Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

At the same time, Joyce came again to the Four Seasons Café on Enmat Street.

It was still early, and there were only a few scattered tables of customers in the coffee shop. He chose a seat by the window and sat down, and asked for a cup of coffee from the walking waiter.

Although the two did not agree on any secret codes for meeting, Joyce believed that a fortuneteller would not find the wrong person.

Looking out the window casually, among the pedestrians, there are employees rushing to work with briefcases, and there are short newspaper sellers who are waving newspapers and shouting constantly...

There is no subway in Bayam, and trams have not been popularized. It is not convenient for people to travel, but it also brings fresh air and blue sky to the city, which cannot be said to be good or bad.

No wonder the prospect of the bicycle industry is very bright. Should we grab Klein's investment opportunity... Forget it, let's leave some food for the panda... I'm not short of money, Joyce thought wildly.

As he watched the others, Katrin watched Joyce.

As a "Seer", she recognized Joyce at the first sight. He was the strange guy who foretold the future but got contradictory results.

It turned out that he was also an Extraordinary.

This is the second meeting this week, um, if counting the gathering, it should be the third time... This degree of coincidence is very strange in the eyes of the "Seer".

What's even more strange is that, as a guy with the ability to obtain extraordinary characteristics, he would be interested in the basics of mysticism, which is unreasonable.

Taking out a necklace made of star crystals, Katrin started divination:

"I should see him."

"I should see him."

…………

After seven times in a row, the crystal turns clockwise, neither fast nor slow.

This means that I should go to see him... This result made her feel a lot more relieved, and thinking that she was not unprepared, she slowly regained a lot of courage and walked into the Four Seasons Cafe.

"Meet you again, classmate 'Seer'."

Joyce's frankness shattered most of the confidence that Catherine had just mentioned. She suddenly felt a sudden in her heart and asked:

"You know it's me?"

Joyce smiled: "Don't be nervous, I have no malicious intentions."

"After seeing the meeting place you wrote down, I already had some guesses, and I didn't know for sure until I sat here."

"Why?" Katrin asked.

Joyce pointed out the window:

"Because your 'House of Divination' is not open today."

It turned out to be the case, and Katrin was convinced of this explanation, and said vigilantly: "Well, your observation skills are very good."

"You really have the Extraordinary characteristics of 'clown'?"

Faced with doubts, Joyce took out an iron box from his coat pocket, put it on the table and pressed it with his hands:

"As a 'Seer', your spirituality should be able to tell you the answer."

Katrin's gaze had already been fixed on the box, and she nodded hastily.

Looking away with difficulty, she took out a notebook from her arms, rubbed it lovingly, pushed it to Joyce and said:

"This is a note left by a mid-sequence Extraordinary. It contains a lot of mystic knowledge and basic ritual magic, which is enough for a new Extraordinary to become a senior."

After paying the money and delivering the goods, Katrin opened the box and saw the Extraordinary characteristics inside, confirmed its authenticity through divination, and finally showed a happy smile.

Joyce flipped through his notes, noticed that there was a broken page at the beginning, frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

Katrin put away her Extraordinary characteristics and hurriedly explained:

"The identity of the owner of the note was written on those two pages, which I tore off. It doesn't matter because he has passed away."

Doesn't matter? Then why are you tearing it up!

In the process of flipping through the notes, Joyce found that the content recorded in it is indeed rich, but it lacks the description of the law of conservation of Extraordinary characteristics and the method of acting.

According to this woman's performance, she must know this knowledge, but the content in the book is enough to satisfy Joyce, so he didn't bother to worry about it.

"Okay, deal, but..."

But, it's nothing, you don't want to be black and white, right... Catherine's body was tense, her back was leaning on the chair, and her right hand was stretched out under the table.

"But you still need to give me fifteen pounds."

"Why?" Catherine asked confused.

Joyce carefully explained:

"At last week's party, you promised that if I could find clues to the one-horn crystal of the Honakis Gray Goat, you would give me the ring of the Fourth Epoch."

"But I paid for it, so you'll give me back fifteen pounds."

Can it still be like this? Katrin was stunned when she heard that, she looked through her wallet, only found two pounds and a few soli, and then remembered that she was worried about the danger of meeting today, so she put all the money at home, and smiled awkwardly:

"I didn't bring that much money today, can I pay you back next time?"

"Can."

Joyce took a sip of coffee calmly. He just retaliated a little for her tearing up the book, and he didn't really care about the fifteen pounds. Instead, he said:

"However, today's coffee has to be paid for by you."

"Okay, I'll buy it."

Katrin nodded in agreement, and at the same time cursed in her heart: Sure enough, rich people are the most stingy.

"Waiter, I want to add a dessert."

Joyce greeted, successfully seeing a confused look on Katrin's face.

…………

This is a notebook written by an extraordinary person of the "Seer" path.

In addition to the basic common sense of occultism, the most content is strange divination methods and ritual magic, as well as some methods of making spells.

It's a pity that most of them have to pray to the gods... Since the reason for his time travel is unknown, Joyce almost subconsciously rejected the gods. Fortunately, a lot of knowledge in the book not only enriched his basic knowledge, but also provided great support for the subsequent black magic of Sequence Seven. Less thinking, it is worth the money.

At least, now he has learned how to make a spiritual wall...

"Boom boom boom".

There was a knock on the door.

I don't know how it happened, but every time Joyce was reading, someone would knock on the door.

This time it was Harry who came in. Joyce looked at the time and found that it was not time to leave for the dance, so he asked aloud:

"What's up?"

"Outside there is a messenger who claims to be sent by 'Tian Bing', holding a black box in his hand, saying that he has made an appointment with you for today's deal."

Hearing Harry's description, Joyce was very surprised. Could it be that "Balance" has already obtained two kinds of materials? This efficiency is a bit outrageous! But other than that, he couldn't think of a second possibility.

After hesitating for a moment, Joyce came back to his senses: "It's true, how much does he want?"

"Six hundred pounds," Harry replied.

There was a premium, but it was acceptable. Joyce was not surprised and agreed to the deal.

What he didn't know was that Scarface exchanged the two materials from MI9 for a contribution worth 400 pounds, and ordered the "balance" to be sold at a price of 550 pounds. In the end, Joyce paid six hundred pounds.
