Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

Benjamin's face was full of helplessness. He walked towards the two people, but Esther stood there without moving, holding the rabbit tightly behind her. Her hair began to glow slightly again.

Benjamin did not make any threatening move. He just grabbed a cookie from the plate and took a very cautious bite: "I have to say, this cookie is much sweeter than I expected, and the tingen cake is even sweeter." Okay. But you seem to like it very much. At least you accepted this little gift from me, so don’t be so hostile."

He held the biscuit in his mouth, smiled gently and politely at Esther, and walked out of the room briskly.

Esther's expression had always been indifferent. The moment Benjamin stepped out of the room, light spots scattered all over her head, quickly sifting through the entire room, including the rabbit who didn't know why.

When he saw those bright lights penetrating his body, the rabbit looked confused and surprised. He stared closely at the chaotically rotating light spots until they all returned to Esther's head.

"This is..." As soon as Rabbit's emotion came out, he immediately shut up. It was obvious that this was also Esther's special ability. He felt that he was obliged to keep the other person secret.

Benjamin did leave, and he did not leave any backup in the room. It seemed to confirm his purpose, to have a serious talk with Esther and extend an invitation.

But what's wrong with him walking east and west? Are you used to stealing?

"It's okay." Esther patted Rabbit's back, but she didn't want to sit on the sofa anymore, nor did she want to touch the easy chair, "He has left."

Rabbit nodded as if understanding, and then got excited again: "Wait, he has been hiding in my body just now? Then I won't be dangerous to you?"

The anger in Esther's heart gradually subsided, and she smiled and said: "No, we can rest assured now."

Rabbit sat back on the sofa in confusion and rubbed his belly twice: "As long as there is no danger..."

Esther had left spots of light around the room, but she did not go back to the room. Instead, she sat at the desk and took out a pen and paper: "I want to write a letter to a friend, can you wait a moment? ?”

The rabbit nodded, but he didn't stay quiet for long before he picked up the biscuit he had eaten before and bit into it.

Esther looked at this scene from the corner of her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief. She held her pen and carefully selected her words to ask Klein about the situation at the tarot meeting—especially why he needed "psychological counseling."

Halfway through the letter, the words of "The Fool" echoed in my ears more and more clearly, "If any of you are in need."

Esther's hand holding the pen became tighter and tighter. She always had an inexplicable premonition that the "Fool" was looking through the gray fog at that time.

Such a simple hunch should not be ignored and waited. Esther glanced at Rabbit, who was flipping through the magazine quickly, pausing only on the illustrations. After we go to Pulitzer Harbor to settle the boy, and after attending the meeting with Benjamin, we can go to Backlund to meet "Norns" and "Dwayne Dantès"...

There’s no need to bother The Fool, I can just meet Miss Justice offline.

Just as Klein thought, he soon received a letter from the black puppy. The puppy with an evil red light burning in its eye sockets lay at his feet, obediently waiting for Klein to finish writing a brief reply. .

The skylark flew over from the shelf again and stopped on the table. It jumped across the letter paper and stepped on the wet handwriting on it, leaving a few vague paw prints.

"Oh? Is there something you want to tell her?" Klein knew that the bird was very smart and could understand most of his words, and the longer it stayed away from Esther, it seemed to gradually have clearer ideas.

Such characteristics reminded Klein again of the situation when he was treated with the "Heart Nightmare Candle", but the behavior of "Norns" was obviously not a split personality, or it seemed to be similar to Esther but not the same. .

And Esther's head was filled with such half-real and half-imaginary substances... Klein felt horrified at the thought that they might be "alive" or even have the ability to communicate with others.

Skylark heard Klein's words, but just jumped to the other side, chewed the letter sent by Esther twice, and then lowered its originally raised tail in disappointment.

"I understand. Do you want to see her? Then I will also write this question on the letter paper and ask her when she will come to Backlund." Klein said with a smile, but Skylark just barked at him twice and squatted down. Next to him, he was waiting for Klein to finish writing his reply.

In the letter, Klein responded to the question of his battle with "split personality" and once again reminded Esther to be wary of the existence of various pollutions. However, when he thought that Esther had lived behind the Chanis Gate for a period of time, Klein felt that It's because I worry too much.

Esther has a strange endurance in this regard.

However, Klein still spoke resolutely, persuading Esther to make an appointment for a "psychological consultation", so that "The Fool" could give them shelter above the gray fog, not only to protect Esther, but also to protect "Justice" .

After all, the only one who can suppress Zoya is "The Fool". However, regarding this particularity, Klein could only vaguely mention it, and it was not convenient to explain it to Esther.

Finally, Klein added a few more lines:

"Norns is still very well-behaved. To be honest, he is so smart that he is no longer like an ordinary bird. The lady who taught me how to dance even praised him because he liked to sing along with the music, leaving her with A deep impression.

"It seems to miss you a little, and it actively left its 'handwriting'. When you finish what you are doing, you will be welcome to my mansion. It will be very happy. Of course, so will I."

Klein quickly browsed through the written letter. There was no need to sign it, Esther would know who wrote to her. Just when Klein was about to fold the letter, the skylark chirped anxiously.

Klein immediately stopped what he was doing: "What's wrong?"

The skylark shook its wings vigorously twice, gesticulating up and down and jumping anxiously. It pointed at Klein and then at itself, and then flapped its wings on its chest.

The next moment, it opened its mouth and let out an extremely harsh and high-pitched singing voice from its throat, mixed with a tinnitus-like noise: "Coax Ji——"

"Hush, hush! Don't imitate Alger's singing here!" Klein quickly reached out and covered Skylark's head. He was so frightened that he almost broke out in a cold sweat. Of course, it might have been stimulated by the too bad singing.

For people who do not have extraordinary spiritual abilities, this singing will directly have a spiritual shock effect. There are many ordinary servants in this house, so Klein is naturally nervous.

It seems that Norns is becoming more and more difficult to raise. He needs to take back his words of "very well behaved"!

When Klein and "The Hanged Man" Alger Wilson went to the primitive island in the sea for adventure, Knowns actually sneaked into his pocket and hid in Klein's suitcase dressed by Gehrman Sparrow. On Ryan.

What made Klein feel strange afterwards was that he didn't notice at all at the time. It wasn't until Alger started singing that the skylark suddenly popped out, and then...

Then it learns some kind of "new skill."

It was then that Klein realized that Norns could "talk".

However, it does not have a complete language system and cannot remember ordinary communication terms. However, if it is a language or voice that contains extraordinary power, it can imitate it, but the voice it repeats will always be distorted in the hum.

It won't have the special characteristics of "extraordinary language", like a very poor babbling, and it seems to have been screened and rendered harmless by the Norns themselves.

But there is nothing better to learn than singing "The Hanged Man"! ?

Klein sighed heavily, and the skylark that he covered his mouth chirped twice before becoming quiet.

Klein put down his hand: "No, you must not tell her about going to that desert island."

The skylark flapped its wings unwillingly several times and almost slapped the pen on Klein's desk to the ground.

Klein shook his head more firmly: "Absolutely not, that island is extremely dangerous, and we shouldn't involve her, even if that voice was..."

While Klein and Alger were exploring the primitive island and harvesting the "Tyrant" card, as well as various extraordinary characteristics and materials, they saw the image of the Creator being eaten in the tomb hall of the ruins of the "Ancient Sun God" church. mural.

But this exploration did not go in depth, because a sigh came from the depths of the church that made the two of them feel oppressed.

At that time, the voice sighed: "Fate's favor..."

Klein quickly used the "Planeswalker" grazing in "Creeping Hunger" to activate the "teleport" ability, pulling Alger and quickly leaving the island.

But the mysterious island disappeared directly behind the two of them.

Klein stopped his rambling memories and looked at Skylark on the table again: "I know you thought that thing was strange. You were curious about the sound, and it hovered around us several times. I remember it."

Skylark nodded repeatedly and scratched the letter paper under Klein's hand with his paw.

"No, it's precisely because you were attracted by that sound that I can't tell Esther about it. Otherwise, she will definitely want to investigate and explore the location of the island regardless." Klein clicked on Skylark's finger. On the forehead, the bird let out a short chirp.

"She will only want to take risks when the time comes. The voice that can make both Alger and I feel a strong sense of oppression must be a terrifying high-level extraordinary person. If Esther goes to communicate, there is a high probability that she will be sent to her door. Then It will only make things worse, and I’m not even sure I can get her out.”

Klein folded the letter paper, stuffed it into the envelope, and simply sealed it with wax.

Skylark flew off the table and landed on the ground, face to face with the black puppy who could only swallow it in one mouth.

Skylark shouted twice timidly and kept fluttering its wings next to the puppy.

Klein leaned over and patted the puppy on the head: "Please help me give this letter to Esther. Don't worry about the bird, and don't tell Esther what we said, okay?"

The puppy looked at the anxious Skylark, then at Klein, nodded proudly, grabbed the envelope and jumped into the crack in the spiritual world.

The skylark kicked off the ground, flew back to the bird stand where it was originally, and turned its back in the direction of Klein angrily.
