"Wake up! Stop living like a young master!"
"Well……"
Hitzfeld frowned, clamped his legs together and wrapped himself in the quilt, wanting to stay unconscious for a while.
She finally had the chance to stay in bed, so she got up early on the days she could - what a waste of time.
"You have fallen, little Annie." The earring turned into a blood crow and flew to her head, then leaned close to her ear and whispered to her.
"I am considering becoming your mentor and teaching you how to develop the power of blood and nightmares. Since you like to fall, I will keep the knowledge and teach others."
"Ok?"
Hitzfeld opened his eyes immediately, no longer feeling sleepy at all.
She quickly got up, washed, and sat down at the table. She held the little crow in both hands and placed it in front of her. The girl bowed her head respectfully.
"You may begin, Ms. Yusilian."
"Start the ass!"
"I told you to live a normal life, have you eaten yet?"
"Go eat!"
"..."
Hitzfeld walked downstairs with a gloomy face, and halfway down he suddenly laughed.
It was like being scolded like a child.
How long has it been since you had this experience?
So this is what it feels like to be Ashley.
After boiling water and pouring some milk into a jug, Hitzfeld looked out the window, thinking that the estate was large enough that he could raise some livestock to provide fresh dairy products.
It is difficult to keep dairy products fresh in this era. It is not realistic to use ice cubes to keep them fresh in hot weather. They will spoil easily if left for a long time. But it is different if there are cows. Fresh milk should taste better.
Hitzfeld doesn't drink milk, and she still hates most dairy products, just for the sake of others.
After making a few breakfasts, she heard the sound of a door closing outside.
Walnut is back. Pinocchio doesn't need to rest for too long. He goes out for patrol every morning and checks the condition of the cables.
He handed the work at hand to Walnut, telling her which food was for humans and which was for pets, and asked her not to forget to take care of Black Owl. Then Hitzfeld went upstairs with a plate of scrambled eggs in his hand.
The plate of scrambled eggs was finally placed in front of Blood Crow.
"Eat?"
It was just a polite question, but I didn't expect the Blood Crow to eat so voraciously that it started pecking at the plate in an instant.
"Can you eat?"
Hitzfeld was horrified.
"How bizarre." The crow mocked her, "Is it surprising that a talking thing can eat? Oh, robots can eat, but I can't?"
Seeing that she was still shocked, Blood Crow added: "Although I am just a drop of blood, I can also replenish energy by devouring organic matter."
"Infinite?" the girl asked her.
"What is infinity?"
"You can devour organic matter... I mean, if you are given blood-replenishing food, can you complete yourself into another real you?"
"It's impossible." The crow shook his head. "Otherwise, any bit of skin can be used to copy us. Those ugly monsters are not incapable of such tricks. We are all unique. This is impossible."
"If you come to be my mentor, will you teach me these things?"
"These are just some trivial common sense. To be honest, you really need to supplement your knowledge of orthodox mysticism."
"Orthodox?"
"It refers to the knowledge bred in Namibia. You are half Namibian. Learning these things will be beneficial to you in terms of your 'personality'."
"Is the knowledge I learned before not good enough?"
"Your current knowledge system is not only what you learned by yourself, but also inherited from those ugly freaks, the bullshit Mystic Lord... You eliminated most of it because you realized it would affect you and interfere with you, right? Then this knowledge system has become completely deformed. You dare not use the powerful parts openly, and the rest are all useless waste... You need to learn more orthodox mysticism to balance this relationship. It's like having the best of both worlds... Do you understand?"
"I see. Just like the Sun King stepped on you and the Dragon Girl."
"...I won't accept a stupid student like you, get out right now!"
Being with Ms. Yusilian wasn't that unbearable after all.
Hitzfeld thought happily.
Maybe she has figured out some tricks.
After the argument, they returned to the original topic.
"Not only can I explain the power of blood to you, but I can also help you make further progress in your research on nightmares and gray fog."
The Blood Crow walked with a proud stride.
"Don't forget - you still have three evil eye essences to absorb. Only I know where this power is, and only I can guide you on how to absorb it safely."
The origin of the three evil eyes?
Hitzfeld narrowed his eyes.
She hadn't forgotten it, and this was even one of the reasons why she agreed to go on the adventure to Elsa.
It's just that the final battle seemed too brutal, and everyone assumed that Sina and the Nine Evil Gods were exiled to the deep space. The distance was so far that no one had any thoughts about them at all. But they didn't expect that they were taken in by Ms. Yusilian.
At this moment, a terrible thought arose in Hitzfeld's mind.
The Nine Evil Gods are immortal and indestructible, so it shouldn't be that easy to completely eliminate them.
Compared to the past, Ms. Yusilian only has the True Blood Spirit that Sina possesses - that is, the spiritual consciousness born from the original body of the Divine Blood Heir. This thing cannot play a decisive role no matter how you look at it.
Rather than believing that the Nine Evil Gods were killed by a huge explosion, she would rather believe that Ms. Yusirion ate them...
After all, this person is not an ordinary person.
What Yin Seer couldn't do might not be difficult for her...
"how?"
The crow began to shake his head.
"You won't need to wear an eye patch then...You can control your eyes. They are usually blue, but yellow when you use them."
"I can also guide you to find those lost artifacts and teach you how to use them."
"Do you know what to do?"
"I've always known that."
Hitzfeld stood up seriously and bowed to her.
"Then please give me your guidance in the next period of time."
"Ms. Yusirion."
"No, Master."
Chapter 6 Methods
Hitzfeld planned to give himself at least three days of vacation, during which time he would receive instruction from Ms. Yusilian and lay a foundation for accepting a completely new knowledge system.
She was not in a hurry for the Secret Keeper Ceremony. Although there were risks, she did not believe that after the Yinsel incident, the Tree People could still be so... quiet as usual. The Wheel of Fortune actually had some hidden power that had not been revealed, so she couldn't always be asked to worry about it.
So she lived a fairly regular life these past few days, going to bed normally at night, waking up normally in the morning, and using all her free time to study in her room - it would have been perfect if Ms. Yusilian hadn't urged her to drink milk.
"You should drink more milk, little Annie." These were the words of the lady. "You see, your body has been draining energy from this eye. Now that the natural orb is gone, you need to eat more to replenish the energy consumed."
"But didn't you say you would teach me how to truly control this eye?" Hitzfeld still had aversion to milk and would not drink it if he could avoid it. "If I learn to control it to absorb energy, I won't have to rush to replenish it."
"Wrong!" the lady yelled, "Find out - what is the reason why this thing absorbs energy? You don't think it's selfish and wants to suck you dry, do you?"
"Is not it?"
"No - that's just its instinct. Just like a lamp, it won't light up if you don't add oil and charge it. If you cut off the nutritional supply, it will probably only have the most basic function of an eye left."
"Seeing things... and I'm afraid that ability would be very poor."
"You're not that stupid. It seems my teaching progress can be easier than you think."
The conversation reminded Hitzfeld of his experience when he first came to this world.
That is, the nights when she had just woken up at 12 Flo Street and was picked up by the lady, she had tested the vision of her left eye during her first outing and found that it was not very good... The reason might be that it lacked nutrition and could not even guarantee the most basic functions.
However, Ms. Yusilian still thought she was too simple to trick her into drinking milk just based on this. Hitzfeld would rather spend more time making cheese and then make it into various pies and fried rice to eat than drink milk, which made the lady very angry.
She thought the girl was wasting talent. You know, there weren't that many people who could bear both the Sun's True Blood and the Evil Eye at the same time. It was not enough to describe it as one in tens of millions or hundreds of millions. It didn't even have anything to do with personal talent. Whether it could be done depended on luck and whether one would die during the first fusion.
But the more she said this, the more Hitzfeld thought about the tragedy that happened at Hitzfeld Manor.
It was even more impossible for her to fulfill people's wishes just because of this. Her firm attitude made Ms. Yusilian see her stubborn side for the first time. Considering that she ate cheese anyway, Blood Crow decided not to mention it.
The teaching progress was very fast and it opened Hitzfeld's eyes right from the start.
"What you call mythical particles are actually called 'magic energy particles'." Crow held a piece of chalk in his mouth and wrote a few lines of formulas on the blackboard. "And controlling 'magic energy particles' requires telekinesis and mathematics... and some insignificant imagination."
"Generally speaking, we would record those successful formulas, take in the particles in the air and arrange them into shape according to the formula model, and then a spell would be cast."
"Is this the reason why people in previous eras were able to move mountains and fill the sea?" Hitzfeld asked blankly.
Magic energy particles... Although it is different from what I imagined, this is magic, right? It is real magic...
"Moving mountains and filling the sea is not something that mortals can do easily." Crow shook his head. "People who can cast spells in this way are called magic controllers. Their power comes directly from the knowledge they have mastered. If their foundation is not stable, their ability will be unstable. Extreme cases may even be possessed by demons during their practice and their bodies may explode. And the moving mountains and filling the sea you mentioned requires a high-level controller to reach the minimum standard. At that time, there were not many high-level controllers in the world, probably less than 20."
"It means that there are very few strong people."
“No, no!” The crow head shook his head even more vigorously. “The fact that there are few high-level controllers does not mean that there are few strong ones… In fact, it is precisely because this road is so difficult that only those with talent and perseverance can achieve success, so many people will take the path of taking shortcuts.”
"This includes me." She stared at the girl with her bird eyes, "I didn't become a 'god' through the proper way. I took a shortcut."
"...Can I know what kind of shortcut this is?" Hitzfeld suppressed his inner throbbing, "Teacher?"
"Oh, there's nothing to hide." Ms. Yusilian didn't seem to care about the secret of becoming a god. "It was through a divine weapon, and it was an ancient divine weapon, one of the four... the magic spear from Moins. I ate that thing and made it a part of me."
"have eaten……?"
"You don't think I created the Blood King's lineage out of thin air, do you? One drop of blood cannot mutate a talent. I can do it because it is the knowledge from my original body. Yes - she was an expert in this field at that time! No one can compare with her in the field of mimicry and shapeshifting. Her understanding of blood is unmatched!"
That means specializing in one path to the extreme...
Hitzfeld felt awe in his heart, because the other party knew the existence of the goddess, but she still dared to say this, which meant that her abilities in these areas were even stronger than the goddess'.
After a detailed introduction on magic particles and magic formulas, Crow then taught her what promotion is, how to get promoted, and the different standards and differences between low-level controllers, mid-level controllers, and high-level controllers.
"It seems useless for you to learn these things." The middle crow suddenly said, "Because there are no more particles, there is no such thing - no matter how detailed you know, you can't take this path, although I feel you are very suitable."
The key is the eye.
There was a damn secret she dared not tell, the person who owned these eyes... Oh my God, there would be no one else in the world more suitable for this path than her.
"But despite this, you can still gain relevant experience from it." She continued, "For example, can these models and standards be applied to your current power and system? Are the standards you created and defined before scientific? These all need to be answered through comparison, and comparison requires references and examples. What I just mentioned are examples - they are of great value!"
"I understand." The girl nodded. In fact, even if the crow didn't say it, she was thinking the same thing in her heart.
The most difficult thing in the world is to establish standards, because it requires constant trial and error, and in most cases trial and error comes with a cost.
Just like how her soul and personality were nearly torn apart before, Yin Seer wanted to break free of the evil god's control and become a god herself, so she figured out a way to make herself neither human nor ghost.
This is even considered lucky, because they still know that they have flaws. More unlucky people lose themselves in the moment of doing it, either turning into monsters or exploding into meat paste.
Now that she can get another system as a reference out of thin air, she knows how precious this opportunity is.
Time passed so quickly while she was studying that she almost forgot to check on Ashley's progress in academic subjects.
After dinner, the class continued, and Hitzfeld's attention was a little scattered and not as focused as during the day.
"Take a break." Crow threw away the chalk. "Let's talk about something else... Understanding the magic formula is very difficult, not to mention that you don't have any particles to practice with. It's too torturous to just imagine it."
"There's one thing I don't understand, mentor."
"You said."
"Magic energy particles are such a powerful thing... As you said before, they are directly related to whether the Sun King can become a true god."
"That's it."
