Part 6 The Light-Exporter Chapter 41 – Getting a Grip on the Mentalities
Friendly? When she heard Gelman Sparrow’s question, Forsythe the Magician almost doubted her own ears.
Her mind instantly conjured up the cobbled-together head of Mr. X, riddled with cracks, crevices, and bloodstains.
As Forsyth was trying to come up with a good line, Audrey “Justice” glanced at her and smiled at Germaine “The World” Sparrow:
”It’s not what you do that makes the Abrahams feel your kindness, it’s what Ms. Magician wrote in her letter.”
Yes, unless I appear directly in front of Miss Magician and her teacher, his knowledge of me will be limited to the rumors and the things Miss Magician told him… …As long as the story she tells is good enough, even if it doesn’t match up with the actual situation, it doesn’t matter …… Klein immediately realized that he had been a bit too sharp when he was thinking about the corresponding issue.
”Huh?” “Magician” Voorhees had some understanding of Ms. “Justice’s” words, but did not think thoroughly enough.
”Justice” Audrey said to Voorhees after looking at “The Hidden One”, “The Star” and the others:
”You need to convey Mr. ‘World’s’ goodwill to your teacher, and to do so, you can weave some stories rather than tell them as they are.”
”And what do I need to say?” “Magician” Voorhees volunteered to ask for advice.
It wasn’t that she wasn’t good at making up stories, on the contrary, it was exactly what she was best at, but the problem was that writing a novel to be liked wasn’t the same as writing a story to be believed, and the latter would undoubtedly be easier if she could get the advice of a “senior” psychologist.
”Justice,” Audrey replied, not speaking too fast or too slow at the moment, having thought out the details of her epistle before she opened her mouth:
”Obviously, your teacher must have noticed your rapid promotion and is somewhat suspicious and wary of your involvement in the circle of extraordinary people because of Mr. X’s death and various sensitive issues.”
”Hmm.” Forsyth nodded her head imperceptibly, agreeing with Miss Audrey’s judgment.
If her teacher, Dorian Gray Abrahams, had been careless and unusually slow to respond to signs, he would never have survived and would have been captured by the Aurora Society or died at the hands of other forces interested in the Abrahams family.
”Justice,” Audrey continued:
”Under these circumstances, he still maintains contact with you, teaches you knowledge, gives you formulas, and provides you with materials, showing that on one hand, he recognizes your personality and character, and on the other hand, he also has certain expectations for you to become a Demigod of Sequence 4, and for you to receive important information from the mysterious and dangerous circle of extraordinary people.
”It’s this mentality that we’re going to, well, capitalize on.”
Audrey wanted to use the more neutral term “grasp” instead of “utilize”, but after a brief pause, she chose to face herself and the nature of the matter head on.
Seeing that “Magician” Forsyth had assumed a posture of listening attentively, “Judgement”, “Star” and “Hermit” were also quite interested in what they were going to say. Quite expectant of their next words as well, “Justice” Audrey pursed her lips and said:
”You can write to him when you get back and tell him that you have become a ‘traveler,’ so that he will be both delighted at your growth and amazed at this exaggerated rate of advancement, and then, to answer that question he posed earlier, say that the gentleman who begged for the ‘Worms of the Star ‘ The gentleman who had mentioned one thing, and that was that the ancient curse in the bloodline of the Abraham family seemed to come from a hidden being called Mr. ‘Gate’.
”This is something your teacher has not told you and is absolutely concerned about.
”No doubt he would have felt fear and wanted to hide from the gentleman who seemed to know of your connection to the Abrahams family, but he would inevitably have also been eager to learn more, to figure out what secrets the curse that had tormented generations of the Abrahams family hid, and whether there was any solution to it.
”At the same time, an exchange of letters rather than a direct encounter will give him a certain sense of security, and he may shift his residence, change his identity, and adopt a more roundabout way of sending and receiving letters, but odds are that he won’t break off contact.
”Keep up that contact, and step by step reveal more valuable content, awaken your teacher’s desire, and use it to portray Mr. ‘World’ in such a way that your teacher can experience some kind of goodwill.”
At this point, Audrey paused and once again looked over at Germaine “The World” Sparrow.
She could probably tell that Mr. “The World” was asking the Abrahams to express his goodwill to the other side, but what exactly he was asking for, she was not a master of prophecy and had not read Germaine Sparrow’s mind, so naturally she could not guess and could not go any further.
Klein nodded, and said with a hoarse smile to Miss “Magician”:
”Once this indirect connection is established, I may make a trade request to your teacher, exchanging the promise of lifting the curse for something of value.”
Through the witch Tris, he had actually grasped the solution to the Abraham family’s curse, but he didn’t intend to use it to exchange for the “Traveling Mage” magic potion formula and the “0” level seal.
On the one hand, it was because the value was not equal, the difference was too great, and Klein would feel guilty, on the other hand, he did not want to release the dangerous existence of Mr. Gate back to the real world like this, that would be irresponsible to himself and to all the innocent people.
What he considered was to find another way to make the curse of the Abrahams family disappear to some extent, that is to say, it may still exist, but it will not affect the normal life of the Abrahams and within a certain range of promotion.
This way ah …… the middle and high level extraordinary person in the field of mind is really good, can make people unconsciously follow her arrangement to do the corresponding things …… compared to when they first met, “Justice “Compared to when we first met, Miss “Justice” is as formidable and admirable as if she had completed her transformation …… The “magician” Forsyth glanced at Hugh, and seemed to read the same sentiment in the other party’s eyes.
She thought for a moment, and summoned up her courage to say to Germaine “The World” Sparrow:
”What if my teacher refuses your request to trade?”
Think I’m going to kill someone to get rid of them? Klein mentally spat in Chinese and let out a “heh”:
”Don’t worry, I won’t disadvantage him and won’t use coercion.”
Phew …… Mr. “World” although scary a little, but still very promise keeping …… “Magician” Foerth slowly nodded and said. Si slowly nodded and said:
”I’ll write a letter to my teacher later as Ms. ‘Justice’ suggested.”
Klein nodded gently and looked around the room and said:
”You may discuss the hunting operation.”
”The Hidden One” Gadelia took over the lead and spoke:
”The biggest problem of this operation is how to find that ‘Holy One of Secrets’ Buttis?”
Foerth instantly remembered his previous chance encounter with Butis and raised his hand to say:
”If I could borrow that powerful seal from my teacher, then I could carry it and wander around Berkland often, drawing Butis into the vicinity through the convergence between extraordinary traits.
”Uh, that might also attract other ‘apprentice’ pathway demigods, or, for that matter, Mithraic chief Charatu, or, for that matter, ‘blasphemer’ Amon …… ”
The more Voorhees spoke, the lower his voice became, thinking that this approach was just too dangerous.
If Charatu and Amon really appeared, what would happen to the other members involved in the operation, she didn’t know, but there was no doubt she couldn’t run away as bait.
”The Hidden One,” Gadelia said thoughtfully as she nodded:
”If it’s just a ‘1’ level seal for the ‘Apprentice’ pathway, the Law of Extraordinary Characteristic Aggregation shouldn’t be as strong of an attraction for similar pathways, and the range will be limited to the ‘Apprentice ‘ pathway demigods, and as far as I know, there aren’t many of those, or even fewer, and they overwhelmingly exist in the form of traits, seals.”
Suddenly I don’t want to be Sequence 4 …… “Magician” Voorhees’s eyelids fluttered as he listened.
Gadelia then turned her attention to Germaine “The World” Sparrow:
”Leaving aside the question of whether or not there is an ‘Apprentice’ pathway to a ‘1’ level seal, it would be difficult for the ‘Sage of Secrets’ and the Miss ‘Magician’ meet by chance, provided that he is also in Berkland and is not so cautious as to go out frequently.”
Hearing this, “Star” Leonard said from the point of view of a professional official extraordinary:
”It’s not really difficult, as a demigod of the ‘Apprentice’ path, Buttis is definitely the one in the Aurora Society’s hierarchy who is responsible for dealing with accidents and supporting different places, and he has enough maneuverability, heh, it’s a term that appeared after the invention of the steam train and the airship.
”As long as you guys can create some incidents against the Aurora Society in Beckland, there’s a high probability that he’ll come.”
As he spoke, Leonard glanced at Klein.
As far as he knew, in the melee outside of Bayram caused by Germaine Sparrow, the “Holy One of Secrets” had appeared and picked up a glove.
”This is a way ……” “Justice” Audrey and others nodded their heads.
Just then, “World” Germaine Sparrow suddenly spoke:
”Let me remind you, the Aurora Society is an organization that worships the True God, once you take action against them and the implied purpose is to hunt their executives, it is possible that the ‘True Creator’ will foresee it and give some warning.”
More like that? Audrey’s eyes widened slightly as she observed “Hidden One” Gadelia, “Star” Leonard and the others, realizing that they shared the same dismay.
This was something they hadn’t considered at all before.
It wasn’t that they weren’t smart enough, but they had never been involved in such matters involving high-level existences before, or rather, even if they had, they didn’t know anything about it.
”Then what should be done?” “Magician” Voorhees couldn’t help but ask.
Klein replied in an inspired tone:
”Use a softer method that doesn’t directly target the Aurora Society to fish out the ‘Holy One of Secrets’ Buttis.”
