Mystery: Lucky One

For a long time, no new words or pictures appeared on the surface of Arrodes. Alice felt that it... well, Alice didn't know how it felt at the moment.

But in short, the last words on the mirror turned into a weak sentence:
“I’m just a mirror.”

That made sense. No matter how bad a mirror was, people would not think it was peeping. Alice accepted this reason and patted the mirror, signaling it to ask the question quickly.

The most difficult part appeared. Arrodes didn't know what kind of mental struggle he went through, but it finally displayed a line of text:
"Would you like your ice cream with crushed nuts or with jam?"

good question.

The truth or dare game without outsiders was bound to be boring. Alice looked around and realized the boring fact. She didn't embarrass Arrodes. She just smiled and asked:

“Why can’t I have both?”

Arrodes popped up a surprising response: "An unexpected answer!"

This statement was accompanied by an animation of clapping, and Alice reached up and touched her chin, vaguely realizing that she might have broken the mirror.

This is really...

Alice shook her head with a wandering look in her eyes, then pretended to be calm and left the room. After negotiating with Archbishop Anthony, she walked out quickly.

Alice's purpose of coming here was basically accomplished, and she had no interest in asking again about how to obtain the Raven Shadow Serpent, because she realized that the answer would probably be the same, and if she didn't plan to catch it herself, then that would be enough.

Apparently she has no plans for this at the moment.

She quickly caught up with the person in front of her, crossed over without changing her expression, and continued moving forward.

After passing through several people one after another, the people Alice was traveling with disappeared, and some of them turned out to be workers from various industries.

Alice went back home without thinking about it and started thinking about how to trick one or more of the people she saw that day into actively looking for her to do business.

In fact, the place where she has the least need to be reserved is probably the church. Judging from the current situation, as long as she does not intend to commit suicide repeatedly to get the pension, everything can be discussed in the church.

If she has the above plans, she may need to talk to the goddess, or in layman's terms, ask the parents.

Alice doesn't want this to happen, so she has no plans to do so for the time being. She just puts the church higher in the sequence.

Will Auceptin and the "School of Life" seemed to Alice to be a completely bad idea. Unless one day Will Auceptin or she herself had a profound understanding of fate as profound as Charlie King's, there was no need to consider this matter.

In comparison, Amon and Adam might be more feasible options.

But Alice coldly threw the two brothers out of her options. Without taking the initiative to look for Bernadette, she still had two options left - Leonard, who seemed to have no brains, and Renette Tinicole, who was working as a messenger.

After Leonard's reliable yet unreliable image flashed in Alice's mind for a second, Alice arranged the ritual to summon the messenger without hesitation.

Miss Renette Tinicole appeared in mid-air, carrying four heads. She looked at Alice, and the four heads asked in turn:

"You..." "Need..." "Send a letter..." "Do you?"

The last head managed to grab a syllable to end the speech. Alice looked at the four heads that seemed to have their own consciousness and realized that this might not be good news. ——This angel's head didn't seem to be very obedient.

Maybe He really needs a fifth head... In any case, His four heads should at least not have their own consciousness.

Alice glanced at the messenger's head and asked thoughtfully:

"Did you have a problem with your promotion? Or is there something else?"

The messenger seemed to realize something from Alice's attitude. She did not answer Alice's question, but asked the previous question again:
"You..." "Need..." "A messenger..." "Do you?"

Alice looked at the last head that only managed to grab one syllable again and was silent for two seconds. Suddenly, she asked seriously:
"How did you decide which head would hold the envelope and the money?"

She did not ask Renette Tinicole how the four heads arranged the order in which they opened, because it was obvious that they came in the order in which they were arranged.

But this question was enough to make Renette Tinicole's computer crash. She was silent for a long time before answering:

“No…” “Deliberately…” “Arranged…” “Every time…” “Randomly…” “One.”

How could it be really random... Alice shook her head, but she didn't argue about this issue. Instead, she quickly got down to business:

“I actually wanted to talk to you about… uh, a deal.

"If I need you to help me hunt a creature in the spirit world, what would you want in return?
"This creature is called the Shadow of Doom, it..."

Alice described the characteristics of the Shadow of Doom that she knew clearly. After listening carefully to Alice's description, Renette Tinicole proposed what she wanted:
“I…” “need…” “temporarily…” “restore…” “strength…” “the…” “method.”

A way to temporarily restore strength - this is not difficult, Alice actually knows how to do it.

Just as Klein said, that kind of effect that is similar to the locked state can actually do a lot of things. For example, she can directly call out a person's prime state and maintain it for a period of time. It doesn't seem appropriate to describe this specifically as an ability. This is more of a development of the application of authority.

The first time she tried to do something similar was when she actually "crushed" the extraordinary characteristics of the "Master of Secret Arts" and the "Accessory of Fortune" provided by Klein.

The so-called "angel-level response" is actually a very vague concept, but Alice has to admit that no matter what, her attack power... is really terrible.

It was obviously not advisable to crush them with brute force, so the only option was to consider authority. After pondering for a long time, Alice briefly recalled the state of the two items when they were first condensed into extraordinary properties.

Thinking back to the present, Alice looked at Renette Tinicole and frowned slightly.

This requirement was not difficult for her. She only needed to make a few talismans through the ritual. The only trouble was...

The material that carries the talisman.

Thinking of this, Alice smiled calmly:
“I can provide a spell with similar effects... but you need to prepare the materials and rituals yourself.

"I am only responsible for responding to the ceremony." (End of this chapter)
