Shock! The Spell Is In English!

Chapter 9: Golden Runes

The effect was not bad, and the scene was very brilliant.

Lugh’s heart skipped a beat, and he casually picked up a bright red apple from the dining table. The apple gradually metalized, giving off a cold metallic luster, and its weight also increased quite a bit.

Under Lugh’s gaze, the metallic apple twisted its shape and turned into a sharp dagger. Lugh waved his hand, and the dagger nimbly flew around the room, like a lark.

This scene made Lugh very excited. Being able to control the metal at will meant that he could kill enemies from a distance and protect his own safety.

This reminded him of a manga character he had read about, “Magneto.” Magneto’s specialty was being able to control the metal at will. He was very powerful.

I wonder how far I can control it.

Lugh controlled the dagger to fly out of the window, intending to test the range of his control.

The rune ability was not unlimited. Even though he had the ability to control metal, it would still be limited by the distance and the rune-master’s spiritual power.

If the enemy was thousands of meters away from him, even if he could control metal, he would not be able to do anything to the enemy.

The dagger pierced through the air until it was about a hundred meters away. After a few weak struggles, it broke away from Yarne’s control and fell weakly from the air.

Lugh had a rough idea in his mind. It seems that the range of my control is about 100 meters. The other control abilities should be about the same.

100 meters might not be big, but it was enough. Within 100 meters, he was a god!

It would be impossible for a higher-level rune-master to pose a threat to Lugh within 100 meters.

Lugh waved his hand again and controlled the branches outside. They grew into vines that looked like octopus tentacles. He picked up the dagger. The vines extended to the room where Lugh stood.

After he took the dagger, the tentacles fell back to the ground and disappeared as if nothing had happened.

“Whoosh.”

Under Lugh’s gaze, the dagger burst into flames. As the flames burned, the dagger glowed red. Just as the dagger was about to melt, the flames strangely disappeared again. A ball of water vapor condensed into a water ball and wrapped around the dagger.

When the scalding dagger came into contact with the water ball, white mist immediately appeared.

Lugh tried out all the different abilities. These abilities were all very powerful. As long as he used them well, his combat ability would be greatly improved.

However, Lugh felt that it was not enough. Not only did the Simon Royal Family have a large number of soldiers, but they also had powerful high-level rune-masters.

This included Berg himself, who was also a rune-master.

Therefore, for this assassination mission, Lugh felt that he should be more sure. He should condense a few more runes to ensure the success of this mission. Otherwise, if he failed, even if he could escape from the Simon Empire, it would not be so easy to assassinate Berg next time.

Tomorrow, on the day of the wedding, was the time when Berg was the most relaxed.

From the angles of attack, stealth, and body, I should be prepared. What else is missing?

Lugh paced back and forth in the room, seriously thinking about his shortcomings.

Healing ability. Yes, once I’m injured, my injuries will affect my ability to perform and assassinate Berg.

Berg must have a rune-master protecting him. If I get close to Berg, I might be exposed. I need to deceive these rune masters through false appearances.

Lugh thought of the healing ability and the illusion ability that could create the illusions he needed.

Once he was injured, even if he had all kinds of powerful abilities, it would be difficult for him to use them. After all, the rune ability required a rune-master’s physical and mental strength.

With the healing ability, he could ensure that he could heal his wounds as soon as possible.

As for the illusion ability, it was also very practical. It could create illusions and deceive others. It could save him a lot of trouble.

Also, I need to be fast. It’s best if I can be fast enough to affect time.

His attack power had been greatly increased, but his speed had not changed.

Lugh thought of a manga character that could run at the speed of light, changing time and reversing time. The fastest speed should be time. If he could reverse time or stop it, then no one in the runic world would be able to kill him. At the very least, Lugh would not die within the triggered time.

Heal, illusion, speed, time.

Four words appeared in his mind. Heal, illusion, speed, these three words quickly transformed into purple runes.

Only the time word was extremely slow in transforming.

This made Lugh extremely puzzled. Could it be that time cannot be transformed into runes?

Just as Lugh was thinking, the time word finally transformed into runes. However, it was different from the other purple runes.

The time rune was actually not a purple rune, but a golden rune that was emitting a dazzling golden light.

Lugh’s eyes were filled with shock. A golden rune?

According to records, the runes in the rune world only had seven colors, representing seven levels. He had never heard of the existence of a golden rune.

The moment the golden rune appeared in his mind, it flickered with a dazzling golden light, emitting a majestic power that suppressed the light of the other purple runes.

Under the golden rune’s light, the other purple runes actually cowered in the corner of his mind.

Overbearing, powerful!

Could it be…?

Lugh thought of a possibility. The most fundamental power that formed the world was time and space.

Only gods could control time and space!

That was why the time rune in his mind was different from the other runes. Its energy level far surpassed other’s abilities.
