Chapter 4184 Royal Ancestor
Using only a lock and sublimated words without a container could be considered a form of containment according to the textbook definition, but this method is quite unstable. Moreover, that artificial lake is located in the heart of the densely populated upper city of Arcadia, and containing relics in such an area is inherently risky.
The crystal ball is currently in Principal Pigman's possession and will become a containment object of St. Byron's Comprehensive Academy in the future. However, no one knows the exact stability of the crystal ball made by Miss Felian Anna, nor whether it has any other special properties.
Therefore, the crystal ball was not brought back to the academy, but was temporarily placed in the church of the Church of Creation, which is closest to Arcadia City. The three major academies and the Church of the Five Gods will all study the crystal ball that sealed the Leatherworks Guild, which is also a good thing for the academy.
After all, the danger and complexity of a Sage-level relic like the [Leatherworks Guild] are no less than those of a typical Angel-level relic. Leaving it in Arcadia City for the safety of the academy students is a win-win situation.
Denise left in the afternoon to deal with this matter; the "Caller of Gods" had handed the crystal ball over to St. Byron's College, and as the librarian, she couldn't possibly remain uninvolved.
"Also, the two ordinary people you rescued from the guild hall are now being questioned by the local Sun Church. Whether they are normal or not will require a series of complicated tests, but both girls were able to tell you their origins."
As Sevi greeted everyone in the foyer, she asked:
"Guess, Shad, that ordinary-looking black-haired girl you mentioned in the story—yes, the one who almost made the wrong choice—what does she claim to be?"
Claire stood beside Shad:
"Since you've said that, her identity must be extraordinary. Shad said they lived 600 years ago, and she even has black hair. Could she be Vigor's ancestor? An ancestor of the Astley family?"
She made a very reasonable guess, but Sylvie smiled and shook her head:
"Close, but not quite. She claims to be a princess of the Kingdom of Delinor, while the Astley family is only a suspected royal descendant, so you guessed wrong."
Flora, however, was somewhat curious:
"Is she telling the truth? I think the princesses of Anjou from the United Kingdom of Carsenrick and the princesses of Cavendish from the Kingdom of Delario are all very beautiful. Agelina, Lacey, and Margaret are all top-notch beauties. How come the princesses of the Kingdom of Delinor are so ordinary-looking?"
Lacey was quite happy to be praised:
"In any family with enough offspring, there will always be an outcast. But this also explains why the tanners thought she would crave someone else's skin."
In the royal family, everyone else is good-looking, but you're just plain ordinary. That's the main reason you're not favored and are bullied by your siblings. If Shad hadn't proposed signing an agreement with the guild, that girl probably would have really attacked him. I'm quite interested in the princess from six hundred years ago; I wonder if I'll ever have the chance to meet her.
Viggo roughly knows that her family is indeed a descendant of the royal family from back then, but compared to her ancestors from six hundred years ago, she cares more about Shad and her sister. So even though Daniste sent this news, Viggo's curiosity about the girl is not as strong as that of Lacey.
However, Shad did not immediately go to the underground palace to visit Vigo and Bella, who were busy working. The girls went to their respective rooms to change their clothes. Shad simply took off his coat and put on the new clothes that Winnie handed him. Then, he opened the box that Iluna had obtained from the [Furry Guild] in the study.
Iluna had already mentioned during the picnic that this was something Miss Feliana and Brienne had deliberately left in the clubhouse. Shad knew that besides the method to deal with the clubhouse, there must be something else inside.
"really."
Upon opening the box, Shad immediately spotted the notebook bearing the emblem of the "Lady of Creation." The notebook, decorated with church symbols, was issued to clergy. Opening it, Shad indeed found forbidden techniques for transforming soul and flesh into liquid, and for reverting that liquid back into flesh and soul.
This secret method was developed and widely used in the Fourth Age. Mrs. Gustav promised Shad that she would search for this forbidden technique of the Fourth Age at the Papacy, and it seems that the old witch really did keep her word. She also passed on the information she found to Miss Ferriananna, who then passed on this knowledge to Shad through the [Leatherworks Guild], which Shad was bound to visit.
Shad only glanced through it before instructing Miss McDonald to take the notebook to the underground palace, hoping the knowledge would be helpful to Viggo. Even if Peggy Flamel's technology differed from ancient technology, the ancient knowledge could at least provide Viggo with some reference.
"Among witches, the best alchemists are Granny Cassandra, Megan Audrey, and the Great Witch of Creation. It's a pity that none of them came this time."
Besides Mrs. Gustave's notebook, there were of course other documents in the suitcase, but probably because of the special environment in the [Leather Goods Hall], some of the texts and letters had faded to the point of being completely illegible, and some had even been distorted into something that even a "literate person" from out of town could not decipher.
Perhaps it was the influence of the relics, or perhaps the rules of time did not allow so much information to cross eras and reach Shad's hands; Shad accepted this outcome.
"What are you looking at?"
Luvia and Dorothy walked in shortly afterward, indicating that the doctor's meeting had ended.
“The things Miss Feliananna and the others left me, it must have been very difficult for them to collect these materials after I said goodbye to them at the academy.”
Shad put down the roll of parchment in his hand:
"Is there anything going on with the doctor today?"
"No, Tobeske is fine. The doctor reminded us not to forget about the summer exam week, oh, and these things."
Dorothy handed the wooden box she was holding to Shad:
"This is an amulet that the priest asked us to bring to you. It can protect the wearer from the effects of the 'Twisted Fire.' There are nine in this batch. The priest said he should be able to make more next week, as he has gained some experience."
The priest's amulet was very important to Shad. Although he could ward off the world's calamities with the "Spark Mark," the girls around him did not have this ability.
Shad planned to trade two of the nine amulets to the church, leaving the rest for the girls who wanted to be active in the area. But that wasn't the point. Shad gestured for Luvia and Dorothy to sit down:
"Miss Feliana has really left me with a lot of good things."
"Yes, yes, we can all tell she 'dotes' on you a lot~"
The writer joked, but Xia De couldn't refute it, so he could only introduce:
"The old witch of the church found the secret method to turn the 'Life Solution' back into flesh and blood. In addition, Miss Feliananna helped me find some information related to the 'Mechanical Plague,' the 'Spark,' and the Creator. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any trace of the Moon Egg or the normal Spark. The text in the box didn't mention them at all."
As he spoke, he took out another thick book from his suitcase:
"And this, this is a book written by Miss Feliananna based on her research on the destroyed life furnace in the [Blood Factory], which is said to allow ring warlocks to obtain spirit runes, 'Creation and Flesh: The Art of Human Forging'."
If you're interested, you can take a look. Besides obtaining runes from reading the book, it also contains many secret techniques related to the creation of flesh and blood, as well as methods for tempering one's own body. Although some letters are missing in the last third, the knowledge within still seems invaluable to me.
This book, like the notes of Ferrianana that Shad received from the "Forest of a Thousand Trees," was a gift left to him by that violet-beautiful witch. Miss Ferrianana had been helping him from the very beginning, and she still was.
Dorothy and Luvia curiously looked through the documents in the suitcase, which included the method of sealing the "Leatherworks Guild" with a crystal ball. Miss Feliana was clearly worried that the doll would not be able to follow Shad into the Sixth Age.
The ancient scroll contained all the information about that magical alchemical artifact, but unfortunately the letters on the scroll were so worn that less than half of the information could be identified. Otherwise, the academy and the church would not have needed to risk exploring the stability of the crystal ball.
"If crystal balls like this could still be made in this era, perhaps even the [House of False Humans] could be successfully contained. And the [Dwelling of Personality], I think we might encounter it in the future as well."
Dorothy marveled that the crystal ball was made using spatial powers, and she was trying to find useful knowledge from the scroll of parchment.
"The House of False Humans. Some of the false humans were left in the [Leather Goods Guild], but the vast majority of the [House of False Humans]'s power left, and they did indeed draw power from the [Leather Goods Guild]."
When this topic came up, Shad's expression remained relaxed:
"They swore an oath to the ancient gods to cooperate with me, and now that their goal has been achieved, they will most likely keep their promise and tell me the secret information."
We don't need to worry about the false people causing trouble locally. The Leather Goods Guild is sealed in front of them. The false people are just crazy, not unintelligent. Moreover, even if they gain power from the Leather Goods Guild, it will take them a very long time to recover.
Aside from the demon that has now revealed its presence, there shouldn't be any other problems this troublesome locally anytime soon.
