The carpet, walls and the sky outside the window returned to their normal colors. The two looked at each other without speaking for a long time.
"I didn't expect that the power of Bansy Harbor actually hides so many mysteries, involving the war of the last era, the power of 'Calamity', and secrets that even Mr. Azik dare not touch..."
Angel said slowly, looking down at the two Silver Charm on the table, as if there was a "Calamity" Charm made with her blood sandwiched between them.
Suddenly, she felt a not strong, but very warm force coming from her shoulders.
Klein came to Angel at some point, hugged her and held her in his arms.
The soft touch made her feel very comfortable. Instead of hugging him with her backhand like usual, she lowered her head slightly and rubbed herself deep into Klein's embrace.
The hesitation in my heart was relieved by this intimate gesture.
"Don't worry, we have left Bansy Harbor. The mutations there have nothing to do with us anymore. Mr. Azik will also help continue to find the truth... I also have some methods to avoid a certain degree of risk and explore this power. Do you remember Leonard's evaluation of us?"
Klein whispered words next to Angel's ears, and the air flow made her hair itch.
"What's your evaluation? Expert of divination?"
Bracing herself, she cracked corny jokes.
This sentence successfully made the other party laugh, and she herself was infected by the smile. The two of them stayed close to each other, smiling silly, until the red, yellow and other bright colors beside them flashed, and a not-so-tall figure returned to the living room again.
"By the way, I think it's time for you, especially Angel, to have your own messenger... I'm sorry, did I come at the wrong time?"
The soft voice of Azik came, and then suddenly interrupted. Angel raised his head in confusion and looked at the bronze-skinned Gentlemen. The three of them looked at each other, and the room fell into an awkward silence.
Angel once saw two messengers, Daly Simone who had only a mouth and a floating tongue with a hand, Spirit Body, and Azik who summoned White Bone Giant through Copper Whistle.
At this time, Azik was using his White Bone Giant as an example to explain how to summon and use the messenger. He blew Copper Whistle to make White Bone Messenger, which could go through the ceiling, appear in the living room. The latter was not as arrogant as usual, but obediently lowered his body and showed his upper body in front of several people.
For some reason, when it changed its posture, it quietly moved away from Klein and narrowed the distance to Angel.
"To get your own messenger, you must first design an accurate summoning ritual and prepare the corresponding Spirit World Creature contract. These all belong to the knowledge related to death and Spirit World. messing around can easily attract things with bad intentions."
But the two messengers I saw were quite friendly. Well, maybe the unfriendly ones had already killed the contractors and ran away, just like those unfortunate victims of Trier Underground Catacombs... After being frightened, Angel got rid of the decadent state and muttered in his heart.
Azik did not notice her thoughts and continued:
"There are two ways to obtain a messenger. Either summon the corresponding Spirit World Creature through an accurate description in the ceremony, sign a contract with it, and let it serve you; or directly enter Spirit World, find the messenger you need there, and sign a contract with it directly. Of course, the premise is to obtain its consent, otherwise it will be very dangerous.
"Based on your situation, I recommend using the first method. Although it is easy to attract weird or dangerous Evil Spirit depending on the description, just like the popular Intis and Street Turntable Game. Every summon is a lottery, but I can provide description sentences that have been tested for a long time to avoid dangerous situations to the greatest extent. Of course, this kind of summons may not necessarily get the most satisfactory messenger, and you can only choose some that are not bad or good."
"Is your messenger good, not bad, or very good?"
Klein couldn't help but ask. He looked curiously at White Bone Messenger with Black Flame burning in his eyes. The latter squirmed again and moved further away from him, making him somewhat suspicious that the White Bone Messenger summoned at this time was the one who died while blocking the gun in the battle with Mr. A, and was resurrected by Underworld.
"They are rather special. They do not belong to Spirit World, but from Underworld. Of course, if you are lucky, you can also find similar ones."
It seems that he belongs to the very good category... Angel looked up at the messenger, feeling a little envious.
"So, who of you wants to give it a try?"
After explaining the relevant knowledge, Azik looked at the two "students" with some expectancy, like a teacher waiting to ask questions.
"You go first, I can temporarily use Copper Whistle to summon Mr. Azik's messenger."
Klein whispered.
He wanted me to try it under the protection of Mr. Azik... Angel felt a warmth in his heart and nodded.
After arranging Wall of Spirituality, Azik easily filled the internal space with the power of the necromantic realm, which belonged to the "related fields" he mentioned. If Beyonder from the death realm was not present, they would have to find the relevant Mystical Item or Beyonder Ingredients before they could try to perform the ritual.
After setting up the altar and lighting the candles that symbolized him, Angel watched the other two people retreat to the wall. Under the wave of Mr. Azik, their figures were covered by a thick mist. Then he chanted in Ancient Hermes:
"Me!
"I call in my name:
"A spirit that wanders in illusion, a friendly creature that can be driven..."
The first description is the format necessary for the ritual directed to Spirit World, similar to "Wandering in the Upper Realm" and other sentences; the second sentence is a specific description of the messenger, which can be modified according to your own needs. This sentence provided by Mr. Azik can avoid Evil Spirit who is "evil", "hates humanity" and "unwilling to be driven".
And then the last sentence...
"...a messenger who can travel quickly to and from various places."
This sentence can also be changed according to needs. Angel wants a messenger who specializes in delivering letters, so this sentence has precise descriptions such as "fast" and "messenger".
Huh——
A gloomy wind blew by, the surrounding temperature dropped sharply, and the light of the sacrificial candles swayed and became dim.
In her Spirit Vision, a white-feathered bird with flapping wings fell from the sky. Before it fell to the floor, it regained its balance, turned upward at an extremely fast speed, flew up quickly, and circled around her several times.
Success!
Angel was a little excited. She had already prepared to fail and even summon strange creatures. Unexpectedly, she found Spirit World Creature that matched her description for the first time.
They can fly, they don't get violent and hurt people, and birds are also the earliest and most reliable messengers, which seems pretty good.
But unfortunately, it's too small...
For some unknown reason, this bird, which was only the size of Angel's thumb, stayed on the altar, tilted its head and looked at her, its almost invisible green eyes blinking.
Not to mention delivering the letter safely, I'm afraid a gust of wind, well, a gust of Spirit World wind blew by on the way, blowing away the bird and the letter...
Sighing, Angel gave it an apologetic look, and said like a boss who cruelly rejects applicants:
"Me! I end this call in my name!"
As the repatriation spell Ancient Hermes was recited, the thumb bird fluttered and disappeared on the altar. The surrounding breeze also stopped blowing, and the candlelight returned to stability.
Licking her dry lips, Angel looked at Klein and Mr. Azik in the corner, both of whom gave her an encouraging smile.
After re-adjusting her mood, she held the ceremony again. This time, she tried to change the content of the last sentence to avoid the same problem.
The speed of light is not enough... it must at least be able to pick up the letter and deliver the letter to the other party safely and accurately...
After thinking for a moment, Angel chanted:
"Me!
"I call in my name:
"Spirit that wanders in the void, friendly creatures that can be driven, powerful and wise extraordinary beings."
Bang——
There was a sound as if the floor was being smashed. Angel opened Spirit Vision and looked at the altar. A huge figure two and a half meters tall appeared, with his head almost touching the ceiling, even blocking the light of the candles.
This was a giant with strong muscles, strong armor, and a friendly face. He was very similar to the Father Utravsky she knew from Harvest Church in Backlund. Perhaps he also had the bloodline of Feysac during his lifetime.
He looks very capable and friendly...
Angel felt a little excited inside. She tried to speak and communicated with Ancient Hermes:
"Are you willing to sign a contract and become my messenger?"
The giant's copper bell-sized eyes looked at her, and after a moment he spoke, speaking in Feysac:
"You, okay."
The words are spoken slowly, but still clearly audible.
Is this considered consent?
Angel was a little confused. She looked at the experienced Azik, who had been sizing up this giant Spirit Body, and seemed to be observing his inner being with Spirit Vision, but did not answer for a moment.
If it doesn't work, just choose him first, at least he's better than the thumb bird just now... Angel looked at the giant again, and was about to speak, but the other party nodded slowly and said:
"I agree."
Great, he agreed... wait, is he answering my question just now, after a full minute?
Angel's smile froze on her face, and she finally discovered the biggest problem with this giant - Slowing.
His first "Hello" was a greeting that occurred one minute after being summoned, and his second "Agree" was also one minute after Angel asked. This is his reaction speed...
When it was more critical and I needed to convey information as quickly as possible, I couldn't even communicate with him verbally. It wasn't that he couldn't understand, but our conversation was delayed by more than a minute!
A smile appeared on her face and she said:
"Thank you for your cooperation. I think you deserve a better contractor."
Before the one-minute delay passed, Angel quickly lifted the summons and sent the giant back to Spirit World.
Wiping the non-existent sweat on her forehead, she looked at the two people in the corner tiredly, wondering if Klein should come up and make a fool of herself and let her rest for a while.
As if he guessed what she was thinking, Klein raised his right hand slightly, straightened his index finger, and made a "1" gesture, indicating to her to try again.
Well, just try, if it doesn't work, it's your turn...
Angel thought with some self-abasement, lit the candle again, and recited the ritual mantra again.
"Spirit wandering in the void, friendly creatures that can be driven, unique beings who are capable and willing to serve as messengers."
She was going to use this broadest description to try Last Time, as long as there was someone who could deliver messages, even if it was just an enlarged version of the first thumb bird.
Huhu——
A strong wind blew through the room, causing the candlelight to sway and turn into a strange black color.
This time the movement was louder than the previous two times. Angel was a little excited. She pursed her lips and looked in the direction of the candlelight, waiting for the last Spirit World Creature to arrive.
But, nothing appeared.
Huh?
She ended the Spirit Vision state, opened it again, looked forward again, then looked around, and then at the corner.
Klein looked around with the same confusion, while Azik looked at her, or to be precise, at her feet.
Angel had an epiphany and looked down. The air beneath her feet fluctuated like water ripples. A black cat about half a meter long and much larger than an ordinary cat appeared on the carpet. Its blue eyes stared at her blankly.
