The so-called "interruption-type" ritual magic means that when an Extraordinary Person is performing a ritual, he or she can interrupt it according to the situation, complete other things first, and then return to continue after finishing the ritual, and still get the desired effect.

This is a skill derived from the development of ritual magic over thousands of years. After all, many high-level rituals require many steps and may take an hour, two hours, or even half a day to complete. It is difficult to ensure that there will be no interruptions or accidents during the process.

After the blood and tears lessons of the predecessors, and after repeated feedback from failures, the ritual magic that can "interrupt" has become the mainstream at the high level and indirectly affected the low-level part.

However, being able to "interrupt" does not mean that you can interrupt it whenever you want and however you want. You must follow the theories of mysticism and master the corresponding techniques. Otherwise, the failure of the ritual is an inevitable outcome, and it may even bring about a horrific backlash.

According to Klein's understanding, when you successfully gain the attention of a certain god, and while He is waiting for you to say what you want, you suddenly say "Wait, I'll go to the bathroom first", then congratulations, you will never need to go to the bathroom again.

Huklein exhaled and tried to keep himself calm.

Although he had performed many "lucky change ceremonies" and even designed corresponding procedures for "Justice" and "The Hanged Man" to try, this was the first time he had practiced real, ceremonial magic that complied with regulations.

Glancing at the silver-inlaid cane leaning against the bed, Klein picked up the third candle and placed it in the center of the desk as a symbol of himself.

Then he placed Selina's small silver bowl for the ceremony in front of the third candle, replacing the cauldron with the holy emblem. On the left were the pure dew and essential oils of plants such as moon flower and deep sleep flower. On the right were a dish of salt, a small silver dagger, a piece of imitation parchment, and a water-dipped quill.

Fortunately, Selina's stuff was relatively complete, otherwise there would be no way to complete the arrangement. And Old Neil's quick ritual was not something a "fortune teller" could do. So it seemed that Selina was a more experienced occultist. Well, if she wasn't an experienced one, she wouldn't have gotten into such trouble. She was only sixteen years old, and she had been exposed to this for at least a year. Who introduced her to it? Klein's thoughts flew as he picked up Selina's cup from the bedside, poured water into it, and placed it next to the coarse salt.

He took out his pocket watch, clicked it open and took a look. Without further delay, he sketched out layers of light balls in his mind and quickly entered into meditation.

**An invisible wind suddenly swirled in the room filled with the fragrance of flowers. Klein, who had put away his pocket watch, suddenly had darker eyes, from brown to black, as if he could see the soul of every person watching him.

He stretched out his palm, placed it on the candle in the upper right corner, and silently said in his heart:

"Goddess of Night, you are the Lord of Crimson!"

As he silently chanted, Klein extended his spiritual power and rubbed the candle wick. After several times, the candle was lit up in an instant, and the dim light was tinged with a slightly peaceful light blue.

"Goddess of Night, you are also the queen of misfortune and fear!"

Following the same method, Klein successfully lit the second candle in the upper left corner.

"I am your loyal guard, a shield against danger in the dark night, and a spear against evil in silence!"

Teng!

The third candle, symbolizing Crane, began to burn.

In the unflickering candlelight, he picked up the silver knife and, imitating Old Neil's actions, consecrated it with spells, coarse salt and clean water.

Then, he let the spiritual energy he had stored up burst out from the tip of the silver dagger and merged with nature.

Holding a silver knife in his hand, Klein walked around the bedroom (where the bed was, he used his knees instead of his feet), allowing the invisible barrier to seal the place.

The light from the street lamp outside the window disappeared in an instant, but the crimson still shone quietly.

Klein returned to his desk, picked up his quill, and used his spirituality and ink to draw spells and symbols to avoid disaster.

After doing all this, he put down what he was doing and dropped a drop of hydrosol, flower essence and essential oil from several bottles onto the three candles respectively.

Sizzle!

A light mist filled the air, giving the room a mysterious feel.

After burning several more herbs one by one, Klein took a step back in the mixed aroma and recited the spell corresponding to the "interruption" ritual magic:

"Goddess of the night, higher than the stars, and older than eternity;"

"I pray for your favor;"

"Please look upon one of your faithful followers."

"I pray for the power of crimson;"

"I pray for the power of adversity and fear;"

"I pray that you can free your faithful believer Selina Wood from the contamination of evil and the entanglement of disaster."

"I beg you to wait a moment for the unfortunate girl."

"O Moonflower, herb of the red moon, please pass your power to my spell!"

"O Deep Sleep Flower, herb of the Red Moon, please pass on your power to my spell!"

After reciting the spell, Klein closed his eyes and repeated it seven times in his mind.

Seeing that there was nothing unusual on the altar, he grasped the silver dagger again and stepped back step by step until he reached the door of Selina's bedroom.

He tapped his chest four times, drawing a crimson moon, then turned around and raised the silver dagger.

Spirituality once again gushed out from the tip, cutting out the shape of a door on the invisible wall.

Klein knew that at this point, even if he opened the door, it would not affect the tranquility and holiness of the altar.

He pulled out his silver pocket watch with a vine pattern, checked the time, and rehearsed the subsequent procedures.

In the living room on the second floor.

Elizabeth, trembling slightly, looked up at the wall clock from time to time, silently calculating the time in the light of two gas lamps.

"Almost done," she whispered silently, and sideways glanced at the lively girl with burgundy hair. The other girl had deep dimples, a bright smile, and could chat well with every friend around her.

But the more this happened, the more frightened Elizabeth felt. The cold and terrifying "Selena" in the mirror seemed to always exist in her mind and was hard to forget.

We can’t wait any longer! We must act now! Elizabeth stood up suddenly, and in the surprised eyes of everyone, she stuttered and smiled:

"Selena, I, I have a surprise for you. Here, come out with me for a moment."

"Really? Didn't you give the birthday present?" Selena turned the mirror upside down and stood up in surprise.

"The surprise is, there won't be any, any signs." Elizabeth felt that she had absolutely no talent for acting.

She said nothing more and walked towards the living room door first, with Selena following behind her with a puzzled smile.

Melissa watched her two friends leave, and her brows unconsciously frowned:

Elizabeth is so weird today

After she met Klein, things got even weirder.

She suddenly ran out just now, saying that she was in a hurry to go to the bathroom, but why did she look so panicked?

Selena's bedroom door.

Elizabeth took a deep breath and said to the girl in front of her:

"Let's go into your room."

"Elizabeth, I feel that you are very nervous and scared. Why?" Selina looked at her friend in confusion and found that her body was shaking uncontrollably.

"Excited, yes, excited!" Elizabeth glanced at the mirror in Selina's hand, turned halfway, and knocked on the door, one long and two short.

"Why are you knocking on the door?" Selina was even more confused.

With a creak, her bedroom door opened, and Klein, wearing a black tuxedo and a half-high silk hat, appeared in front of the two girls.

"Surprise? This is a surprise?" Selina's mouth was half open, her mind was confused.

At this moment, Klein suddenly reached out, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her into the room, leaving Elizabeth stunned.

At the same time, Klein pointed out his silver dagger, gushing out spiritual energy, and quickly filled the door-shaped passage that had been cut out.

The invisible spiritual wall sealed the room again, hiding Selina's screams inside.

Bang!

Klein slammed the door shut and ran back to the desk without even looking at Selina.

The girl with burgundy hair stopped screaming, raised her head and looked around the room.

Her eyes quickly turned cold, her skin turned paler, and her ten fingers quickly grew sharp white nails.

At this time, Klein had already returned to his meditative state. He dropped a drop of moon flower essential oil on each of the three candles and recited aloud:

"O High Crimson Lord, great Queen of Misfortune and Terror;"

"I pray for your favor;" ..

"Take care of your lost lamb Selina Wood!"

As the spell was chanted, he picked up the imitation parchment and held it close to the candle that symbolized the supplicant.

Woo!

He felt the cold wind behind him and the heavy force coming at him.

The parchment was set on fire, and Klein threw it into a small silver bowl. He ducked down in preparation and dodged the fatal grab.

Woo woo woo!

The sound of the wind became extremely fierce, and Klein felt that his spiritual power was surging out like a tide, and he couldn't stop it at all.

He saw the parchment in the small silver bowl burning into a peaceful dark darkness and heard the sound of something heavy falling to the ground behind him.

Plop! Bang!

With almost no interval between the two sounds, wisps of invisible black-green gas were poured into the small silver bowl and disappeared into the illusory deep darkness.

Klein half-rolled to the side, stood up, and pulled out the revolver from his armpit. But when he looked closely, he saw Selina, a cute girl with long burgundy hair, falling to the ground, and the silver-plated mirror shattered into countless pieces on the blanket.

And those fragments no longer reflected Selina, but only the ceiling and Klein's silhouette.

At this time, Klein, who had not turned off his spiritual vision, saw that the evil black and green in Selina's aura had completely disappeared. Everything returned to normal, but it seemed much weaker.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he felt a sharp pain in his brow and head.

The stinging pain spread throughout his body, making him want to roll on the ground.

Klein clenched his fists suddenly. The veins on the back of his hands stood out, all black, like moving worms.

At the same time, he heard silent shouts and whispers that tore his own spirit apart.

It took him more than ten seconds to recover, and he felt cold sweat on his forehead and back.

"The ritual magic just now drained my spirituality and almost caused my extraordinary power to get out of control?" Klein roughly assessed the situation.

This incident also made him realize that he seemed to have digested a lot of the residual spirit in the potion, because if calculated based on the initial strength after taking the potion, he felt that he would not be able to hold on at all and would directly collapse into a monster.

The “acting method” is still very effective. Klein tapped his brow and wiped the sweat off his forehead.

He turned to face the altar, tapped his chest four times, and spoke loudly:

"Praise the goddess!"

Then he extinguished the candles one by one and quickly cleaned up the altar.

After casually placing the items back on the desk, he used the silver dagger to remove the sealed spiritual wall.

Woo!

The sound of the wind faded away, and the silence faded. Klein breathed a sigh of relief, feeling deeply frightened by what had just happened.

"If I hadn't rehearsed the process and completed the ritual smoothly, things would have been troublesome. And I still don't know who my opponent is or who the enemy is. Fortunately, well, fortunately, the room was carpeted and my tumbling didn't damage my clothes."

He shook his head and reached out to open the wooden door of Selina's bedroom.

"How is it?" Elizabeth took two steps back and asked nervously.

Klein looked at her frightened expression, took off his half-high silk hat, and smiled gently:

"I have corrected her mistake in the magic mirror divination, and the matter is resolved."
