Chapter 102: Facing "Despair"
Tuesday, July 10th.
While enjoying breakfast, Valilla tells her maid Leah to tell the kitchen to adjust the food for lunch, and she wants to eat Dixie pie, paella, and Fenerport pasta.
As for white bread, it's a regular staple and doesn't need to be reminded.
Valilla was also going to prepare the four main dishes that she could see, and she didn't want to prepare the essential oils of the moon flower, golden mint, deep sleeping flower, golden mandarin and rock rose.
She planned to use her usual fragrance instead, anyway, when she made it, she also used a lot of hydrosols, flower essences, balms, essential oils and incense, and the effect was not much worse.
What's more, Crane can't smell it, so there is no need to prepare anything else.
It's time for the ritual magic, and Valeera is set after lunch.
After breakfast and playing on the lawn with Harpy, Valera tells him through the "Psychic Connection" that in a few days, he will be able to acquire magical abilities.
This made Harpy excited, energetic, and running happily across the lawn.
Of course, if it knew that the most obvious improvement in the so-called extraordinary ability was a greatly reduced sleep time, I don't know if it would be so happy.
Valeera would tell it that because it was really in place.
The formula for the "Sleepless" potion, which she had already traded from "Mr. A", showed that there was no problem with the recipe afterwards;
As for the extraordinary material, Valera is ready to replace it with the "factory owner's favorite" that is about to be traded.
For the average extraordinary, magical items cannot be used directly to concoct potions like extraordinary properties.
But for Valeera, there are some exceptions.
Her awakened ability to "craft runes" can not only "craft" magical items, but also "dismantle", although there are no small limitations.
For now, the magical items she can "make" can only retain one ability; And what she can "dismantle" is only the magical items that correspond to the low sequence.
And, after the demolition, what she got was not pure extraordinary characteristics, but still with spiritual pollution.
It's just that the less polluted ones can still be blended into potions for the promotion of the extraordinary.
Of course, the potion prepared in this way will definitely increase the difficulty of promotion to a certain extent for the extraordinary.
Like the "factory owner's favorite", as well as the "bottom line" pocket watch on her body, they can be "removed" and used to replace the main material of potions.
However, the latter has a special significance, and Valeera will never "dismantle" it.
……
At lunch, using the ability to "manipulate the frost", Valeera easily deducted half of each of the four staples she needed and froze them on the skirt under the hem of her skirt.
Leah, the personal maid across the door, doesn't know anything about it.
Soon after, she found an opportunity to be alone and performed the ceremony in the large bathroom attached to the master bedroom.
In the original book, Audrey also performed a ceremony in the large bathroom.
Compared with the ceremony held by Audrey, Valeera's ceremony this time can be called simple.
In addition to the necessary processes, Valera has basically reduced the number of things that can be reduced to a greater or lesser extent.
For example, she did not bathe beforehand, for example, she did not prepare essential oils as required, for example, the amount of her staple food was not too large......
Of course, Valera believed that with Crane's current vision, he couldn't see it.
"O fool who does not belong to this age;"
"You are the mysterious lord above the gray mist;"
"You are the king of yellow and black who rules good fortune."
"I pray for your help."
"I pray for your curling."
"I pray that you will let me have a good dream."
"O Deep Sleep Flower, the herb that belongs to the Red Moon, please pass on the power to my spell."
"O mandarin, herbs belonging to the sun, please pass on the power to my incantation."
……
After chanting the name, Valilla felt the wind begin to blow within the sealed spiritual wall, and she noticed a halo of light circulating on the crimson star on the back of her hand.
She half-closed her eyes, meditated, and pleaded.
When the request was complete, Valeera opened her eyes and waited quietly for a moment before starting to clean up the ceremony.
Thanks to the flush toilet "invented" by Russell the Great, Valeera easily destroyed the four staples and candles; The altar is the ice table she condenses, which can also be easily dispersed; As for the strong smell of fragrance in the air, after opening the window, it will gradually disappear in ten minutes.
Valeera's servants were all newcomers who had just been hired, so she was quite cautious in this regard.
After the ceremony, Valeera had nothing important to do.
Here's her plan:
In the evening, Valilla would go to the bridge district and bring Miss Sharon in her place for a few days, so that she could get out and return to Tingen.
According to the original schedule, the "tuxedo clown" is about to hit the road.
Valiera had to give him a ride.
Of course, her main goal is the extraordinary characteristics of the "magician".
……
At nine o'clock in the evening, Valeera dismissed her servants and went to bed.
Judging from her experience of going out at night so many times, after half past nine, Liya, the personal maid who slept in the small bedroom next door, would probably fall into a deep sleep.
She waited patiently for the time to go out.
It's just that the unexpected happened.
Before half past nine, Valeera, who was lying on the soft futon, suddenly had an idea, and subconsciously looked at the full-length mirror not far away, facing the bed.
On the mirror, a faint shade appeared out of thin air, and then swayed layer by layer, like a ripple of water.
A dark and illusory deep "passage" that is not real enough takes shape in the mirror in the blink of an eye.
A figure dressed in a holy and pure white robe entered from the other end of the "passage", and soon crawled to the exit of this end, appearing in front of Valera.
"Nightingale of Despair", Panadaya!
She was dressed in a pure white robe, her hair was loosely pulled up, her neck was slender and fair, and her face was extremely bright, giving people a sense of holiness and dignity.
By this time, Valera was already standing by the bed, her expression extremely grim.
It happened suddenly, and she didn't have time to make any decent preparations.
Of course, even if she was given enough time to face a true demigod, she would not actually be able to prepare for any useful use.
On the carpet next to the full-length mirror, an ice pick lies quietly.
Obviously, Valilla didn't try to destroy the mirror, but it didn't work at all.
I can't beat it, and I can't run away......
Suddenly, she had to face "despair" in real terms.
