3 [ Chapter - 3: Cheating The Magic System Using CYOA & Visitor ]

A simple yet wonder-filled City. That is the City of Raziel. Or how most people call It: The City Of Knowledge.

The City of Raziel is surrounded by vast neverending forests and meadows with plenty of open space. However If one would wander past the forests, they would see an enormous ocean of blue water surrounding them. The City's defenses are formidable, surviving a few wars against the Demon Kings, standing as the barrier around the Kingdom Of Ngozi, where they are located at.

Many Magus and Mages from various Kingdoms and lands travel all to Raziel for Knowledge and Insight. A place where the strong rule the weak. A City that follows the law of the jungle.

[*Knowledge is Power*]. This is what the City of Raziel believes. A simple yet harsh code, that gives birth to many powerful and creative people all around the world for generations.

' Damn, I already like this place.' Reading a book behind a wall of books on a table is an extremely beautiful-handsome young man(?). There are no visible sex characteristics; however, he is often mistaken for a young girl due to his beautiful and elegant appearance and soft-like honey voice, which could calm even the evilest of beings In the world. He(?) possesses pale yet creamy white skin and long elegant blue-silver hair past his butt and gorgeous pale golden eyes that are not that of the mortal plane. He wears a long black overcoat. Under the coat, he wears a black and gold kimono and black pants that his Mother had made for him, before letting him free In the world. Hanging from a chain around his waist is a white gem-filled Anti-Magic Mask, his parents created for him.

...Yes this is Seth Scáthach O'Rourke.

' Well, that was insightful.' Throwing the book back where It belongs, Seth's eyes glowed with mysterious emotions.

' Enough with history class, let's get down to business, at hand... More Magic spells and Rituals.' Picking up a simple yet diabolical black book, Seth smiled, reading the title: [*-Grade One-through-Four Demon Magic Spells - Written by: Pandora Von Abaddon, First Daughter Of The First Demon King-*].

' Holy hell, that old Grandma was not simple, as the former me once had thought.' With a slight shock expression, Seth's eyes flashed.

' Hm?' Hearing that faint genderless voice In his head, Seth's stare became sharper.

" You want me to open you?" He asked the book plainly, with an unusual sparkle In his eyes.

" Where do I sign?" Seth asked the book, with a 'friendly' and 'warm' smile on his face.

" Alright." Using his sharp sword-like black nails, he poked his finger, as they became smaller after doing so.

As his blood fell on the book, he soon heard vault locks opening In his head. Following that noise, is demonic letters appearing all over the book, with blood-red pentagrams materializing at each side of the book.

*Click!-Clang!*

*" Lḙ̵͈̒͝t's̴̥͙̆ hą̷͉̀ve̵͈͇͐̒ fṉ̷̈̿n, M̴͎̬͆ast̶͇̮̠͊͒́ḛ̸̣̀r̶̠̬̥̦͎̀."* With the sound of an M1 Garand, reloading, Seth's eyes widened hearing an otherworldly demonic seductive alluring young female voice, throughout his head.

Then as If obeying the voice, his head started filling up with a vast amount of Knowledge of Demon Magic.

'...So she granted me all four grades of Demon Magic spells... How Interesting~' Sorting out the spells In his mind, Seth smirked, a smirk filled with immoral and sinisterness.

Putting the black book down, he grabbed another one and grinned, feeling even more information fill his head.

' Naga Water Magic, Grade 1.'

*Shoosh!*

Tossing the book back onto the shelf, he touched two different color books.

' Asura Body-Strengthing Magic Technique, Grade 1... Siren Voice-Alluring Magic Technique, Grade 1.'

*!*

" Arg!" Holding his head in sudden pain, Seth's eyes flashed over and over again, like a computer downloading something.

" Too...much...Knowledge... for now." Knowing his limit, for now, Seth sighed as the pain faded away.

" Well...That was something." It felt like he was on ice for a whole month, while high at the same time, receiving Knowledge after Knowledge. Then like his mind is a library filled with books, he left the library after settling In his new Magic spells and Rituals, especially the Asura ritual.

*Knock-Knock-Knock!*

Breaking Seth out of his thoughts is abrupt the sound of someone knocking on his door.

Getting up from his chair, he made rapid twists and turns, as he found himself at the front desk, where is a sleeping Lisa, on his chair, drooling slightly.

' Same as ever.' Not even mad, he went to the dark wooden double doors and opened them.

" How may I help you?" Using his natural voice, which shows neither good nor bad Intentions, Seth smiled 'warmly'.

" Are you...S eth?" Miss pronouncing his simple name somehow, is a young man that has a slight demonic appearance. He has a tall, burly build. He possesses flame-like lightly wavy crimson hair from which two large jet-black horns protruded. He has a pair of iconic tear-like red markings that flow down from the bottom of his eyes over his cheeks. His eyes are incredibly sharp and fierce-looking and have an orange-red iris. He wears black clothing with a thick woolen collar, covered by dark red samurai armor. Hanging from his left hip is a simple plain Japanese-style katana.

" It's Seth, but yes. How may I help you?"

" Are you looking for a bodyguard?" The crimson-haired young man asked, hopefully.

" A bodyguard? Are you sure you are at the right place? All I am Is a simple Liberian..." Finding this off, Seth asked, still carrying his 'warm' smile.

" Yes, this is the right address. Here, have a look." Nodding, he pulled out a scroll and handed it to Seth.

Reading It, his eyes flickered seeing the crest at the bottom of It.

' It's that Grandma's magic crest...' He thought as he read the scroll In his head,' Find Seth at XXX-XXX-XXX, he'll know what to do. Also, If you are ever In need of money, ask Seth to become his personal Bodyguard. Because oh boy, he needs It.' Resting at the bottom of the scroll is a symbol of a normal-looking woman wearing a three-purple-gem crown.

Looking Into the hopeful eyes of the young man, he sighed In his head as he said plainly," Complete three Goblin hunts, then we'll talk, about the bodyguard thing."

" Yes Sir!" Bowing to Seth greatly, making the passing people look at him oddly, the young man ran off.

" Don't you need the...scroll back?" Glancing at the now gone young man, he groaned," Nevermind... I'm sure he'll come back for It."

" What?" Staring at the people looking at him, Seth let out emotionlessly.

"""... Beautiful...""" He heard all of them mumble, looking at him, and hearing his voice.

' Fuckin aye... It's not my problem I look like a trap. Blame the R.O.B that sent me here.' Getting annoyed, he walked Into his Library and shut up the door loudly, waking up the sleeping beauty that is Lisa.

" Oh! Enemies, where!?" She yelled out, as sparks of blue floating electricity appeared around her, In a frenzy.

" Nowhere, so sit your happy ass down, and do some work," Seth said, as the electricity around Lisa calmed down and disappear.

" Ugh... But I don't wanna~!" Childishly, she groaned out, laying her lovely face on an unknown book.

" Then, come with me to the restricted section and help me out."

" Restricted section!? You mean It!?" Hearing those two 'magic' words, Lisa shot up off the chair and ran to Seth, as she asked once more," Like, you Really mean It?"

" Sure do, so let's get a move one." Not waiting for an answer, he started walking back to his little hideout.

" AH! Don't leave me, Seth~!" Fearing she might lose Seth somehow, Lisa sprinted to him and held onto his black overcoat.

*Shoosh!*

With the sudden turn of harsh wind, coming from somewhere, she found herself surrounded by magic-filled books, of all colors and spells.

"... Heaven..."

" Mhm." Agreeing with his assistant, Seth sat on his soft wooden chair and smiled.

" Now get me these Books." Straight forward as ever, Seth ordered, with his 'friendly' and 'warm' smile, making Lisa's skin crawl with chills.

"...You don't get out a lot, do you?" Taking the long scroll, listed with Magic books and their location, Lisa said In deadpan.

" You know me too well." That was his sarcastic response.

"..." Shaking her head, she glanced at the list and started walking away doing her job.

" 20 cold coins, If you get back to me within a day, with all the books I have requested for."

*Zap!-Shoosh!*

Right when his sentence ended, he saw Lisa disappear In blue electricity sparks.

" Money makes the world go around...huh?" Mumbling such with a dark chuckle, Seth picked up the Demon Magic book and started reading, humming a lovely tune.
