Chapter 142





This was a contract much more unreasonable than telling her to sell her body. Should she sign the contract, she would practically become Joshua’s pet pigeon for the rest of her life.


“That is the most basic requirement needed for me to trust you. Besides, I do not believe this price to be too costly either. After all, ‘Léon: The Demon’ is not the only movie in this world.”


What Joshua said was not too appealing to the dark elf. If she really wanted to watch movies, she could very well purchase a ticket to watch one.


The reason why she was stealing the originium crystal with ‘Léon: The Demon’ stored in it was purely so that she could bring it back to the demon realm. The main reason why she was hesitating was because... she might not be able to leave this cinema room alive should she refuse Joshua.


She felt a gloomy and cold aura when she touched the door knob earlier.


An undead, or multiple undeads, were guarding the other side of the door. The dark elf does not possess any magic that could banish undeads. On top of that, there were a dozen fully armed human knights outside too...


Should Joshua become serious, the possibility of her being able to exit the Farucci’s Mansion alive would be slim to none. As such, she had no power to choose.


After weighing her options, the dark elf ultimately nodded her head. Her only purpose in staying alive in this world was to take revenge at the Heresy Tribunal and... to repay her ‘Mathilda’ that saved her.


“A wise choice... then, let us shake hands for our phony friendship.”


Joshua extended his hand with the Duke of Bones’ imprint.


The dark elf hesitated momentarily. She wanted to place her other hand on her dagger.


But, she felt an ice-cold aura blowing past her neck. That aura forced her to relinquish her crafty tricks and hold Joshua’s hand.


Through her palm, ice-cold magic power invaded her body. She was able to resist the magic power from a certain Lich with her own magic power. But, for the sake of surviving, she choose to relax her body.


Soon, the Lich’s magic power filled the core of her soul. When she released her hand, she felt a wondrous sensation.


“What do I need to do for you?”


The dark elf moved her hands. The imprint on her palm had disappeared.


To test out whether the domain preventing magic usage was still present on her body or not, she changed her appearance multiple times before Joshua. Only then did she change her appearance back to her own appearance.


Even though the dark elf detested the Holy Church’s Heresy Tribunal, the abilities given to her by the Heresy Tribunal were the foundation of her skills as an assassin and information agent.


“First matter of concern, have you heard of the God of Order before?”


Joshua could actually be considered as the God of Order Lloyd’s number one missionary. Even the frost elf Tylene who had just joined his entertainment guild joined Lloyd’s church for the sake of ‘going online.’


“The God of Order, Lloyd. It is one of the most basic rune systems in this world. It is also my most familiar rune system.”


The dark elf wrote a few rune inscriptions in the air. With those runes, a tablecloth placed on the side started floating in midair.


Then, over a hundred runes from the Order System started floating around her. The amount of runes she knew was totally comparable to a sage from the Sage Tower!


This dark elf was actually a top scholar!


That said, as the elves possessed longer lives, it was destined that they would have more time to learn knowledge than humans. Unfortunately, their long lives also doomed them with a slow growth.


Their upper limits for magic made it so that even if they knew a lot of runes, they were incapable of activating magics capable of determining the outcome of a battle.


Joshua did not bother to ask this dark elf lady how old she was. To rashly ask a woman her age, especially someone whose age was in the triple digits, was an irrational behavior akin to courting death.


“Since you’re proficient in the runes of order, it’ll be simple then.”


The small amount of ordinary magic power flowed out from Joshua’s palm. A spinning cube appeared above his hand.


“This is... magic from the order system? Milord, please excuse my rudeness. I’ve already grasped all rank five magic and below from the order system. From rank six magic and above, they’ve become difficult and impractical for me to use.”


The dark elf believed the order system’s magic to be the most practical for assassination. Her abilities were all based on the magic ‘Mage Hand,’ one of the most basic magic. Using that basic magic, the dark elf was able to expand it to countless different applications.


Magic was not something that was better the more complicated it was. Instead, she believed practicality of magic to be much more important. As such, she was a combat mage like Ciri.


“Strictly speaking, this thing is not magic.”


Joshua tossed the white cube to the dark elf. The dark elf extended her hand to catch the cube. The cube bagan to spin on her hand nonstop.


“Not... magic?”


The dark elf looked at Joshua with a confused look. She saw Joshua making a motion of clenching one’s hand. Copying Joshua’s motion, the dark elf grabbed the cube.


The cube immediately shattered into countless rune inscriptions. Like a powerful current, the runes rushed into the dark elf’s body. She opened her eyes wide in shock. A pitch-black window was present before her eyes. Gradually, the window turned pure white.


A series of words, ‘Windows XP,’ appeared on the center of the white window.


She took a couple steps back to distance herself from that strange window. But, in a short few seconds, she realized that the window had appeared in her line of sight directly, that she was simply unable to escape from it.


“This is... an illusion magic?”


The only kind of magic the dark elf knew that could change what a person was seeing would be illusion magics. But, illusion magics do not belong to the order system. Instead, it belonged to a very rarely seen rune system.


“No. Strictly speaking, this is a new world.”


Joshua did not fully compile the Windows XP operating system. The order runes were different from computers’ diodes. The only reason why he named the operating system he made using the order runes as Windows Xp was all because of nostalgia.


“A new world?”


The dark elf was unable to comprehend what Joshua was saying. After all, to the people living in the 18th century during the magic industrial revolution, computers were a concept much ahead of their time.


“I believe that there should be an icon called ‘Mage Forum’ on your desktop. Use your hand to tap at it.”


Joshua used his hand to do a tapping motion.


Although the dark elf was shocked by what appeared before her eyes, her professional allowed her to quickly calm her mind. She ran her eyes across the ‘desktop’ mentioned by Joshua. There were three special icons. They’re respectively ‘My System,”Norland Radio Station’ and ‘Mage Forum.’
