Chapter 5: The Sun Shines

Sherlock looked at the "mirror" in front of him.

It was a girl of about sixteen years of age, with a beautiful and childish appearance, and a few freckles on her cheeks. She has long, silky, flowing blond hair with braids on the sides.

Because she wears a pure white sacrificial robe, the temperament of a beautiful girl should be holy and innocent. But she was obviously a little confused and ignorant in her demeanor......

"Why is it a female ......?"

This is the second woman Sherlock has seen break into the "mirror......

"She doesn't seem to be scared of this place?"

"And how do you look old-fashioned?"

"The first girl before was mature and capable in temperament, like a female warrior, but it was obvious that she was more afraid of this mirrored world and more cautious."

Sherlock was intrigued by Lilith and secretly praised her for being as if she had seen a big scene.

But I didn't expect that the beautiful girl in the "mirror" had already bowed to the ground respectfully and reverently, and said in a trembling voice:

"I ask to be a transcendent ...... Or...... If not, I ask for an indication of what is truly the Essentia that fits me......"

Sherlock: "......"

"That's a good question...... I don't know what a transcendent ...... is."

Sherlock looked helplessly at the beautiful maiden.

"And you asked two questions, transcendent or transcendental essentia, I don't know...... And I'd love to know! Hope for answers......"

Of course, these words could only be muttered to Sherlock's heart.

It's this awkward moment.

Sherlock felt a slight itch on his face, and when he touched it, a hair had fallen out.

As if a wind was blowing, the hair broke away from Sherlock's grasp and floated towards the beautiful girl in the "mirror......

。。。

Lilith bowed to the ground in the ritual she knew best, dazed and apprehensive, waiting for the answer to her question.

Time and space seemed to freeze in this instant.

Lilith heard the mysterious voice again, ringing in her ears:

"The eternal sun we dominion, the crown of the pure and immortal sun of our creation, will direct you in the direction of your transcendent source......"

Lilith was so surprised that she almost jumped.

She knows the meaning of this sentence!

"The Eternal Sun, the Crown of the Pure and Immortal Sun, is one of the ten essentia that the elders of the Senate once mentioned!"

"It turns out that the transcendent essentia that best suits me is really the crown of the sun!"

Lilith was rejoicing when suddenly a hot, palpitating mysterious power loomed over her.

Lilith stole a glance up and immediately jumped up with joy.

A swirling flame of the infinite sun, the golden glow on the edge of the colorful "leaves", suspended in front of her eyes, stretched out to catch it.

"Oh my God, what the hell did I do!"

"Sun God Radiant Leaf?!"

"Is this a gift from the Great and Supreme Creator?"

Lilith shuddered from the bottom of her heart.

But then she calmed down, replaced by a dazed, apprehensive, and fear of the unknown.

The head of the Senate, her majestic grandfather, once said:

"You must pay if you ask for it! Pray and contribute! Thou shalt not blaspheme the gods! ”

"When I get the gift, I have to pay the price......"

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to leave ......"

Thinking of this, Lilith no longer dared to show her rude actions, and once again worshipped respectfully and piously, and asked in a trembling voice:

"Excuse me, what do I have to give? To be allowed to leave? ”

Sherlock looked at the "mirror" in front of him.

The hair floated in front of the beautiful girl, and then disappeared. But the girl seemed to jump to her feet in surprise, presumably with an answer.

However, the beautiful girl bowed nervously and panickedly again.

"Pay?"

Sherlock heard this again and felt a headache.

"I really didn't do anything......"

"Why do they think it's my answer......"

"Forget it, you still can't be greedy, just settle it with 1 gold pound. Giving money is the most affordable way to do it, and it saves you the hassle......"

Sherlock thought so and casually said:

"Your contribution is 1 gold pound."

Lilith was looking forward to it.

She heard the mysterious voice again, ringing in her ears.

"Gold pounds?"

"What is a gold pound?"

The girl had never heard of this esoteric word.

Lilith couldn't help but panic, desperately trying to think about it in her head. But after thinking about it, I really can't understand the meaning of "gold pound".

"I can exchange the most valuable item on my body for ......"

"This is my greatest and greatest sincerity! Well, that's it! ”

Lilith gave herself encouragement and confidence, and then in the inner pocket of the sacrificial robe, she took out the amulet chain that her grandfather had given her.

"I dedicate my most precious talisman to you, and ask for your permission!"

Sherlock looked at the "mirror" in front of him.

The beautiful girl actually took out a thin crystal chain and held it up to present.

"Sure enough, it's an innocent girl......"

"What's the use of this girl's decorative chain for me......"

"I want gold pounds......"

Sherlock expressed frustration.

Why don't uninvited guests who come into the "mirror world" like to bring money?

"Well, a piece of heart, too. I should also be a gentleman......"

Sherlock took the shimmering chain from the maiden, and said thank you in due friendliness.

Lilith heard the mysterious voice again, ringing in her ears.

Then in her eyes, the center of infinite darkness and light, the center of the deep starry sky, the majestic figure on the bronze throne, waved softly.

On her fingertips, a thick mist rose and enveloped her in an instant.

In a dazed and apprehensive atmosphere, Lilith seemed to have time passing in front of her eyes, and she had instantly returned to the underground stone chamber.

"I'm back!!"

Lilith woke up and immediately danced happily.

After rejoicing and excited, the girl immediately looked at her palm.

The "Leaf of the Sun Divine Radiance" is still held in the palm of your hand, exuding a warm and mysterious power, giving you a sense of comfort and immersion.

"I have omitted a lot of complicated material rituals, and I can directly promote to transcendental! And it's the essentia I'm most suited to! ”

"Praise my lord!!"

Lilith folded her hands to her chest, closed her eyes and prayed earnestly.

Immediately after the prayer, she looked at her fingertips with curiosity.

Sure enough, there was a speck on her fingertip that she could only see. Like a condensed lens, mysterious and deep, mysterious and mysterious.

"Can I be summoned again? There's still a chance! This means that I can enter that mysterious realm, into the realm of the Great Supreme Creator! ”

Lilith was so happy that she easily lifted the corners of her robe and spun it around, letting out a cheerful laugh.

。。。

Sherlock just said thank you.

In the "mirror" in front of him, the figure of the white-robed innocent girl has been covered by a thick fog. Then, like a fade, it fades away.

All the lenses around them became serene and quiet, still shrouded in fog.

"An operation is as fierce as a tiger, and a thin chain ...... in hand"

Sherlock sneered at himself, tucking the tiny, gleaming chain into his inner pocket.

Although the value is not high, it can be worn on a pocket watch as a bracelet when you have time, which is better than nothing.
