Chapter 346 The Use of Handkerchiefs
They were instantly back at the Elf Inn, where the three adorable knights, having used a return spell, lay down on the sofa.
"Magic undo, patching up, restoring."
Under the glow of healing magic, the group slowly awoke, and the elves of the inn handed them potions that they had prepared beforehand.
Returning to the Moe Academy with the ultimate Sorey Holy Sword, Principal Ous and Director Pa were there, as was Teacher Qian Jin.
He seemed to have thought of something, and after saying "okay" several times, he left. Miya Xing pursed his lips, and Kenny the Cat followed behind him and Eric, avoiding eye contact with Osgeda.
After hearing their account, Pascal landed thoughtfully. He and Osgeda exchanged a glance and confirmed their guess: "You must have encountered the Soul Summoning Demon King."
Ukunana recalled the man's performance and nodded: "Indeed, he was by the side of the Dark Emperor, and his strength was not low. His magic had the effect of reading minds, which is consistent with the image of the legendary Soul Summoning Demon King."
During the period when the Dark Clan occupied the Moe Academy, the Soul Summoning Demon King appeared quite frequently in Elder Fest's research materials, so everyone should know a little about him.
“The most difficult thing to deal with is the mind-reading ability in his magic,” Eric added. “Although it is a bit troublesome, it is not difficult to deal with as long as he does not read your thoughts.”
And they happened to know someone who might be able to deal with the Soul Summoner's magical abilities.
After learning their purpose, the gloomy duchess demonstrated the Reincarnation Withering Burial Heart Technique to them.
Without even needing detailed analysis, they already knew that this magic was not something they could learn.
"You've known the Soul Summoning Demon King for a long time, surely you know his weaknesses?"
Just like Pa's best at using provocation.
The gloomy duchess is most susceptible to being provoked.
"Hey! I'm not familiar with Soul Recaller, how would I know what his weakness is? We've never even met!"
If the reverse psychology tactic doesn't work, then it can only mean that you genuinely don't know.
"Never seen it before? So your spirit stone forms can't be like energy, dispersing and then reassembling back to their original state?"
“Of course,” the gloomy duchess said, no longer wanting to be too close to Ulala, “not all spirit stone forms are as beautiful and captivating as I am…”
“Alright, alright,” Pa slid down and interrupted her, “Just tell me there’s no other way.”
The gloomy duchess leaned back in her chair, her posture suggesting she was the true mistress of the Moe Academy: "No."
"If you don't know, just say you don't know. It hasn't happened yet."
After leaving the underground sewers, Pa slid down and gestured dismissively toward the entrance.
"It's alright, I can distract the Soul Summoning Demon King."
Genny immediately chimed in, "I'll go with you!"
“No, that won’t do,” Miya Xing refused. “I can manage on my own.”
“Don’t worry,” Opa comforted Kenny, “Miya Star is most familiar with mind-reading magic, and we’re just causing him trouble.”
Especially Genny's thoughts, they are indeed too easy to understand.
“Don’t touch me.” Genny avoided his movements. “Traitor, none of you are speaking up for me.”
“Oh~ traitor~,” Ukunana deliberately looked towards an empty spot, “I wonder who acted alone without telling everyone.”
“Yes,” Ulala echoed, “I wonder who thinks that none of us care about our friends’ lives except for him.”
“Hey, I didn’t,” Genny said, snuggling up to Ulala with a wronged expression. Just like he had dodged Opa, Ulala had dodged him, with Little Fluttershy getting in between. “I was just thinking that I should be punished.”
Eric just laughed from the side. When Ukunana glared at him, he quickly replied "yes" twice, and then got glared at by Ginny.
Feeling guilty, Miya Xing remained silent.
The only teacher, Pa, slipped and fell to the ground, looking quite emotional.
"Oh dear, to see you all so complete..." No, that's bad luck. "So united and harmonious..." No, that's inappropriate.
"It's so nice to stand here like this."
He twirled the pointer, as if witnessing a glorious history unfold before his eyes: "Now we have the ultimate Sorey Holy Sword, and the Limitless Energy Potion is ready. Victory is within our grasp!"
Oh dear, the Cute Knights who completely purified the dark forces were his students, and Nyarlathotep, the first and last to survive in history, was also his student.
In his mind, he gradually imagined walking down the streets of Quark Planet, being recognized and surrounded by cheering people.
“Director Pa,” Eric carefully interrupted him, “you know, um… that completely purifying the dark forces and utilizing the ultimate Sorey Holy Sword requires a huge amount of resources, right?”
“It’s obvious,” Pa slid to the ground, brandishing his pointer and frowning. “Isn’t there the Limitless Energy Potion?”
Eric looked at Ukunana for help, and she replied, "There is indeed a potion of limitless energy, but the amount of energy required to completely refine dark abilities is far beyond our imagination."
"In other words, at that time our chariot would be in a state of being rapidly depleted and rapidly replenished by the Limitless Energy Potion." After Ou Pa finished speaking, he took out a handkerchief and handed it to the still bewildered Pa, which then fell to the ground.
Pa slipped and landed, still not understanding.
Yes, consumption and replenishment—isn't that how you make Limitless Energy Potions?
“Director Pa,” Miya Xing stopped him from stuffing the handkerchief into his pocket, “the Scroll is the core of the Quark people’s energy, the source of life and magic.”
It is not a pool, and it cannot withstand the repeated cycles of emptying and filling.
Just as even the strongest person cannot withstand losing a lot of blood while simultaneously receiving a large amount of blood.
They already knew this conclusion when Teacher Qian Jin told them that using the Ultimate Sorey Holy Sword to power the Ultimate Dark Blood Sword required far more energy than they could imagine.
That's why Principal Os went to the council of elders again.
Clearly, no solution has been found.
If Genny, who has been studying magic for less than three years, could think of this so quickly, then theoretically, Director Parr should have thought of it as well.
"Then you...you...me..."
“Actually, there’s no need to be too sad,” Genny racked his brains. “There’s another possibility, like we become ethereal energy bodies and stay inside the Ultimate Sorey Holy Sword, becoming the sword’s form or something. Then I’ll have to trouble you to find me a body as handsome as I am now. But it’s also possible that, like the Dark Emperor, we need a huge amount of energy to have a physical form, so I won’t have to give up my handsome face…”
His words of comfort were ineffective; however, Ou Pa's handkerchief came in handy.
Although it's unclear why Principal Os didn't tell Director Pa directly, this chaotic scene of comforting someone will surely happen again.
The fact that Director Pa only found out about this means that Teacher Da Tian Tian will also find out about it soon.
