Jenkins temporarily placed the Ouija board that was fished out of the sea last night at home, because it was not a monster, so it was less dangerous. But he still didn't know the correct way to use it. After all, the behavior of attracting evil spirits last night was caused by the group of women themselves.
Ouija boards may have played a role in this, but certainly not to their full potential.
To be on the safe side, he planned to call the professor or Hathaway when he had time, and then experiment with that board.
Dad quickly turned back from the outside and told Jenkins that the church would take care of the next thing, and he didn't have to worry about it anymore.
But Pop was soon annoyed again, for before he could take off his coat and hat Jenkins mentioned another matter.
"Father, when I met the evil spirit last night, while I was standing face to face with it, there was a cold force against my skin that wanted to pour into my body, and then my soul emblem produced some changes."
"Goddess~"
The old man let out a helpless groan/groan: "Is it interesting to let me run back and forth like this?"
He grabbed Jenkins, and the two rushed to the church without stopping, and happened to meet Captain Bincy in the corridor of the courtyard.
"Dad, didn't you just leave?"
"Something happened again."
Dad replied like this, and Captain Bincy immediately showed a sympathetic expression when he saw that Jenkins was also on the side.
This time, the father took Jenkins directly to find Miss Bevanna. She looked a little tired, but she still listened carefully to the two of them narrating what happened.
The first thing to do is to confirm that Jenkins is really Jenkins, and not replaced by someone with a similar soul emblem.
This is easy to confirm. Under the gaze of the secret keeper, he faced the holy emblem of the sage on the gate of Vientiane, and called the sage's gaze.
A bright golden light burst out from Jenkins' body, and warm and soft eyes projected down from the void as if in substance... Then nothing happened, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
Miss Bevanna went directly to the Gate of Vientiane to get something, and then returned to her office with Jenkins, while the old man stayed in the underground space with the keeper.
"Mr. Williams, you don't need to worry. Although the mutation of the soul emblem is extremely rare, it has not never happened."
These were Miss Bevanna's first words, and she placed a book bound by a brass-colored chain between them.
The cover of this book is leather, but it has become yellow and curly due to the force of time, and a few words are smeared with black paint like blood. That was an ancient script, which Jenkins hadn't learned yet.
"This is B-11-5-2938, St. Pym's Collection."
"Saint Pym? Excuse me, does this refer to the famous holy son of the [Travel and Covenant] church?"
"Yes, St. Pym is a holy son who lived in the 16th century. This book is his collection. This holy son, like most believers in the Great Traveler Church, loves to travel. He will The commemorative items I saw during my travels are stored here. I think, Dad should have told you his story, right?"
Miss Bevanna asked, pushing the teacup towards Jenkins.
He thanked him softly, unconsciously rubbing the rim of the cup with the lid of the teacup, recalling the story his father told:
"Yes, because the time has passed so long, Dad thinks there is a certain fictional element in this story. According to the story, when St. Pym was passing through a small village, he accidentally discovered a very beautiful valley. Even if the valley The scenery of spring can also be displayed in winter. Saint Pym learned about this from the villagers, so he went happily. But he didn't expect that all this was a conspiracy. The villagers in the village had long been controlled by the cultists. And selfish, fierce and ruthless. After using some means to control Saint Pym, he killed him."
Jenkins paused, then continued:
"The old man said that this is a story that every follower of the traveler knows, and the purpose is to warn the traveler not to trust strangers easily."
Although the fairy tale literature in this world is not very developed, there are many warning records in religious stories.
"Yes, this is the story that is being circulated now, but the truth of the matter is more complicated than this. If we have time, we can talk about it again. Today's focus is on this collection book left by St. Pym. I discovered it when sorting out his relics, maybe it’s because there are too many extraordinary materials in the collection, maybe it’s because Saint Pym’s own power is infecting it, in short, this collection book has become a B-type extraordinary.”
She put her hand on the book in front of her.
"But since it is an item left by the Holy Son of the Traveler Church, why is it here with us... I mean, isn't this a holy item of the Traveler Church?"
"This involves some stories from the past, um... There is not the slightest contradiction between the Orthodox Church. So, can you understand?"
Miss Bevanna raised her eyebrows, and looked at the young man with her beautiful eyes.
Jenkins froze for a moment, showed a surprised expression, and then nodded slowly.
"That's reasonable~"
He sighed in his heart.
"In short, this collection book has extraordinary power due to various reasons. Theoretically speaking, it can temporarily store and seal all items. After getting it, Nolan Diocese often uses it to seal some dangerous things, until these The object has found more appropriate containment measures. Therefore, within the scope of the Nolan parish, the danger level of this object is very high, and there are only three people in the parish who have the authority to take it out of the Vientiane Gate."
As Miss Bevanna spoke, she tapped the chains with her long, fair fingers. With the sound of clattering, they automatically detached from the surface of the book, and then lay on the other side of the table in a neat circle.
"Mr. Williams, most of our subsequent conversations are confidential, and I think you should also know the confidentiality regulations."
He nodded, and he could see that the light of divine magic had enveloped the entire room. This was a measure to prevent wiretapping, anti-prophecy divination, etc.
"Currently, there are a total of 37 numbered items stored in B-11-5-2938, including 34 strange objects, 2 extraordinary items, and 1 gift."
"Wait, does the gift also need containment?"
"Yes, some unowned gifts are more destructive than monsters."
She explained simply, without elaborating on what the gift was. Carefully flipping through the first page of the book, Jenkins who was nearby even vaguely smelled the unique decaying smell of ancient books.
