Angor decided to try something else.
For example, could he try to block or deceive someone's senses?
Apart from the nightmare aura, Angor also had a special talent for illusions. When he created "Journey in the Sky", he didn't try to incorporate anything into it. However, the effect of the "Land in the Sky" was so great that even Lady Mirror was moved by it.
After that experience, Angor's understanding of illusions improved tremendously. He could easily block other people's sense of direction and space.
Later, when he read The Mystery of Nightmare Domain, he began to neglect his own talent by using nightmare illusions that were easier to use.
Angor wasn't sure if he was putting the cart before the horse, but he had to admit that nightmare illusions were very convenient. However, it didn't seem possible to combine it with alchemy for now. Angor wasn't sure if it was because he didn't know enough about nightmare illusions, or because nightmare illusions simply couldn't be used in alchemy.
What he needed to do now was to work on the illusions themselves and hope that he could find a way to break through them.
Three days later, Angor looked at a feather earring in his hand and hesitated.
This was the result of his three-day training. He could use illusions to deceive people's sense of touch without using nightmare illusions. However, this would only work on people who were at or below his level. In other words, he could only trick the senses of level-2 apprentices at best. This was nothing compared to nightmare illusions. The only good thing was that this kind of illusions could be used in alchemy.
Even so, he still chose to craft the earrings.
Yes, it was about Toby, but it wouldn't work on Greya. Greya couldn't feel anything unless she opened her spirit willingly.
All in all, Angor's attempt was a failure. An alchemy item that required the user to let go of their spirit barrier was a failure for him.
However, there was nothing he could do about it. As the days passed, he learned from the mute servant that Shadow had already obtained Naga and had left the area.
He wanted to go home as soon as possible, but there was nothing else he could do. He had no choice but to make a failed product for now.
However, Angor put a lot of effort into the design of the earring. Whether it was the design of the earring or the arrangement of the illusions, Angor paid extra attention to them. He only hoped that he could win back some points from these minor points.
He brought the earring to Greya, who was standing in the hall on the first floor. Greya's head was lowered, and she appeared to be in a daze.
Greya already had an idea when she saw Angor's expression.
Since Greya was not familiar with alchemy, it took Angor a while to explain the problem he encountered during the crafting process.
Greya considered for a moment. "I remember the illusion you created a few days ago. It felt real."
"It's a special way of applying illusions that Professor Sunders taught me, but I couldn't incorporate it into my alchemy alchemy after experimenting with it. I've thought of many ways, but in the end, I can only create this illusion by deceiving the brain's neural sensors. "
"But because of my level restriction, I can only craft it to deceive those who are of the same level as me or those who are of a lower level than me."
Greya didn't know what he was talking about. She didn't really want to understand since their knowledge overlapped.
"In other words, the item you made now is useless to me?"
Angor nodded, then shook his head. "Sir, you can feel the illusion if you try to sense it with your spirit."
Angor lowered his head as if he was dejected.
To most Magi, letting go of their spiritual barriers to sense the illusions was an impossible choice.
"I know it's a failure, but I tried my best," Angor mumbled.
A failure? Greya didn't say anything. As far as she was concerned, Angor had already fulfilled all her requirements. The only reason he called it a failure was because Angor had high standards for it.
Greya knew what Angor meant. He wanted his item to be usable by both apprentices and wizards.
But this was a false proposition.
A tool made by an apprentice wizard could be used by an official wizard. For most apprentice alchemists, it was an extremely rare experience. Every time an apprentice made a tool, the whole world would celebrate with a drum beating and a song of joy. It was normal for apprentices to not be able to make an item that could be used by wizards.
On the other hand, Angor was experiencing the opposite.
Greya sighed in her mind. She looked at Angor's awkward expression and realized that he was really sad about his failure.
She knew that Angor didn't have high standards for himself. He just underestimated himself because he didn't know enough alchemists.
If it was any other alchemist, they would have already started talking with confidence and assurance.
Angor carefully looked up and saw Greya's expressionless face. This made him even more nervous. He considered and said, "Lady, I admit that I'm not strong enough right now. But I promise, if I can meet your requirements one day, I'll make a new item and deliver it to you in person."
Angor didn't mention "return Toby" because he knew that if he did that, he would really be "materializing" Toby.
He waited anxiously for Greya's answer.
A moment later, Greya grinned. "Alright, I'll do it. But I have a condition. "
"What is it?"
"You don't have to do it yourself. I'll decide the time."
Angor nodded and accepted the offer.
Greya already thought that Angor had fulfilled her conditions, and she already planned to accept his illusion item. But she didn't expect to receive a promise from Angor that he would make something extra for her.
She had high hopes for Angor's future, especially his talent in alchemy. Perhaps he would become a master alchemist in no time. She just earned a promise from a "future master alchemist".
"Take out what you've refined."
Angor had been explaining the drawbacks of his crafting, but he didn't take out the feather earring until Greya brought it up.
He carefully took out the feather earring and handed it to Greya.
The feather was silver-white in color, and the engravings on it were very detailed. Each pattern looked exactly like Toby's feather. The soft curves of the earring gave off a strange sense of beauty.
Greya was quite satisfied with its appearance.
She accepted the earring but didn't test it right away. Instead, she smiled. "I like the shape. As for the effect … well, it doesn't matter. I'll be waiting for your surprise in the future."
Angor smiled sheepishly.
Greya put the earring into her pocket. "Let me see Toby."
Angor quickly took Toby out of his chest pocket and handed it to Greya.
Greya gently stroked Toby's feather. "Please take care of Toby from now on."
"I'm not fit to take care of Toby right now." Greya sighed. "I left my body in the Nightmare Realm, and my enemies already know that I'm still alive. Toby will be in more danger if he stays with me."
"Don't worry, Lady Greya. I'll take good care of Toby." Angor sounded serious.
"I trust you." "You're leaving Dark Castle soon, aren't you?" Greya smiled and handed the toby back to Angor. "You should be leaving Dark Castle soon, right?"
Angor nodded.
Greya took out a space capsule and a golden card from her pocket. "Take these. There are some Soul Orbs in the capsule. If Toby's next tribulation, they might come in handy. As for this card, it's your compensation from Felicia. It's a golden VIP card of the Butterfly Tavern. She was rude last time. I hope you don't mind. "
Greya didn't mention the "rude" incident. As Isabelle said, it was best not to hear about it. Angor didn't want to talk about souls either, so he accepted the gift and didn't say anything else.
"You can go now." Greya looked at Toby again with longing in her eyes. "I hope you and Toby can surprise me the next time we meet."
Angor nodded, bowed deeply to Greya, and left the room.
Since everything was inside the bracelet, he quickly left Dark Castle and followed the winding path to the far end of the city.
Greya stood by the window and watched as Angor's figure disappeared from her sight.
After making sure that Angor had left Otherworld, she sighed and sat on the sofa in the living room.
After a while, Felicia walked out of the darkness. "If you really don't want to let him go, you can give him to me. At least I can guarantee his safety."
Greya glanced at Felicia and shook her head. "Come on, Toby will run away on his own. You don't even need to chase him away. Why don't you just leave him to Angor? I can see that he really likes Toby, and Toby is happy to be with him. "
"But are you sure you want to leave Toby to an apprentice?"
"It doesn't matter. I'm just betting on the future. Toby's future, Angor's future … and mine …" Greya's voice was so low that only she could hear the last sentence.
Felicia nodded and didn't continue the topic. She sat down beside Greya and took out a glass of wine.
Greya took out the earrings made by Angor from her pocket and injected some mana into them to activate them. She looked forward to the unknown.
