Chapter 506: Audrey and the Psychology Alchemy Society

Friday, 3 PM, Earl Hall's Residence

Audrey was learning psychology from her teacher, Ms. Islant Ossisleka.

During a break, Ms. Islant gave Audrey a meaningful look.

"You all may leave; I have something to discuss with Ms. Islant," Audrey said to her maids.

Understanding the cue, the maids left, leaving only Susie by Audrey's side.

Ms. Islant, seeing that only she, Audrey, and the golden retriever were present, sat up straight and began to speak slowly, "Regarding the Dreamwalker potion recipe you requested last time, we have received a response."

Her eyes were complex. She had watched this young lady, Audrey, rise through the ranks, even surpassing herself.

"I hope it's good news," Audrey said with a graceful smile.

"If you want the Dreamwalker potion recipe, go to the furniture merchant Humphrey's house between 2 PM and 4 PM tomorrow. Someone will contact you there."

"I will be there on time."

Audrey's eyes sparkled like gems, momentarily mesmerizing Ms. Islant.

Despite having met Audrey several times, Ms. Islant was still often captivated by her beauty.

At such moments, she was glad to be a woman. Otherwise, encountering such a beautiful woman and being unable to marry her would be the most painful thing in life.

"The path of the Extraordinary is fraught with difficulties. The faster you go, the more mistakes you might make. Please be careful," she couldn't help but advise.

"I will. Thank you for your kind reminder."

After the brief conversation, the psychology lesson was almost over. Sending off Ms. Islant, Audrey felt quite good.

Although she had already learned the Sequence 5 Dreamwalker potion recipe from the fallen Mind Dragon, she couldn't gather all the extraordinary materials and had to rely on the Psychology Alchemy Society.

Once she successfully advanced, she would be just one step away from becoming a demigod.

In the Tarot Club, besides the Hermit who had advanced to Sequence 4, the most powerful was Mr. World, who was also at Sequence 5.

She was finally catching up.

In a good mood, Audrey hummed a tune while walking and even had extra dessert at dinner.

Back in her room, Susie asked curiously, "Audrey, didn't you already know the Dreamwalker potion recipe?"

"Susie, you don't understand. It doesn't stop me from being happy again."

Susie nodded, somewhat understanding, and then said uncertainly, "Audrey, I think I've fully digested the Hypnotist potion."

"..." Audrey's smile paused for a few seconds before she said, somewhat guiltily, "Susie, how did you digest it so quickly?"

"Maybe because I often hypnotize myself."

"..." Audrey was silent for a moment. "Susie, that's very risky."

"Audrey, I often can't sleep at night and can only fall asleep this way," Susie explained. "I've also secretly helped Earl Hall sleep when he couldn't."

"... Susie, you're getting bolder."

Audrey was shocked. Fortunately, she had almost digested the Hypnotist potion herself, just a bit slower than Susie.

Considering Susie didn't need to sleep at night and had twice as much time, Audrey still felt she was faster.

Saturday, 2 PM

Audrey arrived at the furniture merchant's house on time.

To prevent any accidents, she wore a Time Reversal Talisman given by Mr. Hastur and a protective pendant for contacting him. She had also reported her actions to Mr. Fool.

After praying to Mr. Fool, a golden pillar of light appeared before her, visible only to her. An angel bathed in golden light with twelve pairs of wings descended.

The angel touched her gently with wings sculpted like flames, blessing her before disappearing.

Angel's Embrace.

This was a blessing from Mr. Fool's angel.

Fully prepared, she took Susie and her maid Annie and rode a carriage to Humphrey's house.

Upon arrival, Audrey got off the carriage and had a servant ring the bell.

After a while, Ms. Islant opened the door and led Audrey to the living room. Susie and Annie were taken to the guest room by a servant.

In the living room, Ms. Islant placed her hand on the doorknob and made a gesture for Audrey to enter.

Audrey took a deep breath and walked in alone, while Ms. Islant stayed outside and closed the door.

In front of her was a single sofa where an elderly man sat quietly.

The old man wore a shirt, vest, and suit with striped blue-gray trousers and a dark red tie. His hair was completely white, and he had a gentle and elegant demeanor.

Audrey recognized him. He was Hvin Rambis, a royal advisor and a member of the Psychology Alchemy Society's council.

Audrey didn't hide her surprise, maintaining the composure of an actor.

"Are you surprised?" Hvin Rambis smiled gently and bowed. "It's a pleasure to see you, Miss Audrey."

Audrey let her surprised expression linger for a few seconds before saying, "I didn't know how to address you."

"Just as usual, no need to be formal. This isn't our first meeting."

Hvin Rambis smiled and invited Audrey to sit.

"I remember two years ago, you discussed Berman's moral philosophy and Conci's pragmatism with me. Your erudition left a deep impression on me. I'm glad you could join us."

Audrey maintained a faint smile. If not for the high-ranking observer in front of her, she would have complained inwardly.

"Don't be nervous. Our Psychology Alchemy Society is dedicated to researching the mind. We favor academic discussions, and every member is free to express their views. This is our philosophy."

Listening to Hvin Rambis's gentle voice, Audrey relaxed a bit. But in a blink, she found herself in a mental world.

Above was the spiritual sky, filled with seven pure lights of knowledge, reflecting the spiritual realm.

Below the spiritual sky was a deep, dark sea, with islands of minds floating on it. Beneath the sea lay the collective unconscious.

Audrey could sense her mind island here.

In the depths of the unconscious, the waters parted, revealing a stone staircase from the ocean depths. A figure emerged from the unconscious.

Hvin Rambis, now far from his gentle demeanor, had a cold, scrutinizing gaze.

He came from the collective unconscious to Audrey's mind island, his skin partially covered in gray-white scales, and his eyes golden.

His cold eyes fixed on her mind island, and he began to ask questions.

Partial Mythical Form.

Audrey understood that Hvin Rambis wanted to verify if she was hiding anything.

In the mental world, even the slightest lie would cause subtle changes.

Fortunately, Mr. Fool's angelic blessing and Hastur's pendant shielded her from his influence.

Still, she needed to appear dazed to avoid suspicion, as she wouldn't normally be self-aware or think in this situation.

Like a pre-set mental puppet, she answered Hvin Rambis's questions honestly.

With her precautions, Audrey answered every question without raising suspicion.

He was likely feeling proud of his extraordinary abilities.

Audrey silently thanked Mr. Fool and Mr. Hastur.

She also felt disgust towards Hvin Rambis. He not only asked about her rapid advancement but also wanted her to spy on her father and other nobles.

Worse, he suggested she accept the advances of Ruen princes, seemingly eager for her to marry into the royal family.

If not for needing the Psychology Alchemy Society's help in gathering extraordinary materials, she would have immediately confronted him.

"Given your status and environment, you will forget me, remembering only Hilbert, Islant, and others. Communicate through them for any matters."

"If something significant happens, you will instinctively visit me under the guise of discussing psychology."

"When you enter my room, your lost memories will be restored."

After Hvin Rambis finished, Audrey, like a puppet, walked to the door and left.
