Chapter 826: Infinite Chaos



With the first country finally convinced to pull its army away, the girls started heading to the next, hoping to finish this all in time. And while they were going, another huge battle was taking place in a faraway land, one being was about to prove a point.

Lucy waved her hand, sending a wave of Gojo's void at Boronos. "I want to go home, just get back to the grave." She shouted with a wide smile white on Gojo's body.

Boronos dodged the wave of the void and formed a counter. The attack looked slower than he expected from Gojo's power. As an undead expert in souls, he did notice that it wasn't Gojo, but someone else, it was the little girl who was running around the battlefield casting strange magic.

Boronos disappeared in a smokescreen of toxic necrotic gas and teleported to Lucy, grabbing her by the neck. ^Soul swapping magic is quite dangerous and useful. This little girl thinks getting his body is a boon; I'll prove it to be a curse. If I were to kill this body she'll die and He'll be locked in that fragile body of her. A

"My luck is coming back."

As expected, taking Gojo's body indeed gave Lucy a huge boost to her fighting power, but she had no idea about to control it to the fullest. She could use the basic powers of the void, unleashing it randomly with each swing of her arms, and she was still as tough but had no way of guessing how to compress matter or achieve anything that Gojo is known for.

Gojo stood in Lucy's body in the middle of the undead, looking at his hands with a passive face. ^I see...unlike us dragons, human skin doesn't emit that much mana, that's why need to use arcane focuses like staves, wands, and crystal balls. I'm used to using my scales to emit magic, and this body is quite fickle to deal with. I was probably asking too much wanting her to cast magic with her bare hands. ^

A large death knight approached him, he was the one that Lucy controlled before, and now he's angry. "You little bug. You dared to cast that magic upon me!" He growled, glaring down at Gojo.

"Wait a moment. I'm thinking." Gojo tapped the death knight's arm and kept thinking without a care in the world, leaving the eldritch monster baffled, flabbergasted, and utterly confused.

^The reason me and Arad rip our shirts when fighting is to expose as much of our scales as possible. That makes it easier to cast magic as we can output more mana at once. I can do that now to increase my throughput, but that increase would be about nothing, and Lucy would kill me later...^ He lifted his hands, ^How about this.^

The death knight behind him growled and swung his sword, trying to slash him in half.

CLANG! The thing that fell wasn't Gojo{Lucy}'s head, it was the death knight's arm. "Didn't I tell you to wait?" Gojo stared back at the now terrified death knight. His output lowered by a lot, but he's still a dragon, even though bound in a weak human body. Just like how Arad was in Merlin's labyrinth, losing the majority of his draconic power is forcing Gojo to grow more efficient with magic.

Gojo smiled, "I see, wild magic only triggers when a spell isn't cast perfectly. Most wizards only achieve 70-80% quality on their spells, not all fireballs are the same."

Since Gojo is only working with a minuscule amount of magic, he can watch it all and make sure his cast is always perfect, preventing the random wild magic from activating even in this necrotic magic-infested area.

"So..." In the ninth second, Gojo intentionally failed a spell for a wild magic activation, and he got one random effect. Strangely enough, he didn't hit the jackpot but hit the same spell that Lucy hit. Swapping souls with someone he can see for ten seconds.

He could feel the magic about to rush out of his eyes, and he tried to hold it back. Like a sneeze, holding it was annoying, but possible for him. One second passed and he kept staring at his own body in the distance. The moment he swapped back to his body after Lucy's first cast ended, she went back to her body, and the spell that wild magic that Gojo was holding got unleashed, swapping them back again in the blink of an eye.

Gojo intentionally extended the duration of the swap; he needed more time to test something. But in the moment of the swap, Boronos managed to land a huge hit on Lucy who was confused after getting swapped out and back in. "Hope she doesn't die."

Gojo put his hands together, a smile crossing his face as his eyes burned with a blue flame of magic. The color of mana is blue and that is what seeps from his eyes, he's preparing to cast several spells at once.

To save on mana, Gojo cast several useless spells that only emit a small amount of mana and do nothing, but activate the wild magic if they failed and he indeed made them fail.

Lucy looked down with a sad face, "How could he use my power better than me?"

"You said he abused your wild magic, I say he abused your body to the limit. Humans have unconscious limiters on their bodies, so they won't damage or kill themselves." Liliana smiled. "I'm sure you can pull off what he did, but you're most likely to stop when it gets too painful. Gojo can push through the pain better than what most people can,"

Liliana extended her hand to her, "Can I get a finger?"

"Why?" Lucy gave extended her hand.

Liliana started pushing down with her nails on Lucy's finger, making her cry, "It hurt

Liliana!"

"Gojo won't flinch from just this, try to ignore it and hit that pot in the wind with a wind

spell."

"I'll try....AWAW! Stop, I can't focus!"

"This is the point. Gojo occasionally throws you to fight monsters alone for you to gather

experience like this. Soon, you'll get used to pain and exhaustion." Liliana giggled. "Just take

it slowly. Stand proud, you are strong."

CRACK! The door tore off its hinges as Gug rushed in, "Lucy cried!" She looked at her with a

worried face.

"I'm fine, Gug. You don't need to worry," Lucy looked behind her, "Did Gojo leave?"

"Yeah." Liliana replied.

"I punched him." Gug nodded with enthusiasm.

"He said that he has to go. Three large divine signals moved out of Croc city and are heading

in the direction of Arad's wives. He wanted to investigate it." Liliana looked at the window

with a worried face.
