Monday, early morning.
There were still two hours before Valeera got up, and her personal maid Liya had already woken up on time.
After finishing dressing up, she left her small bedroom and first came to the door of the master bedroom where Valeera was.
Sure enough, that Lidya was slacking off again.
This is not once or twice, but - every time!
Although Liya knew that in the nearly two months she had served Valeera, she had never called for help late at night, but——
But that's not the point at all.
The lady's tolerance is the kindness of the lady. As a maid, she should fulfill her duties.
But this Lydia, as a night maid, has never fulfilled her duties seriously, not even a day!
Liya felt that she should help the kind lady and discipline this unqualified maid a little.
She walked a short distance along the wide corridor and came to the door of Lydia's small bedroom. She opened the door with the key without knocking and broke in.
As Valeela's personal maid, she holds almost all the keys to the entire house.
Lydia, who was already a "singer", was naturally more inspired than ordinary people. She almost woke up when Liya broke into the room, frowned and asked, "What's the matter with you?"
"You still have the nerve to ask?"
Seeing this "night maid" sleeping with her hair disheveled, Liya felt even more angry.
Is this also called "Night Maid"? !
In this case, if the lady calls for help, how much time will it take for her to appear in front of the lady without losing etiquette?
Because Valeela was resting next door, Liya took a deep breath and lowered her voice and said:
"You're the night maid!"
"I've reminded you before, you have to shoulder your responsibilities!"
"I admit that you sing very nicely, but you are not a singer, you are a maid! A night maid! You must always be ready to help the lady, not sleep better than the lady!"
"You can't squander the lady's love for you."
Lydia, who had switched to a sitting position on the single bed, stretched out her hand to rub her eyes and explained to Liya:
"I also told you that the lady ordered me to rest."
"I know!"
Liya was still a little angry, "The lady told me this before."
"I know Miss has always been considerate of us."
"In the past, it was really difficult for me to take care of all the time at night when I was alone, but now there are two of us... If you are not energetic enough at night, you can sing less."
Liya put her hands on her hips, took a breath, then looked at Lydia up and down with a strange look, and said again:
"Don't you have any thoughts about Mr. Geary?"
"I suggest you take a look in the mirror. Compared with your singing voice, your appearance is nothing."
"I'm going to start work. Think about it."
After saying what she wanted to say, Liya dropped the last sentence, turned around and left the small bedroom.
Behind her, Lydia opened her mouth silently, but finally made no sound.
…
In the majestic palace, Klein sat at the top of the ancient long table, showing in front of him the whale bone containing the "clown" characteristics and the parchment with the formula written on it.
"It's quite realistic..."
He picked up the whale bone and played with it for a moment, feeling that the shape and feel were the same as the outside world.
This was the first time he had tried to directly embody items other than pens and paper on top of the gray mist. He didn't expect the effect to be so good.
"The origin of this whale bone in my hand."
He silently recited the divination mantra seven times, leaned back in his chair, and entered the dreamland.
In the gray imaginary world, Klein saw Valeela processing the properties of "Joker" in the chemical laboratory.
In the picture, Valeera's hands are surrounded by a layer of illusory black smoke, dismantling a palm-sized whale bone amulet into large and small pieces along the vague cracks.
Under the cover of black smoke, the small fragments quickly disintegrated and turned into dots of light shining with gold, yellow, and red light, gathering into the remaining large whale bone. .
When Klein saw this, his dream quickly disappeared and he woke up.
Is Valeera an "artisan"...or does she have a magical item corresponding to the "artisan"...or is the amulet not a regular magical item?
Klein tapped his fingers on the ancient bronze tabletop and made a guess based on his occult knowledge.
He became somewhat curious about the amulet made of whale bone.
After thinking for a while, he tried to reconstruct the complete amulet based on his feelings in the dream, starting from the whale bone that appeared.
However this is difficult.
Klein tried very hard to express it, but in the end he only got the phantom of the whalebone amulet, which had no real touch at all.
"The origin of this amulet."
Although he felt that there should be no information from divination in such a state, Klein still gave it a try.
Soon, he entered the gray dreamland again.
However, in the dream, he only saw a quiet void with slight cracks, and other than that, there was nothing else to gain.
What does this mean...that the amulet comes from that void? After waking up, Klein struggled to interpret it and was completely unsure whether his interpretation was correct.
The symbols on the amulet are also new symbols that have never been seen before... Hey, in addition to "The Fool", does Valeela also believe in other evil gods... Well, the "dark side of the universe"? !
Thinking of this, Klein restored the phantom of the amulet in his hand to a whale bone, and quickly wrote another line of divination:
"Using whale bones as the main material, promotion will leave hidden dangers that are harmful to me."
This time, he used pendulum divination.
After reciting it seven times, Klein looked down at the citrine pendant and saw that it was rotating counterclockwise, with a large amplitude.
This means denial, and to a high degree.
There were basically no hidden dangers... Klein breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the divination results. All his previous experiences made him quite confident in his divination results above the gray fog.
After he felt relaxed, he picked up the parchment with the formula on it and performed the last divination:
"The source of the recipe content on this parchment."
In the gray dream, Klein saw Valeera picking up a men's silver pocket watch on the table, turning the button to fine-tune the time, and then closed her eyes.
After 30 seconds, when the stopped pointer of the pocket watch resumed beating, Valeela opened her eyes, picked up the pen and wrote quickly on the parchment, and soon wrote "Soothsayer" one after another. ”, “Joker” and “Magician” potion recipes.
She must have used the power of magical items to recall three potion formulas directly from her memory... Unfortunately, this way I can't divine the original source.
Klein let the objects that appeared in his hands dissipate, and suddenly said with emotion:
"Valeera has so many magical items..."
