Chapter 129: The Mysterious Vera
The people in the hall on the first floor were still waiting to watch the play, and Glitter had already stepped onto the second floor.
The strange thing is that he obviously came to the Banshee Bar following the marked breath in the senses, but when he went up to the second floor, he didn't see Lady Vera.
The large second floor is extremely empty, with only a round table and a matching chair in the center.
Other than that, there is no other sign that someone has lived.
Walking to the table, a folded piece of paper was placed in the center of the table.
"Lady Vera?" Gretel tentatively spoke, but received no reply.
He stood there and thought for a moment, and was about to leave first, going downstairs to ask Florin what had happened.
But as soon as I turned around, my brain was in a trance for no reason.
When I came back to my senses, I was already sitting at the round table.
There is also an extra cup of fragrant tea in front of him.
Is Lady Vera an Oriental?
Gretel's heart had such a thought, there was no way, this way of drinking tea, except for the East, he really couldn't imagine that there would be people like this in other places.
However, it is clear that Vera did not intend to solve his doubts, and after pulling him back, he will not bother with him.
Glitter tried to stand up, but after several struggles, he found that his body seemed to be immobilized, and no matter how much he struggled, he could not leave.
The tea in front of him wafted out a faint fragrance, and Gretel rolled her eyes helplessly, Madame Vera is still an enthusiastic person!
Estimating that he would not finish the tea, Madame Vera would never let him go, and Glitter reluctantly picked up the cup and brought it to his lips.
Originally, he planned to never drink, and when he went out, he had to be cautious in everything, especially this kind of stuff in the mouth.
I don't know Vera's attitude, how can Gretel sip with confidence in such an unclear situation.
However, the situation is stronger than people, and Gretel has tried several times, and has already used all the means at his disposal.
He also urged the magic particles to move, but even so, the chair under him was like a solid rock, and no matter how much he was blown by the wind and rain, he couldn't shake it in the slightest.
The tea was held to his mouth, and a wisp of fragrance quietly drifted to Gretel's nose, and then Gretel's eyes lit up.
The fragrance of the tea alone instantly lifted his spirits.
For a moment, Glitter couldn't help but praise the hospitable Lady Vera in her heart.
Looking at the tea soup that looked like glass and gradually turned into amber, Gretel's mouth rarely dried up.
He didn't know why his body had become so hungry at this time, like a traveler who had lost all his baggage and had been walking alone in the desert for a long time.
Walking alone under the boundless scorching sun, when the whole person was struggling on the edge of life and death, he saw an oasis full of clear springs in the distance.
That's how his body felt him.
Resisting the desire to drink, he slowly put the tea soup into his mouth and drank it all.
At this moment, the surging energy instantly erupted from his abdomen, and Gretel was like a balloon that had been blown up, becoming round for a while.
There was also a bang in his mind, and the whole person instantly became groggy.
"It's over, it's going to be blown up." There was only one thought left in Gretel's brain, and then the whole person went into a trance.
He wanted to struggle to vent this energy, but the chair under him not only restrained his body, but also restricted the channel through which his body's energy leaked out.
Just when Glitter felt that his whole body was about to explode into a ball of fireworks, he heard a suppressed exclamation.
Then a graceful figure appeared behind him, and a pair of soft and nervous people rested on his head.
——
When Glitter woke up, the little glimmer of the setting sun outside the window had dissipated.
Only the pale white street lamps shine through the windows, showing him the passage of time.
Glitter rubbed his head in annoyance, feeling as if he had formed some indissoluble bond with the coma.
The panel buttons in the field of vision, constantly turning on and off, attracted Gretel's attention.
At his strength, there was very little movement on the panel, unlike when he was still weak, there were one or two spell level breakthroughs at both ends in three days.
The current panel, not a year and a half, don't think about any superfluous movements.
But this situation also let Gretel know that once there is any movement on the panel, it must be a big change in him.
Sure enough, the [Wizard] entry that appeared with the panel since the day of activation has changed its expression like [Gift].
[Witcher: Magical Affinity] became [Wizard: Magical Mastery].
However, at this time, Glitter did not have time to study how much this magic control could bring him improvement.
For he did not remember until this time, and before he fell unconscious, it seemed that he vaguely felt that someone was coming to his side.
Help him dissolve the swollen magic that he was about to explode.
If you think about it, it must be the owner of the Banshee Bar, the mysterious Lady Vera.
Everyone knew that Madame Vera was the owner of the Banshee Bar, but when you think about it, there is only her story in the wizarding world.
No one has ever seen her in real person.
There are only rumors about her appearance, strength, experience, everything.
However, in terms of strength, there is no need to guess at all.
After all, whether it is Glitter who is confined to a chair, or those wizards in history who have wasted their lives in vain, they can prove the strength of Lady Vera, not rumors.
But her temperament, appearance, experience, if these things are really discussed, no one can come up with empirical evidence.
Everyone knows that Lady Vera is powerful, but they don't know who Lady Vera is.
Even Vera doesn't know if it's her real name.
That is, she did not kill because of the title of Lady Vera, which made people determine her gender.
Feeling the magic in his whole body, Glitter tried to fight against the power that restrained him in the chair, and finally found that he still couldn't break free.
It was only Grett who determined the strength of Lady Vera, and it was definitely not an existence that he could fight against.
For a while, Glitter was a little skeptical, is there really such a powerful and incomparable force in the current wizarding world?
After all, according to the results of his research with Dawn and Grindelwald, the current magical power has been weakened to a certain extent.
The ability to change the world by one's own power should no longer exist.
If the whole world is constantly being degraded now, it is hard to imagine how powerful Lady Vera must have been many years ago.
Perhaps, she alone could change an entire century.
However, this is not in line with the current social situation.
If Lady Vera is really a banshee, then why doesn't she save the banshee race, which has long since declined.
Shouldn't it be a simple thing to rule the wizarding world with her abilities, and even sweep the entire world?
Thinking about it, Gretel couldn't figure it out.
In other words, if he had such strength, he would have started to prepare for the great fusion of the wizarding world and Muggle Century.
After all, he could come and go freely in the wizarding world and the Muggle world on his own, and it was impossible for Lady Vera not to do it.
But she didn't act like this, and even willingly shrunk here to open such a small bar.
And then again, why is such a powerful figure treating him with a green eye.
not only prepared a clear tea for him to improve his strength, but also nervously helped him digest the soaring magic.
Without that cold magic rushing into his body, Grett could be sure that he would have exploded into fireworks by now.
After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't get any results, so Grette had to temporarily give up his exploration of Lady Vera, anyway, Lady Vera's attitude is here.
He could be sure that Vera was friend or foe.
Only then did Gretel turn his attention to the blank paper on the table in front of him.
Since he was tied to a chair and tea was prepared for him, this piece of paper must also be given to him.
Otherwise, there is no way to explain why you didn't meet him and didn't let him go.
'I've been waiting for you. ’
Gretel looked at the unexplained message on this piece of paper, and was a little confused for a while.
He was sure that he had not even heard of the name of Lady Vera before today.
It was the name that he learned from Fred's mouth.
So, he could be sure that today was his first meeting with Lady Vera.
But why would she say she had been waiting for him?
Have the two of them seen each other in the past?
Gretel thought about it seriously and was sure that no one around him had such strength.
However, at this time, he felt that the strength that had been restraining him and preventing him from standing up was finally gone.
Then Gretel left the empty second floor with a puzzled expression.
When Gretel's puzzled figure appeared step by step in the sight of everyone on the first floor.
The atmosphere on the first floor of the bar was instantly detonated.
"Come out, give money~"
"He went up to the second floor, and he was able to leave alive?"
"You're wrong, not only is he alive, but he doesn't have any injuries on his body?"
"Why is this man? Could it be that Madame Vera likes this look? ”
"Quick, get the word out......"
For a moment, the entire first floor had nothing to say, and Glitter looked at them in surprise.
What's going on?
Before he could react, Florin behind the bar greeted him warmly.
"Guest, here, I'll invite you to drink."
His expression was extremely eager, and he was also very curious about how the man in front of him could leave alive from the private realm of that violent female demon.
He was even more curious about what the second floor, which Madame Vera never approached, looked like.
Also, he wanted to find out what Lady Vera looked like from Gretel's mouth.
This is a difficult mystery in Kunlun.
Just as Florin greeted Gretel, suddenly the whole person froze in place, tilting his ears sideways, as if listening to something.
In an instant, he looked at Gretel, who was approaching him, and reluctantly groped inside the bar.
"Guest, your ice water."
Only this time, he didn't paddle the cup containing ice water down the smooth table like he had done before.
Instead, he 'enthusiastically' pulled Gretel's hand, blocked everyone's sight, and stuffed a cold object into Gretel's hand.
Gretel silently raised his eyes and put the East XZ that Florin had given him into his sleeve.
Leaning against the bar, Glitter held a glass of water and glanced at the people around him.
He hadn't forgotten the purpose of coming here today, to find out what the fake dawn was all about.
Just looking around, he didn't notice that anyone had the kind of upward feeling that was unique to the members of the Dawn.
"Bartender, ask you for a message."
Glitter beckoned to Florin, waited for him to come over, and whispered.
For some reason, after taking the object from Florin's hand, Glitter noticed that Floring's eyes became more and more resentful when he looked at him.
"Guests say that we also buy and sell information here."
Trying to ignore his gaze, Glitter quietly drew the word dawn on the table through the water stains.
"I'm sorry, guest, we don't sell this information here." Florin said quickly.
It's just that immediately after that, he changed his mouth urgently as if he had eaten coptis.
"We don't sell cheaply here......"
Looking at his unpinched posture, Glitter felt that if he hurried, he could suffocate himself.
"Money is not a problem, you can say how much."
Gretel raised an eyebrow absently.
The money in the Moldava headquarters is almost too much to save, and the treasure trove where the gold galleons are stored has to be expanded every month.
"One Galleon!" Florin's face was already filled with grievances, and his eyes were full of why.
Glitter was a little surprised, but then he thought of something, and took out a Galleon from his pocket and slapped it on the table.
"The information that customers need will be handed over to you when they leave the restaurant, so you can rest assured that no one can touch the guests of the Banshee Bar in the Black Market Street."
Glitter nodded, put down the glass in his hand, and walked straight out of the bar.
As for the staring eyes at him, to be honest, Glitter didn't feel any threat.
Even without Lady Vera's maintenance, he can kill seven in and seven out at will.
You know, before he improved his strength because of that cup of tea, he could fight back and forth with Dumbledore.
Are there many people in the wizarding world who can face Dumbledore head-to-head?
Even if he is old now, there are only two Dark Lords who can touch his tiger whiskers so far.
Others, one-on-one with Dumbledore, were nothing more than dirt dogs.
Changed to Gretel, even more so, there is no one-on-one, even if they go together, Gretel will only give them a garbage evaluation.
The moment he left the bar, Gretel's pocket sank, and a bottle landed in his pocket.
There was a note on the bottle, Banshee Bar, Intelligence Monopoly.
Behind him, the voice of Si Suo Suo followed him out.
