One True God

Chapter 157: Madman

Lucifer activated his Demon Eye discreetly so that he could take a look at the magic circle that the brain activated in order to use the illusion horses once more.

This is to make sure that he would be able to know what is going on with the illusion horses, and how it works.

There are many reasons why Lucifer is even doing something like this, but the main reason is that he is just curious.

Anyway, Lucifer looked at the very complex structure of the magic circle that the brain activated with his Demon Eye.

Of course, since the Demon Eye was activated, Lucifer's brain capability was increased to the maximum and his perception of time also decreased.

This is to make sure that he would be able to analyze the magic circle with an optimized brain while having a lot of time in his hands.

Well, it wasn't really a lot of time since Lucifer can just think between nanoseconds.

To Lucifer, it was a lot of time. However, in reality... it was not.

After a couple of seconds passed, the brain was finally able to start using the magic circle to activate the illusion magic.

And because of this, the magic circle that he was using...disappeared all of a sudden.

And as soon as the magic circle disappeared, the neighing of horses was heard outside of the carriage.

This meant that the magic has been successfully pulled off by the brain.

Well, the magic circle has now disappeared, and the horses have appeared in its place.

All the signs that say the magic has been done are present, and even Lucifer knows that, which is why...he deactivated the Demon Eyes and closed it.

Right, Lucifer has closed the Demon Eyes after using it for a couple of seconds.

Even though it was only a couple of seconds, it definitely did not feel like that for Lucifer who was able to experience time much slower than anyone else.

And because of the...'extra' time that Lucifer had, he...was able to successfully analyze the magic circle.

He was able to find out how the magic circle and the illusion works.

And this is all thanks to the effects of his Demon Eyes. His Demon Eyes were truly overpowered to be able to make Lucifer decipher something so complex within seconds.

Even though Lucifer is already a master of his craft, that does not really mean shit when it comes to things that Lucifer does not know specifically.

Of course, Lucifer might have general knowledge about illusion and stuff like that, but he would not be able to analyze things as if he knows it like the back of his hand.

Just like how Lucifer is able to destroy a part of the world, he does not...know how to create or grow that part of the world back.

Just like how Lucifer is able to kill anyone else, he cannot revive them...as if they have never died in the first place.

Of course, he might be able to do some of those things to some extent, but it would have side effects and limitations that would just be too obvious to ignore.

That is why...for Lucifer to be able to decipher the very structure complex of the magic circle that the brain activated for the illusion is just amazing.

Of course, the ability that was able to make Lucifer be able to decipher the very structure complex of the magic circle is also amazing.

Well, it was the same thing...Lucifer and Lucifer's ability, at the end of the day.

And since Lucifer was able to decipher the magic circle, he now knows how the illusion works.

And to be honest, Lucifer...is not impressed at all.

Even though he was impressed on how the illusion was able to make him...unaware of everything, now that he knows the ins and outs of the illusion magic, it does not even feel that amazing anymore.

And it is exactly because of that Lucifer could not help but get even more curious about the magic.

No, he was no longer interested in the magic circle or the illusion magic.

What he was curious about was...the one who made this kind of illusion magic, its creator.

One has to be a madman to even think about using illusion magic this way, and Lucifer liked it.

Why?

Well, the answer is simple. It was really simple.

It is because...the illusion magic...is not just any illusion magic.

To be exact, the illusion magic is coupled with several other kinds of magic.

It is coupled with...summoning magic and air magic.

Of course, just because the illusion magic is coupled with other kinds of magic does not really make it special.

Lucifer can also combine water and fire to make a very bizarre magic with no real problems at all.

However, what was interesting in this illusion magic is how the magic is used.

When Lucifer first killed the horses, he knew at that moment that they were real and not an illusion.

That is why he never even thought that they could be an illusion or anything of the sort.

And if they were an illusion, then Lucifer would know right away since...after all, he's a god.

Not just anyone can fool the senses and knowledge of a god.

Not even another god can do something like that, which is why most fights between gods end up being finished on who has more raw strength and power.

That is why...Lucifer is not wrong when he ended up thinking that the horses are not an illusion.

Right, he is not wrong because it is the truth that the horses were not just an illusion or anything of the sort.

The horses were...summoned here with summoning magic. It is because they were real living magic horses that Lucifer ended up thinking that they are not an illusion.

Lucifer is never wrong about that, and this is why it becomes even more interesting.

Lucifer killed the first batch of horses, and now, the corpses of the first batch disappeared as it was replaced by the new living horses.

What's more, the horses...do not feel as if they are living creatures.

But Lucifer knows that if he comes into contact with these horses would he then conclude that they are indeed living creatures.

It was weird considering that all of this is very complicated.

The horses are here because of summoning magic, and that's a fact.

But why do they feel as if they are not living creatures?

That is because of the air magic. The air magic is so advanced that it is the reason why it was able to fool Lucifer.

It is the reason why...the horses do not feel as if they are living creatures, and that is the reason why when Lucifer killed the first batch of horses, he felt that they were real.

It is because the air magic is interrupting his senses. And it was not just the air magic. The real purpose of the illusion magic here is to support both the summoning magic and the air magic.

In other words, this...is not really an illusion or anything of the sort.

It could be very well said that it is summoning magic with some kind of air trickery in it.

And that is why Lucifer is curious about the creator of this technique...of this magic.

This magic is so bizarre that the creator of this kind of magic must be a madman.

And the audacity of this madman to even call himself an illusionist...Lucifer was really curious about the creator.

Summoning magic that was backed with illusion magic and air magic...

The air magic is advanced enough to even fool Lucifer. Of course, it was only able to fool Lucifer because this is the first time that Lucifer has met with this kind of magic.

This is the first time that he saw air magic being applied this way.

Now that he has experienced it for himself, he would not be fooled by it anymore the next time he comes around it or anything of the sort.

Nonetheless, the fact that Lucifer was even fooled by it is amazing.

One could even say that the one who created this magic must have been a master at air magic rather than illusion magic.

Sure, Lucifer's senses might be crippled somehow because of his current condition but that is not an excuse.

That is the main reason why Lucifer wanted to meet the creator of this magic.

'To fool even me...that is not something anyone can just do. Someone who is skilled with air magic, knowledgeable enough with both summoning and illusion magic...this guy is interesting.' Lucifer thought.

However, his thoughts...finally ended there when the brain spoke again.

"Now that the horses are finally back, shall we continue our journey to the Luciferian Empire with our new guest?" The brain spoke.

Of course, no one really answered since it was not really a question that one should answer.

Anyway, Lucifer was looking at the brain differently now. Since the brain is the one who knows the magic, he probably also knows who the creator of this magic is.

'I need to know...' Lucifer thought as he could feel the carriage being pulled by the horses now.
