Chapter 10: The Book of the Black Goat

Almost for a moment, Sean almost felt the urge to run away from the door.

Because, the evil spirit that attacked him before was also the same silver-haired and blue-eyed, and even, vaguely, he felt that the appearance of that evil spirit was somewhat similar to the lady in front of him.

Cress! That evil spirit is Kress, damn it, I should have thought of it...... When Sean's face was pale and his heart was racing, memories and images suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Sean, can you do me a favor? My mom doesn't know what's going on lately, she always looks like she's not giving up, I'm worried and scared......"

"Sean, do you think it's because of my graduation grades? Ever since I found out that my grades would not be able to go to St. Paul's College, my mother's mood has deteriorated, and we have a big fight about it. ”

......

"Sean, don't rush in first, I suddenly figured out one thing just now, I think I know why my mother is so unhappy. Well...... Don't look at me like that, it's because of you. ”

"Yes, it's because of you, because your father is a priest in St. Paul's Church, because your father sacrificed to save people, and you, as an orphan, can go straight to St. Paul's College no matter what kind of grades, it's not fair!"

"Yes, that's very unfair! Why, why can you go to such a good school without doing anything, and I can't? ”

"Woooooooooo......oo Don't look at me like that, can you? Like I'm a shameless bastard......"

"Hahahaha...... Even if I'm a bastard, as long as you die, Mom won't be unhappy, so, promise me, will you die? ”

......

Sean stared blankly at Arya Amasasia, who slowly turned her head, and the memories in her mind gradually calmed down like the waves after a storm.

"Sean, I've heard from the police about you, I'm sorry to involve you in such a thing."

Arya Amasasia was a very sensible and elegant lady, and although she was tormented by physical weakness and mental pain, she still sat straight and spoke in a soft tone like an aunt next door.

No wonder Auntie trusts and respects her so much, Professor Arya is indeed an admirable lady...... Sean's thoughts only flashed through his mind as he walked over to a chair in front of the hospital bed and sat down, apologetically, "Professor Arya, I'm sorry for this to happen, I didn't expect it to be like this......"

Arya Amasasia shook her head bitterly and said, "Sean, it's not your fault, it's all because of me, if it weren't for me to go to divination because of Rex's bad grades, none of this would have happened." ”

Divination? Sean instinctively froze.

Arya Amasasia seemed to see the doubt in Sean's heart, and said with pain in her eyes: "To be precise, my divination method comes from a book of the Black Goat during the First Empire of Ancient Rome, the specific author is unknown, but the text on it is not the ancient Roman language we are familiar with, but the ancient elf language. ”

"You may not know much about history, but what I want to say is that in the historical circles, the recognized fact is that before the Dawn Age when the Terrans were recorded, that is, the mysterious and vast Dark Ages, the masters of the continent were not our Terrans, but a world where many races coexisted, such as elves, giants, dragons, etc., and the corroboration is the mysterious symbols copied by some Terran sages from various ruins and inscriptions at the beginning of the Dawn Era. Well...... The topic seems to be far away......"

"In short, I would like to say that since I have been studying this book for many years, I have mastered a lot of knowledge in the book, including some divination methods related to fate. At first, I would never do anything mysterious like this, but Rex ......"

Speaking of this, Arya Amasasia paused, a tear seemed to overflow from the corner of her eye, and said in a trembling voice: "I couldn't help but divinate once, wanting to see Rex's future, but I had a dream that night, in which my poor Rex stabbed me in the heart with a knife in anger and madness......"

......

Sean listened carefully to Arya Amasasia's story, and after mirroring the memories in his mind, he basically sorted out the general course of events.

Rex's mother, Professor Arya, was supposed to be a proud lady at heart, and after knowing that her son's grades would not make it to St. Paul's College, her calmness and grace were completely shaken, and her heart was filled with strong negative emotions.

The specific manifestations may be frequent reprimands, tantrums, and even some abnormal behaviors on weekdays, which naturally causes huge psychological pressure on Rex, who is a little introverted.

Of course, because he was "lucky" to have a place to go directly to St. Paul's College, this may have stimulated the negative emotions of Rex and the other mother.

Even, it is very likely that Professor Arya uses him as a weapon to reprimand his son in his usual reprimands, which makes Rex feel jealous and resentful towards himself.

In the end, Professor Arya, who is gradually losing her mind, forcibly divination for the sake of her son's future, ignoring some taboos in the occult realm, and as a result, she dreams of her own "death message......

......

After combing through the general situation of the matter, Sean still found that there were some places that could not be explained for the time being, and could even be said to be a little weird.

For example, if it was really Rex who wanted to kill himself out of resentment, then how did he manage to make himself willing to commit suicide by jumping into the sea?

And Professor Arya, who knew that she would be killed by her son through a dream of divination, but the result of the incident was that her son committed suicide, and she survived by luck, how can this be explained?

There is also the evil spirit that seems to be Rex, the mysterious voice of the port, and the malicious gaze...... What's going on with all this?

Sean thought about it and felt that things were not as simple as he thought, especially after he had already experienced "a mysterious voice controlling himself to commit suicide by jumping into the sea" and "evil spirit attack", he had an almost instinctive intuition - behind this strange incident, there may be a real murderer hidden.

At this thought, he looked at Arya Amasasia, only to find that the other party was looking out the window blankly.

The moonlight on the street outside the window had disappeared at some point, and was replaced by a dark canopy of darkness that could not be reached.

The dark canopy seeped into the bay window, the walls, and the floor like ink, and finally swallowed everything in front of him under Sean's horrified gaze.
