Chapter 105 Afterglow
Professor Manning was very familiar with starting a conversation with Miss Luisa, starting from Judging from the content of the conversation, he seems to know Miss Luisa's father:

"That pen, I have an impression. I bought it from an old writer who lived two streets away through a friend's introduction. , the writer was in very bad physical condition at that time, dark circles, mentally lethargic, like myasthenia gravis."

The professor sat on the chair behind the desk and said with his arms folded together. Behind him was a whole bookshelf, but the books were not neatly arranged, and some books even had notes in them, swaying in the wind outside the window.

But Shade loves the decor.

Ms. Luyisa glanced at Shade, the professor's description of the old writer, it is obvious that the other party is addicted to the pen and hollowed out his body. Before dying, I decided to sell the pen and stay away from those temptations, but unfortunately it was too late.

But fortunately, Professor Manning is full of energy. He probably never used the pen, but only regarded it as a collection.

"Yes, I just wanted to buy that pen from you this time. To be honest, the old writer you mentioned was a friend of mine who passed away two months ago. I'm done."

Miss Luyesha made a regretful expression, and Shade followed her example and put down the teacup.

"That pen is probably a relic. I am also an old friend of the old writer. I want to buy it back. You can make an offer. I think as long as the price is reasonable, I can accept it."

The professor thought for a while:
"If it's a friend's relic, of course I won't sell it. In this way, I'll go to the collection room upstairs first and get the pen back, please wait a moment. Let me go."

He stood up and asked the maid to bring some snacks for the two guests.

So both the maid and the professor left the study, and the black cat followed. After confirming that their footsteps were all gone, Shade said slightly relaxed:

"It's just like this, I thought it would be troublesome."

"Look, I Just say, this matter is very safe, just take it as your long-term knowledge."

Miss Luyesha said.

Shade Noble picked up the teacup again, and asked curiously:

"Then what are the side effects of the clerical-level relic [Happy Dream Pen? It's just to attract people to use it, and then use it Is the body of the victim gradually deteriorating?"

He was curious about this, although there were quite a few relics in his hands, but it was the first time he had seen something so novel.

"Not only that, if you use the dream pen for a long time, the dream pen absorbs too much spirit strength and blood, then it is possible to make the dream come true. The terrifying thing born from the dream pen , which can simply be considered a materialized nightmare. That's why it's classified as a clerical class."

The writer explained that Shade made a look that this thing was awesome.

As for Miss Lucy's wanting this pen, it's not that she wants to try it out, or that she wants to hand it in to the Academy to get a reward. As a writer, Ms. Luysha's own warlock system is also based on the [writer] core rune.

She recently met the bottleneck who was studying Mystic Art, so she wanted to find some relics with similar powers for inspiration, which is like Shade buying [Silver Moon Orb] to strengthen her understanding of Silver Moon Mystic Art of learning.

The two chatted about the history of the pen's containment, and mentioned that the probability of the dream pen being held by men is far greater than that of women.

At this time, I heard footsteps and realized that the maid was back, so I turned to discuss the good weather today.

The fat maid in the headscarf brought them new black tea and a stack of snacks, some muffins, and butter on the side. Professor Manning's standard of living is indeed not bad.

"Sorry, I wanted to get something that cats can eat, but I couldn't find it in a hurry."

The maid apologized to Shade again, and Shade shook his head and was about to say It's okay, but suddenly realized a question:
"You mean, Professor Manning has nothing for cats to eat here?"

His hand slammed into the armrest of the back seat , Miss Luysha also frowned looking at the maid.

The middle-aged woman didn't know why the two had this expression, but she was still hesitantly nodded:

"The professor doesn't have pets at home, so I don't."

"Did you see it just now?"

Shade turned to ask Miss Luyisa, who replied quickly:
"Of course I did, the black cat."

The two got up almost at the same time, and Shade put Mia on the chair instead of carrying it.

"Here, help me take a look at the cat, don't let it run around."

He said to the maid, while Miss Luisa patted the fat maid The shoulders, the tone became extremely soothing:
"Stay in the room, don't leave until we come back."

The maid's eyes immediately became slack, very stiff nodded. This move Shade has seen that in the garden labyrinth of Lake View Manor, the ring warlock Captain of the Orthodox Church has used a similar ability, but it is probably not as good as Professor Sanchez's [Charm Human].

Leaving the cat and the fat maid in the study, with Miss Luysha in front and Shade in the back, the two walked towards the third floor. When stepping up the stairs, Shade still asked in his mind:

"Why didn't I remind me of the 'Whisper' element?"

[Because I didn't feel it. ]

"But that cat is very close to me."

[It's not the main body, since the other party was born in a dream, the probability of revealing the main body in front of you is very low. What you should see is just a false vision of the nightmare watching you. ]

"So the shortcoming of the 'other me' reconnaissance ability lies in the distance."

Shade concluded in his heart.

Walking up the stairs behind Miss Luyisa, the two stopped on the last Level 1 steps to the third floor. The third floor is still full of life, with photos of professors hanging in the corridor, and cardboard boxes with no apparent purpose stacked on the walls.

But there was no sound on the entire floor, and all the doors were closed. Miss Luysha tentatively called out Professor Manning's name, but got no response.

She cautiously said to Shade:
"Follow me for a while, although it is a nightmare born from the relic, but from the state of Professor Manning, the nightmare born from the loss of control of the relic should only be a nightmare. Newborn form. When I patted the maid on the shoulder and checked her condition, she was very ordinary, which means that the nightmare didn't even have time to do anything to the rest of the house."

Miss Luisa yes Shade said, with the steam gushing behind him, the brass-colored ring of life was fully revealed.

Shade nodded and followed Goldilocks off the stairs to the third floor. Miss Luyisa seemed to be testing something, she paused in front of each door on the third floor, and then continued to the next door.

Her back is very beautiful, I don't know if it was because the weather was too hot, Miss Luyisa's back was soaked wet, and the clothes on her back seemed to be transparent near the swaying golden hair. Let Shade see
"en?"

Shade was alert and stopped. The outsider's knowledge is far and wide, and the situation at this moment makes him have a bad guess.

"Could it be right now?"

He had a feeling in the heart and looked down towards his hand. On the back of his bare hand, the originally flat skin was cracked inch by inch, golden. The ray of light shines beneath those cracks. Roll up the sleeves and the rips run from the hands to the entire body. Almost in the blink of an eye, his whole body was covered with golden cracks, and even cracks appeared on his clothes.

The brilliant golden light radiates from the inside of the crack. Warm and soft, but very sacred and solemn.

This is just a visual effect, instead of feeling pain, Shade feels a sense of strength and warmth.

"This is it"

He said incredulously, shaking his palms, there was a golden glow flashing in the air. As the body swayed, the hem pulled back the golden light marks.

[You don't think that the so-called afterglow is just spoken out? ]

PS: I forgot to mention it in the morning. I wish all readers a happy Dragon Boat Festival and don't forget to eat zongzi.
