Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 279

Chapter 278: Getting to the Past

“It seems that I am not worthy of the title of master.” Thor kept paying attention to the diary and paused before speaking.

But no matter what words flashed through his mind, the diary did not mean to stop him.

This undoubtedly made Thor much tougher.

“Can I ask you a few questions?”

“Of course, but we may not have much time. Master, you can ask me the things you want to know most. As long as I can tell you, I will never lie to you.”

“So you can’t tell me what you lied to?” Thor sneered in his heart, but he didn’t show it on his face.

He asked: “Penny… Are all these things you did in Mofan Town just to catch the nightmare butterfly that turned into a girl?”

“Nightmare butterflies are strange creatures between reality and illusion. They can travel between dreams and reality, and can also change people’s consciousness and cognition. Controlling a nightmare butterfly is also a very attractive thing for formal wizards.”

Kismet changed his voice, “But I’m not chasing her to tame her. The special feature of the nightmare butterfly is not only that it travels through consciousness, but also that it has the ability to see through the past.”

“See through the past?” Thor murmured.

Yes, if there is no ability to understand a person’s past, how can one completely change a person’s perception of himself.

Thinking of Ada, whose real identity is unknown, and the father and son in the story about the Nightmare Butterfly, Thor felt a chill lingering in his heart.

“Master, don’t worry. You have the diary with you. The Nightmare Butterfly cannot break through your past.”

“Is the Nightmare Butterfly dead now?”

Kismet held his chin with one hand, “Well, is that how she described it? It seems that I called her inappropriately, causing the master to misunderstand her.”

“The Nightmare Butterfly is not a human being. She has no humanity. Master, remember not to be fooled by her appearance and behavior.”

Fool?

Thor’s face turned cold, “I know who I am facing.”

Kismet smiled with relief, just like an elder looking at a younger generation.

Thor subconsciously touched his arm, a little unhappy, “What do you mean by me getting in the past?”

Kismet looked into the distance, which should be the direction of Mofan Town, “Originally, I wanted to use the end of many people’s fate to bind the Nightmare Butterfly, and then solve her myself, and take away her magical power – seeing through the past. But…”

Kismet glanced at Thor, his eyes burning as if there was a fire burning, “But the master entered the town at the right time.”

He clasped his hands together, raised the corners of his mouth, and the muscles on his face couldn’t stop shaking, “Not too early, not too late, just right. If it’s earlier, I haven’t come yet, and the Blood Town may hurt you; if it’s later, I have already activated the curse, and you may not be able to touch the Nightmare Butterfly. This is…”

Kismet’s whole body began to tremble slightly, and the expression on his face was gradually distorted with excitement.

“…This is fate!”

Compared with Kismet’s excitement, Thor seemed very calm. He just glanced at his diary with his peripheral vision, thinking: “So the diary told me that I couldn’t go in because the mastermind hadn’t arrived yet. Will Kismet really protect me?”

But Thor soon became alert again, “Calm down, Thor. Before the piglets grow up, the butcher will also worry about their health. Hmm… it doesn’t seem right to describe myself like that.”

Perhaps Thor’s calmness also affected Kismet, and his excitement gradually calmed down.

“I’m sorry, Master.” He gently plucked the strings twice, and the music calmed him down. “In short, because the master is here, after the Nightmare Butterfly died, part of her magic has been contaminated on you. Therefore, the master will have a little ability to see through the past in the future.”

The other party’s words immediately reminded Thor that when he left Mofan Town, his eyes had been burning for a while.

Now thinking about it, it might be affected by the magic of Penny.

Thor tentatively mobilized the mental power around his eyes, and instantly felt that there seemed to be a trace of cold air trying to drill out of his pupils.

It seems that his eyes have indeed changed.

Can I use it to observe Kismet?

The diary did not indicate danger, and Thor was ready to move.

But when Thor looked up at Kismet, he found that there was no one in front of him.

“Master, don’t waste it on me~ After all, you have only obtained a part of the ability to see through the past, and the period of use and the objects of use are limited.” Kismet’s voice came from behind Thor.

“It will be wasted, so why are you hiding?” Thor laughed secretly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth and quickly disappeared. “Just now Kismet suddenly came behind me. Is it the ability of space witchcraft?”

“Master, if you want to use this ability, it’s best to use it on the things that are closest to you and most useful to you.”

Thor was alone in this world when he traveled through time, without blood ties. Although he made two friends in the wizard tower, they maintained a moderate way of getting along with each other and would not easily explore each other’s privacy and past.

Diary?

Thor suddenly thought of this hardcover book that had been with him since he traveled through time.

“Is Kismet suggesting that I use this ability on the diary? Can I use it to see the past of the diary?”

Thor’s fingers curled up little by little.

Kismet seemed to really know the diary.

Who is he?

Recalling several scenes related to Kismet, Thor calmed his mental strength, turned around and faced Kismet again, “Golden pages, those two golden pages were given to me by you?”

Kismet was stunned, “Is that what you call it? Golden pages… a very accurate description.”

His expression was a little hard to describe, but he soon returned to a relaxed smile, “Yes. I accidentally condensed a golden page at Ralph Manor. At that time, I thought it was a pleasant surprise, but now I think it should be the honor of having contact with the owner. It’s a pity that the situation was a bit hurried later, and you returned to the wizard tower before I had time to recognize the owner. I still had a page in my hand at the time, so I asked someone to send it to you.”

“Aren’t you afraid that it will be lost halfway?”

“How could that be? The golden page will naturally rush towards its own destiny.”

If the golden page can really become a part of the diary, then it is definitely a very important thing!

But the way to make golden pages…

“Does it take hundreds of lives to condense each page?”

Kismet pursed his lips. “Unfortunately, the disappearance of life alone cannot produce golden pages. Otherwise, I would rather provoke a war on the continent than stay in a small town and play games with others.”

“Take the page formed in Ralph Manor. Its origin can be traced back to the Blood Rose Family nearly a hundred years ago, which was one of the most prestigious families in the Kerma Empire at that time. A family with such a high status naturally cannot avoid the consumption of human lives, not to mention that most of the outstanding talents of its main family eventually died in the war in the Valley of the Hands. But even so, I still formed this golden page in Ralph Manor decades later. Simple death is not…”

Kismet smiled and lowered his head. “In short, there are many factors that affect whether the golden page can condense. Fate is always like this. It likes to add salt to the wound and likes to suddenly slap you when you are happy. Just like now…”

He suddenly raised his head and looked into the distance.

Thor followed his gaze and saw a small black dot in the sky.

The black spot gradually grew larger, and it seemed to be a giant bird.

Then, the giant bird landed in the direction of Mofan Town.

The current Grand Duke of the Principality of Kema, a second-level official wizard, Kira is here!
