Chapter 91 - Dragon Purity(1)
Maybe? There is no harm in trying, right? Desmond thought while looking at the slave beside him with a curious gaze. Meanwhile, the slave just stared straight because she was still hypnotized.
…
After several minutes, Desmond looked down, where the hole was made now that there was an elf lying there.
"This principle may be the same; after all, if the food is put in the refrigerator, won't that slow down the food from rotting, right?"
As he nodded, Desmond began to chant, ice begins formed, re-closed the hole, and was then camouflaged by some dirt.
But before that, Desmond saw something different; right before he camouflaged the hole with a speck of dirt, he saw that the slave had a scared expression.
This left Desmond dumbfounded. Wasn't this elf was hypnotized? He thought as he continued sweeping the dirt using his foot to see the elf's shocked expression.
"Ah… it's already past 1 day, huh," Desmond muttered. If it weren't for the moon's reflection on the ice, Desmond might have been confused as well as he remembered that he only came to this place at midnight.
Desmond then checked the grass around him, making sure there no fire was still lit up; after feeling that everything was safe, he activated his custom spell and disappeared.
...
This time Desmond was no longer rushed like before; with his increased energy capacity, he could maintain this state for more than 20 minutes.
The atmosphere inside the house is not as gloomy as Grimm's house, although there is only a little lighting because technology is still limited, only candles are still lit up.
He looked at the candles and found a small magic crystal stuck to each of them.
"Magic Crystal, huh ... I used to play with that a lot in the past, but lately, I have a lot of things to take care of..."
Usually, Desmond's maids replace the magic crystals in each piece of equipment if the magic crystal's energy runs out. It could be said that Desmond's maid ability is very reliable both in managing the house and even in terms of fighting.
Since Desmond didn't use the kitchen's back door this time, he headed for the kitchen, the place where Alice often made ice cream. Then he headed for the area in front of the stairs where the maids often gathered and arrived on the 2nd floor.
While walking, memories of his family began to emerge one by one. Alice often ran on the stairs, and the maids chased her, where his parents often quarreled in front of their room and finally, his memories came to an incident where Alice was crying, making all the maids panic.
"Time has passed, and I have started to forget the warmth of the family in my old world." While saying that, there was sadness in Desmond's eyes.
Desmond stopped right in front of his room; he saw his room's door, which was twice as tall as him with random motives. He took a breath and then opened the door to his room.
…
In Desmond's room, it was seen that the plates and glasses that Desmond used were still on the small table near the window, indicating that the maid had indeed fallen asleep.
Using only the lighting from the hanging candlelight above his bed, Desmond checked his room's atmosphere. If it weren't for the moonlight's addition that entered through the window, Desmond's room might have looked scary.
This also applies to the other rooms, not to mention that Alice and Desmond's parents are not home.
While taking off his clothes, Desmond slowly walked towards his bed, and he accidentally stood right in the mirror across to his bed. He saw his appearance wearing a coat with a rabbit mask that covered the top of his face.
Desmond movements froze when he saw this. He continued to stare at his reflection in the mirror, with the buttons on his shirt slightly ajar, revealing his muscular build.
".… "Desmond.
If it weren't for the fox mask he was wearing, this sight would probably look very hot for a girl.
Shit…. So at the auction, my appearance was like this ?! Hold on ... didn't I order the maid to un -. Desmond patted his forehead. I'm stupid, I forgot to tell the maid which type of mask I wanted.
Desmond suddenly remembered Laura's blushing expression, embarrassed to stare at him.
It is over…. Now I understand why she is like that.
Desmond threw himself on the bed while throwing his mask on the side of the bed.
On the bed, Desmond's body was facing the bed, covering his face. While lying down, there was also the sound of his taking a deep breath.
Having managed to calm himself down, Desmond turned to look at the hanging candle above his bed.
"Ugh ... " Desmond grabbed his heart and felt that his heart was beating hard. The mixed feeling between excitement and shame blended in his heart making him flustered." It must be because I'm too excited for tomorrow's experiment. " He thought while trying to forget the shameful memories and closing his eyes to concentrate.
At that moment, the night wind entered Desmond's room through the open window of his room, and it came into contact with his body.
Instantly Desmond opened his eyes and felt that his body was shivering. He stood and saw that the window was still open with the moonlight shining on his wooden floor.
After closing the windows and curtains in his room, Desmond returned to lying on the bed, this time he was looking at the ceiling of his room and trying to close his eyes again.
A transparent screen appeared in his mind, showing several videos containing from his parent's battle to his battle in the guild.
Play all of that.
While watching the videos, Desmond tries to divide concentration for meditation. A cricket noise begins to be heard, along with the sound of an owl passing through the air.
Even Desmond could tell what the animals were up to. His unique energy was scattered all over the corner of the house, he could hear breathing sounds from his maids and even their voices snoring.
Desmond was shocked and opened his eyes again, causing all the sounds to disappear.
Has this happened before?
Instantly the system voice rang, answering the question.
[ System Conclusion: According to the book the host reads, the system finds that if a person has reached class, 2nd wizard, all their senses will be enhanced by spreading unique energy to the surrounding area.
It is also one of the differences between the 1st class wizard with 2nd class wizard; this information is found on page 127, the anonymous researcher's book.
]
Damn, the existence of this system is cheating.
Right after Desmond thought like that, many questions about the system's existence began to appear in his mind.
Waitt ... so far, I was not aware of the most crucial question. Who made me incarnate? and why?
Desmond then thought of all the novels he had read where the novel's 'system' was very different from the system.
And after all, why is there no shop feature, etc., that can make me instantly strong like other novels?
The more Desmond thinks about it, the more questions about the system in his head, like a plant that will grow, its roots will branch everywhere.
All these questions made his head hurt a little; he wanted to know for sure about his existence in this world. What if he was just a toy for a god for entertainment?
These ideas made him aware of something ...
Okay, just forget it. I will see to what extent this system will help me throughout my life.
Leaving aside the system problem, this time, his mind began to focus on the 'energy' that was said to spread by the system. Desmond tried to close his eyes once again, to feel the same way.
And sure enough ...
The same feeling as Desmond could even see the movement of an ant that was carrying water to its nest, the candle that was always flickering due to the gust of wind, and also the sound of breathing from its maids.
Creepy… what if I don't close my eyes?
And at that moment, if he looked from the outside, it might look ridiculous. This time Desmond was meditating while lying on the bed, but his eyes open were bulging as if they wanted to get out.
After a few seconds, Desmond stopped his actions. He sighed and then sat down on his bed.
Sigh, this isn't working. Not even energy flows into my body.
It seems this enough; it's wasting my time.
Desmond shook his head and lay back down with his eyes closed.
…
On a sunny morning, the sound birds chirp happily. Several maids at Desmond's house do activities such as sweeping the yard, cleaning the corridors, and washing dishes.
In Desmond's room, it was seen that Desmond was still in the same position as the sunlight pierced the curtains and pierced his eyes.
Although the morning sunshine is very good for the skin because it contains high vitamin D, Desmond, who is sleeping, does the opposite.
His body automatically moves away from the sun and looks for the part of his bed that is not exposed to the light.
Just as Desmond changed positions, there was a sound of screeching wood from a distance. According to the person who designed this house, he said that wood is a good floor for a noble house.
Besides being easy to clean, wood can also give a different sensation to the clay used in royal buildings.
But Desmond's opinion was different on this; he found the opposite. Using wood as a flooring material is very annoying, not to mention if animals are perching on the wood's sidelines.
