The next morning, Furina assigned Cissia a rather simple task.
That was to go harvest the medicinal herbs grown in the basement on schedule.
She had already estimated in advance how much age of medicinal herbs could be harvested after planting for a few hours.
As long as it wasn’t far off, there would be no problem.
Moreover, there was no need to do a lot of work all at once, so Cissia, this little silly snake, was also happy and at ease.
As for our Furina, she was naturally studying this so-called Magician’s Journal.
Sitting on the lounge chair behind the bar counter, Furina wore the Analytical Monocle and opened the phone.
In an instant, a strange pale purple energy emanated, the book pages flipped rapidly, and finally stopped on the last page, this page had a rather strange point.
It was the displayed Identity Card.
It was similar to the Tarot card style, with a man dressed in a sharp suit on it, the man holding a cane, wearing a top hat and slightly bending his waist to bow to everyone.
And from that polite bow, streamers and small balls of the like gushed out.
[Magician’s Identity Card: Jonyat’s lifelong accumulation of magic tricks and magical techniques are converged here.
As the world’s most perfect magician, one should use magic to demonstrate one’s skills.] [Equip this Identity Card?
Yes/No] Furina nodded.
She was indeed very curious about magic.
After all, no one had given her a Vision when she came here, and she didn’t have the powers of the Hydro Archon, so she had arrived empty-handed.
Although wearing it in the shop would definitely be safe, she had finally come to a fresh new place, so how could she not go out and explore?
As she thought, Furina once again entered the mysterious little theater in her mind.
She saw a white-haired cat girl floating in mid-air, facing an expanding Hollow, facing the Ethereal…
With a wave of her hand, countless magic circles appeared, and all sorts of cool and mind-blowing magic blasted the Ethereal into oblivion and caused the Hollow to shrink.
Then everyone looked at her with admiration and praised her sincerely.
“Grand Magician Furina!
Grand Magician Furina!
Grand Magician Furina…” “Hehe…
ehehe~ Good!
Equip—” After giggling foolishly for a long time, Furina shook her head and equipped the Identity Card.
In an instant, a faint blue energy enveloped the Magician’s Identity Card.
It slowly floated out of the book pages, spun in front of Furina, and then suddenly shot into her chest with a burst of speed.
“Eh~ What’s happening?
Wait a minute!
How did it drill into my body!” A colorless magic circle unfolded from Furina’s chest, spinning and radiating light.
Faint energy converged, gradually filling the colorless magic circle and turning it into a water-blue hue.
A mysterious warm current flowed through every limb and bone in her body.
Furina couldn’t help but slump back into the lounge chair, slowly closing her eyes as she began to savor this warmth.
As the magic circle dissipated, it transformed into mana that merged into Furina’s top hat and black-and-white gloves.
She slowly opened her eyes.
Her raindrop-shaped heterochromatic pupils reflected the pattern of the magic circle, which slowly faded away as she blinked.
“Is that it…
I feel…
Hiss~” Just as she thought it was over, Furina was about to sit up and properly sense it, but in the next instant, a massive amount of memory fragments flooded her mind.
They covered the experiences of many Jonyat magicians, as well as—magic tricks~!
By the time Furina had mostly digested them, nearly an hour had passed.
Drenched in sweat, she slowly sat up and adjusted her breathing.
After another interval, Furina slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and stood up.
Her entire body felt light, yet brimming with a sense of power.
Lifting her hand clad in a black glove, she froze for a moment, then unconsciously snapped her fingers the next second.
Snap~ A burst of sparkling special effects flashed for a moment, and a vibrant red rose appeared in her hand.
Even Furina herself found this scene novel.
She flipped her palm over again, and the red rose vanished, replaced by a lollipop.
She tore open the wrapper and popped the candy into her mouth.
A sweet, honey peach flavor.
It was a real lollipop— “Amazing, haha…
Is this what it’s like to interpret magic tricks with magic?” After all, magic tricks were fundamentally about deceiving the audience’s eyes to achieve the desired effect, and even the most sophisticated tricks would always have some suspicious point, but now…
Furina stepped and skipped out from behind the bar, arriving at the center of the hall.
She took off her small blue top hat, and her white-gloved hand slowly reached into it, grabbing something casually.
“Whoosh~” A little white pigeon flapped its wings and appeared in Furina’s hand.
It was very obedient, and Furina could even direct it to do a few things.
For example~ “Bring me the Wish Coin on the bar~” With a gentle wave, the little white pigeon flapped its wings and flew to the bar.
After landing, it reached out its small beak, picked up the Wish Coin, and returned to Furina’s hand.
Cradling the white pigeon in one hand and setting her top hat back on her head with the other, she gestured for the bird to place the Wish Coin into her hand.
Then, with a single thought, the pigeon’s snowy white feathers fluttered as it transformed into a freely controllable stream of water.
The hand in the black glove casually snapped its fingers.
Snap~ The water gathered into a sphere and vanished into thin air.
“Haha…
This is so much fun~ From now on, I am New Eridu’s greatest magician!
And its greatest stage magician too~ Hahaha…” Furina spread her arms slightly, bowed elegantly to the empty air, and then burst into triumphant laughter with her hands on her hips.
Just then, the shop door was suddenly pushed open, and Blonde Snek’s face was flushed with excitement.
“Manager Furina!
Quick, look—I brought a customer~!!!
Uh…” Holding a paper bag of pastries in one hand and pointing behind her with the other, Cissia’s words trailed off as she froze mid-sentence.
Watching Furina laugh like a madwoman with her hands on her hips.
“Ah, Cissia, you’re back~ What!
A customer?
Quick, bring them in—” “Ah, this, um, Furina, are you…
are you okay?” “Ahem, ahem, how could I be crazy!” Coughing dryly twice, Furina looked behind Cissia.
A pink-haired girl with a proud bust walked in, carrying a white-short-haired woman in a white combat uniform on her back.
“Seriously, are you sure your Serendipity Shop can treat her injuries?
Don’t waste my time.
If not, I’ll find another place right now!” “Right, right!
This is our Manager.
Go talk to her, Nicole~” Entering the shop, Nicole first took a glance at the decor before fixing her gaze on the white-haired cat girl in the blue and black formal dress.
Although she had been laughing like a fool just now, making her a bit suspicious, for now, Furina’s aura and overall feel were those of an elegant and noble upper-class person.
“I found this child by accident while I was looking for treasure.
Seeing she was still breathing, I rushed her over.
I can tell she’s on the verge of death, do you have any way to save her, Manager?” Time to put on a show, go for it, Furina— “Rest assured~ Leave it to me…” With a casual wave of her hand, Furina brought the distant round table drifting in front of her, then snapped her fingers.
Nicole felt the weight on her back vanish.
The short-haired white-haired girl was lifted by an unknown force and placed gently on the round table.
This sequence of actions left Nicole stunned, and even Cissia, who was eating cake in the background, looked over with her mouth wide open.
“So, so amazing, Manager, is this your power?” “Hmph…
Naturally~” Clapping her hands together, two bottles of Life Recovery Potion floated over from the shelf.
Furina casually opened one and poured it onto the white-haired girl’s neck.
There was yet another gruesome gash, still continuously oozing blood.
The next second, as the recovery potion covered the wound, a faint, greenish-blue light flickered, and the gruesome gash actually began to slowly heal.
Anby…
Hmm~ I never expected her to have just been picked up by Nicole…
I see~ That means Twiggy should be in a similar situation, either lying in the wild or having been picked up and sent to the black market, likely not yet sold…
Seeing that Anby’s complexion had improved slightly, Furina looked at Nicole beside her.
“Your name?” “Ah, oh, I’m Nicole, the boss of the Cunning Hares…” “Come here…
pry her lips open, to ensure her safety, she needs to drink an internally administered potion.” Nodding, Nicole wiped her hands before stepping forward and gently prying open Anby’s lips.
Furina poured the Recovery Potion into her mouth and slightly tilted her head, allowing the potion to be swallowed smoothly.
