Chapter 461: An Evolving Wizard Tool
Thinking of this, Jia Na couldn't help but look at Qimeng Butterfly with a strange, hard-to-decipher expression.
If these few strings were indeed refined from the souls of Dream Realm creatures, then for Qimeng Butterfly, a Dream Realm creature, it would be nothing short of a “nightmare.”
“Alright, I have nothing else for you here, you may go back now.”
“Understood, Master. I look forward to your next summons.”
As Yu Yi, accompanied by a flash of colorful light, Qimeng Butterfly, hastily summoned by Jia Na, was sent back into the Dream Realm.
“Besides this harp, there isn't even a single explanatory note in the box. Does that mean I need to appraise it myself?”
Thinking of this, Jia Na couldn't help but take out a black wizard tool shaped like a lotus from her thorn bracelet.
Concealed Corner: Can establish a secret space that cannot be perceived or detected by others, lasting for seventy-two hours.
When Jia Na first obtained this wizard tool, she only vaguely knew its general purpose, but she wasn't clear on the specific details.
It wasn't until Jia Na found an appraiser to perform a functional appraisal of Concealed Corner that she learned the hidden effect of this wizard tool could last for seventy-two hours.
“Wizard Kuroro-kin is really something; he should at least let me know the name of this harp—”
As she spoke, Jia Na picked up the not-too-heavy twenty-three-string harp from the box.
However, the moment she picked it up, a sudden magical fluctuation flashed from the bottom of the box.
“So the mechanism is here.”
Upon sensing the magical imprint at the bottom of the box, Jia Na, who had some basic knowledge of Alchemy, immediately cast the Mental Perception wizardry, immersing her mental power into the magical imprint.
Flotenus Strings:
① The performer must master the power of the Law of Beauty or the law of love, and possess the Extraordinary Charm talent;
② A captivating magnetic field will appear around the performer during the performance; those affected by the magnetic field will have their emotions and consciousness controlled by the performer's mind until their soul completely sinks;
③ When performing with the power of the soul, a “Dream Seal” can be constructed to seal the listener's soul within a dream;
④ Increases all Sound-type magic by two hundred percent;
⑤ In addition to the abilities of the Law of Beauty and the law of love, the performer can also use other Law abilities in the form of “Movements”;
When the Flotenus Strings absorb enough emotional energy, they will gain active characteristics—
As Jia Na's mental power entered the magical imprint left by Kuroro-kin, all sorts of information about the Flotenus Strings flooded into Jia Na's mind.
Upon seeing the description of the Flotenus Strings, Jia Na's expression gradually shifted from initial surprise to disbelief.
“Captivating magnetic field… Dream Seal… Magic amplification… Adaptable to other Law abilities… and, active characteristic…”
If this item hadn't been gifted by the renowned “Puppet Master” Kuroro-kin, Jia Na would have immediately suspected this harp was a scam upon seeing its functional description.
After all, how could a “harp” whose quality was merely that of an apprentice-level weapon possess so many, and such incredibly bizarre, characteristics?
“He actually made it exactly according to my requirements!”
Previously, when Jia Na took first place in the Andrew-Gump Transformation Trial, Kuroro-kin, as one of the examiners, called Jia Na into a separate room and asked her to write down all her ideas for a “custom wizard tool” on a piece of paper.
Therefore, Jia Na, adhering to the principle of making the most of everything, wrote down all her demands for a “custom weapon” in one go.
These included: compatibility with the various Law Fragments she had mastered, durability, dual functions for combat and defense, mental control abilities, aesthetic appearance…
And, the hope that her “custom wizard tool” could possess the infinitely evolving ability that only “mythical wizard tools” have—that is, an active characteristic that allows it to “grow together” with the user.
When Jia Na wrote down these ideas, she didn't expect many of them to be realized—especially the last one, which she had only “written for fun.”
However, what Jia Na didn't expect was that Kuroro-kin, this “contractor,” actually fulfilled most of her demands!
Especially when Jia Na saw the sixth description of the Flotenus Strings, she even had the illusion that she was dreaming.
“Next time I see Wizard Kuroro-kin, I must thank him in person!”
Gently stroking the smooth body of the Flotenus Strings, Jia Na's gratitude towards Kuroro-kin at this moment reached its peak.
Just as the sixth description stated, if the Flotenus Strings truly possessed an active characteristic, then it would genuinely evolve from an “apprentice-level wizard tool” into a “mythical wizard tool.”
By then, even if Jia Na later advanced to a Formal Wizard, she could still continue to use this wizard tool.
“It's just a pity that the Flotenus Strings lean more towards the power of the Fragment of the Law of Beauty, and it's not truly compatible with the path of wizardry I will take in the future.”
Jia Na's future path of wizardry is destined to take the Law of Nature and Life as its promotion goal.
And powers like the Law of Beauty and Purification Law, which do not belong to the “Life and Nature Authority,” can only serve as Jia Na's auxiliary Laws and not her primary focus—
“Oh, and the prerequisite for using this wizard tool, besides certain requirements for mastering the Law and the Extraordinary Charm talent, also requires the performer to actually know how to play the harp—
And this condition, for Jia Na, who had only sporadically encountered a few instruments in the Nightingale Opera Troupe before, truly required her to invest a lot of effort into learning.
“I wonder if there are any harp playing tutorials available at the White Tower's resource exchange point—”
Sizzle—
Just as Jia Na was about to imprint her soul mark onto the Flotenus Strings, suddenly, a sizzling sound of crackling sparks once again came from the fireplace.
“It's Vivian's letter!”
After the sparks, there was a white letter still carrying the scent of wind and snow.
Especially when Jia Na saw the rose pattern in the lower right corner of the letter, her already good mood became exceptionally bright, like the sunshine outside the dormitory window—
