I Might As Well Quit This Lousy Wizard Profession

Chapter 125 - 125 117 Heart-to-Heart Skewer Fragrance Witchcraft

?Chapter 125: 117 Heart-to-Heart Skewer Fragrance Witchcraft Chapter 125: 117 Heart-to-Heart Skewer Fragrance Witchcraft Lin An didn’t touch any other items in Mr. Liu’s house, which was certainly unnecessary, but he just had that kind of persistence.

He only took away the transcendent items hidden in the cellar, and didn’t touch anything else.

Guided by the innate witchcraft ‘Sky Drifter Eyes,’ Lin An drove Mr. Liu’s car to a roadside without surveillance cameras, abandoned it there, and returned home with the items.

Aside from the half a million in cash, a few transcendent items particularly piqued Lin An’s interest.

With that thought, he suddenly pulled open the wardrobe and looked at the three-legged wooden toad stuffed in the corner under the blanket, thoughtfully watching its bouncing head on the bed.

“Hmm, I remember Chen Xinmi’s stone treasure has the effect of attracting wealth?”

The ugly head, bored, flung the blood from its long hair and had already forgotten the previous fear, answering habitually, “How would I know.”

Swoosh~

However, as more transcendent items began accumulating at home, Lin An contemplated ways to properly store these items.

The first two were items kept in the car.

An electric water gun-like sleeve crossbow, inside which was stored a vial of liquid.

A scale with hollowed-out crystal stones as weights, along with some paper strips and a pen. One of the paper strips had Mr. Liu’s name written on it.

Turning it over, it was written on the base—”All life is equal, life for life. Life has weight, those with high aspirations live. —Life Gambit Curse Slaughter Scale.”

Additionally, there were three items in Mr. Liu’s house.

The first was the same kind of liquid, stored in something resembling a pepper spray dispenser, this time with a few words printed on the bottle—”Desire Demon’s Tears” ignite the desires within.

The second one was familiar to Lin An; he had previously used Mr. Liu’s liquid. Body Repair Spiritual Liquid, he had regained his healthy eyes thanks to this potion, which allowed him to switch between his ‘Spirit Eye’ and his regular vision. (66)

The last one was, in Lin An’s opinion, the biggest gain from this occasion.

A notebook.

Lin An recognized the handwriting inside as Mr. Liu’s.

—Lu Tingyu once mentioned an interesting topic to me, saying that the so-called Sorcerer’s Bloodline is actually a state of human soul damage. This damage allows sorcerers to be more sensitive to the existence of the Spirit Realm and more susceptible to the influence of the Spirit World Aura.

—In his speculation, the Spirit Realm may be a ‘Collective Consciousness Ocean,’ which actually resides deep within the soul of every sentient being.

—As for why the apprenticeship at the Witch Hunter Knight’s furnace has such a high failure rate, it’s due to the inability to finely adjust one’s own mental state. (The most reliable way to become a Witch-hunting Knight now is to inherit someone else’s fortuitously forged Furnace Core.)

—Once when he was drunk, he told me there should be a state where the mind is pure and transparent but stubbornly fixated on something; such a psychological state could present a common person with something akin to a Sorcerer’s Bloodline.

—Such people can also be awakened into sorcerers through ‘ritual magic.’ Moreover, the offspring they conceive after being invaded by Spiritual Energy will naturally inherit this so-called ‘Sorcerer’s Bloodline.’

—Damn it!!! Breathing skill for fine-tuning mental states, this introductory method for Witch Hunter Knights, I just can’t do it, the boss mocked me for not having the right talent.

—Blast it, I even utilized hypnotism to immerse myself in a mental state of fixation on one thing, still to no avail. After several attempts, even Chen Xinmi grew weary of it.

—Lu Tingyu’s belief that the Spirit Realm lies deep within everyone’s heart and is a Collective Consciousness Ocean is because of the existence of ‘Furnace.’

—A Witch Hunter Knight’s mind becomes warped to a bizarre state, combining with ‘filtered and processed’ Spiritual Energy to create an even stranger state. Such individual twisted minds come together to form a dimension that is different from both the real world and the Spirit Realm.

—It is said that the existence of the ‘Furnace’ world is due to the multitude of Witch Hunter Knights turned into statues, their empty and desolate hearts sustaining this dimension.

—The reason witches don’t have something like ‘Furnace’ is that the degree of their mental distortion perfectly matches the frequency of the Spirit Realm, which is why they can easily enter the Spirit Realm.

—Witch Hunter Knights can use ‘Furnace’ to create their own treasure storage spaces distinct from the real dimension, but witches can’t use the ‘Spirit Realm’ to create a storage space.

—Therefore, if a group of sorcerers suddenly comes up with something like ‘Space Rings,’ one should be vigilant since they might have developed a terrifying creature capable of shuttling to and from the Spirit Realm.

—It is very difficult for Witch Hunter Knights to have their own ‘private storage spaces’ because ‘Furnace’ is shared, any Witch Hunter Knight might breach the Furnace residence of others to steal or rob.

—(On a separate page, Mr. Liu had drawn many pentagrams, marking it as highly important.)

—Lu Tingyu brought up his ‘self-sufficient Chive garden furnace plan.’ In it, he speculated that if a sorcerer became a Witch-hunting Knight and used ‘Heart-to-Heart Skewer Fragrance Witchcraft’ during the furnace cultivation, one could convert a Stone Treasure into a personal storage space.

—(1) ‘Heart-to-Heart Skewer Fragrance Witchcraft,’ what exactly is this witchcraft??? I’ve been in the Tree Hole Organization for so many years and have not been able to find any information on this witchcraft!

—(2) Lu Tingyu said Witch Hunter Knights had a method to melt Stone Treasure, turning it into an appendage that can merge with and separate from one’s body, (similar to antlers), what is that method???

—How wonderful it would be if I could become a sorcerer and then train to become a Witch-hunting Knight…

…

Mr. Liu’s handwriting was very messy, filled with a lot of emotional language. The content above was something Lin An managed to sort out with difficulty.

This scant content occupied all the pages of the official notebook.

“Heart-to-Heart Skewer Fragrance Witchcraft?”

Lin An had a strange expression on his face.

What was this bizarre thing all about?

He decided to ask Chen Xinmi about it, though he guessed there probably wouldn’t be an answer; otherwise, Mr. Liu wouldn’t have been unaware of it.

Of course, it was also possible that Mr. Liu didn’t know about it at the time of writing these contents, but found out later, so Lin An was also prepared to ask Mr. Liu’s Spiritual Grey Wolf again.

Even more, Lin An had a thought.

Lu Tingyu must have known about this witchcraft and its specific contents; otherwise, he wouldn’t have come up with such an idea.

That meant either the young boss knew about it, or the Witch Hunter Knights had this witchcraft in their possession.

This witchcraft that comes with its own space or purgatorial interlayer truly excited him.

But…

It’s something that can only be done during the apprentice phase of cultivating the Furnace…

It seemed he didn’t have much time left.

Stuffing all these items into a corner of the wardrobe and then covering them with the quilt that bore the ‘Little Blanket Over, Nobody to Love’ witchcraft, Lin An could only pray inwardly that no thieves or anything of the sort would come rummaging through his home.

Especially since he was about to go on a business trip with the young boss.

It wasn’t like he could take all these things with him; all he could do was look helplessly at the items lying there in his house.

“Imagine, if I learn this, and then I put this witchcraft quilt into the space, would I be able to hide under it whenever I face danger, find a place to hide, cover up, and avoid being hunted down?”

Lin An attempted to seek answers from that ghastly head.

But the head only shook its head, splattering Lin An’s face with blood, humming a weird tune, “Don’t eat me… Don’t eat me…” with a twisted expression.

“Heh~”

“What use are you!”

Lin An was somewhat resigned.

He packed his luggage, went to bed, and got up early the next day to meet with the young boss at the company.

The two decided to take the green-skinned train towards the due south of the Empire, a place that was not only a tourist destination but also rumored to be the site of a game development company committed to the same art style.

While patiently waiting for the departure time, they squatted outside the train station, with the young boss squatting on the ground, clutching a cigarette, fluently explaining how he would stealthily learn the skills of others, and how he would get the art project director to spill details…

Lin An sat helplessly on a stone bench nearby, wanting to go inside for the air conditioning but unable to, as the young boss wanted to smoke.

Just then, a fragrant breeze passed by, and a pair of leather pants worn with high heels appeared in his field of view, standing with legs astride. Looking up, he saw a spicy-looking girl with an air of wildness all over her.

Chewing gum, she tugged at the sunglasses on her face, looking at Lin An and the young boss with interest.

“Has Lu Jiao dwindled to this extent? Two little sorcerers dare to show up in public like this?”

As she spoke, her eye sockets suddenly became huge, big enough to match the size of an ordinary bowl, with blood-red eyeballs within, like the eyes of a rabbit.

“!!!”

In an instant, Lin An activated ‘Sky-Scanning Eyes’ and suddenly realized they were surrounded without knowing when it had happened.

A person stood in each corner behind and to their sides.

A long-haired, disheveled youth carrying a guitar case, and an old man with a white beard wearing a three-piece suit and carrying a cane in the scorching heat.

The eyes of these two people, likewise, turned from normal human to huge rabbit eyes in an instant.

The girl’s gaze was mocking, the disheveled youth’s was numb, and the old man’s was ice-cold.

What the hell is this…

“Southern Empire Witch Hunter’s Alliance?”

Had fleeing for life turned into delivering themselves to the doorstep?

A red light surged beneath the feet of the trio, quickly enveloping Lin An and the young boss.
