I Can See Health Bars in Real Life-Chapter 507 - 12: Card Draw (Part 2)

Her current persona is someone hailing from the Plant Department, widely known for Witchcraft at the Clock Tower, and one of the seven in Group A among Chaldea’s forty-eight Master candidates.

Since the persona is just that of a Master, she couldn’t possibly tear the enemy apart with her bare hands, so naturally, she needs to summon a Heroic Spirit. This can be considered a logical explanation... Anyway, she’s not planning to expose her true identity for now, nor is she going to leverage that terrifying Power, still maintaining the image of a fragile literature girl.

"This, actually, isn’t a big problem..." Gu Mo rubbed his chin in thought, but before he could finish, he was abruptly interrupted.

"Aaaaaah!! My gemstone—!!"

A scream with an astonishing presence suddenly resonated throughout the valley, and everyone instinctively turned towards the sound, noticing a black-haired girl at the entrance of the valley, dressed elegantly, boldly, and lavishly, exuding an exceptionally mesmerizing charm.

It was a compelling allure capable of catching one’s eye immeasurably and inspiring absolute trust and subconscious obedience to her will, a manifestation of the Goddess of Beauty’s Divinity, even when possessing a human as a Divine Spirit. However, due to the possessing person’s strong request, much of its Effect was removed, dropping from the original EX rank to B rank.

But this charm had already surpassed human Domain.

This Divine Qi... is it a Divine Spirit? No, it seems like a Divine Servant.

Akai Hinako instinctively became vigilant, carefully observing the black-haired girl appearing opposite her. Upon realizing the other party seemed neither an enemy nor a human, she breathed a sigh of relief, while gaining a deeper understanding of the nature of this Late Divine Era singularity.

——A Divine Servant appears so nonchalantly!

——She ultimately hadn’t participated in previous singularity travels, unaware of the circumstances, subconsciously using Chaldea’s standard experimental results as a norm.

"What do you mean your gemstone? Clearly, this is my gemstone, okay..." Gu Mo pouted, glaring at Ishtar, who was charging over like a whirlwind and fixating furiously on the Magic Circle composed of gemstone powder. He pointedly noted the inaccuracy in her words.

"Humph!" Ishtar gritted her teeth, her voice full of regret and heartbreak, "Why use gemstones!"

A customary visit ended in witnessing this guilt-laden scene, causing Lady Goddess to become somewhat agitated. Her gaze fixed intensely on the ground, staring at the Magic Circle design spanning two to three meters in diameter, which seemed not too large but certainly not small either.

Most importantly... this intricate and complex Magic Circle design, all the line paths were crafted using gemstone powder.

"Because I happen to only have gemstones suitable at hand, and aren’t these things meant to be used?" Gu Mo remarked calmly; there’s no sacrificial blood here for sure, nor did he want to use Demon Beast blood at risk of connecting directly with the Mother Goddess of Creation.

Furthermore, mercury was unavailable; among the top materials for crafting Magic Circles, two out of three were missed, naturally leaving grinding gemstones to powder as the remaining option.

"Nonsense, gemstones are supposed to be collected... Don’t you feel guilty squandering precious treasures like this?" Ishtar frantically waved her hands, those crystal-clear granules visibly consisted of the finest quality gemstones, now extravagantly wasted.

It wasn’t just one or two; with the entire Magic Circle engraved as such, the number of gemstones ground into powder wasn’t trivial. It was likely the amount she, a Goddess without fate with gems, couldn’t possibly gather by herself in a hundred years.

"Not at all, things are only meaningful when used, and if they need to be used, then they should be..." Gu Mo replied quite placidly; while he also possessed the player’s hoarding syndrome, it wasn’t to the extent of collecting without intent to use, keeping stuff for the sake of storing.

"Damn, wouldn’t it be better if you gave me all those gemstones directly!"

Ishtar fumed, her teeth aching with the urge to punch this guy outright; this was absolutely ridiculing her.

"Giving them to you? Not impossible..." Gu Mo placed a hand on his chin, earnestly considering, scrutinizing Ishtar from top to bottom, then glancing at Akai Hinako next to him, contemplating something.

"What are you plotting?" The black-haired girl watched him warily, "I warn you, I won’t agree to anything excessive."

"How could it be anything excessive..." Gu Mo beamed cheerily, "If you want the gemstones, how about signing a contract with us, becoming a Magical Girl?"

"What?"

Ishtar hesitated for a moment but quickly grasped his meaning, looking peculiarly at the Eastern Immortal before her, "You want to contract with me, becoming my Master? Aren’t you also a Servant?"

"Not me, it’s this Miss Akai Hinako..."

Gu Mo gestured to the literary glasses girl diligently listening to the side, who was startled and looked towards her, somewhat unresponsive.

Given her current persona as a pseudo-servant, she’s naturally unsuitable to undertake the Master’s role, and Kikyo probably wouldn’t get along with this overly spirited Lady Goddess, though they’re both archers... As for Hiri, better forget it, with the Demon Hunter Girl’s scant magic power—
