Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

As soon as they stepped into the cabin, a group of sailors focused their attention on Klein and the eye-catching skylark on his shoulder.

This doesn't match the temperament of the crazy adventurer Gehrman Sparrow. No one has ever heard of him keeping a pet, let alone a bird that looks so weak.

"Hello everyone."

Then the bird spoke!

"Extraordinary creatures" is a good excuse. The pets of crazy adventurers can never be ordinary birds, which makes the crew of "Future" feel that things are much more reasonable.

Klein looked around and said in an arrogant tone, "There are fewer people than I imagined."

Cattleya had nothing to shy away from, she graciously admitted this, because the place she was going to was very dangerous, so she dispersed most of the sailors to other ships, and only ensured that the ship could sail normally.

The deal between "The Hermit" and "The World" was witnessed by "The Fool" at the Tarot meeting, and Cattleya was not worried about any malicious actions from the other party.

Even the skylark full of light may be the witness of "The Fool" for this transaction. Could it be that its real body is some kind of envoy?
Esther observed Cattleya's peculiar pupil color curiously. She hadn't developed the habit of stealing people's ideas anytime and anywhere, otherwise Esther would definitely be dumbfounded by Cattleya's brain supplement.

Klein greeted the first mate, "Toxin Expert" Frank Lee, and under the guidance of this fanatical breed hybrid technology enthusiast, several people walked up the stairs.

Esther and Klein turned their heads at the same time, their eyes falling in the shadows on the side.

The darkness distorts the shape, condensing into a complete figure, tall and pale, with a sense of weakness from a serious illness.

When Frank introduced Klein with a smile, the second officer of the "Future", "Bloodless" Heath Doyle was staring at Klein in a daze.

To be precise, he was staring at the skylark squatting on Klein's shoulder.

Esther felt a faintly familiar extraordinary power: "'Secret Prayer'?"

Originally Frank was going to answer, but Heath responded to Skylark's question one step ahead of him: "Yes."

This is very inconsistent with his character. Cattleya and Frank showed curiosity at the same time, but Heath just nodded at Klein, and then stepped back, trying to shrink back into the shadows.

Esther flew straight up and landed on top of Heath before he disappeared completely into darkness.

Heath's body immediately froze in place, and Esther blinked at Klein: "It's okay, you guys go first."

Klein wasn't sure what Esther wanted to do, but the fellow had a sense of proportion in this kind of thing... Generally speaking.

What made Cattleya and Frank feel relieved was that Heath also nodded to them, expressing that it was okay, and then they continued to walk along the corridor, leading Klein to the captain's cabin, and gave "Gehrman Spa The room arranged by "Luo" is also over there.

Frank couldn't help asking: "That lark of yours can not only talk, but also distinguish the sequence of Extraordinary? What path does it use?"

"I don't know either." Klein put on a "ask three questions" posture, because he really doesn't know what path Esther should be. The combination of "parasite" and "fate" is inherently strange.

Cattleya pushed her glasses, and became more and more suspicious that it was the means of protection given to "The World" by "The Fool". Although she really wanted to take another look, she also knew that she couldn't see the essence of that extraordinary power clearly. Apart from adding more Unnecessary curiosity will not yield much.

Frank introduced enthusiastically: "Heath is a 'Rose Bishop'."

Klein instantly had the idea of ​​going back and bringing Esther back.

"But don't worry haha, he is not a believer in the 'True Creator', but he is very lucky. Because of an accident, he was sprinkled with the potion of 'Rose Bishop', and after being infiltrated by the power contained in it, he finally became inexplicable. became extraordinary."

Klein glanced at Cattleya and saw the helplessness on the captain's face. Frank almost poured out all the second officer's information, without treating Klein as an outsider at all.

After the three of them got away, Heath shrank back into the darkness a little more, making sure that he was completely integrated into it.He put his arms over his head, let the strange skylark jump up, held it up to his eyes and studied it.

In other words, his eyes were wide open and his eyes were small, Heath kept something, his face full of hesitation and hesitation.

Esther chuckled and asked him, "Do you want to listen to music?"

Heath froze for a few seconds, not quite understanding what the bird meant, but since it fell, Heath could feel that his mental state had stabilized.

Out of the peaceful feedback given to him by his spiritual intuition, Heath finally nodded: "Okay."

Esther deliberately lowered her voice, and the melancholy and melancholic tone soon lingered around Heath, and his long-standing abnormal thirst for flesh and blood and the crazy awareness of inner division gradually faded away.

Half of Heath's figure was dissolved in the darkness, and only half was standing in the corner, carrying the softly singing lark. His head drooped little by little, as if he had fallen into a peaceful sleep.

It wasn't until the tone quieted down that Heath raised his head again, and with an indescribably surprised look, he looked at the little bird the size of a fist again: "Very... nice."

"Thank you for your appreciation." The little bird touched its chest with its wings and bowed slightly, its voice full of smiles.

"What's this song called?"

"cuckoo."

"Are you a cuckoo?" Heath couldn't help asking.

Esther laughed helplessly: "Haha, of course not, I'm Lark."

This kind of self-introduction felt even weirder, so Esther immediately said again: "You can call me Norns."

"Nons..."

Heath's face was no longer so pale and gloomy, and Lark's singing had a strong soothing effect on him, dispelling most of the negative effects of "Rose Bishop".Although he didn't understand the reason for this, Heath was still grateful.

"I'm going after Gehrman, good night, Mr. Doyle."

"Heath."

Skylark let out a soft chuckle, spread its wings and flew towards the end of the corridor, Heath watched the shimmering feathers passing by its head, and frowned slightly.

But he didn't stay in place for long, and soon, his whole body fell into the shadow of the dark place, and he didn't know where he went.

-

Esther didn't chase in the direction of the captain's cabin, and didn't go to find Klein who had been assigned a room. She followed some attractive spiritual guidance and flew to the upper cabin.

At the door of a house wrapped in spiritual power, Skylark circled twice hesitantly. The place is full of "secret" magic traces, but the other party deliberately left a gap to let the kind of temptation that is full of temptation to Esther. The breath spread out.

Finally, Esther made up her mind and jumped into the gap where the door was open.The moment the skylark flew in, the door closed automatically and merged with the wall, leaving only a solid cabin wall with no trace of passage left.

Inside the door, there was only a woman with long chestnut hair gathered around her shoulders. She was wearing a white shirt with lace trim, a dark blue coat that was slim and simple, and her lower body was wearing beige trousers and tall black leather boots. Put it in your boots.

Even though she is beautiful, the elegance and nobility of her body also bring coercion in her temperament. What makes Esther even more afraid is her strength, including her identity.

The breath of the item that made her crave dissipated, but Esther was not in a hurry.She already knew what that thing was, and also knew that the other party was just setting up a bait to attract her to communicate alone, and she didn't intend to ask Esther to "advance" the payment.

The woman was sitting on a rattan high-backed chair, her clear blue eyes looked gentle. Although she was smiling, it was only out of politeness.

"Good night, Queen of Mysteries." Esther landed on the top of another empty chair, grabbed the edge of the back of the chair to stand firm, and lowered her head as a salute.

"I didn't expect to see you again so soon, Hamel. Last month, Aaron sent a letter saying that you planned to go to Tilis after you separated from them. He didn't dare to divination about your situation, so he couldn't help me to investigate you again." What happened afterward."

"Queen of Mysteries", perhaps we should call her Bernadette Gustave. Ever since she learned of her messenger summoning spell, Esther knew that the other party and "Rosell Gustave" The relationship between a time traveler senior.

Bernadette's gaze paused for a moment on the lark's laurel-yellow tufted feathers and bald wingtips: "It seems that you have successfully promoted to 'Parasite', congratulations."

"It's not pleasant, but it was safe and sound. It's also very... Well, thank you very much for the extraordinary item you provided." Thinking of the pair of monocles, Esther's words were not particularly sincere.

She has to admit she's a little shadowy.

"I didn't expect you to act together with the 'Dark Emperor'. I thought you would stay on the coast of the Middle Sea for other missions."

Esther didn't deny it, just blinked and remained silent.

She didn't quite understand why the other party confused Klein with his teacher, the "Dark Emperor". Could it be that the "world" didn't want her to be exposed, so it led the temptation from the outside world to Gehrman Sparrow?
"I originally thought you would stay on the 'Clover'. Your specialness should be enough to help Aaron achieve his promotion ceremony." Bernadette tapped her finger on the armrest, without any regret in her words. Emotions.

Esther shook her head: "I have to go back to Gehrman, just as he wants to go to the special sea area to the east, I also want to follow him to see."

Bernadette nodded: "You were helping Heath stabilize his state just now, is this some kind of ability that belongs to you?"

Skylark was quiet for a few seconds, then shook its tail feathers uneasily: "Part of it is the ability, and part of it...maybe because of the special connection in mysticism. It's just my guess. I won't try to prove it. It would be too risky."

The corners of Bernadette's lips turned up, and she made a joke: "Are you a believer in the true Creator?"

Skylark opened and closed his mouth, but shook his head helplessly.

Bernadette didn't delve into this point: "Okay, when I enter that sea area, please help me pay more attention to Heath's situation. By the way, please keep the matter of me on this ship a secret."

"Then why did you call me here?" Esther asked suspiciously, "To confirm my status?"

Bernadette's eyes were calm and unwavering: "To ensure that you will not pose a threat to others."
