Chapter 31: The Ritual of Color
"So what should we do?"
Audrey glanced around covertly and lowered her voice.
She didn't want to cause panic at her family's dinner.
"You're not strong enough to face such a crisis, leave this matter to me, if I'm not mistaken, Hinkdor. It is very likely that the reason why Anze can be watched by the evil god comes from you, so you should be more careful in the recent period, and it is best not to enter and leave the manor. ”
See roots in Sinkdor. After the Mother Tree of Desire in Anze's spiritual body, Anthony understood the other party's purpose.
He wanted to use Sinkdor's desire for Audrey to spread the infection, and then create a breakthrough, similar to the ability of "Error" and "Gate", using bugs to create an entrance to Earth.
It's not much different from what happened to Mr. Ke in the original book, but it's a pity that he doesn't know the essentia he carries.
Anthony's eyes twinkled, and he wondered how to solve the crisis.
If it can't be solved, he feels that it is impossible for him to go to Yangen City, after all, it is also related to Audrey's safety.
"Because I... Okay, I got it. ”
Audrey didn't ask why, knowing that there were certain taboos in both the occult and the extraordinary.
It's like Sinkdor. Anze was under the watchful eye of an evil god.
At the same time, Earl Hall, who had just finished a dance with Lady Caitlin, looked faintly in the direction of Audrey and Anthony, and there seemed to be a trace of melancholy under his deep eyes.
Mrs. Caitlin, who was beside her, pulled his arm and chuckled in a low voice:
"Hall, you see how well they are compatible, and Anthony's kid is also very stable, so it's a good choice."
Lady Caitlin, who knew of Anthony's recent deeds, complimented, looking at the former's gaze with great satisfaction—
Not only does he have a smart head, but he is also very gentlemanly and funny, which is not much worse than that of Earl Hall back then.
And it is precisely because of this that she became the latter's wife.
"Hmm... Let Audrey choose for herself. ”
As one of the members of the House of Lords and a top banker in the Kingdom of Rune, Earl Hall did not feel that he needed to sacrifice his daughter's happiness in order to make commercial progress.
Even if he had that opportunity, he was not that kind of person, otherwise he would not have been able to teach such an excellent child as Audrey.
He and Mrs. Caitlyn agreed on this point, but in the process of choosing, it was necessary for him to examine it.
——
"Have a great night, Miss Audrey."
At the end of the dinner, the nobles left one after another, and Anthony put on his top hat and said goodbye to Audrey with a smile.
Immediately, he grabbed his cane and walked towards Lady Irma, who was already waiting in the carriage.
"Have a nice night too, Mr. Anthony."
Looking at Anthony's departing back, Audrey muttered.
She knew that she couldn't help herself in solving the evil god's gaze in Sinkdor's body, and the only thing she could do was to improve her strength.
After exchanging goodnight with Earl Hall and Lady Catelyn, Audrey returned to her room, stripped off her cumbersome and heavy gown, changed into a homely nightgown, and lay flat on the bed, her mind involuntarily began to think about her time with Anthony tonight.
Ahhh Why did you go up and invite me so abruptly?
Audrey covered her cheeks and neck, which were becoming red, with a soft fuzzy quilt.
I felt that something was wrong as soon as the dance began, but what happened later put my thoughts on hold.
In retrospect, it's so shy!
After only a few seconds in the quilt, Audrey lifted it again, and she was almost out of breath.
By the way, the note that Anthony gave her, it seems that there is some ritual other than sequence 8 "Mind Reader"?
Turning over and sitting up from the bed, Audrey found the folded note in the hidden pocket of her faded gown, opened it, and saw the familiar vigorous font.
"Main materials: intact pituitary gland of the colorful saurus, 10 ml of spinal fluid from the Farsman rabbit, auxiliary materials..."
"Goddess, thank you, Mr. Anthony!"
After going back and forth over the potion recipe for Sequence 8 "The Mind Reader" a few times, Audrey suppressed her excitement and clicked it clockwise on her chest four times.
Immediately, her gaze returned to a passage written under the potion recipe in Hermetic language.
This look suddenly made her beautiful green eyes widen a little.
"There is no void in the world, the only master of the mysterious world, the co-master of all forces... The Great Anthony. Slo! ”
This... These three stages are already honorific names that can only be possessed by gods, right? And at the end, it directly pointed to Anthony's name!
Audrey's eyes were full of incredulity.
She had heard that only gods, or gods who were on earth, could have such a name, and could Anthony be one of the latter?
He said the ritual... You don't mean that's the name, is it?
Wouldn't he be able to sense my prayers right now?
At the same time as Audrey's idea appeared, in the carriage that drove to Slow Manor, Anthony, who had just finished talking with Lady Irma and obtained the knighthood step, closed his eyes, and seemed to be resting, in fact, the spirit body had already arrived in the space of the immortal stone tablet-
He felt that someone was reciting his honorific name!
After coming to the space of the Immortal Monument, Anthony followed the connection between the Venerable Name and himself, successfully turned it into a bond, and reached out to observe the state of the reciter...
"Poof!"
Inside the carriage, Anthony opened his eyes suddenly, and a mouthful of nosebleed almost didn't spurt out.
Damn, why did Audrey change into her pajamas so quickly... Still is...
The image lingered in his mind, and Anthony touched his nose with some embarrassment.
He really didn't mean to!
But one thing to say, the table is really white, no, the mirror is really smooth...
Anthony's heart was full of restlessness, and he could only rely on meditation to let his head empty instantly, well.. This is one of the benefits of meditation, as it is easy to enter the time of the sage without using a technique.
At this time, in the East Chester Manor, Audrey saw that there was no response, and whispered silently.
This time she put her hands on her chest, which was definitely courteous.
But... Still nothing happens.
Anthony's name can't be fake, right?
Audrey was suspicious, she didn't know, because of her recitation, Anthony was not destined to be very good tonight.
At least insomnia.
