My Spells Are Pathetically Weak, So I Rely on Talismans to Multiply Their Power

[Wizard + Taoist] + [Cthulhu Mythos] + [Seafaring] + [Survival] + [Exploration] + [Single heroine] + [Pseudo-stat system]

His grandmother was a shaman, and his grandfather was a Taoist priest. Wang Chuan can’t perform Taoist arts; all he can do is draw talismans.

After becoming one of the Chosen and transmigrating to a Lovecraftian world, he starts from the very beginning with a little wooden boat. His warlock bloodline awakens, but it’s weak, so he modifies the scroll-crafting skill to make talismans. From then on, he goes further and further down the path of combining magic and talismans.

Parlor tricks + talismans = useful tricks

First-circle spells + talismans = catching your enemies off guard

Second-circle spells + talismans = defeating your foes

Third-circle spells + talismans = one-shot kills

Fourth-circle spells + talismans = winning against the odds

Fifth-circle spells + talismans = conquering cities and territory

Sixth-circle spells + talismans = even the gods keep their distance

Spells may be weak, but talismans make up for it.

Spells may be easy to get, but talismans are hard to come by.

Without his talismans, Wang Chuan might be a real coward. But when he reveals his trump card and activates his strongest talisman, even the gods will keep their distance.

Wang Chuan is determined to be a Taoist priest. As for the Old Ones, he says they’re nothing but particularly powerful evil spirits!

Spells too weak? Then I’ll double them with talismans!
