It might be a disservice to his shishou teachings, but his use of 'Runic Symbols' was basically at the level of blindly copying. Except for the 'Ice' attribute Runic Symbols, he couldn't truly use them in actual combat. And his shishou seemed to have realized how specialized her disciple was, so she sealed the knowledge of the 'Runic Symbols' that Lancer hadn't learned into Lancer body.
Simply put, the current situation was that Lancer found he couldn't answer during an 'exam' and then flipped through the 'reference book'.
However, even with an 'open-book exam', a student who usually doesn't study much probably wouldn't know where the answer is even if given the outline. In the end, they can only flip through it from beginning to end, like Lancer. However, Lancer was lucky. He found a seemingly useful symbol halfway through.
"Perþro"
This is a very special Runic Symbol. Generally speaking, the origins of Runic Symbols are natural phenomena or some special animals in nature, but the origin of this symbol is the 'dice cup', or the cup for shaking dice.
According to his shishou teaching at the time, this symbol is very special. It does not have a definite effect. Simply put, it grants the user 'a new opportunity', just like shaking dice.
Naturally, Lancer didn't pay much attention to it, after all, from a certain perspective, no one who has never rolled more than 9 (out of 3 dice) is unlucky.
This also resulted in Lancer not having much research on this symbol, but after 'flipping through the book' this time, he realized that this symbol was not that simple.
This symbol was full of malice towards Lancer when used alone, but when used with other symbols, it had other abilities, such as representing 'secret'. Undoubtedly, Lancer was completely confused at this time, and perhaps he could figure out the source of the abnormality on the other party through 'it'.
Then Kaguya Houraisan saw the man in front of her summon a large box and then take out a strange magic wand from it.
"Are you a magician?"
"Uh... not really? I'm a Lancer."
After speaking, Lancer stopped talking nonsense and began drawing Runic Symbols on the tatami mat.
However, Kaguya Houraisan watched Lancer with an expression of watching a good show. Information about 'magicians' was also recorded in the archives of the Capital of the Moon, but in her impression, shouldn't the so-called magicians be a group of intellectual beings wearing cloaks and holding brooms or wands?
Could it be that the records of the Capital of the Moon were outdated? Are the magicians on the ground now muscular men 180cm tall, wearing armor and holding spears and long swords?
However, Lancer actions did arouse her interest.
Thus, Lancer carved several Runic Symbols on the tatami mat, and he was sweating profusely. These few Runic Symbols took him nearly a minute. If he dared to do this in combat, he would have been killed by the enemy countless times by now.
"Miss Kaguya, please?"
While speaking, Lancer placed his hand on the symbol, and Kaguya-hime looked out the window and then placed her palm on it...
——————
This time, in order to find out the secret of Kaguya-hime, Lancer carved several Runic Symbols.
"Perþro"
This symbol represents a secret, which is Lancer goal this time.
"Laguz"
The original meaning of this Runic Symbol is 'water', but it is also generally used to refer to women. This is to guide the first Runic Symbol, ensuring the target is Kaguya-hime.
"Ehwaz"
The original meaning of this is 'horse', but it is mostly used as a bond because it also represents 'trust' and 'bond'. This is to prevent him from hurting Kaguya-hime during the investigation. Of course, it also has the meaning of protecting himself.
"Ingwaz"
Finally, the Runic Symbol representing 'end', and also containing the meaning of 'safety'.
It could be said that Lancer put a lot of effort into being able to 'increase favorability' this time, especially since he considered this set of symbols for a long time.
Only, the poor student who was known as 'infuriating his Shishō to death' did not know that his Shishō, or rather, his shishou, deliberately cut out a part of the knowledge when teaching him Runic Symbols.
Why was this? It was very simple. It was because the disciples taught by Scáthach always seemed to be very strong in some strange areas, such as affinity with women, such as libido, such as...
There was no doubt that the Runic Symbol set Lancer chose had no logical problems.
Simply put, Lancer goal was 'the two of them working together to explore the secret of Kaguya-hime and succeeding safely'. However, the original meaning of Runic Symbols was 'divination', so how could there be 'absolute' divination in this world?
The meaning of each Runic Symbol will change according to the situation and the other symbols it is combined with. For example, Perþro, besides representing 'luck' and 'secret', also has other annotations such as 'nurturing new hope'. If the purpose of divination is a married woman, it can be used to divine the probability of her becoming pregnant...
Also, the basic meaning of Laguz is indeed 'water', and the extended meaning also includes 'woman', but it also represents 'unpredictability' and 'female intuition'. However, in some special sets of Runic Symbols, it also includes 'sexual impulse'.
Ingwaz originally referred to the Norse God of Fertility, representing harvest and safety. But it also has other meanings, such as 'health', 'strength', and 'sexuality'...
As for Ehwaz, it is the simplest. Lancer did not choose wrongly. Its existence is a bond, allowing some originally unsuitable symbols to connect. Normally, it has no extra meaning, simply representing loyalty and trust, but when paired with the other three... EMMMM, a catalytic effect appeared.
At this moment, Lancer, full of anticipation, and Kaguya Houraisan, who had looked at him for a while and confirmed that Lancer really had no ill intentions, placed their palms on the Runic Symbols on the tatami together ——————
As two different forces were injected into the Runic Symbols, strange light spots began to spread...
——————
Because of the guidance of the Runic Symbols, Lancer and Kaguya-hime entered a strange state of consciousness, and through the state of consciousness, Lancer also saw the true 'Kaguya-hime', a 'girl' curled up into a ball.
Although Lancer had not studied psychology, he could detect the abnormality in the other party.
'Damn it, what am I looking at? Don't forget the purpose this time...'
Shaking his head, Lancer continued to search for the abnormality on Kaguya-hime, and he really found something wrong. Strange pink smoke was swirling around Kaguya-hime body...
