Chapter 217: Freedom and Balance in the Magical World
Nirvana, a super-transformation magic, has the ability to transform light and darkness. Specifically, good people will become evil, and evil people will become good.
Kira knew all this information, so he decided to ask some questions he didn't know: "Why do they know the existence of 'Nirvana'? And how did they find its location?"
Hearing Kira's question, Gulan explained without any burden: "Their leader, Brian, was once the leading magic scholar on the continent. He once attacked the Council branch and knew about the existence of 'Nirvana'."
"I see!"
The Council has been established for a long time and has many powerful weapons in its hands, including the "Magical Elf Power" that can destroy a country and the "Face" that can make magic disappear. "Nirvana" should be one of them.
Gulan continued in a deep voice, "Originally, the regular guilds had already formed an alliance army, and the 'Snake Princess's Scale' even sent out Jura, one of the 'Holy Ten', for this purpose. I also sent a forced restraint team to provide assistance, but the intelligence I received today is not good!"
Kira looked at him curiously and asked, "What information?"
Gulan looked serious, his old eyes staring straight at Kira, and said sternly: "Jellal! He is also among the 'Six Demon Generals'."
Kira raised his eyebrows, "Jellal?"
No wonder I was called here!
"Yes, this is the information obtained by the undercover sent by the Council. He is not dead yet, and has even teamed up with the 'Six Demons'! He once sneaked into the Council and even became a member of the Council, so he knows the specific location of 'Nirvana'. As long as Jellal is there, the 'Six Demon Generals' will be able to find 'Nirvana'!"
Is this true? Could it be that this guy has lost his memory?
After thinking for a while, Kira asked, "So, what does Speaker Gulan mean?"
"Jellal is very powerful. Jura alone may not be able to deal with him and the 'Six Demons' at the same time, so I hope you can go and solve this problem!" Gulan said calmly, "You have fought with him and defeated him. I am very confident in your strength!"
"Don't worry, I can get the restraining team to cooperate with you to capture Gerard!"
Gulan's words were very scheming. He wanted the restraint team to cooperate instead of just obeying orders. This was only based on the goal of "capturing Jellal". He just wanted to trick Kira into being his thug, but how could this language trap fool Kira?
"It's not a question of strength. Even if reinforcements are needed, shouldn't the people from the Council go?"
"In fact, the Freshman Council was just established not long ago, and there is not enough manpower!"
Kira complained speechlessly: "I say, you old man really speak out everything without any hesitation..."
Gulan snorted coldly: "I have always acted in an upright manner!"
"If you're so powerful, why don't you do it yourself?" Kira couldn't help but mutter in a low voice.
"Hmm? What did you say?"
"Nothing!" Kira looked at the bandages on Gulan's body and understood Gulan's thoughts: even he, the Speaker who debuted with restraint magic, couldn't beat Zankro, one of the Seven Followers. How many of the 'Six Demons' could the rest of them beat together?
Thinking of this, Kira pointed at Haiberion beside him and said to Gulan: "Jellal is the 'Holy Ten', and I am not! Why don't you look for me when there is a ready-made 'Holy Ten' here?"
Gulan understood what Kira meant, that he was complaining about not including him in the list of the 'Holy Ten' in the past few years, so he encouraged him, "If you are willing, after you catch Gerald this time, the Council can grant you the title of 'Holy Ten'!"
Unfortunately, Kira didn't buy it. He took a sip of the tea in his hand and said, "Tsk! You give me something that others don't want?"
Gulan: “…”
Haiberian lowered his head to drink milk, laughing in his heart: "As expected of a guild that is the most troublesome, it seems that Mr. Kira still has the style of Mr. Marklov! I was careless a few days ago."
Seeing Kira being unmoved, Gulan thought about it and finally chose to tell him the true function of "Nirvana": when the magic is activated, people whose emotions reach extremes will have their "justice" and "evil" in their hearts changed.
Gulan's bandaged right hand exerted force unconsciously, and he said in a deep voice: "...It will make people of light fall into darkness! That is a magic so powerful that it needs to be sealed. In terms of severity, it is almost comparable to the power of the magic elves!"
"Since it can make people of light fall into darkness, it can naturally make people of darkness return to light." Kira was prepared for Gulan's words, "The more powerful the magic, the greater the side effects! You all know this principle, right?"
The three of them were silent.
Kira took the opportunity to promote the ideas he copied from other worlds: "According to my observation, in the magic world, good and evil are always in a state of balance. The more people yearn for light, the more people pursue darkness; similarly, the more powerful the evil person is, the more kind people will come out to balance him."
"Interesting point of view!" Haiberian exclaimed.
Conas' eyes sparkled as she agreed, "That's true, but what does it have to do with this 'Nirvana' crisis?"
Kira's sky-blue eyes flashed, and he said, "If this hypothesis is true, then each transformation of 'Nirvana' exists in pairs! In other words, once it causes a righteous person to fall into darkness, it will naturally lead another evil person to light !"
Conas lowered her brows and thought for a moment, then looked at Kira and said, "What if the difference in strength between the two transformed beings is too great? You know, 'Nirvana' can affect a wizard's character, but it cannot affect the wizard's strength! If the one who falls into darkness is strong, and the one who returns to light is weak, then..."
Kira knew what she was thinking, so he took over and said, "That situation means that the 'darkness' of the magic world has the upper hand, and then there will naturally be a strong person representing 'light' to solve this problem!"
Gulan stroked his graying beard and frowned, saying, "Even if your theory is true, it can only be manifested when the number of people is large enough and the time is long enough. But the number of people in the expedition team formed by the regular guilds this time is not large. Once someone is converted, the alliance will easily fall apart."
Kira acknowledged Gulan's statement and said, "You are right..."
Then he continued to drink tea with his head down.
Gulan asked tentatively: "So, you agreed?"
"Promise? Promise what?" Kira looked up blankly and said, "Weren't we just discussing magic?"
"Puchi!" Conas spat out a mouthful of tea.
"Not good! Image..."
Conas was quick-witted and activated the "aging magic" in the blink of an eye. The magic instantly aged and evaporated the liquid in the air. When the three looked over, she had already regained her original elegant demeanor.
"What's wrong?"
Conas pretended to know nothing, and met the gazes of the three people with confused but determined eyes, as if the voice just now was not made by her.
Kira was instantly impressed: "Wow, you can act better than me!"
The brief interruption did not affect Gulan's attitude. He was so angry that he almost wanted to say something like "Forget about going", but he swallowed it back in the end.
Seeing that Gulan's beard was fluttering with anger, Kira was really afraid that he would die from high blood pressure, so he immediately chose to disperse his firepower: "I still have to teach ! Dean Conas will definitely not be willing to let me leave, right?"
However, Conas's answer caught Kira off guard: "It's actually okay."
Kira: ? ?
Conas blinked her beautiful eyes and said with a smile, "Little Kira's classes for this week have ended. Seven days is enough time to resolve this matter, right? If you leave now, you can definitely make it back for class. If you really can't make it back, you can postpone it. I think as long as I explain the whole story clearly, those lovely students will understand!"
You are already an old lady, why are you pretending to be young?
"Hey, hey... I've contributed to the academy after all. Is it really okay to exploit my labor like this?"
Conas smiled again, and then became a little more serious. She asked softly, "Aren't you worried about the safety of your companions?"
Kira gave her a 'hehe' expression: "I believe in the power of my companions!"
"Anyway, I will never agree to capture the Six Demon Generals and Jellal!!!"
