Pendragon's Infinity Gauntlet

Page 117

“Baka, I’m not trying to put out a fire. Your runes are all pasted on the outside walls.”

Tyr was jolted awake by the words of the Cleansing God. She now realized that the runes she had pasted on the outside of the wall must have been completely soaked by the fire-fighting water, and her expression turned horrified.

I never thought of this! My magic has left such a big flaw!

"boom!"

An astonishing heatwave swept in from downstairs, followed by surging flames. Water droplets in the air were instantly evaporated by the terrifying heat, turning into billowing white mist like celestial vapor.

"23333! You've got a knack for this."

Seeing his Witch-hunting King reappear, Tyr breathed a slight sigh of relief. Fortunately, the other party's plan had not succeeded, otherwise the situation would have been dire.

It turns out that the Witch Hunter King was just lost downstairs.

"However, you lack experience. Newspaper is not toilet paper; it is not so fragile that it will completely dissolve when it gets wet."

The toilet paper in Japan is water-soluble; this design was originally intended to prevent toilet clogging.

Although he was panicking inside, Tyr still put on a confident smile and gave orders to the Witch Hunter King standing behind the Goddess of Purity.

"kill."

The monster formed from flames lunged forward, baring its fangs and claws, but the girl it was attacking remained expressionless, letting the scalding steam engulf her figure, only raising her right hand.

She didn't even look at it, because the monster in the flames was much larger than her, allowing her right hand to directly touch its body.

The blast wave from the dissipating flames dispersed the thick steam; a true woman never looks back at an explosion.

The Witch-hunting King summoned by Tyr did not regenerate this time, but instead vanished completely.

"Impossible! My runes clearly didn't fail!"

Startled, Tyr took a step back and stared at the woman in disbelief.

"It's ink."

Although Jing Shen's bangs, wet from the water, were stuck together and looked unsightly, her eyes were unusually sharp.

"Even if the paper carrying the runes doesn't melt, the ink will still spread when it gets into the water."

Runes whose shape has changed, or even blurred and disappeared, will certainly not have the original effect.

Jing Shen had thought this before, and now she's seen that she made the right bet.

"Slay the Witch King!" "Slay the Witch King!"

Tyr tried to summon his trump card to fight, but all his efforts were in vain in the face of the inescapable force of materialism.

What scientifically advanced magical runes!

Dad said to use magic to defeat magic, but your reasoning is so scientific, it's not magical at all.

I still suffered from my lack of education. Next time I go to the print shop, I'll remember to tell the owner I want carbon ink.

"Then now..."

The Pure God began to clench his right hand and charge at the magician.

"Dust to dust!"

Tyr panicked when he saw the approaching God of Purification and increased the speed of his chanting.

"Back to earth!"

However, after the barrier's power completely disappeared, her magic, like a typical case of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), was reduced to nothing more than incredibly embarrassing incantations.

"Vampire hunters targeting the Red Cross..."

Friendship Breaking Fist!

The purifying maiden unleashed a punch of destiny, striking Tyr squarely in the head. The immense force caused Tyr to lose consciousness and collapse onto the waterlogged floor.

P.S.: I'm going to take a shower first, then I'll see if I can stay up all night and finish one chapter, meow =-=

Chapter 200 Little Cutie

Chapter 200

The fire alarm was triggered automatically at the same time as the fire alarm bell. Tyr's magic only dispelled ordinary people within the area and did not block the signal. In addition, the barrier had been removed, so the fire convoy successfully arrived here to carry out disaster relief and firefighting operations, and the speed was also very fast.

Not only firefighters, but also a large number of security personnel were deployed to maintain order in the area.

After the magic was dispelled, the smoking dormitory building was hard to miss, and soon a large group of students on their way home from school gathered there.

Among them was the "Electric Boy" that Jing Shen had mentioned before. He had nothing to do after dinner, so he sneaked out of the dormitory for a night stroll, or rather, he came specifically to find someone who needed tutoring.

She was clearly already in a traffic jam, but she still managed to slip away in the end.

Before the disciplinary committee members and other law enforcement agencies arrived, Jing Shen had already temporarily left the area with the injured boy.

The most innocent victims were the students who lived next to Pendragon and in the same building as the God of Purification. Their homes were gone. They didn't know why they went out for a while, and when they came back, their homes were engulfed in fire and thick smoke. They were all completely bewildered.

The matter here has temporarily come to a close, but it is not the end. On the contrary, this is the beginning of countless events.

Pendragon could see from the balcony that the Goddess of Purity was carrying the young nun away, and the wound that had been slightly treated had reopened and was bleeding again.

"..."

Oh well, with all that glory around, everything will be alright in the end.

Pendragon had just used the Time Stone to check and knew that this injury wouldn't be fatal.

However, this excitement didn't last long. The variety show was only half-shot, and it was frustrating that it was stuck in the middle.

After looking at the paper scraps that could be made with a printer for a while, Miss Rin still couldn't accept them and gave up on the research.

Her habits as a magician didn't allow her to use this, and she wasn't really interested in studying magic anymore; she only asked Pendragon to get some out of curiosity.

I cleaned up the leftover watermelon rinds after eating the watermelon, and I'm going to use them to stir-fry some vegetables.

Knowing the excitement wasn't over yet, Pendragon used his personal terminal to throw an observation mark at the Goddess of Purity, telling her to send her a notification if there was anything interesting to see.

Considering that the members of the Index A Certain Magical Index society certainly didn't have identification from Academy City, Jōjin was afraid that sending her to the hospital would only attract the red-haired woman's companions, making the situation even more dangerous.

During his brief period of lucidity in Index: Forbidden Books, the God of Purification learned through conversation that healing magic could only be used by ordinary people who had not undergone superpower development.

But where can you find ordinary people like this in a city overflowing with superpowers?

The girl quickly went through her network of contacts in her mind, and the image of an adorable little boy instantly appeared in her mind.

"I'm sorry, Xiaomeng33, among all the ordinary people I know, you're the only one I can trust."

After muttering something under her breath, Jing Shen picked up the Index of Forbidden Books again. She would leave immediately once she had used magic to remove the Index of Forbidden Books; she had already witnessed the dangers of magicians and couldn't drag her teacher into it.

Fortunately, the boy's body was very light, which was not too much of a burden for Jing Shen, who often fought with delinquents and female thugs on the street.

After Pendragon finished watching the variety show with Rin in his arms and went to bed, Shirogane finally carried her to the teacher's doorstep, panting.

She carried herself all the way here, not only without using any transportation, but also taking a long detour to avoid the sight of police patrols and robots.

Fortunately, Jing Shen's physical strength was quite good, and the teacher's house was not far from her own home, otherwise she would have been exhausted.

"Teacher Xiaomeng! Teacher Xiaomeng!"

Jing Shen pounded on the door repeatedly with his hands, not even pressing the doorbell, showing extreme anxiety.

"Don't say he went to bed so early... I'm so sorry."

Jing Shen kicked the door to make a louder noise.

"Thump!" "Hiss!"

Who could withstand that huge iron gate? I'm not a superhuman with superpowers. Luckily, that kick wasn't done with the toes, or my toes would have been broken.

"Hi! Hi! To keep out anyone trying to sell newspapers, I made my doors very sturdy."

So what does the thickness of the door have to do with preventing sales pitches?

The pure-hearted girl squatted down, using one hand to hold the forbidden book index on her back, while the other hand rubbed her feet.

Then the light blue iron gate opened, and a cute little boy wearing bunny pajamas poked his head out of the doorway.

"Oh?"

The crouching Jing Shen was a little shorter than the little boy standing, and the boy teacher, who was used to looking up at people, had a strange first reaction after opening the door: Why is no one here?

"Ah, it's the Little Cleansing God!"

Then the teacher looked down and saw the student who had made himself tearful during the tutoring session earlier that day.

"You've started working at a newspaper?"

The young teacher was rather slow to react. "It's one thing for you to bully me in class, but after get off work you still want to harass me by selling newspapers?"—that's roughly the feeling.

“Who would sell newspapers behind Xiu Nan’s back?”

Jing Shen stood up with a pained expression, leaned against the door frame, and said to the little boy in front of him, "Because I've run into some trouble, I'll go in first."

Taking advantage of her status as a cute student, she barged into the room without any politeness or regard for herself as an outsider.

"Sorry for disturbing you."

"Eh???"

Before the little boy could react, Jing Shen pulled the door open, and the doorknob naturally slipped from his hand, allowing Jing Shen to fully open the iron door.

"Uh...wait a minute! The teacher will be really annoyed!"

Seeing this, the little boy quickly stretched out his hands and pushed hard against Jing Shen's flat abdomen, while also pushing hard with his feet against the ground, using all his strength to turn himself into a support pole in an attempt to stop the girl's intrusion.

However, the "strong" Pure God seemed to completely ignore this resistance, and without pausing, he carried the Catalogue of Forbidden Books into the teacher's house, even closing the door behind him.

The noise in the hallway caught the attention of the neighbor's dog, which barked a few times in dissatisfaction, expressing the anger of a single person.

As soon as she entered, Jing Shen was stunned by the sight inside the room, and stood motionless with her back to everyone...

Because she didn't even know where she could put her feet in the house!

Beer cans were everywhere, clanging and clattering as Teacher Xiaomeng frantically moved around. Not to mention the cigarette butts scattered all over the floor; the ashtray on the low table was overflowing, the upside-down cigarette butts resembling a profusion of blooming flowers.

P.S.: In the end, I couldn't resist falling asleep on the keyboard. The silly owner took a screenshot as proof.

Chapter 201 Xiaomeng Takes a Break and Calms Down

Chapter 201

With a blank expression, Jing Shen watched as the boy, who looked like a little rabbit, quickly cleared a small space on the tatami mat where he could sit or stand.

The cleaning was just a matter of lying on the tatami mat and sweeping a patch of ground with my hands. It was clear that the teacher, whose "chaotic private life" had been discovered, was very nervous and embarrassed.

Jing Shen originally thought her living place was messy enough, but compared to the teacher, she was practically a model of hygiene!

"It's strange to bring this up now... but do you dislike guys who smoke?"

The little boy looked embarrassed. As Jing Shen gently placed the Forbidden Book Index back where the boy had just cleaned up, she grumbled:

"Although I don't dislike boys who smoke, they should at least clean up the cigarette butts at home, teacher."

It looks like a garbage dump.

Jing Shen didn't say much about the little boy's personal hygiene, because the state of the Forbidden Book Index was already very dangerous.

The young boy was also startled by the man covered in blood. He only then realized that the person his student had brought was in a very dangerous situation, practically on the verge of death.

"How is this going?"

"Teacher, actually..."

Just as the God of Purification was about to speak, the body of the Catalogue of Forbidden Books emitted light, indicating that the emergency measures for the life-threatening situation had been triggered, and the artificial intelligence hosting system (automatic bookkeeping) of the magic world had been activated.

The little boy was startled by the strange thing in front of him, but he quickly recovered. After all, he had seen all kinds of superpowers and was very receptive to them.

If the body loses too much blood and is not treated soon, it will start to cool down in fifteen minutes.

The little boy was completely confused after hearing Xiu Nan mention something about "magic" earlier, and even wanted to smoke a cigarette to calm down.

Because of the injury to her right hand, Jing Shen could only leave the room far away to avoid affecting the healing magic's restorative effect, leaving only Teacher Xiao Meng's right hand, which was holding a cigarette, trembling slightly.

Guided by the magical artificial intelligence, the young boy successfully healed Xiu Nan's injuries on his first attempt at casting magic. However, the blood that had been lost could not be restored through this spell, and he needed to replenish fluids and trace elements to recuperate slowly.

Because the dormitory burned down, Jing Shen and the other two had nowhere to stay, so they had to stay temporarily at Zheng Tai's house. The two boys had bedding, while she could just lie sprawled out on the tatami mat. Anyway, it was hot now and she wouldn't get sick.

In exchange, the cleaning duties at Teacher Xiaomeng's house will be handled by her.
