Varina was led to the second floor by the waiter and stopped in front of a small wooden cubicle.
He opened the door curtain and entered, using the dim lighting provided by the candles on the wall, and saw a woman sitting on the only chair inside.
It was a sweet lady with fluffy slightly curly hair and wearing a light yellow dress.
She stood up with a smile and asked softly: "Do you have 'Succubus Eyes' for sale?"
The other party obviously looked very attractive, but Varina felt as if a chill had hit him, and goosebumps almost appeared on his body.
He forced himself to calm down and replied: "To be honest, I didn't."
"Are you entertaining me?"
The lady's pretty face soon became frosty, "Do you know that false reporting of transactions will be punished by Mr. A?"
Varina shook his head and said: "I didn't make a false report. What I told the waiter was that I wanted to negotiate a deal with the person who is looking for the 'Eyes of the Enchanting Banshee'."
"So you want to negotiate other deals?" The sweet lady began to look at Varina up and down with strange eyes.
Varina nodded curtly, "Yes, I want the formula for the 'Assassin' potion."
"Oh it's you."
The lady nodded, and a small doubt in her mind was answered.
She was about to speak when she suddenly thought of something and blurted out: "No, how did you recognize my sequence?"
"You already know about 'Happiness', but you still need the formula for the 'Assassin' potion?"
After realizing this, the witch's eyes were full of malice. If this wasn't Mr. A's party, I'm afraid she would have already taken action.
"Don't do it, I can explain!"
Varina pressed her hands repeatedly to signal her not to be impulsive, and said quickly:
"I am half an 'assassin'. My parents died very early."
"I can recognize your sequence because I have a vague impression of the material 'Eyes of the Enchanted Banshee', so I chose to take a gamble."
"Anyway, if I don't gamble, I won't live long."
When the witch heard this explanation, she showed some interest and said, "Prove it to me."
Varina nodded, then skillfully moved a few steps sideways and crouched into the shadows where the candlelight could not illuminate.
"It turns out to be the original lost child."
The frost on the witch's face disintegrated and she became sweet and gentle again, "Poor child, the fact that you can find me proves that you are excellent."
Varina stood up from the shadows and asked excitedly: "So you are willing to give me the potion formula?"
"No, not yet."
The witch sat down again and said:
"If anyone can become an 'assassin', then why didn't I respond to your transaction request just now?"
"Obviously, you think too simply."
She moved her body to a more comfortable sitting position and continued:
"Now, not only are you not qualified, but I am not qualified either."
"If you want to become an 'assassin', you have to prove your determination by completing a task."
"As for me, well, once I find the 'Eye of the Charming Banshee', I will be qualified to develop subordinates."
Varina was dumbfounded. Is it so strict?
It can only be said that it is indeed a secret sect. No wonder it can firmly control the "Assassin" path in its own hands. It seems that the possibility of obtaining the "Assassin" potion formula from other channels is very low.
"Then what should I do to become an 'assassin' as soon as possible?" Varina asked.
"Let's start by introducing ourselves."
The witch looked at Varina with a smile, and said proactively: "Let's get to know each other. I am Qili, a member of the Witch Cult, Sequence 7."
"Varina Attano, there is nothing else to say."
Qilihun nodded carelessly, "Let me make it clear first, I am quite satisfied with you, and I will be promoted to Sequence 6 soon, so I will not recommend you to others."
"You will be the first subordinate I develop. Is there any problem?"
"No."
Could Varina have any other answer? The answer is also no.
"very good."
"Don't worry, I won't waste your time. While I'm looking for materials, you can complete your mission first and prove that you have the determination and worth to become an 'assassin'."
Qili said, stood up again, walked to Varina, spread her left palm, "Hand over a strand of hair and a drop of blood, and you will gain my trust."
There is nothing to hesitate about.
He has searched all the channels he can find and has no other choice.
There is no room for hesitation.
This witch has already said this, can he still go back and refuse?
Moreover, referring to Triss's early experience in the original work, after joining the Witch Cult, her freedom of movement will not be too restricted, and she will not even be told the truth before she is promoted to Sequence 7 "Witch".
There is a lot of room for maneuver in the middle, so that he will not be too passive.
Varina carefully pulled out the dagger tied to his left arm, cut off a section of black hair on the forehead and placed it on Qili's palm, then gently pricked the fingertip and squeezed out a drop of blood.
The blood condensed on the fingertips, like a small blood-red pearl.
The witch Qili stretched out her hand and took the drop of blood from his fingertips as if she were really picking out a pearl. During the process, Warina only felt a slight coldness at his fingertips.
Qili got Warina's handle and her smile became more cordial.
She told Variner an address and a secret code to go there to pick up the mission, and then left the compartment.
Before leaving, she did not leave any other contact information, only saying that she would contact Varina soon.
Varina waited in the cubicle for a while, and after thinking about contingency measures, he put on the black hooded robe provided in the cubicle and returned to the hall.
He found Xio and Forsi and told them that he had reached a formula deal with others and asked them to pretend they didn't know him at the end of the party.
"But we still have questions to ask you." Xio said a little eagerly.
After Xio returned home yesterday, he told Forsi about the "Full Moon Rumblings" news. After the two discussed it, they both felt that the Abraham family was the key clue and decided to ask Varina after today's party.
"Just ask here," Varina said in a low tone, "Because of that deal, it is best not for us to meet in private for a while. This may bring unnecessary danger to you."
"This party is a good contact point. We agreed on passwords as requirements and communicated in the room where we applied for individual transactions."
"Okay," Forsi reacted faster, "I'll go to the small room right away and write down the news about the sale of the 'Master of Magic' potion formula."
The entire conversation was very short, and it looked like Varina took the initiative to approach them and chat with them for a few words.
In order not to leave any loopholes, Varina actually went to talk to a few more people after leaving them, pretending to sell his "Roselle Notes".
After a while, Mr. A spoke again, interrupting the slightly noisy conversation in the hall:
"The rest period is over and the second half of trading begins."
After Varina saw Forsi's transaction requirements on the blackboard, he approached the waiter again.
Soon, the three of them were reunited in another wooden cubicle on the second floor.
Xio watched Varina take off his robe after entering the door, and quickly asked: "What happened? Why did you suddenly become so cautious?"
