Chapter 252 Black Box

Last time, the maid Miss Nigret taught her to take the initiative, and the effect was quite good that time. Her relationship with classmate Droste seemed to have changed because of some contact.

As time goes by, their relationship doesn't seem to get any closer. Does that mean... they still need to work harder...

Phoenix bit her lip, and the furry tail at the tailbone trembled slightly, swaying back and forth, making her look a little uneasy.

Next to Phoenix, a few young men happened to pass by, hugging each other in the glow of the setting sun.

"Oh, today is April 27th, and it will be May soon. Time flies so fast." A young boy murmured unconsciously while looking at the bright light in the sky.

"Yeah, we're about to graduate, and we don't know when we'll see each other again." Another calm and steady young man who looked older also spoke up.

"I used to be so ambitious, but now I'm still just an ordinary person." With another sigh, the calm young man slowly left.

The young boy shouted behind him in a loud voice: "It's okay, I'm Wang Teng, I have the potential to be an emperor!"

"Yes, yes, my son Wang Teng has the potential to be an emperor."

"Go away!"

The voice gradually faded away, and the two figures walked forward with their arms around each other's shoulders.

Phoenix's big, furry, flaxen ears twitched, and she suddenly caught a familiar word.

It's April 27th... so... it seems that time is coming...

Phoenix clutched the corner of her clothes nervously and looked in the direction of Droste who had completely disappeared.

I used to spend the time at home, but this year... I feel like I have to carry it all by myself...

Not good...!
……

Study, study, revise, and revise.

These words kept repeating in Droste's mind. He wished he could draw out another scoring item: [Master Skill Template], and find another great writer to directly snatch the information in his mind.

The kind that has a one-step writing method, or "Elementary School Student's Full Marks Composition for the College Entrance Examination".

In this way, Droste can completely deal with Albedo. Otherwise, I really don’t know how to let a failed novelist teach another person how to write a book.

But since the other party has asked for it, then just keep moving forward and working hard. Even if I can't teach you, I can just make up a few words and try to deal with it.

Droste was thinking about this question in his mind as he walked to Albedo's shop.

In Albedo's room.

On the other side, Albedo was looking at the banging box in front of her with worry.

"Bang...bang bang..."

An exquisite black box shook from time to time, making banging sounds, which looked quite weird, as if some monster was about to sweep out from it.

This black cowhide box is made of the leather of the Black Rock Bull from another world.

According to rumors, the Black Rock Bull is a creature with immense strength, extremely tough hide, and a miraculous suppressive ability that can suppress most magical spells. In other words, it can ignore magical attacks.

Its strength is such that it cannot be cut by ordinary swords or knives, making it extremely difficult to deal with. It takes hundreds of people to hunt one.

Now, this box made of exquisite and deep cowhide can't even hide the strange things inside.

It just lies there quietly, its deep black color seems to be able to swallow all the light, and it seems to contain endless depth and mystery, making its charm irresistible.

This happened to be the rare treasure that her younger sister Nigret had brought over earlier, but for some reason, it was particularly noisy today, rummaging around in this box for quite some time, making Albedo distracted. Even her writing state was not very good.

Albedo tugged at her hair in annoyance, then glanced at the golden lock.

The seal that Nigret had placed seems to be unstable. How about opening it myself and seeing what's going on?
Her thoughts moved, and Albedo also started to move.

She waved her fingertips, and a faint yellow light surged up, completely wrapping up the golden lock. The yellow and golden fluorescence began to gradually thin, impact, and dissipate.

"Om..."

"boom--!"

There was a tiny breaking sound from the lock, and the exquisite black leather suitcase gradually opened. The vibration became smaller and smaller, as if something was lurking, ready to break out of the ground.

But Albedo took a glance, with no expression on her cold face. As a princess of the Phantom Demon Clan, she had seen many rare treasures, and this kind of thing was completely useless to her.

It's just a piece of rope.

But... it was not until the golden light gradually brightened in Albedo's sight that her pupils shrank and a different expression finally appeared on her face.

It's called... Panic.

……

"Knock knock knock... Is Miss Albedo home?" Droste looked up at the bedroom. The sky was a little dim, and there was a flash of golden light.

"Knock knock knock... Miss Albedo, please come down and open the door."

Droste knocked several times, but still no one responded. He didn't know whether it was Albedo or Nicoled upstairs, but the light indicated that there was someone upstairs, just not talking.

What’s going on? You don’t even open the door. Are you trying to show off your power to me…?
Droste touched his head, somewhat confused about the situation.

Just as I was about to push open the half-open glass door, I suddenly heard the nervous voice of "Nikulade" from upstairs.

"Droste...Lord Droste, please come up directly."

"You're at home, why didn't you say so earlier?" Droste responded, decisively pushed open the glass door, and then walked up the stairs.

The surrounding environment seemed to be dim, with only the light on in the door of the room in front.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk."

Droste shook his head as if in relaxation, then slowly knocked on the door, and then pushed it open. The scene inside the door shocked him a little.

……

Time went back to a few minutes ago, and Albedo was standing there, watching the exquisite leather suitcase begin to shake.

At this time, Droste had not yet entered the store, so Albedo had no idea that he was coming.

“Why is this rope that Nigret brought back more active than I thought…?” Albedo murmured to herself, somewhat puzzled.

It’s not like she had never seen this rope before, but now it seemed a little too lively. After the seal was removed, it suddenly became quiet.
