Chapter 93 The Protagonist Who Didn't Get a Chance to Appear
After dealing with that awakened one.
The crow quickly sucked the blood while it was still hot, then threw the blood-sucking corpse onto a pile of corpses not far away.
Xu Yuan stretched out his hand, channeled his fire attribute energy, and a ball of flame appeared out of thin air three inches above his palm.
He called it the Fireball Technique.
I don't know what a real fireball spell is like.
Anyway, it was born from the continuous compression of fire-attribute energy, and its shape is a high-energy ball of flame.
Incidentally, it has also developed into a skill.
The Wind Blade skill was not formed.
Perhaps the wind blades weren't compressed enough?
In short, Xu Yuan put in a lot of effort to research this spell that was so common in isekai (another world) works.
Indeed, magic is very difficult to learn.
"Huh?! Fireball?!"
Having spent some time in the real world, most of them had a general understanding of many things.
Although I may not have gone very deep into it, I still recognize these basic magic concepts.
"It will be much easier to start a fire from now on," Royal said.
"This thing can't be started."
"But isn't it fire?"
"Yes, but—"
As Xu Yuan spoke, he casually threw out his fireball, manipulating it to land on the pile of corpses.
The corpses of the awakened ones turned to ashes as quickly as paper being swallowed up when they came into contact with the flame.
"Firewood turns to ash the moment it touches it, how can you light it?" Xu Yuan shook his head. "Besides, why would I use magic when I have a lighter?"
The crowd asked in confusion, "Is that a fireball spell?"
"It looks exactly like a fireball spell, doesn't it?"
"Uh, that's true—"
At this moment, Galadriel said, "I didn't expect Priscilla to have awakened. She was quite pitiful in the story."
Priscilla is a tragic character.
She was born in a poor little village.
Father, mother, brother, sister, and her—a family of five.
The father is a demon.
Ordinary people cannot identify demons.
The cost of hiring a greatsword is very high.
As victims began to appear one after another, the village had no choice but to isolate them in turn in an attempt to force the demon out.
Those who were quarantined received food from others and were also given a sword to fight against demons.
When it was Priscilla's family's turn, her father could no longer resist the urge to eat people.
She ate her mother, brother, and sister.
Only Priscilla miraculously awoke, witnessed this scene, and then personally killed her father, who was a demon, with her sword.
However, the villagers were afraid and did not lift the barriers around her house.
This prevented Priscilla from getting out.
In order to survive, she had to eat the corpse of her demon father.
It wasn't until a month later, when a greatsword happened to pass by, that she was rescued.
This childhood experience was dark and twisted.
This caused Priscilla to hate demons intensely and to firmly believe in the organization's publicly proclaimed ideals.
Xu Yuan felt that Priscilla was a contradictory person.
On the one hand, she has a strong tendency toward self-destruction.
When Priscilla awakened, she placed a curse on herself—that she would never see young girls again.
This is also why, after killing Theresa, she clearly wanted to eat people, yet ignored Claire who was standing nearby. The reason she placed this curse was because the little girl might become a Claymore in the future and thus kill her.
After awakening, she attempted suicide, but failed.
Because she possesses an immortal body that can regenerate infinitely once injured, and each time she regenerates, the strength of the corresponding part increases by leaps and bounds.
(But in the end, he was instantly defeated by Theresa's awakened form, which shows that there is no true immortality in the face of sufficiently powerful forces.)
Priscilla's self-destructive tendencies probably began when she killed and ate her own father.
She reached her peak after awakening and transforming into a demon.
On the other hand, Priscilla also has a strong will to survive.
In order to survive, she was able to raise a sword and kill her own father at a young age.
In order to survive, she could feed on the corpse of her father, who was a demon.
In order to survive—
As Theresa's sword came down on her head, a powerful will to survive overwhelmed everything, leading her to choose to awaken.
Even if she becomes a demon, she will live on.
This is a contradictory person who secretly wants to die, but has an exceptionally strong survival instinct.
"She's really quite pitiful," Xu Yuan nodded. "So let's send her to be reincarnated as soon as possible."
Priscilla is very pitiful.
But this does not erase the sins she committed.
In the original comic, after she awakens, she wanders around, killing and eating people from town to town.
Moreover, she was very clear about her situation.
But they didn't control their desires.
After all, she hated everything in the world, including herself.
Daye believed that Priscilla's power stemmed from her endless hatred.
Xu Yuan disagreed with this.
Because this doesn't explain Theresa's power.
If Daye knew how strong Theresa was, he probably wouldn't think that way.
Xu Yuan felt that the reason was actually quite simple.
It's all about potential.
Just like some people are smart, some are stupid, some run fast, and some run slow.
Can't Priscilla's strength be simply due to her high potential?
Why do we have to find some reason like hatred?
Why are some people strong while others are weak when they all wield greatswords? Why are some people good at perception, some good at brute force, some good at speed, and some good at control?
Is it because the hatred in their hearts is different?
Isn't that ridiculous?!
Priscilla's strength is a fact.
Priscilla's hatred is also a fact.
But facts cannot be used to explain facts.
Instead of linking the two characteristics of her together, they believed that they were causally related.
This is just wild speculation.
This is definitely not the mindset that scientific researchers should have.
Moreover, this view that "hatred generates power" cannot explain much and does not possess the broad explanatory power that a good theory should have.
Closer to home.
If Priscilla hasn't awakened yet, Xu Yuan won't do anything to her; he can simply ignore her.
It's a story, but it didn't actually happen, did it?
But since she has awakened and is now wandering around eating people, there's nothing more to say.
Find her as soon as possible and send her on her way.
The others nodded in agreement with Xu Yuan's statement.
"Shall we go find Priscilla now?"
"No, let's wipe out the organization first."
As Xu Yuan spoke, he spread his wings and said, "But now that we're here, we can't just leave that demon alone. You guys wait here, I'll be right back."
After saying that, he quickly went over there alone.
A short while later, Xu Yuan returned, carrying a little girl in his hand.
The expressions on everyone's faces became somewhat strange.
"What a coincidence?!"
"Yes, it's such a coincidence."
"6
'
"Perhaps it's because fate is on my side, or perhaps it's because she's the protagonist of the story."
Xu Yuan picked up Claire and looked at her.
"Although you won't have any more opportunities to play, this is actually a good thing for you."
