Rebirth Of The Noble Mage Behind The Scenes

March 2, evening.

Tomorrow is the third day of First Bud, which is also the traditional First Bud Festival in Gloria.

In the ancient folk calendar of the empire, this is the first day of spring, a festival that symbolizes the recovery of all things and the beginning of the new year's cultivation.

On this day, people will get up early in the morning to collect the fresh and tender Mangul willow branches that are the first to show their greenness and dew, and weave them into a vibrant crown.

Then, people will wear these crowns and dance around the fire to celebrate the sun warming the earth again and pray for good weather and good harvests for the next half year.

It was also on this day that the triennial Pamir Academy Grand Competition officially began.

This is an important night, and most of the students are preparing silently, hoping to get a good ranking in the big competition, and use this to attract the attention of the empire's high-level and top powerhouses.

And Anvis was playing secret spell cards with Fiona who came to him to play.

In the living room of the residence, the girl smiled and held a handful of cards, curled up softly on the sofa.

The seductive legs wrapped in white lace stockings are slanted and close together, and the crystal and lovely toes are moving restlessly, as if the victory is already in hand.

The little flying dragon Fia was shrunk down by the secret technique to only a little bigger than Kate. At this time, she was obediently lying beside the girl, immersing herself in the world of "Fiona's Adventures in Wonderland" with Kate.

In fact, Anweis was very skeptical about what Fiona could learn in the Summoning Academy.

After half a year of study, the girl's magic level has basically not improved much, but under the influence of her classmates and noble ladies, her skills in playing arcane cards have improved a lot.

Already able to open 50-50 with Anvis.

However, because the things recorded on the secret cards of this world are all real.

The process of playing cards is also a process of becoming familiar with and understanding the characteristics and weaknesses of various powerful beings, especially Fiona is still a Summoner, so she needs to understand this knowledge, so it is hard for Anvis to say anything.

"Activate the secret technique card [Lost Altar], sacrifice a specific combination of sacrifices [Alchemy Warrior], [Giant Armor], [Heart of the Furnace], and special summon [Ancient Secret Weapon - Furnace Titan]!"

At this time, Fiona, who had learned how to play the new card group, hurried to find Anweis, planning to take advantage of Anweis' unfamiliarity with the card effects, and cruelly abuse them.

a flash of light,

Covered in bronze and with red eyes, the terrifying phantom of the mechanical titan brought three alchemy soldiers who were less than one-third of its height, and suddenly fell on the chessboard, stirring up an illusory cloud of smoke.

The blazing furnace light lit up on its chest, and the icy mechanical arm swung abruptly.

In contrast, all the spell cards on Fiona's field and the three cards in Anvis's hand suddenly turned to ashes.

"not bad!"

Anweis looked at Fiona's terrifying mechanical titan with a sense of oppression on the field with some surprise.

That is the latest collector's gold card released by the Golden Dragon Chamber of Commerce. It has ten lives and nine attacks. It can destroy three cards in the opponent's hand each round, and all spell cards on the field will be cleared in the round of summoning.

The Forge Titan was originally unearthed in a ruined ruin in Morbisar, and later proved to be the supreme secret weapon of an ancient lost civilization.

Not all ancient civilizations are powerful. On the contrary, the vast majority of lost ancient civilizations do not even have ninth-level combat power, and the number of civilization individuals is only tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands.

That civilization seems to have a crazy worship of Titans, gathered the strength of the whole family, built a huge mechanical Titan, and installed a mysterious magic power source called [Furnace Core] on it.

Then, due to unknown reasons, the mechanical titan ran away out of control, directly destroying the capital of that civilization, and finally stopped operating due to exhaustion of energy.

The mage who excavated the ruins obtained the core technology of the furnace from the wreckage, and sold the wreckage to the Aslaide family at a high price.

At this moment, the girl looked at Anweisi triumphantly, as if she had seen the picture of Anweisi shaking his head helplessly, smiling wryly and admitting defeat.

On Anvis's field, there was only one secret cult night watchman with two lives and three attacks, and two covered secret cards, and there was only one card left in his hand.

The furnace titan's attack was as high as nine, plus three alchemy soldiers with four lives and three attacks, she couldn't figure out how Anvis could survive the next round.

And the two have already made an appointment before, whoever loses will have to agree to a request that is not excessive——

Hee hee, when the time comes, what request should the smart and lovely Miss Fiona make?

Do you want my brother to tell a new story, or let him call me sister when no one is there?

Heck, it would be nice to ask for a few more.

With a cute pouted pink mouth, the girl has already begun to puff her fair fingers.

Looking at the girl who was already imagining what to do after winning, Anweis suddenly smiled, and dropped the only card in his hand.

"Activate the secret technique card [Forbidden Ritual], exchange life and mana. Then activate the spell card [Time Still]."

As the card effect took effect, Anweis' two points of mana and seventeen points of life were exchanged immediately, and the blue light of the life spar dropped to a precarious state.

Then, an hourglass phantom flashed, and the twelve points of mana disappeared instantly.

The projections of the three alchemy soldiers on the field suddenly turned into a mass of pitch black, unable to attack for one round, nor could they be selected as targets by any card effects.

The Furnace Titan's projection only flickered for a moment, then stabilized again. Since the life on the card reached ten, the magic effect was directly exempted.

"Activate the secret technique card [Blood Sacrifice], sacrifice [Secretist Night Watchman]. Special summon [Mind Control Priest]."

From the deck of cards, a card lighted up slightly, and a phantom wearing a dark red hooded robe appeared in the Anvis field.

Seeing this summoned creature, the girl's expression froze for a moment, and an extremely bad guess flashed across her mind like lightning.

Mind Control Priest Effect: When the number of summoned objects on the enemy's field is greater than or equal to four, randomly obtain the control of one of them.

"The summoning item is good, how about lending me to play? The old gods will thank you—"

With a fake smile that could no longer be fake, Anweis activated the effect of mind-controlling the priest.

Since the three alchemy soldiers could not be selected, there was only one optional target left on the field.

"Whoa...the Furnace Titan!"

A ray of light flashed, and the terrifying phantom of the titan on the girl's field instantly shifted to Anvis's field.

There is nothing to say about the next plot. The girl wanted to forcibly resist the attack and kill Anweisi's last bit of blood. But it failed, and Anweis stole a card again.

In the end, the girl's dying struggle was declared a failure, her health was completely reduced to zero, and her mentality exploded at the same time.

"Okay, don't be angry, in fact, you played a good round."

After tidying up the game, Anweis comforted him very perfunctorily.

"Woo--"

Hearing this insincere comfort, the girl's tender cheeks swelled into buns, her light golden hair began to glisten, and her big lake blue eyes stared fiercely at Anweis, as if she wanted to bite him to death.

So, Anweis skillfully took out a shimmering crystal ball and placed it beside him.

The upgraded version of the resentment crystal ball has six times the absorption speed and capacity of the old version!

After seeing this crystal ball, Fiona's resentment became stronger again, so the crystal ball became brighter, almost as bright as her hair——
