Chapter 411 Phil's Birthday?

As Celia was leaving the temple and contemplating whether to return, she suddenly received a call from Phil.

"Celia, are you in Leites City?"

"I'm here," Celia asked. "What's wrong?"

"I've run into some trouble and I'd like you to help me..."

"What's the matter? Tell me."

"It's hard to explain in the bracelet, so I'll tell you in person: Where are you?"

“I just came out of the temple, I’m outside the temple.”

"Wait for me, I'll be right there!"

Phil spoke in a hurry and abruptly ended the call.

Celia tilted her head in thought, wondering what problem Phil had encountered, so she could only wait where she was.

A moment later, Phil, dressed in a white dress, rushed over, panting. When she saw Celia, her eyes lit up. "Great, Celia, you're still here!"

Celia supported her, speechless, and said, "Slow down, what's the rush? I'm not going to run away."

Phil said, "I want you to come with me somewhere."

"Is it a cult stronghold?" Celia asked, while scrutinizing Phil's attire. It wasn't a portable sorcerer's robe, but rather a formal suit for some grand ceremony.

Ok?
Dress?

An idea popped into Celia's mind.

No way?
Phil quickly replied, "No, it's not a dangerous place. I've just run into a little trouble and I'd like you to help me resolve it."

Celia's expression was strange. "What trouble can't you just say directly? Why are you being so mysterious?"

"Uh, just, just..."

Phil stammered, unable to utter a single word.

Celia couldn't help but take a step back: "Is this a banquet?"

Phil paused for a moment, then asked in surprise, "You knew?"

Celia was speechless: "I just came out of the temple. Bishop Holder was just saying that the city lord of Leites, Duke Pharos, wanted to invite me to a banquet or something, saying he had a friend there. I declined, and then you showed up, all mysteriously. Even a fool could guess what was going on."

Phil lowered his head shyly. "Um, can I go, Celia..."

Celia asked, "Did you call Benovia and the others?"

Phil nodded: "It called."

Celia breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, let's go."

Phil asked in confusion, "Do we need to call someone else to go?"

Celia nodded: "Of course, don't call anyone else, just me, I'm scared."

"What are you afraid of?" Phil blinked.

Of course, I'm afraid you'll become like Doris.

Celia muttered to herself.

If everyone is invited, then it's not considered a special invitation.

When everyone sits at the same table, it won't be awkward.

Just as Celia was about to go with Phil, Ross's voice echoed in her mind: "It's Phil's birthday today. Are you going empty-handed?"

"what?!"

Celia paused, then turned to Phil and said, "Phil, you go first. I forgot something, I'll go back and get it."

Without waiting for Phil to reply, he hurriedly left.

Once they were out of the way, Celia patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank goodness, it would have been bad if I had gone empty-handed."

Ross chuckled, "What are you planning to give as a gift?"

"do not know."

Celia frowned in thought.

For her birthday last time, Phil gave her a Pure Heart, which symbolizes the most beautiful thing.

This time, should we also send a pure heart?
Obviously not. Celia pondered for a long time, still unable to think of what to give.

Ross said, "Give her the purification crystal."

"What is a purification crystal?" Celia asked curiously.

“A crystal carved from high-grade magic crystal can purify the demonic energy in the body and absorb divine power. She needs this most right now.”

"But I don't know how to carve..."

"I can."

"Uh……"

"Go to the Sorcerer's Guild and rent a room."

"it is good."

Celia quickly took care of it; her status as a third-tier mage allowed her to soon have a private room filled with a large amount of auxiliary materials and carving tools.

Ross summons Celia's puppet and takes over Celia's control of it.

Celia possesses high-level magic crystals, but she hasn't used the high-level magic crystals she received from Jonathan.

This item is mainly for the purpose of being prepared for any eventuality; under normal circumstances, low-level and mid-level magic crystals are used.

Ross manipulated the puppet to examine the advanced magic crystal carving, then picked up a carving knife and began carving rapidly.

Ten minutes later, a completely transformed crystal appeared.

Ross sculpted the high-grade magic crystal into the shape of a four-pointed star, with faint rune patterns visible, which were drawn in using excess magic crystal powder.

Celia picked it up and examined it for a moment. Even though she was an expert in runes, she couldn't understand the dense, intricate runes. She could only understand the part about purifying pollution, and the rest was completely incomprehensible.

"The runes carved by Lord Ross are even smaller than those on all the puppets and bracelets. I wonder when I'll be able to have that ability," the girl said with a hint of envy.

Ross smiled slightly: "Becoming a god is enough."

Celia: "..."

After finishing, Celia bought a box to put it away. The four-pointed star purification crystal was made into a pendant. Each point was about the size of a little finger. It was not cold to the touch, but rather warm. It also had no sharp edges, so it wouldn't cut the skin.

“Are you really going to give it to Phil in my name?” Celia asked Ross.

Ross asked in surprise, "If not in your name, then in mine?"

Celia made a face, put the four-pointed star pendant into the box, left the Sorcerer's Guild, and headed towards the city lord's castle.

"Speaking of which, why did Phil hold her birthday party at the city lord's mansion?" Celia tilted her head in thought.

"What do you think?"

"...It can't be that much of a coincidence, can it?"

Ross remained silent, staring intently at Celia.

“Okay, Phil’s surname seems to be Pharos, and the lord of Leites City is Duke Pharos. I was stupid.”

Celia had only just realized Phil's surname; like Benovia, she was a noblewoman.

Benovia was completely mysterious, and Phil knew that the surname was Pharos, so it was still easy to figure out who she was.

However, Celia hadn't thought of it that way at first. She was busy preparing a gift for Phil, and only now that the gift was ready did she realize that their relationship was unusual.

"No wonder Phil was dressed like a princess earlier, all beautiful."

As the sun gradually set, Celia arrived outside the city lord's castle.

The guards at the entrance didn't stop her and let her in directly.

Celia glanced back at the guards and saw them stopping people from entering until they produced something that looked like an invitation.

"I didn't have an invitation, so why didn't they stop me? Did Phil specifically tell me to?"

Ross chuckled, "What if you're one of the main characters tonight?"

Celia shook her head: "Forget it, Phil should be the star tonight."

She thought of the aquatic parasite she had encountered during the day.

"I hope nothing bad happens."
