Chapter 3823 Cirno:? ? ?

*************************************************** ***************************************

The source of magic?

I thought about it for a while. It was such a familiar term. I seemed to have heard it somewhere recently.

By the way, isn't it what Tia has been looking for? !

I clapped my hands and understood, realized, but the problem came again.

"What does the source of magic have to do with you?"

"Wu's statement is very strange. Why can't the source of magic have something to do with me?"

"But that's where the magic comes from."

"Do you know what the source of magic is?"

"I know only a little bit." Faced with the red and white princess' scrutinizing gaze, I looked away guiltily and tried to recall what Tia had said to me, but I couldn't remember it. Let's just leave it at that. It's part of life to just muddle through. .

"That's great," she said unexpectedly.

"What's good?"

"Since I don't understand anything, I don't have to explain myself."

"No, at this time, shouldn't you explain it to me more clearly?" Also, I just said clearly that I have only a partial understanding. Where did you translate it into "not understanding anything", although your guess is correct.

"Anyway, I can't remember such an insignificant thing even if I say it."

"..." This is the truth, wait, it is not an insignificant thing. Although I can't remember what the source of magic is, I still remember that Tia said that if we can obtain the source of magic, our combat power will increase. Soaring.

Things that can improve the combat effectiveness of the Holy See Mountain are good things and are not irrelevant. I will not allow you to be so rude to the source of magic!

"Ahem, don't be so blunt. I still know a little bit about the source of magic. As the name suggests, it is the source of magic, right?"

"It's not wrong to understand it this way."

You see, right, it’s easy to understand, right? Poor memory can be compensated by IQ, do you understand?

"As long as you can obtain the source of magic, your strength will increase rapidly, right?"

"You could say the same thing."

"..." I stretched out my hand wordlessly.

"The action of stretching out my hand to beg is really like the way I took out the money box. Why don't you sign the contract and become a witch?"

Don't compare me to you, you bastard, you were stealing by taking out the money box!

"It seems you won't lend me the source of magic easily."

"There is no free lunch in the world. I am very happy that Wu can take the initiative to understand this truth."

"But you've been free for many lunches at my house."

"This is this, that is that, they can't be lumped together." Even a shrine maiden with no integrity knows how to be soft-spoken. When she said this, her eyes were wandering and her confidence was slightly lacking.

"Okay, I'm too lazy to complain about you. Let's get straight to the point. How expensive is this lunch? At least there must be a price, or is it impossible to get it anyway?" He is eager to improve the combat effectiveness of the Holy See Mountain. , which made me eager to skip the chatting time.

"It's not impossible. It's not even difficult for Wu."

"Really?" I was so excited that my whole body was trembling, and I was trembling.

"Really, but the problem is, it's not up to me to be recognized by the source of magic."

"It's not up to you, wait!" I finally realized, recalling my initial question, what is the relationship between this guy and the source of magic?

"So, what is the relationship between the source of magic and your witch clan?"

"Sorry, this is forbidden."

"While he was talking, he took out the money box with his hand, which was really neat."

"I am over-flattered."

After reluctantly donating a large amount of money that could make the Red and White Princess show off her power for three minutes, she moistened her lips and wanted to take a sip of tea, then looked down at the cup with a sad expression.

I won’t complain about you anymore, I won’t complain about you anymore, bastard!

"To put it simply, we, the miko clan, are the... guardians of the source of magic? Or is it more appropriate to be the custodian?"

"Could it be that what you are guarding is the source of magic?" I exclaimed, seeming to have grasped a glimmer of the truth.

"Oh, that's not true, it's just incidental, incidental." As soon as the key point was mentioned, the moral princess started to fight again, haha, even then and there, without giving me a chance to discuss it in depth.

"What does your recycling of the source of magic have to do with Nana?"

"Haven't you noticed yet?"

Recalling Princess Loli's talent that should not exist in this world, I was a little surprised: "Could it be that Nana is the source of magic?"

"This statement is not very accurate. It is our fault. I accidentally let the source of magic that has not yet conceived a mind slip out. By chance, the princess of the Horadric tribe was born."

"So, the cause of Nana's illness is that she carries the source of magic, right?"

"Yes, that is not a force that the human body can bear."

"You just seemed to have mentioned the word nurturing the mind. Could it be that the source of magic also has the mind."

"Actually, the source of magic can be understood as the ten sins." The Red and White Princess thought for a while, maybe considering my IQ, and started to use some expressions that I had already understood before to help me understand.

"The source of magic is the purest wandering energy in the world. Because of this, they are difficult to restrain. In order to prevent them from running around and facilitate management, it is necessary to help them condense into an incarnation and give them a fixed form. , and give birth to the mind.”

"For example, it is like choosing a king as a representative from a scattered human being to unite and restrain their people."

"I understand, I understand, don't sound like a kindergarten teacher."

"The source of magic that gives birth to the mind is equivalent to having life. In this case, it cannot escape the original laws of this world, life and death, even the elements are no exception. The old king dies, and the new king has not yet been born. It is the most difficult to manage the source of magic that has fallen into a state of fragmentation again, and the accident that happened to the Horadric princess was caused by this."

"I see, there is such a setting." I clapped my hands, feeling like I had learned completely useless new knowledge.

"I still have a question, why do you want to tie up the source of magic?"

"Because of the fear of being abused, the source of magic is a power that can damage the origin of this world." The Red and White Princess glanced at me and said helplessly: "Humans, in particular, are the most tolerant, and they must not be allowed to master this kind of power. "

"You are really the guardians of this world?!"

"I told you that it wasn't true. Sui Wu doesn't understand. Anyway, he won't lose a piece of meat."

"Okay, you don't have to admit it. Let's go back to the issue of recycling the source of magic. What will happen to Nana if it is recycled?"

"Isn't that obvious? He will die."

"Eh? Shouldn't the root of the disease be removed?"

"The source of magic is too deeply integrated with her, and they are one with each other. Even the ancestors cannot take out the source of magic while saving their lives."

"But after experiencing that dream, Nana didn't seem to be dead. How many years did she live?"

"First of all." This question made the red and white princess think for a few seconds before answering.

"This is also part of the plan, in order to make the Horadric tribe who have taken the wrong path get the punishment they deserve."

I won't tell the truth. It was the ancestor who had an idea and came up with the method. He originally wanted to directly extract the source of magic and then use other means to cause the decline of the Horadric clan.

Thinking like this, she subconsciously took a sip from the tea cup and pretended to moisten her lips: "Secondly, in the final analysis, this is also caused by our mistakes, so we want to make some amends to give the princess a different kind of new life."

He wouldn't tell the truth, and he didn't even care about the life or death of the Horadric princess at the beginning.

Therefore, due to the sudden appearance of someone, the miko clan who originally stood at the height of the clouds overlooking the entire earth became a righteous card-faced person who cherishes life!

"I don't see it, but you miko clan are quite responsible."

"Isn't that right? It's necessary. If you feel moved, please donate more. This is also for justice and to protect the world." The red and white princess skillfully took out the money box.

"Sorry, I will no longer have the illusion that [you are protecting this world]."

"It's really not the right time to wake up." The Red and White Princess was a little frustrated. She probably regretted reminding me of this matter several times.

At this point, I finally figured out the cause and effect of the entire incident, and all the doubts in my mind were gone.

So here comes the topic, how should I get to know a magical source of magic and get its recognition?

When I proposed to the Red and White Princess that I was going to pay 699 to become a distinguished Crystal Lily member of Gensokyo and successfully join hands with the source of magic, this guy looked at me with the eyes of a distressed idiot.

"Don't you already know the source of magic?"

"who?"

"Cirno!"

"..."

"…………"

"………………"

"Wait, you mean Cirno? That idiot Cirno?!"

"Who else but her?"

"But it's impossible, she can't be."

"Why is it impossible for Cirno?"

"She...she's so stupid." I was so anxious that I refused to admit that what I was pursuing was actually...a fool.

"Why do you think..." When the red and white princess said this, she showed a trace of sadness, as if she had some unbearable experience.

"Don't you think the source of magic can't be a fool?"

Yes, why? Who says the source of magic can't be a fool? Even among the group of noble saviors, fools have appeared.

"After all, magic is a symbol of wisdom." I still refused to believe it.

"It should be said that people who use magic, magicians, are a relatively intelligent group, but magic itself does not necessarily represent wisdom. We should think about it on the other hand, if magic is not stupid, how can it be used by magicians? How about being easily manipulated?"

It seems to make sense?

I held my forehead and shook my head, but I still couldn't get rid of the alpaca racing in my mind.

But then again.

If it was that Cirno...

Wouldn't that be easy to fool? !

I suddenly understood why the Red and White Princess told me at the beginning that it was not that difficult for me to use the power of the source of magic.

It turns out that there is only one idiot between me and the source of magic!
