BXBX NOVEL Chapter 540 Delicious Elven Cuisine
But now… she had truly fallen into depravity and joined the Demon Cult of Beelzebub. Not only just a mere cult member, but one with great authority, capable of ordering others to give away their lives just so they can take away the life of a girl they have nothing to do with to realize her dreams.
"The King probably already know she\'s alive." I said. "He doesn\'t even know her though, so I don\'t know why he would select Erika as the queen specifically. Perhaps Sathan is going for the most simplest of methods, kill every children in the family until her own are the last to stand. Without anywhere to choose from, the King will be forced to pick her child at the end."
"Yeah… I had thought about it. I never really thought about it aside from the sorrow I felt but… my other siblings, over half of them had lost their children in "accidents"…" Sighed Cattalina. "She probably went as far as trying to eliminate my husband\'s family so there wouldn\'t be any loose ends."
"What… can we do now?" Wondered Erika.
"No, you don\'t have to worry about these things, nor Blake." Cattalina said. "I\'ll deal with Sathan myself. If she\'s really this important, I cannot charge at her directly. I\'ll seek aid from my other siblings, and also find more clues I can use to tell father about her. Meanwhile, I\'ll report the cultist issue to the teachers. Could it be possible if you let me have their corpses, Blake?"
Ah… damn it. Well, I did took some blood off them and also got their spirit orbs but still… I wanted their bodies for my own alchemy. What a pain… But I guess she needs some proof.
"Sure, you should also show the items they carried with themselves." I said. "Here."
I gave her one of the Demon Summon Stones. They had ranks depending in their color. The small red one was a low rank demon summon, it could summon around a dozen Imps, the weakest of demons, so it wasn\'t that threatening of an item even if they broke loose in the academy by accident.
The purple one, however, has a dozen Blue Onis, so it is way more dangerous. If they let go of them all in the middle of the streets, they would had definitely killed some people before getting slain.
pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ "Alright, thanks… [Dream Storage]" Cattalina waved her hands, as she quickly absorbed the cultists bodies using her Magic.
FLUOSH!
"With this I\'ll have enough proof. [Dream Storage] is a Skill that utilizes my Dream Magic proficiency to create a small Dream Realm, a pocket dimension of its own where I can store things." Said Cattalina. "It\'s not as unlimited as your Inventory Skill though, Blake."
"I see, interesting." I nodded. I already knew about a similar spell, but this being a skill made it way better than the spell itself.
Erika\'s mother was incredibly proficient at illusion and dream magic, so she was certainly very good at using this element of dreams. However, she had yet to fully attain her maximum potential, one of the things people in this world hasn\'t developed is a magic circle within their souls, physiques, and psyches.
Seems like they rely on Skills to replace such things, even though these things can be learned by anybody, unlike Skills, and can make anybody grow strong enough if they start using and cultivating them from a young age. All my childhood friends have developed their own Physiques, Psyches, and Magic Circles I helped them get, even Erika.
Maybe if Alberta and Elfriedden behave, I\'ll let them have this power as well. And perhaps even Erika\'s mother would do good with it, after all I also gave this power to all my family. The usage of Ki is essential to continue growing stronger past one\'s limits.
"For now, however, I believe I\'ve made everyone wait too long. How about I make dinner for everyone?" Cattalina sighed, quickly trying to cheer up the gloomy faces of my friends. Alberta and Elfriedden were not here either, left outside alongside Evelyn.
"Sounds good to me!" Erika said. "What can you do, mama?"
"Tons of things! I have not lived my life without knowing many recipes. I will make you one of your father\'s favorite plates." Erika\'s mother said.
Like that, the mood finally calmed down, as we discussed several things regarding what we talked about with my friends before going down. Mostly about their concerns, although ultimately, we all came together with the decision to help as much as we can.
"If we ever meet those cultists again, tell me, Blake. I\'ll blow them away into pieces." Erdrich ruthlessly said. "I\'ll make them pay for what they did to my mother… I can relate a lot with Erika and her family now… Perhaps my mother also belonged to the Beelzebub Cult."
"I believe she did." I nodded. "And the Necromancer as well, it seems to be the most prevalent Cult in this area of the continent. There might be more, but I am unsure if they\'re this strong and widespread. If they\'re here then… There might be a big battle eventually."
"Hm, we need to work and get stronger until then." Chris said.
"Yeah, no working around it!" Eric nodded.
"I am with you guys, let\'s do our best to grow stronger. Once we finally enter the dungeons we might have some more fun too." Elizabeth said.
Like that, we enjoyed the rest of the day at home. Erika\'s father favorite meal resulted to be stew with fried rice with mushroom bits, it was exquisite. The recipe was apparently elven cuisine.
