In the gray-white field of vision, Valeela searched carefully.
She spent a lot of effort, and it wasn't until she had some self-doubt that she found what seemed to be her target——
On the glazed floor tiles, there is a small circular area with a slightly darker gray scale, like the shadow of an object under the light.
But it must not be a shadow.
Because the only light source in the current bathroom is the candle that is part of the ritual, and the flame of the candle is unstable and cannot form a stable and round shadow.
Besides, before turning on the "grey vision", Valeera didn't see any round shadows on the ground.
Valeela hesitated for a moment, but still did not dare to establish a "spiritual connection" directly, so she had to ask in ancient Hermes:
"Will you be my messenger?"
After asking, she paid careful attention to the "grey spot" on the ground to see if it would respond.
For a moment, Valeela received no response.
It wasn't until she couldn't help but ask again that the "grey spots" on the ground changed, from a circle to a square, and of course, quickly returned to a circle again.
Can communicate!
Valeela perked up.
Although it is not clear yet whether it agrees or rejects this transformation, being able to communicate is a good sign. At most, if we chat a few more words, we can always understand each other.
Of course, Valeera had a better idea.
She asked again in ancient Hermetic:
"I want to establish a temporary spiritual connection with you. Can you control yourself and not hurt me?"
"If you can, please give the same response as before. If you can't, don't use it."
Soon, "Gray Spot" deformed again and gave a capable response.
After receiving an affirmative answer, Valeela first raised her hand in front of her eyes, then selected the target and established a "connection".
She was there to prevent accidents.
If this spirit world creature understands "damage" differently, she can directly exit the "gray vision" state and disconnect the "connection" as quickly as possible to avoid suffering damage.
Fortunately, her worries were unnecessary.
After the "spiritual connection" was connected, the thoughts transmitted by "Gray Spot" were full of joy and excitement. Apart from a little bit of "noise", there was no actual harm.
This spirit creature seems to be delighted that Valeera can discover it and communicate with it. It can be said that its attitude cannot be more friendly, and it has been urging Valeera to make it a messenger.
Valeela did not relax her request because of its emotions, but asked another question. After confirming that it was capable of the job of a messenger, she drafted a messenger contract using ancient Hermes text that could leverage the power of nature.
At the end of the contract, Valeera wrote a description of the underworld as a witness.
"The destination of all death, the hell hidden deep in the spiritual world, the witness of the mortality of all things, belongs exclusively to the kingdom of Death."
After finishing, Valeela pressed Azik's messenger copper whistle onto the parchment and wrote her current name on the signature:
"Valila Veitch."
The signature is part of the ritual, and the most important thing is the aura of the contractor, so the specific name is not very important, it will only affect the summoning spell of the messenger.
Valeela originally wanted to use her real name, but gave up after thinking about it.
Her main relationships were all established under the identity of Valeela, and it was not suitable to use her real name until she truly completed her transition.
After signing, the parchment with the contract floated on its own, taking the pen and Azik's messenger copper whistle with it.
At this time, Valeera had already exited the "grey vision" and completely lost her perception of the spiritual creature who was about to become her messenger.
Suddenly, a pale green flame ignited, quickly burning the contract parchment to ashes.
When... Valeela subconsciously reached out to catch the falling copper whistle, but she had no idea how her messenger completed the signature.
She didn't even know the name of her messenger.
In the exchange just now in "Psychic Connection", her main concern was whether the other party could fulfill the role of messenger. As for the name, she could see it when signing.
Who would have thought of this?
Just when Valeela was a little confused, the phenomenon of light refraction suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and it became more and more obvious... Finally, she saw a crystal octahedron suspended in the candlelight. in front of myself.
Perfect geometric shape, very beautiful.
Valeera reached out and tried to touch, but it went completely through.
She had never expected that an existence that seemed so substantial would actually be illusory.
At this time, the regular octahedron began to undergo various deformations.
From octahedron to cube to sphere to all kinds of weird and complex geometric shapes, they look very beautiful.
"Re-mi-er."
"projection."
Finally, Valeera spelled out its name from the light and shadow refracted by the messenger, and also found its identity based on the hints - the "grey spot" on the ground.
This guy goes against common sense!
The "grey spot" that looks like a shadow is its body, while the changeable geometric shape is its projection.
It seems that because the messenger contract has strengthened the connection, Valeera can now see its true form without using "grey vision".
"goodbye."
After saying goodbye in ancient Hermes, Valeela canceled the summons of her own will.
With the end of the summoning ceremony, the body of the messenger Lemuel, together with the geometric projection, quickly became illusory, retreated into the pale candlelight, and returned to the spiritual world.
What a special spirit world creature... After receiving a special spirit world messenger, Valeela happily packed up the remains of the ritual and returned to bed to rest.
To her surprise, Mr. Azik quickly wrote her a reply.
"Unexpectedly, not only Klein, you also helped me find some traces. It seems that my original decision was really correct."
"The Eggers family you described gave me a familiar feeling, but it didn't remind me of anything more. Maybe I do have some relationship with the Eggers family."
"In addition, the 'shepherd' ability you described feels very familiar to me. I seem to have seen it and encountered it somewhere, but I can't remember it. I can only vaguely feel that this should be an experience I had in my previous life. "
"I feel really bad and distressed about not being able to finish the recollection."
"But in terms of safety, I don't think you need to worry too much. After Klein helped me recall some things, my strength also recovered a little. Now I am no longer so afraid of danger and death, otherwise I wouldn't Return to Backlund and take the initiative to follow the footsteps of the past."
"In the next few days, I will visit a lot of my former teachers and classmates and attend parties. I may not be able to reply to you in time, so I apologize in advance."
