Chapter 30: Earl
After a while, Ron finally relented, he picked up the demon talisman, and said with a wry smile, "I'm sorry, Mr. Muse, but I lost my temper." ”
Muse encouraged: "For a lot of beginners, you've done a great job. I just hope you don't complain that I didn't remind you of the point where you were about to get out of control. But this should be your own business, you need to control the time and control the state by yourself, because no one will remind you now or in the future. ”
Ron nodded.
"Also, now I'm going to teach you something. ”
This must be lifelong advice, Ron quickly stood up and replied, "Please speak." ”
"Two minutes and forty-two seconds, you have to remember this point in time, this is the point in time when your token sends a warning. Muse said: "The easy mistake that novices can make is that when they have a token, they are no longer vigilant and rely on everything on the token, which is a problem that is worth faceping." ”
"First, can you still rely on the token to warn you when someone else has destroyed your token? Second, you can't always quit using the talisman after the token has issued a warning. The token sends a warning, which means that you have reached a critical point, and beyond that, there is the abyss. ”
After pondering the wording for a moment, the muse added: "Let's put it this way, in the middle of the battle, you had a chance to exit safely, but you don't know how long you can stay in this state, and if you quit, it may lead to the defeat of the battle." Therefore, you choose to continue using the charms. And after the token warns, you are entangled by people and cannot perform the exit ceremony, then you can only watch yourself be eroded by demonic power step by step and become a monster. ”
Ron's heart moved, and after having the token, he did begin to think that he could finally use the talisman safely. But after listening to Muse's advice, he realized that he was indeed very wrong.
"Also, the time spent using the talisman can be extended by improving one's spirit, body, and even some other methods. One of the easiest ways to do this is to keep using the talisman to increase your resistance to demonic power, but I don't recommend doing this, as every time you use the talisman, it's a gamble. The Muse continued, "You need to be on your own for this, and I can't help you more. I just want to say that two minutes and forty-seven seconds, this time is not the only one. You have to stay calm at all times and grasp your own transition, which is the most correct. ”
"Yes, Mr. Muse, I have remembered. ”
"Thirdly, the demon charm is not everything. If you are strong enough, you will be stronger when you use the Talisman. For example, claws and fangs, beginners can only have the simplest claws and fangs, but many strong people are enough to use this talisman to turn themselves into a tyrannical beast, a sane beast that can quit at any time. ”
Ron nodded cautiously.
Looking at Ron's expression, Muse smiled with relief. Finally, he put away his smile and said seriously, "The last point, which is the one I told you a long time ago. ”
The two looked at each other and said in a deep voice, "Mortals must not covet the power of the gods. ”
The muse smiled genuinely lightly this time, "Okay, put away this demon talisman, you don't have to stay here anymore, staying here for too long is actually not a good thing." Now, you can go to the library and read a book, have a drink with your colleagues, or chat with Miss Belle. Well, it's best to talk to Mr. Charles, and he'll tell you a little bit more, something you need to know that belongs to this embassy but isn't directly connected to the Abyssal Mists. ”
Ron kept the talisman firmly in his pocket, said goodbye, and slowly walked out of the basement.
Looking at Ron's back, Muse muttered.
"Two minutes and forty-seven seconds? I was less than a minute!"
As Ron came out of the basement, Charles Cummers saw him at a glance.
"How do you feel, aren't you intimidated?" greets Charles Comers.
Ron laughed, "Actually, I was taken aback, how to say, there is a kind of ......"
For a moment Ron didn't know what words to use to describe his feelings, and Charles Somes answered: "A feeling of powerlessness that is pressed beneath the surface of the water, and can see the sun above your head, but can't rise to the surface." ”
Charles Cummers said what Ron was thinking, and he nodded, "That's exactly how it feels. ”
"Take it easy," Charles Cummers patted Ron on the shoulder and comforted, "The Muse probably doesn't remind you at the tipping point, he always does it, in order to give the newcomer a little fear of the abyss and the fog." But in fact, as long as you grasp this time and control the desires in your heart, everything will be free of waves. ”
"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Charles. ”
Charles smiled, bent down slightly, and saluted, which was considered a response. Then he led Ron down the hall and shouted to a few of the people sitting on the couch, "Come on, ladies and gentlemen, don't you want to give a warm welcome to our new members?"
"Ron, right, don't be so inhibited, we're all very talkative. ”
"Would you like a drink?"
......
Everyone responded enthusiastically to Ron, and Ron thanked him one by one.
Muse had already introduced Ron to these people at random yesterday, and Ron had put a little effort into remembering their names.
The drunken bearded man in his forties was the leader of the embassy's demon squad named Oleg Kudria Loban. In fact, he is not from the Norma Confederate Powers, he is from the Alvana Militaristic States.
Immediately afterwards, the lady with high-heeled leather boots and big golden eyes named Yaksia Buddell, who was also a member of the sorcerer.
Sitting beside her was a well-mannered gentleman, who also wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, but this one was much more gentle than the exaggerated frame of Yaxsia Buddell.
His name is Sico Langer, but he is not part of the Demon Division, but rather a junior law enforcement officer under the Supervision and Inspection Division.
Finally, Cain, who heard from Mr. Muse that this young man of about his own age had only recently joined the company as a demon master.
Compared to the enthusiasm of the others, Cain was much colder.
I don't know if it's because of his personality, he sat alone on the corner of the sofa, playing with a silver coin in his hand, not knowing what he was thinking.
In addition, there is a man named Grace Black of the Demon Division, but he is not here today, so he may be on some important business.
After saying hello and chatting about some miscellaneous things, Charles offered to show Ron around the embassy, telling him about the specific locations of some places and some common sense that he should know.
Ron, of course, couldn't ask for it, and he greeted the few people sitting on the couch again before following Charles's footsteps.
They came to the merchant cabinet.
"Good morning, young man. Earl raised his eyes and greeted Ron.
Ron replied, "Good morning, Mr. Earle. ”
