Chapter 133: A Gift of Fate
A blank sheet of paper depicting an intricate, mysterious symbol, resembling two giant snakes entwined.
On the table, there are two candles.
One of them is placed on the symbol of "Twin Snakes Entangled", and the other is placed in the center of the table.
This is the "duality" of ritual magic, and is often used to perform sacrificial ceremonies.
The candle in the center of the table represents the person offering the sacrifice, while the one on the symbol represents the object of invocation.
With the help of ceremonial silver daggers, water, coarse salt, and other materials, Admisore created a "spiritual wall" that surrounded the wooden table, following the process taught by Valera.
After rubbing the spirit with the material, and lighting two candles in turn, he recited in the ancient Hermetian language:
"The embodiment of luck;"
"Monsters who know the future;"
"Spreading the plague of doom;"
"Witness to all the fates of Beckland;"
"Chaos and madness of the guards."
"Your faithful servant prays for your gaze;"
"Accept his offering;"
"Pray that you will open the gates of the kingdom."
Ancient incantations reverberated within the walls of spirit, stirring up swirling winds and bringing about vibrations of the forces of nature.
Ademisor endured the pain of a knife on his skin, and sprinkled a tube of unknown blood rich in spirituality into the gale.
Woo!
The wind became more and more agitated, but it was no longer fierce, and it was dyed silver and dark black.
Constantly colliding and merging, the two winds of different colors threw into the candle flame representing the object of invocation, expanding and tearing out an illusory door of normal size with the symbol of "Entangled Twin Snakes" engraved on the surface.
Seeing this scene, Ademisor hurriedly held his head in both hands and lowered his head, and handed a cup full of cold ice cream, along with a piece of parchment, to the illusory door.
……
Ten o'clock at night.
Bakerland, North End, 2nd floor of the house at 66 Dalton Street.
A little boy who was less than ten years old suddenly woke up from his sleep with a slightly suspicious look on his face.
He rolled over and sat up, rubbing his left calf, which was obviously too thick, and the hole in his eyes was stained with a silvery color.
"It's a strange thing, but it's also a good thing."
He chuckled and reached out to make a push.
……
Bang dang!
In the unreal sound, the illusory door of wind and light opened, and behind it was a deep darkness.
A burst of suction that erupted and disappeared in an instant swept the ice cream and parchment in Ademisor's hand into the illusory door of sacrifice.
The next moment, the illusory gate vanished, the gale stopped, and the candle flame returned to its original state.
Ademisor finished the ritual by extinguishing the candles as usual, then pushed open the door and entered the adjoining master bedroom from his own small bedroom.
This was Harold's temporary room, and Valera was waiting at the door.
Seeing Ademisore come out, Valilla immediately asked, "What was the result?" ”
"The sacrifice was successful," Ademisore looked a little confused, "but unlike what you expected, there is no corresponding gift." ”
Valera thought for a moment and arranged:
"In this way, you go and get a good night's sleep, and the rest will be tomorrow."
"Harold, you too."
She had already explained what she needed to explain in advance, so after arranging the arrangement, Valilla left directly from the balcony again.
There are two main reasons why this sacrificial ceremony has been delayed until now.
One is because Valera has not fully made up her mind before, and the other is because Ademisol is too slow to learn.
Even if it was clear that the "young" angel was not a murderous high-ranking being, and that he was not in a very good state, Valilla had no intention of personally sacrificing her.
For high-ranking beings, her idea was to stay as far away as possible, well, unless it was a last resort.
Valera writes a letter to the "young" angel Will.
In the letter, she expressed her two requests in simple words, hoping to receive a "gift of fate".
During the time that Ademisore was studying the ritual of sacrifice, Valera thought it over and over again, and determined that she would not be able to accomplish what she wanted to do without the help of those in high positions.
There are two high-ranking beings who can help Valeera complete her plan.
One is the "young" angel Will, and the other is the "mysterious queen" Bernadette.
As long as she is willing to take risks, Valera is 100% sure that she can convince the "prophetic master" Huang Beibei in Sequence 3 to help...... But, the stakes are really big.
Therefore, Valera finally chose Will, who was less sure.
Now, now that Will has accepted the sacrifice, there is a good chance that he will help.
She is likely to enter Ademisor's dreams and give "gifts", which is why Valera lets him sleep and rest.
……
North District, 2nd floor of the house at 66 Dalton Street.
Will Unsetin leaned back on an erected pillow and took a small bite of ice cream on his left hand as he read the letter on his right.
After a moment, he smiled silently, tucked the letter under his pillow, and after eating the ice cream, lay down on the bed.
In the middle of the night, Will Onsetin suddenly woke up and muttered to himself:
"How could her dreams be so dangerous?"
Forget it, just change the goal...... With this in mind, Will Onsetin closed his eyes and fell back asleep.
……
In the morning, Valera woke up from her sleep feeling well in shape.
According to this rhythm of playing, she can recover her damaged physical state in time every day, as long as it continues, it will only be a matter of time before she completely digests the potion in her body.
It's just a bit inefficient, well, and it's unlikely that it will be completely smooth sailing.
In the morning, Ademisor looked for an opportunity to report to her:
"Miss, I got a response."
"Last night, I dreamed of a barren black plain, a pitch-black towering minaret, on which coiled a slowly wriggling silver-white giant serpent, looking at me with cold, merciless red eyes."
"I entered the minaret, went up and down the stairs, through wall after wall, through locked door after door, and at last I found a piece of parchment in a dark corner."
】
"On that piece of paper, the potion recipes for 'monsters' and 'machines' are recorded!"
"I remember, but are they correct?"
Hearing the expected good news, Valera smiled lightly and asked rhetorically:
"Is it the right recipe, can't you feel it yourself?"
"Yes," Ademisor nodded next, looking a little agitated, "I feel they're correct." ”
"Then they're right." Valera said with a smile.
