The Evil God Summoned by the Saintess
Chapter 295 - 293: Time to Summon the Evil God
"What I’m going to teach you is a team combination skill called [Judgment Battle Technique]."
In the magic training field, Blake looked at the Holy Maiden Squad lined up and spoke with a serious tone.
"[Judgment Battle Technique] has many variations. I’ve modified it according to your respective elemental affinities. Due to Benovia’s special attributes, she can learn the core spell of the Judgment Battle Technique—Radiant Moonlight, which is the key to victory."
As Blake spoke, he projected the Radiant Moonlight.
The image showed a woman standing in the moonlight, which illuminated everything around.
"This moon is not the real moon; it’s a spell effect. This is a spell that can grow with the caster’s power, a characteristic of moonlight element spells. Moonlight element spells derive from the Moon God. Unfortunately, mages with an affinity for the moonlight element are extremely rare; in this era, there’s only one."
"The effect of [Radiant Moonlight] is to provide a spell power boost for the entire team, adding a moon candle effect to allies’ spells and continuously using moonlight to attack all illuminated enemies."
While speaking, Blake handed a book to Benovia: "This is the book of Radiant Moonlight. Remember to study it when you return."
Benovia took it and asked, "Can I let the magic puppet learn it?"
Blake shook his head, "So far, I’ve never seen a Heart of the Magic Puppet of the moonlight element. A magic puppet heart without a moonlight attribute performs moonlight spells worse than opposed attributes, so it’s not recommended."
"Alright."
"Next is Doris; you need to learn the fire sword skill [Flame Ascension], Encore [Water Mist Perception], Phil [Holy Link], and Hilia [Ice Burst]. These are part of the [Judgment Battle Technique] combination skill.
"However, besides the core Radiant Moonlight, you can make adjustments in subsequent training for Judgment Battle Technique. For example, if the enemy’s attack is too fierce, you can design a defensive counterattack combination skill, such as a battle technique combination with Shield of the Earth as the secondary core..."
Hilia listened carefully, noting down the [Ice Burst] she was to learn, as well as the combination skill spells Blake suggested, preparing to study them later or have the magic puppet learn them.
Rose also listened, but after hearing the various changes of the Judgment Battle Technique, he shook his head, "This so-called combination skill is merely superficial cooperation; it cannot be called a fusion skill. It’s okay to call it battle technique, but to call it a combination skill is too much."
Hilia thought to herself, "Can a combination skill with multiple spell fusions be constructed by multiple people? Previously, when cooperating with Elina, her spells merely flowed into the gaps I purposely left... Does this count as fusion?"
"It’s slightly more advanced than mutual cooperation, but not true fusion. True fusion is when two spells can interact with each other, or directly construct a whole new spell, creating an effect greater than the sum of its parts, that is called a combination skill."
Hilia blinked and pondered her own ice magic combination skill... Can multiple people’s spells truly fuse?
Even for spells cast by a single person, each spell exists independently. For a mage to fuse them requires great effort, and even after fusion, they can almost be called independent spells.
Can a multi-person combination skill achieve this?
Hilia could only think of one possibility, using an array.
Perhaps the competition doesn’t restrict array placement, but opponents certainly won’t let you set one up.
"Of course, it can be done. The two combination skills I mentioned to you, [Super Mighty I Love You] and [Super Mighty Idiot], are those kinds of combination skills."
Hilia couldn’t help but feel a sense of curiosity.
She had never seen team combination skills that could allow for the fusion of spells.
Generally speaking, as long as the team is well-coordinated, everyone’s spells can complement each other, turning the team into a cohesive unit that advances and retreats at will, which is the most perfect.
However, the combination skills Rose spoke of, perhaps better called fusion skills, Hilia didn’t know how effective they were. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
"More powerful than the combined might of five people casting spells simultaneously," Rose said. "Of course, fusion isn’t so easy. You need someone who can use [Elemental Harmony], a special divine magic."
"Elemental Harmony?" Hilia was slightly taken aback, "I don’t think I’ve heard of that spell..."
Among all magic systems, the divine magic system is considered the most complete retained by the Holy Court. Being the center of faith for the gods, the divine system, predominantly composed of support spells, has always represented justice and light.
"That’s because I developed this spell," Rose said.
To be precise, like the Mage’s Hand, it’s a spell known only to players.
The purpose of this spell is to harmonize all magical elements, allowing spells to be used in fusion without causing a repulsion reaction—spells, once released, don’t discriminate friend from foe; when correspondent spells come close, regardless of whether the mages are friends or foes, they react, potentially harming allies or even oneself.
"Rose, are you going to teach me this spell?" Hilia asked eagerly.
For other spells, Hilia worried about not learning well, but she was not worried about divine or ice magic—the ice element was her inherent attribute, and the divine system was a blessing from the Holy Court.
"Yes, you can learn it, but there’s an even more suitable candidate."
"Who?"
"Phil."
"Phil?"
"Phil is a pure divine mage, making her use of Elemental Harmony more effective than yours."
"Alright... So if she uses Elemental Harmony, for that combination skill, who’s going to use the light spell [Holy Enhancement]?"
"Still her, she can use two support spells simultaneously."
"But she has a lot of spells to learn..."
"Don’t worry," Rose said with a slight smile.
There was one thing he hadn’t mentioned, that he would help Phil quickly master all the spells she needed to learn.
Being purely of the light spell system, Phil learned and grasped spell basics and proficiency much faster than others.
As a pure support, she didn’t need to consider learning spells from other systems to complement her own.
"First, memorize all these spells, then find an opportunity to inform the others. After learning, you should practice in a closed-off place, preferably where no one else can see, to prevent others from knowing your trump cards."
"Alright." Hilia nodded.
Currently, it was instructional practice; Rose hadn’t passed the related spells to Hilia but had, after Blake issued [Ice Burst] to Hilia, implanted the spell directly into her mind, letting her skip the memorization process.
Hilia ignored the book, closed her eyes, and began organizing and attempting to use it.
The young girl couldn’t help but remark, "This method is incredibly convenient. If only others could learn spells this way quickly as well."
Rose glanced at Benovia, who was diligently memorizing.
Others would have to wait a while.
But perhaps Benovia could use it too.
Tier Three.
Time to summon the Evil God.
