: 161. “Sacred Position Achievement”_3<div>


    This contract is eternal. It will persist indefinitely. The contract will be invalid only when one party is deceased, or both parties agree to terminate the contract.


    Once the contract bes invalid, all the knowledge Nnd Lee had shared with Mabel would be erased by the contract. To some extent, this prevents instances where the buyer pays first and kills the seller afterward to regain their assets.


    Mabel sat on the sofa and took a deep breath:


    “Alright, Ray Lee. The contract has been established. There are some gold coins left in the manor’s treasure vault. If your knowledge satisfies me, I will fulfill your request.”


    Soul contracts alsoe in various ranks.


    The contract signed by Nnd Lee and Mabel is the lowest-ranked one, without the “Soul Perception” effect.<div>


    The rank of the contract has no impact on the penalties and efficiency of the contract, only affecting the additional effects brought by the contract.


    “Soul Perception” is one of those additional effects.


    Other than that, there are the “soul positioning” which continually locates both parties of the contract; the “soul attribution” where, after the death of one party, their soul bes the property of the other party; the “soul division”, where any soul fragments obtained by either party must be shared with the other party, and so on.


    To create a soul contract with the “Soul Perception” effect, Nnd Lee needs to infuse a full thousand points of Soul Strength into the contract.


    Before obtaining the River of Mind: The Lower Scroll, Nnd Lee had indeed intended to do so.


    But at this point today, Nnd Lee has found a mental magic substitute for “Soul Perception” from the River of Mind: The Lower Scroll.


    This magic spell is the famous “Mind Induction”, which allows Nnd Lee to transmit mental information to the target of the spell.


    “Mabel.”


    Nnd Lee’s voice resonated in the depths of Mabel’s mind, ethereal and illusory, like a distant call carried by the mountain wind.


    Mabel shuddered slightly and stared wide-eyed at Nnd Lee, her mouth involuntarily opening a crack.


    “You…you’ve actually mastered this magic spell…”


    Mabel’s eyes seemed somewhat dazed. She recognized what this magic spell was. The sudden disy of Nnd Lee’s mental magic prowess left her stunned.<div>


    Raising his index finger to his lips and keeping his mouth closed, Nnd Lee spoke through “Mind Induction” alone:


    “Empty your mind and do not be wary of me. As my customer, your body, mind, and soul are protected by the soul contract, and I shall not carry out any action detrimental to you. From now on, we shallmunicate using our minds alone, which can prevent leaving any trace of our transaction in the material world.”


    Messia raised her hand and pressed it against her chest, covered by her silky coat.


    After striving to calm her inner turmoil, she said in her heart:


    “I’m wearing a magic pendant that resists mental magic. Logically, this pendant should react to your ‘Mind Induction’, so why is there no response?”


    Without needing Nnd Lee’s answer, Messia came up with one herself:


    “I understand now! Your mental magic prowess is truly astonishing! Although my pendant is a high-grade magic tool, your mental magic prowess is even higher, possibly even at the Saint-level. That’s why you can bypass the protection of the pendant and cast ‘Mind Induction’ on me!”


    Nnd Lee listened with a stunned expression.


    Messia has a high-grade magic pendant protecting her mental magic on her body?!


    Oh dear.


    How would he know this…


    Where was this pendant hidden?<div>


    Nnd Lee scanned the bulging full moons and the fair neck of the woman, and faintly saw a silver ne under the cor of her clothing.


    Targeting the short section of the ne inside the cor and casting Deconstruction, the corners of Nnd Lee’s mouth twitched imperceptibly.


    It was indeed a high-grade magic pendant. Not only could it resist mental magic, but it could also protect Messia’s soul. It was probably due to the existence of this ne that Messia was immune to the alien space noise while inside the pollution zone.


    Now this was awkward.


    Respecting the principle of not looking where it was inappropriate, Nnd Lee never paid close attention to the specific details of women and failed to notice the existence of the magic pendant in a timely manner.


    If he had known earlier that Messia was wearing such a magical item, he would have asked her to remove the pendant first before casting “Mind Induction”.


    But the question was, why didn’t that pendant respond to his “Mind Induction”?


    Nnd Lee checked his own spell list.


    His “Mind Induction” had just been obtained not long ago, with a 10%pleteness level and a Level 1 rating.


    A Level 1 “Mind Induction” is only effective for targets within three meters of him. When leveling up, one can choose between strengthening the sensing range or increasing the number of targets sensed.


    Most importantly, written clearly on the panel of “Mind Induction”, this is just a high-rank mental magic spell, not a Saint-level spell.


    In theory, it should not be able to bypass the high-rank magic pendant…<div>


    Could it be because my mental magic is immune to the bacsh of magic?!


    Nnd Lee’s heart skipped a beat.


    He consumed some Energy Points to deconstruct Messia’s magic pendant.


    A magic effect appeared in the Deconstruction Results.


    [Magic Effect]


    [Name] Reflect Mental Magic


    [Level] 70


    [Type] Passive Skills


    [Charge Count] 70/70


    [Effect]


    When the wearer of the magic pendant is affected by any mental magic, the pendant will automatically reflect the mental magic, causing mental magic bacsh to the caster.


    So that’s how it is… Nnd Lee secretly nodded, understanding the reason now.<div>


    Normally, when a Mental Wizard casts mental magic, they will also be affected by it. This is the magic bacsh that every Mental Wizard cannot bypass.


    During the Harmless Deconstruction of the Spell Blueprints, the Deconstruction Technique removed the bacsh effect of the mental magic.


    Nnd Lee originally thought that the “bacsh effect” removed by the Deconstruction Technique only referred to the magic bacsh he would suffer when casting mental magic.


    Now it seems that the removed bacsh effect also includes the bacsh effect formed when mental magic is reflected.


    Awesome, System.


    Turns out that when I cast mental magic, I won’t even be afraid of magic reflection. You’re really something, System.


    Nnd Lee gave a thumbs up in his heart.


    He steadied his mind, and with a calm andposed demeanor, he disyed a profound and unpredictable image in front of Mabel.


    Nnd Lee nodded slightly and spoke through his mind:


    “Yes, ma’am. I do have some aplishments in mental magic. Now let’s get to the point.”


    Mabel stared at Nnd Lee, her eyes sparkling, and involuntarily brought a trace of awe into her gaze.


    A male wizard with saint-level mental magic aplishments was sitting right in front of her, and was even willing to lower his posture for equalmunication and paid knowledge sharing.<div>


    Just this honor alone was enough to make Mabel’s heart throb incessantly.


    Why was she being valued so much by the other party?


    Was it because of her wealth?


    Definitely not!


    It must be her unintentional expression of thirst for knowledge that caught the other party’s attention!


    When she thought about the terrifying aspect of Saint-level mental magic, Mabel’s awe in her heart increased:


    “No wonder he was chosen by Denise Green to be her Contractor. Even I am a little tempted…”


    “Ahem, ma’am, our ‘Mind Induction’ has not been interrupted yet.”


    Nnd Lee awkwardly touched his nose.


    Mabel was first taken aback, then her cheeks rose with redness that spread to the roots of her ears…


    As an elegant woman like a young married woman, her blushing face had its unique charm.


    ‘Mind Induction’ has this disadvantage.


    Because the constant chatter in people’s minds is considered mental activity, both parties can clearly sense each other’s mental activities during ‘Mind Induction’.


    However, there is an exception. Nnd Lee’s mental activity of thinking about the “bacsh effect” does not transfer to Mabel.


    Nnd is protected by the System, and none of his internal thoughts will be transmitted.


    Not only that, but any information rted to the System will also be blocked by it and will absolutely not be leaked in any way or through any channel.


    Nnd Lee can’t even write down the words “Deconstruction Core System” with pen and paper, let alone reveal the existence of the System via Soul Perception and psychic sense.


    It was the conclusion he reached after getting the ‘Mind Induction’ spell and repeated experiments with Denise Green.
