Chapter 30: Give you a chance to pit me
The glass windows of the hotel's single room were dirty, covered with dust and traces of handprints.
However, the silver moon that quietly rose in place of the setting sun was still able to spread its brilliance through the glass window on Meren's right cheek without any hindrance.
A young man with thick black hair was sleeping peacefully on the feather bed in the room at the moment, holding a parchment book in his hand, breathing evenly, as if he was in a deep sleep state.
However, in fact, he was watching around curiously in his "dream".
He became the protagonist of the storybook, and the environment he was in was the other party's home.
This home is not big, just a hunter's hut standing deep in the jungle.
In addition to the oil painting of a family of three hanging on the wall of the hut, there is also a deer head specimen with a pair of male antlers.
On the side of the specimen, there is a half-open window.
The forest outside the window is dense, and the sunlight penetrates through the canopy, and it appears speckled when it sprinkles on the vegetable field in front of the window.
The sky here is completely different from the sky outside. Merron lay in front of the window and glanced at it, and found that there were still a few rabbits grazing in the depths of the forest.
"Is it so real?"
While secretly amazed, he did not go out to wonder if the animals were real, but refocused on the oil painting.
Or, the bottom of the oil painting.
Below the oil painting is the fireplace, and on the table at the top of the fireplace, in addition to a half-melted white candle, there is also a book quietly placed.
I walked over, picked up this booklet and looked at it, and the explanation line by line came into Mellen's eyes—
"Hello, descendant of the Rafaeli family, I am Anthony Rafaly, I think you should have heard about me from your father or grandfather."
"But that's not the point, what we need to highlight now is the book."
"What you're looking at right now is an amazing storybook made by the world's greatest wizard, Robin Lefali."
"Its existence will allow our Rafaeli family to prosper forever."
"The premise is that you, and the people who see this book next, can make good use of it."
…
The synopsis of the previous situation is very simple, but it is a bit absurd just in line with yesterday's annihilation incident.
While secretly slandering, Meren continued to look down, so he saw the key point.
"The clansmen who enter the storybook will condense into three different images according to their temperament and body."
"Those who are tough at heart, whether male or female, appear in the image of the male master."
"A person whose mind is occupied by love and desire will appear as a mistress."
"The purest one will take the daughter..."
…
A lot of bells and whistles have been said, but the core purpose is actually to strengthen the third hand of the wizard.
After reading the booklet roughly, Mellen came to a conclusion.
It's just that this reinforcement is completely different from what he had recognized before, or what was written in the old housekeeper's letter.
Simply put, the strengthening effect of this book is continuous, rather than a one-time reading.
But this continuous strengthening has great limits.
First of all, as the protagonist of the storybook, Mellon needs to "adventure" along the storyline.
However, it is not enough for him to go by himself. He must be accompanied by his daughter or his wife. After passing the "first level", a reinforcement will come, and then the second level will be opened.
And if all three of the book's quotas are used up, then this limit will be added one more layer - three people together.
This is a very strange setting.
According to the author of this booklet, the reason for this may be that the great Robin Lefali chose to abandon his wife and daughter in pursuit of the ultimate wizarding path, and became an emotionless "level brush" machine".
But he was surrounded by loneliness in his later years, but he regretted this decision very much.
So I created this book, hoping to keep the family alive forever, and to remind future people what is most important.
It sounded good, but it stumped Mellen.
Because the book was sent by Mrs. Chelsea, he had to send it back after he "read it", but he was not qualified to decide who the next two readers would be.
In other words, if he wants to use this book to strengthen himself, he needs to go on an adventure with two strangers.
However, if it's a normal adventure plot, it's nothing.
But according to the episodes he saw before he fell asleep, this plot is actually not so normal.
Or, not so serious...
"The lady obviously doesn't know the specific usage of this book."
This thought flashed through Mellen's mind, "Otherwise you're seducing me, but how is this possible?"
This can also prove that the lady sent the book to him the first time she got it.
How to get it?
The answer seems to be self-evident in cooperation with the annihilation incident that I heard about during the day.
"Ferocious, domineering, powerful, and full of self-confidence..."
Merron blinked, her heart throbbing with admiration.
"such a pity…"
With a sigh, he put the "instruction manual" in his hand back to its original position.
Mellen has given up hope of benefiting from the book.
Because he didn't think there would be strangers who could go on "adventures" with him.
Moreover, who can be sure that the next person who uses the remaining two places will be male or female?
Thinking of the scene of two or three big men forming a group to "adventure", Meren couldn't help shivering.
As a result, he didn't bother to observe any other hidden details in this place. Following the method explained in the instructions, he raised his hand and pinched his thighs.
So he suddenly woke up from the "dream" in pain.
After rubbing the part that seemed to be still in phantom pain, Merron got up and put the book back in the black wooden box.
Then he saw that the sapphire on the surface of his book of secret words was constantly shining.
That's the alert that appears when there is a "new message".
Turning it over, Merron's expression couldn't help but be startled.
"It's strange, the old assessor is actually quite protective of me?"
Mellon, who had no idea of his wizarding talent, felt a little strange about this.
He even wondered if what he did last night had been exposed.
But he is not very worried about this, even if it is exposed, what can he do?
He did nothing wrong.
Mellon is now thinking about one thing, and that is whether to go back.
If you want to be with a rich woman, or if you want to be Mrs. Chelsea's apprentice, you must go back to the Half-Blood Association.
But when you return to the association, you will face a little yellow hair with an unknown purpose...
Thinking of this, Meren didn't hesitate, took out a quill and a piece of letter paper from his magic pocket, and wrote on it—
"Kevin Felix is human."
"I'm human too."
"So I can know about Kevin Felix's latest plot."
After writing, Mellen's eyes dropped.
Pieces of pictures emerged from my mind.
Kevin who was pacing back and forth in the room with a sad face, Kevin who was gnashing his teeth and yelling, Kevin who arrived at the gate of a manor, Kevin who was on horseback thoughtfully...
The continuous picture is obviously incomplete, and it is obvious that most of the people involved in this matter are higher than Mellen.
But the core Kevin is always clear.
This is actually because he, who seems to be from a big family, is on the same level as Merron.
Before actually going to a wizarding school, all wizards were of the same rank, and Mellen knew that.
It is said that rushing up the level before entering school will be detrimental to future development.
So it was very easy for Melon to know that the other party really wanted to play tricks at the banquet.
But the specific means, but because of the participation of higher-level wizards, there is no clue at all...
"What a coincidence."
Merlen thought thoughtfully.
A trapped banquet is about to be held at Ernest Manor.
But if I remember correctly, that Jim's surname is Ernest...
He was still trying to figure out how to get Arthur to get close to his mother, and now there was an opportunity.
If so, wouldn't it be good?
It's just, why did that guy Kevin target himself?
Mellen was puzzled by this.
His channeling points to the "world", and he can see some pictures of what has happened in the world.
It's amazing, it's a pity that you can only see what has happened, and it is impossible to know what is going on in other people's minds.
So Melon felt that there seemed to be no reason for the other party to target him.
Could it be because of that magic?
But if this is the case, this person's character is too narrow, right?
But... it doesn't matter.
After pondering for a while, Meren picked up the Book of Secret Languages and sent a message to Assessor Feng.
Then he left the hotel in a hurry.
Merron is going back to the Half-Blood Society.
But before going back, he still has one more thing to do.
…
"Please make that Kevin wait a little longer, and I'll go back right away!"
A sentence from the Book of Secret Words made von der Leyen's expression startled unconsciously, and then he couldn't help but panic.
It's just that no matter what he sent next, he didn't see a reply from the other party, obviously he had already set off and rushed back.
"What the **** is this kid thinking?"
"Obviously it's a trap, do you want to jump into it?"
He was a little anxious about this, but on the surface, he couldn't make a sound.
Because Kevin was sitting across from the long table.
They were dining in a gorgeously decorated restaurant at this time. In addition to Examiner Feng, there was also the bald middle-aged Victor who had previously claimed to ignore this mess.
Right now the vice-chairman was telling a joke that wasn't very funny at the dinner table.
The blond teenager Kevin, while drinking the creamy snail soup in the small bowl with a silver spoon, nodded his head in cooperation, and seemed to have lost his previous irritability at all.
But in fact, it was because he was too hungry and urgently needed to fill his stomach, so he didn't have time to think about anything else for the time being.
This is normal, after all, no one can stay full after waiting here for most of the afternoon.
So when the old man who suddenly appeared began to prepare dinner and invited him to dinner, Kevin hesitated and agreed.
On the one hand, being too hungry, on the other hand, he felt that if he went back in such a bleak way, wouldn't he have waited so long for nothing?
Besides, if he really wants to go back without doing anything, where should he put his face?
Although Jim provided the idea for the open invitation, he was able to agree at the time, and he actually agreed with the plan.
As a result, it didn't work...
"As long as I'm full, I can say that the reason I've been here for so long is actually because this group of mixed races is too enthusiastic to invite me to dinner here.
"It's not because I haven't seen anyone all the time, so I wasted time..."
With this thought in mind, the blond boy enjoyed the exquisite dishes on this table with peace of mind.
This is not to say that he has completely lost his previous temper, but because he has already seen clearly that the two in front of him simply cannot hold back Merron.
You can't even grasp the whereabouts of the other party.
The relationship between the two is not very deep at all.
If that's the case, what's the matter with him throwing his face on these two irrelevant people?
After all, he came from a big family. Instead of losing his temper at them, it is better to go back and trouble the subordinates who provided wrong information.
"Then, what should I do with that illegitimate child?"
Kevin has some headaches about this.
It's messy to think about.
Because he wants his parents to remarry, he needs to appease his grumpy father first, lest he do something wrong on impulse.
And because he wanted to appease his father's emotions, he had to trouble the illegitimate child again.
The purpose is nothing but to hope that he will not be targeted by his father...
However, UU reading www.uukanshu.com illegitimate child did not cooperate with his plan at all.
Then, the illegitimate child is very likely to be beaten by his father's anger, and it is not certain whether he can survive...
"He really doesn't know what to do."
Kevin thought to himself, but he couldn't ignore it.
In the small, it is about the future of the parents, and in the larger, it is about the alliance between the two wizarding families...
However, now that the plan is not going well, what can we do to restore the situation?
With something in mind, Kevin at the table seemed a little absent-minded.
But before he could figure out a way, a commotion suddenly came in from outside the restaurant.
The old examiner became a little restless because of this, and Kevin glanced outside the door with a little curiosity.
Seeing this, he was suddenly stunned.
Because he finally saw the figure that he had been waiting for for a long time!
However…
"How did you become like this!?"
The bald Vice-President Victor was the least calm. After seeing the person coming, he rushed out and grabbed the person's arm, his tone was both annoyed and shocked.
"Uh, who are you?"
Mellon, who showed up, wanted to ask this question.
However, seeing the blond boy in the restaurant looking over his shoulder, he didn't say anything else, but sighed in frustration.
"I was chased and beaten several times in the afternoon, and I just managed to escape..."
"Why were you beaten?"
The old assessor not far away asked a question very cooperatively.
So Merron hesitated and said: "Because, because of gambling, I owe a lot of debt..."
As soon as these words fell, the expressions of several people immediately became very exciting.
