A "Gift" from Afar / The Blood Duke, Ever Followed by "Good Luck"

"Waaaaah, little Amiya, that old hag Kal'tsit is bullying me..."

After being put down, Closure, holding Amiya, began to badmouth Kal'tsit.

"By the way, you mentioned before that you got into a fight with Warfarin and it got posted online. Kal'tsit shouldn't have forgotten about you on purpose, right..."

Closure's voice was quite loud, causing people doing their morning exercise nearby to frequently turn their heads in her direction.

Worried that Closure 'Kal'tsit words would reach her ears and cause her further trouble, Suika changed the subject.

"Um... this... that..."

Closure heard Suika's words, she was like a chicken with its neck being choked, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

"I understand. Miss Closure was punished because of the time she misappropriated your reward, right?"

Amiya looked at Closure, and saw that Kroos shrank back after Amiya explained the reason.

Then, seeing that Suika wasn't angry, he straightened his chest with a sense of righteous indignation.

"What do you mean by misappropriation? Why are you saying such rude things... I'm just borrowing, okay? And I already told Miss Suika about it."

Even without a written IOU, do you think I would risk my reputation for such a small amount of money?

Amiya looked at Suika, Suika remembered what had happened before.

"Although there were some minor concealments, she did explain the reason to me at the end and promised to return it to me later."

Amiya looked at Suika seriously.

"You can't say that. After all, it was a reward for you risking your life to save more than twenty miners."

It is also unacceptable for her to exploit information asymmetry to deceive you into lending her this money.

Therefore, punishment is necessary.

However, since you forgave her, the punishment wasn't so severe.

Suika looked at the pitiful Closure beside her.

"Forgive her? Of course I forgave her a long time ago. Look, the hat she's wearing is a gift from me!"

Suika pointed to the hat that Closure on her shoulder strap.

Closure nodded when Amiya looked at her, and pulled the hat off and put it on her head.

"Alright, since Ms. Suika has forgiven you, we won't pursue the matter further. However, we hope this won't happen again!"

Amiya spoke softly and sweetly, completely devoid of the domineering aura she displayed when Closure just moments before.

"I guarantee it!"

Closure readily agreed.

"Alright, I'm going to do my morning exercise... you guys?" Amiya stood up, ready to continue her morning exercise, seeing that everything here was done.

Suika and Closure shook their heads together.

"Never mind, I hung up all night, now I'm going to go back and rest!"

"Okay, see you next time!" Amiya didn't insist, said goodbye to the two, and ran into the group of people doing morning exercises.

"Let's go. By the way, Closure, do you know how to get to the restaurant?"

"Of course, you're not going to go eat breakfast, are you!"

"Of course, aren't you hungry at this hour?"

"A little, but aren't we going back to sleep?"

"Eat and then go to sleep!"

"Won't you have trouble sleeping?"

"That's because you ate too much. Eat something before you go to sleep and you'll sleep soundly."

And think about it, if you go to sleep hungry, you'll not only dream about being hungry, but you'll also feel even worse if you wake up hungry..."

"That's true, but won't it make me gain weight?"

"Is your job involving less physical activity?"

"Okay, you've convinced me... Target: the cafeteria, charge!"

Having been persuaded by Suika Closure led her straight to the dining hall.

After a simple meal, Suika returned to her room, lay down on her bed, and fell into a deep sleep.

When she woke up, it was already late afternoon, almost sunset.

"Ah, I slept so well!" After getting up, she stretched and yawned as she walked out of the dormitory.

What was next...? Standing in the corridor, Suika blinked in confusion, then saw the library not far away.

"How about we go read a book first..."

Touching her stomach, Suika didn't feel hungry, so she decided not to wake up and go looking for food. She took the opportunity to look through Rhodes Island's operator handbook.

Chapter 187 A "Gift" from Afar

Just as she was engrossed in studying the loopholes in Rhodes Island's operator rules, she felt someone sit down next to her.

Turning my head, I saw it was Logos.

When he saw that I was staring at him, he tilted his head and shook the book in his hand.

Suika glanced at the <Lectures on Advanced Spell Transfiguration> in Leithanien language...

Very well, although she could barely recognize the Leithanien script mentioned above, what it was when put together was something her mind couldn't comprehend for the time being.

"You still need to learn this stuff?" Although she didn't understand the quality of the book, she felt that given Logos's abilities, this book probably wouldn't offer him much improvement.

Moreover, judging from the appearance of this book, it has been read many times.

"There's a saying in the Great Yan, 'Reviewing the old helps one understand the new.' This book was the first advanced magic book I ever studied. Even now, I occasionally take it out and flip through it, and I always find new ideas and details that I hadn't noticed before."

It's like the spell I cast on myself that automatically induces vomiting if I drink more than a certain amount...

But it doesn't seem to work that well now.

The logos shrugged.

"So why do you insist on limiting the scope to alcohol?" Suika looked around. It was almost lunchtime, and many people had gone to the cafeteria, so there was no one around and her voice wouldn't disturb others before she spoke.

"Hmm?" This time, the logos were changed, which puzzled me.

"How does alcohol make you 'drunk'?"

"Alcohol numbs the nerves! You mean changing the method of inducing vomiting after drinking a certain amount of alcohol to numbing the nerves to a certain degree?" logos replied.

"The principle isn't wrong, but it's not entirely correct."

Spells can have effects that can bring someone to a state of clarity or remove negative physical effects.

You can set up a defensive spell for yourself. The spell will automatically activate when you lose consciousness and then use it to bring you back to consciousness.

Of course, you also need to be careful that this spell can distinguish whether you are unconscious or asleep.

Otherwise, don't blame me if I don't warn you beforehand if I give you a blowjob right away while you're sleeping!

Of course, you could consider not wearing it on yourself, but rather using a small item, such as a button or a longevity charm.

Although Suika doesn't understand Terra's magic, she has a wildly imaginative mind from another world.

Logos fell into thought after hearing this.

"It's a great idea, but it definitely needs more research. I can't do it alone, so I'll get other people involved later."

If successful, Rhodes Island will experience a significant leap forward in the field of mental protection.

What's this?"

Just as he was thinking, Suika handed him a small sign, no bigger than the palm of his hand, and he immediately recognized that it was made of Originium.

"I just remembered something. It's only been three days since I met the Blood Demon Lord, hasn't it...?"

There are still four days left, maybe I can add a little something to it!

When the topic of items came up, Suika suddenly remembered the Blood Demon Lord. She realized only three days had passed; if she didn't add something to his story, wouldn't her trip to Rhodes Island have been a waste?

Even if it's not Great Fortune Sigil, just giving one to each person you know would bring enough "good fortune" for that Blood Demon Lord to have a hard time over the next four days.

"What do you mean?" Logos looked at Suika, not quite understanding her words.

"Elbow, I've thought of something interesting. Take me to see Amiya!" After handing the stone tablet to Logos, Suika stood up and pointed to the door.

Although Logos didn't know what Suika was trying to do, she could roughly tell from Suika's tone and previous words that she had placed a curse on the Blood Demon Lord, and that it would last for seven days.

When she found Amiya, Amiya was eating in the cafeteria. She was a little surprised to see Suika and Logos walking towards her together.

Why did you all come together?

"We bumped into each other at the library. It just so happened that he reminded me of something interesting... Wait a minute, the concentration of Originium inside Rhodes Island is too low; it'll take some time..."

As Suika spoke, she spread her hands, and under the watchful eyes of the people around her, a newly unveiled Originium tablet formed in her palm.

Then she handed this to Amiya.

"Here you go. After you finish eating, please give me a list of operators. I'll jump to some that I like and give them some gifts!"

"What is this?" Amiya carefully took it and held it in her hand.

As Infected, those sitting here are not as afraid of Originium artifacts as people from the outside world.

"Here's the thing... Don't underestimate this little thing; I've engraved a spell on it called 'Great Fortune Sigil Mantra,' which will improve the wearer's luck."

Of course, improving someone else's luck comes at a price; while improving someone else's luck, it will decrease the luck of the giver.

To put it simply, I'll become unlucky for a few days after giving someone a stone tablet, and the more I give, the more unlucky I'll be.

Don't worry, I'm willing to send you this because I have a way to avoid this risk..."

When Suika mentioned that her luck had decreased, Amiya instinctively wanted to return the stone tablet to Suika, but Suika stopped her.

She took the Hina Doll from her waist.

"This doll is different from those Shanghai Dolls. She is special. She can absorb all my bad luck into her body."

Then she also had another item, which was a ritual object used in a special spell.

The effect of this spell is to transfer the misfortune stored within its body to the person affected, so that person can bear these unfortunate things in its place for seven days.

Yes, I initiated this ritual three days ago when we fought that Blood Demon Lord...

So you get it now!

Suika chuckled.

"So that's why you gave me and Closure a piece of this stone tablet back then. So that's what it's for!" Scout, who was not far away, understood why Suika had insisted on giving him and Closure this seemingly useless stone tablet when they were in the car after hearing Suika's explanation.

Suika nodded to him in agreement.

Amiya was conflicted after hearing this. It sounded a bit immoral, and she didn't know whether she should agree to it.

"Don't worry, that Dukale is, after all, the ruler of the Royal Court. This misfortune will only make him suffer for a few days at most!"

Besides, he's a staunch supporter of Theresis, so why would you worry about his well-being?

Suika put her arm around Amiya's shoulder and began to teach her in a devilish whisper in her ear.

Chapter 188 The Blood Demon Lord Is Always "Good Luck"

Amiya finally nodded.

"Okay, after you finish eating, come with me to the Control Room. Then, I'll call someone for you to give this ' Luck Talisman to."

Suika reached out and patted Amiya's head with satisfaction, looking at her as if she were a promising student.

"That's right. You have to understand that being merciful to the enemy is being cruel to yourself."

The soldiers around Suika wholeheartedly agreed with what she said.

After finishing her meal, Suika followed Amiya to the Control Room.

Amiya opened the computer terminal in front of her, and soon some names appeared on the screen.

These names are both overt and covert.

"The lit-up names indicate that the operators are currently on standby at Rhodes Island, while those that are not lit up are not on this ship."
