August 7, 1026 of the New Calendar.
Kingdom of Inves, Green Forest City.
After going out for many days in a row, visiting clubs, department stores, dance halls, circuses, exhibition halls, high-end restaurants and other places, Aaron finally chose to rest at home.
In the study room.
He sat in front of the desk, his back straight, and "Sleepwalking" spread out in front of him.
"Actually, it can also be called "Essays on the Spiritual World" or something like that...and the further you go to the back, the more confusing the content becomes, like the ravings of a madman."
Aaron flipped through a few pages and soon reached the end of this mysterious book.
As we go to the end, it seems that the author's mental state is getting worse, and the pure white text looks more scrawled, and there are large areas of alteration.
Countless distorted punctuation and fonts are mixed together, bringing a sense of confusion of light and shadow. Just reading it may make people crazy and delirium.
"If it hadn't finally been of some use, I would have asked Miss Bai Ge to return the goods..."
He complained and jotted down the content he thought was more valuable.
【I saw... Him!】
[He is as big as a mountain, and his eyes are like the crimson moon. He is the master of corpses, a big snake, and a being worshiped by all ghouls. They are so eager for him and eager to be swallowed by him...]
[I have been marked by Him, and I will become a gluttonous feast for all the ghouls in the world... I should avoid February, because February is the season of ghouls...]
…
While Aaron was recording, he subconsciously began to review this text.
"Judging from the text, the author should describe an existence that is in charge of the month of February - the Lord of the Bones! Also known as the 'Orochi'! Is he the god worshiped by the ghouls?"
Aaron put down the pen, tapped the table with the back of his finger, then turned to the first page of "Sleepwalking" and saw that sentence.
[Three have passed away, one was swallowed by the serpent, one was burned by the corona of the sun, and one was deprived of the inalienable state...but the secret history will still be remembered]
"This Si Sui is quite strong. He can swallow up another hidden existence... He is from the path of 'red'? Uh... During the battle of the Fall of the Sun, I saw the [Mother Tree of Flesh and Blood] being split from it.
Open, a big snake grows out, he is the 'Lord of the Bones'? Which Si Sui did he swallow?"
"Since the fall of the sun, the battles between those beings have never ended..."
Aaron couldn't guess the existence of the one who was killed by the big snake and the corona. He could only see the last one, which seemed a bit familiar. It might be describing the "Scarlet Creator". After all, there are intelligent creatures in the dream world, which may have left behind murals of that battle.
and records and the like.
It is also possible that the sleepwalker walked directly into the time and space corridor and saw the battle recorded by the world!
"The latter is unlikely. In fact, it is not necessarily talking about the sun. Maybe there is an unlucky Si Sui behind, who was deprived by another guy to the point of inalienable..."
Aaron closed the book and had completely memorized the knowledge in it.
"It's worth £100 and may be sold later..."
After carefully putting away "Sleepwalker", Aaron picked up a slender cane beside the table.
It is about three feet long, made of holly wood, with a white crystal inlaid on the top.
Aaron stroked the white crystal, suddenly pressed a mechanism on the cane, and pulled out a long and narrow stabbing sword from the head of the cane!
This is a ‘staff sword’! Moreover, it is a weapon made by Aaron using his ‘Glory One’ ability.
Its blade came from Clark Das, and it was the same sword that Aaron used when exploring Benjamin's house before. It is said to be an antique, and it was Clark's return gift to Aaron.
Considering the need for close combat and the lack of a self-defense weapon when he was unable to use a revolver, Aaron made such a cane out of holly wood.
In this era, it was normal for gentlemen to travel with canes, but it would be strange to carry swords - unless it was a grand celebration of nobles.
Aaron held the sword in his hand, danced the sword flower casually, and made a few sword movements. He couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction: "I used to be a useless craftsman, but I didn't expect that after becoming the 'Glory One', I would become a master of craftsmanship.
"
Boom!
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Aaron put the sword blade into the holly wood stick painted with a layer of black lacquer, and his voice became louder: "Come in!"
Sylvia pushed the door open and bowed: "There is a gentleman outside the door, claiming to be Mr. William Mark's housekeeper. He would like to invite you to attend tomorrow's banquet..."
"I see."
Aaron stood up and walked to the living room downstairs, where he saw an elegant old man in a black tuxedo standing and waiting.
Seeing him walking into the living room, he immediately bowed: "Dear Mr. Aaron Uggs, on behalf of my master, I invite you to attend the banquet at 8 o'clock tomorrow night."
"Thanks to the invitation, I will definitely be there."
Aaron smiled, took the gilded invitation, and sighed inwardly.
Interactions in upper class society are indeed very cautious and slow.
It seems that after such a long period of observation, my neighbors have finally determined that this guy who often hangs out in high-end restaurants, theaters, and luxury stores is not a liar, at least he is also the son of a rich man, so they started to invite?
If you go by yourself this time and perform perfectly, you may be able to slowly integrate into this circle.
Thinking of this, Aaron asked Sylvia to send the housekeeper away. When the maid came in, he asked: "What kind of person is this Mr. William Mark?"
As a maid, Sylvia should have her own channel, which is the maids of other families on the block.
"I heard that Mr. William Mark is the director of a company. His family employs a housekeeper, seven servants, a dedicated chef, and a groom..."
Sylvia's face was full of envy.
Perhaps, that is the person she dreams of marrying.
Then, her expression became solemn and she reminded: "Master, this is your first visit. The choice of gift is very important. It should not be too cheap or too expensive, making you feel like a nouveau riche."
"In addition, if you want to hold a banquet at home, which is almost inevitable after a few exchanges, you will have to hire a housekeeper and more maids... and even special etiquette teachers and dance teachers.
…”
Although she was a little worried and reluctant, Sylvia still gave pertinent advice.
'She is worried and uneasy...'
Aaron accurately read this emotion and smiled and said: "Sylvia, there is no future as a maid. Have you ever thought about changing your job to being a housekeeper?"
"ah?"
Sylvia was startled and immediately shook her head: "I can't do it. I don't have that kind of knowledge and accumulation. A good housekeeper is the master's business card. I will embarrass the young master."
"So it's time for you to work hard and go to grammar night school and housekeeping training class..."
