Another night of acting.
Valeela knew very well that such pretending behavior would not be a big problem a few times. Even if the person involved told it, others would probably think they were bragging.
But as long as it happens too often, it will definitely attract the attention of the official Beyonders.
Of course, risks are risks, and you have to do what you have to do.
Valeera planned to stay active in several well-known related places in Backlund for a few days. When her "famousness" increased, she would start to move around and reduce the possibility of being caught by official extraordinary people.
The best case scenario is that after becoming "famous", she can continue to give her feedback simply by relying on ordinary people's talk and rumors.
This is Valeela's expectation, so that she can possibly avoid official Beyonders.
But expectations are expectations. Whether it is feasible or not depends on the facts.
Of course, Valeela’s idea didn’t come out of thin air, and it had some basis for it—
In the original work, when Klein was playing the role of "Magician", he asked "Magician" Forsi to write a series of horrors based on him, and it was indeed effective.
Therefore, Valeela maintained some expectations.
…
Thursday, July 19th.
During afternoon tea time, a literary and music salon was going on in the luxurious villa of Backlund, Viscount Greent.
There were many invited guests, most of whom were famous writers, critics and musicians, um, and Valila, a history lecturer at Backlund University.
Of course, in the eyes of Viscount Greent, there are only two real guests——
Forse Wall, and Audrey Hall.
His purpose in holding this salon was to provide Audrey with an occasion and opportunity to get in touch with extraordinary people.
Of course, he didn't know that Audrey had already taken a step ahead and became an "audience" yesterday.
Not long after the salon started, Viscount Greent found an opportunity to introduce Forsi and Audrey.
In the salon that followed, while dealing with the attentive writers, critics and musicians, Audrey tried her best to remain an "audience" and observe everyone.
However, she has just become an "audience", and her observations are more focused on external features, and her grasp of inner thoughts is not proficient and accurate enough.
After a while, the invited guests completed their first round of contact and conversation, and the atmosphere of the salon also quietly changed.
At this time, Viscount Greent gave hints to Audrey and Forsi respectively, and left the salon to arrange a secret meeting.
Afterwards, Forsi and Audrey left the scene one after another.
Before leaving, Audrey also sent a hint to Valeera.
When you go to meet a strange Extraordinary, having an Extraordinary friend present will obviously improve your safety a lot.
After leaving the salon, Valeera turned a corner not far away and met Audrey who was waiting there.
After a few simple conversations, Valeela "understood" the reason for Audrey's hint and agreed to accompany her to see Forsi.
Study room on the first floor.
Grelint, who waited a few more minutes, was somewhat surprised when he saw Audrey and Valeela appearing together.
However, this was not a big problem. He immediately accepted this little accident and stepped forward to introduce her without any abnormality on his face, "Let me introduce you again, Ms. Fors, a true extraordinary person."
"This is Miss Valeela, she..."
"No introduction is needed," Forsi interrupted Grelint with a smile, "We know each other."
Valeera smiled and continued the second half, "At a salon half a month ago."
"Of course, I didn't expect that in addition to being a well-known writer, Ms. Fors is also an extraordinary person who has mastered magical abilities."
"Can you show me your ability?" Audrey showed just the right amount of curiosity and doubt.
Forsi put down the book in his hand, smiled slightly, and replied:
"I'm happy to prove myself."
With that said, Forsi walked slowly to the door, stretched out her right palm, and pressed it on the handle... Suddenly, her figure suddenly appeared in the lake, as if it had turned into a picture reflected in the water.
The next moment, she disappeared into the room.
A few seconds later, the handle was turned, and the locked door was opened directly, and Forsi Wall walked in from the outside with a smile.
"This is really a magical ability." Grelint exclaimed in admiration.
Valeera spoke her true inner voice, "I also want such an ability."
Audrey took a breath and said:
"I have no doubts."
While speaking, she tried to analyze from the perspective of the "audience" and guessed Forsi's true purpose with some uncertainty——
Use her and Grelint's identities and resources to accomplish something.
Seeing that his performance was very effective, Forsi chuckled twice and said:
"Let's have an honest conversation. We don't have much time left."
…
After spending some time, Fors explained clearly the matter of Xio being detained in the North District Prison and made a request for help.
In exchange, she promised to do her best to help Audrey and others become extraordinary people. She also talked about a lot of common sense about the extraordinary world on the spot, and also included many ways of conventional information.
From a transaction point of view, this is regarded as an advance deposit, and it is also to facilitate Audrey and others to choose the channel they like.
Audrey naturally chose "Audience", and Grein also chose "Pharmacist".
As for Valeela, she also chose "Medicine" due to Grelint's surprise and the tacit look in Audrey's eyes.
Finally, Audrey made a promise that as long as Xio did not commit any illegal crime, she would find a way to rescue him.
During this period of time, Valeela listened more and spoke less. In the eyes of Forsi and Grelint, she was just Audrey's foil.
After the negotiation was completed, several people returned to the living room until the salon was over.
On the return trip, Audrey once again invited Valeela to accompany her.
This was a decision the two of them discussed at the end of the salon. Audrey originally wanted to hold the conversation at Viscount Greent's house, but Valeela refused.
The reason for her refusal was simple: she didn't want Grelint to know that she was already an Extraordinary.
Audrey herself feels the same way. Her hidden purpose in choosing the "audience" is precisely to conceal the fact that she has become an extraordinary person.
On the carriage.
Valila first affirmed Forsi's words and "analyzed" them from a professional perspective.
Then, she quietly started her correction plan and said:
"Audrey, I didn't expect you to find the 'Ghost Shark's Blood' in just one day, thank you."
"But I must explain to you that at the gathering where Extraordinaries trade, the value of 'Ghost Shark's Blood' is almost three times that of the 'Audience' formula, so it is only fair that I have to compensate you."
Audrey wasn't very concerned about the price difference, but she was curious about the "pricing" mentioned by Valeera.
She looked at Valeela with her bright eyes and asked:
"How many gold pounds is a formula like 'Spectator' usually worth?"
"Two hundred pounds," Valeela said, "at least 200 pounds."
Audrey was quite surprised, and even exited the "audience" state without knowing it, and asked:
"so cheap?!"
