Lord of the Mysteries 2: Circle of Inevitability

The owl's brown eye whites and black eyes seemed to glow with a little fluorescence in the night, and it looked at Lumian in a posture that was closer to looking down.

Lumian was no longer as frightened as the previous two times and cursed in a deep voice:

"What are you looking at?

"You can speak up if you can!"

He didn't necessarily want to offend the owl across from him, but he wanted to inspire the other person to show his true purpose in this way. Otherwise, it would be quite scary to see him flying from time to time at night, just looking at him like this.

The owl remained silent and did not even hoot.

After a few seconds, it spread its wings again and flew out into the depths of the night.

"You're mentally ill!" Lumian scolded him, but he didn't dare to relax at all.

He still looked outside intently, carefully distinguishing all the dark shadows in the night.

He remembered clearly that he saw Naroka's figure after the owl came last time, and heard the news of Naroka's death after dawn.

I wonder if something similar will happen this time... Lumian observed carefully and found nothing unusual.

He breathed a sigh of relief, closed the curtains, and lay back on the bed.

In the deep darkness, Lumian opened his eyes and thought about his next plan:

"I don't know what this owl wants to do... It behaves so strangely and mysteriously, it shouldn't be a good thing...

"Ignore it, anyway, given the situation in the village, I have to pull Aurore away quickly. After that, I don't believe it can follow to Trier!

“If we don’t receive a call back tomorrow, we will have to forcefully escape from Kordu the morning after tomorrow…

"If there is a call back, then Aurore and I will go down the mountain from the village entrance openly. If not, well... tomorrow is Lent, and everyone is still celebrating the day after tomorrow, so they won't pay so much attention, so Aurore can Go to Mrs. Pualis to borrow her pony and play in the nearby alpine pasture. This does not require going down the mountain. It is not like leaving Cordu. It should not attract too much attention from the investigators. When the time comes, you can use A dangerous path leads out of the mountains over there...

"It's not a road at all. It's cut off in several places. Even the shepherds don't think it's possible to go down the mountain on it. However, with my current ability, there's no problem in passing it. And Aurore knows witchcraft and can fly a certain distance. , it must be easier than me...

"There is great hope that this will be hidden from the eyes of investigators..."

After becoming a "Hunter", many things that could not be done before can now be done. This gave Lumian great confidence and allowed him to quickly formulate a plan.

His heart became calm, and he became much calmer, and the rest of his sleep was very solid.

…………

The next morning, Lumian got up early and got busy in the kitchen.

Thinking that he had become an extraordinary person and that he and his sister were about to leave the anomaly-filled Kordu Village, his mood became quite good, and he even had the urge to hum.

When Aurore came downstairs, two bowls of bolognese noodles were already on the table.

"How do you know I'm getting up soon?" she asked happily.

Lumian smiled and said:

"I started cooking noodles when I heard some noise in the bathroom."

At the same time, he muttered in his heart:

As expected, you would be in a state of confusion for a while after waking up, as usual, and you didn't even expect this.

Aurore nodded, sat down at the dining table, and asked casually:

"Last night at midnight, that owl flew here again?"

"Yes." Lumian knew that his sister had discovered that he stayed up late at night and looked out the window.

Fortunately, the owl appeared, otherwise he wouldn't know how to explain it.

You can’t say you’re too excited after becoming an Extraordinary, right?

In that case, re-education from my sister is indispensable.

However, Lumian did not intend to hide this matter from his sister for too long, because it would affect Aurore's decision-making in many matters.

He told his sister about this when he was planning to forcefully escape from Kordu the day after tomorrow, so that she would not have to distract herself from taking care of him.

At that time, under the urgent situation, Auroer would not have time to educate him.

"Strange owl..." Aurore frowned slightly, looking confused.

She couldn't figure out what the owl wanted to do, it just came to look at it every time.

Lumian sucked up the noodles and waited until he was almost done eating before saying to Aurore:

“If we get a call back, we will leave Kordu village this evening and take the usual road down the mountain.

"If you don't receive a call back, you can borrow the pony from Mrs. Pualis tomorrow morning, and we'll go to the nearest alpine pasture. I know there is a trail leading down the mountain, but those investigators will definitely not know."

Aurore played with her hair with her fingers and thought carefully.

After a while, she smiled and said:

"Yes, the probability of success of this plan is quite high."

She then clicked her tongue and said:

"My idiot brother has grown up."

Lumian was overjoyed and quite proud.

…………

After breakfast, he excused himself to see if Ava was ready for the blessing parade of the "Spring Spirit". He left the two-story semi-ground building and went straight to the old tavern.

After becoming an Extraordinary, he was eager to learn more common sense.

And the lady said she would tell him!

Walking not far from the old tavern, Lumian saw an acquaintance coming towards him.

www.youxs.org, the priest’s younger brother.

"There is only one person..." www.youxs.org couldn't help but have a bright smile on his face.

Having just gained extraordinary strength, he was eager to try it out and wanted to find someone to practice with.

"Hi, my illegitimate son." Lumian greeted, "How dare you go out alone without my permission from dad?"

www.youxs.org, let him take the initiative to attack and not escape in advance.

www.youxs.org, saw him.

The villain's expression changed slightly, he turned around and started running wildly.

Rub rub... Lumian was a little dumbfounded when he saw this guy disappearing at an intersection not far away.

"He ran really fast...

"Quite alert..."

Lumian sighed silently.

www.youxs.org, www.youxs.org, after all, the two have never really fought each other, and they are full of confidence in each other. Who knows, www.youxs.org, it seems like they have encountered a beast.

It's impossible for him to know that I secretly became an Extraordinary last night... Could it be that because this guy is too stupid and has no brains, he has gained beast-like intuition and can smell danger? www.youxs.org.

He didn't try to catch up, because as soon as he said "hello", he regretted it:

The village is full of abnormalities and the situation is quite dangerous. Before leaving, it is better to have one more thing than one less thing!

www.youxs.org, let the priest and his gang launch their plan in advance, which would affect his and Aurore's escape, and Lumian couldn't even cry.

Moreover, the priest's group is mysterious, www.youxs.org. Lumian feels that if he really wants to fight with him, his identity as an extraordinary person will be exposed, which will cause trouble in the future.

"I suddenly became an Extraordinary. I was a little too proud and arrogant, and I couldn't control myself..." Lumian made a profound self-examination, and then walked into the old tavern.

He planned to go directly to the second floor, but saw the lady sitting in the corner.

Today she was wearing a pearl gray dress and a light-colored soft hat. There was no food placed in front of her.

"Have you had breakfast?" Lumian walked over and sat across from him.

"Not yet." The lady replied casually, "I made an appointment with someone today, and I'm still waiting for her."

she? It's not me... Lumian looked around and saw no one else except the tavern owner.

He looked at the lady again and said sincerely:

"I became a 'hunter'."

It's time for you to fulfill your promise and teach me more common sense.

The lady was not surprised at all, she smiled slightly and said:

"The condition is not bad."

She paused and said in a slightly erratic voice:

"What you need to master now are two laws and one method."

Why is it like studying physics... Lumian didn't dare to speak.

The lady continued:

"For most extraordinary people, this knowledge is extremely precious and worth all they have to exchange for it. But for you, since you have destiny, I will tell you for free."

Free is the most expensive, so where will I pay the price? Lumian felt a little heavy for no reason.

After becoming a "Hunter", his intuition and observation ability were significantly enhanced. At this moment, he clearly felt that the indescribable special emotion in the eyes of the lady opposite appeared again, stronger than before, but he still couldn't tell what the emotion was.

The lady sat up slightly and said:

"The source of all extraordinary power can be traced back to the original Creator. As a believer in the 'Eternal Blazing Sun', you should know very well that His eyes turned into the sun."

"Yes." Lumian listened to the priest's sermon.

"This is actually a symbolic description." The lady explained simply, "In short, the original Creator created this world and created many gods, and eventually it collapsed itself and split into different ways. Extraordinary characteristics.”

"That's why it's called 'God's Path'?" Lumian suddenly realized.

The lady nodded gently:

"Yes, the sequence 0 of each path is equal to the true god. For example, the sequence 0 of the 'Singer' path is called 'sun', which is the 'eternal blazing sun' you believe in."

Can every extraordinary person become a god in the end? Lumian was extremely shocked.

At the same time, he was filled with joy and inexplicable fear.

If he were a devout believer in the "Eternal Blazing Sun", he would have already accused the lady opposite of him of blasphemy, but unfortunately, he was not. He was the kind of person who would just follow everyone and believe it, and it didn't matter if he didn't believe it.

He even asked:

"What is Sequence 0 of the 'Hunter' pathway called, and what about the 'Peeper' pathway?"

"Didn't I tell you? 'Red Priest', this position is still vacant." The lady laughed and shook her head, "Sequence 0 of the 'Peeper' path is called 'Hermit', and it is currently occupied by an evil god. . His name is the 'Hidden Sage', and he likes to instill knowledge into extraordinary people of the same path. In professional terms, it is called 'knowledge chasing people'. A large part of your sister's problem comes from this."

"Is that so..." Lumian began to hate the "Hidden Sage".

The woman changed the subject back on track:

“Precisely because the extraordinary characteristics come from the original Creator, they will not disappear or increase, but will only be transformed from one form to another, and from one object to another.

"This is called the law of immortality of extraordinary characteristics."
