Chapter 964 Great Magician: Hanyu Kusunoki
Chapter 964 Great Magician: Hanyu Kusunoki
Koizumi Hongzi stood inside the door, looking at Hanyu Kusunoki who looked refreshed, with relaxed features, and obviously not affected by the magic potion at all. Instead, she looked as moisturized as if she had just finished a SPA. She was furious.
The witch's dignity and magical attainments were crushed to the ground.
"On time? Ha~"
She sneered, her trademark, slightly neurotic and arrogant laugh, her red eyes filled with dissatisfaction. "I just happened to have a feeling that there would be 'uninvited guests' disturbing the peace and quiet today, so I came to see which unruly crow was banging on the door."
——He never mentioned that he might have had the slightest expectation.
As she spoke, she reluctantly moved aside to make way.
Hanyu Kusunoki didn't care about her sharp words and walked into the castle at a leisurely pace.
A cool air filled the air, a mixture of the scent of ancient stone, dusty books, and various exotic herbs.
The interior decoration is extremely retro and luxurious, with heavy tapestries, cold armor, and flickering candlelight, everything is in line with people's imagination of a medieval castle.
A puppet dressed in classical butler's attire, with a hollow look in its eyes and stiff movements, slid over silently and took the nonexistent coat.
"Go prepare two cups of black tea and send them to the basement studio."
Hongzi ordered without even turning around.
The puppet butler bowed silently and retreated quietly.
Hongzi then glanced at Hanyu Kusunoki, her chin slightly raised. "Come with me, and be careful not to touch anything. Many of the furnishings here are enchanted with ancient protective or cursed magic. If you touch them and die or turn into a frog, don't blame me for not warning you."
She took the lead and walked forward, beating out a clear and lonely rhythm in the empty stone corridor.
Hanyu Kusunoki followed leisurely, looking at everything along the way with interest. Although the interior of the castle was old, it was still clean and tidy, and it was obvious that someone or a puppet took care of it on a daily basis.
It's not like the haunted houses in some horror movies.
However, when Hongzi pushed open a hidden, heavy stone door engraved with runes, walked down the spiral stone steps, and actually entered her witch studio.
The style of painting suddenly changed!
It can be called a magical version of "The Secrets of the Otaku's Room".
If the upper part is a historical site that can receive visitors and maintain its appearance, the lower part is a complete...disaster scene and a personal relaxation space.
The vast underground space was littered with all sorts of bizarre materials: clusters of shimmering crystals, plant roots and animal organs soaked in strange liquids, exotic herbs drying on racks, parchment scrolls and ancient books scattered across the floor, half-drawn magic circles, and various unnamed minerals and powders emitting varying energy fluctuations...
On the beams of the roof, there were a few pitch-black crows, looking at the visitors below curiously with their blood-red eyes, occasionally making a "cawing" sound.
The most conspicuous and most destructive to the mystery of the witch is the classic witch battle suit with a deep V design, economical fabrics and extremely seductiveness, which is casually hung on a gorgeous retro hanger.
Scattered around were several pairs of boots of various styles and...a pair of cute furry slippers.
Apparently...
This is where Miss Witch can truly take off her disguise, let go of herself, and do whatever makes her feel comfortable.
It perfectly illustrates what it means to be "bright and beautiful on the outside but a mess at home."
Koizumi Hongzi suddenly stopped in her tracks, an extremely unnatural blush and embarrassment flashed across her face, and she wished she could immediately cast a spell to clean up the entire studio with one click.
She was so busy being angry and maintaining her proud persona that she completely forgot that she was usually the only one in this place. It didn't matter how messy it was, no one would clean it up, and she was too lazy to ask the housekeeper to come down and clean up the magic materials.
This messy look completely destroyed her mysterious and elegant image as Lady Hongzi!
"cough!"
She coughed dryly, trying to block Hanyu Kusunoki's sight with her body, and said in a forced calm tone, "...The temporary lab is a bit messy, and several important projects are underway... Don't worry about these insignificant details!"
Hanyu Kusunoki suppressed a laugh and nodded in agreement, "I understand. The master's studio is always filled with...creative passion."
She is indeed the kind of stay-at-home girl I imagined her to be.
No matter how proud or powerful she is, she can't get rid of the witch's inherent homebody nature and her sloppy and cute private self?
Hongzi felt uncomfortable being stared at and quickly walked to a slightly tidier area in the middle of the studio.
There were several stone platforms with crucibles, scales, grinders and other tools on them. Next to it was a high-backed chair that looked very comfortable, like her "throne".
"sit down."
She pointed unhappily at a stone bench that looked like it was used for "experimental materials." "Today is our agreed-upon 'magic seminar,' though I don't think there's much to discuss with someone as unconventional as you... What kind of magic do you know?"
She folded her arms and looked down at him with scrutiny and a hint of subtle curiosity.
She still hasn't figured out the source of Hanyu Kusunoki's power.
But the opponent's spiritual energy is indeed terrifying. Even the last time the two of them "competed", the opponent summoned a bunch of big monsters from Japanese legends.
Hanyu Kusunoki sat down on the stone bench without hesitation. After hearing this, he touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
What magic does he know?
Well... does a bolt of justice from the sky count?
It seems to be mainly due to the angels' technological power...
He thought about it and snapped his fingers.
"Crack!"
A tiny but extremely dazzling spark appeared out of nowhere, jumped lively at his fingertips, and then disappeared into the air.
It's not very powerful, but it does create electricity out of thin air.
Koizumi Hongzi raised an eyebrow, a hint of "That's it?" flashed in her red eyes: "Elemental manipulation? Just a crude lightning trick..."
Before she finished speaking, Hanyu Nan's mind moved again.
Hongzi, who was sitting elegantly on her high-backed chair "throne", suddenly felt an invisible force enveloping her. With a cry of surprise, she floated up without warning and hovered in the air.
"you!"
She was shocked and angry, and tried to struggle, but found that she was unable to resist this unreasonable force composed purely of huge energy. She was like a doll caught by an invisible hand.
"Telekinesis... or the Force? Maybe that counts?"
Hanyu Kusunoki touched his chin, thinking, and then strengthened his intention a little.
The red piece suspended in the air began to spin in place like a slow-speed gyroscope.
"Hanyu Kusunoki!"
The witch lady's voice was filled with shame and anger.
Hanyu Kusunoki knew when to stop and gently put her back on the chair.
Then his body became blurry, and the next moment, he disappeared directly on the stone bench, even his breath disappeared without a trace.
Invisible!
A few seconds later, he reappeared at the same spot.
Well, with the power of angels, telekinesis, and the effect of talismans, to round it off, he can be considered a great magician who practices both magic and martial arts, right?
Although the skill tree is a bit crooked.
