Chapter 30 What do audiences and lawyers have in common?

Chapter 30 What are the common characteristics of “audience” and “lawyer”?

Her words made Glerint's breath hitch, and she was speechless.

However, the girl was quite excited. She fiddled with her blond hair and asked:

"You just said your potion was 'lawyer'? That sounds more like a profession than an extraordinary ability."

"Well, I'm quite interested in this extraordinary ability. Gray Lint, can you tell me what your extraordinary abilities are?"

Her eyes were full of curiosity and seemed to be overflowing, leaving Gray Linte with no thought of rejection.

"Of course, Audrey."

"Roughly speaking, the extraordinary abilities of a 'lawyer' are 'good at exploiting loopholes in the rules to attack the enemy' and 'good at persuading others'."

There is no need to hide this, but Audrey’s overly strong curiosity is a bit dangerous in this weird world!

So then, he reminded Audrey very formally:

"I must remind you, Audrey. Never directly ask for the sequence name and extraordinary abilities of an unfamiliar Beyonder."

"Why?"

Miss Audrey is really an excellent supporter!

After sighing in his heart, Gray Lint immediately explained aloud:

"In the middle and lower sequences, Extraordinaries can be very powerful or very weak. Their advantages and disadvantages are very obvious. Once you master the weaknesses and make preparations in advance, you can completely defeat the strong with the weak."

"So they are usually not willing to tell others about their extraordinary abilities."

Audrey was a little scared after hearing this, and subconsciously took several sips of coffee in succession.

"This...this is too dangerous!"

"Well, fortunately our sequences don't seem to be prone to fighting!"

For "audiences", this is indeed the case for mid- to low-sequences, but for "lawyers" this is not the case!

Gray Lint made no rebuttal. As Audrey, the danger of encountering an Extraordinary in battle was actually far less than the potential for the Extraordinary to lose control. This did not need to be emphasized too much by him.

He said jokingly:

"That's right! I even think that the common characteristic between 'audiences' and 'lawyers' is that there is no improvement in combat effectiveness compared to ordinary people."

In layman's terms, it means "combat power is five."

Of course, Gray Lint actually knows that several Sequence Nines actually do not directly improve the combat. In addition to "spectator" and "lawyer", there are also such as "divineer", "secret peeper", "pharmacist"...

"However, every sequence is actually magical enough."

"Sequences with insufficient combat effectiveness will be relatively more magical. This may be determined by the 'amount' of the 'magic potion'."

Since Audrey didn't know about the extraordinary characteristics yet, Gray Linte used the description of magic potion.

For the time being, Gray Linte just wants to satisfy Audrey's curiosity and fantasy about extraordinary abilities, and does not want her to go too far on this path.

Many times, people are innocent because of ignorance.

Gray Linte doesn't want to destroy Audrey's innocence and purity yet.

"What a pity. I was really looking forward to seeing you have that kind of magical and obvious extraordinary ability!"

A trace of disappointment flashed through Audrey's eyes, and then she said: "I don't know what changes will happen to our higher order, I'm really looking forward to it."

"If you just want to see similar magical powers, I think I can still satisfy you!"

"I have two magical items, both of which have some sufficiently magical external manifestations."

Because these two items are more than Sequence Nine in terms of extraordinary characteristics.

In order to let Audrey experience this miraculous ability, Gray Lint first let her hold the exquisite and gorgeous dagger and experience the feeling of soaring power.

Then he showed off the delicate ring on the little finger of his right hand.

"I also have a magical item here, but it's a pity that it can only be driven in the 'ancient Hermetic language'. Otherwise, I can give it a try to you."

Audrey's aristocratic knowledge actually includes some Hermetic language used for sacrifices, but she does not know the ancient Hermetic language that can leverage the power of nature.

"Then, do you know this mysterious language?" she asked hopefully.

Grayling nodded and replied:

"A little bit, I've been learning the language for less than a week."

Moreover, Joffrey actually not only taught two Hermetic languages, but also taught some changes and individual words in the languages ​​of giants, dragons, elves, etc. In addition, he also taught some impromptu occult knowledge.

Therefore, Gray Linte's progress in learning the ancient Hermes language is actually quite slow.

This is also because Joffrey is not a professional teacher and lacks a complete knowledge system. He often talks about whatever comes to mind.

"I can show you its simple capabilities."

As he spoke, Gray Lint raised his right hand, with the palm upright and the palm facing forward. Then he poured spiritual energy into the Ring of Law and commanded in a low voice in the ancient Hermes language:

"Speech is forbidden here."

Then, an invisible restriction filled the air around Audrey. Unfortunately, she didn't know Ancient Hermes at all and didn't understand what Gray Lint had just said.

Therefore, she subconsciously wanted to ask, but was surprised to find that she was speechless at all!

After trying again, Audrey, who was still speechless, had no choice but to give up. Then she raised her slender palm wrapped in white silk gloves, pointed at her mouth, and signaled Gray Linte to put away her extraordinary ability.

"What did you just say in the 'ancient Hermetic language'? Glerint."

"Does this ring have the ability to 'realize language'? It's very... very... 'cool'. By the way, it's the word that Emperor Russell described, which is not elegant but is quite suitable for this situation."

"What I just said was 'no words allowed here'."

Gray Lint repeated it in Loen language, then shook his head and explained:

"It's not as exaggerated as you think, Audrey. It can only prohibit certain behaviors and extraordinary abilities of intelligent creatures, but it cannot prohibit natural phenomena."

"For example, if I see a fruit on the tree that is ripe and about to fall to the ground. Then I say, 'It is forbidden to fall here,' it will not have any effect."

After briefly demonstrating several of his extraordinary abilities, Gray Lint was finally satisfied when he saw Audrey's happy and satisfied expression.

"It's a pity that the coins used for divination won't be available until tomorrow, so I can't show it to her."

After ending the display of extraordinary abilities with a little regret, the two began to discuss some weird phenomena and legends.

It wasn't until dinner was approaching that Audrey said goodbye to Gray Lint with some reluctance and left his mansion with endless aftertaste.

Graylint, whose invitation to dinner was fruitless, felt rather regretful about this.

————————————————————————

After dinner and grooming, Graylint began his agenda of "teaching the little mouse to speak."

Jim has been born for a week, and the fur on his body is getting more and more, but the color is not clearly visible yet.

Considering that its mother's fur is brown, Gray Lint actually looked forward to Jim becoming another "yellow mouse".

Naturally, Gray Linte's behavior of teaching it language has not yielded any results for the time being. The little mouse can't even "squeak", and even if it is hungry, it can only call "chichichichi".

Vaguely aware that the baby rat might gradually change its diet, but not sure about the developmental cycle of the baby rat, Graylint prepared some chopped green vegetables and soaked rice in advance and placed them next to it on a plate.

He believed that although Jim had not yet opened his eyes, he would definitely be able to smell the aroma of food if necessary.
