Two hours later.
Felicia was still inside the ghost ship. She opened one door after another along the corridor, and each time, she saw something different.
When she saw a blood-stained book, she would imagine a twisted and bizarre story. When she saw a torn pink letter, she seemed to see a man wooing a young girl. When she saw a smashed ancient mirror, she seemed to see a hysterical young woman … In every room, she would see a lot of new and interesting stories that even made her want to slap the table and cry out in praise.
But in reality, there was no one behind the cabin door. All the stories came from one item after another, and they were all made up by her own imagination, but she was certain of them.
At this moment, she pushed open a dark door.
It was pitch-black on the other side of the door. After taking a few steps, Felicia felt as if she had fallen into a chaotic world. She couldn't reach the sky or the ground. She was floating in the air without a fixed location.
Felicia continued to walk forward curiously. As she walked, she felt her soul tremble.
Felicia was startled. She thought that someone was attacking her soul, so she tried to get out of the illusion. Using her spirit feelers, she saw the real world — the hall on the first floor of Dark Castle. Did that mean it was easy for her to get out of the illusion?
Angor didn't create this illusion to restrict anyone, so it wasn't hard for her to leave.
Knowing that she could leave the illusion at any time, Felicia calmed down and decided to stay here to see what Angor was up to.
When Greya's spirit feelers left her body, she glanced at Greya, who was sitting on the sofa, and saw tears welling up in Greya's eyes.
Felicia was curious about what Greya saw.
She didn't know how long she had been walking, but she suddenly heard strange syllables in her ears.
The syllables were vague, but the voice sounded familiar. It sounded like Lady Isabelle's voice.
Did Angor imitate Lady Isabelle's voice? As Felicia tried to figure out what to do, the syllables became faster and faster.
With each syllable, her soul would tremble. Towards the end, those strange syllables even caused her soul to throb as if it was about to leave her body.
When the last syllable was uttered, Felicia felt that a tall and dazzling gate suddenly appeared in her soul, and her soul crawled out of the gate. She saw a flash of white light, and she found herself standing in front of the dark cabin door again.
Felicia was stunned for a moment. She curiously sensed her soul. It was as quiet as ever. Her soul was still there, and there was no sign of it leaving her body.
So, what she just experienced was just an illusion within an illusion? Felicia recalled her experience in the Dark Chaos and said, "I can actually feel my soul leaving my body."
She had a contemplative look on her face. She felt like this was some kind of training fantasy. Such an illusory realm might be beneficial to those who were learning the Soul Ribbon Technique.
Also, why did Lady Isabelle's voice appear in the illusion?
"This illusion is getting more and more interesting." Felicia grinned.
She stepped away from the dark door and moved on to the next room.
She didn't know how Angor managed to "read a story" from a single object, but she could tell that Angor put a lot of effort into creating the illusion just by looking at the details of each room.
Felicia watched the whole process of Angor giving the feather earring to Greya. Back then, Felicia felt that Angor was underestimating his own abilities. Now that she saw the true power of this illusion, she was even more convinced that Angor had underestimated himself.
Such a wonderful illusion, such great care, and such realistic details. Most alchemists wouldn't be able to create something like this.
Not only did Angor manage to create something at such a young age, but he also put a lot of effort into every detail. This was what made her feel moved.
Felicia walked to a room at the end of the cabin. The door was blood-red and had an anchor symbol carved on it.
She had wandered around the Specter Ship until now, but nothing unexpected had happened. This made her a little unhappy. What was the point of exploring a ghost ship if there was no danger at all?
Therefore, when she saw the blood-red door, she had an intuition that there might be a surprise behind the door … The truth of the ghost ship might be behind the door.
Felicia's vision slowly merged into the blood-red door.
"Ah! Don't come near me! Get out of my way!"
At this moment, a cry of surprise came from nowhere. Felicia was stunned. Before she could react, the illusion suddenly froze, turned into soft white feathers, and disappeared without a trace.
Instead of the door, she found herself in a hall on the first floor of Dark Castle. She was sitting on a sofa with a glass of sake in her hand.
Felicia was in a daze. Why did the illusion suddenly disappear?
Felicia felt her body trembling. She turned around and saw Greya hugging her knees while shivering.
She also saw Greya tossing the feather earring to the floor, where it was still glowing.
So Greya stopped activating the feather earring and threw it away? That's why the illusion disappeared? Felicia finally realized what was going on.
She was a little disappointed that she couldn't see what was behind the door, but she was more concerned about Greya's condition. "What's wrong, Greya?"
Greya looked at Felicia with her trembling eyes. She was begging Felicia for help.
Before Felicia could say anything, Greya's soul suddenly fell into a deep slumber and released another young girl's soul to take over her body.
Greya put on an innocent and naive look. "Sister? What's wrong? "
Felicia let out a long sigh. She wondered what was wrong with Greya. Why did she give up her main soul again? Her soul was almost fully recovered.
"I'm hungry, sis," Greya complained.
Felicia shook her head and let Greya do the cooking. She picked up the feather earring from the floor and looked at Greya with a grim expression.
Did Angor really do something to Greya in the illusion?
With his alchemy skills, it might be possible.
With that in mind, Felicia returned to her bedroom with the feather earring in hand. She planned to return to the dreamland. This time, she would not stay on the coast, nor would she board the Specter Ship. She wanted to see what would happen if she followed the wine thief. Even Greya was so scared of him!
…
While Felicia was about to activate another main storyline, Angor returned to the surface world.
Coincidentally, it was noon.
As soon as he stepped out of the Corpse Cave, he felt a bone-chilling wind brushing against his exposed skin. He looked around and saw that the Forest of Resentment was covered by a thick layer of snow.
The ground was also covered with soft white snow that was enough to reach his ankles.
Boom! Boom!
Angor heard a loud noise behind him. He turned around and saw Shadow kicking the trunk of a big tree, which caused all the snow on the branches to fall off. Shadow chuckled and ran out of the range of the falling snow.
However, his beautiful golden-haired puppet, Naga, was covered in snow because of Shadow's trick.
"Aye aye aye aye. Lady Naga, let me help you get rid of all this snow." Shadow lifted Naga's chin with a finger. Shadow's image was reflected in Naga's blue eyes.
"Please don't do that, Master." Naga's face was flushed with shyness, and her voice was cold and indifferent. She was clearly speaking in a straightforward manner, but there was a hint of shyness in her voice.
"Don't do what?" Shadow put an arm around Naga's waist and showed a lustful expression.
Ever since he got his hands on Naga, his long-cherished wish finally came true. He had been wearing a lascivious smile on his face. He didn't dare to do that when he was still inside Dark Castle. Now that he was out of the castle's range, he began to interact with Naga.
He finally realized that Nagas could not only talk, but also think for themselves.
Last time, when he looked at Naga from afar, he sensed a great pressure coming from Naga, but Shadow didn't feel it at all. Naga must have been going easy on Shadow back then, which meant Naga already had basic thinking abilities.
A powerful wizard-level puppet with basic thinking abilities … Angor felt a little scared. If he didn't have a contract with Shadow, he wouldn't even dare to stand next to him.
"Master, I'm a bit cold —"
"Come to me. I'll keep you warm."
"You can do whatever you want. But I'm going back to Water Grasse now. Shadow, let's set up a meeting place. Where should we meet tomorrow?" Angor hurriedly stopped them.
"No need! I'm staying with you today. I don't have any money on me. I'm going to borrow some money from you to buy some clothes. "Angor was wearing a robe right now.
Angor frowned. "Let's go then."
Before they left, Shadow released the group of pitiful apprentices that had been under his control for almost two weeks. They didn't even dare to let out a fart in front of their archenemy, Shadow. Instead, they scattered like birds and beasts. Magician was the only one who gave Shadow an angry glare. He also looked at Angor with a puzzled look before he ran down the mountain.
Back in Water Grasse, Angor tossed Shadow a bag of money so that he could buy some necessities. Angor went back to his villa in the bay area first.
