Kulenna closed his eyes and solemnly chanted the spell.
Out of caution, he chose not to skip the recitation and completed every step of the spell.
A simple and elegant melody sounded from Kulenna’s mouth.
The edge of Alia’s pupils began to turn incorporeal as if something was about to come out.
With the last syllable completed, Kulenna placed the staff in his hand in front of Bernal. Everything became different.
A special wave passed through Bernal’s body.
Bernal’s eyes suddenly widened, his pupils turning into the shape of a crown under the expectant gaze of Kulenna.
Gulp gulp!
The black sea reflected in Kulenna’s eyes.
What power is this?
Kulenna was first startled before he realized that the black water was pouncing on him.
Not good, something has happened!
Bernal’s power had gone berserk.
As he sensed the ominous power, a magic barrier appeared in front of Kulenna as he held his staff tightly.
An urgent and high-frequency incantation chanted from Kulenna’s mouth.
He was no longer as elegant as before.
He waved his hands forcefully, and the leaves on the tree-shaped staff fluttered. A few pieces fell off.
There was no doubt about Kulenna’s abilities to be titled a master.
In the face of the unexpected event, he dealt with it immediately.
The black tide calmed down. As the black water receded, Kulenna immediately looked at Bernal, who was still in the middle of the test.
How things turned out had exceeded his expectations. He could not care about anything else as his top priority was to ensure Bernal’s safety.
“Young Master Nielson, are you alright?”
He quickly arrived in front of Bernal and stepped on the black water without stirring up any waves.
At this moment, something altered in the crystal ball in Bernal’s hand.
The crystal ball that was initially like a starry sky was now as black as ink.
Kulenna subconsciously looked over. With a closer inspection, his expression changed drastically.
Red threads surfaced on the crystal ball. As red and black intertwined, a pattern appeared on the crystal ball.
Bernal recognized the pattern as it was similar to the evil god mark of Rogeria.
Still, there was a difference between the two.
In the evil god mark that he had seen before, the curves of Rogeria’s body were clearer.
However, what appeared on the crystal ball was even more hazy, giving people a more mysterious feeling.
Just as Bernal carefully distinguished the difference between the pattern on the crystal ball and the mark of the Evil God, Kulenna also saw this mark.
Instantly, he looked terrified.
“This unsettling and manic power, as well as this mark. It can’t be wrong. This is…”
At this moment, Kulenna suddenly felt something. He turned around abruptly and looked at Alia. His expression twisted.
His eyes were filled with terror as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.
“You, you are!”
Just as Kulenna’s attention focused on Alia, a tender voice sounded behind him.
“It’s a pity. I wanted to build a good relationship with you and get along well with you.”
The moment he heard the voice, Kulenna felt his shoulders sink.
Through the touch, he believed that Bernal had placed his chin on his shoulder.
“It’s a pity that you know too much. You left me with no choice. Come and become my toy.”
Kulenna tried to look back. However, he realized that no matter how he struggled, he could not move at all.
“Great, I’m just curious. What would your child with the Night Bat Ape be like?”
Having Kulenna swallowed by the black water, Bernal turned to Alia.
At this moment, Alia looked over.
The two of them looked at each other for a long time before Bernal finally asked, “How do you feel?”
Alia tilted her head and thought for a moment. She then looked at Bernal and said with uncertainty.
“Great?”
“Why the questioning tone?”
“I’m not sure either.”
When he reached Alia, Bernal focused on her with his eyes that bore the mark of a crown.
“Any changes?”
The development of the matter had exceeded his expectations. He did not expect a proper test would result in this situation.
He had no choice but to turn this person who was about to become his teacher into his toy.
What was more unexpected was that Kulenna’s magic affected others in the vicinity.
It led to the possibility that something had happened to her maidservant, Alia, that exceeded her expectations.
It attracted Bernal’s attention. He was curious whether it would wake up Rogeria inside Alia.
However, things did not seem to have reached that stage.
In the face of Bernal’s question, the hem of Alia’s dress moved, and then familiar tentacles poked out from underneath.
“Does this count?”
Shaking her tentacles, Alia looked at Bernal.
Bernal whistled, and the pupil of his right eye changed form at this moment.
He secretly raised his guard as he asked Alia, “Cool. Anything else?”
Looking at her tentacle, Alia could feel that this was a part of her. She had the feeling that everything was as it should be.
Therefore, Alia did not feel any discomfort after the tentacles appeared.
When she got questioned again, Alia shook her head.
“Not for the time being.”
Bernal relaxed a little as his gaze lingered on Alia’s face.
It seemed like there were no signs of waking up.
Although he was not afraid of her because of the contract, it was different for people around him.
He could not protect anyone against Rogeria yet.
A familiar tentacle emerged from the depths of the black sea.
When Alia looked at these tentacles, she felt a sense of familiarity.
She looked at Bernal, who controlled the tentacles to wrap around Alia’s arm. Then he said, “Want to play together?”
“Okay.” Alia did not refuse and will never decline.
“Let me teach you how to use them.”
Bernal seemed excited.
Then…
“Why are you so good?”
Bernal looked at the tentacles that bound him and looked at Alia gloomily.
On the other hand, Alia’s expression was more lively now. She seemed in a good mood.
“I don’t know either. It feels like I’m just doing whatever I want.”
To Alia, the tentacles were like her arms, a part of her. She would naturally know how to control them.
Just as Bernal was about to continue playing with Alia, he heard Eva’s voice coming from afar.
“Bernal, it’s time for dinner.”
“Oh shoot, it’s already mealtime!”
