The Evil God Summoned by the Saintess

Chapter 436 - 434: Hilia Wants to Be Kicked Out

Sponsored

In the afternoon, people from the league committee came from Letes City to consult with Hilia about the requirements and material opinions.

After they left, Hilia went to the scroll-making room that the Law Enforcement Knight Order had specially built for her.

Curses Masters from all over the Holy Court were ready and waiting.

Although they are called Curse Masters, most of them specialize in scrolls, and only a few are proficient in curses.

However, there are inherent connections between curses and scrolls, which is why they have been combined.

Both use runes to achieve magic release.

Curses are magic inscribed with spell scripts, while scrolls are spell scripts inscribed with magic.

Before Hilia arrived, the Law Enforcement Knight Order had already informed the Curses Masters in advance to expect her arrival.

When Hilia entered, she saw a total of ten Curses Masters waiting at the workstations inside, and her appearance caught everyone’s attention.

An older person stood up and asked, "Are you the one that Ms. Melina referred to, Miss Hilia, who possesses an extraordinary talent for scrolls?"

Hilia corrected, "Not just scrolls, a genius in arrays, scrolls, magic engineering, and ice element spells."

All the Curses Masters immediately straightened up.

What a boast!

Many of them instantly displayed discontent on their faces.

Every Curse Master employed by the Holy Court is outstanding, having immersed themselves in the art of scrolls for at least ten years.

And Hilia, has she even studied scrolls for three years?

Hilia also noticed their expressions, her face remained unchanged, and she cheered silently for them in her heart.

"Come on! Refute me, and report me to Ms. Melina!"

"Or simply, just leave!"

"It would be best to file a complaint, and then you kick me out and do it yourselves!"

Hilia had no interest in being a ’production line’ worker for scroll manufacturing, no matter how many gold coins were involved, it was too exhausting.

Initially, she had no objection to making them for the Law Enforcement Knight Order.

But she later found out that the Knight Order used them so recklessly, even handing them out for free to mercenaries who ventured into strongholds on life-risking missions.

That made her even more displeased.

It was not just a waste of scrolls.

Those mercenaries lacked holy magic power, and a small mistake could result in them being affected by chaotic pollution.

Why drag them into such a mess?

In such dangerous places.

Even the genius students of the Divine Magic Academy suffered casualties, let alone mercenaries of varying qualities.

Therefore, Hilia had no desire to produce them.

Domain Scrolls were not essential for the Law Enforcement Knight Order. Her original intent was to provide some assurance for her schoolmates to handle unexpected incidents, not as a core tool for clearing missions.

Of course, if someone else were to make them and she didn’t have to get involved, then there would naturally be no problem.

Hilia had also communicated this to Melina, expressing her willingness to share all issues regarding the Wind Domain Combination Scroll with the Curses Masters.

But Melina was unwilling, believing that without Hilia, nothing would work.

To this, Hilia rolled her eyes dramatically: "Do you think I’m the only genius in the world?!"

Now, looking at the Curses Masters who were just as proud as Alvis, Hilia couldn’t help but smile.

That’s how it should be.

Perhaps these Curses Masters were humble in other areas, but in their own realm, they definitely wouldn’t acknowledge Hilia’s bold claims.

It’s like having a group of graduate students assist a high school student with research; no graduate student would willingly agree to it.

Hilia was somewhat famous in arrays, but in scrolls, she was relatively unknown.

If she were a bit more humble, everyone would get along.

But instead, she started off by claiming to be an all-around genius...

How could they possibly be willing?

The standing Curse Master stated, "Genius or not, you’ll know in ten years. For now, our task is to cooperate with the Law Enforcement Knight Order to siege the heretics with this scroll. This scroll magic is said to be your research; I concede, your talent in magic is indeed impressive, but there are some differences between scrolls and magic, perhaps..."

"Stop babbling, let’s just get started."

Hilia waved her hand, directly taking out a draft of scroll runes sketched with an ordinary pen.

"This is the rune draft, with annotations on each rune node and magic power magnitude. Here are some finished scrolls; take a look, compare them with the draft notes, and familiarize yourselves first."

Hilia divided the draft into three parts, "This scroll has three sections, each group of three will be responsible for one section’s drawing. Once the first section is completed, pass it to the second section, and then to the third section..."

There are 10 people here, and after Hilia distributed the tasks, she looked toward the most senior Curse Master, the one who had stood up, and said, "The last part is to connect the three sections of the scroll, which is critical since this scroll is the fusion of three magics. Can you do it? If so, please help me, if not, I’ll do it alone."

The other snorted, "Of course I can, but Miss Hilia, I advise you to speak nicely instead of being so arrogant, otherwise..."

"As long as it gets done, think what you want, go ahead and complain to Melina." Hilia was unconcerned.

This attitude instantly annoyed all the Curses Masters.

Who does she think she is?

Does she think she’s the only one here who can make scrolls?!

Upon receiving the drafts and the finished and semi-finished products from Hilia, the Curses Masters began to focus.

Including the elder Curse Master.

Hilia thought for a moment, then finally remembered his name.

Boyleid, a Tier Four Mage, a well-known Curse Master of the Holy Court.

The Deep Sea offensive, the Holy Court really valued it.

"If he’s a known Curse Master, he should handle it." Hilia thought to herself.

These were certainly once genius Curses Masters, and after watching for a short while, someone immediately picked up a blank scroll to try replicating it.

Very soon, frequent flashes of failed attempts appeared, making Hilia unable to hold back.

"No, with such a low success rate, you can’t make scrolls."

She went over to take a look and said irritably, "Didn’t I say three groups, each responsible for part of it? Why are you trying to draw the full map? Are you crazy?"

The Curses Masters she scolded immediately protested, "Without drawing the full map, how can we understand the scroll’s principles, how can we draw the scroll?"

"There’s absolutely no need." Hilia replied grumpily: "I tell you, even non-geniuses like Benovia and Phil have higher success rates than you. If you insist on understanding the entire scroll instead of doing your part, before you kick me out, I’ll have you thrown out first!"

One retorted disbelievingly, "It’s impossible, how could you draw a scroll without understanding its principles?"

"I’m not asking you to draw the entire thing, just a part, if you can’t, please leave."

Hilia looked at everyone.

Nobody moved.

Every gaze was peculiar.

"Fine, if you’re not leaving, I will!"

Saying this, Hilia turned around and decisively ran away.

Leaving the room, she finally couldn’t suppress the upward curl of her lips.

Run quickly, before they change their minds!
