Warlock Apprentice

Chapter 3112: Chapter 3113: The Unwritten Letter

After listening to Glaipnir’s explanation, Angel seemed to understand why Laplace would give up using the Rainbow Sprite as the Temporal Body... Even daring to provoke a Legendary Wizard, who knows what other big troubles might arise after becoming the Temporal Body.

”If this is the case, manifesting this Rainbow Sprite might be a bit tricky?” Angel murmured softly. He originally planned to manifest the Rainbow Sprite, but now it seems like he needs to reconsider?

Glaipnir thought for a moment and said, ”Putting aside appearances, Nafidote is quite good in other aspects.”

”Nafidote? Is that the name of the Rainbow Sprite?”

Glaipnir nodded, ”Yes, apparently the Empress of Elves bestowed this name upon Nafidote, and in ancient Elf proverbs, ’Nafi’ means the most beautiful crown, while ’dote’ refers to the pinnacle of the rainbow.”

Combined, it means the most beautiful crown at the pinnacle of the rainbow.

”...Perhaps because of this, she developed a cognitive bias from a young age.”

——Even the Elf Empress thinks I’m the most beautiful crown, so I must be more beautiful than any other life form.

”In any case, Nafidote doesn’t quite fit in the outside world. If she’s only in the Crystal Origin of Dreams, then I think it’s fine; after all, no one is there to compete with her beauty.” Glaipnir paused, ”Besides, the conditions you mentioned for Nafidote’s debut aren’t difficult to meet; it will happen sooner or later.”

Simply speaking, Nafidote might not be able to show off in the outside world, but in Crystal Origin of Dreams, it’s fine, since this is the world created by Angel. Moreover, she will eventually come, earlier is better than later.

”Another point is, in Elf legends, ’Elf Forest’ is the birthplace of Elves. According to Elf literature, there are endless fruits there, streams that flow with nectar, and springs that make you light as a swallow when you smell them...” Glaipnir continued, ”Legends tend to exaggerate, so they can’t be entirely believed. But if this Elf Forest possesses even ten percent of that Elf Forest, it could provide great convenience to new residents.”

So, from every angle, Glaipnir supports the debut of the Rainbow Sprite.

Angel thought about it, and also felt it was worth a try.

The narcissism issue... currently, it’s not a big problem in Crystal Origin of Dreams.

It might cause some controversy in the future, but those are matters for the future, and Angel believes that by the time comes, he should have digested the Fairyland Authority and will be able to limit these NPCs, so there’s no need to worry too much.

With this in mind, Angel agreed to manifest the Rainbow Sprite.

However, it’s not enough for him to agree; they also need the right time and place, and those matters were taken on by Glaipnir.

In Glaipnir’s words, ”Actually, I do quite like this little creature, and besides, I was the one who personally sealed Nafidote’s prospective Temporal Body back then... I can’t help her unseal in reality, so let me witness her debut here.”

Angel naturally didn’t refuse and quickly started discussing the location of the ”New Community Location” with Glaipnir.

Previously, Angel arranged Rabbit Town underground because he thought there might not be many Fairyland instances below... but now, with Silver Coral Island’s appearance, he’s been proven wrong.

It’s clear now that Fairyland instances won’t be confined to the ground or underground, so the new community location doesn’t have to be underground this time.

Moreover, one of the conditions for the Rainbow Sprite’s debut is a surface gathering point.

Ultimately, they decided to place the new community above Rabbit Town... the reason was simple: it was beneficial for development.

Currently, Crystal Origin of Dreams lacks resources, and Silver Coral Island is just one resource point; Elf Forest is likely to be another resource-producing area, and it’s better to gather resources than to have them scattered.

Also, this time, building Rainbow Town—the name of the surface town—doesn’t require Angel to move buildings from the outside. Rabbit Town can entirely mine resources from Silver Coral Island to construct a town outside.

As for new residents of Rainbow Town, they can initially reside in Rabbit Mansion and then move outside in the future.

Though building the town might be slower compared to moving buildings directly from the outside, it’s a necessary step for new residents in Crystal Origin of Dreams. Just like the residents of Originheart City, Angel only handles the initial planning, and then leaves them to develop on their own.

The fact proves that even without Angel’s help, Originheart City is thriving, with all positions now occupied by residents of Originheart City.

Crystal Origin never needs to follow the path of Wilderness of Dreams, but in any world, new residents must learn independence.

Place and people are already preliminarily considered, while time... there’s no need to worry about that; it will come.

The only concern now is what the threshold for entering Elf Forest will be?

Silver Coral Island’s entry threshold is considered ”kind-hearted” by the Treasure Mermaid.

What will be the entry threshold for Elf Forest?

Angel looked curiously at Glaipnir and Laplace, as creators, they should have some guess about the Rainbow Sprite’s threshold, right?

Glaipnir pondered for a while and said, ”Perhaps related to beauty and ugliness?”

In simple terms, the entry threshold might be related to the degree of good looks. Maybe beautiful people can enter, or maybe ugly ones can enter; of course, the judgment standard of beauty and ugliness is determined by the Rainbow Sprite.

”If it’s really decided by the degree of beauty and ugliness, wouldn’t that easily provoke conflicts...” Angel murmured, especially among beauty-loving women.

At this point, Laplace, who had been silent, spoke, ”I think it’s unrelated to beauty and ugliness.”

Angel curiously looked at Laplace.

Laplace said, ”Nafidote already considers herself as the most beautiful being; no matter who enters Elf Forest, they won’t be better looking than her.”

”Using beauty and ugliness as evaluation criteria means admitting someone else has ’beauty,’ which is impossible with Nafidote’s personality.”

Angel thought about it and agreed. Nafidote offended the Legendary Witch because she refused to admit the other’s beauty. In her eyes, probably everyone else is ugly.

Since ”ugly views all the same,” why bother differentiating who is slightly ugly and who is uglier?

”Then what do you think the threshold for Elf Forest is?” Angel asked.

Laplace didn’t provide a direct answer and merely said, ”As long as you acknowledge Nafidote as the most beautiful being, she’s easy to talk to.”

Angel asked, ”So you mean, as long as you praise her appearance, you can enter Elf Forest?”

Laplace replied, ”Just a guess.”

If it’s really only about praising her appearance, the threshold for Elf Forest is even lower than Silver Coral Island... Although Laplace said it’s just a guess, Angel thinks as a creator, Laplace should have some inspiration, and the threshold is likely this.

If true, then the arrival of Elf Forest is indeed a great event, even serving as a home base for future emigration.

At this moment, Angel felt more anticipation for the Rainbow Sprite’s debut.

While they discussed passionately, on the other side, Luigi in the Fairyland instance suddenly sat upright, took a deep breath while holding the harp in his hands.

”It seems a new round of performance is about to start.” Glaipnir pointed to the Illusionary Realm broadcast and reminded.

Angel glanced at the situation within the instance and timely displayed segments of intercepted information stream in the broadcast.

”Special Dreamland ’Uriel’s Choice’ is about to start the main quest——please use the instrument in your hands to untangle the knot in Uriel’s heart.”

”Failure will reload the main quest.”

”There is no limit to the number of times the main quest can be loaded, but it cannot be entered into the attic until the main quest is completed.”

”Only after completing all main quests can you leave the current dreamscape.”

With the appearance of the information flow, time inside the attic seemed to enter a reverse state. The middle-aged man, Uriel, who was sitting at the piano, disappeared.

Until the prompt ”Main quest begins loading” appeared, the attic door was pushed open, and the middle-aged man reappeared before them.

Uriel, frowning tightly, sighed with a worried expression and sat down at the piano. He silently took out a letter from a secret compartment under the piano after a minute.

The envelope was sealed, and its contents were invisible.

Uriel stroked the heart-shaped wax seal on the surface of the envelope, his expression extremely conflicted.

”Eh, there’s this phase before the main quest begins?” Angel was taken aback, ”I didn’t notice it before.”

Glaipnir: ”It seems this letter is the core element of this instance? Perhaps, it’s also the reason behind Uriel’s dilemma?”

This fairyland duplication is named ”Uriel’s Choice,” and earlier they didn’t know what it meant, only speculating that Uriel was perhaps at a major decision crossroads, and challengers needed to help Uriel make a choice.

Now, seeing Uriel pick up the letter with a conflicted face, they immediately guessed that perhaps the content of the letter was the ”choice” Uriel was about to face?

Angel: ”I can further check the content inside the envelope, do you need me to take a look now?”

He was in God’s View and could stretch the angle anytime, just a change of perspective to see the content inside the envelope.

”If you reveal the answer now, there’ll be no anticipation. Luigi wants us to witness his clearance together, so let’s wait.” Glaipnir said.

Angel didn’t mind; whether the suspense remained or not was fine with him. However...

”The prompt from earlier in Wonderland said: ’Only after completing all main quests can you leave the current dreamscape,’ which seems to imply that there might be more than one main quest inside this attic?”

Luigi might not be able to complete the ”music therapy” task, can the subsequent main quests really be completed today?

Laplace: ”Then let’s check the content inside the letter, maybe it can help Luigi in return.”

Since the main quest is for Luigi to help Uriel unblock his mind, it’s for Uriel to make a choice. Knowing the content inside the envelope might help Luigi make a choice.

With Laplace speaking, Glaipnir remained silent, Angel thought for a moment, and then began to manipulate the view, delving inside the envelope.

But when Angel pulled out the contents of the envelope, everyone outside remained silent.

Inside the envelope... there was no letter.

There was only a stream of chaotic transmutation information.

These information streams couldn’t be seen with the naked eye, but as an indirect Controller of the Wonderland of Dreams, Angel could capture the content of the information streams.

He presented the content of the information streams using the fairyland prompt, in the Illusionary Realm live broadcast room.

”Reward information generating...”

Yes, this letter is very likely one of Luigi’s clearance rewards.

Moreover, through this simple stream of information, it can be determined: the reward information is in an ”undetermined” chaotic state.

Only when Luigi clears the instance and helps Uriel unblock his mind, making a choice, might this information generate.

And there’s a high probability that the generated information is related to Luigi’s clearance process.

”Looks like we can’t help Luigi now, he can only rely on himself.” Glaipnir said blandly.

Unable to peek into the envelope content, Angel relocked the live broadcast screen onto the two main characters on the scene.

Uriel stroked the envelope for a long time and ultimately sighed, putting the envelope back into the secret compartment of the piano.

Next, Uriel opened the piano lid, his fingers restlessly playing on the piano keys.

At this point, they hadn’t truly entered the main quest, until Uriel’s chaotic playing gradually reached a certain stable state, the main quest finally began.

Outside the attic, Luigi was well prepared; he changed into a comfortable position and gently plucked the harp strings along with Uriel’s chaotic notes.

The notes of the piano and harp, in their movements, gradually converged...

The piano notes, though chaotic, perfectly matched Uriel’s inner confused and troubled emotions. Just by listening, one’s heart felt grabbed, as if reaching a kind of empathy with Uriel.

Luigi’s harp notes, on the other hand, transformed into a gurgling stream amidst the chaotic piano sound, continuously nourishing Uriel’s heart.

This nourishment was effective.

Even the laymen, Laplace and Glaipnir, could hear the faint changes in Uriel’s chaotic piano notes.

Before, it was a groundless chaos, now it’s chaos within order.

This order was precisely constructed by Luigi’s music. And as time passed, this sense of order grew stronger.

Even Uriel’s expression gradually eased from distress to tranquility.

Just this scene shows that Luigi’s music took effect.

Laplace recalled, a few days ago during Luigi and Uriel’s duet, Luigi was completely led by Uriel, even as he repeatedly tried and worked hard, but ultimately achieved minimal results.

But now, Luigi’s performance was vastly different from back then.

It showed that Jon’s Sea of Questions Tactic was indeed very useful.

Laplace knew Uriel was a piano master, and Jon could use the Sea of Questions Tactic to help Luigi turn failure around, proving Jon’s musical attainments were definitely no less than Uriel’s.

Moreover, Jon also wrote the ”Book of Fishing,” its contents were quite impressive.

She also remembered, even the Mother Tree Interlinker was Jon as the lead developer...

It seems this Jon is truly multi-talented.

Laplace now somewhat understood why Angel appeared so different from other humans in her eyes, being so exceptional and brilliant. Having such a teacher might be one of the reasons.
