"Are you studying these orc spells?"
Carlos suppressed his anger and asked in a slightly deeper voice.
Just like drug lords generally do not take drugs themselves, and casino owners generally do not participate in gambling, Carlos said that power is guiltless in front of others, but secretly he did not like Gul'dan's magical legacy.
So when I was kidding and prepared to sneak in secretly to surprise Ilucia, I accidentally bumped into my sister who was studying shadow magic.
Well, although I wasn’t happy, I was surprised.
"Carlos! I thought you wouldn't come over until tomorrow."
Ilucia actually showed a look of surprise, with a smile on her face.
"Didn't I tell you not to read these deceptive books? Why are you disobedient?"
Carlos is not the first brother who has never seen a woman smile at him, so he will not be fooled by Ilucia so easily.
"To confuse people? I don't think so. The so-called warlocks of the orcs are actually a very vague professional positioning, and warlocks are not simply shadow spell users. Analysis of their spell system actually includes shadow magic, soul contract theory, general Three aspects of spirituality. In addition to the fact that shadow power is relatively new to us mages, soul spells are actually also included in necromancy. If you don’t want me to study shadow magic, I won’t look at it, but the orcs are interested in soul contracts. The research is really good and interesting.”
Ilucia learned a lot about "Fa Ye's internal knowledge", but she didn't understand where Carlos's objections came from.
Power is indeed sinless; it is the one who uses it who is guilty.
But power has a tendency, and when you use power, you must pay a price.
Just like priests who use the Holy Light, they will unconsciously tend to be orderly. The stronger the power of the Holy Light, the stronger the discipline, and even the tendency of dogmatism.
Another example is mages who use magical power, especially human mages, especially mages with master titles and above. This external manifestation of being affected by the trend of power is even more obvious. People who are good at fire spells tend to be hot-tempered and have a clear distinction between love and hate. If they like you, they will be very upright and don't care about borrowing money. If they don't like you, they will just throw a fireball into their face. Most of those who are good at defensive spells will appear to be stubborn, such as Antonida. Si, even though the old man seems to be very kind and funny, he is actually a stubborn and tough old guy; and the same is true for Kel'Thuzad, who is good at water elements. If his parents hadn't given him a good skin, I'm afraid it would have spread to Dalaran long ago. There are rumors that the deputy speaker is a sissy.
So appearance is justice.
Ahem, I'm off topic.
Therefore, although the shadow spell itself is harmless, long-term use will eventually deepen the dark side of the heart. The study of spiritualism, especially the study of soul contracts, cannot avoid the subject of demon slavery.
Do you think you stole the devil's power, enslaved the devil's body, and trampled on the devil's will?
Little did he know that the final price he paid was to twist his will and use the stolen power to sacrifice himself to the driven demon.
Do not gaze into the abyss, for when you gaze into it, the abyss gazes into you.
That's the truth.
"Come, my sister, come to me."
Carlos' words were echoed by Ilucia.
Holding Ilucia's hand, Carlos led his sister to the full-length mirror in the corner of the room.
Feeling the warmth and weight of the hands on her shoulders, Ilucia unconsciously leaned forward and nestled against Carlos's chest, looking at her own appearance in the mirror, somewhat lost in thought.
"My sister, don't you think your complexion has a... dreamy glow?"
Carlos thought for a while, but couldn't think of a suitable word to describe this feeling, so he finally used the word "dream."
"Um?"
Ilucia wanted to turn her head to look at Carlos' face, but her brother's strong hands held her in his arms, preventing her from moving.
"Look, this is my face."
Carlos bent his knees and tried to squat down so that his face would appear in the mirror. As a result, her knee hit Ilucia's thigh, causing Ilucia's whole body to press against Carlos. To be specific, Carlos was riding a horse and Ilucia sat on Carlos' lap.
"How old are you? Why are you making such a fuss?"
Ilucia's whole face turned red, looking delicate and reserved.
It's a pity that Carlos didn't have any romantic thoughts when he saw this scene. Instead, he sighed in his heart.
"Be serious, I'm going to criticize and educate you!"
Carlos took one foot back, stabilized his body's center of gravity, and continued speaking while maintaining such a strenuous posture.
"Compare our faces. It's not about skin color or appearance. It's mainly about expression."
Completely nestled in her brother's arms, Ilucia looked at the faces of the two of them so close and entered a state of delusion. She didn't understand what Carlos wanted to say at all, so she was left in a daze.
It was quite tiring to maintain this posture. After waiting for more than a minute, Carlos felt that the muscles in his legs had become completely stiff and his whole body began to heat up. However, when he did not get an answer from Ilucia, he shook his sister's shoulders. .
"Um, what?"
Ilucia asked in return, making Carlos feel tired and unlovable for a moment.
"Look at your face, this... this feeling of ice and jade bones, this sense of illusion, this hazy illusion, as if the visibility of the whole person has been lowered."
Carlos knew what he was thinking, but he couldn't express it in words. He was so anxious that his back was sweating slightly. There is still a problem with the vocabulary of the human world of Azeroth.
Seeing the shy and confused look on Ilucia's face, Carlos knew that he had said it in vain.
I'm not complimenting you!
"Only a tortured soul manifests such symptoms physically."
Carlos finally chose to speak bluntly. He really didn't have time to take care of Ilucia's mood...because his legs were numb.
"The soul cannot be easily touched. Why has your Great Library of Dalaran sealed all the research books on necromancy? Because it is harmful to the body. I have seen this symptom. The whole person becomes ethereal and the body is transparent. Transformation, this is a symptom of tortured soul. My sister, you have damaged your soul intentionally or unintentionally, and you are exchanging your soul for power."
Ilucia's body became tense as she listened, and Carlos noticed it.
"I don't!"
“Knowledge is power, whether you do it intentionally or not, you actually do it.”
Carlos forcefully interrupted Ilucia's defense.
"I...I just want to help you. I hate this feeling of powerlessness. I want to help you. I want to stand by your side..."
Ilucia began to cry as she spoke.
As a talented mage, Ilucia knew that Carlos had not lied to her. When she began to face the changes in herself, she realized that her brother really cared about her when he said these words.
"Okay, okay, don't cry. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have let you have access to these documents and materials, and I shouldn't have let you participate in these dirty transactions. It's my fault. It's all my fault."
It's obviously for criticism and education, but why do you start to admit your mistakes when you see a few tears?
Carlos's balls hurt so much.
In the memory of the previous life, almost all sorceresses with some capital had this kind of alternative beauty. They called this phenomenon "the blooming of the soul."
The blooming of the gods cannot even maintain the stability of the body (matter). What is the use of this illusory and ethereal beauty!
That's why Carlos reacted so violently when he noticed this sign in Ilucia. (To be continued.)
