Chapter 97: Byron’s Sacrifice
“…purify this evil existence.”
Pious and firm, full of courage, Flo wants to “purify this evil existence.” completely unaware that his thoughts were directly going into the very concerned evil existence.
Obliviously the speaker was determined while, the listener Shen Yi was embarrassed to speechless.
Sitting behind the bar, he responded without even thinking.
“No.”
Shen Yi simply returned a word without any explanation, and God did not need to explain his will.
Flo was slightly paused, but did not raise any question.
God is absolute!
Inviolable and unquestionable!
He had always believed in this, from childhood to adulthood, every day and night.Flo slowly placed his right arm diagonally across his chest, his tone firm, expressing his absolute respect for God.
“Yes.”
“Your will is my destiny.”
Slowly the image of the prayer scene started to faded away and returned to normal.
Shen Yi shook his head, at the same time he fell into dilemma of ‘What would happen if this prayer goes on in the middle of business’ It’s really troublesome.
What will I become in the future… getting closer to the gods of the other world? Gradually detaching from human life.
“Although I have already prepared for the fact that I can no longer have a peaceful life …….”
Shen Yi looked at his own hand and remained silent for a long time, then raised his head and looked at everything in front of him, suddenly feeling a bit ridiculous.
He shook his head and pushed the feeling down again.
The glass door was pushed open and the familiar high school girl came into the store again.
She seemed to have solved the problem and her mood improved again.
Shen Yi immediately put away his thoughts and a skilled and gentle smile appeared on his handsome face.
“Welcome.”
In the afternoon, Tina came from school.
After changing into a cafe’s waitress’s uniform, Tina adopted a serious demeanor as she dove headfirst into her work.
When it came to dependability in the workplace, Shen Yi relied on Tina’s exceptional performance without hesitation, not only she carried out her tasks carefully and diligently, always welcoming the customers with warm and welcoming smile that exuded both friendliness and professionalism. Р
From serving customers promptly to ensuring that every order was accurately fulfilled, Tina’s work ethic was truly commendable.
She never resisted or raised any questions against Shen Yi’s arrangements and instructions, which was very save.
When there were fewer people around, she walked lightly behind the bar, and stood beside Shen Yi and spoke with a somewhat excited tone.
“Teacher, the basic part of the knowledge of occultism that you handed over to me, I think I’ve already learned almost everything, and I’ve memorized every sentence on it.”
So fast.
Wait, you memorized all of it?
You memorized so much in less than half a month?
Shen Yi was greatly surprised, but still said in a calm tone: “Well, it seems that your talent is very good.”
‘At least her memory was really good.’ he silently added in his heart.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems, Tina and Su Ling were both top students at the Beland Imperial College. After all, it is one of the best universities in the country…it basically gathers some of the best students in the world.
“Well done.”
Saying that he waited for her to go, but saw that Tina was still standing here, with a look of anticipation on her face.
From the look on it, he knew that she wasn’t here for just a compliment.
“Wait until evening.”
Tina also knew, the business was going on and there were still customers around now, nodding her head repeatedly, she turned around and carried on her work.
“Um!”
Evening.
After the last customers of the evening had departed, the cafe was left with a serene ambiance that hinted at the approaching end of the day. Shen Yi and Tina, began the familiar routine of cleaning up the cafe as they prepared to close for the night.
Operating efficiently, they wasted no time in organizing the remaining crockery, wiping down tables, and ensuring everything was in its proper place.
Taking a well-deserved short break, Shen Yi and Tina settled into chairs positioned face to face.
Then, Shen Yi assumed the role of a mentor, started a session to impart one of the basic invisible technique to Tina.
“This is a very simple invisible technique.”
“To perform this technique, you only need to use two of the ‘five pillars’, namely spells and tools.”
“Come on, Tina, what are the five pillars for performing the Invisibility Technique?”
Tina replied swiftly: “The transcendent powers that mortals can obtain from the Mysteries are basically categorized into two types: ‘innate power’ and ‘invisible skills’.”
“Among them, most of the invisible techniques are obtained from the Extraterrestrial god. They are also divided into two types non-taboo and taboo. Contact with the latter will lead to wanted by the Anti-Magic Bureau and the Church.”
“As for the five pillars of the invisible arts, they are spells (prayer, illusion, contract), instruments, sacrifices (costs), mediums, desires (wishes).”
It seems she really put lot of effort in it and memorized to it to the heart.
Shen Yi nodded slightly. “Yes, that’s right.”
“Next, the invisible art I’m going to teach you require a spells and tools.”
“The spell is…” Shen Yi repeated the spell he was going to use.
“Then, the tools required for this technique is also very simple, just a thin long piece of wood or a spoon, anyway, something similar. After reciting the spell, throw it gently to the ground.”
Tina without interruption listened attentively throughout, while taking out her notebook and starting to take note.
“You can use this method to find a way, not just a geographical way, but also a way in the sense of mysticism, such as deciding where to escape when you encounter danger.”
“The heavier part of the tool points in the right direction.”
“But its success rate is not 100%, so you should never rely on it too much.”
Shen Yi despite teaching her, in reality, did not think that Tina could achieve much in the field of occultism.
After all, her inspiration was too dull, and she was at the worst level of talent.
There weren’t that many good things in this world that could succeed with hard work.
Simply put, Tina was a “waste material”. Unless she has plug-ins or a system online, she will never achieve anything in her life.
But when seeing Tina’s serious expression, he couldn’t bear to refuse to teach her.
Just let her learn a little.
The simplest pathfinding art should not require much talent to be spent, and it would only take a little time to learn it.
Shen Yi recalled that in Yare’s memories, he had managed to learn this invisible art at the age of ten after only an hour with a few simple attempts.
Tina nodded with a smile and said, “Okay, I’ll practice more when I get home!”
Saying that her expression changed again.
“But, I am still afraid until now, afraid that the bad guy will come looking for me…”
Shen Yi shook his head and said. “Don’t worry, I will watch over your safety.”
He had already left a “record” in Tina’s house using the Book of Ten Direction Travelers, and would take a look at the situation from time to time.
Shen Yi also arranged for people from the Chaos Embers Order to be nearby.
Once something goes wrong, Shen Yi would take out the Book of Ten Travelers and use “Travel” to immediately arrive at the scene.
“Really?”
Tina was slightly stunned, and the smile on her face was full of trust.
Then, as she seemed to think of something, her face flushed slightly.
Shen Yi nodded and promised.
“Of course.”
Tina left the cafe happily after studying the new invisible art.
It’s a little after eleven at night.
Shen Yi was already preparing to go to bed when a strong vibration sensation began to appear in the café, causing him to stop immediately.
“At this point in time, it’s Byron.”
Shen Yi recalled that he had recently spoken to Byron in the dream world, asking him to prepare a new sacrifice as soon as possible.
Yes.
Byron did not dare to neglect the otherworldly god, and was very efficient, starting a new sacrifice not long after the interval.
“The White Mist Across the Shore, the Great Existence of the void world.”
“A Nameless, Ineffable, Shapeless, Mysterious God.”
“My heart is full of despair and pain, I take this as an opportunity to offer the arms of Thorsus.”
“I will do everything in my best, in my worst, just to pray that you show up and fulfill the only desire I have in my heart.”
Shen Yi heard the words of the prayer clearly, hmmm, what is “Thorsus’ arm”?
The new offering sounded a bit strange.
He shook his head and didn’t think much about that, the next step was to use the new summoning to experiment with his own conjecture.
Wasting no time, he directly went to the kitchen and took out a fresh apple.
Gradually, gray mist rose.
——
The suburb of Beland.
In a large, remote house with a dimly lit basement.
Byron, in black formal attire with a rose on his chest, stands in front of the outlined spell and recites the incantation once again.
“The White Mist Across the Shore, the Great Existence of the void world.”
“A Nameless, Ineffable, Shapeless, Mysterious God.”
“My heart is full of despair and pain, I take this as an opportunity to offer the arms of Thorsus.”
“I will do everything in my best, in my worst, just to pray that you show up and fulfill the only desire I have in my heart.”
It was already his fourth attempt to contact the Extraterrestrial god.
Byron took a deep breath, all three sacrifices had meant a great deal to him. Not only did they allow him to obtain two kinds of real forbidden knowledge, but they also brought his daughter back to life.
The death of his daughter had taken his heart, and there might be no more sorrow or joy in this life.
But, the great Him! The great white mist of the other side brought Eve back to life!
Just thinking about it makes Byron smile.
After acquiring two new types of forbidden knowledge, the invisible arts that Byron could perform, the things he could do became more and more numerous, and his strength gradually increased to the point where he could even be considered at the upper levels in the Disaster Class.
He even had a feeling that he might be able to break through the limits of human beings in his lifetime… and reach the “untouchable” level.
That powerful realm is also known as “near – divine”.
I will gain more knowledge and rise higher, Byron’s eyes were a little blurred.
“Plop.”
Yana, the poor assistant, fainted again and again and again on the sidelines.
Byron was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and found that his surroundings had been surrounded by a white mist.
He was immediately ecstatic.
The great god from the outside world is coming!
——
Shen Yi walked out of the gray fog and calmly looked at Byron, who was kneeling on the ground and had surrendered to himself.
Then his gaze moved bit further and fell on the sacrifice offered for this summoning.
What was placed on the magic circle was actually a shriveled white arm, without any blood color, and the blue blood vessels were twisted and wriggling, giving an inexplicable eerie feeling.
As he stared at the arm, he discovered that it actually moved!
The part above the wrist stood up, and it used its five fingers as “feet” to slowly crawl on the magic circle, as if trying to escape…
Just as it reached the circle end, an invisible force restricted its movement, preventing the shriveled and bloodless white arm from crawling out.
Shen Yi pondered for a long time, not knowing whether he should accept the sacrifice.
In fact, there was something special about his gift this time.
In order to get answers to the idea of ”gift transformation”, Shen Yi plans to do some simple experiments.
This time, there were three gifts that he was going to give to Byron!
Shen Yi took a deep breath and made a decision.
“I accept your sacrifice.”
The moment these words were spoken, it was as if some mechanism was triggered.
In the irregular magic circle, a shriveled and bloodless arm floated in the air, twisting and squirming in the air for a while, and then flew towards Shen Yi’s position quickly!
