Chapter 42 - 31 Fairy Magic
Bailuo rode Sherri, letting Lilith fly in front of him, while walking and inquiring about Lilith’s specific abilities.
With Lilith, the Yatun Clan also came to possess amazing magical abilities.
This made the journey of the People of Yatun many times safer.
Lilith bestowed a special Miracle Power upon every member of the troop, shielding their scent and thereby making them invisible to wild beasts.
Meanwhile, Sherri and Lilith worked together, sensing the movements around them.
If they encountered humans, they could detect them from several kilometers away and would immediately report to Bailuo.
Bailuo, having a bit of leisure time, began to inquire, “Is this magic, Lilith?”
“It’s a bit different from the magic you know, Master.”
Lilith was unable to read Bailuo’s mind, but she could perfectly understand the words he spoke.
Therefore, when Bailuo mentioned ‘magic,’ Lilith automatically gained an understanding of his knowledge about magic and everything related to it.
“Many aspects of the Master’s magic are beyond what Lilith can achieve.”
Lilith kept growing, accumulating a considerable reserve of knowledge compared to her initial confusion at birth, “But there are some things Lilith can do that your magic cannot, Master.”
Following that, Bailuo kept communicating with Lilith on the journey, asking questions and receiving answers.
Sometimes, Lilith would use her Miracle Power to demonstrate for Bailuo.
In the end, Bailuo named Lilith’s Miracle Power as Fairy Magic.
“Alright, let’s take a break, everyone.”
“Nors, Fiona, find a place to rest.”
Due to Lilith’s arrival, Bailuo decided to ease the taxing marching, allowing everyone to rest even at noon.
“Yes!”
Soon, Nors and Fiona found a small stream where everyone gathered to prepare lunch.
“Those mushrooms are so cute.”
“Yeah, it would be great if we could keep one.”
“We definitely can in the future, once we reach our new home. Maybe we can play with them then.”
Perhaps it was the possession of three miracles that significantly boosted the confidence of the People of Yatun, no longer anxious about the future but instead full of hope and anticipation.
This was a good thing. As citizens, the People of Yatun deserved to relax a bit.
Bailuo would take on the pressure of the future, as it was his duty as a king.
Of course, there were also the uncle, the senior sister, Nors, Jiera, and others.
They were warriors, soldiers of Yatun. The common people could breathe easily, but they could not afford to slack off.
“Can it really be done?”
“Of course!”
Bailuo said to Lilith, “Show us your power, Lilith.”
“Okay, Master.”
At that moment, everyone sat together to watch Lilith’s performance.
She had people bring over a lot of food, raw vegetables, freshly caught game, and various spices.
“Change swiftly into delicious food.”
Lilith danced in the air, conjuring a magic wand with energy, then gently tapped the air with it a few times.
“Wow!”
Amidst the gasps of the onlookers, all the food began to move on its own.
The game was quickly butchered, slices of fresh meat were automatically marinated, vegetables were rapidly cleaned, and then cut to the right size.
“Boom!”
Firewood floated together, forming several bonfires, and the water in the pots boiled swiftly.
Then came a ‘plop plop’ sound, as all the food, following a sequence, slipped into the pots under the manipulation of an invisible force.
“It smells so good.”
“It smells amazing!”
The whole process took no more than twenty seconds, yet in that brief moment, Lilith prepared lunch for everyone.
” Incredible, it’s simply unbelievable.”
Nors and his sister Fiona sat together eating the delicious food: “This ability, it’s just like a dream.”
“Yes.”
Jiera agreed, “Is this magic then, our power?”
The existence of Lilith completely overturned their understanding and common sense.
Lilith’s Fairy Magic could not conjure things from thin air but could change the form and state of matter.
“Can this be done, Lilith?”
Over here, Bailuo held a jar containing the soy sauce that the uncle had been developing these days.
However, the soy sauce was still in the fermentation stage, and it would take at least a month to be completed.
“Yes, it’s very easy.”
“Snap.”
Lilith just snapped her fingers, and the lid of the jar automatically opened, letting Bailuo smell an extremely familiar scent.
“Soy sauce!”
Bailuo looked at the jar in his arms, the black condiment inside, which he knew all too well.
Instantly!
In just an instant, the curing and fermentation of the seasoning were completed.
“Yes, that’s the exact flavor, just like I remember it.”
Bailuo scooped up some to taste, and it was indeed the flavor from his memories—Lilith’s ability was like a heaven-sent blessing for food lovers.
She could ignore the recipes, ignore the cooking process, and directly manifest the dishes in Bailuo’s mind, one by one.
The only problem was that Lilith couldn’t conjure up the ingredients, so Bailuo and the others had to prepare them first.
They didn’t need to be exactly the same; a close approximation would suffice.
Fairy Magic allowed for such discrepancies, existing precisely to fill in these gaps-
Of course, there was another issue.
That was, Lilith herself didn’t possess any culinary talents; she could only replicate the tastes in Bailuo’s memory.
Thus, if it were a delicacy that even Bailuo had never tasted, Lilith would be unable to complete it with Fairy Magic.
Unless Uncle had developed it first and let Lilith or Bailuo taste it, only then could Lilith perfectly recreate Uncle’s recipe.
Still, even with these limitations, Lilith’s ability was quite overpowered.
For the People of Yatun, such assembly-line production of domestic magic directly liberated the majority of the labor force.
“Magic, so powerful.”
Little Helen clapped her hands repeatedly, having become completely captivated by Lilith—wherever the fairy princess went, the little girl would follow.
And it wasn’t just Little Helen; Miya, Elsa, and evenlnya felt the same way.
There was no helping it; Lilith was truly miraculous.
Soon, the lunch break was over, and everyone was ready to move out.
Uncle then found Lilith and Bailuo; he had something for which he wanted Lilith’s assistance.
“Lilith’s magic, indeed, is very excellent.”
Saying this, Uncle brought out some iron ore and then said to Lilith, “Could the Fairy Miss please help this old man forge some tools?”
Lilith was not a pet but Bailuo’s Miracle Creature, the protective deity of their Yatun Clan.
There was no such thing as too much respect for her.
Throughout all Yatun, aside from Bailuo, no one could afford to disregard Lilith and Sherri, for it was their power that protected everyone.
“I will provide the specific end products, and if needed, the Fairy Miss can observe the process and watch the old man forge them.”
“Lilith, please lend a hand.”
Bailuo spoke as such, and logically, Lilith was expected to proceed.
“Yes, Master.”
With Bailuo’s command, Lilith promptly took action.
She had a fondness for children, especially girls.
But towards the elderly, men, and adult women, Lilith was actually indifferent.
Therefore, without Bailuo’s explicit order, Lilith wouldn’t take it upon herself to fulfill the wishes of adults.
“Turn into weapons.”
The brilliance of Fairy Magic transformed into little specks of starlight, sprinkling onto the iron ore.
However, this time, Lilith merely made the iron ore float in midair, and after a long while, she shook her head, “Lilith can’t doit.”
“Lilith can’t turn it into weapons.”
As Lilith spoke, she waved her Fairy Wand, and the onlookers saw a tree transform, pushing out bows, wooden swords, and spears: “Lilith can only make these.”
“Can’t affect ironware?”
Bailuo hadn’t expected Fairy Magic to have such a problem.
“Not necessarily, maybe she just can’t forge weapons.”
Uncle began to contemplate, and then he said, “We won’t forge weapons. How about iron-made cups, forks, and bowls; can you do that?”
“Hmm, Lilith will try again.”
So, Lilith applied Fairy Magic to the iron ore again, only to discover she still couldn’t do it.
“It won’t work; Lilith also can’t make these.”
Lilith rarely showed signs of discouragement, and Bailuo quickly offered comfort.
“That shouldn’t be, a Middle-ranking Miracle shouldn’t have such a significant flaw.”
After pondering for a moment, Uncle pulled out a chainmail. He hadn’t given up but chose to continue trying: “Lilith, here, try this.”
“Mmm.”
Lilith wasn’t weary, sensing Uncle’s importance to Bailuo and knowing the old man possessed wisdom beyond imagination.
“Eh?”
This time, Bailuo and Uncle discovered that the chainmail actually began to change.
It dissolved on its own, turning into a mercury-like substance, and then solidified into silver-grey cups, forks, and bowls, as well as knives, in midair.
“Indeed, that’s it.”
Uncle explained, “What Lilith can’t change is the raw metal ore, but if they are already processed ironwares, she can change them.”
“And this, this is a knife.”
Uncle picked up a dinner knife and smiled, “Lilith, can you change these utensils into a sword?”
“I’ll try.”
Just as Uncle thought, Lilith could change metal, but the prerequisite was that it had already left its raw state.
“Clang.”
A standard iron sword fell to the ground, and Uncle laughed, “She may not help us forge iron, but if a weapon is damaged, Lilith can directly replace the old with new.”
But Lilith’s abilities were far more than these, her real impressive skill left even Uncle secretly admitting he was stumped.
Lilith could bless the People of Yatun, making them incredibly strong, and she could also curse their enemies, causing them to grow weaker.
Yet what was even more terrifying was Lilith’s Transfiguration Spell,
which was nothing short of a cheat-like skill…
