Mystery: She came from the Chaos Sea.

Chapter 12 Creating characters is a way to kill time

After it became clear that "Misfortune" had not grown tired of Helmani, the wolf cub could only leave dejectedly. Helmani breathed a sigh of relief and once again expressed her gratitude to Lady "Misfortune" for her protection.

"Repay me by being a good cook." It seemed like a joke, but the tone was serious. As the words fell, the figure of the "misfortune" lady disappeared from the wicker chair.

"They're all either trying to eat me, pretending to want to 'eat' me, or wanting to eat my cooking... They're all foodies!"

Looking at the deserted and empty dwelling, Hermaine grumbled as she wiped her long sleeves. She first cleaned out an unused room to use as Urolius's room.

Then he hurriedly ran to the kitchen to rummage through the remaining ingredients, carefully planning what delicious food he could make.

"The pinnacle of my path was 'Dreamer,' which... well, not exactly time-traveled..."

"Anyway, there's no cheat code, and no lucky encounter to level me up to the maximum. This way, I can just imagine all sorts of delicious food just by thinking about it..."

Helmayne, who had painstakingly prepared a table full of dishes, was lost in thought, but the satisfaction of doing it herself also filled her heart.

Just then, a small hand tried to sneak a peek at the food on the table, but Helmaene slapped it away: "Urolius, this is lunch prepared for your savior. A good child should be polite."

"It's been so long since I've had Helmaene's cooking." Ulorus's stomach rumbled, his wide eyes seemingly trying to melt anyone's heart, but he looked at Helmaene with utter confusion: "My savior?"

Even if this child manages to escape danger along the way, the past six months must have been extremely difficult. But Helmani still insisted, "If Lady 'Misfortune' hadn't concealed your extraordinary inspiration beforehand, would you still be sleeping so soundly?"

Hermaine told Ulroth about the sudden "visit" of the wolf cub, partly to warn him that the current situation was very dangerous.

But Urolius, kneeling on the stool, stared blankly at the food on the table, clearly not having heard much.

Hermaine really wanted to take Ulrich's brain apart to see if the processor inside the child's brain was single-threaded...

However, this focus is also Ouro's greatest strength.

It was this focus that made Urolius, despite his young age, the one in the tribe who went the furthest down the "monster" path.

"You brat. If you keep thinking about stealing the food your sister left for me, I'll throw you out." The silhouette of the "Goddess of Misfortune" appeared at the dining table and gracefully sat down opposite her.

Meanwhile, Urouge, who was trying to reach out his little paws to steal food, had the wooden stool under his knees disappear little by little, as if it had been erased by an eraser.

This sudden change caused Ulrich, who was kneeling on the wooden stool, to fall to the ground with a thud.

Helmaenie couldn't bear to look at the child's miserable state, so she covered her eyes with her plate, thinking that out of sight, out of mind.

Ulorus remained silent, his gaze fixed on the food on the table.

Seeing this, the "misfortune" lady couldn't help but smile, but she didn't slow down her eating at all.

However, the missing wooden stool reappeared.

And an invisible force lifted Urelius's emaciated body, allowing him to sit back down on the wooden stool.

Hermaeene seemed thoughtful upon seeing this:

This seems to be a way for Lady "Misfortune" to accept Ulrolius's decision to stay and live here...

After the meal, Lady "Misfortune" had a habit of taking a nap, while Urolius helped Helmaene with the housework. Although children raised in the tribe had a tendency to be greedy, they were all hardworking and efficient.

After doing all this, Helmani took out square stone slabs from the room that had been designated as a study.

These stone slabs were used for carving text.

After organizing all the potion recipes and pathway sequences she could find, Helmani found a new and meaningful thing to do to pass the time—

That is to create a written language that belongs to humankind and can leverage the power of nature.

It's very difficult to create something from nothing.

However, Zhou Mingxiang had done research on the origins of various languages ​​and was quite knowledgeable about writing systems. Moreover, Helmani was proficient in two extraordinary languages, Giant Language and Dragon Language, so the project was quite promising.

Although Ouroboros had no talent or new ideas for creating writing, his powerful calculation abilities allowed him to help Helmaene organize the commonalities and differences between the writing systems of giants and dragons.

With the assistance of Urolius, Hermaeus's deductions were much faster.

Helmani had a premonition that it wouldn't be long before she could truly carve a language on the stone slab that was more in line with the pronunciation habits of human races and could leverage the power of nature.

Lady "Misfortune" sometimes looks at Helmaene's word-creation, and aside from being surprised at first that Helmaene also has this tranquil and thoughtful side, she has never participated or interfered, but has only quietly observed.

Helmayne, engrossed in her new research, led a fulfilling life and felt no pain at all from being forced to confine herself to this residence.

Ouroboros also had plenty of patience.

But while Lady "Misfortune" was out busy, Urolius, carrying stacks of stone tablets, suddenly brought up a topic that surprised Hermaea:

"Sister Helmaene."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"What's wrong?"

"It seems that 'Misfortune' has always been suppressing some kind of pain and madness."

Hearing this, Helmaenie looked up in surprise: "What did you say?"

Ulorus spoke slowly, his tone devoid of emotion:

"Although my inspiration was blocked, I could still vaguely see an indescribable gray mist occasionally swirling around Lady 'Misfortune'..."

"Sometimes I can see some blurry images, like a magnificent palace with a style similar to that of giants, where Lady 'Misfortune' twists into the shape of countless worms."

Ulorius paused, his tone still devoid of emotion, but now calmer and more serious: "If it weren't for the mysterious power that Lady 'Misfortune' had placed on my spirit, my intuition tells me I would have gone mad the moment I saw these images."

The more Helmaene listened, the deeper her brows furrowed. Although Urolius often saw false illusions that tormented him, there were very few times when he could see images that foreshadowed omens.

Is the seemingly gentle and rational "Misfortune" lady also unable to escape the mad nature of the demon wolf clan?

Hermaine rubbed her throbbing forehead, continuing to ponder the words Urolius had brought.

Majestic palaces, worms... what do these images foreshadow?

worm……

Helmani knew that a certain mythological form of the pathway possessed a twisted and bizarre worm imagery—that was the "Diviner" pathway, to which her unawakened brother, the protagonist of the video story, Zhou Mingrui, belonged!

Also known as the "Fool's Approach"!

How did the "Misfortune" lady, who is clearly the second sequence of the "Night" pathway, get involved with this kind of imagery?

"The Fool," the gray fog...

And the things associated with these words...

Helmani's first thought was of her brother Zhou Mingrui's greatest advantage, which was also the root cause of his eventual slumber—

Yuanbao.

For some unknown reason, the "Misfortune" lady became involved with the Source Castle and was corrupted by it.
