The Demon’s Menu

Swish swish.

With the sound of the pages being turned, Jason began to recognize the text at the beginning of a new page as before. For Jason whose [Picture Repetition] level was only basic, such recognition was very laborious.

Reading word by word is essential.

In order to be able to read better, he almost used the tip of his index finger to point to each word to read.

This time is no exception.

However, when Jason's index finger pressed on the page, a faint glow lit up from the page.

Radiance is gentle and tough.

Before Jason could react, he shrouded Jason in.

Jason felt as comfortable as the breeze was blowing his face.

However, the next moment——

what!

A terrible scream that only existed in Jason's ears appeared.

The shrillness of the scream was indescribable in words, as if a real steel needle had pierced Jason's eardrum.

In fact, Jason's condition is worse than imagined.

At the moment when the screams appeared, his whole body trembled, an unprecedented pain burst from his body, and then there was a burst of warmth in his nose and mouth, and blood spurted out directly.

Especially the internal organs, along with his breathing, can feel pain.

But Jason didn't care about this at all. His eyes were staring at his body, a dark shadow was slowly being pulled out of his body, and the shadow was struggling.

Every time he struggled, Jason felt a sharp pain in his stomach.

Sweat appeared on his forehead, ran down his cheeks, and dripped onto the ground.

Jason gritted his teeth, not letting himself cry out in pain.

He just stared at him like this, watching the black shadow pull away from him little by little, and then in the brilliance, like the ice and snow under the scorching sun, it quickly dissipated.

This process lasted about three seconds or so.

When the shadow completely dissipated and the brilliance also dissipated, an unprecedented relaxed state appeared on Jason.

Jason can clearly feel that the oppression and tension that follow him will also dissipate.

Then a moment of enlightenment came to mind.

When I was just in the 'moon mask', I didn't completely break free!

I've been targeted!

only……

I just don't know!

Suddenly, Jason couldn't help recalling the situation when the group of corpses stared at him and smiled.

Suddenly, my heart froze.

Because, he knew very well that if the state just now was allowed to develop, he would probably become one of those corpses!

Involuntarily, Jason clenched the book in his hand even more tightly.

This book saved him once again!

Or to be more precise, it was 'his teacher' who anticipated what might happen and made proper arrangements.

Subconsciously, Jason lowered his head and looked at the book in his hand.

At this time, he suddenly discovered that four lines of text appeared on the side of the original text:

'Jason, my apprentice, I'm glad when you see these lines, because it proves that you are still you. ’

'Just in case, I suggest that you record here the skills of the Night's Watch. I'm sorry, I was supposed to guide you myself, but something happened that I had to deal with myself. ’

'Sorry again, I can't tell you more, but I promise I'll let you know when we meet again. ’

'May you keep watch at night, may you be in darkness, may your heart be bright - your teacher, night watchman. Dan'

Text is written in Common Language.

The last sentence carries some kind of wish.

After a while, the words disappeared without a trace.

Jason wasn't surprised by this.

What's even more amazing, he just encountered it,

This kind of trick similar to invisible ink is really pediatric.

Of course, it could also be an advanced technique that he couldn't understand.

But anyway, Jason was slightly relieved.

The most important hurdle for him as a false 'heir' has been passed.

Even if we meet later, he behaves abnormally and has room to turn around.

However, at this moment, Jason didn't think much about those things.

What he is more concerned about is the night watchman's skills recorded in the book in front of him by the pictures and words.

Protect...evil...night watchman...sign...can prevent...a certain level of...evil forces from invading...how to use...combination of sentences...handprint...

Compared with the noun explanation of monsters, Jason can also make guesses based on his own experience and infer the meaning of the words. At this moment, facing the completely unfamiliar words about 'protection from evil', Jason can't help frowning. .

It's so hard to understand!

He tried his best to guess each other's context, and barely managed to understand the meaning of some of the words in the 'sentence combination', but the combination of the before and after sentences became completely incomprehensible.

As for the remaining part?

That is completely incomprehensible.

The level of Tu Fuyu is too low.

To fully parse this text that records 'protection from evil', at least entry level is required.

Jason thought, rubbing his swollen temples.

It is too difficult to read by relying on the basic level of [Picture Repetition].

Not only is it inefficient, but it is also extremely energy-intensive.

Coupled with the injury he just received, Jason felt as if he was staying up all night, his body was going to be hollowed out, and he was in a coma at any time.

Therefore, Jason put down the book in his hand and lifted the lid of the pot.

The scales were removed, and the meat was cut into square pieces. In boiling water, it became firmer. The lean meat became brighter and redder, and the white meat had a layer of crystal transparency.

The only downside is that there is no more seasoning.

Otherwise, roasting is the best option.

Of course, that didn't stop Jason from sweeping away all the food.

【Devouring the Goat Hound! 】

[Slight recovery from injury X3! 】

[Satisfaction +2X3]

[Satisfaction: 6]

...

Better than 'Laughter' and 'Trickster', but inferior to 'Submarine'!

Without any hesitation, Jason chose to consume 2 points of satiety to upgrade [Picture Reply].

[Graphic Fuyu (passive) (Introduction): Tu Fuyu is an ancient language, it is only spread among secret organizations and mysterious forces. According to rumors, it will be generated through corresponding combinations and rituals. Incredible effects, but these are still a little far from you. You have only mastered the introductory knowledge of it. At this level, it is not difficult for you to read, but you still need to think about some rare words for a long time. 】

...

Once again, a clutter of knowledge flooded into my mind.

This time, it was much longer than the previous basis.

A full three seconds.

Jason believed that if he hadn't just completed the two incidental treatments and recovered his physical strength just by relying on 'food', he would definitely be in a coma at this time.

However, when all this was over, Jason looked at the note in his hand, but the corners of his mouth curled up and a smile appeared.

He has been able to read very easily.

Everything that was difficult to understand just now becomes simple and easy at this time.

And what happened next made Jason's smile even brighter.

[Discovering the skill 'Protection from Evil', and judging that the skill map rephrasing has reached the entry level, does it cost 3 points of satiety to learn? 】

...

An unexpected surprise.

Jason did not expect that this notebook, unexpectedly, not only allowed him to directly learn [Picture Repetition], but also other skills.

Although the cost of [Protection from Evil] is much higher than other skills, what is there to hesitate at this time?

Jason immediately gave a positive answer:

Yes!
