Chapter 50 You are, Lucy Heartfilia?
Chapter 50 You are, Lucy Heartfilia?
"Aha, ahahaha..."
Hearing Chase's completely unfriendly introduction, Lucy's vision immediately went black.
Who would use phrases like "that guy" and "incredibly weak" to describe their partner?
Being silly would be even more rude!
What's even more heartbreaking is that she had no way to refute it...
Chess, I'm glad you're willing to help ease the tension, but I didn't like the tone of your voice just now!
While he was internally complaining, the dark mage opposite him nodded slightly, lowered his arms, and slowly walked over to greet him.
"Hello, I am the Dark Magician."
"Hello, I'm Lucy."
Lucy's lips twitched as she forced a forced smile.
So concise!
It's definitely not my type to handle this kind of situation...
"I just heard from my master that the magic you're using is capable of summoning celestial spirits from another world, right?"
"For summoning-type summoners, much like their master, the user's magical power is of paramount importance."
"In addition, one's physical condition, the speed at which one opens the gate, and the choice to confront the Protoss are all key factors that affect the outcome of the battle."
The Dark Mage rested his chin on one hand, gave a brief analysis, and then looked at Lucy seriously. "Could I see your Celestial Spirit Magic first?"
huh?
So, are we getting straight to the point?
Lucy blinked, standing there a little bewildered.
Just now, she was trying to figure out what lighthearted topic to use to break down that damned sense of distance.
To my utter surprise, this sense of distance simply doesn't exist with the Dark Magician!
She was overthinking it...
"Yes, Mr. Dark Magician!"
An invisible sense of pressure made Lucy involuntarily straighten her body, and she also adopted the honorific title.
But when she looked down at the Celestial Spirit key hanging on her waist, she inevitably fell into deep thought, struggling with which Celestial Spirit to use for the display.
Baru-go?
If this guy sees the staff in the Dark Mage's hand, he'll probably say something weird on the spot.
Talos?
Forget about the lecherous cow...
Prue?
My attempt to be cute is more about showing off than actually doing anything; people might think I'm just trying to be funny.
Aquaria?
Lucy immediately pictured Aquarius's fiery expression, as if she were going through menopause.
This is absolutely not acceptable!
After tearing the images in her mind to shreds, Lucy's eyes lit up as she finally discovered the most suitable Celestial Spirit.
"Open, Clockwork Gate! Holorochim!"
The silver key spun between her fingers, and the magic circle lit up.
After a flash of light, a "ding-dong" sound was heard, and Hololochim, with long, thin black hands and feet and shaped like an old-fashioned clock, appeared.
Hololochim?
Chess, filled with curiosity, took a closer look.
Although it is only a silver key, Horologim has always held a place among the "strongest Protoss" due to its unparalleled immunity to damage.
However, Lucy obviously did not have this idea. The reason she chose Hololochim was probably because, as a veteran Protoss, he had a wealth of knowledge and a calm personality.
"Lady Lucy, it's 8:36 PM now~"
The clock on Hololochm's body swung gently.
"Horolochim, I didn't tell you to come out and announce the time."
Lucy stretched out her arms and waved them in front of her chest, signaling to Hololochim to be aware of the current atmosphere.
"Oh, in the Giltina Continent, it's exactly 7 PM~"
Lucy: "..." How embarrassing.
After the introductions, Hololochim finally understood the situation and greeted Chase and the others whom he was meeting for the first time.
The Dark Mage quickly got into the zone, asking Hololochim for more details about Celestial Magic and having Lucy demonstrate the spells several times.
Then, he swiftly returned to his deck and calmly devised a targeted training plan.
Magic power has always been Lucy's weakness. If she could improve it, even without forcibly activating her second magic source, she would be qualified to learn the legendary super magic of the stars, the Star Chart Chronicles.
Further down the line, the Celestial Robe, which allows the use of Celestial power, might be realized even earlier!
At that time, Lucy, who possesses the level of an S-class mage, will definitely get some pretty good cards!
Thinking of this, a hopeful smile appeared on Chase's lips.
"Ah! There it is again, Chesgo's terrifying smile!"
Lucy, who had finally breathed a sigh of relief because the Dark Magician had left, instantly went on high alert.
Although I really want to thank Chess and Dark Magician Girl for their concern, why does it feel like there's some kind of conspiracy going on for no reason?
"Yay! Master is finally gone."
Compared to the suspicion in her eyes, the dark mage girl, who had been sitting upright the whole time, let out a heavy sigh of relief and slumped on the sofa like a lump of pink mud, showing none of the image a cute and beautiful girl should have.
Lucy, deeply moved, simply stopped worrying about Chase and plopped down on the sofa.
Anyway, Chess wouldn't harm her; at most, he'd just get a beating.
Although they hadn't known each other for long, she trusted Chess completely—except for the possibility that he might knock her flying during a sparring match!
"By the way, I remember the Lalabai I met in Crobal Town, wasn't he the demon from Zeref's Dark Mage book?"
Lucy suddenly remembered something, her eyes widened, and she exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be that Mr. Dark Magician...?"
"Don't overthink it, there's absolutely no connection between them." Chase picked up his teacup and took a sip.
It's not really Lucy's fault; even he, a time traveler, thought it was quite a coincidence.
Not only are their names and titles highly similar, but they have also lived for a very long time, and even the magic they are good at using is "dark magic" that can easily take lives!
I wonder if the Dark Magician can break the immortality curse of the god Ankhseram on Zeref?
Chase had discussed this issue with the Dark Mage a long time ago, but since he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, the Dark Mage couldn't give a precise answer.
"I was quite surprised when I heard that title."
The dark magician girl lay on the coffee table, swirling a teacup with her slender, white fingers, looking quite adorable.
"I see..." Lucy exclaimed.
"Speaking of which, Lucy, there's actually a question I've wanted to ask you ever since I met you," Chase suddenly asked.
"Give up, there's no way I'm going to tell you your measurements!" Lucy immediately became wary.
"Didn't I already say I'm not very interested in that?"
Chase slowly put down his teacup, spread his hands, and his relaxed expression disappeared.
Seeing his unusually serious expression, Lucy sensed that it might really be a very serious problem and immediately became a little nervous.
Sure enough, the next second, the words that came out of Chase's mouth stunned her as if she had been struck by lightning.
"I think I saw you two years ago during a security escort service for a business event."
"You are the young lady of the renowned Heartfilia Merchant Guild in the Kingdom of Fiore..."
"Lucy Heartfilia?"
