Mystery: A Spark
Page 271
Just now, he had summoned spirit creatures three times in a row, trying to form a contract with a suitable messenger, but the results were unsatisfactory.
They either run so fast that you can't even see their figures clearly, making it impossible to communicate, or they're so slow that they can only crawl one centimeter every few seconds.
In short, it's all incredibly bizarre.
Compared to these spirit beings, Arodes seemed much more normal.
"Let's try again, this time through open interviews. I refuse to believe we can't find a suitable messenger!"
I don't expect Arthas to be cute and talkative, but at least he should be able to fulfill the duties of a messenger, right?
As the great ruler above the spirit world, wouldn't it be too shameful if he couldn't even find a suitable spirit creature to act as a messenger?
Hopefully, this time I can find someone normal, otherwise I'll really have to ask a big shot for help... Taking a breath, Klein calmed himself down and began the ceremony seriously again.
Gazing at the quietly burning candlelight, he took a step back and said:
"I!
"I summon in my name:"
“A spirit wandering in the void, a friendly creature that can be driven, a unique existence willing to be my messenger.”
call!
Inside the spiritual wall, the wind suddenly intensified, and Klein's half-high silk hat nearly flew into the air.
The candlelight flickered, swelling to the size of a human head, so pale it seemed to have lost its warmth.
A semi-transparent head slowly emerged as if breaking through a thin membrane, with smooth, light gold hair, blood-red eyes, and a striking and elegant appearance.
“He looks familiar…” After the other party came out completely, Klein immediately recognized him as the one he had encountered in the spirit world when he went to steal from the Sea God’s house.
The problem is, this person already owns a castle in the spirit world, so why is he applying for a messenger job? Could it be that he's just looking for a new business opportunity out of boredom?
Do spirit beings also have KPIs?
And the most crucial issue is...
Wouldn't sending this person as a messenger scare Benson and Melissa? Klein hesitated for a moment.
"Is it..." "You..." "Summoning..." "Me?"
A headless woman dressed in a somber, elaborate black dress stood there quietly, her four drooping heads opening in turn, speaking in Old Fusak.
“…Yes.” Klein glanced at the candlelight behind the headless woman, where no more spirit creatures appeared, and gave up the idea of continuing to try.
"Are you able to travel quickly through the spirit world? How are your survival skills?"
To be honest, this isn't that scary; it's just that it challenges normal people's values.
Benson has always been very brave and shouldn't be too scared, so as long as Klein is careful not to let the letter reach Melissa, there shouldn't be any problems.
The heads the headless woman was holding answered one by one:
"Okay." "Not bad..." "Not bad."
As she spoke, she floated up and then quickly fell back down, giving a demonstration.
What's with this "kind of cute" thing? Ugh! What the hell am I thinking! Klein quickly gathered his thoughts and said:
"Are you willing to sign a contract and become my messenger?"
The headless woman's skirt swayed slightly, and her four blonde, red-eyed heads nodded simultaneously:
“Okay.” “Each time…” “One…” “Gold coin.”
Sending a letter costs money? Mr. Azik didn't mention this... But it's not like I have to pay; maybe I can pay on delivery... Klein nodded and said:
"Okay, let's sign the contract then."
The contract was quickly finalized. Klein naturally chose to pay upon delivery and also learned the name of the headless woman.
"Renette Tinicol."
After the contract was completed, Klein took out a letter and a Rune coin from his pocket.
"Madam, could you please deliver a letter for me right now?"
"Okay." "Give me the letter..." "Give it to me..." "Here you go."
……
Backlund, Harvest Church.
"Are you leaving?" Bishop Utravsky, a tall man resembling a small giant, asked his colleagues.
"Yes, our initial orders were to help you stabilize the situation here and to follow His Excellency Heller's instructions."
“The situation here has stabilized now, and you have enough manpower on your side recently, so it’s time for us to go back.” Bishop Raman looked at the packed church and smiled.
Bishop Utravsky paused for two seconds and then said:
"In that case, may the Mother Goddess bless you and grant you a safe journey."
"Praise the Mother Goddess."
……
"Sir, are Bishop Raman and the others leaving?" Benson, who had just finished his sermon, stepped down from the platform, approached the giant bishop, and asked.
“Yes, their duties here have been fulfilled,” Bishop Utravsky replied.
"Then...shouldn't we go see him off?" Benson asked, puzzled.
Bishop Utravsky shook his head without explaining why.
"The sermons at the church are finished for today, Benson. You can go and learn about potions from Emlyn now. He's waiting for you there."
“I understand, Bishop.” Benson nodded and walked toward the back of the church.
Soon he arrived at a room filled with the smell of herbs.
There were already several people in the room, and in front of them stood a handsome young man with bloodshot eyes, instructing them on how to prepare potions.
After Benson arrived, Emlyn naturally included him in the teaching staff.
Time flew by during the study session, and soon everyone said goodbye to Emlyn, leaving only him and Benson.
“You’re quite talented; you’ve grasped the knowledge I’ve taught you quite quickly,” Emlyn said, stepping up to Benson and slightly raising his chin.
“Mr. White, you taught me very well,” Benson said modestly.
Emlyn smiled slightly, seemingly pleased with the compliment.
Since the smog incident, he has not only saved many people by preparing medicines, but also taught about medicine in the church, and anyone who is willing to learn can come and learn.
However, because the faith of the Church of the Earth Mother was quickly accepted by people, the church was often packed, so he had to move the class to this large room at the back of the church.
To be fair, Emlyn felt quite accomplished to save someone's life and receive gratitude in return.
He even began to accept, in a tiny bit, the teachings of the Earth Mother Goddess.
There was really only a tiny bit, no more than that.
Of course, Emlyn would never admit it; he would only say that he was just acting.
Of all the people Emlyn taught, this man named Benson was the most talented.
As a result, their relationship gradually grew closer, becoming both teacher and friend.
“Well, to be honest, I’ve always had a question in my mind. I understand that you’re researching medicines to treat the plague, but why are you so focused on medicines to treat external injuries? Aren’t other medicines more useful?” Emlyn asked curiously.
Benson paused for a moment, then said:
“A family member of mine was in an accident and suffered severe injuries, and then…”
“I’m sorry,” Emlyn sighed softly.
He had not experienced any particularly dangerous battles, and as a vampire, he could heal himself by absorbing blood even when injured.
Therefore, he has never paid much attention to medicines for treating external injuries.
But after returning home today, Emlyn plans to take some time to reread his father's books on the subject and see if there's anything he hasn't taught him.
Just as Emlyn was chatting with Benson, a figure wearing a dark and elaborate long dress and carrying four heads suddenly appeared in front of them.
At the same time, not far from the room, a tall man dressed in a brown priest's robe suddenly turned his head and looked in this direction.
And two dark green symbols appeared silently in his eyes.
If someone with sufficient knowledge were here, they would be quite surprised to find that...
Unbeknownst to anyone, this towering bishop had quietly become a witcher.

inside the room.
Upon seeing the headless figure, dressed in an elaborate long dress and carrying four heads, appear, Emlyn immediately pulled Benson behind him.
Then, he looked at the uninvited guest with a wary expression.
He dared not do anything more extreme, for fear of angering the other party.
However, to Emlin's surprise, this mysterious being that had suddenly appeared ignored him completely. Instead, it looked behind him and, from the four heads it was carrying, three of them spoke in ancient Fusak:
"I have..." "Your..." "Letter."
The fourth head didn't speak because it had an envelope in its mouth.
A messenger? What kind of person could use such a being as a messenger? Emlyn looked completely bewildered and stood there dumbfounded for a moment.
According to his understanding, any creature in the spirit world that can speak is definitely not a simple being.
While he was bewildered, Benson behind him also looked completely lost.
Because Benson had only recently become an Extraordinary, he hadn't yet started learning Old Fussack, so he couldn't understand Renette's words at all.
The scene froze instantly.
After a few seconds of stunned silence, Emlyn gradually came to his senses and, seeing Benson's somewhat bewildered expression behind him, quickly realized the situation.
He whispered a few words to Benson, who suddenly understood.
Is this the messenger from the Klein Contract? He seems quite different from the little messenger from Mr. Heller's house... Benson mustered his courage and stepped forward, taking the envelope from the headless woman's mouth.
