Not to mention the debate between Kailas and Hedia about whether the cat goblin is a cat or not.
By the way, Kailas actually has no chance of winning this debate, because when humans judge whether a creature is a creature they already know, they never consider the attributes of the creature itself, such as whether there is some kind of huge shark in the sea.
, but because it looks very much like a whale, people will still call it a whale, or at most, it will be called a whale shark.
This is not a naming problem, but a cognitive problem. We always use the known world to fit into the unknown world. Whenever something we didn’t understand before is put into our field of vision, we will try to compare it with the already known world.
Know the correlation.
This kind of cognitive logic is unavoidable. For example, if you think that a store with a wine glass sign in front of the door should sell wine, and a store with a needlework sign in front of the door should sell cloth, then the store with a sign in the shape of a goblin should naturally sell goblins.
.
"Huh? Oh! I mean, welcome!" The apprentice, who was lying on the counter with one hand supporting his chin, looked like he would fall asleep at any moment. So much so that he didn't react when Cheese and Atta came in.
.
Cheese's brows wrinkled slightly under the hood. He thought he would see a shop full of bottles and jars, with dried goblin bodies hanging from the ceiling. He never thought that as soon as he walked in, what he would smell was
There is a strong and uncomfortable floral fragrance. After staying in a room with such a strong fragrance for a long time, it is no wonder that the clerk will feel drowsy.
But Atta, who was hesitant to enter behind him, showed the opposite behavior. Smelling the smell, the female swordsman's expression perked up, and then she showed a nostalgic look, as if she suddenly returned to her childhood life.
place.
But no matter what their reaction was, this store was very different from what Gray Robe originally imagined.
"Sorry, I saw the sign outside the door, but I still want to confirm what kind of items are sold here?" Cheese looked around the inside of the store. This place was indeed different from other simple shops on the platform.
The vines growing around the pillars have patterns like human faces, the small flower pots hanging on the beams are blooming with brightly colored flowers, and the dream catchers that exist in the corners like spider webs are hung with emerald green feathers.
and Bronze Bell. There are various signs that they went to the wrong place, but they are not completely wrong.
There is nothing directly related to fairies here, but the atmosphere in the whole store is very close to people's imagination of fairies.
"Sorry, I should have taken the initiative to introduce you. You are customers from outside, right? I am very happy to introduce you to Dream Demon House, which is this shop. It..."
The apprentice stood up and walked out of the counter. He spoke faster and faster, and suddenly stopped when his speaking speed reached a certain limit, like a puppet with its threads cut off. His body was half-bowed, his hands hung down naturally, and his head
The pressure is so low that one cannot see the expression.
"Wait, don't worry." Cheese stopped Atta who wanted to draw his sword. He could keenly feel what happened in the past few seconds, so he was more aware of the current situation.
Sure enough, less than three seconds later, the male apprentice suddenly stood up and moved his neck and limbs. It was something that felt inconsistent, and his movements and facial expressions showed a certain feminine tendency.
.
Now this apprentice felt like a lady. He or she looked at the cheese, tilting her head slightly with a playful expression. Then she turned back to behind the counter and flipped her non-existent long hair.
"Re-introduction, welcome to the Dream Demon's House. I am the owner of this store and the mentor of the lazy guy you see. Please remember to tell him later. Because of his laziness, he is responsible for copying this month.
It's ten pages longer, but that's the point. The point is, what can I do for you? What do you expect to find when you walk into this store? Just tell me, and I'll help as much as I can."
Possession is not a rare category. It is very common in myths and legends. One consciousness occupies the body of another consciousness and controls the latter's actions.
However, it usually occurs between intelligent creatures and non-intelligent creatures, and it rarely directly possesses other living people. There are many reasons for this, and in summary, it is too difficult. To be able to complete this kind of spell so lightly,
The possessed person must have extraordinary abilities.
"I am Cheese, the Northland mage who was invited to watch the ceremony. This is my companion Atta. I hope to find information about the elf writing, but you don't seem to be willing to show me those books. Fortunately,
Someone in the library suggested I come here to get help, and that's why we came."
Cheese did not tell Atta's full name, which was a safer approach. When facing an unknown spell caster, not saying anything is the best defense.
"Can you read the goblin's words? Or can she?" The voice of the person behind the counter was frivolous, but the last question made Cheese feel pressured for a long time.
This is because although Atta is different from ordinary people, in order to reduce the trouble caused by her appearance, Gray Robe has already cast spells on her hair, so that people who see her will only regard her as an abnormal person.
A human girl with beautiful eyes.
This spell was completed when he was repairing the stream. To be cautious, he even performed a ritual to enhance the effect of the spell. Even in the few minutes after the spell was completed, even Kailas could not see through Atta's half-goblin identity.
.
So why did the person in front of me ask such a question? Did she say it casually? Or did she just see the reality hidden by the gray robe through the possessed body? Who is she?
"Strictly speaking, only I can." Cheese took half a step forward and gently blocked the female swordsman behind the gray robe. He did not want the latter to continue to be exposed to the other party's eyes.
"Strictly speaking, huh?" The other party smiled. And Gray Robe was very sure that this was because she didn't get any feedback that Cheese was lying from the spells set up in this shop.
"Yes. So now, can you tell us if we can help here?"
"This is simple. But one thing comes after another. The matter of fairy writing is an academic issue. According to the process, of course I am willing to help. But the business in my store has never been good. I finally got customers, but I didn't sell anything.
This thing is really a pity. Why don't you take a look at it first, and we can discuss the follow-up matters later."
Asking for money so blatantly made Cheese feel dumbfounded. The other party had already expressed their attitude and the matter could be done, but how they would do it would be different depending on their choices.
Of course, Cheese could not go along with the other party's wishes and walk away. After asking around, he would definitely be able to find the so-called Fairy Research Institute. But based on what the other party said, it would be inevitable to delay the process. And time is of no use to them now.
It's a very important thing.
Right now, it’s better to do less than to do more.
