Soman Shuchiin, starting from Fulilian to become a magician

"Magic is the power of imagination. You never know what kind of magic your opponent possesses. Trusting appearances too much can cost you your life, Aura."

Watching Ye Shanming's back disappear in the kitchen, Aura fell into deep thought. It seemed that what this human said did make some sense, and he didn't seem so annoying anymore.

It was not until a burnt smell rushed into her nose that she woke up from her thoughts and began to hurriedly clean up the burnt ingredients.

No, this guy is really annoying.

Chapter 21 It seems like the child was raised in the wrong way.

The birds in the mountains and forests were startled and scattered. Aura used flying magic to float in the air, with a smug smile on his face, looking directly at the figure flying towards him. Suddenly, several air vacuums appeared in the air, and several blood flowers suddenly splattered on the figure.

"Ahahaha, bastard, how does it feel to be attacked by my own improved cutting magic?"

Seeing that Ye Shanming was injured, Aura laughed happily. Ye Shanming said nothing and continued to fly towards Aura. The latter immediately distanced herself from him. She knew that this bastard was not only a powerful magician, but also a top fighter. If he got close to her, she would be defeated.

Aura tried her best to increase the distance between the two of them, and at the same time cast a magic spell to stir up a strong wind. In the fierce wind, she could barely maintain her body shape, but Ye Shanming, who had not yet fully understood the demon flying magic, just applied it roughly and found it difficult to control his body shape in the strong wind, and was forced to land on the ground.

Having gained the advantage in the air, Aula immediately changed the technique. A gorgeous magic circle circulated, and powerful magic fluctuations came from it. Dense arrows of light shot down at Ye Shanming like stars.

The light of judgment!

Ye Shanming said nothing as he held up a defensive magic in front of him. The light arrows hit the defensive magic and dissipated silently, but the subsequent light arrows, under the control of Aula, hit the same position accurately one after another. The defensive magic shattered and smoke and dust covered his figure.

The strong wind blew away the smoke and dust. Ye Shanming's clothes were torn and his body was covered with countless wounds. He looked miserable and it seemed that he was doomed to fail.

Aura did not relax his vigilance. He pointed his right hand forward, and a halo formed by magic bound Ye Shanming tightly in place. Then he landed happily, his pride beyond words.

"Hahaha, after twenty years of training, you finally lost to me, you bastard."

Aura, who has grown into the size of a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, stood in front of Ye Shanming, sitting directly on Ye Shanming's belly with an arrogant smile on her face.

"What should I do with you next?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a sense of disharmony. The next moment, the whole world shattered like glass. The person bound by the binding magic turned into herself, and Ye Shanming's hateful face appeared in her sight.

"How despicable! You actually used mind control magic. Are you finally not going to hide your despicable desires for me?"

"By the way, is your personality getting weirder?"

Ye Shanming poked her cheek helplessly, then pulled his finger back, leaving her teeth empty.

"You're just a little brat. What could you possibly desire from me? I've raised you for over thirty years, and you won't even call me Godfather."

"Haha, do you mean by raising me that I have to clean the room, cook, and do the laundry?"

Aura's disdain was evident in her words. Ye Shanming loosened his restraints on her and pressed his right hand tightly on her head before she poked his stomach with the big horns on her head.

"Okay, that's all for today's practical class."

Feeling somewhat guilty, Ye Shanming quickly ended the topic and turned to another matter:

"Go pack up later, we should leave here."

"You're willing to leave? I thought you were going to die here."

As he spoke, Aura suddenly thought of something and looked at him suspiciously, which made Ye Shanming look puzzled.

"Come to think of it, you don't seem to have aged much in the past thirty years. Are you human?"

"Hmm? Didn't I tell you? I'm an immortal. You might not even live as long as me."

"I never said that, you bastard!"

The unspeakable plan in her heart was shattered, and Aula angrily kicked his calf, ignored him, and went back to pack her clothes with a heart full of anger.

During these thirty years, Ye Shanming lived a very fulfilling life. With Aura taking care of the chores in life, his daily life was spent analyzing magic and improving existing magic. However, the results also satisfied him.

He finally succeeded in cracking the space transfer magic of Afterimage Zat. Although he was not a demon and could not reach the same level as Afterimage Zat, he could still create a small space for storage based on it.

The basic principles of the Miracle Graosam's Paradise Extradition Magic were finally analyzed, and the mind control magic was improved based on it, which can immerse people in a false illusion.

However, the analysis of the demon flying magic is not satisfactory. It can only be simply and crudely forced to apply the spell. Although it is sufficient for use in actual combat, it is easily affected by external forces.

Any one of the above researches alone would be enough for human magicians to study for a hundred years. Yet, Ye Shanming was able to complete it in just thirty years. This was not only because of his solid foundation in magic, but also mainly because of his enhanced thinking and comprehension abilities.

Aura didn't take too many things with him. He just put some notes and magic books given to him by Ye Shanming into the storage magic he developed, and then walked out.

"Let's go, this time we're heading north, there's a place I need to go."

Aura took a last look at the place where he had lived for thirty years, and consciously took Ye Shanming's hand and left with him.

As Aura grew up, the two looked more like a pair of siblings. At Ye Shanming's strong request, Aura reluctantly put on a hood to hide her demonic features.

Compared with thirty years ago, the situation in the Central Continent has become more stable. The Central Kingdom has ruled most of the Central Continent, and only a few small kingdoms still exist in the area bordering the northern plateau.

Therefore, compared to the past, the number of adventurers has increased. When passing by the village, the sad expressions on the villagers' faces have disappeared, which makes Ye Shanming feel a little emotional. This kind of overall situation of the times that is enough to affect the life of an ordinary person is just a brief moment in front of the immortal species.

"Hey, what's going on with this barrier? It has such a terrifying protective ability."

Standing in front of Fort Val, Aura, who was naturally very sensitive to magic, stopped and looked at the barrier covering the entire fort with a look of panic on her face:

"I'm afraid only the Demon King who has reigned over the Demon Race for hundreds of years can break this barrier."

The magician who was preparing to enter the city heard her words and showed a proud expression on his face. He explained to her in a somewhat boastful tone:

"That's hard to say. This is a barrier set up by the legendary founder of magic, Lord Volame. So far, I haven't heard of any demon breaking it."

"It is precisely because of these barriers that the Northern Empire can firmly defend the demons at the northern border."

After hearing the explanation from the passerby, Aura rolled his eyes and nudged Ye Shanming's stomach with his elbow maliciously, starting to stir up trouble:

"Asshole, who's stronger, you or that Volame?"

Ye Shanming glanced at her, slapped her little head, took her away from the team entering the city, and walked to the side.

"When Volame was alive, he was stronger than me."

Hearing Ye Shanming's flat answer, Aura pursed his lips, understood the hidden meaning of Ye Shanming's words, resisted the urge to speak, and followed him silently.

Chapter 22: Human War.

"I had forgotten that Volame had set up barriers at various key fortresses, preventing the demons from entering. I can only guide you around these places. What a hassle."

Ye Shanming took Aula on a trek through the mountains and forests, his words full of disgust for her.

"I didn't ask you to take me with you."

Aura was stubborn and refused to give in to Ye Shanming: "If you find it troublesome, you can just use flying magic to fly over there. Why do you have to go into the city?"

Ye Shanming glanced at her, his eyes filled with even more disdain: "Flying magic consumes a lot of magic power. I can handle it, but do you have enough magic power?"

"You've only lived a few years longer than me, and have accumulated a bit more magic power. Once I live for a few hundred years, I'll definitely have more magic power than you!"

Ye Shanming's words hit her sore spot, and she was indignant. If she had not misjudged the difference in magic power between Ye Shanming and her, she would not have used the obedience magic and suffered backlash, ending up in her current situation.

The two of them bickered as they headed north. Since Fort Val was connected to the Liker Canyon, they had no choice but to make a big detour, spending most of their time traveling in the wild, with Aura responsible for their daily food.

In Ye Shanming's own words, it was okay when he was alone before, but now that he has someone to order him around, he must take it easy.

Along the way, the two of them only stayed in villages. Most large fortresses had protective barriers set up by Volame, and Aura was completely unable to enter. Walking along the avenue, Ye Shanming returned to a place he was very familiar with - the Rant area.

"Legend has it that five hundred years ago, a brave warrior appeared in the Lant region. Wielding a longsword, he journeyed south to help others. When he arrived at the southern fortress of Val, he heard about the dragon plague in the Likel Canyon. Upon hearing the news, the warrior single-handedly defeated the long-wreaking Red Mirror Dragon..."

In a village, Ye Shanming was replenishing supplies in the grocery store. Aura, wearing a hood, sat at the entrance of the village, resting his head on his hands, listening to the bard's story with great interest.

Ye Shanming walked out of the store and said to her who was already listening intently: "Let's go, Aura."

"Let me listen a little longer."

When Aula heard the critical moment, he responded unwillingly.

Ye Shanming forcibly took her hand and dragged her away. After walking a distance, he saw that she was throwing a tantrum and felt helpless.

"How come you, a demon, are so fascinated by human stories?"

"Is there any demon like me who has lived for decades without killing a single human?!"

Aura replied angrily, and walked forward with her head down. The two of them had lived together for so long, and although they often quarreled, Ye Shanming really regarded her as his own family. Seeing her obviously angry look, he couldn't help but touch her head and comfort her:

"I know this story too. Let me tell you."

Aura's face was full of doubt. Seeing Ye Shanming's character of staying in his place for decades without moving, she didn't believe his words at all. She spoke tentatively:

"Then tell me how the warriors in the story defeated the Red Mirror Dragon."

"I just kicked it out of the sky, used mass magic to break through its magic resistance, blocked its movement, and killed it with one sword. It was very simple."

Ye Shanming recalled it briefly and said lightly. Aura looked at him strangely:

"Why is your version different from what the bard said?"

"Maybe it's a literary creation. It's just a red mirror dragon. Do you think it would be difficult for me to deal with it?"

Aura nodded in agreement, then suddenly realized: "You are the protagonist of this story?"

Ye Shanming nodded: "Although there are many fabricated parts, it should be the time when I was traveling alone."

"Tsk."

Aura clicked his tongue in disgust and suddenly lost interest in the story.

He was even the protagonist of a story from hundreds of years ago. How long did this guy live?

After leaving the Lant area, the two continued to head north. Although this place was nominally the territory of the Central Kingdom, the offensive of the northern demons had slowed down in recent years, and the pressure on the Northern Empire had decreased. They began to launch wars against other human kingdoms, determined to restore the glory of the unified empire.

Therefore, this area became a de facto buffer zone between the Northern Empire and the Central Kingdom.

Standing on the top of the mountain, the two men looked at the bloody battlefield below. The unified kingdom had been divided for a hundred years. The people who were once the same country were now slaughtering each other under the instigation of their respective kingdoms.

Magic was flying across the battlefield, warriors were charging, blood and flesh were flying everywhere, people were dying every second, blood dyed the earth red, even from such a distance, the pungent smell of blood still drifted into their noses on the wind.

It was the first time for Aura to see so many humans die. The nature of the demons made her a little excited, but after so many years of education from Ye Shanming, she suppressed her inner impulse and looked at the boy standing beside her:

"Are we just going to wait them out?"

"There's no other way. We can't take another detour. The cold front from the north is approaching. We must quickly enter the northern plateau."

Although the two had tried to stay as far away as possible, some magicians still discovered the two people standing on the top of the mountain. They were completely bloodthirsty and treated anyone who was not on their side as an enemy.

Facing several magic spells coming towards him, Ye Shanming did not make any move. He just held up the defensive magic. The magic exploded on the shield, as brilliant as fireworks.

Although these magicians were already good enough, they were unable to break the seemingly thin defensive magic.

The battlefield below also changed at this time. It seemed that because the casualties of the vanguard were too heavy, both sides pushed up cannon fodder troops to replace the vanguard troops and let them rest.

A huge crowd of people were pushed onto the battlefield. Their thin linen clothes barely covered their bodies. Their eyes were lifeless and their thin bodies made it difficult for them to even hold their swords. Among this group of cannon fodder, which numbered a thousand people, the oldest was no more than fourteen years old, and the youngest was not even as tall as Aula.

"Trouble, I didn't want to get involved in the first place, but have you reached this point?"

Ye Shanming sighed lightly. If some things that touch the bottom line have not been encountered, they can be treated as if they do not exist, but if they are right in front of you, it is a different matter.

Another round of fireworks exploded in the sky, and the seemingly indestructible defensive magic disappeared. The next moment, an indifferent voice rang out:

"Disarm!"

The sound of weapons falling to the ground could be heard throughout the battlefield. The battle-hardened warriors were surprised to find that their bodies were completely out of control and they threw all the weapons in their hands to the ground, even the magicians' staffs were no exception.

"It's mind control magic!"

Some magicians with particularly quick reactions strengthened their mental defenses while quickly attacking Ye Shanming. Aura stood in front of him, holding up defensive magic to block all the hasty magical attacks.

"Your Majesty!"

As one of the ways of communication, words themselves have a certain effect of amplifying magic, but Ye Shanming thinks it is inconvenient, and the power is usually enough, so he basically does not use words to cooperate.

It was just that at this moment, in order to maximize the range and power of the mind control magic, he rarely used this technique.

Chapter 23: It’s broken, and I’ve become the director of a nursery.

The battlefield was filled with people kneeling down. Both warriors and magicians struggled hard, trying to break free from the influence of the mind control magic.

However, Ye Shanming's mental control magic was based on Graosam's paradise extradition magic, and was amplified by words, so it could not be removed in a short time.

In order to maximize the power of magic, human magicians will basically choose to use staffs to cooperate, but this also reveals the biggest disadvantage. Having lost their staffs, they can't even cast a single spell and can only watch the initiator of this super-large magic walk into the battlefield.

Ye Shanming jumped down from the top of the mountain with Aula, landed lightly on the ground, and walked towards the center of the battlefield step by step. The sound of his light footsteps was no less than thunder in the ears of these people.

If Ye Shanming did not have the demon clan's iconic horns on his head, they would have suspected that the Demon King himself had come here.

The only ones in the field who were not under Ye Shanming's mental control magic were the thousand scouts. They looked at Ye Shanming with lifeless eyes, at a loss, not knowing what was waiting for them.

"Those who have killed others should step out."
