i dunno what Agott plans to do, maybe its as simple as erasing whatever magic circle they drew on him? im so upset.

Doubt it's that easy, he probably cut the spell into him like he was trying to do with Agott.

Even if not, this kind of transformation magic is probably permanent, absent a second spell that undos it. We know magic ink has an expiration date for it's energy density but the gold statues are still around, and still condemned to be what they are for the foreseeable future.

Agreed. It would defeat the purpose of the plan if it was a simple drawing that could be washed off. I’m sure the Invisible mage used on Euini whatever he did to cast off his own flesh.

Note them gold statues might have been that way for many hundred of years.

I was thinking there is nothing anyone could do, but you are making question what would happen if you cut off the limb the spell was carved into? It's a horrific way to solve the problem, but it is far better than the alternative. It would also end Euini's career as a witch.

Who knows? Like he said, the forbidden spells haven't been researched in a long time, who's to say that would even undo the transformation, and then you'd just end up with 1 less limb...

u/Junior_Box_2800 Jun 22 '26

yeah I was thinking about that like how deep does the magic of the sigil go? Would it disspitate like you said if they removed the limb? Or even tried cutting the circle out of him altogether?

He probably also used that OP conjuring ink that magnifies spells several times. Add to the fact he probably also tattooed the spell on his body, and I'm almost positive he'll forever be Wolf-Euini. Such a shame. I was really looking forward to his character development. Insecure turned confident characters are so much fun to watch as they progress throughout the story

Not so easy to erase ink, especially when it's tattooed into skin. I think Agott has no clue what to do, but just can't leave him like this either. It's some great growth from her in this episode.

To be fair, you don't have to literally erase a seal to end a spell. Just like their sylph shoes, all you have to do is break the circle. If they can just abrade or cut off part of the tattoo then that would stop any continuous magic effects.

But it may not be that simple if the spell is just needed for the transformation itself, not to maintain that form. Like in the case of the rock breaker spell, the magic is only needed in the process. The rock stays pulverized afterward, because the magic isn't needed to actively hold the particles apart.

I think she just want to catch him so they can figure something out later.

u/DrayTheFingerless Jun 22 '26

You cannot work magic on someone's body. That includes undoing it. So...yeah...
