Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

Lily of the Valley Street, Apartment No. 7, Room 603.

Galvin held a bright red bow tie in his hand, but there were many darkened blood spots on it, as if it had been speckled with spots.

When the crow took off again, Galvin raised the tie in his right hand to his mouth. While pushing his left hand forward, he uttered an ancient Hermetic language: "Flying is prohibited here."

The crow fell in response. He jumped on the back of his chair and jumped onto the desk, knocking over several historical and mythological books. Between the spread pages, you could see Esther's beautiful small characters making various annotations.

Xiao Qi didn't even have time to spit out Esther's hair and regain his extraordinary abilities. It originally just wanted to find Xiao Wu and try to exchange the important information it had recently obtained. There were no lights on in the house and no one was there, so it opened the window and flew away. Come in.

But I didn't expect that an extraordinary person with a magical item with the "Judge" ability would be ambushing here!

Galwin read out another restriction and pushed his hand forward again: "No birds are allowed to move here."

Oops!

The crow's body was stiff on the desk, its wings still half-open in the threatening state.

Calvin put down the tie and smiled very proudly: "Fortunately, I have the secret weapon that the teacher gave me. Originally, I was waiting here for the little sheep or Mr. Teacher, but I didn't expect there would be a more surprising visitor."

Calvin gathered the crow in his hand. He pushed his glasses upward, revealing his amber eyes. The eyes were too gentle and calm, as if watching anything happening in the world would not cause any fluctuations: "I My teacher told me that the audience should not become actors. But I have always felt that the most outstanding audience should be the best actors."

There was a chill in the crow's dark eyes.

"I'm watching everyone in this apartment, enjoying my stage. And you're always close to the window of Sixty Three, and of course I'll notice too. Skylarks are common in neighborhoods, but crows are common in cemeteries and shouldn't be Appearing so frequently in Lily of the Valley Street.”

Calvin's hands became harder and harder: "Aren't you going to speak? I know you can speak."

Someone kicked on the unlocked door and stepped into the room.

"Let it go!"

"Don't come in!"

Esther and Xiao Qi shouted at the same time. Esther was still holding the boning knife she had just brought from the public kitchen, and pointed the bright tip of the knife at Calvin, who had a narrow smile.

Galvin shrugged and loosened the pressure on his fingers slightly, allowing Xiao Qi to breathe more smoothly: "You can actually come back alive, little sheep. Are you too powerful, or is Mr. A also passive and slow down?"

"Maybe I run faster," Esther gritted her teeth and replied, "Please let my friend go."

"A dark pet like a crow is not suitable for you," Calvin seemed not to hear Esther's anger. His words were very casual, as if the two were chatting about whether the weather would get colder tomorrow. , "Not to mention that this is an extraordinary animal. I will hand it over to where it belongs for you."

"It's my friend, not my pet!"

Galvin shrugged: "It seems you don't agree. This is really difficult to handle."

Esther took a deep breath: "I don't want to be an enemy of you or Norn, and I don't want to cause trouble! I will leave here after tonight. Father Utravsky is downstairs. If you don't stop, Your identity as an Extraordinary One will also be revealed.”

"From your tone, Mr. Teacher is still alive." Calvin frowned, and his originally peaceful eyes finally fluctuated due to the accident. "You are really amazing, Luna. It's like you are in a book with only words. The graffiti illustrations that popped up on my novel distorted my script.”

Calvin tilted his head and didn't know what he was thinking. After a few seconds of silence, he suddenly threw the crow in his hand towards Esther. Esther's eyes were attracted and she quickly stretched out her arms to lift her stiff body. Xiaoqi held her in her arms.

Galwin took advantage of this short moment to raise the red tie to his mouth again. While pushing forward with his left hand, another ancient Hermetic word came out from his lips: "Imprisonment."

Esther had no time to dodge.

As soon as her feet lifted off the ground, the transparent viscous liquid gathered and condensed from the air. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a huge water ball and enveloped Esther, restraining all movements and freezing her in place.

Calvin was not as relaxed and comfortable as he seemed. After seeing that Esther was really trapped, he breathed a sigh of relief. His combat experience cannot be said to be rich. Instead of finding out Esther's details through fighting, he chose to imprison the opponent directly to ensure that the final blow could land accurately on Esther.

"What a pity, little sheep, I really don't want to kill you."

A weird buzzing sound sounded, the sound was hazy and unreal, like tinnitus that can only be heard when half asleep and half awake.

Esther's eyes turned from gray to black faster than the imprisonment took effect, and then a gentle light flashed through her eyes, like a bright meteor cutting through the shadows of the room. Esther's hair fluttered, and light spots continued to escape from her hair, carrying the buzzing sound of the same frequency, vibrating chaotically and disorderly.

Esther's hair became half silver and half white, and she consciously controlled the number of these external points of light to avoid over-consumption.

The invisible imprisonment surrounding Esther also trembled. As more and more light spots flew out, the scene around her began to arch, and the inside of the imprisonment was rippled more and more violently by those light spots. It keeps boiling like water being boiled, and I will soon be unable to hold on.

Galwin immediately recovered from this change, his body tensed, and his free left hand clenched into a fist.

Just before he wanted to wave his arm and open his mouth, Esther's right hand broke free from its confinement, let go of the knife in her hand, and gave Galvin a weak grab.

The person who pumped her fist and said the ancient Hermetic language became Esther: "Death!"

Of course, nothing happened.

Galvin was stunned for a few seconds as his idea was stolen. When he came to his senses, Esther had already picked up the bone-cutting knife again. The imprisoned power around her has been completely shattered by the violently rotating light spots. Those fireflies-like light danced throughout the room, like a storm of stars.

Calvin just stared blankly at the wonderful scene in the room and said softly: "It's so beautiful, this is really..."

Esther touched the wardrobe beside her and stuffed Xiao Qi, who was still unable to move, in her arms, leaving her left hand free again.

As soon as he saw her feet and rushed towards her, Calvin immediately waved his arms: "Whip!"

Esther withstood the blow, and a bloody mark that looked like a whip extended from her shoulder to her right arm, and the skin was torn open, but she still held the sharp knife firmly and did not let go.

"flow--"

Before Calvin could finish reading, Esther's left hand opened and closed rapidly, and the remaining half of the word popped out of her mouth: "Let it go!"

But this time, Galvin just blinked from being sluggish to fully awake, and then before Esther's sharp knife was completely handed to his throat, Galvin once again pronounced the word: "Exile!"

Esther seemed to have been hit by an invisible impact. She swung her arm hard, but it only scraped against Calvin's cuffs. Her whole body flew backwards, and the distance she had just closed was pulled away in an instant. The room was already small, and the back of Esther's head hit the half-length mirror hard, and warm liquid dripped from the back of her head.

But Esther smiled. It was the first time since she stepped into this room that her lips curled up.

Calvin slowly lowered his head and looked at his right hand. His palm was empty.

This is the most basic thing about being a "stealer" - stealing something that belongs to the other party without the target realizing it.

The blood-stained red tie was tightly held in the palm of Esther's left hand.

The sharp knife was just a cover from the beginning. Esther's purpose was to close the distance and then steal unexpectedly. Calvin had previously thrown Xiao Qi to attract Esther's attention, but now Esther used a weapon to attract his attention, returning his psychological tricks intact.

The only difference is that the overall situation has been decided.

"The ban here is lifted."

The moment Esther finished speaking, the invisible barrier covering the room dissipated, and a crow with explosive feathers rushed out of the closet and clawed at Galvin's face with its sharp claws.

Galvin subconsciously waved his arms, but only protected his left eye. Three bloody mouths were left on his right eye, causing Galvin to scream in agony. Xiao Qi turned over in the air, avoided Galvin's arm trying to grab it, and landed lightly back on Esther's uninjured left shoulder.

Esther panted slightly, watching Calvin half-kneeling on the ground while covering his bleeding right eye. Neither of them made any further movements for a while.

Galvin's still intact eye was gradually turning into a sharp point, and he lay on the ground, letting out a suppressed groan of pain.

"He's on the verge of losing control, hurry up! Just use that magical item to kill him!" Xiao Qi urged.

Esther shook her head and hummed the tune of "Birch Forest" in a low voice. The light spots floating aimlessly in the air seemed to have heard the call of the call. They began to gather towards Calvin, and after a brief stay, they moved towards Calvin. Esther flew in the direction and retracted to the top of her head.

After losing the light, the room fell into darkness.

Esther breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling that many light spots became full of vitality, knowing that she had further mastered them.

In addition to causing chaos, these light spots can also absorb the power generated when other people's fate is distorted to supplement themselves. This is the cycle that truly escapes the long river of fate and achieves its own integrity.

Galwin's painful breathing weakened. He raised his head in disbelief and looked over with his amber eye that had returned to normal: "...Why?"

Esther didn't answer the question.

She raised her head and looked behind Galvin, where two vines were using their leaves to lift up the window. Outside the window were dense flower branches and leaves, as if someone had moved the apartment building into a flowerbed that could cover the sky.

This must be Mrs. Romano's handiwork.

"I asked you why." Calvin got up from the floor and stared at Esther.

Xiao Qi sneered.

"If I can delay it for another ten minutes, you will die too," Esther looked at the magical item in her hand, feeling the desire for blood coming from it and the compulsion to arrange everything symmetrically. "It will be so hungry that it will pierce into your body and draw blood. Didn't anyone tell you that sealed artifacts have many side effects?"

The window was fully opened, and more and more climbing vines with morning glory came into the room, quickly covering every gap except for the two people's footholds.

Galvin tried to smile, but the pain in his eyes made him just twitch the corners of his mouth: "I know, the only thing I didn't expect was you. I thought you were a witch or an animal trainer..."

A few light spots fell, drawing a line of blood from the wound on Esther's shoulder, pouring into the red bow tie, gradually calming down the restlessness coming from it.

"So what are you?" Galvin watched this scene obsessively, completely ignoring the plants that almost covered his entire body.

"Good question, I want to know too."

Mrs. Romano stood in the doorway, beside Father Utravsky holding a huge sword.
