Mirror Person tilted his head like Angel usually did, and asked in confusion:

"What's the use of telling you in advance?

"As the beloved of 'Sefirah Castle', one of the means for Lord of Mysteries's resurrection, Klein Moretti will definitely approach those people or things that can promote him because of Law of Beyonder Characteristic Convergence, even if there is no With your help, you can be promoted step by step, and this situation is also what other God and King of Angel hope to see. Well, maybe except Amon, who is Klein's direct competitor.

"In this case, knowing that Klein is 'Fool' will only bring him more trouble and expose his identity prematurely. And once some of the information you know about 'Great Old One' is known to Klein who is not Angel, it will actually harm him."

"Then why did you remind him that after becoming Angel, he can tell me that he is 'Fool'?" Angel asked.

"Because I'm worried that if he doesn't tell you the true identity of Fool after he is promoted to 'Miracle Invoker', you will raise your butcher knife and point at the 'ancient god whose strength has not yet been fully restored'."

Mirror Person replied in a teasing tone.

Angel felt his cheeks were a little warm, and his eyes wandered away from Mirror Person.

Because she really thought about it.

After knowing that Klein could promote Sequence 2 to "Miracle Invoker", and that Mr. Fool did not seem to have retrieved all three "Mystic Seer" characteristics, Angel had imagined Through the method of Klein being promoted to Sequence 1, in addition to looking for traces of Zarathus and "Half Fool" Antigonus, Mr. "Fool" seems to be an optional target.

Moreover, He is particularly concerned about Klein, and seems to want to turn him into Marionette, the vessel for his own resurrection...

"If he hadn't told me the truth in time, maybe I would have really suggested that he take action against 'Fool'. On the one hand, it would prevent future troubles forever, and on the other hand, it would also open the way to Sequence 1, or even Sequence 0..."

Angel admitted his thoughts generously.

"I am the one who knows your thoughts best." Mirror Person showed Angel's familiar smile again, "So I asked him to tell you the truth about 'Fool' at this time, so that there will be no more secrets between you... except for that matter, of course."

As she said that, she pointed to the depths of "City of Calamity", and Angel's eyes turned accordingly, knowing that the place the other party was pointing to was the location of the body of "Angel Gray".

That was the secret that Angel had hidden the most and was least willing to be known by Klein, even after Klein said he didn't care about her past when the identity of "Cole Granger" was revealed.

Thinking of this, Angel withdrew his gaze and changed the topic as if to escape:

"What do you think of Evernight Goddess's actions?"

Although she, like Klein, could understand at a higher level Goddess's attempt to promote Great Old One before Apocalypse's arrival, she still found it a bit hard to accept his deliberate weakness in letting Loen fall into the flames of war.

Sure enough, Mirror Person also frowned, shook his head and said:

"Although if we don't do this, the casualties will only be higher, the battle with gods will be more difficult, and it may even lead to the death of many God at the same time, but my thoughts are the same as yours, and I think He shouldn't be like this.

"Of course, it turns out that God of Combat has fallen, Evernight Goddess has obtained all Adjacent Pathways's Uniqueness and a copy of Sequence 1 Characteristic, and has met all the conditions for 'Great Old One' except Sefirah.

"Next, in addition to having the authority over the two Adjacent Pathwayss, what He is most likely to do is to ask you and Klein to find the tributaries of 'River of Eternal Darkness'."

"Tributary?" Angel asked, and immediately thought of this Sefirah and other products except "Chaos Sea" and "Sefirah Castle" Like Sefirah, they are all sealed in the Western Continent. At most, only a small part of the power penetrates to the outside as the barrier weakens, just like the mirror image of "City of Calamity".

And if Goddess masters this part of the power, he can enter the process of promotion to "Great Old One" in advance. Before Apocalypse comes, the Western Continent barrier will be opened to quickly accommodate "River of Eternal Darkness".

In this way, the earth will be able to fight against the nine Outer Deity.

Seeing her frown gradually loosen, Mirror Person continued:

"Phoenix Ancestor who was the first to master 'Death' Pathway Gregrace, as well as Salinger who set off Pale Calamity, are trying to master the power of the 'River of Eternal Darkness' tributary, so this power is likely to be hidden deep in Underworld, or 'City of the Dead' Calderon... Of course, even if you and Klein is protected by the power of Sefirah. It is too dangerous to approach this tributary. That is not the Chaos Sea aura remaining in 'Giant King’s Court', but the real power of Sefirah. Unless you are promoted to Sequence 1, I do not recommend you to take this risk."

Sequence 1...Angel was speechless for a moment.

Her path to promotion as Demoness has been blocked by "Primordial Demoness". There is a slight chance for "Red Priest" Pathway, but she instinctively does not want to choose to jump to this Pathway, as if doing so will cause something bad to happen.

"You mean 'Red Priest'?"

After a moment, she still asked.

As for Klein's choice of Sequence 1, after excluding "Fool", Zarathus naturally became the easiest target, and this timid Archangel might smell the danger, take the initiative to retreat, and never appear again.

Mirror Person slowly shook his head and said:

"'Conqueror' is not a good choice. It will not only bring changes to the body, but may also trigger some kind of horrific changes... Strange, I always feel that I have forgotten something important."

Forgetting... couldn't be done by Adam? I have always found it strange. The conversation between Adam and Goddess that I recalled when I was promoted mentioned that "Sefirah Castle" would ignore their modifications to my memory, while Adam was in Enmat Harbor The changes that made to my memory could be detected and erased by "Sefirah Castle". This means that Goddess used some kind of power that was enough for "Sefirah Castle" to ignore it to help Adam?

Angel Thoughts flashed through his mind.

Mirror Person continued:

"In short, since Goddess has 'invested' in you, there must be corresponding solutions, and Adam has probably been promoted to Sequence 0's 'Visionary' with the help of this magical war that conforms to the trend of the times. He will also take subsequent actions, but they may not necessarily be beneficial to us.

"For you, the most important thing is to digest 'Catastrophe' Potion. Whether you use the characteristics of '0-01' and Conqueror to reach Sequence 1, or use some trick to promote 'Apocalypse', this is the foundation."

Angel nodded. Her "Catastrophe" Potion was just a little bit away from being completely digested. Perhaps as long as a Catastrophe spread to a wider area, the feedback provided would be enough for her to solve this problem.

In addition, the to-do items that she had accumulated before but temporarily left behind because of the war and the trip to "Forsaken Land of the Gods" also came to mind.

That was not the funds in the notebook in the hands of housekeeper Ribak that repeatedly bottomed out and were remitted from unknown accounts, nor was it the upper-class social life of Backlund that quickly recovered after the war. Of course, the wedding that had never been decided upon after getting engaged to Klein also entered her mind for a moment, but she knew that this was not the time.

First of all, after the fall of God of Combat, there were only six God who moved the Kingdom of God to Astral World to block the Original Creator barrier, and Evernight Goddess has just received His authority and is unlikely to immediately assume the responsibilities of Two Gods, which means that the barrier will be significantly weakened and the power of Outer Deity to penetrate the earth will be enhanced.

The hunt for "Mother Goddess of Depravity" believer Nast and the annihilation of the Southern Continent "Mother Tree of Desire" believers need to be put on the agenda. Although these can get help from the official Beyonder, the key part may still require the efforts of her beloved Sefirah.

What's more, the attack on "Rose School" is related to her and Klein's commitment to the headless messenger Reinette. The latter helped the two of them a lot when they were weak, and now is the time to pay back.

Secondly, the war is over, and there is no need to risk offending Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun by going to Intis. Angel is preparing to attack Trier underground. Special Mirror World conducts an exploration, which will not only solve the Mirror Person threat faced by the Tamara Family, but may also find clues to "School of Truth".

Finally, the only known whereabouts of the "Conqueror" characteristic was also sealed inside Trier of Fourth Epoch. The ancestral evil spirit of the Sauron Family has returned to Intis for a while, and there may be some new gains.

In addition, she still has to wait for Goddess to formally make a request, asking her to find the "River of Eternal Darkness" tributary at the expense of the many help He has given before. Although this matter is dangerous, it is also helpful for Angel to truly master the power of "0-01". After all, in addition to being contaminated by City of Calamity, this flag is also smeared with the power of "River of Eternal Darkness" by Death Salinger.

Looking at it this way, I'm quite busy... She smiled self-deprecatingly, continued to chat with Mirror Person for a few words, and followed Mirror Tunnel to leave this huge but lifeless city.

Looking at Angel's retreating figure, the smile on Mirror Person's face, which looked and dressed exactly the same as hers, disappeared, revealing a somewhat troubled expression.

She looked far away, and outside the city limits that had expanded after City of Calamity accommodated Limon City Civic Square, a thin mist briefly dispersed under the impact of the volcanic eruption.

There is a city where houses have completely collapsed, and dilapidated and deserted city streets stretch continuously from the outskirts of the abandoned city to the volcanoes on the horizon and the cracks in the ground.

"This is...Apocalypse?"

she murmured.

Backlund Saint George Borough, "Church of the God of Steam and Machinery" is at the headquarters of Loen, underground at Saint Hillern Cathedral.

The messy brown-haired Ikanser Bernard led two members of "Machinery Hivemind" into the core area where dangerous items were sealed.

Machinery Hivemind, who was on duty, immediately stood up, said hello to Ikanser, and then asked cautiously:

"Deacon, should I take that Sealed Artifact?"

Inside Church of Steam of Backlund, the name Ikanser is almost associated with "that Sealed Artifact".

"Yes, I need to ask a few questions to prepare for future actions."

Ikanser replied with a focused expression, trying not to think about how he was perceived by other Machinery Hivemind members.

"Action?"

The other party's attention was indeed attracted, and he no longer cared about the rumors about Ikanser itself.

"Joint operation to eliminate cultists, together with Church of Storms, Church of the Evernight Goddess and... Church of the Earth Mother."

Ikanser touched his stubbornly raised hair and replied, pausing when he read out the last name of the church.

He never imagined that Church of the Earth Mother, who was attacking Loen Kingdom before, would now cooperate with Storm and Evernight?

This makes it difficult for Church of Steam believers who remained neutral during the war and thus retained their qualifications to preach in Loen's country to understand.

Maybe you can ask Arrodes. Anyway, it can't hurt me anymore, because all my secrets have been exposed long ago... He thought, watching the colleague on duty open the seal and walked into the small room where "that Sealed Artifact" was stored separately.

After a moment, an exclamation came from the room:

"No, Arrodes is missing!"

On a steam train that had just departed from Backlund and was heading towards Midseashire Constant City, Klein, wearing a black robe and an ancient ceremonial hat, dressed as Wandering Magician, sat on his own seat and placed a small silver mirror covered with black cloth on the narrow table.

The young couple sitting opposite him cast their eyes, one at a time to look at his clothes, and the other to look at the simple silver mirror that had the curtain lifted and was decorated with a black gemstone like an eyeball on each side.

Seeing the undisguised curiosity on their expressions, Klein smiled slightly, turned his silver mirror towards them, and said:

"I am Wandering Magician, good at fulfilling other people's wishes and Magic Mirror Divination. Do you want to give it a try?"

This was obviously a sales pitch that made the young man frown, but his younger wife showed an interested look. Under the guidance of Klein, she touched the surface of the silver mirror three times, causing the surface of the mirror to show a rippling brilliance.

Soon, a line Loenese appeared on it:

"You awakened the great Arrodes, so you have to fulfill one of my wishes."

Klein's expression froze, and he stretched out his hand to support Arodes's Mirror.

The text above flickered and changed slightly:

"Hello, do you have any questions that need to be answered?"

The young woman looked sideways at her husband, hesitated for a moment, and asked:

"I want to know, does Mars have other women in his heart?"

The expression of the young man next to her changed immediately. There was no doubt that his name was Mars.

Why did we encounter such a problem when we opened today... Klein was a little worried about really exposing the cheating incident, but also a little curious about the answer, so he looked at Arodes's Mirror.

A line of silver-white text appeared on the mirror:

"Apart from his mother, the only woman in his heart is you for the time being."

Mars immediately snorted and raised his head, while his wife hugged his arm apologetically, with a satisfied smile on her face.

At this moment, the white words on the small silver mirror disappeared, and blood-red words appeared:

"Now, it's your turn to answer the question. Do you still think you should marry your richer and more powerful boss instead of..."

Before the words were fully displayed, Klein grabbed the mirror and stuffed it back into his wide cuffs.

When Cons is here, I will give you to Angel and let you be her gossip emotional master mirror... He thought bitterly, and before the couple in front of him started to quarrel, he quickly snapped his fingers and said:

"There's something wrong with that mirror, so what are your wishes that need to be fulfilled?

"This time I don't have to charge."
