85: Chapter 85 Amy Seeger's Memoir

Seeing this, Amy Seeger immediately seized the opportunity.

She poured all her mana into her staff at once. A flash of white light instantly shattered the darkness, carrying violent thunder as it pierced through Vincent's body.

"Ah!—"

Vincent let out a scream, raising his arms to block the dazzling white light.

His skin began to crack, as if it were being scorched by flames.

Blood sprayed from Vincent's seven orifices simultaneously, and he glared fiercely into Chen Mo's eyes.

"Kid, I will kill you."

The white halo expanded throughout the space, plunging the view into a world of pure white.

Chen Mo watched as the Vincent beside him slowly turned into black smoke and vanished.

[ Vincent: HP-100 ]

[ Vincent: HP-100 ]

[ Vincent: HP-100 ]

Seizing the opportunity, he drew his bone-scraping knife and stabbed it straight into Vincent's forehead.

The skull shattered as the extended bone-scraping knife pierced through the back of his head.

"Oh~ what an elegant gentleman. Although his heart leans toward darkness, his blood is so elegant and delicious."

"Can I have more? Such delicious blood, and it even has the taste of a young girl's blood."

The charming woman's voice echoed in Chen Mo's mind once again, crisp and pleasant, as if silver bells were chiming in his ears.

She sounded like she was in a very good mood.

Then, a new notification popped up in front of Chen Mo.

[ Item: Snake Woman's bone-scraping knife, ID: C138 ]

Chen Mo's thoughts stirred.

Several streams of dark night light surged on the surface of the bone-scraping knife. When the light dissipated...

A wizard's staff, pitch black all over with a pink agate embedded in the handle, was held in his hand.

[ Item: fallen angel (Copy), ID: C138 ]

[ You can absorb others' negative emotions to replenish your own energy. As for the use of this energy... ]

"As expected, the bone-scraping knife has upgraded again!"

"As long as I seize the opportunity to use the bone-scraping knife to absorb a BOSS's blood, I can randomly obtain an item from the BOSS."

Furthermore, the attributes displayed on this wizard's staff, named fallen angel, were compatible with the Magician class.

In real life, magic wands are also often items used by Magicians.

This meant that after Chen Mo entered a dungeon in the future, the bone-scraping knife would be classified as an item for the Magician class.

Chen Mo could now unlock hidden attributes.

At present, Chen Mo was still unsure exactly how many items were in each rank sequence.

The highest ID he had seen was Su Qing's rouge box, ranked at C315.

In any case, the bone-scraping knife had successfully crossed ranks, changing from a D-rank to a C-rank item.

It could be called a great harvest.

However...

There was still no background introduction on how to use it; it had gone straight from telling him a little story to just an ellipsis.

Chen Mo couldn't help but want to complain.

"Your item seems very special. Is it a rule-based one?"

Amy Seeger looked at the staff in Chen Mo's hand, her face filled with confusion.

"No, it's just a normal item."

"That's strange. This is the first time I've seen an item that can upgrade itself."

Putting aside her curiosity, Amy Seeger cast an unlocking spell, opening all the iron cages hanging from the ceiling.

The human souls inside all crawled out and lined up neatly before Chen Mo.

"Thank you, young man. I misjudged you; it turns out you went to get reinforcements."

"I take back what I said earlier about offering condolences to your family."

"Is there anything we can do for you?"

A few of the human souls seemed to feel uneasy if they didn't give Chen Mo some kind of reward.

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow and smiled, "As it happens, why don't you cry for me?"

"Cry? I'm so happy right now that I can't cry at all."

"Actually, when you left without saying goodbye earlier, I really wanted to cry."

Chen Mo waved the fallen angel, aiming it at the crowd in front of him.

"Think of memories that cause you pain."

"This..."

The group of souls were all a bit bewildered, not knowing what Chen Mo wanted to do.

Painful memories are things people are unwilling to recall.

Because as soon as one recalls them, they fall into deep self-internal friction.

Constantly thinking, 'If only that hadn't happened,' 'If only I could be reborn.'

However, there is always someone who will take the lead.

An uncle ghost knelt on the ground, holding his head, and roared with a ferocious expression.

"When I was in elementary school, I once saw a classmate from next door bullying a boy who wasn't mentally normal. I stood by and watched; I didn't step in to stop it."

"Later... he jumped off a building. Before he died, he kept staring at me. That look of seeking help seemed to be saying to me,"

"Why didn't you help me back then?"

Another young man was influenced and also began to roar while holding his head.

"If! If I hadn't been angry that night, if I hadn't left her alone in the bar, then Jenny wouldn't have been picked up by another man!"

"Later... Jenny died. The person who picked her up was a human trafficker."

"When Jenny was found, her body was full of large holes, and all her organs were gone."

Little Red Riding Hood's eyes were also streaming with tears at this moment.

Crystal-clear teardrops slid down from her eye sockets and hit the ground.

"If, if you had appeared a little earlier, Uncle, Mom and Dad's souls wouldn't have been made into magic potions!"

Hearing these sad stories, Amy Seeger couldn't help but frown deeply.

"You brat..."

She grabbed Chen Mo by the collar and glared fiercely at him.

"What exactly are you trying to do? Painful memories are meant to be sealed away!"

"These are things that are hard enough to hide, yet you make them say it out loud. Sam, don't tell me you've been invaded by an evil spirit too."

Chen Mo stared blankly at the Amy Seeger before him.

At this moment, Amy Seeger no longer had her previous arrogance and composure.

Instead, she was like a child, with tears streaming from her eyes.

"Vincent's dead wife was my companion, including the other girl who looked exactly like her."

"They were twins. They received instructions from the Mother Goddess of Light to pose as ignorant young girls and approach Vincent."

"In the end, they both died, and I was the only one who survived."

"Every time I saw them on stage assisting Vincent in performing those dangerous magic tricks, my heart felt incredibly heavy."

"I had already learned the magic to transform into a witch at that time."

"My teacher also suggested that I should be the one to complete the mission."

"But because of my cowardice, and my standing in the magic world, I didn't have the courage to disguise myself as a witch to approach Vincent."

"Perhaps... if it had been me back then, Vincent would have died long ago."

"And the two of them could have survived."
