The source of danger of being promoted to Sequence 4 easily reminds Esther of the topics discussed with Thomas, the extraordinary person of Sequence 4 will be exposed to the level of "divinity", so she will be further influenced by "Zoya" because of this connection?

However, Esther did not feel too flustered, she had already considered praying for protection from the "Fool" before being promoted, and everyone at the tarot meeting knew that Mr. "Fool" could let the "angels" give everyone assistance, which was not a secret, and it was also a kind of protection for the members of the meeting.

However, Mister Fool's protection became a necessity, and Esther had to consider what could be exchanged for something, and if she owed more pages of Rossell's diary for it, she would have to stay in Intisto for a while.

As the location of Russell's birth, there are not too few diary fragments that can be collected, and the most prosperous coastal city in the vicinity, Delis, is a good choice, but Esther needs to explore the underground trading market of the extraordinary, which she plans to ask Aaron and the others, maybe they will know the corresponding channels.

At least I'm pretty proficient in Intis now, and I don't have anything to worry about except that this face doesn't recognize me as a foreigner, and when the time comes, I go to the underground market and release the mask again.

After a little consideration, Esther had a new plan, and now all she had to wait for was a reply from the "mysterious queen" to Aaron.

——

What Esther didn't expect was that before she went out for breakfast, Aaron knocked on her door.

"Miss Hamel, may I come in?" Aaron asked, holding a mass of black cloth wrapped in layers and standing by the door.

Esther immediately retreated to the door and let him in: "Good morning, Mr. Aaron, what are you holding here?" ”

Aaron walked briskly into the room, put the black cloth on the ground, and quickly arranged a spiritual wall around the room:

"My teacher was quite happy with the deal, and she handed it to me this morning with a reply. This magical item is not very stable, and the negative effects are too weird!

"Something in my room disappears for a few seconds and then appears somewhere else...... So I think I'd better bring it to you as soon as possible, so you can suppress it with those points of light. ”

Esther looked at Aaron's eyes with a sense of condemnation, and she even repeated his words: "So you think it's better to bring it to me as soon as possible." ”

"yes, what's the problem? I trust your ability to solve this little thing! Aaron's gaze was sincere, and he meant it.

Esther also helped, and together with Aaron, she unwrapped the layers of black cloth: "If I'm guessing correctly, it's just that your spiritual instincts think it's best to do this." ”

"Yes, so that must be the best solution."

Don't use your blind trust as a reason! As soon as you get out of the "Clover", you let yourself go, and you don't have a captain's shelf at all!? Esther couldn't help but complain frantically in her heart.

Soon the two of them dismantled the black cloth to the innermost layer, and there was only a square box inside, the body of the box seemed to be made of mahogany, and the whole was no more than the size of a palm, but the black cloth occupied a lot of volume.

The lid is carved with a curly pattern of precious gold threads, and from the curled arc there are chaotic hands of varying lengths, and at the bottom, where curves and straight lines are intertwined, a circle of dial-like scales.

Esther's movements stopped suddenly: "Aaron, this is indeed what your teacher gave you, right?" ”

"Yes, a magical item from the 'Parasite' sequence was sent directly by my teacher's messenger."

By the way, the messenger can also deliver things, and the spirit world express ...... Esther tried to dispel the horror of some psychological shadow with the crankiness in her mind, she certainly didn't recognize the coat of arms on the top of the box, but she somehow remembered some angel.

Esther was at a loss, she felt a little sensitive, so she glanced up at Aaron, in the perception she had deliberately let go of a few times before, Aaron, Thomas, and Alexander were all normal, with no signs of parasitism or control.

The appearance of this box may be just accidental, after all, they are all "thieves", and they can't have anything to do with the Amon family, yes, it must be like this......

Esther took a deep breath, lifted the lid of the box, and looked at the contents.

"Smack!"

She slammed the lid shut, and there was a momentary blank in her head.

It's not that someone stole Esther's idea, it's just that she's in the middle of a fear of doubting her life.

Inside the box was a monocle that looked like it had been polished out of crystal.

Breathing stagnantly, memories cluttered, Esther felt a chill creeping up behind her, and the malice of being deceived and teased seemed to lie on top of her head again, mocking her wishful thinking of trying to escape it all.

Esther turned her head and stared at Aaron, "You're not part of the Amon family, are you?" ”

Aaron's eyes were more puzzled than hers: "What are you talking about, why are you suddenly asking this?" Of course I'm not! Don't you know my last name? Delasco, Aaron Delasco. ”

"Alexander, Thomas, Mary, none of them have Amon by name, right?"

Esther's voice trembled as she asked, afraid that the answer would be a smile and a taunt of "you've finally found out."

Aaron was at a loss, wondering why Hamel looked like he was about to pass out: "No, it's inconvenient for them to reveal their surnames because they don't want anyone to find out their origins." But I can assure you that we have nothing to do with the 'thief' family of the Quaternary. ”

Esther looked at the box under her hand, her mood was so complicated that she didn't know what to say, and she didn't look up at Aaron again: "Put this here, you go out first, I have to be quiet." ”

Aaron noticed Hamel's extremely unstable mood, but didn't know why she was like this, so he accepted such an offer for the time being, and once again showed his absolute trust in her: "Okay, then I'll go out first, and then come to me to talk to me about the follow-up when you calm down." ”

When Aaron walked out of the room, he didn't even forget to close the door for Ester.

Esther's hand pressed harder against the wooden box, and she felt the need to lift it to look at it again, and she subconsciously held her breath and reopened the lid.

The monocle is placed on top of a soft black satin folded in several layers, and the shape is clearly carefully designed, not clipped between the eye sockets but on the bridge of the nose, with a bezel and temples. A thin chain hangs from the silver frame, and at the end of the chain hangs a polished, brilliant obsidian, like a crow's eye.

If worn, the lens will be placed in front of the wearer's right eye.

This made Esther feel her eyebrows start to throb again, and she couldn't even think just by staring at the monocle. The Harbinger attached a portion of the light to it, and Esther quickly looked away and closed the lid again, only then did she feel her breathing again.

Didn't that "mystery queen" really plan to solve me this way? Or did she know Amon?

Esther felt that her entire experience aboard the Four Leaf Clover was starting to become unreal, but were the people she met really herself? Or did she step into another trap again, they had all been parasitized by Amon, and the relationship they had been together for the past two months was all a scam......

She salvaged her fearful thoughts back in time, and after a few deep breaths, Esther calmed down again, out of the trance that had made her doubt everything.

She rubbed it her right eyebrow, and entered the reasoning mentality that a "decryption scholar" should have.

After rational consideration, Esther confirms the conclusion that it is "impossible".

Amon's essence had already appeared, and he wouldn't go to such great lengths to get a pirate ship to play with him again. The "Mysterious Queen" is not low, especially the "blasphemy card" in her hand, which is enough to assist her in divining Aaron's abnormality.

Esther had seen the "Mystic Queen", and judging by the lady's attention to Russell Gustav, a time-traveler senior, she was the one who knew some of the information about the "Otherworld", including the various fairy tale spells.

This is not equal to the information gap that Amon once shown, and Amon has never shown interest in Russell, so it is normal for the "mysterious queen" herself to be eighty percent.

So is this pair of monocles a coincidence? Or did the "Mystery Queen" not understand that there was a problem with the "Thief" pathway, and simply obtained this thing, and then stayed with her?

Yes, Aaron said that Trier was once the capital of the Tudor Empire in the Quaternary Age, and the angel family that supported the establishment of the Tudor Empire at that time had a "thief" path, so it was very likely that they would encounter such a form of seal.

But in every sense of the word, Esther was deeply uneasy.

It's not like she's never seen anyone else wearing monocles, it's not a very rare ornament in the North Continent, Rune and Intis are everywhere, she shouldn't make such a fuss.

It's just that the psychological shadow is a bit heavy.

Esther grabbed the wooden box, placed it on the coffee table, lowered her eyes and sketched the shape of the ball of light in her mind, opening up the chaotic state of perception.

She lifted the lid again and looked inside, but there was no black hole silhouette in the worst of expectations, much to Esther's relief.

The outer frame of this pair of glasses is blurry, just an ordinary material, but the lenses are like a group of translucent worms hugging each other, and most of the worms are distorted, not as clear as the "Time Worm" that Esther has seen, and it does not look stable.

This is in line with the chaotic state of magical items, and Esther's "spiritual intuition" does not give her any warning in return, and it seems that this thing is indeed just an extraordinary object.

Esther reopened her eyes and returned to normal vision, this time she had the courage to take the glasses out of the box.

She touched the obsidian at the end of the chain and gave up on the idea of wearing it after a moment.

Even knowing that it wasn't the same monocle, Esther always felt panicked.

If I knew that it was such a "terrible" shape, it was better to ask the "mysterious queen" to smash it directly, leaving only the extraordinary characteristics of the "parasite", out of sight and out of mind......
