Why did this guy shave his beard? How do you go out to meet people tomorrow?
——Angel's first reaction was this.
When her brain truly understood the meaning of the person in front of her, she subconsciously took two steps forward, blinked her sour eyes, pursed her lips and carefully observed Klein's face.
"It feels weird without a beard..." After a moment, Angel suppressed his inner joy and frowned and commented, "Are you 'Faceless' now?"
"I was promoted at noon."
Klein spoke with a strange tone, first loud and then suppressed, as if the voices of several different people were strung together, while the flesh, flesh and skin on the face were squirming as if they were dissolving, undergoing subtle changes. The cheeks were slightly bulging, the chin drooped slightly, and small thorns quickly grew around the mouth, quickly forming a thick beard.
In less than a second or two, Klein transformed back into Sherlock Moriarty. Compared with Nighthawks a few months ago, Backlund's private Detective paid attention to nutrition, but lacked regular exercise and inevitably gained some weight.
"Where is the body? Can it only be Face Changing?"
I have also used Beyonder Characteristic of "Faceless" for disguise, so I am not surprised by such a change, but Angel is a little curious: Is the real Sequence 6 "Faceless" only able to do this?
Hearing her question, Sherlock's smile grew wider. He took two steps back, took off his hat and bent down to the sofa. When he raised his lowered head again, it had changed into a different look.
Delicate fair skin, perfectly proportioned facial features, a slightly pointed chin, tightly pursed thin lips, and a hint of curiosity in his purple eyes.
If it weren't for the fact that her pale golden hair was still growing longer, Angel would almost have thought that she was looking in the mirror, looking at another version of herself.
He can even imitate his expression... but his height is still a little different.
As soon as this thought came to mind, Angel heard the snapping sound of bones and ligaments being stretched. Sherlock·Angel's height arched up a little, making up for the missing few centimeters.
At the same time, his figure also changed accordingly. The chest of the shirt under the tuxedo became tighter, the waist became looser, and his hips also changed in shape.
"This is the limit. The body shape cannot be changed too much, and the gender cannot be actually changed..."
After explaining in Angel's voice, Sherlock took a few seconds to change back to himself - Backlund's self.
Looking at the shirt that was a little loose due to the two body changes, Angel was about to laugh when he suddenly realized:
"Didn't your tuxedo and shirt use the illusion of 'Magician'?"
"Of course it's specially prepared. It has a, um, sense of ceremony?"
Adjusting the wrinkled clothes and shaking the skirt of the tuxedo, Sherlock answered with a smile.
He spent 10 pounds on this costume, which was slightly more expensive than the one at Tingen City, but the effect at this time made him extremely satisfied.
But before the deliberately handsome posture lasted for a second, Sherlock was pulled by Angel's hand to the guest room next to him.
"Wait, wait..."
He guessed what was going to happen, but was completely unprepared. He panicked and shouted twice subconsciously, but felt a sense of astonishment in his heart.
Why does it feel like the roles are reversed!
But when he saw Angel taking off "Madness Ring" and turning back into long pale golden hair, he finally closed his mouth.
"Change back."
After Sherlock sat down on the bed, Angel pretended to be vicious and ordered.
"What... okay..."
After a moment of daze, Sherlock quickly used Faceless's ability to change back to his beardless self. Just as he was about to continue saying something, he was pushed back by a strong force and fell directly onto the bed that he had become very familiar with these days.
Why is it the same as the first time...
Such an idea popped into his mind uncontrollably.
Then, soft lips covered his mouth, and smooth but comfortable arms wrapped around his neck.
After a long time, the lips parted.
"Welcome back, (Klein)."
A thin whisper came to his ears, as if he was worried about being heard. The last name was expressed only by the movements of his lips, and no sound came out.
But this almost inaudible call brought endless temptation, which made him recover from his surprise, and he was immediately ready to deal with the next "battle".
Faceless, who had just been promoted, was very proud and the other party's unexpected initiative gave Klein inexplicable confidence. He suddenly wrapped his arms around Angel's slender waist, rolled around and exchanged positions. He looked at her eyes filled with tears and the corners of her smiling mouth, sniffing the faint body fragrance on her body, and slowly moved closer to her body.
During this period, Angel had some crazy behaviors caused by the desire accumulated in her body, and some coquettishness that was forced to be covered up by "acting", but only today, she completely and actively showed the ultimate temptation of "Demoness of Pleasure".
Klein knows that this is her response to "reunion" with herself.
So today, he's going to be on top!
Because Klein had just been promoted to Sequence 6 and Spirituality was not stable enough, Angel did not continue after releasing his full joy. And when she finished cleaning, put on the home clothes that had been left here for a long time, and walked out of the bathroom, the joy of "seeing" Klein again gradually faded away.
Sherlock, who also changed his shirt and vest after taking a shower, wore his gold-rimmed glasses and grew a thick beard again. He sat on the coffee table next to the oriel window and poured coffee, leaving the best seat to Angel.
Seeing this, Angel sat on the single sofa with a smile on his face, took the coffee and took a sip, then frowned because of the burn.
"Isn't this what you asked me to come over?"
After Sherlock also took a sip of coffee, Angel asked about the reason for today's meeting.
"Ahem, you didn't even give me a chance to speak..." the energetic Detective responded with a dry cough, but quickly regained his composure under the sharp gaze of Angel, "The most important thing is of course my promotion. I have already shown you my newly acquired abilities. In addition, Beyonder Ability, who originally belonged to 'Magician', has also improved."
"So, the most important improvement is the ability represented by the title 'Faceless'?"
Angel asked curiously, the improvement brought by her Sequence 6 is more than that, but in terms of practicality, Faceless is indeed superior to most of the Beyonder Ability she has seen. In addition, "Magician" can change clothes through illusion, which is countless times more convenient than "Madness Ring".
"Yes, divination, clown, Magician, and now I can Face Changing, I feel like I am a whole circus..."
Sherlock smiled helplessly and asked:
"What about you? Pleasure... I mean, how is the progress?"
Talking about this just after getting out of bed feels a bit weird, as if there is a profit factor mixed into the relationship... Angel cursed.
But she can distinguish the priorities. The top priority now is to digest Potion as soon as possible and improve her control over Beyonder Ability. Therefore, she did not hesitate, but nodded directly and answered:
"After these few days of acting, I feel that I am only just a summary of the key points of the acting before completely digesting Potion. I asked another Demoness of Pleasure that this progress is far beyond normal. She believes that the higher the Sequence of the person being acted out, the better the feedback effect will be..."
After listening to Angel's narration of Lola's analysis, Sherlock also frowned, thinking about this problem, but quickly gave up his efforts - he was indeed just Sequence 6, and he had just been promoted.
You can't say that you are special because of that mysterious Gray Fog, right?
After decisively skipping this topic, Sherlock quickly thought of another thing:
"Do you remember the friend I mentioned last time who was cursed to death? Talim Dumont. At that time, we thought it was Demoness Sect and the royal family. But just three days ago, Prince Edessak, the one we suspected to be related to the Demoness Sect, Prince, found me., asked me to investigate his death as a friend of Talim, and even provided his personal belongings, hair, and flesh. Using them, I conducted a divination to eliminate interference. As expected, he died from the curse of a certain Demoness, but I couldn't see his appearance. I could only see that she was carrying a Sapphire Ring."
Sapphire Ring?
Angel's brain, which had been a little groggy from drinking hot coffee, woke up like an electric shock.
Demoness, Sapphire Ring...
She immediately thought of Demoness of Pleasure and Trissy who were unable to break away from the Demoness Sect's arrangement.
After describing the appearance of the ring worn by Trissy in detail, Sherlock's face became serious.
"It looks like this is it. The murderer I saw in the divination should be Trissy, and she is next to Prince Edessak. The latter actually asked me to investigate the cause of Talim's death... Is he calling to catch the thief, or is he simply unaware that there is such a dangerous person hiding around him?"
"The cause of Talim's death is also clear. He should have fallen in love with Trissy and tried to take her away from Prince. This is consistent with Trissy's own ideas went against the arrangements of the Demoness Sect and 'that', so under the control of these forces, Trissy personally killed his only hope of escape, which is really ironic."
Angel took over the conversation and analyzed.
"Whether Prince was kept in the dark or he himself participated in these conspiracies, please don't get involved anymore," she looked at the worried Sherlock and warned carefully, "After your contact with Prince, you may even be in the sight of the people behind the scenes. If you don't get out as soon as possible, you will be 'arranged' again soon."
"Don't worry, I have no intention of doing my best to investigate this Prince in depth. But I can't be overly aggressive, otherwise it will make people suspicious that this incompetent Detective has a bigger secret," Sherlock squeezed out a smile and replied, "Prince has arranged personnel next to my house, which is called protection, but is actually surveillance. I will pretend to conduct corresponding investigations in the past few days, and finally submit a report on Talim's normal death. Anyway, this is what the royal family told Prince Edessak. He can't shoot me because of my incompetence and cowardice."
Although they both had different Anti-Divination methods, the two of them still did not dare to mention "0-08", and they were even less willing to communicate in depth about Prince Edessak's commission. Instead, they quickly changed the topic.
"Finally, let's talk about 'Lady Despair'."
Looking at Sherlock's serious face, Angel realized that the other party had put the most important things last.
