As the words from the ancient Hermetic language echoed, the positions where Audrey and Hvin Rambis were located dimmed at the same time.

It was as if someone passed by, blocked the nearest window, and then quickly moved away.

When the light was restored, in the virtual world, the island of consciousness shrouded by the terrifying mental storm changed from Audrey's to Hvin Rambis's, and the one who invaded the other's mind body changed from Hvin Rambis to Audrey.

The "Luck Stealer" spell!

This is a spell made with Amon's "Time Worm" as the material and the power of "The Fool" as the possession. It can steal the target's fate in the next short period of time and exchange it with the corresponding future of the user!

This was the medical fee that Audrey received from Gehrman Sparrow when she treated Hazel's mental breakdown. With the help of this spell, she grafted the future in which the consciousness barrier was about to be broken and the mind was about to be manipulated onto Hvin Rambis, and stole from him the destiny of controlling the "psychic storm", opening the door of the target's mind body, and directly modifying and planting the corresponding consciousness.

In an instant, the situation was reversed, and Audrey jumped from the brink of collapse to gain an absolute advantage.

Of course, this advantage can only last for a short period of time.

Frankly speaking, if Audrey had not thought about how to struggle and save herself when she was in a desperate situation two days ago, she would definitely not have thought of using the "Luck Stealer" spell just now. Or, by the time she thought of it, it was too late. Similarly, at this moment, just like she had rehearsed it many times in her mind, she suppressed her surprise at the effect of the "Luck Stealer", quickly determined her status, and took advantage of the current advantage to let the "Psychic Storm" mixed with the "Hypnosis" effect sweep in, opening the door to Hvin Rambis's mind body.

Hvin Lambis was stunned for a moment, just like an ordinary person who was hypnotized by focusing all his attention on Audrey's golden eyes.

Yes, at this moment, as a demigod of the "audience" path, his mind was manipulated by Audrey, who was only at Sequence 6.

In this way, even if the effect of "Luck Thief" ends, it cannot change the established fact!

However, Audrey knew that she had only used the magical spell and Hvin Rambis's own ability to open the door to his mind body and completed the initial manipulation. If she wanted to do something later, she would inevitably suffer the corresponding rejection. At her sequence level, she could not resist and control the stronger kind.

Moreover, she could clearly sense that Hvin Rambis was resisting his current state deep in his subconscious, and a small amount of gray scales began to appear on his face in the real world.

It won't be long before he can forcibly break free from my initial control over his mind... This realization flashed through Audrey's mind.

She then turned her gaze towards Hvin Rambis's head, regretting that she did not carry a powerful pistol. Otherwise, she could have taken this opportunity to fire several shots in an attempt to kill him.

Soon, she remembered the "Dragon Scale" she possessed. She believed that Hvin Rambis must have it as well, and it was even stronger and more solid. It could not be broken by ordinary attacks, and even most of the corresponding low- and medium-sequence magical items could not do it!

And if he couldn't be killed with one strike, Hvin Rambis would definitely be able to use this opportunity to wake up and break free from control.

Without hesitation, Audrey, who lacked sufficient means of attack, made a quick decision:

"Hypnotize him!"

He is best at hypnosis and has a strong resistance to it. On the contrary, he will not prepare any extra items to defend against this influence... I can't let him do anything that goes against his will. Given the difference in our levels, I will definitely not be able to resist the corresponding subconscious resistance... Thoughts flashed through Audrey's mind quickly, and she spoke with slightly dry lips.

She tried not to show any abnormality, stared into Hvin Rambis's eyes, and said in a very soft voice:

"Find a place to wait in Grallint's mansion, and meet me in the garden in fifteen minutes..."

The implantation of this subconscious idea did not arouse too obvious rejection, and Audrey completed the manipulation relatively smoothly - as for Hwin Rambis, he was indeed here to see Audrey today, and the planned meeting place was also Viscount Grallint's mansion. The hypnosis Audrey performed only modified the corresponding time and specific location, and the difference was within a very small range, so it was in line with Hwin Rambis's will, without much effort, and without encountering strong resistance.

"Okay..." Hvin Rambis responded to Audrey's words.

Audrey didn't have time to relax. She perked up and continued to look into the other person's eyes, saying softly:

“You won’t come to see me until a quarter of an hour later, so you haven’t seen me today.

"Since you haven't seen me yet, everything that just happened must not exist and will be forgotten."

Since Hvin Rambis had already accepted the hypnosis, he followed the corresponding logic. Although he had some instinctive resistance, it was not strong and soon disappeared into thin air in those bright golden, deep and charming eyes.

"Yes, I haven't seen you yet. Nothing happened just now..." Hvin Rambis repeated with a slightly dazed expression, and a lot more gray-white scales appeared on the surface of his skin.

After completing this crucial step, Audrey resisted the urge to pat her chest, thought for a second and said:

“When you hear my singing, you will become quiet.”

She originally wanted to combine seduction with hypnosis, but she found that she could not strike any sexy poses, nor make the corresponding expressions. She had no choice but to raise her hands to gather her drooping golden hair, tilting her head slightly, her eyes moving, and her smile becoming brighter.

Then she hummed the melody of "Manor Under the Moon" in a nasal voice.

Hvin Rambis looked at the beautiful girl in front of him who was as beautiful as sunshine, flowers and gems, and listened to her ethereal and ethereal voice. His heart gradually became quiet and he no longer felt any resistance.

Seeing that the other party was about to break free from the initial manipulation, Audrey did not delay and pointed to the other side of the corridor:

"Go over there, regain consciousness when you see that piece of stained glass, and remove the dragon scales."

She knew very well that on the other side of the corridor, towards the main entrance, there was one exquisite white-background stained glass window after another.

This order was not dangerous at all, and it did not go against Hvin Rambis's will. He immediately took a step forward, walked quickly along the aisle, and turned right.

Audrey let out a slow breath only after his back disappeared from her sight, letting the fear, terror, and tension surge up and rage in her heart.

Her body trembled slightly, her mouth opened slightly, and she began to breathe in and out in small sips uncontrollably.

After ten seconds, Audrey used a "soothing mantra" on herself to calm herself down.

Then, she glanced at the clock on the wall, and stood there, raising her hands, clasping them in front of her mouth and nose, and whispered the honorific name of Mr. Fool.

She prayed for the angel's blessing once again, and asked this great being to tell the "world" Gehrman Sparrow that she had determined when Hvin Rambis would arrive, and would summon him two minutes in advance, asking him to calculate the time and arrive without being too anxious or getting too close, lest Hvin Rambis be alerted to an ambush.

During this process, Audrey only briefly mentioned what had happened and did not describe it in detail to avoid wasting time.

Then, she raised her hands and pressed her cheeks to make her expression return to normal. She then began to hypnotize herself, telling herself to hum the melody whenever she saw Hvin Rambis.

After doing all this, Audrey went to the hall and found the golden retriever Susie first. She took back the "Lie" necklace and the "Wine Killer" diamond collar pin from her. The latter, which could resist the influence of the mind, could only be worn for half an hour at most, otherwise the damage to the liver and brain would be irreversible. Therefore, Audrey planned to wear it after leaving the Greylint mansion to prevent Hvin Rambis from looking for her halfway.

Susie didn't notice anything unusual about Audrey, and watched her put on the brooch and necklace.

After several minutes, Audrey folded a gauze black glove and put it into the pocket of her knight's uniform. She used the excuse of going to the bathroom and took a detour into the garden of Viscount Glint's house.

Then she looked at the big clock on the spire attached to the house and memorized the time with a little tension.

For her, she was afraid that Hvin Rambis would not come, but also worried that he would arrive early or late.

Time passed by minute by minute, and Audrey used "comfort" twice to calm herself down.

When there were two minutes and fifteen seconds left, she took off the feather accessory on her hat and snapped her wrist.

The red flame rose up and ignited the white feather.

This is the "fire manipulation" ability that comes with "Lies".

The flame turned pale as it burned, and in just two or three seconds, the feather, a byproduct of the artificial death god, was reduced to ashes.

And there were no changes around.

After looking at the clock again, Audrey took out a talisman made of white tin and chanted a word in ancient Hermetic:

"lightning!"

The talisman then lit up, and there seemed to be many tiny electric snakes entangled.

This is the spell to summon Gehrman Sparrow.

When the lightning disappeared, the talisman completely collapsed and merged into the void, but the surrounding area was still quiet without any noise.

Xio, Fors and the others should have already found the Church of the Night and started praying... Audrey calmed herself down and pretended to admire the remaining autumn flowers.

She didn't look up at the big clock again, but counted down the time in her heart.

Three seconds, two seconds, one second... She slowly raised her head and looked around, but she did not see Hvin Rambis.

Did he notice something unusual and move away from here? Audrey's heart suddenly tightened, and she couldn't help but think about what she had done wrong.

At this moment, a gentle voice sounded in her ears:

"What are you looking for?"

Audrey's pupils suddenly dilated. She saw from the corner of her eye that Hvin Rambis, a man with silver hair and light blue eyes, had appeared beside her at some point, and there seemed to be a hint of doubt in his tone.

Having already hypnotized herself, she did not hesitate at this moment, and responded according to her subconscious mind, humming the beautiful melody of "Manor Under the Moonlight".

Amidst the ethereal voice, Hvin Rambis calmed down and listened attentively.

Suddenly, he found that the distance between him and Audrey became very far, even though neither of them moved.

The night enveloped the garden in its afternoon state, and a huge red moon rose above the top of the nearest house. A figure stood there, wearing a black windbreaker and a half-top hat, his face blurred by the backlight.
