-Killed.
Tohno Shiki was overwhelmed by the terrifyingly real feeling of being killed.
But who could he blame?
Tohno Shiki had killed Arcueid once.
In that case, it was only natural for the the other party to seek revenge.
In fact, yesterday, Arcueid's only thought was to kill Tohno Shiki. As soon as she found him, she launched an attack.
Now, Arcueid still had not given up the idea of killing Tohno Shiki.
In response, Fang Li calmly interjected from the side.
"Regardless of the grievances between the two of you, it's best not to start a fight here, otherwise it will be very troublesome."
After all, there is a mixed-blood non-human in this house.
If Arcueid were to go on a rampage here, it would probably escalate into an inevitable massacre.
"Besides, with your current condition, you can't afford to move recklessly, right?"
Fang Li looked at Arcueid and spoke calmly.
"Even though you were ambushed and killed, if you couldn't avoid being dismembered by that person even in your prime, trying to fight now in your severely injured and power-depleted state could very likely result in you being counter-killed."
The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception inherently carries such a threat.
And Arcueid no doubt understands this.
At that moment, Arcueid stared directly at Tohno Shiki and asked a question in a situation where Tohno Shiki couldn't help but swallow nervously.
"How did you do it?"
The sudden question made Tohno Shiki react a bit slowly.
Seeing Tohno Shiki like that, Arcueid emphasized her question.
"I'm asking you how you killed me."
It is quite 'normal' to ask this question.
After all, Arcueid is the Princess of the True Ancestors. Forget humans, even beings of the same rank as her would find it difficult to kill Arcueid.
But yesterday, Arcueid was killed by Tohno Shiki in a clean and proper manner.
There was no doubt about it.
"Judging from your appearance, it doesn't seem like you use magic. Could it be that you used some secret treasure from the Age of Gods?"
Arcueid glared at Tohno Shiki as she asked this.
Her look, more akin to an angry kitten puffing her cheeks rather than a blood-drinking vampire, was extremely cute.
But that was really the only remaining question in Arcueid's mind.
"You should at least let me understand how I died."
Arcueid demanded.
"I've never been cut into 17 pieces before, let alone by a human."
This was said by a True Ancestor Princess who lived for eight hundred years.
Tohno Shiki's expression became somewhat contradictory as he heard this.
Someone he had killed and even dismembered had not only resurrected but was now asking him, "How did you kill me?" and "Let me die knowing how. Surely, no one had ever experienced such a thing before.
However, Tohno Shiki couldn't possibly refuse Arcueid's request.
No matter what, he had killed that girl.
He must bear this responsibility.
However...
"But I don't know how to explain it," Tohno Shiki said, scratching his head and hesitating. "Fang Li mentioned that I seem to possess something called the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Arcueid's breathing stopped abruptly.
Shortly after, Arcueid's gaze towards Tohno Shiki changed.
It was no longer filled with hostility, but a look as if she was staring at a monster.
"...Are you speaking the truth?"
Arcueid spoke in a deep voice.
"The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, do they really exist?"
Seeing Arcueid's reaction, Tohno Shiki was completely confused.
Only Fang Li understood that this reaction was completely normal.
The so-called Mystic Eyes of Death Perception were indeed such an existence.
However, to really explain it would probably take a long time.
So, Fang Li spoke to Tohno Shiki.
"Do you know what Magecraft is?"
Hearing Fang Li's words, Tohno Shiki was slightly taken aback.
"Magecraft?" Tohno Shiki said uncertainly, "Are you referring to the Mage performed in circus shows?"
"You're probably the only person in the world who would confuse Magecraft with stage magic tricks," Fang Li laughed before he continued. "Magecraft is the collective term for behaviors that artificially replicate or reproduce mysteries and miracles. To put it in a way you can understand, it's a kind of magic power."
However, in this world, Magecraft and Magic are completely different things.
Because Magecraft refers to the mysteries that humans can achieve through personal power, replicating phenomena that are otherwise possible with tools in miraculous ways.
For example, creating fire- humans can use tools to create fire, but a Magecraft practitioner uses the magical power of their body to construct techniques and rituals that create fire out of nothing, similar to magicians and spiritual practitioners in the previous world.
However, Magic refers to miracles that cannot be achieved by humans.
Therefore, nowadays, there are countless forms of Magiccraft, but there are only five types of Magic, and only four Magicians can use them, making them a miracle among miracles.
"And Mystic Eyes turn the eyes that are supposed to receive messages from the outside world into things that actively affect the outside world. They can use magic by sight alone, without any techniques or rituals," Fang Li explained.
"In other words, Mystic Eyes can cause all targets within their line of sight to be affected by the Magecraft contained within the eyes. As long as the Mystic Eyes see the target, the target will be trapped in the Magecraft without any defense. Thus, the possession of Mystic Eyes is proof that one is an excellent practitioner of Magecraft.
"The Mystic Eyes of Death Perception is such an existence."
As Fang Li casually explained, Arcueid couldn't help but interject.
"What do you mean 'such an existence'? That's not the same thing at all."
Arcueid looked sharply at Tohno Shiki.
"Generally speaking, artificial Mystic Eyes have at most abilities like charm and suggestion. If they have powerful abilities like binding, coercing, contracting, burning, illusion, misfortune, or even petrifying, these are innate talents that even Magecraft cannot replicate, and they belong to the special cases of Mystic Eyes."
"And the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception are a special case among special cases, a miracle that even myths find hard to replicate."
Arcueid's look at Tohno Shiki became sharper.
"Having these eyes that can directly perceive death makes one similar to a Grim Reaper. How can it be so simple?"
"If modern Magecraft practitioners knew that such eyes existed here, they would swarm like bees to honey, doing whatever it takes to obtain them, no matter the cost."
