Tome of Blood

  Chapter 258-108-Black Cat and Black Dragon

  Nice shook his head blankly, with an innocent look on his face.

  The girl glanced at it, and said lightly:

   "To be honest, I don't care about your background, nor do I care about your teacher's succession."

   "I heard that the mages of the Nicholas school have studied some forbidden spells quite deeply, and even mastered the magic that can revive the dead..."

   Speaking of which, the girl's eyes fell on Nisi, her scarlet pupils were full of inquiry:

   "I... am I right?"

  Being watched by the girl's oppressive eyes, Nis couldn't help swallowing.

  It shrank back subconsciously, then bit the bullet and said:

   "Ah...Miss Eudocia, if you want to learn about undead magic, I'm afraid you are looking for the wrong person. I don't know much about cats and cats who have only learned a little in books..."

   "I think, compared to a half-baked person like me, maybe you should ask your contract partner. After all... No one knows the magic of undead better than the senior priest of the Gorefiend Cult."

  Nice looked sincere and frank.

  However, after hearing what it said, the girl named Eudocia's expression sank.

  Terrifying coercion erupted from her body, and the power poured out like a mountain. Under the shocking impact, the spellcasters in the workshop almost fell to the ground at the same time, and fell to their knees in a big plop...

  The girl flashed in front of Nice in an instant, and lifted it up like a chicken.

  Feeling the crazily killing intent on the girl, Nisi quickly yelled in horror:

   "You, you, you...! You can't kill me! I am the one appointed by your leader to stay alive!"

   "I... I also have a contract object! Kill me! My contract master will not forgive you! My master cough cough cough..."

  The feeble threat did not dispel the killing intent on the girl.

  Not only that, but after listening to Nice's words, the young girl's murderous intent seemed to grow stronger.

   An unprecedented sense of crisis surged into Nice's heart, and it quickly changed its tune and shouted:

   "Stop! Stop! I...I know the magic of reviving the dead! Stop! Stop! Cough cough cough..."

   As soon as the words fell, the killing intent like a tide quickly faded away.

  The girl slowly put down the lifted Niss, her scarlet pupils fixedly stared at its slightly constricted pupils due to strong suffocation, and the already cold voice seemed even colder:

   "Let me hear the title of contract partner again, and I will definitely kill you without hesitation."

  Feeling the seriousness in the girl's words, Nice shivered subconsciously.

  It swallowed a mouthful of non-existent saliva, glanced at the expressionless girl with amber eyes, and then cautiously probed:

   "That...Miss Eudocia, did I offend you?"

   "Could it be that I misunderstood, you didn't sign a contract with the priest of the Blood Demon Cult?"

  After listening to Nice's words, the girl glanced at it lightly, and raised the hand that had just been put down.

  Seeing the flash of killing intent in the other party's scarlet pupils, Nice shouted quickly:

   "Stop! Stop—! I won't ask anymore! I really won't ask anymore! Don't... don't be impulsive!"

  The girl slowly retracted her gaze and looked at it calmly.

   After a long time, he said:

   "Say, magic that can revive the dead."

  Nice sighed and said:

   "Then there is only [Resurrection], I know how to cast this kind of magic..."

   "It's just that I really suggest to ask for help from you... well, the leader, the guy who rode you... cough, no, um... the guy who attacked me with you."

   "I don't know much about this aspect, but in Miria, no one has studied the magic of undead more deeply than the blood of Shedet."

  After listening to Nice's words, the girl fell silent.

   After a while, she continued:

   "I don't need the magic of reviving the undead."

   "Huh? Don't need the magic of reviving the undead?"

  Nice froze.

  The girl is still expressionless:

   "I want magic that can revive the dead."

  Nice was stunned again, and then suddenly his eyes twitched:

   "The magic of reviving the dead? Isn't it the magic of reviving the undead?"

   "Wait... Do you mean that you want to wake up those who have died and whose souls have completely disappeared between heaven and earth?!"

  The girl still looked at it quietly, without denying it.

  Nice swallowed hard, and then said embarrassingly:

   "Miss Eudocia, with all due respect... the soul is the source of life, if the soul has dissipated, there is really nothing to do."

   "But I heard that you esoteric mages sent by Nicholas have a more magical resurrection technique..."

  The girl said calmly.

   As she spoke, she took a deep look at Nice:

   "Don't try to deny your identity, even if you become a cat, I can still smell your unique human scent..."

  Nice:…

  After hesitating for a moment, it sighed and said:

   "Miss Eudocia, I think...you may have misunderstood something."

"That's right, I do know some special resurrection techniques, but what you don't know is that the so-called more magical resurrection techniques are not about resurrecting those who don't even have souls, and the dead can't die again, but... Hehe, On the premise of not disturbing the gods, cleverly summon those souls who belonged to the kingdom of God!"

   It seems to be talking about pride, and Nice's expression was full of pride when he said this.

  However, the girl named Eudocia had strange eyes for the first time:

   "Summoning souls returning to the Kingdom of God?"

   "It's no wonder that you esoteric mages of the Nicholas School are listed as targets of hunting by many churches, and all of you are... lunatics."

  Nice is even more proud:

   "Hey! This is called skill! So what about the investigation? As long as I want to, they will not be able to find out! Let alone search, I can still hang around under their noses...cough cough..."

   It seemed to realize that he almost slipped the tongue, it coughed a few times, and quickly stopped the topic.

  However, the girl doesn't seem to care about what it says.

   Taking a peek at the other party, and finding that the other party did not pursue the question, Niss was also relieved.

  It cleared its throat and continued:

   "In short... the soul is a necessary condition for the resurrection of the dead. If the soul is really dissipated, even if the gods come, I am afraid there is nothing they can do."

  After listening to Nice's words, the girl fell silent.

   After a long time, she continued to ask:

   "Really...can't it?"

  Nice shook his head:

   "It really doesn't work, even if you ask the gods, I'm afraid you will get the same answer."

  The girl clenched her fists slightly and remained silent for a long time.

   After a while, she stopped asking questions and turned to leave.

   "Hey! Miss Eudocia! The person you want to revive is a werewolf miner in the Castel Silver Mine?"

  Looking at the back of the girl leaving, Nisi asked quickly.

  The girl paused slightly, but she didn't turn her head, nor did she answer.

  Nice was relieved until the opponent's figure disappeared completely, and then murmured:

   "So... she is really the black dragon in the Castle Mine."

   "Strange, she doesn't seem to be controlled by the Gorefiend Sect, but seems to have come together with the Gorefiend Sect?"

   "No, I have to find a way to escape from here as soon as possible. Being locked up all the time is not an option. I'm afraid that grumpy little female dragon probably guessed my identity..."

   "Although the alchemists of the Legris Family have a good attitude, they are just greedy for my knowledge. The real key is the Blood Demon Cult. If those lunatics know my identity, I'm afraid I'm doomed!"

   "Niss, Niss, what do you think you are proud of? When you are proud, you get carried away, and when you get carried away, you become a fool!"

   "Seeing those alchemists in trouble from the very beginning, you shouldn't have shot!"

   "Oh, no... It doesn't matter if you don't make a move. After all, you have to trade technology for something delicious... But you shouldn't use those technologies that are easy to see in the first place!"

   "No...you have to escape! You have to find a way to escape!"

  Nice talked to himself, quickly made up his mind, and hurriedly searched for the dagger he had just knocked down.

  However, when it looked around, it found that all the "tools" it could reach, which could hope to find a way to cut the chain around the neck while others were not paying attention, had just been taken away by Eudocia.

  Nice:…

   "Shit! On purpose! She must have done it on purpose!"

  Nice swears and swears.

   The obese body slumped on the chair, with a dejected look on its face:

   "Nice, Nice, you said you did something wrong, why did you leave Beigang?"

   "This is great! Not only can't run away at all, but the old man is about to be picked out!"

"Hey... the great Miss Charlotte, when will you wake up, if you don't wake up... your territory will be taken up, and your poor contracted servant will also change from a fat cat to a dead cat. !"

  Nice was dejected and remorseful.

   And at this moment, a pleasant voice suddenly sounded from the bottom of its heart:

   "It makes sense, and I'm curious too. You were clearly asked to stay in Beigang honestly, but why did you go to Caiyin City, and even in the name of inspection under my name."

  Hearing this familiar voice, Nice's body was shocked, and his worry turned into joy in an instant:

   "Lord Charlotte! Oh no! Master! Are you... is your voice?"

   "You... woke up?!"
