At night, Varina sat quietly at the table without lighting a lamp.
If everything goes as usual, he should be studying the borrowed books by himself under the illumination of the whale oil lamp at this time. This was a learning opportunity he got through his cousin who was studying grammar at Backlund University, and he cherished it very much.
But there is no if in reality.
During the day, after being reminded by his colleague John, he discovered something special about himself: his body was more coordinated than before, he could see in the dark, and it was difficult to be discovered by others.
This is undoubtedly a transcendent quality.
Unexpectedly, before he could verify it, extraordinary power came to the door. Now the dream memory seemed more real and believable.
But why do you have extraordinary qualities in yourself?
Varina thought for a long time and found a possible explanation - his parents.
Both of his parents died when he was very young. If they had been extraordinary beings, he might indeed have inherited some of his extraordinary qualities.
And in this way, the dream memory he awakened can be seen as the guidance left by his parents to help him become a transcendent?
Then, Varina's reasoning went one step further - which "path to God" does his own characteristics belong to?
"Body Coordination", "Dark Vision", "Shadow Hiding"
Combined with these qualities, he came to a conclusion that he found difficult to accept - the assassin's path.
This is not a good approach.
When Varina came to this conclusion, she had numerous curiosity and speculations about the past of her deceased parents. And after that, he felt hurt for himself.
Anyone who has read the original work knows that the Assassin's Path is also called the Witch's Path, and the Sequence 7 potion is called "Witch". Drinking it will make a man change his gender into a woman.
And he doesn't want to become a woman!
This is easy to handle, as long as he gives up promotion to Sequence 7 after becoming a transcendent. This will not only solve the problem of short lifespan caused by extraordinary traits, but also will not change the gender.
But there are problems with this choice.
Extraordinary power does exist, so the theory of doomsday more than ten years later can basically be believed to be true. Although Varina could not remember the reason for the end, he also knew that it was a disaster that even the true gods could not resist.
He asked himself, could he really stay in the weak Sequence 8 and let others control his destiny?
"No, no!"
Wariner easily heard his own voice, two.
"Then it seems that there is only one choice - continue to be promoted in the 'Witch' path, and when you reach Sequence 4, switch to the 'Hunter' path and become a man again."
Varina comforted herself in her heart:
"Just think of it as playing a dress-up game. Anyway, in another memory, he has played many games with female protagonists."
"The assassin's path is better than those dead ends where the ascending passage is completely blocked..."
After going through a long mental journey, Varina's thinking has achieved staged results.
1. Learn Ancient Fusac and Hermes to lay the foundation for mastering Giant and Ancient Hermes in the future - the latter two can be said to be mystical languages that professional extraordinary people must master.
Second, contact the circle of extraordinary people and pursue the formula and materials for the assassin's potion - this requires a large amount of gold pounds, and judging from his current conditions, I am afraid he will have to use some illegal means.
After setting the goal, Varina felt much more relaxed. He turned his head and looked out the window. The Tasok River was still sparkling under the moonlight. The night covered its turbidity, leaving only the beautiful light and shadow.
It's past midnight and it's time to go to bed.
…
In the early morning, Warina went out earlier than yesterday and walked in the opposite direction to yesterday.
Today is his day off. He is going to Backlund University to meet his cousin.
This was an agreement that lasted for more than a year. It was precisely because of this agreement that he had a channel to borrow books and study on his own.
Varina packed the books that needed to be returned and his only formal clothes in a cloth bag, and then walked all the way, and finally left the East District after more than an hour.
Next, he will go to the subway station at the intersection of the East District and Backlund Bridge areas, sit in the West District, and then transfer to a public carriage.
For Varina, the time and money spent on such a trip that spanned most of the city was a considerable amount.
Near noon, he finally arrived at his destination and once again saw the castle-like building and tall and imposing gate of Backlund University.
Wearing a black vest, a formal suit of the same color, clean dark trousers, and a half-top hat, Varina suddenly became handsome after putting on the formal suit.
Dressed like this, he looks like a student here.
After having what he considered a luxurious lunch at a nearby restaurant, he came to the student dormitory area and knocked on his cousin's door.
The door was opened slightly, and a rather handsome face poked out, smiling after seeing Varina.
"Cousin, you're here, come in and sit down."
He opened the door, revealing a figure that was taller than Varina. He stretched out his hand to lead Varina to sit down in the reception area, then turned around and started to arrange things.
"Reyes, don't bother, I'm not a guest."
Reyes laughed and kept his hands on himself. Soon, he placed a cup of coffee in front of Varina.
"A cup of coffee to relieve the fatigue of the trip."
"I've also prepared the business textbooks you want. Three of them are mainly accounting related. I'll get them to you right away."
Varina stopped him apologetically:
"etc."
"This time I would like to borrow introductory textbooks on Ancient Fussac and Hermes. It would be best if you can also help me copy a page of Roselle's cipher notes."
"I know my request is a bit abrupt, but it is very important to me. I hope you can help me."
Reyes sat down next to him and asked in confusion: "Why are you suddenly interested in these unpopular languages? Are you not planning to become an accountant?"
He pondered for a while and then said: "Borrowing books is not a big problem, but when do you want it? As for Russell's notes, I can't guarantee this."
"I'll come again tomorrow, okay?"
"Tomorrow, so urgent?" Reyes frowned, "Did something happen?"
"Something happened, but I can handle it myself."
Varina said, taking out two more books from the bag, putting them on the table and pushing them over, "These are to be returned."
Reyes glanced at it casually, but did not see the note with the question written on it, and a new doubt arose:
"There is no problem this time. Do you want me to ask the instructor for you?"
"There was originally, but now it has been resolved."
"Okay," Reyes stood up, "I'll try to help."
"Cousin, have you had lunch? We can go together."
Varina shook his head and declined:
"No, I've already eaten."
"Then please leave it to me, I'll go back right away."
Reyes sighed, "Hey, you always do that."
"I'll give it to you."
