Chapter 7: Alternative Mind Reading

In the evening, Valera woke up comfortably with a bright smile on her face.

The effect of the "Blood" potion was obviously good, and she was feeling good now.

After going out for dinner, Valera went to the nearby lettuce and meat market, where she bought two fresh fish.

Back in her inn room, she scraped off the scales of the fish, and using the little spiritual material she had left, she made a small packet of glowing powder—

This is the casting material for activating the "stealth" ability.

Vally stretched out her hand and sprinkled some on her body, then activated "Invisibility".

Soon, her figure became more and more transparent...... Finally disappear completely.

In a state of stealth, Valera slipped out of the window, closed it from the outside, and then fell to the ground, rushing towards the Golden Sycamore District.

She was going to find out about her parents.

In the early days, she thought that she was half an "assassin", so at least one of her parents was an extraordinary person in the middle sequence, and she preferred to believe that it was a fake death rather than an early death;

Later, she confirmed that her peculiarity had nothing to do with the "Assassin" path, so her parents might really be ordinary people.

She had to get that straight.

The main road in the Golden Sycamore district is very wide and can accommodate four horse-drawn carriages at the same time.

The single-family houses on both sides of the main road are basically with gardens and stables, and the owners are obviously either rich or wealthy.

Valeera walked a little further, turning into the next street, and soon found the house he knew so well.

Although it is also a detached house, it is not grand enough, the garden is small, and there are no stables.

It didn't take long for Valilla to find her target in the study on the second floor of the house, her uncle Anyelo Wilker.

He was looking through the ledger.

Suddenly, he felt a flower in front of him, and the words on the ledger seemed to come to life, and began to move on the pages.

Angelo soon felt dizzy and fell to the table in a daze.

At this time, Valeera, who was hiding on the side, wiped her right hand in front of her eyes, opened the "gray vision", and established a "connection" between herself and her uncle.

She used meditation to converge her thoughts, so that when the "connection" was established, only her uncle's thoughts spread to her unilaterally.

Of course, unguided thoughts are scattered and distracted.

"Sister." Valera sent a thought.

With this thought in mind, the content of the thoughts that spread over was much neater, and they were basically memories related to her mother.

After a while, my mind started to get mixed up again.

"Brother-in-law." Valera sent another thought.

……

It took Valera more than an hour to try out every introductory word she could think of.

After making sure that she could not come up with any more information, she quietly left again, as she had done when she came.

In the study, her uncle Annelo gradually woke up, only to feel that she had had a long dream, and her spirit was a little tired.

He hesitated, but put down the ledger and chose to go to bed early.

……

After leaving her uncle's house, Valera returned the way she came.

This time, she learned a lot about the past, learned more about her deceased parents, and even "saw" their faces.

It's something she couldn't have imagined before.

In general, she resembles his father, and her mother, like her uncle, has blonde hair.

With such detailed information, she would be much more reliable in her divination.

Re-entering the hotel room through the window, Valera cancels her "invisibility" and reappears in shape.

After closing the doors and windows and raising the "spiritual wall" to isolate the inside and outside, she raised her left hand and put an illusory mask surrounded by black mist that emerged from her palm on her face.

This is the ability she used to "steal the appearance" before leaving, and stole the face of her uncle.

Valera didn't do this for any particular purpose, just to test new abilities, like tonight's "stealth".

She remained "invisible" for two hours, and her spirituality was only nearly half consumed; But after putting on the Unreal Mask, her spirituality began to drain at an extremely rapid rate.

In less than ten minutes, half of her remaining spirit would be depleted.

Valilla walked briskly to the bathroom, and when she looked through the mirror, she realized that she was actually just a black mist covering her face, and nothing else had changed.

After observing, she withdrew her disguise.

She didn't want to run out of spirit like this, and she had to do magic mirror divination next.

Standing in front of the bathroom mirror, Valeera pressed her hand to the mirror, "The Magic Mirror tells me where my parents are. ”

After a layer of darkness, an image appeared on the mirror.

Green lawns, winding gravel paths, two crosses and tombstones not far apart...... This is a sight from Raphael's necropolis.

Valilla used to go every year to present flowers to commemorate her memory, so she recognized it at a glance.

After thinking about it for a moment, she divined again: "The cause of their death." ”

The mirror becomes dark again, and a new image emerges.

The black-haired man burst out of the flames, badly burned; The blonde lady was lying on the hospital bed, and suddenly she coughed violently, staining the handkerchief that covered her lips red.

There was no problem with the cause of their deaths, as Valilla knew.

This can completely prove that his parents are simple ordinary people-

In other words, she had nothing to do with the transcendent world.

Valera had vaguely guessed this when she was promoted to "Instigator", but it wasn't completely certain until today.

The inexplicable awakening of memories completely changed her fate.

Valera was a little frustrated, but quickly regained her strength.

Now that you have embarked on the path of the Extraordinary, you have no chance to regret it and can only move on.

Her most important thing at the moment is to play the "witch" well.

So how do you play it?

She has been thinking about this question for a long time and has her own understanding.

According to what she thinks, the focus of the role of "witch" is two words - "female" and "witch".

"Female" is well understood;

It is to fully show the image of women, including but not limited to aesthetics, manners, words and deeds, dress, etc.

In a word, the closer the better.

But there is a premise for this, that is, you must not forget that you are essentially a man.

Otherwise, it will easily get out of control.

This very distorted way of playing, in the final analysis, is the result of the influence of the "original witch" on the entire path.

Of course, even if the opposite is true, and keeping the male ego increases the risk of losing control, Varina will never change her will.

He can play Valeera, but he won't really be Valeera.

As for "Wu", it's not too difficult;

In the eyes of ordinary people, if you are a little mysterious and have a little magical ability, you can be hooked with "witch".

Like a witch doctor, like a wizard......

Of course, "witch" is a little more special, it has a relatively clear stereotype -

The old witch with a green robe and a pointed hat and a wrinkled face is the evil one who brings calamity, sickness, and suffering.

The first half of this is, of course, nonsense, but the second half is extremely quintessential.

Indeed, "witches" are meant to spread calamity.
