"Sorry, I'm a little late."
Taking off his hat, Azik Eggers showed a hint of apology on his bronze face.
"When I arrived at the battlefield, I found that the Spirit World Ship had already joined the battle. The battle situation was already one-sided. In order to avoid conflict with her, I did not show up... Oh, I have thought of a lot of things recently. The grudge I made with her on the Fourth Epoch may not be easily eliminated."
Angel and Klein looked at each other.
There is an irreconcilable historical conflict between the two "big guys" who can help a lot at critical moments. This makes Angel, who holds the contract with Anne, and Klein, who can use Copper Whistle to contact Azik at any time, feel a little embarrassed.
They politely did not continue the topic, but told Azik the details of this morning's battle.
"'Mother Tree of Desire'... I have never heard the name of this God. Maybe in Fourth Epoch, He has other names, but I can feel it from a long distance. In addition to the desire of Indulgence, the Angel who projects power also has... reproduction?"
Azik frowned and took a long time to find the right adjective.
Reproduction... This reminded Angel of the extravagant and evil night in General Oravi Island's private residence.
"In addition, if the scale you found on the battlefield is indeed related to 'Angel of fate' as you said, then it is beyond my scope. However, I think it is best not to keep it with you for a long time. You can try giving it to another 'Snake of Fate', or listen to his advice."
"Is it because of 'aggregation'?"
Klein asked immediately after listening to Azik's suggestion.
"Yes, it seems that you also understand one of the most anticipated and feared events among High Sequence. The higher the Sequence, the more Beyonder Characteristic condensed, and the stronger the mutual attraction between Pathway. This does not appear as a real force, but a coincidence, a fateful encounter."
Azik replied with a smile, the mole on his ear looming.
"The same goes for the other items you harvested. The 'Marauder' glove should be derived from the characteristics of Demigod, and the 'Parasite' of Sequence 4. Although I don't recall the relevant knowledge, my intuition tells me that using it will be quite dangerous."
"Isn't it okay to do Anti-Divination?"
Angel asked reluctantly.
This is a Demigod grade Mystical Item. Even in major churches, it can be labeled with the Sealed Artifact number prefixed with "1".
"There are too many ways to bypass this measure. Of course, it is not impossible to use it. The Demigod you killed should have been using it for a long time... but be careful not to use it unless necessary."
It can only be sealed with Wall of Spirituality at ordinary times, and then taken out for use at critical moments... This will greatly reduce its value. Maybe selling it at a good price is the destination of "Parasite"?
Angel sighed secretly, pushed the two Card of Blasphemys "Demoness" and "Red Priest" towards Azik, and asked:
"What about them?"
"There are two more 'Card of Blasphemy'..." Azik picked up the two cards curiously, and his eyes stayed for a moment on the portrait of women's clothing Roselle on the "Demoness" card, " Although they do not have Beyonder Characteristic, they are of extremely high status and will also attract the Extraordinary Characteristic Aggregation of the Pathway. Either seal them up or simply write down the Potion formula and throw it away."
He chuckled, meaning that the latter suggestion was just a joke.
Sure enough, Mr. Azik also knows "Card of Blasphemy". Maybe he has seen Mr. Fool's "Black Emperor"... Angel nodded and decided to seal the two cards later or sacrifice them to Mr. Fool for safekeeping. He would definitely not be afraid of the danger brought by Aggregation Effect.
She was a little eager to give it a try, imagining how the new "Card of Blasphemy" placed next to Mr. Fool would attract curious looks from other Tarot Club members.
"By the way, Mr. Azik, regarding what you said last time, use powerful attacks to destroy the contaminated Beyonder Characteristic or Mystical Item, let it re-aggregate, and get rid of the pollution..."
Angel suddenly thought of the "Nightwatcher" Sealed Artifact that he had sacrificed to Mr. Fool but never had the chance to return to Church of Evernight. He tentatively asked Angel, who had not yet recovered his full strength, for a solution.
"Well, I think I can give it a try now. Although I haven't recovered all my strength, I should have some confidence in the pollution related to 'death'."
She was not disappointed, Azik thought for a moment, nodded and answered.
It's a pity that Sealed Artifact is still with Mr. Fool, so I can only ask Him to "give it" in advance next time... By the way, you can directly ask Mr. Fool to give it to Mr. Azik, so you don't have to go through me and the problem can be solved faster!
His eyes lit up, and Angel was about to propose to Mr. Azik, when Klein suddenly interrupted as if he remembered something:
"Mr. Azik, the ring I mentioned to you last time that was suspected to be left behind by 'Ancient Death', I tried to divine Mystical Item that fell on the ship and found that it is still valid. We can look for it at any time."
Death Ring... is it the one on the finger of "Hell Admiral" Ludwell? If it is not just an appearance, then I am afraid that it is indeed related to Mr. Azik and can awaken a lot of his memories... Angel forgot what he was going to say for a while, recalling the battle with Ludwell and the strange ring worn by the other party, and made some guesses.
Azik was also attracted by this matter. He looked hopeful and said with regret:
"I still have some things to be busy with, which will allow me to regain more memory and strength. When it's all over, I'll get the ring again, because I have a hunch that it will take me to the depths of the Berserk Sea, where the answers to everything may be hidden."
Having said this, he turned to look at Angel:
"Finally, congratulations on your promotion to High Sequence. In my memory that has not yet fully recovered, this is one of the fastest promotions among people."
With that said, he took the top hat and put it on, stood up, and walked into Spirit World in the same color block as when he came.
"Whenever you need me to try out the crushing properties, you can contact me through Copper Whistle."
As soon as he finished speaking, the color of the living room returned to normal.
Ah, my characteristics...
Angel sighed lightly, feeling that Azik was walking a little hastily.
Beside her, Klein also sighed lightly, but with a hint of joy.
It almost revealed that Mr. Azik was not "the beloved of Fool" at all... From this point of view, my first real beloved was actually Book World, who was forced to recite the "flame" Danitz of Fool Honorific Name?
He secretly glanced at Angel beside him, and seeing that she didn't notice, Klein immediately opened his mouth to talk about other topics:
"So, the matter here is almost settled. I need to go back to Backlund for the next trip. It may take a few months. Are you... okay?"
Since it was a temporary topic, his words were a little incoherent, which attracted the curious eyes of Angel, who thought for a moment and nodded:
"Our identities must not be used before. After Great Smog, Irene and Sherlock will definitely be on the watch lists of major organizations. Aurora Order and Demoness Sect will also regard us as a thorn in their side. If we want to return to Backlund, we have to change our identities."
She is actually quite reluctant to let go of the identity of "Irene Watson", not only because she has been in business for a long time and has a healthy social relationship, but also because of the "Baroness Landon legacy" mentioned by Sevillea during her accidental trip to Trier.
If that part of the stock had not depreciated, the total assets would probably be close to 100,000 pounds. Even with the Sequence 4 properties and Mystical Item I just acquired, all my assets would not be that much...
But Angel knows that this is obviously a trap left by Sevillea and Demoness Sect. As long as "Irene" accepts this inheritance, she will be exposed to the public, and what awaits her is probably endless harassment and attacks.
You know, Demoness Sect has True God, so there must be more than one Angel.
Klein is also thinking about the issue of a new identity. It is not difficult to purchase identity certificates. There is a similar business at Damir Harbor. However, how to design a reasonable identity background so that you have the opportunity to contact Church of Evernight so that you can implement subsequent plans is the top priority.
His eyes suddenly looked at Hidden Holy Emblem on Angel's wrist.
What if we use the relationship between Angel?
Late at night, Angel suddenly woke up from his dream.
Fighting and getting promoted in the morning, busy escaping from Bayam in the morning, acquiring an identity in the afternoon, and busy sealing and sacrificing items at night. She originally thought she would have a good dream, but she didn't expect to fall into a nightmare on her first night after becoming Demigod.
She dreamed of a deserted, smoke-filled city with a broken moon above her head and a cracked city in the distance. She dreamed of crawling out of the basement of No. 6 Daffodil Street, Tingen City, covered in blood. She dreamed of the cold words Adam spoke with a warm smile. She dreamed of Klein falling into a deep sleep and she could not wake him up no matter what...
Wiping the cold sweat on her forehead, she shook her head to get rid of the horror Nightmare in her mind. She looked to her side and saw Klein gently closing her eyes, breathing steadily, with a smile on her lips, sleeping quietly.
"Is it because Spirituality has not yet stabilized after promotion, or did those 'Affliction' impress me too deeply during the performance and promotion process?"
She whispered to herself, and finally her thoughts stopped at the last terrifying dream fragment.
Is that fantasy, or prophecy?
Angel stretched out his fingers and gently touched Klein's bare shoulders. He was worried about disturbing him, but hoped that he would respond immediately.
"Well..."
Klein seemed to be aware of it and twisted his body to the other side.
With "Seer" as Spirituality, if there is any movement around him that may cause harm to him, he will be awakened immediately. Since he is still sleeping, it means...
... It shows that he absolutely trusts me...
Sweeping Nightmare in his mind into the trash, Angel suddenly stretched out his hands and hugged Klein from behind, laughing at his sudden struggle.
