"Meow."
Wensa stretched his body and let out a low shout, trying to muddle through, but soon found that Angel was unmoved, so he stopped pretending and said directly:
"I didn't expect you to be promoted to High Sequence so quickly. I thought it would be at least a year later..."
"Tell the important point."
Angel interrupted these pleasantries.
Of course, her tone was not as cold and ruthless as her words. After all, the black cat messenger in front of her also helped her for a fee when she hunted Gazer. And judging from the fact that it could compete with the headless messenger Reinette, it at least had the strength of Demigod. It was not a rational approach to completely anger it.
"The point is, I'm evaluating whether to include you in our organization. Promoting to 'Despair' on your own is just the first step."
Wensa's tone no longer deliberately imitated the pronunciation of a cat, and he spoke word by word.
organize? Could it be "Demoness Sect"? But from the conflict between me and Katarina, it should know that I can't join them... Angel thought for a moment, and was about to ask, Wensa continued:
"As an apology for what happened before, I can answer you three questions."
Sorry... is it because it sent the letter to Katarina without the consent of me, the contractor?
Angel thought about it and did not ask questions immediately. Instead, he summed up three important questions in his mind, and then asked:
"What is your specific relationship with Katarina?"
"I thought you had already seen the clues from our eye color and hair color," Black Cat Wensa's blue eyes looked at Angel, reminding her of several Demoness in an instant, "She and I have a direct blood relationship."
The black cat is related by blood to Demoness?
Angel's brain fell into a momentary stasis, but she immediately realized that the "cat" in front of her was probably a human before leaving Physical World and becoming Spirit World Creature, or to be more specific, it was a descendant of Katerina Pelle... Judging from their family's experience, it was very likely that it was a son.
"So, you are actually..."
She asked subconsciously, but then she realized that she couldn't waste the question and swallowed the second half of the sentence.
But this also gave her a better understanding of the power of "aggregation". Even if she was looking for a messenger in Spirit World, she would always find a descendant of Demoness of Unaging. It's no wonder that Katarina can easily find Wensa to send letters. They may have daily contact with them.
"Second question, she first wanted to kill me and then helped me. What was her purpose?" Angel continued to ask.
"It was you and your companions who boarded Tracy's ship first and attacked her. Katarina was just self-defense." Wensa defended his mother without hesitation, "I have mentioned her purpose of helping you. I have been here because I see more hope in you... and this is closely related to your Sequence. If you can become a real 'Unaging' Demoness, you will have the opportunity to have equal dialogue."
"'Unaging'? You should know the promotion ceremony, right? Is it possible for me to be promoted in the short term?"
Angel couldn't help but asked.
"The ritual is not 'necessary' for promotion. You have already experienced it twice and you should understand the key. This is not the last question. Let's continue."
Wensa replied lazily, but in the end he generously gave Angel an extra chance.
I didn't think of it as a question in the first place... Taking a deep breath and remembering its previous answer in my heart, Angel slowly asked the last question:
"Who is 'Demoness Sect' collaborating with in the human trafficking, and what is the purpose behind it?"
This question involves the truth about Ince Zangwill, Demoness Sect and Great Smog, and is what Angel is most concerned about at the moment.
"To be precise, most of the human trafficking is not completed by the Demoness Sect. They are only responsible for covering up the whereabouts, and finally the End's 'Great Smog' to make the missing people reasonable. The main people who cooperate with them are some people from Loen Military However, some members of the royal family also participated. The specific cooperation content was originally handled by 'Nightingale of Despair' Panacea. After she disappeared, 'Black Saintess' could not send other personnel, so it was handed over to Katarina, so only she knows."
Sure enough, both the military and the royal family are involved. No wonder military personnel frequently appear in the clues of human trafficking, and Edessak, as Prince, can be regarded as a scapegoat... But Panacea is only missing, not dead? Who is "Black Saintess"?
One question brought up more questions. Angel couldn't help but ask again, but Wensa flicked his tail as if he was impatient and said:
"The question time is over. If you want to know more information, wait until Backlund. Maybe you can meet Katarina and let her answer it in person."
That "Unaging" Demoness is also Backlund? By the way, it said that Katarina took over the mission of Panacea and continued to cooperate with the military and the royal family...
Angel opened his mouth and wanted to ask how he knew he was going to Backlund, but when he thought that the other party was a Demigod Demoness cat who was closely connected with Spirit World and was proficient in divination, and it was Spirit World Creature, he suddenly felt that this was not a problem.
Seeing that she was speechless, Wensa raised its tail, turned around, and made a gesture of leaving, but turned back after a moment, looking at Angel with its blue eyes.
"If given the chance, would you like to join a less extreme 'Demoness Sect', or rather, 'family'?"
Join Demoness Sect? After Great Smog, I'm afraid they and I only have naked hatred and hostility... Angel chuckled and was about to answer when she suddenly discovered that Wensa's words contained a word she had heard before: family.
She immediately recalled the conversation with Mobet in "The Travels of Grosell". When the other party mentioned Fourth Epoch, Demoness were not the "Demoness Sect" who were currently acting in extreme ways, but an ordinary organization that was called "Witch Family" by the outside world and was connected by blood and marriage.
Could it be that Wensa was once one of them?
She looked intently at the table and found that the black cat had disappeared at some point.
It's running really fast. What is it trying to avoid? Is the so-called "family" a branch of Fourth Epoch hidden in the Demoness Sect that continues to this day? Demoness of Unaging Whose position is Katarina on?
Black Cat Wensa answered a few questions and left more questions, which made Angel feel a little dizzy. She sighed softly and pulled out a note with the formula "Unaging" Demoness Potion from a notebook, her eyes staying on the last line.
"...Promotion Ritual: After a long period of time, take Potion with a different mentality than your age."
"Longzeer's ashes have been buried. Sharron, Ian and Isengard have all been contacted. My contacts from the 'Sherlock' period have basically returned to my hands. Of course, if you want to enter the upper class circle of Backlund in a short time, the experience of a butler who has served the nobles is a must... Well, I will hire one tomorrow and ask him to help me find a luxury house... Ha, a luxury house."
While counting his few banknotes, Klein walked around the luxurious suite of Hillston Borough's high-end hotel, relieving his somewhat anxious mood.
He prefers to call it "fear of being close to home".
This is a normal reaction after returning to Backlund after half a year...
Suddenly, a soft whisper of a young woman came to Klein's mind. As if he had finally waited for something, he quickly returned to the bedroom, carefully constructed Wall of Spirituality, walked four steps backward, recited a familiar mantra, and entered the palace in Gray Fog.
"Sure enough, it's Angel's message."
As expected, he saw that the crimson stars belonging to "Empress" continued to expand and contract.
Spreading Spirituality away, Klein soon heard Angel's deep prayer.
"Dear Mr. Fool, please 'give' the contaminated Night Emblem that I kept with you to Mr. World, and also quote the following words.
"'Unaging' Demoness Katerina Pelle has probably arrived at Backlund. The cooperation between the Demoness Sect and the military will be continued by her. Although there are no organized sect members there, I think you already know how strong a Sequence 3's Demoness is, so be careful.
"After you get Night Emblem, ask Mr. Azik to clean up the pollution on your behalf. When you return this characteristic to the church later, you can try to exchange it for the opportunity to read Antigonus Family Notebook, so you don't have to break into Chanis Gate Stealing."
Angel's bowed figure in prayer disappeared from Gray Fog, and a faint smile appeared on Klein's face.
Although he had the idea of borrowing Antigonus Notebook using the relationship between Angel, Goddess Church and Arianna before going to Backlund, he did not expect that the other party had already planned it in advance and used the precious Nightwatcher Beyonder Characteristic to exchange it.
This is Beyonder Characteristic of Demigod. As long as Mr. Azik is allowed to crush the Holy Emblem and remove the pollution, a Sequence 5 can step into High Sequence and become Potion Main Materials of Demigod.
You know, after a long period of planning and waiting, Ince Zangwill used 0-08 to cause countless tragedies in Tingen, provoking endless pursuit by the church power. The purpose was just to obtain such a power from Saint Selena's Ashes.
But she was willing to use it in exchange for the possibility of my promotion...
Klein's eyes slowly swept across the long bronze table. Next to the "Card of Blasphemy" of Roselle, three neatly placed pictures with different images painted on them, was the picture taken by Angel The "Parasite" glove that sacrificed here, and the Night Emblem that was probably contaminated by "Artificial Death" that never had a chance to be cleaned.
The gloves and the "Demoness" and "Red Priest" cards were all sacrificed to "Fool" by Angel at the suggestion of Mr. Azik before returning to the North Continent.
Under Klein's ingenious arrangement, she was able to exchange these "contributions" for more convenient "permissions". Not only could she store dangerous items next to Fool through sacrifices, but she could also accept gifts at any time when she needed to use gloves and playing cards. She also received convenient blessings such as "Sea God" and "Paper Doll Angel".
This is also the reason why Angel can use "The Fool Express" tonight.
"Oh, she must not have thought that I was giving it to myself..."
Klein chuckled, took the holy emblem that was extremely quiet in Grey Mist, and suddenly glanced at the "Demoness" card next to it.
In the Spirituality perfusion room, among the books slowly spread out in front of him, portraits of the emperor appeared one after another, gradually transitioning from the cold assassin to Demoness in female attire, and finally stopped at the page Sequence 3 "Unaging".
Looking at the ceremonial requirements for promotion, "Fool" was speechless for a long time.
