Demon Lord Priest II

v3 Chapter 149: 3 sisters of the castle

The beautiful pink flag didn't exist for a long time, and soon it turned into a phantom and disappeared into the air, as if it had never appeared.

"It's strange." Ulysses could sense a special power from that flag, though not in any sense of danger.

But the most important thing now is this one. When he got it, Ulysses' heart trembled slightly, and he felt its extraordinary.

As the eldest lady said, this book is by no means ordinary, and Ulysses who is holding it now knows better than anyone else.

Very heavy, very heavy, as heavy as carrying countless historical vicissitudes.

It's very light, very light, as light as life can't bear, as if if you open it, some very important things will disappear.

This kind of feeling, Ulysses seems familiar, but also extremely strange. For him, who has always loved reading, he hesitated to open a book for the first time.

In the end, instead of opening the book in the gallery, he left the gallery with it. He needs to calmly think about what kind of secrets this book contains.

Just a few steps out of the gallery, Ulysses encountered a sudden attack.

"Hey!" Several medicine bottles shattered under his feet, followed by a large amount of colorful smoke.

A minute later, a sneaky figure in the woods next to the gallery walked quietly to the smoke that had not disappeared to inspect the result of his medicine attack.

In order to prevent herself from being recruited, she wore a big white mask and glasses, but the white ears and tail completely violated her identity. Except for the notorious third lady Palan, there is no other long tail in this castle. girl.

"Caught." For Ulysses, who already knew the third lady who was full of weird ideas, this was just a small farce. When the sneaky Palan thought he had swaggered to him, he grabbed her with one hand, no more difficult than catching a chick.

"What!" Palan looked at Ulysses, who was unharmed in the smoke, with a ghost-like expression. This was a big shake, and even ten elephants would faint in an instant. It was useless to this prince.

There is indeed a perfume that expels the curse on his body, but it is definitely not enough to fight against these medicines. This is a secret weapon she has developed recently, and the antidote is only in her hands.

"Oops, I've been tricked!" Palan's ears perked up, and then he looked around in a panic, as if three hundred axemen rushed over and chopped her down into such a tragic corpse.

However, of course there is no such thing here, Ulysses is simply ignoring all negative effects of the potion. Don't say it's just mere medicine, even drinking the black mud in the Dark Holy Grail is just as simple as plain water for him.

"Strange, isn't it a trap for the sisters?" Palan swayed in Ulysses' hands, his big eyes full of puzzled eyes.

She thought she would definitely be caught this time, and then be locked in a small dark room for two or three days. In fact, she was not afraid of the darkness in the small dark room, but it was too boring to not be able to do any experiments.

In this world, there are countless truths waiting for her!

"I said, do we have any grudges?" Ulysses really couldn't figure out why the third lady, who had only met once, attacked him, and he didn't have any treasures with him. Could it be that she hated her so much once he bumped into her.

"No, just for the future happiness of my sister, I plan to study your body." Palan honestly stated his purpose of ambushing Ulysses.

Of course, after the capture, she will do something like this and that to verify her great conjecture.

So far, the main subjects who have participated in her experiments are frogs, birds, rabbits, and mice. This time, she feels that she can change to more advanced subjects, such as princes, princes, princes and so on.

"You..." Ulysses shook Pallan's small body, but he didn't realize it when we first met. It turned out that this beautiful alchemist was really a fanatical researcher, and that Kind of a research-to-hot-headed madman.

Even though she has become so small, her essence does not seem to have changed in the slightest.

"Let go of me, if I don't let go, I will call someone." Palan struggled and struggled desperately in Ulysses' hands, but unfortunately it was meaningless.

"You have to promise me not to mess around." Ulysses said seriously.

"Who cares you to die! Help! The prince is going to mess up and bully me!" Palan made a face at Ulysses, and then shouted with all his strength.

Soon, a maid heard Palan's shout and ran over in panic.

For them, no matter how eccentric and mischievous the third young lady of their family is, she is the master they entrust to them, and they must not look at them when they are in danger.

However, when they saw Palan's current situation and the blushing expression in Ulysses' hands, they all stopped in unison.

"What are you looking at! Come and save me, don't you see that I'm being bullied!" Palan looked at his maids fiercely, and then struggled harder in Ulysses' hands.

The maids looked at each other, and then they all saw the ambiguous eyes in their companions.

This is really "bullying", being bullied by a handsome and dashing prince, and being bullied by a prince who is said to have come to this castle to marry one of the three sisters.

They shouldn't bother with such a thing, whether it's "bullying" or being "bullied", it's a secret affair between the eldest ladies and the prince.

Soon, the maids who came over consciously left the stage, and informed the sisters of the news here, making this a quiet place where no one would come to disturb it.

In fact, there are many maids who are envious of the "bullied" third young lady, and that is their greatest hope.

Oops, so I'm not going to be really bullied? Palan found that he had made a big miscalculation, and if Ulysses really planned to eat her at this time, she would really be called heaven and earth.

That can't be done. Even if the prince wins the elder sister, it is the elder sister who will suffer first, not her. Being eaten here is of no use to her plan to win the big museum.

I don't know if it was because of a guilty conscience, the more Palan looked at Ulysses, the more he felt that his eyes were wrong, it was full, and he was ready to put her here in this and that way regardless of everything.

"No, this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed before marriage." Palan gave Ulysses an angry punch, then flung his tail into the woods and escaped without a trace.

Of course, it was Ulysses who let her go on purpose, otherwise, no matter how she broke out, she wouldn't even try to escape Ulysses' grasp.

Ulysses sighed as Palan slipped away without a trace.

"Ding!" Another small pink flag was inserted beside Ulysses, and then unfolded shyly.

Here again, what is this? Ulysses took the flag this time, and found that it was just a phantom and didn't have any substance.

Just like when it first appeared, this time the flag quickly disappeared, leaving only a big mystery for Ulysses.

"I'm sorry, Palan has caused you trouble." Nanali's voice sounded in the air, and Ulysses looked up and saw the pair of small feet that were swaying gently.

"Actually, she's not bad, but she's too focused on her own field and doesn't understand other things, just like a child." Nanali apologized to Ulysses embarrassedly.

"It's nothing, I won't be angry with such a child." In the eyes of Ulysses, the current Palan is indeed a child regardless of body and mind.

And to gain the trust of children, it is difficult to say, easy to say. Children don't lie, they want what they want, and they don't like what they don't like.

So, just like what Palan said, as long as he gets the "Gallery" and opens all the memberships in it to her, she will be willing to fulfill her promise.

However, "marriage" is of course forgettable, it's just a kid's joke.

"You have a good heart. If you marry your sister, you should be able to make her happy." Nanali looked at Ulysses with soft eyes, obviously his attitude towards Palan won her approval.

"Wait, why does everyone think I'm going to marry one of the three of you?" Ulysses wanted to ask this question from the moment he entered the castle.

It's not that one or two people see him that way. Whether it's the maids of the castle, the outsiders, or the three sisters who are the owners of the castle, they all seem to regard this as a given fact.

"Aren't you here to find true love?" This time, Nanali looked at Ulysses suspiciously.

Shaye! Ulysses has the urge to pull out the abyss to convict and strike with all his strength. There is no doubt that this person is the culprit of this rumor.

"Actually, my elder sister is a very good person. You will naturally understand her goodness if you have more contact with her. Palan is still very childish and is not suitable to be your object, but if you are willing to wait, she will definitely grow up to be an outstanding person. Beautiful." Nanali kindly introduced her sister and sister to Ulysses, and no matter which Ulysses chose, she would send her heartfelt blessings.

"What about you?" Ulysses couldn't help but say this sentence.

"Huh, me?" Nanali didn't expect Ulysses to ask herself at all, she looked at Ulysses sleepily, and then looked at herself.

"I'm not suitable, because I don't like living in a castle, and I always sleep in the forest. People here say that I'm not my father's biological child, but a child picked up from the forest."

"So, I'm not the same as my older sister and younger sister, and I'm not suitable to be your spouse as a prince." These are Nanali's sincere words.

The eldest Miss Hugo is undoubtedly the heir to the castle recognized by all the people, and the third Miss, despite her eccentric interests, is indeed an outstanding alchemist and an unlimited scholar in the future.

She is the only one who has nothing to do with nobles, whether it's hobbies or things she likes to do.

In this world, there are many nobles who love to build museums, and there are also many nobles who love alchemy experiments, but like her, there are very few nobles who like to act alone and stay in the forest for several days.

"There is no such thing, Nanali is Nanali, you don't need to be someone else." For Ulysses, who knew Nanali's true identity, this was a matter of course.

Because from the beginning, Nanali was not a noble lady of human beings, but a free fairy.

"Is it...? This is the first time I heard someone say that to me, thank you." Nanali's face turned red quietly.

"What big sister gave you is very important, please protect it." After saying the last sentence, Nanali tapped the branches with her toes and quickly disappeared into the woods.

"As expected of a goblin." After Nanali's figure disappeared, Ulysses could no longer feel any of her breath. The nickname of the goblin family's son of the forest was obviously not nonsense.

"Ding!" The third pink flag was inserted beside Ulysses, and then quietly unfolded.

"Shaye, it's you." Looking at the flag that appeared for the third time, Ulysses shook his head, turned around and left as if he didn't see it.

…………

In his room, Ulysses was calm and focused on the book on his desk.

This book is the owner of the gallery—the one the eldest lady gave him, a mysterious book that gave him a familiar and unfamiliar feeling.

It had been in this state for half an hour, and Ulysses still couldn't decide whether to open it or not.

Because of the uncertainty, he didn't know what he would see and know when he opened this book, but he had a hunch that this would definitely change something.

The feeling of this change is even stronger than when I came to this world modified by Saya.

What exactly is inside? Ulysses has a lot of guesswork.

As soon as you open it, you will encounter the curse of death? This is no problem for him, all forms of curses and curses are invalid for him with the physique of the Demon King, this has been a theorem that has been proven many times.

As soon as he opened it, a demon would come out, yòò he signed the contract, and then watched him go to death step by step while biting the apple. This is a bit dangerous, but for him as the Demon King, there is no need to be afraid at all, it's a big fight.

There is an angel inside, and as soon as he opens it, he can make a wish and let this angel accompany him all his life. This is totally a reward, how could anyone refuse.

Once opened, there will be a door to another world, where he will become the savior and go on an earth-shattering adventure in that world...

No matter how many times he guessed, Ulysses still couldn't find the answer.

This book seems to represent some unusual futures, but before he opened this book, these futures did not exist.

However, as soon as this book is opened, something will be completely changed, vague results will be confirmed, only conjectured results will be confirmed, the state of chaos will no longer exist, and results will be born.

"Still... open..." Ulysses finally made a decision, not only because it was a commission from the master of the gallery, but also because of his own curiosity about this book.

Although the saying goes that curiosity will kill the cat, curiosity is also the driving force of human progress. Ulysses didn't feel the power to threaten him from this book, so he didn't need to be afraid of being attacked.

Then, it was opened by Ulysses. Since the text on the page was already incomplete, Ulysses didn’t know the name of this book.

Until he opened, opened this mysterious box.

Then, he found out that he had actually read this book.

The book, titled "How to Bring a Cat to Life in a Box," tells the story of an unfortunate cat.

This is the story of the cat, the story of a chosen cat.

The cat itself doesn't matter, what matters is the person who chooses it, and the person who wants to see the cat's results. To find out what some magic does, they drop the cat into a box full of traps.

Then, opening the box, they saw the dead cat because the experiment had failed.

Everything about this experiment was written into this book, which described this unsuccessful experiment in simple-looking words.

However, they were wrong, Ulysses knew that the cat in the box could come to life.

That experiment failed because the person conducting the experiment simply could not understand the relationship between language and cognition, behavior and phenomena, mind and body.

As long as the facts are always remembered and missed, the lives that have existed will not simply disappear. Even if the spirit has been turned into pieces and the body no longer exists, as long as someone remembers it, then it is not a real death.

The one who is forgotten by all is the real death. The reason why the cat couldn't come back was just because no one cared about the cat, and when it died, it was forgotten by everyone.

And before it dies, the fact has a chance to survive, but everyone thinks that it can't survive, there is no chance of surviving, and the fact of its death is pronounced before it dies, so Miracles have no chance of happening.

How can people who never believe in miracles create miracles?

The cat in the box actually had a chance to create a miracle and come back from death, but no one believed that such a thing would happen, and they all believed that it would have no other results than death.

However, there is no "absolute" thing in this world, and everything contains infinite possibilities.

The future, where everything is determined, is the most boring. It is better to treat the whole world as a game, a game full of surprises. That would be fun.

This is everything at this time, it is not real, it represents not giving up everything, but really liking everything, this is a world with infinite possibilities and infinite future.

So, see? This beautiful. Happy. Can't see the future world?

Rises nodded and answered involuntarily.

That's fine, then live freely and happily in this world, no matter what it looks like, no matter how much trouble it will cause, it's better than a world where everything is planned out and looks perfect.

A world full of surprises and unknowns is the best world.

Hello World.

Hello. Another me. Remember our common name - Mephistopheles.

………….

Ulysses shuddered suddenly, and woke up from a dream-like state. He vaguely remembered that he saw a certain truth, but he couldn't remember what it was.

Is that an important thing? Ulysses asked himself this, but had a strange feeling to tell himself that it was important, but not very important.

That's what he needs to know, but it doesn't matter if he doesn't know.

That's precious, but it's really something to give up.

It's good to remember, but it doesn't matter if you don't.

Opposites and chaos feel like light and dark clashing, but Ulysses is not affected because he has been in the gap between light and dark from the beginning,

Ambiguous gray, neither biased towards light nor darkness, this is the color he represents.

"Creator, what happened just now?" Lapis turned into a golden nl

Appeared by Ulysses' hand, looking at him with worried eyes.

Ulysses probably didn't know that. Just now, the starry sky world in his heart suddenly expanded tenfold.

It was as if those stars had been blocked by a grey curtain before. Then all of a sudden those gray curtains disappeared without a trace, revealing them that had never been seen.

"It's nothing, this book is very interesting." Ulysses smiled and showed Lapis the book that brought him changes.

"What does this book say?"

It's a cat, and a world story.

. . . . . . . . .

The next day, Ulysses came to the eldest lady with the translated "How to Make the Cat in the Box Come Alive". Since it was the second time to read it, he could say that he completely remembered the contents of this book. down.

Although there was no material or technique written about that magic experiment, Ulysses even pushed out the failed resurrection magic technique, which even he thought was a miracle.

Likewise, after Hugo saw the resurrection magic formula. He also showed an incredible expression. She looked at Ulysses in disbelief, as if she had known him for the first time.

If. Ulysses introduced Elmay's name from that notebook, so that Hugo felt that his knowledge was not bad; then the appearance of this magic formula completely broke Hugo's entire impression of him. .

You must know that this failed magic formula is one of the highest secrets of ancient magic, and it is related to human beings' exploration of the original. Even Hugo's gallery does not have its complete drawings, only some incomplete materials.

However, Ulysses, relying on the incomplete book "How to Bring the Cat in the Box Alive", actually reversed the most difficult magic formula. The calculation of the fireball technique, all the way to the strongest forbidden spell of the fire element.

Does such a person really exist? Hugo never believed before seeing Ulysses, but the facts gave her the best proof that such a person really exists.

She is smarter than the owner of the gallery, and someone who can accomplish impossible miracles with a clear mind is right in front of her right now. This complete information on Resurrection. is the best proof.

"I apologize for the rudeness before, Prince, you are a real scholar." Hugo took the initiative to extend his hand to Ulysses, expressing his kindness.

It is precisely because he is the owner of the gallery and the owner of countless magic guides that Hugo understands how incredible what Ulysses has done, a realm that even he has not reached.

It had nothing to do with power, it was the victory of knowledge, which convinced her to lose, and the last heart of making things difficult has vanished. In its place is genuine admiration.

Ulysses used his power to gain her approval. Now, in her eyes, Ulysses is no longer a scumbag for the three sisters to study in this castle, but a real &226; who has an extremely deep understanding of ancient Xu magic and resurrection. Master of Research.

Without knowledge of these two aspects, it is absolutely impossible to translate this incomplete book so perfectly, and even deduce magic formulas that do not exist in it.

Ding! Another small pink flag appeared beside Ulysses, but this time both sides appeared together, and then unfolded cheerfully.

It seems that only Ulysses can see this strange phenomenon, and Miss Hugo, who is close at hand, has no reaction at all.

"There's no such thing, I still have a lot to learn." This time it was Ulysses' turn to be embarrassed.

Because he had read this book a long time ago, he could easily translate it. As for the final magic formula, it was just the result of his brainstorming, and he felt that it might be completely wrong.

"Knowledge has no limit. People are always learning in their life. Today I also learned a lot." Hugo admired Ulysses' modesty and admitted his own shortcomings.

Just because of that inexplicable rumor, she looked down on Ulysses who came to study here in two years, because she was too self-righteous. She was already sure that the prince in front of her was a real scholar, not some **** who came to win over their three sisters.

Rumors stop at the wise, and she will no longer be deceived by such ridiculous rumors.

For true scholars, as for those old craftsmen who have spent their entire lives making dolls, Hugo is a heartfelt respect. Although Ulysses looked about the same age as her, the academic level could not deceive people, and he was qualified to be entertained by him in his large gallery.

Not the identity that was recommended, but the identity that she really recognized. To this end, she gave Ulysses the key to the gallery, which means that he can freely come here to study research regardless of what he thinks.

Next, Hugo and Ulysses had a pretty good time, most of which was Hugo introducing Ulysses to the gallery's collection.

The whole gallery is not randomly placed, but according to very strict rules, from different eras to different research disciplines, each rack is a piece of history, a legend.

All the collections here are high-quality products, and the shoddy ones are only used in the warehouse to eat ashes. Only those books that are truly recognized by the museum and represent human history and wisdom will be put on the shelves and read by those who have come to the museum. .

With the introduction of Hugo. Ulysses felt more and more the mystery of this huge gallery, and he found that he still underestimated this gallery.

The collections here are far beyond his imagination in terms of quantity and quality, and they are all-encompassing and graceful.

The whole gallery is built on the ground with two floors, but there are three floors below the ground. Among them, the books collected on the last floor are all magic guides with real magical power, and there are many curses in Ulysses' imagination. Dark, powerful magic wizard of the summoning type.

Without adequate preparation, these are notoriously dangerous as soon as they are opened. But these were quiet in Hugo's hands, seemingly acknowledging that his, as director of the gallery, had the power to open them up.

"?" When introducing his treasures to Ulysses, Hugo suddenly stopped and looked at the corner of the shelf with some headaches.

On the right side of the second row, a copy was obviously missing, but Hugo was in no hurry to take it out and read it recently.

"What's wrong?" Ulysses was not familiar with these placement rules. So I can't see where one is missing.

"Stolen." When he said this. Hugo looked a little helpless.

"What?" Ulysses looked at the rack in surprise. Through Hugo's introduction, he knew the preciousness of these books.

without any exaggeration. Any of the books at the bottom are worth a fortune, even a summer vacation, and a shelf can even buy a country.

In fact, these are basically, no matter which one is lost, it is a big deal.

Probably. . . . .

Is it. . . . .

Palan! The two of them said the name of the biggest suspect at the same time.

There is no doubt that it is not surprising that Palan would do such a thing because of his undisguised malicious intentions towards the gallery.

Strange, how did she sneak in here, I have a high-level magic ng, did she invent some weird medicine. "Hugo first checked the defenses of the underground gallery and found no damage and no record of any intruders.

This means that the intruder unknowingly stole the precious magic guide. If Hugo hadn't brought Ulysses to see his precious collection on a whim today, she might not have been able to find out about it in a few days. .

"Anything else missing?" Ulysses even reminded Hugo not to forget to check other places.

Yes, let me see. Hugo hurriedly inspected the underground vault for a full range of inspections, and then found three magic guides that had nowhere to go.

This is not a joke. These magic guides are all unique shares. If any one is lost, Hugo will be distressed to death, not to mention three lost at once.

"Palan!" Hugo was really angry, she had known for a long time that her sister was greedy for Tuguan, but she didn't expect to steal it this time.

"Wait, I'll find you right away." Hugo stood in the middle of the large gallery and activated her unique search magic.

All the magic guides in the gallery have the magic mark left by her, as long as this magic is activated, I can go where I go. She was going to arrest Palan and put her in a small dark room for a week.

The red magic circle lights up under Hugo's feet, and then spreads throughout the castle. No matter where it is hidden, this magic circle can be found.

However, the result shocked Hugo. Not anywhere in the castle, even if the search distance of the magic circle was increased ten times, there was no sense.

There are two possibilities, one is that the three magic guides are no longer around the castle and the castle; the other is that they are in a certain state of absolute isolation and cannot be detected by the magic circle.

No matter which one it is, it is bad news for Hugo, the owner of the gallery.

"If Palan Rugao is yours, I really won't show mercy this time.

After the continuous search for the magician was defeated, Hugo's Biao Qian was very heavy, and it was the eyes that really wanted to kill.

"Wait a minute, it can't be said that Palan did it, maybe someone else intervened." Ulysses even organized Hugo's out-of-control

Although Palan is the undisputed first suspect, this is all speculation for now, and there are other possibilities.

"Huh..." Hugo slowly calmed down from the state of being out of control. After thinking about it for a while, he also felt a little strange. ~ "It should be very difficult for the idiot to break through the barrier here. Her potion is useless to my magic. Is there a comrade?"

"Someone else came to the castle and stole mine..." Hugo cast his suspicious eyes on Ulysses, and the only people who have been able to invade this gallery recently in the standing stock seems to be the prince in front of him.

But she quickly dismissed that possibility. Because Ulysses has already proved himself with his knowledge and character, he does not need to use such troublesome means to steal.

Being able to write that kind of resurrection skill has surpassed the author of most of the magic guides here~lightnovelpub.net~ is also one of the important reasons why Hugo readily gave the key to Ulysses.

"Prince, can you please help me to find out who the thief is? If you find it, please notify me as soon as possible." Hugo sincerely asked Ulysses, for her, to discover this kind of theft in front of her The case was his biggest mistake as the director of the gallery.

"Well, I'll help." Ulysses had some vague conjectures, but he wasn't sure. Just like the cat in the box, the cat's life or death could not be determined without opening the box.

"Thank you." Hugo left in a hurry, she was going to use all the strength she had led him to thoroughly explore the castle and its surroundings. No matter where the three books were hidden, she vowed to find them back.

On the other hand, Ulysses stayed in the library, seemingly casually picking up a book of precious magic guides, and after reading almost all the magic guides on the shelf, he left the underground library.

Before closing the door again, he stopped for a while, looked at a corner of the basement with meaningful eyes, and then slowly walked away. To be continued
