The news of Alan's awakening came from inside the castle, and cheers and celebrations appeared in the bay, and everyone celebrated the return of their lord, including the mercenaries who remained in the bay, and everyone's smiles were heartfelt.

Whether it was the imminent release from the pressure or the name of Allen's generosity and kindness, it was enough to make people so happy, and some people even ran to Pochi Castle to visit, only to be bombarded back by the soldiers on the grounds that the lord needed to rest, but this did not dampen the enthusiasm of the people, and the tavern street in the bay business district was very lively for the past two days.

However, although it is related to himself, Alan has not paid attention to this kind of excitement, and he has been busy taking over various things in Bay City since he woke up.

Charles is very capable of management, he has been cultivated as the successor of the reef since he was a child, it is impossible to have only force and no brains, and even relatively speaking, in terms of management, Alan is not as good as Charr.

So his handover can't be called a handover at all, it's just a simple understanding of the current situation in the city - since it has been decided to let Charles stay here, Alan thinks it's better to let him stay in charge, otherwise he will have to transfer back not long after he takes over, which is very troublesome.

So, the group of people outside the castle celebrated a little early....

As for whether Charles can stay here, Alan is still somewhat sure, not long after the stars have passed, Reef City currently has nothing else to do except deal with orcs, and the daily protection of the fields and the cultivation of farmers does not require the successor of the city to do it himself, rather than participating in those relatively small things, Alan feels that managing a city will bring more experience to Charr.

He believed that Tyron would not have thought of this thing, so rationally speaking, the mean father had no reason to refuse.

Even Alan felt that Charles was sent here after his disappearance, on the one hand, to show that he valued this matter, and on the other hand, it was probably to let Charles come here for an "internship".

If Eren disappears from now on, Charles will take over directly, and if Eren returns, then he will have to go to Samuel for a while, and Charles will have a reason to stay here.

This is not that there is anything particularly attractive about the bay, Alan believes that the bay will be no weaker than the current reef in the future, but this idea is estimated that no one but him will believe it, you know, there are several bays like cities near the reef, so relatively speaking, there is nothing attractive here.

Charles was sent here because he was "wiping his ass" for Alan, and on the other hand, Alan had malicious speculation that Taryn was doing this to squeeze and spy on his uncle Fisher.

Alan originally asked Fisher to come here so that he could help manage the city, and Taryn couldn't have guessed this, but with his "stingy" character, could he allow Fisher, his half-brother who had been excluded by him for more than ten years, to "resurrect" and come into contact with high-level power?

It is obviously unlikely, so with such an analysis, Allen is more sure of leaving Charles here, not to mention the "compromise" that he has been "planning" for a long time.

"So you have no reason to refuse me at all. Silently pretending to be forced in his heart, Alan didn't write this sentence into the letter, but fortunately "braked the car" in time.

The wrist turned, the quill brushed against the paper, and he bowed his head to write for a while, and this letter was written by him with affection and reason.

Packed in an envelope and sealed with fire paint, Alan placed the letter on his desk, ready to be handed over to his guards before heading to the reef, but his eyes looked at the pots of silver grass on the desk.

"It's time to test my cultivation ability, I hope it will be effective. Thinking silently about this question, Alan took out a seed from the desk drawer and was about to start his experiment when there was a sudden vibration in his left wrist.

"Finished charging again?"

Alan put the seed down for a moment, looked at his left wrist with great interest, and what caught his eye was not white or even blue, nor yellow, but - black!

"This is...."

The simple lines of the six-pointed star were all black at this time, and the black was very pure, as black as ink, almost the same color as Allen's hair.

In the six corners of the hexagram, black gathers, like a puddle of black mud crowded in the six corners, which looks like a strange "top-heavy" feeling.

Bursts of blackened light emanated from the six-pointed star, but there was no normal vibration, which proved that the current situation was not normal.

"Just got a gold, and here's a black one..."

Alan was at a loss again.

He hadn't figured out exactly how his golden gift came about, only that he had swallowed the heart with the six-pointed star, but he didn't know exactly what was going on.

And how did this black one come about?

"Did I touch a black heart again?"

"Or something else?"

He was suspicious for a long time, carefully remembering but did not remember that he had encountered anything strange, that is to say, the reason why the black gift appeared was because he was in a coma?

"What happened during that time, not only did it send me out, but it also caused this change in the hexagram?"

The more things upset him, the more he felt that he might be involved in something unlucky.

"It's time to talk to Raphael, he's said to have been there, so he should have seen how I came out. ”

This thought flashed through his heart, but Alan did not act immediately, but looked down at his six-pointed star again.

Although this black looks like a puddle of silt, which makes people look uncomfortable, it is not a gift anyway, and Alan feels that no matter how it appears, there is nothing wrong with extracting it first.

"A golden one completely changed the nature of my magic, what will appear this time?"

He found out about his state - full of magic power, because he wanted to cultivate, he deliberately wrote that letter after his magic power was restored to its completeness, and now it is just right to draw gifts.

So he didn't hesitate, his mind moved, and there was a sudden vibration from the six silt-like corners of the six-pointed star.

It did not turn into six images like a normal gift, and the black at the six corners of the six-pointed star was like muddy water, surging and rolling for a long time before it floated out of the six-pointed star like black smoke.

This situation made Alan frown, and his originally relaxed expression became a little cautious.

Even though he hadn't come across a black gift, Alan didn't think it should be.

He hadn't touched that gold before, and it looked basically the same as the others?

Why is this black so special?

All kinds of thoughts were complicated, but the six black smoke did not stop because of Allen's hesitation, they rose to Allen's eyes and gradually stopped, and then left in the air and began to brew.

Under Allen's vigilant gaze, the black smoke continued to detach from the surface of the six-pointed star, and gradually converged into lines of words in mid-air!

Yes, lines of words, there is no normal image, and what appears in front of Allen is just lines of never-before-seen words made of smoke.

It's not the Stars, it's not Roland, it's not the lingua franca of the continent, it's not even the Selvi language of the Red Mountain Continent!

This line of tadpole-like fonts Alan has never seen before, whether it is in the past life or in this life, but for some reason, Alan can understand their meaning!

【Karajel's Secret Words】

【Curse of Karajel】

【Karajel's Will】

【Breath of Karajel】

【Blessing of Karajel】

【Madness of Karajel】

The simple and mysterious six-line characters were inexplicably understood by Alan when he looked at them.

He didn't recognize the tadpole-like font, but he felt like he had seen the name Calajel somewhere. ...

Is it on "The Imperial Epic: Shining the Stars" or "A Brief History of Atasticik"?

It seems that he didn't read any important books before, and Allen's good memory is a little unclear at this time, but now is not the time to study this, he has already attracted most of his attention by the black gift at this time, raised his hand, and just wanted to choose one of them, these six lines of words gathered together, and then transformed into a long snake-like thing swirling around, turning into a garden ball made of tadpole words!

The ball continued to rotate, spinning in the air, and tadpoles formed long snakes intertwined with each other, looking mysterious and familiar.

"It's the same with the golden ones. ”

Alan thought about this, and he honestly put his hand into the ball, and then felt a heaviness follow.

It's like the weight of the ball is all in Alan's hands, and the heaviness is not very great, but the ball has fallen a little because of it.

Then Alan felt that snake-like things were drilling into the palm of his hand!

It didn't get into his body, but just slid his slippery body and rubbed the palm of Allen's hand, one by one, over and over again, endlessly, and it seemed to form a cycle.

But from the outside, Alan didn't see any changes in the tadpole ball, it was still wrapped in countless tadpole chains, and from the gap, he didn't see that his hand was entangled by any snakes, and the tadpole text only hovered around his hand.

In this regard, he did not rush to find an answer, but just waited quietly.

He didn't have to wait long, when a cold slippery greasy appeared again, the ball vibrate, and the "long snake" suddenly stood still, and as far as his eyes could see, a "long snake" broke away from the group, circled, and crawled into his hands!

Then immediately after, the tadpole ball shattered, and a large number of words exploded and flew, revealing the tadpole text that was caught by Allen in his hand, floating in the air, really like a snake, entangled in his hand, floating with his head and tail, and seemed to be constantly struggling!

"This...."

Alan was a little overwhelmed, he didn't know what to do next, but he didn't need to do anything, and after the long snake "struggled" for a moment, it suddenly arched its waist and then shot at Allen's face!

The black shadow attacked, Alan subconsciously wanted to dodge, but the long snake seemed to have a positioning function, Alan dodged, and it also reversed the direction, the speed was as fast as lightning, and it rushed to his face in the blink of an eye!

A burst of steam fluttering is coming!

As soon as the long black snake approached his face, it turned into a burst of black mist, and the section of the broken and changed into fog had a strange splendor in it, but Alan only felt a little choking at this time.

The black mist continued to penetrate his mouth and nose, and the sensation of inhaling flour appeared, and Alan bent over and coughed because of this, but the coughed gas was still entangled, detached and shot back, and drilled into his nose a second time.

So under this uncomfortable feeling, Alan faintly heard a cat meow!

At first, the cat's meow was inaudible, but gradually, the shrill sound became louder and louder, and finally it became even more deafening!

"Aiming ——!"

Unlike the normal meow of a cat, this high-pitched sound is eerie and eerie, just like the meow of a cat in heat, which makes people irritated to listen to.

"Aiming ——!"

After the black mist penetrated his mouth and nose, there was no torrent of memory, but the cat's meow grew louder and louder.

"Aiming ——!"

Vaguely, Alan seemed to see a cat face hidden in the boundless darkness staring at him, gold and blue dreamy light blooming from his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were hooked on both sides of a narrow mouth, as if he was smiling, revealing a row of neat and sharp teeth.

A mysterious and evil feeling followed, and inexplicably, Alan learned what the gift extracted this time was-

The breath of Calajel!
