Main Text Volume Chapter 429 Return to the Surface World
Two hours later.
Felicia still stayed inside the ghost ship, opening doors along the corridor, and each door gave her a different experience.
When she saw a blood-stained book, she would imagine a tortuous story; when she saw a torn pink letter, she seemed to see a man's courtship of a thirsty girl; when she saw a smashed ancient mirror, she seemed to see a hysterical young woman... In every room, she would see many stories that made her feel new and even amazing.
But in fact, there was no one behind the door. All the stories came from objects, and they were all imagined by her, but they were certain.
At this time, she pushed open a dark door.
Inside the door, it was also dark. After Felicia entered it, she found that she seemed to have fallen into a chaotic world before she took a few steps... She was neither up nor down, floating up and down, and had no fixed place.
Felicia continued to walk forward with curiosity. As she walked, she felt her soul tremble suddenly.
Felicia was startled and thought someone was attacking her soul, so she subconsciously wanted to get out of the illusion. Her mental power instantly left the illusion and saw the real world - the first floor hall of the Black Castle... Felicia was stunned. In other words, it was easy for her to jump out of the illusion?
After all, Angel's original intention of making the illusion was not to restrict anyone, so it was not difficult for her to leave.
Knowing that it was safe and she could leave the illusion at any time, Felicia calmed down instead. She was ready to stay in the illusion to see what Angel was doing.
When her mental power tentacles left her body, she glanced at Greya who was sitting on the sofa. At some point, Greya's eyes were filled with tears.
Felicia was stunned for a moment, a little curious about what Greya saw.
Felicia returned to the dark space again. After walking for an unknown period of time, she suddenly heard a strange syllable in her ears.
The syllables sounded vague, but the voice was familiar? It seemed like the voice of Lady Isabel.
Could Angel imitate Lady Isabel's voice? As Felicia was thinking, the syllables began to repeat and speed up.
Every time she said a syllable, her soul trembled once. Later, those strange syllables even made her soul feel like she was leaving her body.
When the last syllable sounded, Felicia felt that a tall and dazzling door suddenly appeared in her soul land, and her soul came out of the huge door. At the same time, a white light flashed in front of her eyes, and she stood in front of the dark cabin door again.
Felicia was stunned for a moment. She curiously felt her soul land... It was as quiet as before, and her soul stayed there safely, without any sign of leaving her body.
So, what she had experienced before was actually an illusion in an illusion? Felicia recalled her previous experience in the dark chaos: "It actually made people feel the real soul leaving their body."
She showed a thoughtful expression, always feeling a bit like some kind of experience illusion. Such an illusion may be helpful to those who are learning the art of soul ribbon.
And Felicia was a little concerned about why Lady Isabel's voice appeared in the illusion?
"This illusion is getting more and more interesting." Felicia raised her lips.
She left the dark door and continued to move to the next room.
Every room here is a novel treasure house for her. She didn't know how Angell could "read a story from an item", but just the details in each cabin showed Angell's good intentions in making the illusion.
When Angell gave the feather earrings to Graya, Felicia actually watched the whole process. She felt that Angell underestimated her ability at the time. Now that she has truly felt the magic of this illusion, she deeply feels that Angell is indeed too self-deprecating.
Such a wonderful illusion, such earnest craftsmanship, such real details. It is estimated that most alchemists cannot make it if it is handed over to them.
Angel was so young, but he not only made it, but also showed his thoughts in every detail. This is what moved her.
Felicia walked to a room at the end of the cabin. The door was blood red and engraved with an anchor symbol.
She had been visiting this ghost ship until now, but there was no accident. This made her feel unhappy. What's the point of exploring a ghost ship without any danger?
So when she saw this blood-red door, she had a hunch that maybe there would be a surprise behind this blood door... The truth of the ghost ship might be behind the door.
Felicia's perspective slowly merged into the blood-red door...
"Ah - don't come near me - get out of here!!!"
Just then, a scream came from an unknown place. Felicia was stunned. Before she could react, the whole illusion suddenly stagnated, turned into soft white feathers, and disappeared without a trace.
What she saw was not a blood-red door, but the hall on the first floor of the Black Castle. She sat on the sofa with a glass of sake in her hand.
Felicia was a little dazed. How could the illusion suddenly disappear?
Felicia felt a tremor on her side. She turned her head to look at Greya who was sitting next to her, only to see Greya hugging her knees and trembling.
She also noticed that the feather earring was thrown by Greya on the carpet in the distance, shining with faint light.
So, Greya stopped activating the feather earring and threw it aside... So, the illusion disappeared? Felicia suddenly realized it.
Although she felt a little sorry for not seeing the scene behind the blood-red door, she was more concerned about Greya's condition than the things in the illusion: "Greya, what's wrong with you?"
Greya looked at Felicia tremblingly, with helpless pleading in her eyes.
When Felicia was about to say something, Greya took the initiative to put her soul into a deep sleep and released another girl's soul to take over the body.
Greya, whose expression changed, looked confused and immature, "Sister? What's wrong with you?"
Felicia sighed for a long time. I don't know what happened to Greya. She actually gave up her soul again, even though her soul has almost recovered.
"Sister, I'm hungry." Greya said aggrievedly.
Felicia shook her head and let Greya cook. She picked up the feather earrings from the floor, and a hint of sinisterness flashed in her eyes.
Could it be that... Angel really tricked Greya in the illusion?
With that boy's alchemy skills, it might be possible.
Thinking of this, Felicia pinched the feather earrings and returned to her bedroom. She planned to return to the illusion again. This time, she would no longer stay on the coast, nor would she board the ghost ship again. She wanted to see what kind of situation she would experience by following the wine thief? Greya was so scared!
...
When Felicia was about to start another main line of the illusion, Angel just returned to the surface world.
It was just noon.
As soon as he came out of the corpse cave, Angel felt a biting cold wind blowing across his exposed skin. Looking around, I don't know when, the Resentful Forest was covered by a thick layer of snow.
The ground was also covered with soft white snow that was enough to cover the ankles.
Boom boom boom——
Angel heard a loud noise behind him, and when he looked back, he found that Shadow was looking for death, and kicked the trunk of a big tree, shaking off all the snow on the branches. He laughed and ran out of the range of the snow.
But his puppet, the blonde beauty Naga, was covered with snow because of Shadow's deliberate mischief.
"Ah, ah, Ms. Naga, please let me wipe off the frost on you." Shadow stretched out his finger and hooked Naga's chin. The image of Shadow was reflected in Naga's blue eyes.
"Master, please don't do this." Naga's face was blushing, and her voice was cold and indifferent. Although it was plain and straightforward, it made people hear a little shyness.
"What don't you want?" Shadow hugged Naga, with spring feelings on his face.
Since he got Naga, his long-cherished wish finally came true, and he has been smiling. He didn't dare to express too much in the Black Castle before, but after he was completely away from the Black Castle's control, he began to interact with Naga constantly.
It was at this time that Angel realized that Naga not only could speak, but also had certain thinking abilities.
He remembered that the last time he looked at Naga from a distance, the huge pressure from Naga was only for him, but Shadow didn't feel it at all. It can be seen that Naga was letting Shadow go at that time, which means that Naga already had basic thinking abilities at that time.
Such a powerful wizard-level puppet, coupled with basic thinking abilities. This made Angel a little afraid. If he hadn't had a contract with Shadow, he probably wouldn't dare to stand next to Shadow.
"Master, I'm a little cold..."
"Come into my arms, I'll keep you warm."
Seeing that the play seemed to be getting more and more intense, Angel hurriedly said: "You can act however you want, but I'm going back to Waterglass now... Shadow, let's make an appointment, where will we meet tomorrow?"
"No, no! I'm staying with you today, but I don't have a penny on me, and I'm going to borrow some from you to buy some clothes." Although he is wearing a robe now, he is actually walking around in the open air.
Angel frowned, "Then let's go."
Before they left, Shadow released the group of poor apprentices who had been controlled for almost two weeks. For Shadow, the great enemy, they didn't even dare to fart, and the birds and beasts scattered. Only the magician glared at Shadow with a vicious look, and showed a hint of doubt to Angel, and then ran down the mountain.
After returning to Waterglass, Angel threw a bag of money to Shadow and let him buy necessities by himself. He returned to the villa in the Bay Area first.
