I'm a heartthrob in the wizarding world [Western Fantasy Elf]
Chapter 53 New Journey
After drying the clothes, Ye Qimeng and Alexa went to the attic together to look for usable books.
After talking to Alexa just now, she learned that there was a small hidden attic in the wooden house. She needed to press the mechanical button on the back of the painting to start the elevator to the attic.
When this small entrance that could only accommodate one person appeared in front of Ye Qimeng, she was still shocked: It seemed quite big up there?
Recall that the wooden roof is triangular, which naturally creates a large gap in the middle. If it is used to store some special items, it is indeed a good place.
Alexa lifted her skirt and walked skillfully onto the creaking elevator. The rickety wooden planks did not affect her balance at all. Like a fairy, she lightly carried the oil lamp and walked up to the dark attic.
Ye Qimeng followed behind like a dancer with uncoordinated limbs. He couldn't keep his body swaying left and right, so he had to change into an awkward posture and climbed up like a cockroach.
"Alexa, why do I feel that you are more familiar with the structure of this wooden house than me?" Ye Qimeng chatted in order to relieve his nervousness about unknown things.
"I only discovered the existence of this attic when you were cleaning the human settlement for a few days."
After Alexa walked up to the attic, she carefully placed the oil lamp on the floor, then turned back and handed her hand to Ye Qimeng, who was still climbing the ladder.
Ye Qimeng took the hand from Alexa, closed his eyes, and quickly walked the remaining steps with his heart racing.
"The location of this entrance is indeed somewhat hidden. If the oil painting hadn't suddenly fallen, I wouldn't have discovered it." Alexa continued to explain.
This is a long and narrow space that exactly corresponds to the shape of the corridor on the second floor. The entrance is at the end of the corridor, and the dark place on the other side is filled with large wooden boxes.
Ye Qimeng noticed the thick dust on the floor and the spider webs on the big wooden box, and realized that no one might have been here for a long time.
In the middle of the wooden floor, there should be shoe prints left by the small leather boots that Alexa often wears. They are a bit messy. It seems that she was also surprised when she found this place.
"Alexa, are you saying there are books about transfiguration here?" Ye Qimeng helped Alexa lift the oil lamp on the ground, looked at an open large wooden box at the end of the darkness, and asked.
The lid of the big wooden box was leaning against the gap at the back, with only a sharp corner exposed. Alexa didn't know what she saw when she opened it, and left in a hurry before closing the lid.
"I was in a hurry when I opened it. I only briefly saw the statue of the ancestor of transfiguration, and I didn't dare to delve deeper alone."
There was a trace of fear on Alexa's face, as if the originator of transformation was a terrible person.
Ye Qimeng stepped forward and took a look into the big wooden box. He was almost scared to death by the ferocious face he bumped into.
"Fuck...fuck...fuck." She was so frightened that she couldn't even utter the curse.
"Isn't it very... hard to look at..." Alexa expressed her meaning tactfully.
Ye Qimeng pointed at the lifelike statue in the box, and his fingers couldn't help but trembled: "You said this is a statue?"
"So even I was scared. It was really scarier than the legendary devil." She looked at the roof and thought for a long time, then recalled: "I had only seen simple drawings in books before. It left an indelible psychological shadow on me when I was young.”
Perhaps Ye Qimeng was present this time, so Alexa became bolder and stepped forward to take out what seemed to be a stone statue from the large wooden box.
Under the dim light, the statue looked more realistic and terrifying.
This is not a normal elf. There is no visible part of his body except for the pair of pointed elf ears.
Judging from his shirtless upper body, he should be a mutated male elf.
There is no intact flesh on his body, and all of them are covered with diseased tissue similar to sarcomas. His eyes are bloodshot, and most of them protrude outside the eye sockets. It can be seen from the sharp little nose and the gaping bloody mouth. , it is really unbearable to look at.
This time Alexa looked up and down the scary-looking statue, and sighed: "The ancestor of transfiguration - Rolandre Shakeli, a beautiful man with purple eyes from the Eastern Plains, a soul purer than morning dew, was... Tainted by dark magic."
The few remaining white hairs on the head of Rolandel's statue were still sticky beside his cheeks.
"You told me he used to be a handsome man..." Ye Qimeng spread his hands and said helplessly: "I really can't imagine it."
"He was once the glory of the Eastern Plains and the destined husband of Queen Silina, but his soul was eroded by dark magic on the wedding night, and his appearance gradually mutated and shrank into this terrifying appearance." Alexa's tone Full of regret.
"Why does his statue appear in this small attic?" Ye Qimeng expressed his doubts.
"I don't know, but he was once the greatest shape-shifting warlock in the entire 'Land of the Immortal', but no one knows why he came into contact with dark magic."
Alexa couldn't bear to look at the deformed ancient sculpture anymore, so she stretched out her hand under the big wooden box, seeming to be groping for something.
She searched in the dark corner for a long time before taking her hand back.
Moreover, he brought back a thick book. The cover was surrounded by exquisite gilding and embossed patterns, and in the middle was a portrait of a male elf.
"Is this what Rolandel Xia Keli looked like before he mutated?" Ye Qimeng squinted at the cold and unusually cold elf man on the cover, and said with regret, "It's such a pity that such a beautiful man has fallen like this. "
She had never seen Rolandel in his prime before, and beauty was not a rare thing among elves, so she couldn't understand what Alexa was regretting.
It wasn't until she saw the hot stamping painting on the cover that she realized this rare handsome man with the beauty of a god, if Alexa and Alex were of the beauty level of aristocrats.
As his name suggests, his narrow purple eyes are as beautiful as newly bloomed violets in spring. His cold and slender facial lines coupled with sharp and tall facial features add to the sense of being secluded from the world.
No wonder Alexa said that his soul was purer than morning dew.
At first glance, she is a flower of the high mountains.
Alexa dug out a thick gray felt blanket from the other boxes, wrapped his statue, put it back into the big wooden box, and solemnly closed the lid that had not been put away.
It seems that this is indeed a magician who is deeply respected in the Elf Kingdom.
***
Before opening "The Travels of Rolandre Shakli", Ye Qimeng had a very complicated mood.
On the cover of the book was a large gilt calligraphy of "The Travels of Rolandre Shakli" and a portrait of Rolandal's cold and beautiful appearance. These seemed to tempt her to open the book and study seriously.
But her mind kept automatically recalling the ugly statue of mutated Rolandel she had just seen.
Alexa said that it was recorded in the history books that it was because Rolandel was eager for success that he used dark magic as an auxiliary to the transformation magic, which led to this unprecedented mutation and shrinkage phenomenon.
Therefore, as long as Ye Qimeng uses transformation magic carefully, there will basically be no problems.
"The key is, how do I know which spell is correct?" Ye Qimeng complained helplessly facing the forbidden book in front of him.
Ever since Rolandel mutated and shrunk, he disappeared from the Elf Kingdom. Even Silina's most powerful royal mage, Lamel, could not find any trace of him.
Lamel could only say to the queen: "Dear Majesty, your husband may have gone to the land of the gods. Wherever he looks, there is darkness, without a trace of light."
Lamel's words were tactful, but they were thousands of times crueler than the truth.
In the end, even Silina gave up looking for her lover because she still had her own country to protect.
For the sake of her people, she couldn't continue to be negative and sad.
She can only choose to give up her lover, even if she is reluctant to let go.
But at night when the Luna star rises, she will still pray to the gods, begging Rolandel to find the right way home in the dark.
"Forget it, I'd better take a look first and then talk."
Ye Qimeng, who couldn't bear her curiosity, carefully opened the thick cover of the book, and some yellowed paper appeared in front of her eyes.
The above is still the familiar elven common language, but this book is written in a more ancient and gorgeous cursive script. This was also the writing font favored by nobles a hundred years ago. At that time, it was still an era where extreme luxury was advocated. This type of font that could better reflect the luxurious temperament was naturally highly praised by the elven nobles.
Ye Qimeng flipped through it roughly and found that the entire book was basically about Rolandel's travel diary, with some stories about encounters with special magical creatures mixed in, but there was no mention of how to use transformation.
This made her start to wonder if she and Alexa had picked up the wrong book and needed to search the dark and scary attic again.
Perhaps this rainy night with thunder and lightning was too boring. Ye Qimeng, who was alone in the room, used the dim light of the oil lamp to read every page of the entire book in a daze.
Until the second half of the night when the rain stopped, she still didn't feel sleepy at all. Instead, she became more energetic as she watched.
Looking at these complicated words written in black ink, she couldn't help but think of the movie scenes she had watched. It seemed that there were also protagonists reading with the help of weak light in the middle of the night.
She couldn't help but think: What would she do if she were the protagonist in a movie and encountered such difficulties?
