Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

At noon the next day, west of Dirinius Island.

The "Clover" sailed slowly into a cave under a cliff.This is a rather hidden mooring port. Simple wooden boards are put together to form a pier, and a slope can be glimpsed in the depths, which is obviously artificially excavated.

Although the space in the cave is enough to accommodate a larger pirate ship, if it weren't for the "Clover" which has its own foam cushion and can float on the sea, other ships may be smashed to pieces on the nearby reefs.

Thomas and Mary took a group of people to the island to purchase the supplies needed on the ship, but Esther didn't follow. They were already confused enough because of her arrival, there was no need to run around to cause them trouble.

At Alexander's invitation, Esther visited his "library". In fact, as far as a ship is concerned, it can only be said to be a well-stocked library.

"If you have any books you want to read, you can borrow them from here. I know how boring life at sea can be. As long as you are interested, I can explain it to you." Alexander nodded his full bookshelf, showing off his collection of pride in his words.

Esther nodded and asked, "Can you teach me Intis?"

This question was beyond Alexander's expectation: "Are you interested in linguistics?"

"I just want to learn more. I heard that there are many foreigners in Port Behrens. If possible, I want to learn both Fusac and Dutan."

"Oh? I'll assume that your path also improves your learning ability."

Alexander laughed, he didn't mind fulfilling Esther's request, and this was also a good opportunity for him to check Esther's details.The knowledge revealed inadvertently may give Alexander a new speculation point.

Esther rubbed the center of her right eyebrow: "It can also be said that it is more convenient for me to learn more languages."

In case you can only understand but can't speak, it will confuse both parties.

If there is a possibility of going to the southern continent, it is best to learn Dutan language. Fesac and Intis may be easier for Esther. After all, her giant language is sometimes more proficient than Loen language.

Languages ​​with the same source have many commonalities, and learning from scratch can also get twice the result with half the effort.

"Okay, as long as you can keep up with the progress. I was very strict as a teacher for more than ten years, I hope you don't mind."

"Perhaps Emperor Roselle also said this, 'Strict teachers can teach students who are smarter and more refined'."

Alexander laughed very happily: "Hahaha, that's the reason! When Mary told me that you were an admirer of Emperor Roselle, I was quite puzzled, but now it seems that you are indeed."

The corners of Esther's eyes twitched, she laughed a few times in agreement, and hurriedly confused the subject.

Great Emperor, Great Emperor, you have said all the good and bad things, you really don't leave room for others!

-

While Esther was rapidly expanding her language skills with Alexander, Aaron was sitting in the captain's cabin, unpacking his teacher's reply.

His expression gradually became heavy as he read the letter, and finally fell into memory while thinking.

In the past two days, the people on the ship have not been abnormal, and no one has any signs of being "parasitized". The result of the divination I just got is also normal.

My act of letting Hamel board the ship was a bit too reckless. The teacher's criticism touched on the key point. Is there a problem with the divination of Hamel?No, there is no problem with the divination result. I was affected by some adverse effects during the divination, so I made an unreasonable decision.

It was in keeping with the strange attraction of Hamel himself, but I felt nothing out of the ordinary, and I felt no discomfort.

The teacher also did a divination with a high-level bonus. She said that I have no problems, but I am constantly being disturbed by the "light".There is no problem now, and there is no guarantee that there will be no problems in the future. I need to be vigilant about her every move.

Aaron once again scanned the handwritten but tenacious reply letter, looking at the last paragraph:

"I will arrive at Nahuat Island as soon as possible. Our meeting point will be changed to here. You will sail southwest from Dirinius to this place tomorrow. You should remember the safe passage in the violent sea that I taught you.

"Protect yourself and your crew. I have never heard of the ability to swallow 'pollution'. Be careful of that 'stealer'. If what you see is not misleading or hallucinating, then she has a great possibility that she has surpassed the scope of human beings. Don't disturb her! I will secretly board the 'Clover' while you are moored on Nahuatl Island, and observe her and your situation with my own eyes."

Aaron put down the letter in his hand, got up and walked back and forth behind the desk several times. He had the urge to join forces with Thomas to throw Hamel into the crack of the spiritual world, but when he thought of the light on her body, Aaron could hardly think of any confrontation with her.

How to do this?The teacher also said "don't disturb her", so I can only take one step at a time...

Aaron tightened his bright red coat, threw the letter into the fireplace, let it shrivel into ashes in the flames, and sat back on the chair by himself.He took out a bottle of champagne from the drawer under the desk and poured it into a goblet.

"That's fine, do as you please." Aaron touched the burn on his cheek and sighed.

If you believe in your own luck, it will be easier to get good luck, but all good luck has a limit.

Aaron once summed up such a self-contradictory law when he played the "lucky guy". Now that he thinks back, he feels more enlightened in his heart.

"This may also be my chance." Aaron shook the pale golden liquid in the wine glass, gradually showing a smile, "If such a weird incident can still achieve a good result, the one who laughs last will naturally be the 'winner'..."

Even if there is no real winner in fate, everything is destined to be balanced, and gaining and losing are all part of luck.

Aaron thought this way in his heart, and suddenly felt a certain change clearly. His "winner" potion, which had not changed in the past few years, loosened his digestion progress.

There was a strange buzzing sound in his ears, and Aaron seemed to have caught a glimpse of some kind of gentle light surrounding him, but soon the hallucination-like scene disappeared.

The goblet in his hand fell and shattered on the floor, and the champagne flowed on the ground, giving off an alcoholic smell with the aroma of lemon and candied fruit.

Aaron slowly sat up straight from his chair, feeling that he had completely digested the "Winner" potion, and the progress was so fast that he was a little terrified.

That kind of light felt so familiar to him, it was the light extended by the "Clover" yesterday, and Aaron had also seen such a light when he was divination on "Hamel".

But he was in a state of panic because of the sudden "good luck".

-

Esther wrinkled her nose, raised her head subconsciously from the Intis dictionary, and glanced around blankly.

Opposite her, Alexander, who was using a small whiteboard to explain the pronunciation, noticed that Esther's eyes became dazed, and she seemed to be staring at somewhere in the void. This state made Alexander easily think of Aaron's foretelling.

So Alexander immediately stopped explaining and asked, "What's wrong?"

"There's an inexplicable premonition, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing, but it just feels a little strange." Esther shook her head, and she didn't know what the touch came from just now.

"Do you need a break?"

Esther's eyes immediately cleared up a lot, and she shook her head even more vigorously: "No need! Now is the key knowledge point, isn't it?"

Alexander pushed up the glasses that had slid down from the bridge of his nose, and continued to use the ancient Fusac language as an example to analyze the evolution of the pronunciation of Intis for Esther, continuing the language lessons for the two of them.

-

The following day, the "Clover" sailed smoothly, and Thomas' wariness of "Hamel" did not diminish, but he agreed to let her go to the restaurant on the ship with Mary instead of staying in the house all the time.

Aaron kept silent about most of Hamel's affairs. He changed his stubbornness at first, and on the day he left Dirinius Island, he told his first mate and second mate some of the things in the teacher's reply letter, and informed them of the change of the voyage.

Thomas shook his head impatiently, as if trying to drive away annoying mosquitoes: "Going to Nahuatl Island is a huge diversion for our sailing route, but since that person said so, I will not object to it."

Alexander thought for a moment before speaking: "Considering the safety of the 'Clover', I have no objection, as long as you don't make mistakes in the sailing route."

Aaron smiled and patted his heart: "Don't worry, even if I forget myself, I will never forget what the teacher taught me. This has nothing to do with my status as a 'student', but an honor."

Thomas glanced at the door: "Shall I stop Mary?"

"No," Aaron said casually, "We need you to continue to be the 'bad guy', Thomas. There is no need to restrict the contact between Mary and Hamel. Hamel has returned the beads that Mary used to 'bribe' before."

"Pretty hypocritical, maybe she's thinking about something else." Thomas whispered.

Alexander then mentioned that he and Hamel were doing "language learning", and Thomas gave a rare approval:

"While it annoys me that she understands what we're saying, it at least gives her something to do, much better than having her wandering around the boat."

Alexander didn't have much expression, his gray eyes were indifferent: "I know you're worried about her affecting the other crew members, but if she really wants to..."

Alexander pointed to Aaron: "At least Aaron has nothing to do. Even if she can't blackmail us with Aaron, taking a step back, she can still influence the 'Clover'. We can't paddle a sampan on the violent sea."

Aaron laughed dryly: "We have to wait until the teacher boards the boat."

"Okay, just wait for that one to make a decision. I don't trust your luck, Aaron, but trust that one."

Thomas walked out of the captain's cabin, slamming the door hard.

Alexander looked at this scene, but his eyes softened a lot: "Sometimes I think it's the right decision for the one to let the two of you stay on the same boat."

Aaron began to knead his eyebrows again: "The teacher is always right. Anyway, my instinct tells me that nothing will happen..."

Alexander interrupted him very rudely: "It is precisely because you are always like this that you need a first officer who dares to speak ironically and is pragmatic."

"Thoma's worried about Mary too." Aaron nodded solemnly.

"Or he just can't stand your whims, Aaron."
