Chapter 132: Congratulations to Kanor for Her New Kitchenware
In fact, even if Kanor can’t open it, Lolth is confident she can do it herself.
She has completely figured out how this magical formation operates—although it is very different from the mainstream magical formations and practices on the continent, for Lolth, it just takes more time to open.
If all else fails, she can always break it open!
She had not opened this box before simply because she forgot about it. If she had known that there was such a powerful magic circle on it, Lolth would have eagerly opened it to take a look!
Now, it seemed that this item had a special connection with Kanor, so Lolth naturally felt a bit shy about competing with her student for it.
After receiving Lolth’s instructions, Kanor boldly stepped forward to start unlocking it.
Although she had already begun to learn magic, the wooden chest was very old, and the design of the magic circle was extremely ancient, so Kanor did not notice the magic circle’s presence.
Moreover, since even her own Master Lolth said that, Kanor did not think much about it. It was as if she was simply opening the door to her own storage, and she easily unlocked the wooden chest.
Lolth raised her eyebrows slightly; she could sense that the chest’s recognition magic had indeed "recognized" a certain quality of Kanor’s soul and had opened up.
"Indeed, all geniuses seem to have a background."
Orphaned, with a mysterious origin, and quite gifted… it would be hard to explain without some background.
However, Lolth was too lazy to dig into Kanor’s origins. After all, the little girl had no bad intentions, and discovering the truth could possibly bring her negative consequences.
Moreover, investigating this mysterious being is a very troublesome task— even if they find out the truth, it might just replace one set of troubles with an even bigger one.
So, as usual, Lolth would not spend her energy on such matters.
While Lolth was pondering the background of her cheap apprentice, Kanor also opened the wooden box.
A strange and faint magical wave emerged, different from any mainstream magic found in the continent and the abyss, carrying a quiet and ancient aura from inside the box.
Kanor looked inside the box and couldn’t help but show a puzzled expression.
"What is this…?"
The turtle and Lolth saw Kanor’s reaction and couldn’t help but lean in to look inside the box.
Soon after, these two also displayed confused expressions.
Inside the box was a floating, silver reflective sphere, the size of a frying pan.
The curved surface shone brightly and was entirely silver, with a texture like some kind of liquid metal, looking just like a huge mercury ball.
Most importantly, the magical energy from this thing was very special.
The magical energy fluctuated strong and weak, cycling every five seconds, alternating like it was breathing.
"What is this thing, is it Director Ken’s magical costume…?"
Lolth joked, her mouth twitching, as she glanced at the turtle next to her.
The turtle scratched its head and innocently said, "Don’t look at me, Lord Succubus. I already told you, none of us can open this thing’s box."
Kanor didn’t notice the conversation between Master Lolth and the turtle; she seemed completely captivated by that object now.
Just as the turtle said, it seemed like this thing was truly meant to belong to her!
She couldn’t help but raise her hand, wanting to touch the mercury ball.
Kanor was a humble and moral good girl most of the time, and she did not think that something she saw for the first time "must belong" to her.
The thought that came to her now was purely a feeling that rose from deep within her soul.
The silver liquid metal ball also seemed to have such a feeling.
When Kanor reached out her hand towards it, the surface of the metal ball actually quivered slightly.
As if trying to break free from some kind of restraint, the surface of the metal surged and moved closer to Kanor.
"Lord Succubus, are you sure you don’t need to stop your apprentice?"
When the turtle saw this scene, it asked with some worry.
"Ah… it’s fine."
Although Lolth did not fully understand what this thing was, she could sense that it seemed harmless to Kanor.
Even if there is… Lolth can handle it.
With such confidence, she quietly watched Kanor and the metal ball.
The changes in the metal ball grew more intense, rising and falling more and more — finally, a bit of the metallic liquid touched the tip of Kanor’s finger.
In an instant, the entire metal ball seemed to have been "released," flowing backward towards Kanor, wrapping around her fingers, and gradually spreading to her forearm, shoulder, and even her chest, as if covered in a layer of metal!
Moreover, the silvery metallic liquid seemed to be absorbed by Kanor’s body, slowly entering beneath her skin.
When Kanor came to her senses, she did not feel afraid; instead, she looked at her hands with great curiosity and then turned to Lolth.
"Master Lolth… this seems to be… magical creations? It feels like it has substance, but most of it is made of magic!"
Hearing Kanor’s description, Lolth nodded.
"It’s probably some kind of alchemical product; it looks like equipment… I really don’t know much about ancient civilization creations, so I should take some time to write to someone in the relevant department at Demon King Castle — they’ve also unearthed magical civilization relics in the Mercury Ruins…"
As Lolth said this, she took a small step forward. At that moment, all the metallic liquid in Kanor’s body had been completely absorbed.
With a "plop," the last drop of metallic liquid entered Kanor’s body, as if something had fallen into a box.
Kanor looked at her hands with a curious expression.
"Can you still feel them?" Lolth asked.
"Yes… They feel like they are inside me and also in another space, as if a new space has opened up in my body," Kanor said, trying to raise her hand. A silvery metallic liquid appeared out of nowhere from her palm. "And I think I can summon and control them!"
Soon, the pile of metallic liquid in her palm began to change—not just its shape, but even its color and texture seemed to shift!
Eventually, the pile of metallic liquid transformed into a kitchen knife, just like the ones in Lolth’s kitchen.
Quickly, with Kanor’s thought, it changed into a frying pan!
Finally, Kanor stretched out her hands, and with both hands, a wok and a spatula appeared at the same time!
