At night, the temperature in the forest dropped a lot.
The fireplace in the living room of the wooden house burned with firewood, dispelling the dampness and coldness of the night.
Sethia was nestled in Ronya's arms, reading the same book as her. There were other books on the coffee table, all related to magic.
Omuir sat next to Ronya, and Yunxiao and Salos also sat around the coffee table, practicing the spells that Ronya taught them.
As a purebred succubus, Salos is very talented and has strong magic power. He always learns quickly what Ronya teaches him.
But Yun Xiao is much worse. He is just an ordinary human being and has no talent for learning magic.
Learning magic talent is very important, and success cannot be achieved by hard work, but Ronya still taught him magic.
Ronya's teachings to the three children in the family are different. Salos is a monster and can only use dark magic, and the spells are all related to dark magic.
Yunxiao is a human being and can learn all types of spells, but he has no talent in magic and is slow to learn. Omuir gave him a sword and a shield and taught him how to practice swordsmanship. Ronya Teach him defensive magic so that he can one day become a paladin.
Paladins are respected among humans, and they can give Yunxiao a good future.
As for their beloved little daughter Secia, her excessive talent allows her to learn anything, and it is not difficult for Ronya and Omuir to teach her.
She can learn either holy magic or dark magic.
At this age, Sethia is playful and active, and she is always full of curiosity about the outside world.
Ronya and Omuir would never force her to learn. Although she was playful, she would study seriously when it was time to learn and would not let them worry about it.
Moreover, Ronya hopes that she can be happy now, without having to face any troubles, and can do whatever she wants.
They may not have much time together.
When Sesia was just born, Ronya went to see her teacher, an old fortune teller, who used his precognitive ability to see the future of Sesia...and Seiania.
They are twins of gods, but their futures are full of darkness and despair. They are covered with an illusion of light and lead the world into the abyss.
Ronya unconsciously put her hand on the left side of Sethia's abdomen, where she sealed something.
It is also the key to allowing Sethia's magic power to mutate into crimson magic power and gain access to dark magic power.
She wants to change Sethia's fate.
But more importantly, as a god, she wanted to protect the world and the sacrifices she made to protect people.
Changing the fate of Sethia is changing the fate of the world.
She placed the burden of the future on Sethia.
Ronya read the book with Sethia for a while, then handed Sethia and the book to Omuir, got up and took a pen and paper to write something about the creation and analysis of spells.
When she was just an ordinary witch, while learning spells and magic from her teacher, she began to study spells on her own. The book Sethia was looking at was written by her.
The place where they live now is the largest monster forest in the Eastern Continent. In addition to avoiding the pursuit of her by humans and gods, living here is also to better understand monsters and learn the magic of other races.
Sethia took the book and read it for a while, but she couldn't read it anymore. She usually didn't have the patience to read books, so she basically flipped through them hastily.
Omuir changed the book for her, "Yanyan, let's take a look at the new collection of magical creatures. Your mother has added some new creatures into it."
Sethia has always been interested in these magical creatures. Omuir held a book for her and she read it with relish.
Although she lives in the Monster Forest, the forest is vast and there are many creatures that she has never seen before, and her mother usually does not let her go into the depths of the forest alone.
There was a magic circle set up by her mother around the wooden house, and she could only play nearby.
"Night Clan? What kind of creature is this?"
Sethia flipped through the pages for a while, her eyes staying on the Night Clan’s
On the biological encyclopedia.
This book of new magical creatures was not created by her mother alone. There are many travelers, bards, scholars, etc. in Caron Continent who will study some strange creatures and compile them into the book.
The introduction page of this Night Clan shows their image, with a handsome human shape, black hair, black eyes, a black horn on the head, and black lines on the body.
The style of the painting was not made by my mother.
In the analysis below, a shining heart is also drawn.
The Night Tribe - living at the end of the eternal night in the Western Continent, between the living and the undead, can walk in both worlds of life and death, and their hearts can bring the dead back to life.
After reading the introduction of the Night Tribe, Sethia raised her head from the book and asked Omuir and Ronya: "Mom, Dad, have you seen the Night Tribe?"
Ronya said: "I met them once, but the Night Clan people don't interact with others, so it's a bit difficult to communicate with them."
Omuir continued what Ronya said: "Because the hearts of the Night Tribe can bring people back to life, there are many people who want to attack their hearts, so they rarely communicate with others."
Sethia asked curiously: "Are their hearts really that powerful? Can people who have been dead for a long time be resurrected?"
Ronya paused slightly while holding the pen, "As long as the soul is there, no matter how long they have been dead, they can be resurrected. However, people who have been dead for too long will lose their souls and may not be the same person anymore."
Sethia's concept of death is still somewhat vague. The death she understands is probably falling asleep and not being able to wake up or see it again.
But she knew that after death, people would become undead, and they could still be seen.
But as my mother said, the undead are different from when they were alive. The necromancer will summon the undead and control the undead to fight.
People who had different personalities, professions and lives during their lifetime will be no different when they become undead after death. They are all spirits with no self-thinking and only instinctive consciousness.
Sethia was just ignorant about this. She saw that some of her mother's magic books contained spells to summon the dead.
She doesn't know these spells yet, but she is very sensitive to spell seals and can basically figure out how to draw them after just a few glances. When her magic power becomes stronger, she will be able to use these spells.
The living room gradually became quiet, with only the sounds of books being turned and matches burning in the fireplace. The warm yellow light always made Sethia sleepy easily.
She yawned and looked at her two brothers who were still drawing the curse seals seriously. She got out of Omuir's arms and sat between them.
Then he lay on the table and watched the two of them draw.
Yunxiao was practicing defensive magic seals drawn on him by Ronya. As soon as he released a small defensive magic circle, it was pierced by Sethia.
"It's too crispy, brother."
Yunxiao scratched his head and drew it again, and then was poked by Sethia again.
The crimson magic power condensed at her fingertips, and it only took a light poke at his defensive magic circle to break it.
Although this is the simplest low-level defensive magic circle, because of his insufficient talent and magic power, the magic circle is as fragile as a layer of paper.
Yunxiao is not discouraged. He has always been gentle and patient. Sethia likes to cause trouble when he practices, and he never gets angry.
After Sethia destroyed his defensive magic circle a few more times, his magic circle finally became a little stronger. Sethia couldn't pierce it, but it was shattered with a slap from her.
Ronya looked over and said, "Sesia, don't disturb your brother's study. He doesn't learn as fast as you."
Although Yunxiao's talent is not very good, it is also a normal learning progress for ordinary people. Sethia is extremely talented, so naturally he will feel that he is a slow learner.
"Brother, stupid."
Sethia stopped making noise in Yunxiao and turned to Salos.
Salos was reading a magic book, writing and drawing on the paper from time to time. There was a curse seal floating in front of him, a curse seal that could maintain its form, indicating that the curse seal could form a magic circle and that the user was very skilled.
Sethia reached out and poked his curse mark, using crimson magic power to disperse his curse mark.
Salos ignored her and let her cause trouble. As soon as she dispelled his curse seal, he formed a new curse seal.
Scythia's crimson magic turned into an arrow. As long as Salos condensed into a curse seal, the arrow would pass through the center of the curse seal and dispel his curse seal.
Dark magic and crimson magic are intertwined, but the different magics are not aggressive with each other. The dark magic will be wrapped in the crimson magic, like a noisy child.
Sethia wanted to continue poking his curse seal with arrows condensed with crimson magic power. His curse seal immediately turned into a shield, which could not be broken no matter how much Sethia poked.
Seeing that the two brothers couldn't make trouble, Sethia suddenly lost interest and stopped making trouble with them. He yawned and lay on the table. His eyes fell on Salos's hand on the table in front of him. , fair. The blue blood vessels are like tree roots spreading on the ground. They look thin, but very powerful.
The orange light and shadow of the flame fell on his hand, adding a layer of warmth. In a daze, Sethia saw that his hand seemed to have become thicker. It was still the same hand as before, but larger, like an adult's hand.
Her eyes were fixed on the middle of his body, and she saw his long silver hair hanging behind him, already hanging on the carpet.
When did Salos' hair get so long?
She rubbed her eyes and poked Salos' hand.
Salos's hand returned to its original size, as if what she just saw was an illusion.
She raised her eyes and looked towards Salos, meeting his amber eyes.
She wanted to say something, but she was too sleepy at the moment, so she could only let the sleepiness invade her. She called out "brother" in a low voice, leaned against Salos, tilted her head and fell asleep on his lap.
Salos stopped turning the book and looked down at the little girl sleeping on his lap.
"I'll take her up to bed."
Yunxiao saw Sethia sleeping on Salos' lap and was afraid that he would be unhappy, so he reached out to hug Sethia.
Salos stretched out his hand to block his movement.
Yun Xiao looked at him with confusion. Salos paused and retracted his hand, "Let her sleep for a while, otherwise she will make trouble again if she wakes up."
Yunxiao smiled, "She likes it like this when she's sleepy, don't worry about it."
Ronya said that it was because Sethia was a mixed-blood succubus and her emotions were affected by the crimson magic, so her temper was sometimes bad. She was sleepy, hungry, or she had not done something well, or she was unhappy. If something happens, they will be much more anxious than ordinary people.
"I didn't care." Salos returned his gaze to the book.
The crimson arrow in front of him penetrated the black shield and dissipated.
