As she answered, the familiar NPC panel appeared in front of Angel's eyes.
"Bonette"
"Bonette is one of the Seven Knights of the Dark Round Table: The Dreaming Knight. Bonette has just turned twelve this year. Three years ago, she accidentally turned the 33rd Town into the "Sleeping Town".
She was noticed by the Dark Round Table. She is also the youngest of the Seven Knights, but she possesses the most feared ability among all the knights. Her characteristics are laziness and sweet dreams. As long as she is around her or has malicious intentions towards her,
, you may be affected by her characteristics and fall into a lazy sleep unknowingly."
"Contacting Bonette or other characters in the same series may trigger the side mission "Seven Dark Knights"."
The characteristics of laziness and sweet dreams? Can people fall asleep unconsciously? A trace of doubt flashed in Angel's eyes.
What does “trait” mean?
Moreover, once you are around her or have any ill intentions towards her, you may be affected by her characteristics.
This sounds a bit like undifferentiated passive control ability.
So, traits are passive abilities that have special characteristics?
When Angel was thinking about it, he saw Sisley on the side suddenly stretched out, walked to the wall, and sat down against the corner, looking lazy.
He even yawned.
Angel: "???"
Sisley had always been energetic before. Could this sudden laziness be caused by Bonnet's characteristics?
Angel subconsciously sensed it with his mental power, and really discovered a hidden energy around Sisley.
The essence of this energy is almost the same as fashion magic, but it is more hidden.
So, trait is actually a kind of fashion ability?
Angel wasn't sure, but he walked up to Sisley, wrapped his hand in the power of nightmare, and gently scooped up the alien energy.
The energy affecting Sisley was easily captured by Angel.
Angel felt it and found that the nature of this energy seemed to have a soft and sticky feeling. After being touched by it, both the body and the spirit would slowly become soft and light, like feathers, light and light.
It was blown up lightly and then fell quietly.
Under the influence of this softness like floating clouds, my thoughts will slowly become lazy and undisciplined, and finally...slowly fall asleep.
This influence is not achieved overnight, but is a slow process. However, it is more subtle and difficult to detect than direct hypnosis.
Even if someone falls asleep under its influence, they will only think that they are sleepy rather than being controlled by someone.
This is a subtle change.
This is Bonette's quality.
When Angel was sensing it, Sisley also regained some energy due to the disappearance of the alien energy. However, he did not sit up from the ground immediately, but changed his posture and continued to sit on the ground.
Sisley no longer wanted to sleep at this time, but the inertia of laziness was still affecting him.
This is a subtle change.
Seeing this scene, Angel's eyes flickered: "Haman said before that the Dream Knight rarely appears in front of people. Every time he sits in the wandering house, he stays alone in his room."
"Perhaps, this is not because Bonette wants to choose to be lonely, but once she appears in the crowd, she may affect the people around her. She will turn the diligent people into lazy people, and make the lazy people fall into a deep sleep."
As mentioned in the NPC information, she even unintentionally turned the entire Thirty-Third Town into a sleeping town.
This is her quality.
"In desperation, Bonette had no choice but to exile herself."
This subtle influence is very terrifying. Even if the ability is removed, people's laziness cannot be eliminated immediately, because laziness is human nature, and people are naturally inclined to feel relaxed.
but……
Angel himself was not affected by this trait.
The reason is not difficult to guess. No matter how powerful the trait is, the upper limit is locked by the Dream Crystal. And the power of nightmare possessed by Angel belongs to the original energy of the Dream Crystal, and the trait cannot infect the nightmare.
Of illusory power.
Of course, this is only the case in the Dream Crystal Plains.
It's hard to say whether Angel would be affected by his traits if he met Bonnet in reality.
…
Then again, if Bonnet has this lazy quality, do the other Seven Knights also have similar qualities?
Angel looked at Bonnet.
"Trait? What is a trait?" Bonette's voice was very soft, like a breeze blowing by her ears.
Angel: "For example, you can make people lazy. This is a trait."
Bonette thought for a moment and shook her head: "I don't know, no one told me...is this called a trait?"
Okay, no need to ask.
Such things as traits are most likely prompt information given by Fairyland.
If Bonnet herself doesn't know her own traits, then there's probably no need to ask the other Seven Knights if they have any traits, she definitely doesn't know.
Angel didn't think deeply about whether the Seven Knights had any special qualities. It wouldn't be too late to investigate when they met later...
Let’s get down to business now.
"Are you a dream decorator?" Angel looked at Bonnet.
Bonette hesitated for a moment: "What is a dream decorator?"
Angel: "..."
Angel was silent for a moment: "Why are you called the Dream Knight? Is your ability related to dreams?"
Soon, Bonnet gave an answer.
The title of "Fallen Knight" was decided by the master of the Dark Round Table, and she actually didn't quite understand the reason.
She actually preferred the title Knight of Dreams to the title Knight of Dreams, but the master of the Dark Round Table did not accept this title. He just said: "The honorable name of the Seven Knights was set when the Dark Round Table was founded.
It can only be inherited and cannot be changed."
Therefore, she had no choice but to accept the title of "Dream Knight".
As for her abilities...Bonette said she has seven complete puzzle pieces.
However, four of the puzzles are basic puzzles, such as the plagiarism monster, the gossip spirit... these are the puzzles that almost most senior fashion magicians have, but their abilities are different.
Let’s not mention the basic puzzles for now.
The remaining three puzzles are advanced and advanced puzzles.
They are "Dream Weaver Doll", "Rousha Fairy" and "Halo Messenger".
"Dream Weaver Doll" is a puzzle piece that Bonnet obtained before joining the Dark Round Table, while "Rose Fairy" and "Halo Messenger" were obtained after joining.
Among them, "Halo Messenger" is the puzzle piece inherited from the previous Dream Knight.
The "Rose Shape Fairy" was obtained by herself.
The abilities of the Dream Weaver Doll and the Silk Fairy are respectively related to weaving dreams, making various soft fabrics, pajamas and dolls.
It is worth mentioning that these two puzzles are both fashionable monsters from the "Soft Series", so they share the same energy slot: Soft Point.
The "Halo Messenger" is rather strange and has no abilities.
But the master of the Dark Round Table once said that only those who obtain the "Halo Messenger" can be called the Seven Knights.
In other words, although the Halo Messenger does not directly grant abilities, its existence means a symbol of status.
After listening to Bonnet's story, Angel frowned slightly, because from her story alone, Angel did not find any abilities related to traits.
He even learned in detail about the abilities recorded in Bonnet's magic book. There were indeed some very special abilities, but they had almost nothing to do with traits.
It won't make people lazy, nor will it make people fall asleep.
This led Angel to speculate: perhaps traits are more akin to talents rather than acquired traits.
Angel was not sure, so he could only keep it in his mind for the time being and then explore it later.
However, Angel was still a little disappointed after learning that Bonette's abilities had little to do with "dreams" themselves. Bonette often fell asleep just because she couldn't find anything to do in reality, so she simply weaved things in her dreams.
Sweet dreams, increase the upper limit of soft points.
"Looking at it this way, Bonette, who can weave beautiful dreams, can barely be regarded as a kind of dream decorator." Angel murmured in a low voice.
Of course, this is just Angel's opinion.
Whether you are a dream decorator depends on how the City of Dreams defines a dream decorator.
But it doesn’t really matter whether Bonnet is a dream decorator or not. What’s important is, as a high-ranking member of the Dark Round Table, does she know the background of this world?
Next, Angel began to ask Bonnet about the background of the world.
But unfortunately, Bonette doesn't pay much attention to this and doesn't know much about it.
Although her status is not low, her time to join the Dark Round Table was too short, only three years. Moreover, during these years, she spent 80% of her time in her sleep.
Bonette was not interested in what happened in Modern City, let alone the outside world.
Angel originally thought that he could get some clues from Bonnet, but now it seems that it is not possible. As expected, he is unreliable at such a young age.
It seems that I still need to find someone who looks knowledgeable.
While sighing, Angel suddenly thought of something: "By the way, is the master of the Dark Round Table you just mentioned the chief of the Seven Knights? Who are the Seven Knights?"
Since Bonnet knew nothing about the background of the world, Angel planned to ask several other Seven Knights if he had time in the future.
However, Angel didn't know much about the Seven Knights. Although Haman told him some, he only mentioned five, and he didn't know much about the other two.
Bonnet didn't hide anything and told all the information she knew.
In addition to the Flame Knight, Slaanesh Knight, Dreamfall Knight, Noble Knight, and Red-Eyed Knight known to Angor, the remaining two knights are the Wind Knight and the Treasure Knight.
The Storm Knight and the Treasure Knight are absent from the Round Table all year round, and even Bonnet only saw them once when she became the Dream Knight.
As for where they went, Bonnet didn't know. She only knew that the Storm Riders were in other cities, while the Treasure Riders mostly stayed in the suburbs.
"Although the seven knights have different strengths, the noble knight and the flame knight are very strong, while I am weak... but there is no ranking within the knights."
"There is no distinction between first and second place."
"As for the master of the Dark Round Table I just mentioned, he is not the Seven Knights."
Upon hearing this, Angel was stunned: "There are other masters of the Dark Round Table?"
He always thought that the Seven Knights controlled the Dark Round Table, but Bonnet told him that the Dark Round Table still had a master?
Bonnie nodded.
Bonette seemed unwilling to talk more about the owner of the Dark Round Table, and her expression was a bit entangled.
"I have the mark of the Dark Round Table on my body. Words cannot be directed at him. Once directed at him, the mark will automatically stop me and I will not be able to speak out."
When Bonette said this, she gently pulled down the collar of her pajamas.
There was a dark cross mark on her Adam's apple.
After each Seven Knights joins the Dark Round Table, they will go to a special dark space. After coming out of there, the mark of the Dark Cross will appear at random locations on their body.
According to the noble knight, this mark contains the original power of the Dark Round Table.
It is not only a symbol of status, but it can also passively pull the Seven Knights into the dark space when they encounter danger of death.
It's a life-saving ability.
However, while receiving convenience, they were also subject to language restrictions.
The real master of the Dark Round Table cannot be mentioned at will. Once the words are specifically directed at the other party, the mark will release a power similar to the spirit of speech to prevent them from speaking.
Therefore, the master of the Dark Round Table is also a taboo of the Seven Knights, and Bonnet cannot talk about it much.
Because of this taboo, this is probably why the outside world has never heard that there is another owner behind the Dark Round Table.
After hearing Bonette's story, Angel's eyes flashed with interest.
He was quite curious about this so-called master behind the scenes.
He approached Bonnet and used his spiritual power to explore the mark on Bonnet's Adam's apple.
As soon as his mental power was explored, Angel felt that there seemed to be a hidden power in that mark, but it was now in an inert state.
But Angel had a feeling that once his mental power took another step forward, the inert power would turn into active power.
What will happen when this power is activated? Angel is still unclear, but it is most likely that he will be taken into that dark space as Bonette said.
Although Angel is somewhat interested in the so-called "dark space", he has no intention of exploring it now.
He and this dungeon of Modern City still have to maintain a certain distance in the early and mid-term... Once the entanglement is too deep and the cause and effect is entangled, he will not be able to freely enter and exit the dungeon.
At that time, it will be like Luigi to the Uriel dungeon. If you don't succeed, you will be in trouble and you will be trapped in the dungeon.
Therefore, Angel just sensed it from a distance and did not activate the mark.
However, through perception, Angel still obtained some information: the secret inert energy in the mark, although extremely complicated, still belongs to the category of fashion magic.
It is probably an ability possessed by a top fashion monster.
Since it falls under the category of fashion magic, it is easy to avoid it.
Angel stretched out his index finger and lightly tapped Bonette's Adam's apple, and the surging nightmare nodes spread out quickly, like a web, surrounding the mark tightly.
After doing all this, Angel looked at Bonnet.
"You try it now."
Bonnet hesitated for a moment, then slowly spoke: "The master behind the Dark Round Table, he is called...the King of Darkness."
After finishing speaking, Bonette paused for a moment to confirm that there was no reaction on the mark, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
Angel had expected this.
Using nightmares to isolate the connection between the mark and Bonette was Angel's method.
Facts have proved that the effect is not bad.
"The King of Darkness?" Angel's eyes flickered, and his tone was quite serious.
Bonnet nodded: "The King of Darkness, this is what people within the Knights call him. But I don't know who he is specifically, whether he is a man or a woman, because he has never appeared in the Round Table...
...Perhaps, only the noble knight knows his identity."
