Dimension Game Empire Chapter 405

The mansion in Rome was provided by the ‘She-Wolf’, one of the seven sisters.

This Roman magic family had been extremely respectful to Xia Yan during this period, even more so than to Salvatore Doni, the nominal leader of the magic alliance.

The head of the ‘She-Wolf’, the leader of the seven families, had realized the special nature of this Campione during several conversations with Xia Yan. The biggest difference was that, compared to other ‘Kings’, this had more leadership skills and demeanor.

Although other Godslayers were called ‘Kings’, they were actually more like being worshiped as great masters by these magicians, and had never guided their subordinates.

Simply put, the seventh Campione had more skills in managing subordinates.

Several subtle warnings in his words made them tremble with fear.

But it also indirectly showed that Xia Yan was far more suitable to be a king than Salvatore Doni.

The sword chooses its master, and the knight also chooses his king. People always want to move upwards.

When the Red Bronze Black Cross and the Bronze Black Cross had already joined Xia Yan’s command, if they were content with the status quo, they would probably have no place in Italy in the future.

These were nothing more than the thoughts of the elders of the Italian magic world.

It was just that unlike the former two, whose granddaughters (nieces) were already people of the Godslayer, no one would believe that there was nothing fishy about it. Their situation was awkward, lacking a ‘name’ to legitimately pledge allegiance to Xia Yan, lacking an opportunity.

After the battle of Sardinia, Xia Yan came to this city to rest, and it had been about a month. No matter how exaggerated and praised the rumors about him were, Xia Yan remained unmoved and had not left the house for a month.

It could be said that he was staying at home after a long absence.

“Have you been busy with something these days?”

Liliana gently brushed a strand of hair from her cheek and placed the afternoon refreshments in front of Xia Yan, asking in a soft voice. After deciding to pledge allegiance, Liliana had completely regarded herself as this ‘King’s’ knight.

“Taking care of the King’s life is also the duty of a knight.”

Saying this, Liliana insisted on taking care of Xia Yan’s daily chores. As for Erika, she followed Xia Yan’s orders and became his spokesperson, constantly traveling among the major magic families, dealing with foreign affairs.

One internal and one external, perfect cooperation, really saved Xia Yan a lot of trouble.

“Erika has also collected so many magic books for you, are you studying some kind of spell?”

Liliana asked suspiciously.

As early as a month ago, Xia Yan had instructed Erika to handle foreign affairs, and not only in Italy, but also from all over Europe, collecting magic books. With the ‘name’ that resounded throughout the world, Erika confidently requisitioned the secret books of various societies.

Even the ancestral secret books were requisitioned without hesitation.

Faced with this overbearing behavior, there were naturally those who were dissatisfied.

Among them was Marquis Voban, who was based in the Balkans, and his affiliated society was even more so. What was shocking was that after the Marquis visited the seventh King’s residence in Rome, the two seemed to have talked for an afternoon, and the Marquis left.

According to the information from the ‘She-Wolf’, this oldest Godslayer was actually smiling happily when he walked out of that residence.

Well, since their boss was like this, they naturally calmed down their thoughts of resistance and obediently handed over the magic secret books.

In other parts of Europe, a paladin, relying on his strength and seniority, was unwilling to hand over his ancestral magic secret book. The next morning, others discovered that the base of this magic society had been completely destroyed.

The base of the entire magic society seemed to have been hit by a meteor, and a huge sinkhole appeared on the ground. Moreover, it was said that red mist appeared in this magic society at night.

This European first-class society instantly lost its base and leading strongman, falling to the second-class level. It was even attacked by its previous enemies, facing a situation of collapse, and the stubbornly guarded magic secret book was taken away by others and presented to the ‘King’.

With such an example of killing the chicken to warn the monkey, other societies also quieted down.

No one was a fool, handing over the magic secret book was much better than losing the ancestral foundation.

After obtaining the secret books of almost all societies in Europe, Xia Yan often locked himself in the house. Several times when Liliana went in to serve three meals, she found Xia Yan’s eyes empty, as if his soul had left his body.

After discovering her arrival, he would return to his gentle smile and greet Liliana.

However, the words of greeting were a bit strange.

“Long time no see, Lily.”

Clearly, it had only been a few hours since they last met, right?

How did it seem like it had been several months since they last met?

Although puzzled, Liliana adhered to the code of chivalry and did not over-pursue the ‘King’s’ deep meaning, wholeheartedly serving Xia Yan’s daily life. However, a little curiosity accumulated to this point, prompting her to ask.

“Spells shouldn’t be useful to Godslayers, right?”

“No, what I’m studying is not spells, but ‘transcendence’.”

Xia Yan loosened his muscles and bones, and after returning from the mentally accelerated spiritual world, he adapted to his long-lost physical body. With his outstanding talent, he quickly returned to his normal state.

“Spells, techniques, magic, yin-yang arts, are actually just different applications of the world’s rules. Their essence is still the pursuit of the world’s truth and the interpretation of its origin. If you want to ‘transcend’ Godslayers, to transcend the limits of ‘Authority’, you can’t do without understanding more about these.”

Xia Yan slowly explained.

“In the end, the dark ritual that gave birth to the Godslayer is also a kind of great spell. It’s just that this great spell exceeds the imagination of magicians and reaches a higher level.”

If you want to get rid of the limitations of secret techniques, you must first understand the essence of their spell composition.

Xia Yan became a Godslayer, although not as one-step-to-heaven as other similar beings, but he did gain powerful power. However, the identity of the Godslayer also became his limitation.

He was not willing to be only at this level, but if he gave up the power he had worked so hard to obtain by slaying a god, he would feel regretful.

Therefore, he chose not to give up, but to transcend this ‘limitation’.

“You always make moves that are both incredible and admirable…”

Liliana shook her head, half-understanding, and said with some distress.

“It always feels like you know everything.”

“No, you’re exaggerating…” Xia Yan shook his head with a wry smile.

“It’s precisely because I don’t know the essence of magic that I’m studying it.”

Speaking of the path of magic, Xia Yan had only cultivated for fifty days under the guidance of Evangeline. After that, he relied entirely on his own learning, and then, with the supreme techniques such as the ‘Magic of Darkness’ taught by Evangeline, he forcibly entered the realm of ‘Elemental Spirit’.

He experienced the rules of the world and comprehended the laws of time.

If he really talked about his understanding of ‘magic’, he was probably not as good as a high-level magician. Of course, in terms of strength, no matter how many high-level magicians came, they would not be his opponents.

After this period of time, constantly learning magic secret books and Western magic basic theories, he was also constantly improving. As for Eastern techniques, the five elements, and Eastern yin-yang arts, as well as various wonderful methods, he had not collected them.

Now his understanding of magic was no less than anyone in this world. Even, not counting those old monsters in the Netherworld who were ‘neither gods nor humans’, he could call himself the number one magician of the present age.

Naturally, it was impossible to improve to such an extent in just one month.

But in the accelerated world, he had already studied for who knows how many years.
