Female Novel
Chapter 634
Stoen University... Professor Michele... Notebook from the Twenty Year War era... Audrey extracted the key terms in the wordsand glanced at Susie, who was running happily in front of the mare. She went straight to the point by asking, “Ma’am Smine,what kind of notebook is it?”
“I'm not sure. All | Know is that it belongs to the period of the Twenty Year War. It’s part of Associate Professor Michele’scollection. It has an important characteristic—the patterns on the cover faintly forms a dragon.” Smine didn’t hide it from Audreyas she told her all the information she knew.
Audrey, who silently listened to her descriptions, restrained her burgundy mare as she considered how she could complete themission.
Visit Associate Professor Michele and view his collections before raising a request to buy one of the items isn’t too difficult.
Although it's embarrassing to admit this, it’s quite unlikely he would reject me regardless of the way it’s said. Yes, Audrey, youshouldn't be overly reliant on these...
The biggest problem is being out-of-the-blue. | didn’t know Associate Professor Michele before this, making it very difficult toexplain why I'm suddenly visiting him. Besides, | don’t know what the notebook means to him. Announcing my desire to purchaseit might result in him being alert and wary.
... Jen’s elder brother is studying at Stoen University. At the last gathering, he depicted his penchant for describing anddiscussing matters. If | were to invite him and his sister to the next afternoon tea and steer the topic towards history, archeology,or collections, then he will likely mention Associate Professor Michele. Yes, at a university, there's definitely not many people whocan be called collectors.
With such a precursor, | can send someone to pay a visit to Associate Professor Michele and make the request to view hiscollection. At the first meeting, I'll try my best not to show my desire for it. I’ll observe the owner’s actions and guide him to revealhis true self. This will be helpful for me to use suitable matters for suitable requests at a suitable time.
After confirming her line of thought, Audrey nodded at Smine and smiled.“I'll work hard to complete the mission, but | can’t guarantee success.”
Just as she said that, she tightened the girth before shooting forward like an arrow, heading straight for a reddish-brown fox thatwas darting around in a hunting encirclement.
Above the tumultuous sea, the Blue Avenger was like a leaf tumbling amidst heavy squalls. From time to time, it would be thrownup before crashing back into the waves, but it maintained a stunning sense of balance without any signs of capsizing.
Inside the captain’s cabin, Alger Wilson was floating around the window as he looked at the waves outside which were as highas mountains. There were forceful winds blowing around him in silence.
Some time later, he landed his feet onto the carpet.
Wind-blessed is indeed a Sequence that can be easily “acted” based on its name. The only problem is that it occasionally makesme irascible, completely matching the characteristics of a gale... Alger sighed inwardly without any delight.
Over the past two months or so, he had failed to obtain the Ocean Songster formula through his own resource channels and theTarot Club's trades. After all, it was that of a Sequence 5, the Sequence closest to a demigod. The corresponding formula wasalready something where demand far outstripped supply. Even with boatloads of money and the willingness to pay a premium, itwas very difficult to buy one.
Normally speaking, joining the corresponding Church or organization was the most effective method of obtaining thecorresponding formula, but as a Church of Storms bishop, Alger was unable to rely on this method. Due to particular secrets, heneeded to hide his strength in order to win the freedom he needed to take action and be under light monitoring. Only after he hadsufficient confidence would he head for a place and complete the goal he had been waiting for all this time.
To his joy, he didn’t waste the past two months. At the very least, the speed at which he digested the Wind-blessed potion waspretty decent.
The Wind-blessed is simple. Ocean Songster is said to be quite difficult... Must I frequently sing? Alger couldn't help but turn hishead and look towards the deck.
Although he was separated from them by several rooms, he could still hear the drunken sailors singing with gusto, creating a dinthat could rival the storm's roars.
Alger unknowingly frowned.
Backlund, Cherwood Borough. Synthes Circus.
“Ma’am, didn’t you say that you’re performing magic? Why are you dressed like that?” a youth asked the woman dressed in apitch-black pointed hat and dress of the same color in puzzlement.
| don’t know why I’m wearing this as well. Perhaps it’s because of my first appearance here. My brain was freezing from theweather and my style was subsequently fixed... Fors rubbed her face which had red and yellow paint as she replied with a smile,“In ancient times, magic is often mistaken as witchcraft.”novelbin
But this has nothing to do with why I’m wearing this... She picked up the middle of three porcelain cups which were placed infront of her. She then placed a white ball beneath it.
Then, she quickly switched the positions of the cups before smiling at the youth who had questioned her.“Guess where the tiny ball is?”
“Isn't this one of the gambling methods invented by Emperor Roselle?” the youth said with piqued interest. “But you aren’t acroupier, but a trickmaster at a circus. Therefore, | believe that the ball has already been switched away. All the cups are empty!”
Fors smiled and said, “Congratulations, you got it wrong.”
She suddenly picked up the cup in the middle as a white blur flew out.It was a dove!
As for the tiny ball from before, it was where the dove had left!“Wow!”
“Godly!”
“Wonderful magic!”
“Brilliant!”
After a series of amazed exclamations, Fors clearly looked pleased with herself as she looked at the distant cathedral bell, putaway her props, and returned to the tent where the circus master resided.
“Are you really resigning? | can double your salary!” the circus master came over as he tried to persuade her otherwise.
Unfortunately, | had already summarized the Trickmaster principles by the middle of March and had already completely digestedthe potion last week. If it wasn’t because the contract ended today, | wouldn’t even be here today...
Although being a Trickmaster feels very nice, this doesn’t stop me from my goal of advancing to Astrologer. Teacher said that hewould be giving me the formula, ingredients, and a gift this week... What kind of gift will it be?
Sigh, the ravings from the full moon are getting more terrifying. If not for Mr. Fool, | definitely would've lost control and become amonster... Fors extended her right hand and covered her mouth, languidly yawning. Then, she said with a smile, “Well, I’mactually a best-selling author. My next book is related to circuses, so | came here to be hired.”
“A best-selling author?” The circus master’s eyes lit up as he said worriedly and expectantly, “Will you write bad things aboutus?”
“Are there any? | had a great time for the past two months.” Fors took off her pointed black hat.
The circus master revealed a sincere smile and said, “Wall, Ma’am Wall, can you mention our circus’s name in your book? I-I’llpay you advertisement fees. Of course, it won’t be much. As you know, I’m responsible for the livelihoods of many people.”
That can be done? This circus master is quite smart... For the first time, Fors realized that a novel could “advertise” just like innewspapers or magazines. Furthermore, the format was more obscure and natural.
Amidst waves, a liner with rows of cannons traveled along a safe sea route without daring to deviate far from it.
Any deviation from the sea route east of Oravi Island usually meant disappearing. Even pirates didn’t dare to stray too far fromthe safe zones.
This sea was filled with unexplored regions, filled with all sorts of sensational legends!
After two months of volunteer work and finding four chances to engage in true acting, Klein bade farewell to carrying patients,scrubbing toilet bowls, cleaning vomit, and other miscellaneous chores. He boarded a ship headed for the Gargas Archipelago.
At the Tarot Gathering in early March, he had hired The Hermit Cattleya in a private conversation. He would meet her at thecapital of Gargas Archipelago, the City of White, Nas. He would then board her ship and head for the dangerous ocean, whichwas close to an illusion, on the far east of the Sonia Sea. There, he would search for unaffiliated mermaids who lived there.
The Hermit Cattleya seemed to be very interested in meeting members of the Tarot Club in the real world. With just a fewseconds of thought, she agreed to The World’s request. However, due to the high level of danger, she had given a high askingprice.
3,000 pounds!
Klein’s first reaction was to give up and take Mr. Hanged Man’s ghost ship, but considering how there would be many sailorsfrom the Church of Storms following him, making his freedom limited, and the fact that the level of danger in the easternmostarea of the Sonia Sea was high, he finally accepted Ma’am Hermit’s condition. As for her, she would wait around the GargasArchipelago for a month at the beginning of April. Any delay would imply the end of the cooperation.
To not waste the thousand-pound deposit, Klein didn’t wait to complete his digestion before heading for Gargas Archipelago fromOravi Island.
Of course, with the summaries and chances at true acting from before, he was already very close to completely digesting theFaceless potion. Even if he didn’t use true acting, just acting in his capacity as Gehrman Sparrow was enough to complete thedigestion in two to three weeks.
Due to this reason, as well as The World's identity being tied with Gehrman Sparrow, Klein transformed back into the lunatic andpowerful adventurer once he left the hospital. However, he did disguise himself to a certain degree.
As he watched the perturbed sea surface, Klein finally saw a port city that had houses mainly made of white rock.The most eastern front of the Feysac Empire, the capital of the Gargas Archipelago, Nas!
I'm finally overseas... Klein looked at a fishing boat carrying whale meat cruising into the harbor. Its ruggedness wasn’tconcealed.
Meanwhile, he discovered several ships hanging pirate flags docked at the harbor without any signs of concealment.
Indeed, Oravi Island’s eastern front is a playground for pirates... Klein wore his hat and carried his luggage and left the cabinafter the liner came to a stable halt. He went down the gangway into the harbor.
After a few steps, he saw a crew of pirates seemingly entering conflict with a local gang. Both sides drew their weapons as theyclashed.
Klein calmly walked past, showing no signs of stopping them.
At that moment, he saw a local pull out a few cans from his pocket and opened the lid before throwing it into the middle of theroad.
What's the meaning of this? Klein nearly laughed out before recalling an infamous item at sea.Canned wolf-fish!
Canned wolf-fish was popular on the east coast of Feysac and the Gargas Archipelago!
Just as the thought surfaced, an indescribable stench seemed to inundate Klein’s olfactory senses.His facial muscles twitched as he tried hard to resist his body’s discomfort as he quickly left the region.
Asmall number of pirates who were struck by the stench vomited immediately, while the remaining ones frantically fled whiledragging their companions as though they had lost all their combat strength.
A minute later, in a secluded corner, the crazy adventurer, Gehrman Sparrow, crouched down and silently belched.
