Girl Hero: Revenge on Goblins!
Chapter 162: D59. Dream Traveler

Chapter 162: D59. Dream Traveler

After closing the car window, Hero napped for a bit.

When she woke up, she felt refreshed and ready to think again.

’A potion that turns magic creatures into humans...’

Hero lay on her back on the long bench of the car, her long hair fanning out behind her and draping partially to the floor, gently swaying.

Her emerald eyes gazed at the unchanging ceiling of the car, yet reflected in her eyes were other things.

Hero silently recalled the content of that stone inscription.

[Due to the invasion of non-human origins, it has been decided that the Evilness for magic potion materials needed is (90+ requires a human soul)]

The script carved on the rocks at the bottom of the lake greatly differed from the common scripts used in the Kingdom today.

Though written beautifully, Hero had never studied the evolution of scripts, thus unsure if it was unique to Sirens or a historical common script.

However, though there were differences, some similarities with the common script remained.

Being somewhat knowledgeable in calligraphy herself, Hero found she could comprehend some of it.

’The needed materials, firstly soil mixed with sweat, and a maiden’s kiss?’

The maiden blinked her emerald eyes, puzzled.

She had memorized it last night without understanding its meaning, and only now realized, weren’t these materials a bit strange?

It didn’t sound evil at all, and even had a dreamy quality, completely different from what she imagined.

And now Hero also understood why she subconsciously felt there was something wrong with this magic potion formula.

As a Beast Spirit Mage, her ability to transform into magic creatures involved the natural law of survival of the fittest—seizing and dominating the informational essence of the creatures.

During this process, though, she neither trapped the souls of the deceased nor needed to drink the blood from corpses.

Nevertheless, this was still an act achieved through killing.

By personally killing, destroying the existence of magic creatures, letting all their information flow into her own body, like a book being burnt after reading.

Although the script disappears and the book turns to ash blown away by the wind, the knowledge on it is grasped by the reader.

Thus, by the same logic, the Human Transformation Potion used on magic creatures might also require a similar process.

That is, the killing and destruction of humans.

However, even though she hadn’t grasped all of it, Hero was certain now that there’s no such evil step in this magic potion formula, and it even doesn’t require human blood.

Furthermore, it must be a specifically added restriction; the creator of the magic potion, though not human, refrained from using slaughter to accomplish human transformation.

Although Hero is neither an Alchemist nor a Magic Alchemist, she understood the difficulty in creating this potion formula under such conditions.

Even someone like Sister White Snake could not transform directly into a humanoid, indicating how challenging it was to achieve human transformation.

From a utilitarian point of view, aiding human transformation through slaughter should have been the most efficient method.

Then why did this magic potion still add to its difficulty?

Could it be that the creator of this potion is a highly kind creature? Was she just being paranoid?

Hero was baffled by these thoughts.

Moreover, what reason could there be needing such a peculiar step as the kiss of a maiden—

[Located in the Exotic Realm (Beyond the Border♛—Alternate Plane)]

D100=d100(10)=10

[The Exotic Realm is beyond the border, undergoing a difficulty check in thinking (Intuition Critical Success-30, ancient fairytales +20, our wise Hero +10, below Border knowledge 40 succeeds)]

D70+30=d70(7)+30=37

[Decision Successful]

Suddenly, like a flash of thunder, a burst of insight struck Hero.

She abruptly sat up, her long hair floating around as it did, and the Snake-shaped Hairpin extended its tail, helping her tie up her hair.

’Could it be that using evil methods to achieve human form will result in being unable to assimilate among humans?’

Paying no mind to the hairpin’s initiative, Hero mused to herself.

After transforming into a magic creature, she wouldn’t simply be regarded as a companion by other magic creatures.

Though there were Gleaming Scale Serpents like those who actively sought her for mating, there had also been snakes that challenged and attacked her when she led the Snake Group.

And humans, regardless of strength, are beings of intelligence, not easily accepting each other.

The Church even possesses spirit-based detection spells.

Although Sister White Snake did not mind her existence as a Beast Spirit Mage, even the most bizarre and extreme church sects couldn’t accept a magic creature who transformed through slaughter.

If the magic potion was prepared using bloody and evil methods and the creature refused to behave, it’s likely that within three days, the human-transformed magic creature would be singled out from the crowd.

What kind of magic creature would have such a need to blend into the human world, getting humans to lower their guard?

Hero hurriedly pulled out "Border Folklore," a book her grandfather had given her.

[It is about—]

1. A dreamcatcher woven from feathers and spider silk ♛

2. Forbidden mixed-race

3. Mud dolls from the swamp

4. Ghost of varied colors

5.1

6.2

7.3

8.4

9. "Holy" day of birth

10. Critical Success/Extreme Failure
