also be a problem of Chaldea violating the constraints."
"Huh?"
As Lansemelo finished his words, the scene before everyone's eyes turned into pink and white petals that dispersed, revealing their original appearance - this was the forest belonging to the Tokyo Metropolitan Jutsu High School that the high school had specifically introduced as the place where the team competition would be held if the sister school exchange meeting was held in Tokyo.
Because of the aftermath of the storm and the confrontation with the mock chalk city, several trees near them were toppled and broken.
"But if we didn't go to the scene in the first place..." Xia Yujie looked at the scene in front of him and fell into deep thought, "Then why does this cursed spirit exist?"
"Although I have commissioned Mr. Merlin to arrange the illusion, this cursed spirit is indeed the anchor of the illusion." Lansermero glanced at the broken tree, and pulled out a huge magic wand from the air. "It can be considered that the others caught it on their way out to play."
"After all, the clone's strength is indeed the highest level two."
"But in this case, it will be very troublesome to find the real body..." Ieiri Naoko frowned subconsciously and began to think about Gojo Satoru's previous actions. "No, if Gojo hadn't taken action, we could indeed follow the clone to find the real body - but isn't this the normal teaching process?"
"No, Lord Lansemello said that the scene we saw before was an illusion..." Xia Yujie, who didn't know what the six eyes were, subconsciously began to prove that Gojo Satoru was not messing around on purpose, "Could it be that Satoru discovered that the scene here was an illusion and did this?"
"Even if he is worshipped as the 'Son of God', he is not a true god." Lansermello sighed, waved his wand, and restored the toppled trees to their original state. "Although the six eyes are rated as rainbow-level here, they are not the kind of eyes that can directly see through illusions."
"By the way, it's best not to delve into the question of the true nature of the cursed spirit, Ieiri. This is the best warning I can give you."
"Then, this is the official departure."
On the other side, the high school is in the teaching building of Chaldea.
"You run really fast." Roman poured a cup of flower and fruit tea to the rainbow-haired, white-robed man sitting on the windowsill, and looked helplessly in the same direction. "Do you think Gojo Satoru will find you, Merlin?"
"I'm still very confident in this regard, Romani." Merlin took the flower and fruit tea from Roman with a smile, then turned his head to look out the window. "After all, as little Alice said, Gojo Satoru was only regarded as the 'Son of God' because of the existence of the Six Eyes."
Gojo Satoru does not have the blood of a god, which means he has no divinity - the best he can achieve is to the level of Solomon.
And Solomon himself had never seen through Merlin's illusions directly...
Of course, how much of this was due to the fact that Merlin, as the youngest member of the same generation in the clairvoyant chat room "Avalon", was given Solomon's leniency in allowing children to be brought along... no one knows.
Even without mentioning the fact that Solomon had never seen through Merlin's magic, the changes in the times and development of human society alone were enough to determine that Gojo Satoru would not be able to catch up with the heights that the Heroic Spirits living in the past could reach during their lifetime - but as the data they collected said, there was no doubt that Gojo Satoru would become the "strongest" in this world and this era.
And in several experiments in Chaldea, it was proved that if it was not a high-level god, then only gods with illusion-related powers could see through Merlin's illusion at a glance - at most, a group of Merlins in parallel worlds.
"Gojo Satoru will always be just a human, not a true god." Merlin held the teacup in his hand and jumped into Roman's office from the window sill as lightly as if he had accompanied Chaldea to the present Fourth Beast. "He may judge that the situation on the scene is wrong based on the information collected by the six eyes, but he will never be able to tell at a glance that he is in an illusion."
"After all, in order to reduce the possibility of exposure, I covered the entire high school and the sparsely populated areas nearby with illusions."
This time, Lancer Mello took Gojo Goga, Yujie, and Ieiri Naoko to the rooftop of a building.
"Where is...?"
"Ah, it's not that important." Lancer Mello's eyes passed over Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru, and finally landed on the questioner, Ieiri Shoko. "It's just that in my life, no one has ever thought that I do things too roundabout. Besides, since there are students who want to see it, of course I have to satisfy their wishes."
"The only problem is to inform the sorcerer who is handling the suspected curse cases in Tokyo that all the curses have been resolved."
The secret of the Lancermello family seal is a large-scale ritual magic related to "copying" - but when the seal was transferred to the last heir, a change occurred, and the "copying" that would take months or even years to complete in the outside world became a magic that only works on the heir himself.
Unlike other magicians' magic marks that only ensure that the magician will not die, Lancermello's mark will start to operate after a mutation occurs, using the original body as a template for "copying" and completing the missing parts, unless the Chaldea control room was directly blown to ashes like the two explosions.
An additional impact was that the magic seals that could not be copied were also copied to Lancermello - all the family's origin seals could be found on Lancermello's body. However, the Sealing Designation Bureau had proved something that made all magicians ignore it and forget the existence of this anomaly.
The Sealing Designation Bureau has proven that even with the Clock Tower's mature peeling technology, these copied seals will completely wither the moment they are separated from Lancermello's body - and Lancermello's body will soon replicate an identical seal again to fill the gap.
However, just like the reason why the magic seal mutated, the origin and properties of Lancermello remained unknown.
It was not until in the British Newsbelt that Morgan gave his Holy Sword Primordial "Soul" to Lancer Mello, who had lost his body in the explosion of the Chaldea Control Room and lost his Holy Sword Primordial "Soul" again in the Atlantic Newsbelt, leaving only his spirit. The origin and properties of Lancer Mello, who had reconstructed his body, were finally confirmed by instruments.
Of course, this does not confirm whether Lancermello's original origin and attributes were like this, but at least after that - Lancermello's origin was "Earth", and its attributes were also manifested as "Earth" under the influence of its origin.
And now, "Earth" corresponds exactly to the corner that Lansermero represents in the framework of rebuilding the world.
"Well... although the work of a sorcerer seems to be only treating the symptoms and not the root cause, in this world, treating the root cause is many times more troublesome than treating the symptoms." Lansemello casually projected a tuning fork and struck it on the wand, then quickly threw away the tuning fork and held the wand horizontally in front of him, "'Heaven' and 'Earth' are mutually resonant existences."
The two magic seals on Lancermello's forehead and right calf, belonging to different magician families, emitted a blue light filled with magical power. At the same time, the world turned upside down in front of the eyes of Kagome Ken, Gojo Satoru, and Ieiri Shoko. The astronomical magic circle that should have lit up in the sky was outlining corresponding golden lines on the ground above their heads.
"Meteor showers are not only invisible to ordinary people, but also allow the high school to lock onto the target immediately." Lansermello raised his wand, but chose not to look down at his feet. "However, with the prelude of the magic of the Astronomical University, the foundation I need has been built."
Chaldea's magicians tend to be more like sorcerers than normal magicians, not to mention that Lord Marisbili Animusphia of the Department of Astronomy is a person who pursues practicality more. Ritsuka Fujimaru is not the only one in Chaldea who has learned the baptismal chant from Shiro Amakusa and Kirei Kotomine, which can play a special role in certain situations.
At least as far as Lansemelo himself knew, everyone in Chaldea learned everything they could, and no one chose not to learn because of religious beliefs - as for what adaptations everyone made that were more suitable for them, that was another matter.
At least Lancermello had combined the magic he had already mastered with the standard version to create a lot of combined magic—including an amplified version that was very suitable for dealing with the current situation.
Lancermello closed his eyes, stretched his hand forward, and began to sing—
"I kill, I give life. What I wound, I heal. What cannot be crossed is my palm. What cannot be escaped is my gaze.
To destroy it.
I call back the disabled and the old. Trust me, learn from me, and obey me.
I wish you a rest and comfort.
Don't forget to sing, don't forget to pray, don't forget me. With my lightness, I will free you from the heaviness of all things.
Take off the cover.
Where there is forgiveness, there is revenge; where there is trust, there is betrayal; where there is hope, there is despair; where there is light, there is darkness; where there is birth, there is death.
Rest is what I bring. Burn your sins, carve your mark. Eternal life is given by death.
Please forgive me here and accept my oath.
Warm white light descended from the sky, brushing away the negative emotions in the crowd, dissolving the remnants of cursed energy and curses that had not yet formed into cursed spirits, and even destroying cursed spirits hiding in the shadows and deep underground - within the range that Gojo Satoru could confirm with his own eyes, the aura of the curse was completely eliminated by the warm white sunlight.
"Baptismal singing of the 'Kyrie eleison'."
