[Chapter 39 Comnt]
[Seby_Spina: beautiful humor]
[Marceli4326r3: I got a question for you theory you can do illusions but can you like alter these illusions to make them real so the king is really defeated?]
…
"Did you just defeat a Noble Rank Supernatural Being? No, more like you overwheld it," Nana gasped, questioning Theo.
Theo shrugged. "You've witnessed everything, so I don't think I need to explain further. Besides, your purification talismans are still necessary."
"Huh?" Nana was puzzled, but Theo pointed behind him.
As she looked again, she realized that the king was lying on the ground. Although he had lost an arm, he appeared to be breathing. Additionally, the other two subordinates were securely tied up by Theo. She had almost forgotten about their presence.
Theo's intention was for her to purify the two subordinates and imdiately take the injured man to the hospital. Despite telling the students that she would bear responsibility for killing the three civilians, Theo had actually ensured that all three targets remained alive. Nana understood that the loss of an arm was considered a heavy injury, but as long as nobody died, it was sothing to be rejoiced.
"I understand. I will proceed with the rest imdiately," Nana affird. Suddenly, a ray of light illuminated the area, warming the air.
She couldn't help but look up, realizing that the danger had passed. It seed that she had been more anxious than she had thought. Now that she had regained her composure, she hastened to the two subordinates and purified them.
anwhile, Li Wei and the others approached Theo.
"Teacher, I have learned a lot from this mission," Oliver said, bowing respectfully to him.
"Indeed. However, your performance was slightly below my rqeuirent, so I will deduct one point," Theo remarked with a smile.
"Ugh," Oliver looked annoyed, but the deduction of one point was inconsequential compared to the lessons he had learned during the mission. He shrugged it off.
"Maya, your ability to make decisions based on the information Li Wei provides is comndable. Don't forget to assess your teammates' conditions and adapt accordingly. I will give you one extra point," Theo directed his attention to Nana. "Assist her in transporting these individuals. We need to return quickly."
"Understood. Thank you very much, Teacher," Maya replied, beaming as she gladly helped Nana.
Theo turned to Li Wei and said, "You showed the most improvent during the mission. I will award you two points... I don't think I need to elaborate further on the lessons, but if you have any questions, feel free to ask."
"Thank you very much, Teacher," Li Wei expressed his gratitude, clasping his hands. "In that case, I will head back first. With my speed, I should be able to reach the outside and inform them about our situation."
"Maybe I should deduct one point from you," Theo remarked with a wry smile, correcting his words.
"Huh? Why?" Li Wei was taken aback, but he understood what Theo ant when he pulled out his Lumina. Now that the interference from the supernatural being was gone, they could simply use Lumina to inform the others. Li Wei scratched the back of his head, feeling embarrassed. "I'll inform Nana about it."
"Mhm... Then I will leave the rest to the three of you," Theo nodded and waved his hand as he walked away.
Once he had put so distance between them, he opened the comnts and took his ti responding to them. "I was able to do it in my previous world because I had control over both illusion and reality."
"If you're curious about the principle, in the past, I had the ability to erase soone's existence by transforming it into an illusion and then erasing it as such. I could also inflict a wound in an illusion and integrate that illusion into reality, causing a real injury."
"Currently, the Toon Demon only grants the power of illusion. I don't know if it will provide with sothing similar, but who knows? Even if I can't use that specific ability, there are still other ways to control illusions."
After replying to the comnts, Theo turned around and noticed Maya carrying Oliver and the three civilians, while Nana was busy reporting the situation to her superiors. Li Wei and Oliver were providing first aid to the injured civilian.
Finally, the mission was over, and it hadn't lasted more than four hours.
"I have reported to my superiors. An ambulance has been called, and it's on its way here. We should head towards the exit, and we'll et them along the way," Nana reported.
Noel nodded. "Since we've completed our task, it's ti to leave. Besides, we're scheduled to return tomorrow morning, so we can use this ti to relax."
"Shopping?!" Maya's eyes lit up.
"I want to buy talismans and other things from here. I have the money," Oliver grinned.
"But the trees and boulders I gathered turned out to be useless, right?"
Li Wei shook his head. "I miscalculated the strength of the enemies. They were stronger than expected, rendering the boulders and trees useless."
"I'll try to find so materials then," Oliver nodded in understanding.
Amara seed shocked to learn that the supernatural being had evolved into a Noble Rank. She hurriedly arrived at the scene with a handful of talismans in her hands.
She hurriedly arrived at the scene with a handful of talismans in her hands.
Just as they started heading back, two minutes later, Amara entered their field of vision. She rushed towards them and exclaid, "Where is the Noble Rank Supernatural Being?"
"It has been purified," Nana replied with a wry smile, pointing at Theo. "Mr. Theo has purified it. The three civilians have been safely recovered."
Amara appeared stunned. On one hand, she wanted to believe that everything had concluded. On the other hand, she knew she had to thoroughly investigate before reaching that conclusion.
That was why she had brought a few people with her. With a wave of her hand, Amara instructed them to spread out and investigate the area.
anwhile, as they began to make their way back, Amara decided to accompany them while questioning Nana. "Are you certain it was a noble rank being?"
"It was Nomon."
"Nomon!" Amara gasped, but soon fell into deep thought. "No, I shouldn't be surprised by this. The skeletons and souls have provided enough clues. I see..."
"If you're still not convinced, I can show you the recording," Maya chid in.
"You recorded everything?" Not only Amara, but Li Wei and Oliver were astonished.
"Hehe. This is why it's important to have conversations with people," Maya smirked. "Aurora told to record everything so that we could watch it together. It should prove useful for future reference."
"May I have a copy of the video?" Amara requested.
"I don't mind. However, could you do us a small favor in return? Provide us with a guide or sothing similar since we have so ti before heading back."
Amara let out a sigh and nodded. "Consider it done."
"Hehe. You can watch the video while we're on the move though. Just make sure it's the right one," Maya said as she typed a few commands. The chest part of her exoskeleton projected a screen that displayed the recorded video, starting from the mont Nomon appeared.
"Yes... This is Nomon," Amara squinted her eyes. "The level of essence it's emitting... and its abilities..."
The more she watched the video, the more impressed she beca with Theo's thods. This was the first ti she had witnessed soone utilizing illusions to such a high degree. Theo had made the king believe that his soul was separating, causing the real soul to start the process on its own. And he had effortlessly used the purification talisman to defeat a noble rank supernatural being.
Furthermore, the clown had proven to be mischievous and dangerous despite its comical appearance.
After confirming the contents and the level of threat, Amara made the decision to raise the mission's level.
[Mission: The Haunted Village Investigation (Complete)]
[Difficulty: 3.5 Stars]
[Description: The villagers have been experiencing a rise in ghostly apparitions, poltergeist activity, and unexplained phenona. It is causing distress and fear among the locals, disrupting their daily lives.]
The reward was also improved, and Amara made sure to inform Victoria about the threat they had faced.
With that, Amara expressed her approval of the mission's completion and thanked them for their efforts.
Once they reached the exit, they assisted in getting the injured civilians into ambulances and sent them off. It was truly a miracle that all three of them had survived the ordeal.
As a gesture of gratitude, they were also given so money to spend on souvenirs, which Theo happily accepted.
Li Wei remained in his room. He ticulously organized and sorted out all the lessons and experiences he had gained during the mission. In his original world, he would have secluded himself to fully absorb and internalize the knowledge, but here he had to adapt to the academy's system and settled for writing everything down to review at a later ti.
With his family's wealth, Oliver indulged in searching for additional materials that he could incorporate into his invetory.
Maya, on the other hand, enjoyed her ti shopping for clothes and other necessities that were not readily available in their world.
Theo, however, had a different approach. Instead of shopping, he took the opportunity to explore the town and learn more about the world they were in, particularly about exorcists. The knowledge he had gained from Nana had proven useful in deceiving the king, so he sought to acquire even more knowledge to enhance his illusion abilities.
He visited the museum, the exorcist's office, and various talisman shops, with Nana serving as his guide. Amara had ordered Nana to assist Theo in understanding his perspective, hoping to gain valuable insights to combat supernatural beings.
It was a fulfilling day for Theo, although it was disappointing that their ti was cut short and they had to return so soon.
...
The following day, Amara politely accompanied them to the teleportation portal and bowed in gratitude.
"We are extrely grateful for your deeds. It's rare to eliminate a noble rank supernatural being without any casualties. On behalf of this world and the exorcist agency, I'd like to express my deepest thanks."
"It's our mission, so there's no need for formalities," Theo replied, waving his hand. "Then, we'll be on our way."
"Yes, please have a safe journey."
"Bye!" Oliver and Maya waved their hands, while Li Wei shook Amara's hand. They entered the teleportation portal and returned to the modern realm.
Unfortunately, no one ca to pick them up. However, Theo didn't mind, especially in Mia's case. He had made sure that Mia remained within the academy instead of returning to the apartnt they had lived in during his leave. He wanted to ensure her safety, which was also why he hadn't planned for an extended trip.
Before reuniting with Mia, Theo had to report to the principal. Little did he know, she was waiting for him, accompanied by soone else this ti.
