Chapter 322: Undead Sword Saint Sevia?
The Domain of a Wizard is vast.
It is based on Soul Power.
To achieve self-ascension, to converge the possibilities of truth, and to reach the unprecedented ends of the world.
Knowledge of potions, magic items, and spell formations are all ladders leading to the truth.
It is not that powerful Wizards control these Domains.
Rather, it is those strong enough to control these Domains who are qualified to ascend to higher-ranking Wizards.
At night.
Xu Xi was crafting a magic item so that Sevia could use it.
"The fangs of a female Dragon, while not exactly top-tier forging material, are sufficient for Sevia's current strength."
"Besides that, there is a little bit of silver mother, star iron ore, and damaged armor from a Headless Knight."
"I hope my current level of magic item crafting won't waste these materials."
Inside the workshop.
In a room inscribed with noise-canceling formations.
Xu Xi contemplated alone, with several thick tomes floating beside him, activating pre-prepared spell formations to either provide ample light or stabilize the transmission of Soul Fire.
Then.
Xu Xi raised his hand slightly, and an object resembling a Magic Wand appeared, held lightly in his palm.
The Wizard system is similar to the magic system.
They also have the habit of using a Magic Wand.
But in the Wizard World, a Magic Wand is not a necessity; the activation of many spell formations depends on the user themselves.
The reason Xu Xi uses a Magic Wand is simply because he is used to it.
"Well then, let's begin."
Holding the Magic Wand, he tapped it lightly against the floor.
Deep blue Soul Fire twisted and rotated, transforming into pure Soul Power, surging into the various prepared materials to modify and shape them.
It was a modification at the microscopic level.
It perfectly combined the extraordinary properties of various materials.
The process could be called art.
"According to the original plan, the armor for the body will adopt a lightweight, easy-to-move style."
"At the same time, I will inscribe some spell formations to slightly enhance Sevia's combat power."
"For the length of the knight sword, I will model it after Sevia's existing sword, and on that basis, add sharpness enhancement, durability enhancement, and Soul guidance enhancement."
"In that case…"
"Sevia's strength will be greatly improved."
The beautiful azure was like the waves of the ocean.
Continuous and unending.
It rippled on the walls of the temporary workshop.
At the same time, it left interlacing light and shadows on Xu Xi's face.
With a light wave of the Magic Wand, the powerful Soul Power materialized, turning the calm azure into a raging sea, submerging and compressing all the materials.
Destruction, reorganization, creation.
This cycle was repeated many times.
The crafting of the magic item finally came to an end.
"Pfft—", a sound like a bubble bursting rang out, followed by the dull thud of a heavy object falling to the ground.
A gray and silver full-body armor, a sharp, cold, silver-white longsword.
This was the magic item Xu Xi had prepared for Sevia.
Whether it was the attacking longsword or the defensive armor, both were inscribed with a certain number of spell formation patterns.
It looked very magical and beautiful.
"It seems a bit too conspicuous," Xu Xi murmured. He waved the Magic Wand again, and all the activated spell formation patterns returned to calm, becoming actively triggered.
Only when Sevia wanted to use them would the patterns on them flow again.
Whoosh—
Whoosh—
Outside, the sharp whistling of airflow caught Xu Xi's attention.
He subconsciously looked toward the doorway. The late-night blood moon illuminated everything, making it all a crimson red. In that eerie terror, a figure continued to swing a sword.
One sword strike after another, never stopping.
The aura of the dead still shrouded her.
That was an unchangeable, desperate fact.
In the crimson night, everything became eerie and silent. Even the small town in the distance was twisting and changing in the darkness, like a giant mouth devouring people.
Only that figure remained unchanged.
"Sevia is working very hard today too…"
Xu Xi watched for a long time.
He only felt that the skeletal figure, constantly slashing and emitting bursts of sword whistling sounds, was flickering with a hazy shimmer.
That was something formless and intangible, yet real.
It was the knightly spirit that Sevia Claufeel held fast to, and the small dream she had carried from childhood, the desire to change herself.
"Sevia is good in every way, except she is too afraid of being lonely."
Xu Xi looked up at the moon. The crimson full moon hung in the sky like a giant eye dripping with blood, coldly watching everything on the ground.
Growing up in a noble family, Sevia had received a complete elite education.
She was strong.
She was kind.
Even after suffering a curse and having most of her body turned into an undead, she had never fallen into true despair and still kept helping others.
Such a Sevia was very brave, but also very lonely.
She craved for someone to talk to her.
When the people of Claufeel had all moved away, Xu Xi had truly seen the quiet darkness revealed on the remaining half of her face.
It was worrying.
A burden? A liability?
Xu Xi did not think so.
"Sevia's sword skills are very exquisite. Even if she cannot Cultivate to become a Wizard, I can strengthen that undead body, indirectly enhancing Sevia's power."
"This is probably… an Undead Sword Saint?"
The blood moon spilled its cold light, falling onto Xu Xi's open palm.
He smiled.
He began to look forward to the future, where Sevia would be chasing and hacking through waves of the undead.
[You have forged brand new equipment for the hero]
[The hero has put on the Undead Knight Armor]
[The hero has grasped the Flame Poison Dragon Sword]
[Regarding the new equipment, Sevia expresses that she is very satisfied and thanks you]
[Facing the brand new Sevia, you have a sense of déjà vu like playing a raising simulation game]
The blood moon set.
The black sun descended.
In the dim world, Sevia, having changed into her new equipment, gently stroked the armor on her body with her fingertips, then raised her longsword high, carefully examining the patterns on it.
Due to the missing part of her face, Xu Xi could not see the girl's expression.
But the trembling emerald ripples.
The eyes looking excitedly at Xu Xi.
Had already made everything clear.
"How does it feel, Sevia?"
"Thank you, I like it very much!"
Sevia turned it over and over, constantly rubbing the Dragon sword in her hand.
That joy did not seem like a warrior getting a handy weapon, but more like an innocent child receiving a very delicious lollipop.
"Lord Wizard."
She turned around.
On her face, wrapped in bandages, her only remaining bright eye shone with a jade-like luster.
It clearly reflected Xu Xi's figure.
"I really, really like it!"
A child who grew up in the light, after falling into the abyss of loneliness, had, for the first time in a long while, received a gift from the light.
"Then I can rest assured."
Listening to Sevia's answer, a smile appeared on Xu Xi's face.
"Lord Wizard."
Sevia spoke again, looking curiously at the longsword in her hand: "It's just like a story, getting excellent equipment, and then setting off on a journey or something."
"Sevia, rather than being in a story, it would be better to say that you are creating a new story."
Xu Xi corrected the girl's words.
Creating a story…
The undead hero was stunned for a moment. She did not feel she had that kind of qualification, but inexplicably, there was a trace of expectation in her heart.
