"Before I found this place, I happened to check out the orphanage and the abandoned ship repair shop. Guess what I found?"
The girl nodded her chin strangely, as if she didn't understand what the other party was talking about.
"Let me count...including the staff, the nuns, and the children, there are exactly thirteen corpses. If there is no mistake in the records I have read, then the gentle Ariel Mr. Kesey, and the children who left the orphanage early should all be there."
Ulysses Philip ruthlessly proclaimed the conclusion, but the girl's doubts did not diminish in the slightest, and her emotions hardly produced any unnecessary fluctuations.
"What are you talking about, they have already found a new home?"
This time, the surprised person was Phillip, who blinked as if he understood something.
"So that's the way it is. Is this the world you see? You don't know what death is at all, and you're just filling your stomach with your instincts."
He left the sofa and walked in front of the girl,
"Let me introduce myself, miss. I am Ulysses Philip, a fairly good educator, and at the same time, I will be your future teacher."
The girl looked up at the strange man who claimed to be her teacher, hesitated but instinctively said her name.
"Vill Farmini... What do you mean by teacher, what will you teach me?"
"I'll teach you how to stop being hungry."
-
"The teacher is really evil...how could Weier do such a cruel thing?"
Famini angrily interrupted Philip's memory and threatened not to continue massaging Philip's shoulders.
.......
So where is the real story?
Chapter 3 Lost Time
As time enters autumn, the streets of Paris show a different scene.
The cool wind blows across the Champs-Elysées Avenue, and on the green ground on both sides of the road, the leaves of the plane trees are piled up into a brown-red graceful carpet.
The sunlight shines on the ground and the river through the sparse gaps between the branches and leaves, leaving only dull spots of light that are slightly brighter than the dead leaves.
The sound of ding-ding-dong-dong construction still enveloped the main parts of the city, but it was not very annoying.
Ella sat sideways at the bedroom window, holding an unnamed black magic manuscript in her hand.
It was one of the textbooks sent by Fred. Although some of the spell usage methods recorded in it were too evil and extreme, even if she didn't plan to use them in the future, the whole learning process would still help her deepen her understanding of magic.
There is still a whole pile of manuscripts and printed textbooks like this on the desk, including the parts that Kleist harvested and compiled in the Sibylla Mine.
As a result, Ella obtained the theoretical information of several other talismans in the "Seven Chapters of the Xuanjun", but because of language and cultural differences and the difficult deciphering process, she can only use the first two for the time being.
As Fred said, this kind of resource is irreplaceable, no matter what kind of genius it is, it is impossible to use the so-called talent to make up the gap in accumulation.The wisdom of the predecessors is a shortcut. Standing on the shoulders of giants to look at the world, no matter the field of vision or the angle of view, there will be a world of difference from your own exploration.
Time seems to have returned to the time when I was studying at Kraft. I only spent time immersing myself in the abyss of magic knowledge every day, or chatting with my friends to pass the time.Forget about your worries about the future for the time being, and you don’t have to worry about your current safety issues at all.
But this unchanging life was broken by today's visiting guests.
Fred completed the transmission channel from Faust Manor to Champs Elysees No. 30, and the solidified transmission array was placed in the underground wine cellar. From today onwards, it can be regarded as one of the alliance's fixed strongholds.
It is worth mentioning that Fred mentioned that the wooden house in the town of Glamis was transferred to the name of Mephisto by Mr. Hans Turner at a price of 1200 pounds, and everything there remained as it was.
Ella breathed a sigh of relief, she was very grateful for this, and said that she would return to that place sooner or later.
"So you came here this time just to complete the establishment of the teleportation array? You just need to use a messenger to notify me of that kind of work."
She expressed doubts. In fact, with Fred providing detailed coordinates, most of the wizards in this building can complete this work independently.
"I'm here to pick you up to Faust this time. Get ready now. You're going to attend an important meeting."
"I also need to go?"
Ella was taken aback.
"Yes, everyone, including those two dirty little girls, are going too."
Fred's meaning was indisputable, and he urged Ella to pack up and salute. It was expected that they would need to stay in Faust Manor for a few more days.
According to Fred, Victoria was not originally a person who had to be present, but if she stayed here, she would need to leave another person to monitor, which was not worth the candle.
On the teleportation array underground in the wine cellar, valuable magic crystals were burning violently.With Ella's current understanding of magic, she immediately noticed that this kind of "door" is fundamentally different from the executor's exclusive contact point.
Kraft's contact points all over the world can be teleported freely within a certain range, which will not consume magic crystals or other alternative expensive resources.Because they are built on the natural joints of the leylines, which are filled with stable and huge magic power.
What Fred and the others built was a channel that was manually calculated and stabilized through spells. Each activation and use required a huge amount of magic power.The magic crystal consumed for just one transmission is worth thousands of francs.
Ella calculated her wealth, and she probably could only sustain two round trips at most.Looking at Fred who remained calm, she gained a new understanding of the pure-blood family's assets.
The dizziness from the teleportation lasted only a few seconds before Ella fully recovered, and she noticed that she was in a strange space of colorful soap bubbles, like a disturbed palette or childish patterns drawn in stick figures .
Different from her previous experience, as her magic power increases, she can faintly feel that her state in this space is not stable.When approaching a different space, the rejection of the material world is obviously magnified, but it is within an acceptable range after all.
In this color block, something seems to be moving quickly and soundlessly.Ella felt as if something wet had licked her skin, the slippery coldness was like the tentacles of snakes or molluscs.
"Who?"
The sense of strangeness made Ella turn her head suddenly, and the flower-like color blocks were smudged in the invisible space, but there was nothing else.
At this time, Ayla felt the pull from the outside world, and the figure quickly disappeared.
When Ella opened her eyes again, she found that she was in an unknown building, but even so, from its unique decoration style, it could be recognized that this place was probably a certain room in Faust Manor.
When she stepped out of the altar-shaped magic circle, and her figure was completely outlined into a solid body, Ella noticed that everyone present seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Because of this strange atmosphere, Ella asked cautiously:
"What's wrong?"
Fred looked up at the clock on the wall, and returned:
"You arrived a full 10 minutes later than we did."
People who use the "door" at the same time may not reach the other end at the same time, especially in long-distance teleportation magic, but generally speaking, this error is in seconds.
Individuals with powerful magical powers will arrive later than others, which is common sense in occult science everywhere.But even if the alchemy props are counted, Ella's magic power is definitely weaker than Fred's, so a full 10-minute time error is absolutely abnormal.
"Did you feel anything unusual during the transmission?"
Fred asked in a low voice.
Ella recalled the strange feeling as if she was being watched by some kind of creature, and now it seems that it is not an illusion.
Before she could speak, Fred seemed to have read the answer from Ella's eyes, and he held out a finger to signal the girl to silence.
"Don't talk about it, it has the potential to strengthen an invisible bond."
Ayla frowned. She had a similar experience in a dream a few months ago. She thought that the creature from another space had left, but the creature still seemed to be lingering in the shadows.
Chapter 4 The Guests of Faust Manor
Most of the strange creatures that can stay in the material space are dangerous and weird. Although this does not mean that they must be very powerful, the unknown is always the most fearful thing.
"I will find a way to ensure the safety of the transmission in the future, but there is no point in thinking about it now, let's go, there are many people waiting for you."
With that said, Fred nodded his cane and strode forward.
Servants were already waiting in line outside the building, and they prepared gorgeous open carriages.
During the movement, Ella noticed that this seemed to be a not-so-remote turret in Faust Manor. For safety reasons, the teleportation array was placed not far from the main castle.
"Who will come here?"
Ella asked about Ling, who was sitting on her left. Just like a few years ago, the latter always acted a little inexplicably restrained in Faust Manor and was completely different from when he was outside.
Ling's reaction was half a beat slow before he replied:
"It should be other members of the alliance. Maybe we will see acquaintances in school."
"Is that right?"
Ella is looking forward to the next meeting.
The carriage passed the avenue in front of the turret, and there were still a few minutes left to the main castle. The dark black Faust main castle gradually appeared at the end of the boulevard.
Ella couldn't help but recall the last time she was at Faust Manor, when she and Ling came here to celebrate Christmas Eve.
Even though it was still noon, the light in the corridor seemed a bit dim, and a few torches and candlesticks lit up the dark red tapestry.
Val Farmigne looked around curiously, almost never letting go of any details in the passage, unexpectedly, Mephisto's style seemed to suit his taste.
Fittili couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, this gloomy style reminded her of the ancient castle in Enoch.
Although somewhat similar, the filthy blood girl quickly noticed the essential difference between the two. The darkness of Mephisto is more like the chill of winter and the silence of an ancient battlefield. The coldness is completely different.
Victoria Milusel just followed behind everyone silently, and was not bound by magic.
After Victoria was disarmed, she was just an immature dirty blood, and any wizard in Faust Manor could control her actions.
After Fittili talked with Victoria, the girl's eyes seemed to be a little more angry, but that was all.She still just followed behind everyone obediently, without saying a word.
Hyde appeared to be quite at ease, and he went back and forth between Faust and the White Rose over the years.As the heir designated by Straw, he has a very high status in the alliance and is usually received as a VIP.
To be honest, Hyde is quite disapproving of the so-called "VIP treatment" of the Mephisto family. Mephisto's so-called attention to this is obviously not comparable to that of Belusay, who is also a pure-blood wizard family.
"Simon."
The old butler Simon nodded in response, impeccable in etiquette.
"Master, Lady Diana and the guests who can arrive today are already in the reception room."
Ella heard Ling mention her adoptive mother, Lady Diana, who seemed to be a very strong woman in a certain sense.Ella couldn't help laughing when she thought of Fred Mephisto being controlled by the economy and secretly saving private money as a last resort.
Unfortunately, the last time Ella came here, she didn't have a chance to meet her.
Follow Simon's footsteps to the reception room on the right side of the main hall. In front of the spacious stone door, there are two brass-colored knight armors. They look very old and even have traces of blood rust.
There are sofas facing each other in the circular room, and five to six people are sitting there chatting about something.Ella saw a very familiar tall figure there, and she almost subconsciously called out a name:
"Professor Adolf?!"
