Dorothy’s Forbidden Grimoire

Amid the steam of the industrial revolution, mysteries surge beneath the surface. Cults and secret societies seek the extraordinary in the shadows, while hidden gods gaze upon humanity from the hea...

Chapter 196 Necklace (2/2)

Dorothy explained to Nephthy. Nephthy took the history book handed to her by Dorothy, and then opened the book with a hint of doubt and curiosity. As expected, she saw a passage written in handwriting on the title page. Nephthy could not help but read it out loud.

"The greatness that records all things..."

"You can just recite it silently in your mind, you don't need to say it out loud."

Dorothy interrupted Nefernis, who raised her head in surprise and spoke.

"Miss Dorothea, you said this is an honorific name... This name doesn't refer to..."

"Shh... You don't need to know too much about the existence referred to by the name for now. Just pray for protection when the time comes." Dorothy said mysteriously with her finger in front of her mouth. Frightened by Dorothy's action, Nephnesse also closed her mouth, nodded slightly, and stopped talking.

Although she was silent, Nephnis' heart was already filled with waves.

'That honorific name just now... those adjectives... refer to gods, right? Only true gods can be worthy of such words, right? Surely the research of the academy was correct? In addition to the Three Saints and the Savior, there are many other gods in this world. Are they the evil gods and demons that were expelled by the Savior? Or are they of some other origin?

"This Rosicrucian actually believes in a secret god, and I can actually pray to this god for protection... My God, this is really incredible..."

Nefernis thought in disbelief in her heart, and at this time, Dorothy spoke again with a warning.

"We hope that you can finish reading the remaining two books within a day and qualify to enter the inner zone. Can you do this?"

"Um... two books in one day. That shouldn't be a problem. The books in Thorn's collection aren't too thick. Each book is only about 200 pages. If I hurry up, I should be able to finish reading them in one day."

Nefernis responded, and Dorothy breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Nefernis's answer.

"Phew... Looks like we still have time."

"That's it, Senior Nefernis, these are the main contents of this conversation. I hope you can achieve your goal after you go back. Whether the thorns can be defeated depends on you." Dorothy said solemnly to Nefernis, and the other party nodded seriously.

"Well, I'll try my best."

"Well, now it's time to say goodbye, but before that, I want to take a look at the broken necklace that your grandfather left for you."

Looking at Nefernis, Dorothy continued to say that she wanted to confirm whether there was any spirituality left in Nefernis's necklace and whether it could play a role again. Last time, she saw the necklace through the vision of the corpse doll Brandon, but the corpse doll had no spiritual vision and could not discover it.

"Necklace? Wait a moment..."

As she spoke, Nephnis rummaged in her bag. After a while, she found a handkerchief, put it on the table and opened it. What appeared before Dorothy was a pile of scattered gold fragments.

Dorothy turned on her spiritual vision and looked at the fragments in front of her, but she did not see any spiritual traces. It was certain that the spirituality stored in them had been drained away.

"No way... there really is no spirituality at all. Nephthys has only read two severely diluted ton biographies, and has she used up all the spirituality in this? This extraordinary item is really too good."

Looking at the fragments of gold jewelry in front of her, Dorothy thought that in her opinion, this should be an extraordinary item that can resist poison. It was damaged because of the exhaustion of spiritual power. But the poison-detecting power of the two books in Thorn Velvet's collection was not much, so could it consume the spiritual power of this necklace?

After thinking for a while, Dorothy asked Neferness beside her.

"Did your grandfather give you this necklace personally? When did he give it to you? How is your grandfather now?"

"My grandparents have passed away a long time ago. This necklace was given to me by my grandfather when I was a child."

As she spoke, Nephnis began to think, and after thinking for a while she continued.

"I remember when I was little I was very naughty and loved sneaking into my grandfather's collection room to look at the North Ufrican cultural relics inside. I remember one time when I was looking at those cultural relics, I didn't know why I felt dizzy and fainted. It took a long time for me to wake up.

“After I woke up, my grandfather was extremely anxious and blamed himself, and warned me not to enter the collection room again, but I loved looking at those cultural relics so I kept crying. Then my grandfather gave me this necklace helplessly and told me that if I wanted to enter the collection room again, I had to wear this necklace. After I put it on and went to the collection room, I really didn’t faint again.

"After my grandfather passed away, I kept wearing it as a souvenir. Until a few months ago when I was reading the velvet collection, it suddenly broke into pieces."

Nefernis finished speaking, and then sat quietly aside. Dorothy stared at the necklace with a frown on her face, listening to Nefernis' words. It was unknown what she was thinking about.
