Magic Chronicles : Fallen RaceChapter 75: Chapter 75: The Second Fate Track Unlocked!
“Teacher!”
” Teacher!!”
Vielsia could feel the very weak human breath in her arms, accompanied by severe magical exhaustion, as if it were a candle in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.
When she thought about what Reji had done earlier, the elf immediately understood the situation.
Magical Burnout
Professor Reji had overdrawn his body, not only burning his magic but also his life force to resolve the crisis!
Yes!
The Night Illumination Spell, although a spell of the Radiant Church, has a strong restraining power against demons, especially shadow demons who fear light. However, as a second-tier spell, it normally wouldn’t be able to dispel the territory of that terrifying shadow demon.
The only reason Professor Reji was able to do so was by sacrificing his life force to enhance the spell’s effect.
‘What to do?’
‘What should I do now!’
Vielsia, who had always followed the guidance and teachings of the elders for a hundred years, was used to being the “listener” of others. In just one night, she might have made more decisions than all the ones before combined.
In such a crisis, decisions are often not made by reason.
They are made by instinct.
By the most genuine voice in one’s heart.
And Vielsia’s heart was telling her…
‘He can’t die!’
‘I absolutely can’t let Teacher Reji die!’
Whether it was Professor Yeno’s ambush with the demonic lackeys or the truly summoned terrifying shadow demon that appeared to be an apostle, all of this should have been aimed at her.
Yet, in the end, she, the source of all this, remained unharmed, while Reji, who was dragged into this, lost his life?
‘I, Vielsia, am I supposed to watch others die in my place!?’
‘No!’
‘Absolutely not! Then I would be no different from those evil demons!’
‘But…’
‘Professor Reji’s life force was exhausted, and this wasn’t something that could be saved with a few healing spells. Even if it could, I am in no better shape, having been drained of my magic, unable to cast any spells.’
At this moment, the only way for her to save Reji, to save her teacher, was to do something she hesitated about.
But the hesitation in Vielsia’s eyes quickly disappeared.
‘Without Professor Reji, I would have died at the hands of that terrifying shadow demon’
‘So…’
‘Even if it meant giving up my most precious, once-in-a-lifetime treasure as the “Elf Princess” to teacher, I am willing.’
She believed that the elders would not blame her afterward.
With a resolute expression, Vielsia made up her mind.
She took a deep breath, quickly knelt down, and gently placed Reji’s head on her smooth, soft thighs.
Although Reji still had his eyes tightly closed.
His consciousness was very clear.
His current “life force exhaustion” was just a “Weakness Spell” he secretly cast on himself while the elf wasn’t paying attention. It seemed that Vielsia, in her anxious state, hadn’t noticed.
‘So… What would you do next?’
Reji was curious.
His original intention was to speed up the elf’s favorability, but the next scene that Vielsia performed was an action that Reji never expected.
Vielsia lowered her head towards Reji, brushing aside the hair falling by her ear. After taking a deep breath, she leaned in and kissed him.
The soft touch of the elf’s lips felt like cotton candy, and Vielsia’s inexperienced yet innocent actions were like the sweetness of cotton candy melting in one’s mouth.
Elven kisses are different from human ones.
Apart from expressing love, they also serve a ceremonial purpose.
The green forest barrier lit up beneath Vielsia once more, enveloping Reji within it this time.
Symbols of new life sprouted around them, vibrant butterflies fluttered on both sides, and vines wove an unbreakable bond between them, as the moonlight intertwined their fates together.
[Vielsia has activated the “Princess Bond” ceremony on you, and you have received the highest protection from the elven race]
[All your abnormal statuses have been forcibly removed.]
[Your HP and MP have been restored to their maximum limits.]
[You have unlocked the equippable sub-Fate TrackNature.] МѴᒪΞМⱣҮᎡ.ϹОϺ
[Under the “Princess Bond,” your “Nature” Fate Track will share the “Star Sculpting” effect with Vielsia. Currently, you have unlocked 3 Star Sculpts in the sub-fate track]
Reji: “…”
Various notifications from the panel frantically sounded in his mind, like a joyful symphony.
It felt as if he had just scored an A in a quest, and then Vielsia handed him the ultimate skill.
In the the game, although there was no “Princess Bond” skill, the fact that it could directly open up a second Fate Track for himspecifically the “Nature” Fate Trackand even synchronize the “Star Sculpting” effects, was undoubtedly conveying its absurdity to Reji.
Keep in mind that, as a player, it was as if he had cheats enabled. After clearing the game and defeating the Demon King, he still possessed the “Radiance,” “Judgment,” and “Defense” Fate Tracks.
Apart from the main Radiance Fate Track, which he had from the beginning, the remaining two Fate Tracks were unlocked only after Reji went through great lengthsfinding inheritance items, seeking mentors, and completing a series of complex and tedious Fate Track tasks.
In the game’s setting, Fate Tracks were different from professions. It wasn’t just about learning the knowledge; Fate Tracks represented a philosophy and belief that required both learning and practice.
For example, in the Judgment Fate Track’s tasks, he had to act as a law enforcer and apprehend a sufficient number of heinous criminals to gain the “Judgment” recognition.
Another example, in the “Defense” Fate Track’s tasks, he had to protect a sufficient number of civilians, play the role of a firefighter in various natural disasters, and so on.
And if he wanted to obtain the “Nature” Fate Track following this process, he would have to plant tens of thousands of trees and act as a forest ranger for several years, at the very least.
But now…
‘Dam’
‘It was… it was that simple?’
‘Well Not realy’
Reji knew that he thought it was simple because he wasn’t the one making the sacrifice. The Elf Princess, his female student Vielsia, was the one who had sacrificed everything.
The feeling was as if Vielsia, as the Elf Princess and the beloved daughter of the natural Fate Track, had brought him straight home, transforming raw rice into cooked rice. The natural Fate Track couldn’t refuse to accept him even if it wanted to.
What could be done when the daughter had brought the man home?
Accept him, of course.
That was the subtle feeling Reji sensed from the “Nature” Fate Track that had appeared in his spiritual world.
After the long kiss, seeing that Reji’s life force had finally returned to normal and was even more vibrant, Vielsia breathed a sigh of relief. A happy smile appeared on her pure, white elf face.
However, she found it a bit strange that her teacher should have woken up by now.
‘Never mind’
‘We should leave this place first and discuss it later.’
Afterward, Vielsia carried the still “unconscious” Reji and quickly retreated, heading towards her dormitory at the Royal Academy.
And Reji…
Before, he was pretending to have his eyes closed, but now he was hesitant to open them.
This hesitation was due to facing his own conscience.
Questioning his inner devil.
Then understanding his inner devil.
After resolving his “inner conflict,” he returned to his original intentions as a player.
So now, his main Fate Track was Demon King, and his sub-Fate Track was Nature?
The effects of Star Sculpt I and III in the Nature Fate Track were secondary. The effect of Star Sculpt II, which reduced the power of natural spells by 95%, was what caught Reji’s attention.
This concept was almost equivalent to him being immune to all natural spell attacks.
And the elf race was most proficient and powerful in natural spells.
Under the influence of this “Star Sculpt II,” as long as he faced the elf race or any natural attribute user, such as Druid races, he would basically be invincible.
This was the powerful privilege of Vielsia as the “Elven Princess.”
And then…
Vielsia, in order to “save” him, gave this precious privilege to him, the theoretical greatest enemy of the elvesthe Demon King.
‘Hahaha, this is outrageous!’
‘Too outrageous!’
Reji was referring to this absurd Fate Track combination.
