Chapter 73 Dark Demon Catch the Destiny Hook
***Edited by Kronost***
White Gawd was very fortunate that he got late because of his butt-pain.
He originally thought that these Order members would not come back tonight after the assembly last night, so he wanted to come over to see if the statue of the goddess was desecrated by the masked man last night.
Unexpectedly, not only the members of the Order came, there were many of them present.
Their prostrate posture was so humble; it brought out the nobleness of the goddess.
It was not the first time White had seen their gathering.
He always felt that he was not the same as them.
There was a difference in sequence.
This made him feel special.
But now was not the time to prolong his stay.
From his perspective, he couldn't see the goddess' eyes. He just felt that the goddess statue had become more sacred.
He quietly retreated.
Although the number of cracks in the goddess had increased, there were "tinkers" to repair it.
There was no need for him to worry.
...
Life in Saint Marian was as fun as ever boiling with excitement.
The news that the princesses of the kingdom are going to participate in the costume party spread like wildfire, and set off an ever-increasing ripple in the otherwise ordinary life.
The students began to buzz with excitement.
It was not just the first-year students.
The whole castle was boiling with excitement.
The eldest princess Angie, like the prince, is one of the most powerful contenders for the throne. Both her appearance and virtue are admired by many.
It is not an exaggeration to say that more than half of the boys in the castle are her admirers.
Of course, admiration and love are different.
The princesses' scheduled participation directly elevated the costume party on halloween to a higher level.
Students who regarded it as a once-a-year event came up with fascinating ideas.
Boys wanted to dress more formally and handsomely.
The girls wanted to make themselves look more beautiful; it was the best that they could do to compete with the princess!
The costume party or masquerade is a special event, even common people could wear princess dresses without being scorned.
All girls wanted to be a princess.
Moreover, there would be real princesses in the party.
"Childish!"
Emma whispered, while carefully selecting cute hairpins.
It is said that the beauty shop opened by the elves has a plant essence that could temporarily straighten the hair.
She didn't dislike her fluffy hair, but sometimes she wanted to try another style.
...
Friday, second week of October.
The young magisters had more credits, and at the same time had the excuse of "Preparing the core material for the magical spirit card", so this weekend's Traveller Street was extremely lively; one could see excited first-year students everywhere.
Finally, White's butt stopped hurting so much. He and Robert were shopping together in the "10-credit store", hoping to find some cheap but special materials.
White had 50 points deducted for using [Forbidden Love] to photograph the back of Professor Cazer's head.
And although Robert was the victim, he was also deducted 10 points as punishment for staying outside the dormitory late..
He had been complaining that Professor Silver was really unpleasant, and Sister Kaleid was much better.
At the same time.
Dark also came to Traveller Street.
He bought some things that cat grass liked. He was also thinking about what materials would be used to craft the magical spirit card in Monday's magic theory class.
He was bored using Cat grass hair as a material, and he wanted to try something new.
For example, the combination of rat hair and lightning-struck wood?
He heard that there is a magical spirit called Lightning Rat. Although it has only two stars, it is extremely fast. It is really suitable for holding the magical ball to avoid being attacked in a duel match.
For the little magister who can't use magic energy to manipulate the magic ball in the air, this is a very cost-effective magical spirit.
In addition, the combination of the color-changing lizard and the transparent umbrella mushroom is also good. It is said that there is a considerable probability of crafting a magical spirit with stealth skills!
This kind of magical spirit is undoubtedly what the little magisters who lack the countering measures are most afraid of.
At the rate the number of magic cards is increasing, it's likely that before halloween, first-year students would be eligible to join the dueling club.
Participating in dueling competitions is a formal way to get more credits.
Dark is already preparing for this.
He hoped to have at least one second ladder (4-6 stars) magical spirit card before that.
Although the use of [Lust Ⅲ] could make Eevee evolve into a four-star Umbreon, the "disobedience" was too fatal, making it impossible to use in a regular game.
Sure enough, even though it is the deadly sin of the "goddess", it is not better than his own.
Dark stepped into a material store.
This material store called [Wind Traveller] is the most popular store among the younger students on Traveller Street.
Students in the first two years do not have enough credits, so they need this kind of inexpensive store.
Dark looked at the dried lizards, dried mice, dried centipedes, dried scorpions… feeling like a witch.
Some of these ordinary materials required only a few credits, and the most expensive ones did not exceed 100 credits.
He thought for a while, and finally bought a black tortoise shell that was hundred years old, and bought some fragments of magical armor.
Whether he would use them is another matter.
Under the premise that Umbreon can not be summoned, he needed a magical spirit card to act as a meat shield to form some tactic.
For example, Robert's [Phantom magic beast: Castle] was a good one.
→It would be great if it had more stars.
Then he weirdly got a flower card from the owner of Wind Traveller, which was given when anyone spent over 100 credits.
It seems that……
The shops on Traveller Street are giving out flower cards again?
Although Dark didn't know the reason, this is undoubtedly great news.
Dark immediately became motivated, and his enthusiasm for shopping increased.
Candy shop, flower shop, jewelry shop, clothing shop...
He had visited almost half of the shops on Traveller Street before he knew it.
Dark looked at the eight free flower cards in his hand and couldn't help feeling overjoyed.
As the sun set, red clouds covered the sky.
Colorful lights illuminated the Traveller Street.
Dark stopped in front of an antique shop, his eyes were firmly drawn by an antique on the stall, and he couldn't turn away anymore.
He had seen the appearance of the antique from a book when he was looking for ways to restrain the seven deadly sins.
→The Hook of Destiny!
Legend has it that in the very ancient era, a god would drop a fishing line from the sky, with a hook of destiny hanging on the fishing line.
God was an angler, and humans were fish, and the human being caught by the hook would be taken to heaven.
Although the last line in the book says: once the soul was hooked away, naturally the soul would go to heaven.
Anyway, Dark had an impression of the hook.
Except for the rust stains, the shape of this hook was exactly the same as that recorded in the book.
Of course, there are many similar imitations in this kind of antiquities store, and it is impossible to obtain one just by relying on the little knowledge in the book.
He just felt that this thing is very valuable even if it is an imitation.
"Boy, what do you like?"
A wrinkled old man walked out of the dim antiquities store, looking very kind.

When I read this paragraph, I suddenly remember one of the episodes in SpongeBob cartoon. Where SpongeBob and Patrick play with the hooks
