Chapter 103: Healing Hands

After the disappearance, looking at the half-melted black scroll in her hand, recalling the feeling of almost losing control of the magic earlier, Lolth confirmed two things.

The first piece of news was good – that this "stable" state could indeed be broken, as long as there was enough powerful magic to easily destroy its structure, without the need for the high temperature and burning characteristics of fire element magic.

The second piece of news was not as optimistic.

That is, the magic required to destroy the stable structure of this special substance could easily destroy something else as well…

Trying this way to help these half-dragon people with their injuries is not a good idea.

Destroying this stable state will also release a certain amount of magic, making the situation even worse.

Lolth has to change her approach.

She needs to figure out how to decrease the amount of magic while reducing or slowing down the magic released by this reaction.

To meet this need, Lolth closed her eyes and began to create a spell.

"First, we need to reduce the amount of magic… Since this unknown magic is in a stable state, we can break it apart by using magic that combines with it in reverse…"

"This feeling can be achieved by detecting the magical properties in each dragon’s body, always finding spells that can quickly reflect magic properties that are unstable in them… Yes, the Dragon race itself needs spells."

"The spells of the Abyssal Dragon clan… Well, the most basic one is their breath," Lolth stood up and walked towards the two Dragon race members who were able to stand before but now lay down, "Come on, breathe on me—if you still can."

Saying this, one of the demon dragons made an effort to breathe out a bit of magical breath. After Lolth captured this magic, she began to study it.

Soon, Lolth discovered a spell that could fully react to the magic of the demon dragon clan – by mimicking the first half of the innate ability to breathe, harnessing the magic, adding a touch of the demon dragon clan’s essence, easily destabilizing the magic.

Lolth tested it on a demon dragon’s arm and found that it seemed to be indeed feasible.

By using a tiny amount of the magical power, the magic contained in the "corroded" part of the demon dragon’s hand loosened.

Although only half of the demon dragon’s own magic was loosened, as long as half of a stable state became active, the entire structure was not far from collapsing.

Lolth nodded in realization.

"At the moment when it loosens, if a slightly more active spell and magic are used in the opposite direction for an ‘enticing’ operation, it seems that they can be separated."

"However, the magic output needs to be more stable, ensuring that the released magic and the required magic for enticement are not easily out of control."

Lolth thought this way, constructing a brand new magical formula.

After constantly simulating, overturning, simulating again, and overturning again in her mind, Lolth finally obtained the latest version of a completely new spell.

"Hmm, it’s probably of the Arcane type… Let’s call it ‘C0067’ for now."

After giving a random name to her newly created spell, Lolth looked at the messy demon dragon on the floor and coughed lightly.

"Everyone, I just luckily created a spell that might help you, but since it’s newly designed, I’m not sure of its effects or safety. Who would like to try it first… Oh, so eager, are we?"

Before Lolth could finish her question, a bunch of hands were raised on the ground.

Almost everyone except those with both arms covered in black substance raised their hands.

"We believe in Master Lolth!"

"Go ahead and practice on us, Master Lolthlinda. We all trust you!"

"That’s right, even if things get worse, we won’t complain!"

"What are you saying – do you doubt Master Lolth’s abilities?"

On the ground, brave voices rose one after another, even starting to sound a bit noisy.

Lolth’s good reputation among the Demon Army’s lower ranks made Isabella and Ann slightly moved.

Especially Isabella, she was already aware that the demon race also had their own emotions, and in some ways, the lower-ranking demon soldiers were not much different from human lower-ranking soldiers.

And no matter which country or army’s senior officers were beloved and trusted by the lower-ranking fighters, they must be truly good leaders.

It was somewhat strange that this situation occurred with an interrogator.

Lolth felt a bit embarrassed and rubbed her hands awkwardly, then randomly picked a demon dragon and said,

"Alright, let’s start with you… And now, stay relaxed."

Saying this, Lolth released a spell towards the dark back of the demon dragon.

The combined magic used couldn’t be activated by the demon dragon itself.

However, for Lolth, if she released the "movement" spell directly inside the black substance, it would easily disrupt the stable structure.

The part of the black substance affected by the spell did become active again, just as Lolth had expected.

Soon, the unknown black magic that hadn’t combined with the demon dragon’s magic felt a more active force in a similar location.

Some of the unknown magic immediately redirected towards the part of magic released by Lolth’s spell, replaying a scene similar to the chasing and consumption of black magic at Peace Alley intersection.

After this portion of magic was reactivated and consumed, Lolth’s spell slowly progressed to a new area.

Quickly, with continuous progression, all the unknown magic eroding the demon dragon’s body was "removed"!

He felt the magic in his empty back returning, although some was lost, most of it was restored!

"I… am healed!"

The demon dragon stood up in disbelief, felt his back, jumped in place, threw two punches with breaking sound, then excitedly roared.

"I’m healed! Thank you, Master Lolth!"

Lolth just shrugged indifferently.

"Quiet down, I still need to help others with their illnesses."

Seeing her plan working, Lolth naturally felt happy.

Moreover…

After eliminating the harmful effects of this magic, Lolth also started to pay attention to its convenient features.

However, everything had to wait until all the demon dragons were healed and the whereabouts of the cultists were discovered before proceeding!
