In the mouth of Beyonder who knows more about High Sequence, "Demigod" is High Sequence Beyonder that summarizes True God, but generally speaking, Sequence 2 will be called Angel. Only Sequence 4 and Sequence 3 will be referred to by this word.

Of course, a more appropriate name is "Saint".

What Leonard sensed at the party held by Mr. K was none other than Saint, who was probably at Sequence 4.

This was not because of his sharp perception, nor because the opponent had revealed his flaws, but because of the Pales Zoroaster that was parasitic in his body.

Therefore, when Shermane opened his eyes and curiously asked how he knew, Leonard could only use the official Beyonder's perception to get past it.

"If other High Sequence Beyonder hadn't tried to attack Mr. K, then this Demigod hidden in the party would most likely be one of the five Saint of 'Aurora Order'... They At least Sequence 4 is generally not directly responsible for the specific affairs of a certain city, but supports his subordinates Oracle at any time according to the mission. If they appear in Backlund, it most likely means that 'Aurora Order' will take big actions in this city..."

"Sequence 4...Saint..." Shermane muttered and repeated, his eyes a little confused, "Did Mr. K anticipate our actions and arrange an ambush in advance?"

"Not necessarily, maybe it's just a coincidence. Maybe this Saint has been hiding in the dark for a long time, but you haven't noticed it before... Of course, I don't think he is targeting me, otherwise we would have no chance to meet here. That Saint can easily deal with an entire 'Red Gloves' team, unless we also have Demigod to compete with it."

Leonard continued, and his expression immediately turned serious:

"Anyway, this operation is cancelled. I have to go back to the church to report the matter. It is not up to me to control whether the surveillance will continue or whether Saint from a certain church will take over... As for you, you will continue to attend the party in the near future to avoid being discovered with abnormal behavior and being suspected."

Shermane nodded and watched Leonard leave in a hurry. He put on his cloak and returned to East Borough's residence. He set up Wall of Spirituality, took out his own Magic Mirror, lowered his head and recited the somewhat unfamiliar and difficult to pronounce Honorific Name:

"Crimson and Secrecy's Shadow, Empress Traversing the Five Seas, Essence of Calamity in the Mirror... I have something to report to you..."

At three o'clock in the afternoon on Monday, the members of Tarot Club once again appeared in the palace above Gray Fog, having their regular weekly gathering in front of Mr. "Fool".

Since there are not many transactions recently, everyone directly entered the free communication link with the permission of Mr. Fool.

"Moon" Emlyn couldn't hide his excitement and said that he had been released from Church of Evernight's "dungeon". The reason was of course that Loen was attacked from both sides by Intis's official invasion, and he did not want to push Sanguine, the ethnic group with Angel's existence, to the opposite side. Therefore, not only Emlyn, but also some of his tribesmen who were also detained were also released one after another.

For many days, he could only taste the animal blood sent by Nighthawks. As soon as he walked out of Chanis Gate, he couldn't wait to go to the nearest hospital and bought some Spirituality-rich human blood for testing through less legal means to meet his needs as Sanguine.

But after seeing the tragic conditions of many disabled soldiers and civilians who were sent back from the front line in the hospital, Emlyn couldn't help but donate a huge sum of 100 pounds to a blond noble girl who was collecting donations. It feels quite painful to tell the story now.

For some reason, when he heard this, "Empress" Miss tilted his head and looked at "Justice" Miss beside him, as if he thought of something.

Very good Psychological Suggestion, let Sanguine have an empty wallet... "Fool" Klein saw everyone's movements clearly in Gray Fog, chuckled secretly, and commanded "The World" Gehrman to speak in a deep voice:

"A commission is released. You can choose whether to join or not depending on your own strength, but I hope this will help you to take your strength to the next level."

What he meant was that the rewards were rich, but it also meant that it was very difficult, so you have to act according to your ability... "Hermit" Cattleya, who had just been promoted to "Mysticologist", was a little excited when he heard it. Considering that he was the only Demigod besides "The World" and "Empress", the strongest pair, he took the initiative and said:

"What do you need us to do?"

Gehrman chuckled and glanced at the other equally curious participants:

"It's very simple, 'Mystic Saint' who hunts Aurora Order, Butis."

Aurora Order again?

This idea came to the minds of other people who were listening to the commission.

They are not surprised that Mr. "World" and even the followers of Mr. "Fool" who he actually represents have repeatedly targeted Aurora Order. However, the "Saint" of this secret organization are all genuine Saint, and they are all Sequence 4 or above.

What's more, Aurora Order is backed by Rose Redemption, believes in "True Creator", and belongs to a powerful organization with True God covering its head. It can be solved by Tarot Club, these Mid Sequence Beyonder plus "Hermit" and one Demigod.

"With all due respect, why don't you do it yourself, or let 'Empress' Miss help?"

"Justice" Audrey asked curiously. At the same time, he quickly scanned the other members with the corner of his eyes and found that "Empress" looked indifferent, "Magician" was a little panicked, and the rest of the people were similar to him, with their expressions and movements revealing curiosity.

It seems that "Empress" Miss has known about this for a long time, and Fors should also be involved... Is this related to the Abraham Family?

While her thoughts continued in her mind, "The World" had already opened her mouth to answer:

"I have been dealing with a certain Angel recently, and it is difficult to spare my hands to deal with Butis. As for 'Empress' Miss, if she takes action directly, it may cause a strong reaction from Aurora Order, such as... the arrival of a certain King of Angel."

King of Angel... Everyone's expressions were stern, and those famous names flashed through their minds, guessing which of them was sitting under "True Creator".

In addition, Mr. "World" can actually "deal with" a certain Angel?

Although it sounds like he is at a disadvantage and can only avoid the battle, this is Angel... Could it be that after "Empress", "The World" has also been promoted to Sequence 2?

In fact, it is not Angel who is following me, but Archangel of Sequence 1... Feeling the shocked and confused gazes of everyone, Klein muttered in his mind, and asked "The World" to give a brief feedback in time:

"I have been promoted to Sequence 3."

Sure enough... "Hanged Man", "Justice", "Hermit" and others all sighed inwardly, but they were not surprised.

After a while, "Hermit" Cattleya spoke again:

"As far as I know, 'Mystic Saint' Butis is Saint of Apprentice Pathway, and has a powerful Sealed Artifact. If you and 'Empress'Miss can't take action, so we alone have little hope... Even if Butis can be seriously injured, he can Teleportation leave at any time, and can resist the tracking of divination.

"Furthermore, even if 'Empress' Miss does not join, there is a high possibility that Butis will seek help from 'True Creator' in critical moments."

Regarding her reasonable doubts, "The World" nodded and explained in detail:

"In this matter, you can try to seek help from 'Queen Mystic', and this battle is expected to occur in Backlund. 'True Creator' will not and cannot come directly. If only one of his Angel comes, 'Empress' Miss will be responsible for solving him.

"In addition, everything will be witnessed by Mr. 'Fool' to avoid the worst case scenario."

Seeking the Queen's help... is he suggesting that I can prepare powerful spells based on fairy tales in advance? And if this hunting takes place in Backlund, there is really no need to worry about the arrival of the evil god. After all, Backlund is the base camp of Evernight and Storm, and "Empress" can stand behind us, which is enough to make people feel at ease... Cattleya quickly calculated the feasibility of the action in his mind, and finally looked up at Mr. "Fool" at the top of the long table.

Having this person as a "secretary" is what everyone can rely on.

Moreover, the words of "the world" indicate that the one who really wants to deal with "Mystic Saint" is Mr. "Fool".

"What's the reward for this commission?"

After thinking for a moment, Cattleya turned to ask another important point.

"The right to choose your loot, and enough knowledge for you to digest the current Potion within a month."

The answer of "The World" made Cattleya's heart beat.

She originally expected that it would take at least a year to play and digest Sequence 4, and that was with the Queen's help!

"I will prepare first and try my best, but there is no guarantee of success."

In the end, she made up her mind to take the risk and take action against another Saint who was the same as her Sequence.

Sure enough, everything was as expected by Klein, so it was my turn next... Angel, who was watching "Hermit" and finally couldn't bear the temptation and accepted the commission, chuckled secretly, looked at Audrey beside him, and asked in a searching tone:

"'Justice' Miss, how are you digesting your 'Dreamwalker'? Is there any hope of being promoted again in the near future?"

Me? Why do you ask this...Audrey was startled, thinking of the "commission" just now, he immediately understood, nodded and replied:

"Recently, I have been entering other people's dreams at night and insisting on acting. If it's fast, it takes half a month. If it's slow, I can completely digest it within two months."

"If you can complete the role before the operation against 'Mystic Saint', I can sell you the complete formula of 'Manipulator' and Beyonder Characteristic, so that you can also have the opportunity to participate in this operation."

Comes with recipe!

Audrey was very happy. She had already ordered the Sequence 4 Potion formula from Hvin Rambis at "Empress" as Main Materials's Beyonder Characteristic, but recently because he is obsessed with charity, he has invested almost all his working capital in Student Aid Fund, and he no longer has much hope that he will be promoted to Sequence 4 in the short term.

But if "Empress" Miss is willing to make such a concession, then she can advance part of next year's pocket money from her father or brother, buy the materials and formulas at the same time, and be promoted to half-human Demigod before the new year!

The price is just to work harder to perform and cooperate with Ms. "Hermit" to hunt "Mystic Saint".

Anyway, the people in Aurora Order are all Lunatic and destructive maniacs, so there is no psychological pressure to deal with them... She thought happily and nodded without hesitation in agreement.

Seeing the two female members getting a share of the "Mystic Saint" body, "Hanged Man" Alger suddenly discovered that this matter seemed to be a commission issued by "The World", and "Empress" Miss agreed, but in fact...

... But it is an overall leap in Tarot Club's strength!

What about me... Something clicked in his mind, and he realized that he had to say something.
