"No matter how many times I try, I can never get used to the feeling of wanting to crawl on my belly..."
Wen Shuiheyan rubbed his stomach and muttered with a somewhat ugly expression.
"If the body is transformed for too long, it can easily affect the recipient's mind, causing their behavior to become like the transformed species."
Li Mo explained to everyone the little knowledge he had gained from the magic book.
"I don't want to know this kind of trivia at all!"
Wen Shuiheyan shuddered and began to try hard to recall whether he had been affected by the experience of turning into a snake.
"Don't worry, your two changes were very short, so it won't have any impact."
Li Mo reassured him: "At most, I'll just occasionally crave frogs."
"That's already considered a pretty serious impact!"
Wen Shui and Yan Yan complained, looking at his sister: "Won't this bother Jia Shu?"
"It's fine. We just need to add frogs to the diet. Yoshiki needs to study this in detail when he gets home."
“You’re working in the wrong direction!”
Wen Shuiheyan became completely depressed.
Instead, Jiashu touched his head like an older sister, and comforted her brother softly to cheer him up.
"But then again, the problem was actually with the camera?"
The girl looked at the digital camera that was charging in the corner, a little surprised: "But my family has used this camera before, and this situation has never happened before?"
"That's because none of your family has magical powers, and you probably haven't used this camera much yourself, right?"
Li Mo asked.
"Well... after all, mobile phones are very convenient for taking photos nowadays."
Onmizu Yoshiki nodded.
"That's right. Although it's called a cursed camera, it's essentially just a magical item. It won't work without magic power. It's just like an ordinary digital camera. Its effects will only be triggered when you possess magic power."
"But when I took a picture of my brother's drooling sleeping face last night, he didn't suddenly turn into a girl, did he?"
The girl pretended not to hear her brother's scream, "You actually took that kind of photo?" and continued to ask Li Mo.
"That's because I intentionally increased the output of my magic power, speeding up the process of the curse taking effect."
After Li Mo finished explaining, he asked, "By the way, where did you get this camera?"
"It seems my dad found it in a secondhand store a few years ago. But he lost interest in it after playing with it for a while, and it's been in the storage room ever since. I just found it when I was tidying up the house a few days ago."
Onmizu Yoshiki explained.
"That's it..."
Li Mo nodded thoughtfully.
To be honest, he felt relieved when he heard the girl say this.
Before this, Li Mo actually always had a guess that "Could it be that all the abnormalities in this world are caused by me or the magic book I brought with me?"
Although Li Mo is not a saint, if this is true, then if a monster appears one day and kills thousands of people, no matter how big his heart is, he will feel some guilt.
At this time, Onmizu Yoshiki's words undoubtedly proved that this was not the case, because he and his magic book had only come to this world for more than half a year, while this cursed camera had existed for several years. In other words, even without his arrival, those weird and supernatural beings would gradually appear in this world.
Li Mo felt that after understanding this, he would be able to deal with those strange things more calmly in the future.
"What's wrong?"
Asamo Chihaya looked at Li Mo's changing expression and asked considerately.
"Nothing, just a slight change in my mood."
Li Mo shook his head: "Okay, everyone must be tired, so let's stop here for today. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it later... Well, Wenshui, if you have anything to say, you can say it now, okay?"
"Regarding the fact that I was deeply traumatized..."
Wen Shuiheyan asked dryly.
"I'm sorry, there's no hope. Goodbye."
Li Mo said expressionlessly.
"I haven't even finished yet!"
"After all, I'm not a part-time psychologist. If you really want some kind of comfort... Oh, how about this? Once the camera is charged, I'll turn you into a girl so you can legally enter the women's bathroom or something like that?"
Li Mo suggested.
"abnormal."
Gokou Ruri looked at Onumi Kazuhiko with cold eyes.
"This is not okay, as a human being."
Asagumo Chihaya said with a smile.
"Ahahaha, even I can't agree with that..."
Yuigahama Yui smiled with a much cooler smile.
"Even as an older brother, there are things you can and can't do."
Wen Shui Jiashu also said with a smile.
"It was clearly that guy's suggestion, why are you all targeting me?!"
Onmizu Kazuhiko protested.
"Of course, if I really wanted to do something like this, I could do it even without a camera, but I haven't done it yet. Doesn't that prove that my character is quite strong?"
Li Mo answered as if it was a matter of course.
"Although I do get to see girls' bodies sometimes."
Gokou Ruri said venomously with an expressionless face.
"Although it happened suddenly, taking a girl's first kiss by force is still a bit..."
Yuigahama Yui shyly played with her fingertips.
Everyone's eyes turned to Chihaya Asagumo in turn.
Li Mo felt a little relieved. Nothing too romantic happened between him and Chao Yun Chihaya.
Chihaya Asagumo blushed slightly, and she held her face in her hands shyly. "Although there was a little blood, Takuma-kun was quite a gentleman that night~"
"No, no, no, that's not the case at all, is it?"
Li Mo couldn't help but complain.
The scumbag-like looks from Gokou Ruri and Yuigahama Yui pierced his neck a little...
Wen Shui and Yan Yan were silent for a moment, then said to his sister: "Anyway, the culprit's camera is no longer in our hands, and Jiashu, you don't seem to have any magic power outages, otherwise why don't we come here?"
"But it's a fact that I have magic power. If one day my magic goes out of control and something irreparable happens, then Yoshiki will definitely regret his decision today."
The girl said seriously, "Besides, Yuigahama-senpai will protect me, right?"
"That's right, don't worry, Yoshiki!"
Yuigahama Yui patted her chest as if to take responsibility, then looked at Li Mo warily, with a righteous look on her face as if to say, "Come to me if you have any problems."
Li Mo gave her a look that said 'you wish' and studied the reward given to him by the system without paying attention to the people around him.
Chapter 99: The horror of the curse.
Sword in the Hat
[Mysterious Property: The Secret Keeper can draw a silver metal weapon from any hat. This weapon is essentially a magical artifact. The material strength, size, and appearance of the weapon are all related to the amount of magic consumed. It will naturally disappear after the magic supply is stopped. If it is drawn from the 'Sorting Hat', it is considered to be of the same rank as the 'Sword of Gryffindor'.]
【Secret Keeper Takuma Asakura】
【Note: 'Shouldn't it be The Sword in the Stone?'
——By King Arthur】
【Note 2: 'Shouldn't it be the sister who got stabbed?'
——By My King’s Power Ah Ah Ah】
[Note 3: 'Slytherin's locket, Hufflepuff's cup, and Ravenclaw's diadem are all Horcruxes. By analogy, the remaining Horcruxes must be...'
——By the ignorant melon-eating wizard]
Amid the puzzled gazes of the others, Li Mo walked to the shelf, took the Sorting Hat off, and then reached directly into the hat.
Sorting Hat: "Ah~"
Li Mo: "..."
He was silent.
M1917 American-made Smith & Wesson.
Then he pulled a revolver from his hat.
"Is this some kind of magic show?"
Wen Shui and Yan complained.
"No, the usual magic trick is to pull a dove out of a hat, right?"
Onmizu Yoshiki questioned.
Li Mo ignored the complaints of the Wenshui brothers and sisters and checked the pistol. He found that the cylinder was cast together with the gun body and there was no way to turn it. This thing was just a toy with the appearance of a pistol.
It seems that the so-called magical creation of the Sword in the Hat should be based on the same principle as the injection molding process of plastic products. They are all molded in one piece and cannot restore overly complex structures.
This made Li Mo very disappointed - his dream of pulling out a Gundam from his hat when he had enough magic power was shattered.
He shook his hand, and the completely useless revolver in his hand disappeared like a puff of smoke.
Then Li Mo reached into his hat and took out a model of Typhon, the Star of Disaster, and put it on the shelf together with the Sorting Hat, and then he ignored it.
It's not a meaningless waste of magic power. Li Mo is just testing the magic power consumption of generating the sword in the hat and the magic power required to maintain the existence of his creation in this way.
Currently, the magic power required to generate the sword in the hat is about one unit, and to maintain its existence, when the individual is only the size of an ordinary Figma, the consumption is almost negligible.
After all, among the four witches present, the magic power Li Moguang gained through wireless charging was much higher than the magic power he consumed...
"But then again, even though it's a cursed camera, it doesn't really feel like a curse at all."
Yuigahama Yui curiously poked the pink digital camera that was still charging. "Even if it was photographed, wouldn't it be possible to change back just by taking another photo? If it's a curse, shouldn't it be worse?"
Li Mo, who had no intention of continuing to test the performance of the sword in the hat, responded: "That's because there's something wrong with the camera."
"Can there be defective cursed items?"
"Isn't it normal that the more sophisticated something is, the more likely it is to go wrong?"
Li Mo said disapprovingly.
"Indeed, the devices used to save the world in movies are the kind that can't function if one screw is missing."
Yuigahama Yui nodded, but Li Mo always felt that her example was a little strange.
"On the other hand, if it's an evil robot or mecha, even if it's beaten to pieces or only has half of it left, it can often still function normally and fight the protagonists until the last moment."
Chihaya Asagumo also joined the discussion.
"After seeing this happen so many times, I always feel that the things on the bad guys' side are of better quality."
Yuigahama Yui agreed repeatedly.
"That's just for show,"
Wu Geng Liuli is awake in the world: "People who seek a sense of reality in fictional stories must have a problem with their brains."
"No, no, no, it's definitely not your turn to say this, Liulili, right?"
Yuigahama Yui, who was most impressed by the girl's usual middle school look, couldn't help but complain.
"So what exactly is the problem with this camera?"
Yoshiki Onmizu calmly brought the topic back on track.
