Chapter 36 Cognition

Looking at these symbols, Ash Rufate gradually fell into a trance state of mind. His eyes finally stopped on a symbol. There was a mistake here. The black magic energy should be gathered instead of stopping. He stretched out his hand and gently stroked the rock wall. As his fingers touched the rock wall, the magic symbol disappeared from the rock wall. Then, his hand drew another symbol in the empty position. He did not use any medium of writing such as ink, charcoal strips, etc., but his fingers drew a flashing magic symbol on the empty rock wall.

All the symbols here are not painted with ink or charcoal powder, but are the purest and most condensed black magic energy. Because these energy continues to flow, they cannot be condensed into dimensional stones.

"This is impossible!" Seeing all this, Xingjian exclaimed. The entire basement is actually a complete magic circle used to gather black magic energy for people to use. This magic circle was studied by the two sisters in a completely independent state, but Ash Rufate interpreted it in just a few minutes and was able to make modifications. Don't talk about the modifications right, but he obviously already fully understood these complex magic symbols and mastered the flow trajectory of the black magic energy in the magic circle.

This voice made Ash Rufate shudder and woke up from his sleepwalking state just now.

"I...uh...this was just now..." He looked at his hand, then at the symbol he had just drawn on the wall. What did I do just now? As he recalled what he had done just now, his mind was throbbing. At that moment, he felt that he was only one step away from his lost memory, as if half of his foot had stepped out of this boundary and was about to touch the closed part of his mind.

But the next moment, a heterogeneous and cold feeling emerged. This was the cage that imprisoned his lost memory. This cage once again blocked his face, ruthlessly separating his lost memory from his mind.

Although it was a long story, in the eyes of the two sisters, it was actually only a moment. In their eyes, Ashu Rufate stood there, looking at his hand in disbelief.

"I...how can I...I understand?!" Ashu Rufate finally calmed down and subconsciously asked this question.

"Because too, you." Xingke replied. Although she spoke like this, her body posture and expression still maintained the previous vigilance.

"I'm... a black magician too?" Ashu Rufate looked at the magic symbols on the wall in disbelief. He was in a normal state of consciousness, but he could still understand these symbols. What this means is self-evident.

Ash Rufate took a deep breath. The impact of this incident on him was not as great as he imagined, because he found that he had completely accepted this reality. No matter what, the familiarity of his body and the knowledge about black magic that he instinctively recalled in his mind were definitely not lie.

"That's right..." Ashu Rufat suddenly understood why this pair of young and beautiful sisters had been waiting for him as a fiancé. He turned to look at Xingke who was vigilant again. Now he understood why he raped them. As a fiancé who came to the door from afar, why did he boldly do such stupid things?

It's because of this kind of fearlessness.

"But this magic circle..." Ashu Rufate had heard the conversation between the two sisters before, and now he fully understood the meaning of those words. "... It has been running for too long, and even if it is removed immediately now, there is no way to stop the trend of the gathering of black magic..."

"Even if we completely destroy it and erase the traces, the effect of this black magic energy collection will not disappear." Xing Ke replied.

"That is to say... Once someone else discovers it here..." Ashu Rufate said. He didn't continue, but everyone knew that if a black magician was discovered, there would definitely be no good results. The church is very enthusiastic about burning the black magician to death.

"Why are you building this magical altar here?" Ashu Rufate walked to the side of the two sisters. Xingke was still vigilant, but his expression and movements had eased a lot.

Ashrufat began to carefully observe the magic symbols on the ground. Although he could understand it, he felt unfamiliar. This made him understand that this was the first time he saw such a magic circle. He instinctively remembered some knowledge related to black magic. This knowledge made him understand that this altar was a very inefficient behavior. Although this magic circle can indeed gather black magic energy from the air, it took a long time, which was far less convenient and fast than ordinary casting methods. The energy collected by this altar in a month was achieved by a black magician’s meditation for one or two hours.

"There is no better place." Xingjian said. "We don't... want to do bad things... we just want to find the right way to use black magic."

"Black magic is a kind of depravity." Ash Rufate said. Although he now understands that he is also a black magician, his position of speaking cannot be changed for a while. Those who have a little understanding of magic will understand that although black magic is also a magic energy, it has a fundamental difference from magic. The key is that the eight winds of magic will not affect the change of human beings, at least it will not change human minds, and the black magic energy will greatly affect human beings' health and minds. Long-term immersion in black magic energy (for black magicians, this is inevitable), it will inevitably distort the magician's mind and will, allowing them to embark on the path of evil.

Although this is the propaganda that the church is working hard, it is by no means groundless. There are enough examples to prove this. Within the scope of the human world, the black magician manipulated a small undead legion and humans as enemies, but recorded a thick book on the church. Receiving the sleeping dead back to this world and manipulating them to fight the living is the greatest sin in itself.

"Black magic energy is just a kind of energy, there will be no evil or justice. Just like weapons, weapons do not have good or evil, only good or bad. Only those who hold weapons have good or bad." Xing Ke replied.

"But you can't deny that...it does affect human health and mind."

"That's right, so the correct manipulation method is needed." Xing Ke said. "With this energy, the magician himself cannot be used as a medium for casting. We have already achieved preliminary results!"

“Preliminary results.”

"It is possible to produce magical effects without introducing black magic into your body." Xing Ke said. "For example, I am like this now."

Her hand drew a symbol in the air again, and the magic symbols flashing around immediately dimmed and returned to the original flashing state.

"Our black magic was completely studied by ourselves," said Xingke. "And we have never done anything like the resurrection dead. Sooner or later, we will make the church admit that there is no necessary connection between black magic and evil deeds." Her voice was full of confidence and pride.

"Will others believe it?" Ash Rufate suddenly said. His eyes were taken back from the magic circle and looked at the faces of the two sisters. "Can you get the opportunity to prove yourself? I see that the church burns you to death in almost every ten times, instead of listening to your detailed explanation of the 'correct' method of using black magic."

This sentence suddenly dispelled the passion of the two sisters, and both of them showed obvious depressed expressions.

"It's not possible yet. We have no results yet, but we will definitely do it in the future!" Xingke finally cheered up. "But now, this matter must be a secret."

"Of course." Ash Rufate replied. "The question is how to keep it confidential."

"Our land must not fall into the hands of others!" Xing Ke said. "Even if it is temporarily not possible!"

"But Eo has... made the accusation. Regardless of the motive, his accusation itself seems reasonable."

"Not like this!" Xingjian said. "I'm afraid this matter...is also mysterious. Aunt Mary once warned us... Forget it, let's go back first and tell you as you go."

...

Asu Ruffat walked into his room. He had already said that this was a room for guests to stay in, divided into two rooms inside and outside. The inner part was a bedroom, and the outer part was a table, chairs and cabinets. He came to the bed and lay down with his clothes.

Tonight, he seemed to know a lot of things. It was not just about the two sisters, but about himself. It turned out that I was a black magician?

Am I a mercenary and a black magician? Ashu Rufate asked himself in his heart. Although it sounded incredible, he did not think it was too bizarre.

He stretched out a hand and clearly condensed a ball of black magic energy into his hand. He must have done this countless times in the past. But he also knew clearly that in terms of black magic, this is just the foundation of the foundation. This is the most basic use that cannot even be called "skills". As for higher-end skills, although he knows how to do it, he cannot do it well.

A mercenary who learned some knowledge of black magic by chance? This way it can be explained. Because he was born in a knight family, he was able to read literacy through texts. Then, by a coincidence, he learned some black magic skills from a book or a black magician from curiosity or ambition.

Speaking of which, mercenaries are the most chaotic group in the world. Especially those mercenary groups, there are all kinds of people, from criminals to nobles. It is not surprising that a black magician or something appears.

He suddenly remembered that if Grie hadn't lied to him, then the church had come to see two sisters, and a high-level priest came to him.

Of course, when listening to Gri's words, Ashu Rufate thought this was completely nonsense and was a kind of rumor. Let's listen to it for now. Because this story has many flaws.

Grey thought that Aunt Mary was very good at hand and was forced to suppress this matter - let alone this point is incredible. The high-level priests in the church are not objects that can be easily bought. Don’t say that their fanatical beliefs themselves will not allow this. Even if they can be bought, the price is too high to pay. You must know that seizing the black magician is a great achievement in the church. How could a priest in a church miss such an opportunity? The priest who came to the door must have carefully checked it carefully and confirmed that the traces of black magic could not be found before leaving. This shows that the two sisters must have a way to hide their own black magic.

Did I hide myself in the same way in the past? He thought, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
