The Demon Queen's Disciple
Chapter 82 - The New Power

"Congratulations, you did a good Awakening, Lucius" said Carmilla, who immediately gave her the robe. Leaving only that black shirt with long sleeves on her.

Without hesitation, Lucius immediately put on that Carmilla robe. Even though it is only a cloak, it is better than not wearing clothes at all.

"Damn it, you didn't say my clothes would be damaged" Lucius complained as he fixed the robe so that his body would not be so visible.

"I forgot, hehe." Carmilla replied with a smile with that mocking face.

The powerful waves and vibrations that destroyed Lucius' body indirectly destroyed his clothes. But that was no longer a problem for her now.

Because at this time....

"You saw it, right?" lucius asked with a cynical look.

"eeh? Seen what? I don't know what you mean. Fuuuuh.. fuuuuh.." replied Carmilla who tried hard to whistle it, but continuously failed in every experiment.

"You?!" shouts Lucius who is trying to attack Carmilla. But his attack was easily dodged as Lucius' current body had already become much weaker

"Haha! You won't be able to catch me!"

"Shut up on the spot and let me hit you once!"

After about two minutes of chasing, Lucius began to run out of breath. He unconsciously moved with the thought that his body still had the physical ability that it used to be.

What he thinks is just an ordinary light run, it turns out is a sprint run with full energy in this new body. It makes him tired very quickly.

"Well.... Huh.... Huh.... I forgot this body actually became very weak...."

"By the way, Lucius. Do you still have your magic eyes?" ask Carmilla briefly.

"Eh?"

"I saw the Stellastra in your broken body. So I think your magic eyes should be destroyed, too."

Instead of getting an answer, Carmilla gets a new question.

"What do you mean? I saw earlier.... Wait?!"

It was then that Lucius woke up. Lucius was able to see Mana just as he had when he activated the magic eye. But in reality, he no longer had those magic eyes. Not even a single shred of mana in his eyes.

Even so, he could see well in the midst of this darkness. Likewise, the flow of Mana in Carmilla's body as well as Mana scattered around it.

"I guessed it. Your movements just now were quite strange, so I wondered." Carmilla replied briefly. He appears to rest his chin on his right fist while closing his eyes.

"Eh?! Whyyy?! Why is it like this?!" it was Lucius who kept opening and covering his eyes with both palms.

"I don't know either. Even back then when I was doing Awakening, I also lost my magic eyes completely. Lucius, take a look at my fingertips." Carmilla replied as she raised the index finger on her left hand.

"Huh?"

"What do you see?" ask Carmilla briefly.

In Lucius's view, He could see Mana beginning to flow toward his fingers. Before the Mana with the bright green color was slowly turning into redness at the tip of his index finger.

"What am I looking at? Hm.... Where did you turn red?" reply Lucius.

"If now?" ask Carmilla again.

"Hmm? Why is it blue?"

"What about now?"

"Browniness.... Wait, I don't understand what you mean."

"Then this?" ask Carmilla again.

"Green.... Waitaminute! Don't say?!" shouted Lucius who immediately realized the reality.

Carmilla is then seen lowering her left hand before walking closer to Lucius. He drew his face closer to Lucius, watching Lucius' brown eyes more closely.

"As I thought. You can now even see the Mana change itself before my magic activates." Carmilla said with a sinister look on her face.

"So from then on...."

"Yes. I only intend to create a small magic of various elements. But you can already see what magic I'm going to use, even before I use it. What the fuck are those eyes. I didn't even have such strong eyesight before." Carmilla replied with a visibly irritated face.

He turned his face away from Lucius before folding his arms in anger.

"Wait first! You're not kidding, are you?! If it's like that.... Isn't that...."

Too powerful. That was what Lucius had in mind, but hesitated to say.

Being able to see the Mana changes before the magic was activated, could certainly give Lucius an enormous edge in any fight.

It was as if he could see a few seconds into the future what magic element his opponent would use before the magic itself was activated.

Because unknowingly, everyone would change the Mana in his own body before activating magic. It is a habit that cannot be separated from everyone.

Except for Mana control they were so skilled that the gap between the change of Mana and the activation of magic was very short. But does such a skilled person really exist?

Even Carmilla can't seem to do it.

'Is this the effect of Awakening being too perfect? Maybe he was so focused when he re-formed his eyes? So his vision became this strong?'

Carmilla had no intention whatsoever to say that Lucius had obtained an over-perfect Awakening.

Giving a compliment to Lucius once in a while was indeed a good thing. But if Lucius himself realizes his achievements are beyond what Carmilla has known?

He feared that Lucius would grow his head once more, then relax his training.

But....

"Damn it! How am I going to sleep like this?! I even still saw a hint of Mana when I closed my eyes! Goddamnit! Carmilla! Do you have a trick to make this disappear?!"

Lucius himself was not well aware of the true value of his new powers. Even seem annoyed by his existence.

'If at that time I had such a vision. Maybe me....'

"Carmilla! Say something!" it was Lucius who broke Carmilla's mind at that moment.

"Sorry, I have no other idea but to gouge your eyes out." Carmilla replied jokingly. He was even seen slightly sticking out his tongue to mock Lucius.

"Huh?! You crazy?! There's no way I'm doing that, is there?"

"By the way, Lucius. When are you gonna get back to putting magic eyes on? I'm gonna put it on you, so you're gonna put one on me, too."

"I've even had trouble with this vision! What would happen if I put magic eyes once again on eyes that were already like this?!" lucius shouted in annoyance.

"Stop it. Maybe your vision has become even stronger?" reply Carmilla relaxed while raising both of her hands. Giving an impressed look so indifferent.

After that, Lucius returned to his room using the portal he had created.

And that night....

He could not sleep because no matter how tightly he closed his eyes, Lucius could still see the flow of Mana moving here and there in his sight.
