The Lord Of The Mysteries

Chapter 69's

Klein turned his head and looked at the person who asked about the cow's tooth paeonol.

The man was less than a meter away from her. He was wearing a black suit and a halved hat of the same color. He had a wand decorated with silver in his hand and a pair of gold-framed glasses on his face. He has a delicate attitude.

"Yes, do you need it? It could be as much as three soli." The owner of the stall wore a long black robe, which was filled with mystical properties.

The questioner whose shell was pale yellow thought for a moment before saying, "Can it be cheaper? I still need to buy other materials as well. For example, this bottle of white-eyed sunflower petals."

The stall owner considered for a few seconds before reluctantly replying, "Two soli and six pence. I don't think you can find a cheaper price than that."

Klein immediately felt that he was thinking too much about things after seeing how the bespectacled man was buying materials other than beef tooth paeonol.

However, he still tapped on his glabella twice as a cautious act. He swept the man with his Spirit Vision.

There's no problem. He looks very healthy. His emotions are fine too. Sir, you should continue this .. Klein retracted his gaze, turned around, and looked at the stall selling homemade talismans once again.

The talisman was placed neatly before him. Some of them were made of pure silver, some with steel, others were forged from gold.

But only a few talismans had weak auras emanating from them, some deep red, some pale white, some golden.

This means that some of them have a weak trace of spirituality and are definitely effective to some extent!

Klein looked at the talisman carefully and made sure that the stall owner who made the talisman had a foundation of mysticism.

The stall owner made no mistake in matching different energy sources with different spells. He was also very accurate in choosing materials that corresponded to different energy sources.

Of course, a lover of mysticism will definitely make some mistakes. Klein noticed that the stall owner did not fully understand the mantra. One cannot make a mantra simply by translating the contents of the prayer into Hermes. Spells must follow a specific format that follows unique rules.

The other problem was that the stall owner had made mistakes in varying degrees when he chose a symbol suitable for the energy source. That explained why there were only two or three talismans that released a faint glow from the dozens laid before him.

As for how great the effect of two to three talismans was, Klein could only say that it was better than nothing.

A talisman that was completely equipped with real effects required the craftsman to release his spirituality from the sword while carving spells and symbols!

If one wanted better results, they would have to equip it with ritualistic magic.

And these two things were not something that ordinary people could achieve.

Klein tapped on his glabella twice, then pointed to the upper left corner of the stall with his black stick.

"How much for both?"

He did not ask about talismans that had rudimentary colored auras, but items that were half-finished. Other than the outer shapes, they were not carved with spells or symbols.

For Klein, there was no reason to buy talismans that had a weak effect. What he wanted to do was turn the half-finished talisman into a true talisman.

Hmm, I will make talismans that can protect someone from harm, for Benson and Melissa respectively. As for my own, I can ask the Nighthawks to provide the ingredients for me. Gosh, I must be influenced by Old Neil. I felt no guilt while doing such a thing. Klein's mind wandered as he watched the stall owner pick up the semi-finished silver talisman.

The first silver talisman is elongated and has a cavity in its center. Around him was a fur pattern like an angel. The work is complicated and very beautiful. Others are simple, almost completely without any additional decoration or carvings. It has a vertical line representing the night, and a circle representing the red moon.

Klein, who was very attentive to looks, immediately liked it.

"It's six soli," the middle-aged stall owner said as he pointed to the complicated talisman. He is a man who does not talk much.

After pausing for a while, he rubbed the simpler pieces and said, "It's five three pence soli."

"It's too expensive. They're still far from the talisman." Klein is slowly influenced by Benson and Melissa, so he begins to develop a habit of bargaining.

After a battle of words, she bought two silver accessories each for five six pence soli and four nine pence soli.

Yes, they could only be considered as silver accessories for now.

Ten three pence solis were deducted from the reimbursement he received for his Divination Club membership.

Klein received two silver accessories and stuffed them into his pocket. He was about to head to another stall when he heard a soft voice.

"Master, why don't you buy a complete talisman?"

Klein turned his head and found a teenage girl asking him that question. She was about fifteen years old and wore a lacy yellow dress while holding a hat veiled with ribbons.

"That's because I intend to make my own talisman. As you know, it is the wish of every lover of mysticism," Klein cut out his words and replied.

He did not want to make the stall owner think that he was trying to seize his business, although he had considered using his "skills" to earn money quickly.

The teenage girl had naturally curly brown hair, and her face was adorable because of her fat baby. He looked at Klein with his light blue eyes and asked sincerely, "Can I ask for your advice on choosing a talisman? Well, I was introduced here by a friend.I've been here a few times and have a deep interest in mysticism. But I still don't know much about it, and she, my friend, will soon be sixteen years old. I didn't take it because I wanted it to be a surprise. .. I had previously asked for his advice, but I can't remember many critical points."

Klein smiled politely.

“What kind of protection amulet are you looking for? Something to prevent a disaster? Something to avoid disease? Something that gives you luck? Different requirements would require different sources of energy which meant that they had to point to different gods. Different gods will have corresponding and different constellations. , and different constellations mean that different materials must be used.

"For example, the spell to prevent disaster belongs to the Queen of Disaster and Horror, who is the Goddess of Overnight. As fans of mysticism, we all know that the symbol of the Goddess Overnight is the moon. Thus, the corresponding metal would be pure silver.

"Therefore, if we hope to avoid disaster, it is best that we choose amulets made of pure silver and have a suitable spell."

The girl's eyes sparkled. He asked with some hesitation, "Can a follower of the Goddess wear an amulet belonging to another god?"

"No problem. The gods don't mind such little things," Klein comforted him.

It was not a problem for the person wearing the talisman, but the person making the talisman had to be careful. If a follower of the Lord of Storms made a talisman from the Eternal Blazing Sun, they would most likely receive something dangerous.

Of course, this refers to talismans that require the help of ritual magic. Artisans need not pay too much attention to this.

The teenage girl breathed a sigh of relief.

"i wish to give him a talisman for good health; which god should I choose? The Eternal Blazing Sun, Mother Earth, or the God of Knowledge and Wisdom?"

"There should be no problem with the Eternal Sun and Mother Earth. The former is represented by the sun while the latter is represented by the Brown Star." Klein smiled as he said, "The sun is gold, while the metal that symbolizes the Brown Star is tin. I would suggest the sun, but I don't know if you bring enough money."

The reason for his suggestion was because he had noticed that among the three talismans with rudimentary spiritual radiance, one of them was a health talisman that was under the domain of the sun.

"Isn't this.." Before the teenage girl finished her sentence, she paused and warily looked at the owner of the stall who was waiting in silence.

He thought for a moment before asking, "After I have decided on the material, how should I distinguish the appropriate spells and symbols?"

"Do you know Hermes?" Klein asked instead.

"i'm just starting to learn it" replied the teenage girl, a little embarrassed.

"Then let me choose it for you." Klein pointed at the health talisman made of gold and said, "This one has no problem, be it in the spell or the symbol it represents."

The teenage girl raised the tip of her dress and crouched down in front of the talisman. He took out a health talisman with a sun light design around the edges. He felt as if the talisman was nourishing him, making him feel completely relaxed.

"Thank you, thank you." He stood up and bowed with gratitude.

Klein laughed and said, "i'll leave the rest to you and the stall owner. There's something else I need to finish."

He looked at the stall owner as he spoke and noticed that the man had a strange look in his eyes, as if deciding whether he should give some of his profits to Klein.

Smiling, Klein did not care about the matter anymore. He kept going around the underground market, but he did not see any truly extraordinary materials.

At this point, Old Neil had already paid off his debt. He held a dark-colored wooden box in his hand.

He pointed to another room in the back and said after he saw Klein's doubtful expression, "Go there if you want to buy or sell incredible materials. After all, no one wanted to tell others what extraordinary items they bought."

"i understand." Klein nodded as if he was thinking.

There was no need for him to go there for now. He headed for the underground market exit along with Old Neil.

"How much is this elf flower?"

A question suddenly entered Klein's ears.

The fairy flower. It was also an ingredient for the Audience potion. He once again looked at the delicate bespectacled man.

"What's the problem?" Old Neil asked curiously.

"Not much." Klein retracted his gaze.

Although he was a quasi-member of the Nighthawks, he did not feel that all Beyonders should be absorbed by the Church or locked up. He believed that it should depend on the situation. The audience inevitably poses little danger to the community or kingdom, and the possibility of losing control as Order 9 is very slim.

…

After leaving the Evil Dragon Bar, Klein and Old Neil boarded a public train and left the harbor. They then split up in the North Borough and returned to their respective homes.

Public transport turns to Daffodil Road and stops on the side of the road. Klein was about to get off the carriage when he suddenly saw a young woman wearing a grayish-white dress about to board the carriage.

This woman had fine black hair, her face was somewhat round. He has thin eyes and simple features. But paired together, she gives off the feeling that she is sweet and gentle.

Klein noticed her not because of her beauty, but because she found that her body was slightly shuddering. It was an unnatural vibration.

"Miss, are you okay?" Klein asked with concern.

The young lady shook her head suddenly.

"No, I'm just too tired."

The people behind Klein urged him to get off, so Klein could only leave the carriage.

When he found his footing, he paid attention to the situation from before again. He pinched his glabella twice, planning to ascertain if the woman was indeed fine.

He intends to send her to the hospital if she has a serious illness that will soon appear.

Activating his Spirit Vision, the color of the aura began to surface. Klein turned around and prepared to look at the sweet and gentle young lady.
