Chapter 135: It's All Amon's Fault
After delegating the task to Klein, Alice decided to check her mailbox, which she hadn't cleared for several days.
...It's all Amon's fault!
An invitation from Viscount Glaint... Excellent, there would be new ice cream to enjoy. He was quite a nice person.
The Bandit "Black Emperor"... The Bandit "Black Emperor"... The Bandit "Black Emperor"... Damn it, don't these newspapers have anything else to write about?
Evelyn... Indeed, she hadn't seen her for a few days. Fortunately, Evelyn didn't come to greet her when Amon was around, otherwise...
Bernadette.
Two letters from Bernadette lay in the mailbox. The first one contained only a simple question: "Is the Bandit 'Black Emperor' one of your people?"
Ah, of course she would think that... Alice nodded and opened the second letter: "The messenger dares not approach you. There seems to be a dangerous presence around you."
...It's all Amon's fault!
Alice began to ponder her response with a headache.
First, the letter to Bernadette definitely couldn't be as provocative as the one she wrote to Amon.
Considering Amon's behavior over the past few days and Song Shu's description, if she did that, Amon might not be able to do much to her. At most... at most he might run over from the Forsaken Land of the Gods and force her to drink that "Provocateur" potion!
Oh, she regretted not splashing the "Provocateur" potion on the painting earlier... though she wasn't sure if that would have damaged it.
Speaking of which, could she sell this potion?
Alice thoughtfully eyed the potion bottle, a dangerous idea suddenly forming in her mind.
However, the pressing matter at hand was to finish this letter.
After a bout of random thoughts, Alice looked at the blank paper before her and let out a long sigh.
Then, she picked up her pen and wrote two lines:
"You have seen him.
"Now he's gone."
...Indeed, a letter that says nothing is the easiest to write.
After pondering for a while, Alice added one more sentence to the letter: "Have you heard of the King of Angels?"
Then, without hesitation, Alice decided to send the letter to Bernadette as it was. She began to prepare the ritual to summon the messenger:
"Formless creature roaming the upper realm,
"Strange spirit friendly to humans,
"Messenger belonging solely to Bernadette Gustave..."
Alice, who had hoped to catch a glimpse of the so-called "messenger," saw nothing. She only sensed the room's atmosphere turning cold for a moment, and then the envelope on the desk vanished.
But this only piqued her curiosity.
"That's so cool, I want a messenger like that too..."
Alice's eyes sparkled with excitement.
However, having been specifically warned not to summon a messenger on her own, Alice didn't immediately set up a ritual to try it out. Instead, she made a mental note of it.
Next was Evelyn's letter.
This wasn't really a letter, but rather...
After receiving Evelyn's last gift, Alice had folded a paper model of a mobile phone for Evelyn and used simple drawings to introduce her to the chat interface of QQ on phones...
Yes, now they were drawing a hand-drawn QQ chat interface on paper and exchanging messages.
Due to Amon's presence, Alice hadn't replied to messages for several days. As soon as she opened it, she knew she was in trouble—it was truly fortunate that Evelyn hadn't come to find her during those days. Really, she was so relieved.
In the Time Angel's impression, she could be a seemingly pleasant cat by the roadside, occasionally showing her non-threatening claws, but she must never show that she cherishes or cares about anything.
Otherwise, threatening her by destroying those things, watching her beg, pretending to agree with her, enjoying her joy before shattering it into despair—that's what the other party would do.
...As for why?
Of course, it's because...
"I like doing that too," Alice smirked, chuckling softly.
She was the one who would initially feel apologetic after blurting something out, worried about offending others.
She was the one who would later apologize but essentially feel no remorse.
And now, after Amon's appearance, she was the one who had been alerted, warning herself never to become someone like Amon.
Be it Shen Yinghuan or that still nameless being coddled by Will Auceptin, they were all influencing her, yet none of them were her.
Perhaps there were others who had left their mark on her as well...
But just as she had told Alger, she genuinely loved the feeling of existing as Alice Kingsley. She loved this name, this identity, and every person she had met as Alice Kingsley.
So, she was Alice Kingsley, and only Alice Kingsley.
...It's all Amon's fault!
After dropping the silly little game with Evelyn into Evelyn's mailbox, Alice finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to study the major concern on her mind.
"...Hey, you won't let me make money so quickly, will you?" Alice glared at the "Money-making Accessory" and asked.
The "Money-making Accessory" didn't respond. Of course, this thing couldn't possibly have any response—it didn't have the characteristic of being alive, at least not yet.
Alice pondered for a moment, then reached out from behind to flip the "Money-making Accessory" over, pretending it was nodding.
Having done this, she solemnly said to the Money-making Accessory, "I'll take that as a yes. Listen carefully, you must not cause any trouble before I sell you!"
No one spoke, and of course, the "Money-making Accessory" didn't speak either.
Alice silently picked up the "Money-making Accessory" and put it back on.
It wasn't until evening that Alice received Miss "Magician's" spiritual world experiences.
This notebook came from an ancestor of the Abraham family, who recorded various strange encounters during his travels in the spirit world.
As she read this notebook, Alice was surprised to find herself feeling a bit irritated by these words that held no supernatural power.
It seems the things described in this notebook are quite extraordinary...
Alice sighed and continued reading.
In the first chapter, the notebook described the light in the spirit world, believing that the seven rays of pure light of different colors contained infinite knowledge of different domains, and travelers could see them covering the heights no matter where they were in the spirit world.
"Wow," Alice exclaimed, "a rainbow!"
She continued reading with great interest.
These seven miraculous rays of light were alive, just like the various spirits wandering in that place, they were alive...
Wow, living rainbows!
Oh, the spirit world sounds like fun... No, no, Alice, control yourself!
...It's all Amon's fault!
