Chapter 42 Bet

Corwin knows several kinds of divination magic, but the one with the most subtle effect is the kind of divination he learned at Hogwarts.

His strength is no longer what it used to be, and the study of magic also involves the essence, so Kewen is no longer limited to using tea for divination, and wine stains are the same for him.

Right now, Ke Wen is doing divination by observing the wine stains in the wine glass.

Soon, a picture appeared in his consciousness.

It was a bedroom, and the door had just opened, and a high school boy was entering the room.

At the same time, there were four nervous-looking girls in the room. They looked like they were about to be caught burglarizing a house.

Kewen's eyes instantly refocused.

He cast a spell on himself that reduced his presence, and then his shoulders shook slightly, causing his body to be quickly swallowed up by the mirror space.

Lucifer smiled cheerfully as he put down his glass.

He also lowered his sense of presence and instantly followed him into the mirror space.

The figures of the two people disappeared one after another in front of the bar.

In the mirror space, Kewen raised his hand to summon a portal, and he stepped directly through it.

Lucifer, who came one step behind, immediately followed.

The two came to the room where Ke Wen had divined.

Through the mirror space, Coven and Lucifer watched four girls rush into the bathroom in panic and jump from the second floor through the window.

Needless to say, it was obvious that something was wrong with the four girls who were still able to move around freely.

"Four little beans?"

Lucifer smiled in surprise at this time. He looked at the bathroom and smiled with great interest: "Even if they are all of witch blood, they can actually use the spell to stop the time of the whole world?"

"Obviously." Ke Wen said calmly: "They found the inheritance left by the old gods of ancient Greece."

Corwin has a reason for saying that.

Because the origin of witches is ancient Greek mythology,

In mythology, in addition to Chronos, the god of time, those whose abilities involve time include the three goddesses who weave fate.

And those who can leave behind the inheritance of time witchcraft are more likely to be the three goddesses of fate.

At this time, in order to maintain his false persona of the 'New God', Kewen seemed a little disdainful when talking about the old gods.

He said with an attitude of not succeeding enough but ruining everything: "Leaving some messy things in the world at will. Those old gods who live by eating away faith have no need to exist at all!"

"Hmph..."

Lucifer chuckled, but he did not want to get involved in the chain of contempt between the new gods and the old gods.

Because he was born in a place of faith, but he uses the power of rules, which is a combination of the two, so he does not favor either side.

Besides, Lucifer's interest at this time has been aroused by the four little girls, how can he have time to consider other things?

So after snorting, Lucifer immediately took steps to chase after him.

His excited voice came at the same time: "Don't take action, let me have some fun with them first, come with me, and let's see what other tricks they can do."

Ke Wen just glanced at it and said nothing.

In fact, he was also very interested in the four little girls. He was curious about how the four little witches, who had never experienced formal teaching at first sight, used the power to stop global time.

In addition, it is also related to the name he has used for many years.

Don’t forget, the word Corvin originally meant a coven of witches.

How could he, the queen of the witch coven, not be interested in the witch coven in this world?

Therefore, when Lucifer chased him out enthusiastically, Coven also took steps. He passed the high school boy who was motionless at the door of the bedroom and followed Lucifer.

On the street outside the villa, four little witches were shouting and screaming in the still time. They were jumping, screaming, cheering and venting excitedly, as if they were celebrating the success of some prank.

Corwin and Lucifer became spectators.

The two of them hid in the mirror space and followed the four little girls all the way back to the home of one of them.

There, the two finally found a book recording witchcraft.

In the mirror space, Lucifer reached out and pulled out the projection of the book from the bookshelf.

He flipped through the pages for a moment, and then handed the book to Ke Wen in a sudden and amused way.

"you guessed right."

Lucifer chuckled and said, "It is indeed a witchcraft inheritance left over from ancient Greece."

Hearing this, Kewen also looked through the books.

The content in the book is quite rich, including the layout of ritual circles, introduction to materials, and some witchcraft spells.

Ke Wen found the introduction and use of the witchcraft of 'Time Standstill' in the book.

The conditions for the ritual are not harsh, and the ritual circle can be carved using only some ordinary materials.

The process of casting the spell is as simple as a joke. It only requires four witches to recite the correct spell during the ceremony.

The only difficulty lies in the witch's bloodline.

If you want to successfully cast a spell and successfully borrow the power over time from the three goddesses of destiny, you must have four witches with the blood of earth, water, fire, and wind jointly cast the spell.

All four bloodlines are indispensable, and other bloodlines cannot be substituted.

Seeing this, Ke Wen couldn't help but look up at the four little witches who were discussing witchcraft.

He opened his Dharma Eyes, and sure enough he saw extraordinary auras on the heads of the four little witches.

The color auras of the four elements of earth, water, fire and wind were constantly radiating around the heads of the four little witches, and they did not know how to restrain them at all.

Withdrawing his gaze, Kewen raised the book projection in his hand and said, "What are you going to do?"

"What about you?" Lucifer asked.

"Destroy." Ke Wen looked at the little witches who were experimenting with the floating spell and said: "With unstable minds, if they continue to master this power, we don't know how much trouble they will cause."

"Ha ha……"

Lucifer teased: "Is it because they disturbed you? Others don't know that time has stopped."

"Aren't you?" Ke Wen glanced sideways at him: "Don't say you're not annoyed."

Lucifer shrugged and said nonchalantly: "In the worst case, I will set up a layer of isolation protection for the bar."

Coven didn't bother to pay attention to Lucifer, who deliberately contradicted him. He stepped forward and prepared to enter the real world.

Lucifer was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect that Ke Wen would do what he said.

He quickly raised his hand to block Ke Wen, and said with a smile: "Okay, eliminate their ability to control time, but wait first."

"What are you waiting for?" Coven asked: "Is there anything else about them that interests you?"

"How about we make a bet?"

Lucifer said enthusiastically: "Just judge by whether they will fall through their abilities."

Hearing this, Kewen couldn't help but shift his gaze to look at the little witches.

Lucifer immediately blocked Kewen's eyes with his palms horizontally.

He chuckled and said: "No observation is allowed, just give me the answer directly. For this, I can let you choose first."

Kewen thought for a while, then pushed Lucifer's arm away and said, "Then I choose not to fall. They should only do mischief and not use their abilities to do evil things."

"Are you sure?" Lucifer said coaxingly: "That's when time stopped. Look at their rooms. Their financial conditions are not very good. Are you sure they won't rely on their ability to control their finances?"

"Sure, sure." Ke Wen responded perfunctorily.

They are just four high school girls. Even if they are also witches, they will not have a criminal mind.

In this country, only the poor and black people are prone to mental changes and are prone to losing themselves after gaining abilities.

Those people are the breeding ground for crime.

That rarely happens to the middle bourgeoisie.

The middle class is not in danger of hardship.

They are the kind of people who have been completely deceived and brainwashed by the educational mechanism, so children from middle-class families are full of thoughts about enjoying the present and risking their lives to take risks.

People in this class only care about partying and having fun every day.

They rarely have criminal thoughts, but the glory of humanity is more likely to appear in them.

The higher-level capitalist class gradually loses its humanity.

They still maintain a greedy mentality while enjoying themselves. In order to pursue more money and enjoyment, they are more likely to take the initiative to engage in criminal activities, but most of them can exercise some restraint.

Finally, there is the top class.

The thoughts of that group of people have been sublimated, and power and desire for control have become the mainstream among them.

Their actions and conspiracies are no longer limited to individuals, and they rarely engage in evil deeds.

But once they plan to do evil, the consequences will be even wider.

Based on these judgments, Kewen chose to bet that these four little witches would not fall.

Because judging from their dress and conversation, they are all children from middle-class families.

Pranks and enjoyment should be the highest limits of their wanton behavior. I am afraid they will not even take the initiative to hurt others.

So after Ke Wen gave his judgment, he continued: "Then what? How to judge winning or losing? I don't have time to follow them all the time."

"Don't worry."

Lucifer smiled and raised his hand, pointing at the little girl with short male hair among the four witches.

"Didn't you notice?"

Lucifer said: "This little girl's fate has fluctuated, and her life should soon change."

Ke Wen looked at the little girl, nodded briefly and said, "But that will take a week, so..."

Raising his hand, Kewen used magic power to condense a reconnaissance eye.

He raised his hand to make the magic eyeball rise into the sky, and then said: "Use it to track and record them. Let's take a look again in a week."

"no problem."

Lucifer smiled and nodded: "Originally, I planned to send a little ghost over to watch."

"That's it."

Ke Wen shook his head, and then raised his hand to open the portal leading to the bedroom.

Seeing this, Lucifer playfully waved his hand to Ke Wen as a goodbye gesture: "Then I'll see you next week. Oh, by the way, the loser will go naked in the church."

"You lose."

Kewen raised his middle finger back without looking back...
