Chapter 145: The Anti-Magic Domain of the Pirate Ship
Kanor originally wanted to refuse, but because Doyle Candice keenly remembered that the little girl seemed very respectful towards Lolth, she quickly found Kanor’s weakness with her persuasive words.
This made Kanor hesitate and gave Doyle more room to convince her.
"Your Excellency Doyle, thank you for your kindness, but I have only been learning from my master for a short time…"
"It’s okay, I can wait for you to finish your training, and for now, it’s just a title."
"Your Excellency Doyle, my future dream is to become a free-spirited itinerant chef…"
"That’s fine, the position of head of the food department is just a title; you just need to provide a few recipes and give some advice to the chefs we hire when you have time—of course, you will also be paid for that!"
"Um… that doesn’t seem right."
"If you’re still unsure, you can be our food advisor—by the way, Lady Lolth just became our livelihood advisor for the Demon Army; in terms of being humble, you two really are quite alike!"
Doyle’s last sentence made Kanor waver even more.
The Little Devil said she is very similar to Master Lolth!
And it seems she is also Master Lolth’s friend… This comment really confused Kanor.
Eight-year-old Kanor had never seen such a clever little trickster, so she couldn’t help but fall for it.
"Alright, but… everything must wait until I have completed my training. And if it is a recipe created with Master Lolth’s guidance, you will need my master’s permission to have it! Plus, I need to go home and discuss it with my adoptive mother!"
Kanor said seriously.
Hearing this, Doyle was naturally very happy.
"No problem, Lady Kanor," Doyle said with a kind face, "I look forward to working together and learning from you!"
She smiled and shook Kanor’s hand.
When Doyle heard that this little girl was Princess Lolth’s "apprentice," she knew she had to establish a partnership with her no matter what.
Especially the kitchen knife she just used to debone the chicken… It was created from the magical power flowing directly from a living body.
As the leader of the Little Devil Guild, Doyle was well aware that half of the magical items in the Demon Army were traded through her hands… She knew for sure that it was an alchemical product from the ancient magical civilization of the last era.
Moreover, in terms of rating, it was at least a level nine alchemical magical creation, and it could even be of the level of a pseudo-Divine Artifact.
But no matter what, this certainly was not something the little girl possessed on her own; it had to be the work of Lady Lolth—this shows how much importance Lady Lolth placed on this little girl.
Regardless of her talent, just the fact that she was valued by Lolth was enough for Doyle to want to build a friendly relationship with her.
Moreover, how could the deeply calculating and clever Lady Lolth take on an ordinary student?
Looking at Maider and Tina, who were astonished by her interaction with Kanor, Doyle, in a good mood, decided to take advantage of the moment to boost Kanor’s favorability rating.
Not only for this little girl, but if she helped Lady Lolth, the latter would surely remember her kindness and appreciate her efforts!
"It seems you are facing some difficulties with your bridge construction, right?" When she had just arrived, she noticed the workers by the river gathered together, seemingly encountering some unknown obstacles. "I may not understand much about construction issues, but I think I might have something that could help you."
Doyle said this, and Maider hesitated for a moment but still told the truth.
"Well… when we are working, the magical materials can lose their power in certain places…"
He briefly explained the trouble he faced to Doyle.
After listening to Maider’s description, Doyle nodded gently.
"I see…"
While saying this, she reached into her Gothic-style waist bag and started searching.
"I think I really have something that can help you."
After searching for a while, like Doraemon, Doyle pulled out an old-looking item that resembled goggles.
"Magic—Power—Making—Glasses!"
Doyle said as she placed the glasses on her head, aimed them towards the river, and then pressed the button.
Everyone present felt a huge wave of magical energy erupting from the glasses, but there was no actual "power."
Invisible magic approached the river and soon formed images on Doyle’s "glass lenses," turning into different colored shapes, while still using an ancient language to label what those things might be.
Doyle looked at it and quietly nodded.
"Hmm… twenty-six magic circles… fourteen related to space, eight for warnings, and four for seals—this must be something Lady Lolth set up, right?"
She murmured, then continued her detection.
Since Lady Lolth set up magic circles here, it proves that there is indeed something strange going on.
After continuing her search, Doyle discovered the source of the matter.
She took off the glasses and looked at the group of Maider.
"At the bottom of the river, there is the wreck of a ship that is about twenty meters long, which has been sealed by Her Excellency Lolth, but that’s not really important… The reason the magical materials are failing and going out of control is that the ship’s keel is made of a very special ‘anti-magic’ material, and Her Excellency Lolth’s magic circle did not seal the area affected by this anti-magic."
After Doyle finished speaking, Maider nodded.
"Is it possible to use materials that can create an Anti-magic Domain… It sounds like a pirate ship. It’s said that the ships of great pirate crews often enter forbidden areas of the sea to prevent magical beasts from attacking, so the keels are made of special materials. To guard against sea monsters attacking from the depths, the Anti-magic Domain can be activated if necessary… However, it’s quite surprising that it ended up here."
After Maider spoke, he sighed.
"Thank you for the detection, Her Excellency Doyle, but we can’t handle this kind of material. Let’s report it to Master Lolth…"
Upon hearing Maider’s words, Tina continued to ask.
"You said the Anti-magic Domain was ‘opened,’ so… does that mean it can be closed?"
As she asked this, Maider nodded.
"Of course. Those pirates are also Superoperators. If they kept the Anti-magic Domain open, they wouldn’t be able to use their extraordinary powers. If it’s only effective under the ship, then large ocean monsters could attack from outside the domain."
Maider said this, looking at Tina who seemed to want to say something, and interrupted her.
"Don’t think you can turn it off yourself; only pirates know how to do that, and it’s powered by a special magical circle… So I’m saying, we can’t solve this problem!"
Meanwhile, Kanor, who was enjoying fried chicken, spoke up.
"I think I can find someone to give it a try…"
